Chapter 1133: Chapter 1133 Pursuers

“On top of that, the conditions here are poor. The Deputy Director doesn’t like the beds or the bedding, the food or the weather. So he’s in a really bad mood,”

Ji Fang added, nearly bursting into tears by the end, God knows he had tried everything to buy the best down comforters, clothes, and even the most expensive towels. But the Deputy Director was already dissatisfied and very disdainful.

“Is that all?” Zhou Hengyang asked with a hint of impatience, “If that’s the case, why not come back?”

“Can’t go back… it’s just that the business here is too important, there’s so much…”

Ji Fang was about to continue when Zhou Hengyang interrupted him rudely, “So what?”

“Ah?”

“Are they more important than my brother?”

Ji Fang was taken aback and stared wide-eyed; he actually felt a sweet sensation in his heart. Fortunately, he was a man who liked women, or else if it were someone whose determination was not steadfast, hearing the big boss’s words would have caused them to throw their heart at the big boss.

The big boss was too charismatic.

“Big Boss, our Deputy Director has agreed to stay,” Ji Fang could only say, steeling himself.

Zhou Hengyang fell silent for a moment then spoke faintly, “Tell my brother that his sister-in-law asked me to introduce a few more promising and excellent young men to my sister.”

“Alright, I’ll definitely pass on the message,” Ji Fang said, a bit confused. But he quickly realized and subconsciously covered his mouth.

The sister mentioned by the big boss, isn’t that Su Qing?

This was definitely going to cause trouble.

While Ji Fang was still surprised, Zhou Hengyang across the line hung up the phone. Just before the call ended, Ji Fang could faintly hear the big boss cursing with a laugh, “That little brat…”

Ji Fang suddenly felt envious of the relationship between the big boss and the Deputy Director. It didn’t show usually, but the big boss always liked to exploit the Deputy Director’s labor. The Deputy Director wasn’t honest either, always scheming behind the big boss’s back, full of thoughts.

Now that the big boss was aware, the terrible things Ji Fang feared would happen, didn’t occur. He had thought the big boss would fly into a rage. However, simply because the Deputy Director fell ill, the big boss immediately let it go.

Ji Fang was deeply moved, yet he was unaware that the reason Zhou Hengyang and Su Wen were so agreeable was also because of Su Qing.

Su Qing had suffered yet kept everything bottled up, not telling anyone, allowing a certain shameless Zhou Hengguang to escape unscathed.

Having powerful support really does make it tough to take action!

Ji Fang gathered himself, preparing to wait outside the meeting room, to see when the Deputy Director would conclude the meeting. When he arrived at the meeting room door, the debate inside was still ongoing. Nearby was the lounge, designated for experts like them, leaders’ secretaries to sit and drink tea, awaiting orders.

During this period, Ji Fang had already gotten to know his peers well. Although Zhou Hengguang was young, his high status, strong backing, and ability made him the one who really had a say in the experts’ group. This also gave Ji Fang an advantage, and his own status amongst the numerous entourage, secretaries, and assistants was elevated.

He got along well with many of them.

But there were some people Ji Fang didn’t show a good face to, not because he was arrogant or looked down on them, but because quite a few female comrades’ intentions were too obvious. They wanted to get close to the Deputy Director through him.

Seeing the Deputy Director as an eligible bachelor, they tried all sorts of tricks to catch his attention.

After hitting a wall with the Deputy Director, they changed tactics and approached Ji Fang to inquire about Zhou Hengguang’s interests and personality. They wanted to take advantage of Ji Fang’s amicable nature to get close to Deputy Director Zhou.
