When I answered the phone, a magnetic voice sounded in my ear, "Zhizhi, have you eaten?"

Zhizhi, who was nestled in Shi Tingfeng's arms, suddenly felt her heart race and hurriedly said, "Ah~ Oh, I've eaten. Big brother, are you off work? I'm busy right now. Why are you calling now?"

The man on the other end of the line knew from her incoherent speech that she was not available to answer the phone, so he asked a few words of concern and then hung up.

Shi Tingfeng vaguely heard a man's voice, but he couldn't make it out clearly. When he heard Zhizhi call him "Big Brother," he assumed it was his brother-in-law calling.

"How's work in the new city, brother? Is everything going smoothly? If there's anything I can do to help, I'll do my best."

"It's nothing. He's probably just worried about me. He calls often to check on me."

"Oh, okay, let's continue."

"How about...we wait until tonight..."

"I can't wait..."

As their conversation ended, the second-floor door slammed shut in the living room.

Zhizhi has spent two pleasant months in Lancheng. At Shi Tingfeng's request, she also visited his company and saw his demeanor at work.

She also noticed the female assistant who was very hostile towards her. This woman clearly had her eye on her husband, but Zhizhi didn't pay any attention to it.

Men can't be controlled. If Shi Ting truly cares about me, he won't have designs on other women. If he does, how can I possibly control him?

From a young age, Zhizhi believed that her family of five worked together harmoniously, and that her parents were very loving. She grew up in this loving family.

But who could have imagined that one day she would accidentally bump into her beloved father, who was being intimate with a woman in town!

In an instant, Zhizhi's worldview shattered into pieces. It turned out that what she thought was just her opinion.

Seeing her father and that woman being intimate, Zhizhi's eyes were filled with hatred, hating her father for destroying the beautiful home she had in her heart!

When Mr. Dong saw the hateful look in his youngest daughter's eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and he knew he could no longer indulge his emotions.

In front of that woman, he quickly assured Zhizhi that he would never have any contact with her again.

As for what Zhizhi was thinking at the time, Mr. Dong had no idea. And whether Mr. Dong continued to have contact with that woman afterward, Zhizhi didn't know either.

However, from then on, Zhizhi completely lost trust in men and realized that even men can pretend to love a woman they don't love.

So in Zhizhi's eyes, a man is judged by whether he's worth it, not by whether she loves him. Love is too cheap, so when it really matters, she won't remain chaste for a man; as long as she feels it's worth it, that's enough!

If this man is unreliable, aren't there countless other men out there? Both men and women have desires; it's simply a matter of each taking what they need.

But after returning from the company, Zhizhi still mentioned it briefly, at most telling Shi Tingfeng to be more careful. As for whether he was truly careful or pretended not to hear, it all depended on Shi Tingfeng's intentions.

Shi Tingfeng knew what Zhizhi meant, and he immediately fired Chen Siying. He didn't want to keep a woman with ulterior motives by his side and make his wife uncomfortable.

Chen Siying was completely unable to accept this outcome. She had gone through tremendous effort to finally squeeze into this company, which offered high salaries and a great reputation.

I'm absolutely not going to accept being fired like this! The thought that Mrs. Shi had only been to the company for a short while and I was already being fired by Mr. Shi is unbearable.

That woman must have disliked me and said bad things about me to President Shi.

Ignoring everything else, Chen Siying burst into Shi Tingfeng's office.

Looking at his disheveled assistant, Shi Tingfeng said coldly, "Assistant Chen, I advise you to have some self-awareness."

"Why? What did I do wrong? Is it just because Madam Shi doesn't like me that she's going to fire me?"

"Isn't it a reason that my wife doesn't like you?"

"Mr. Shi, how could you do this to me? That night..." Chen Siying was interrupted by Shi Tingfeng before she could finish speaking.

"Enough! What day was it? What happened?" Shi Tingfeng threatened fiercely. If this woman dared to say another word, he was no pushover.

Looking at President Shi in front of her, Chen Siying felt that her heart, which loved him, was like glass that had been smashed on the ground, shattered into pieces...

Back then, when Mr. Shi was completely drunk, it was she who took him back to his room.

She noticed that Mr. Shi had those needs, so she took it upon herself to help him. Although she was being a bit presumptuous, Mr. Shi didn't refuse, did he?

Why is it like this again? What did she do wrong?

Finally, Chen Siying was dragged out by her secretary.

Watching Chen Siying leave, Shi Tingfeng was lost in memories of that night.

He was actually really drunk that day, so when Assistant Chen helped him back, he didn't refuse. He just didn't expect that kind of thing to happen.

Perhaps because he was too drunk, and because he really missed Zhizhi, he lay on the bed staring at the ceiling and drifted off to sleep.

When he felt it, it was as if he was immersed in the wonderful feeling he had when he was with Zhizhi, especially those things in bed. So, in his dazed state, he saw a woman.

He clearly sensed what the woman was doing, and his first reaction was to kick her down.

Later, whether it was because he was too drunk, or because he missed Zhizhi too much, or because it was late at night and he had a glimmer of hope that if something really happened, Zhizhi wouldn't know.

When the woman crawled over again, Shi Tingfeng did not refuse and let her continue in the same way as before. He felt that since he had not actually touched the woman, he was not yet defiled and it did not count as betraying Zhizhi.

The next day, after sobering up, he was filled with remorse, feeling that his behavior the night before was shameless and that he was very sorry to Zhizhi. He blamed himself for not being able to resist his desires while drunk, which allowed that woman to succeed.

So he deliberately showed his dissatisfaction with Chen Siying at the company, hoping that she would resign voluntarily, so that he wouldn't have to find a reason to fire her.

Because he didn't take this woman to heart, he completely forgot about her after Zhizhi came back, and spent several days being intimate with Zhizhi.

He wanted to show off and wanted Zhizhi to visit his company, which led to what just happened.

Thinking about that night, Shi Tingfeng felt a pang of fear. He didn't know why, how he could have been so bewitched that night, to have such dangerous thoughts.

Shi Tingfeng is now afraid that one day his wife will find out about this and divorce him. He loves Zhizhi very much and has never thought about separating from her.

It seems he needs to find a way to get this woman out of the city.
