When the company was doing well, everyone was a friend. If something happened to the company, they wouldn't even be friends anymore.
This was the most heartless side of this society. Humans were always warm, and only after experiencing it would one know what it was like to be warm.
"Mom, this is very normal. This is how society works. Since you've seen it clearly, then don't contact that group of people anymore." Zhou Manzhen stretched out her arms and hugged the uncontrollable Zhao Lizhi. At this time, she was the only one her mother had left.
"Xiaochun, let's go see your father tomorrow, okay?" Zhao Lizi had stayed at home for the whole day. She was in a daze and did not dare to look at Zhou Tinghao, afraid that he would feel sorry for her.
"Mom, I went to the detention center today. The people inside said that they can't visit dad for the time being and will have to wait for a week." Zhou Manzhu was afraid that Zhao Lizi would see the bruises on Zhou Tinghao's face and break down her emotions, so she didn't dare let Zhao Lizi see it, so she told a lie.
"Is that so?" Zhao Lizi sounded unhappy. With a headache, she rubbed her temples and slowly closed her eyes.
That night, Zhou Man was lying on her bed, tossing and turning. She had been thinking for the entire night, but the more she thought about it, the more disappointed she became.
The view from the window was different from before. Before, she had been able to see the most beautiful night scenery in A City every day, but now, all she could see was darkness.
The days passed by in a torturous ma er, yet there was no progress on the company's affairs. The police replied that the case was being reviewed.
For some unknown reason, Zhou Manzhen's visit to the detention center with Zhou Tinghao had been rejected. Zhou Manzhu was very angry, it had been like this for six consecutive days, she guessed that it must have been Jin Beisan's doing.
Did he have to make her kneel on the ground and beg him?
But for the past six days, Zhou felt calm, because Jin did not bother her again.
Queen's Bar.
Tonight was Li Zeyuan's birthday, and the cardiologists had opened a big box for him at the Queen's Bar to celebrate.
By the time Zhou Manzhen had arrived, he was already in last place.
Zhou Manzhen was a little afraid of this bar because she drank too much here and lost her first night.
Li Ze Yuan saw Zhou Manzhu come and immediately smiled, "Director Zhou came so late, are you looking down on me?"
His words sounded like a joke, but each word was sharp. Zhou Manzhen knew that Li Ze Yuan didn't like him because her existence was a threat to his position.
"Chief Li, I'm really sorry. I have something to attend to at home. I came late, so I'll give myself three cups of wine." Zhou Manzhu understood this rule. She sensibly picked up her wine cup and gulped down three cups in one go.
Li Zeyuan's eyes lit up as if he was calculating something. He smiled and said, "Director Zhou is so generous. Let's drink to our heart's content tonight."
No one knew how much wine Zhou Manzhen had been drunk from, but she still stumbled all the way to the toilet.
At the same time, in a booth not too far away, a man wearing an Italian hand-made, high-class, custom-made suit was staring at Zhou Manzhen. Her every move caught his eye, but it was especially cold.
After not seeing her for a few days, this woman had become even more carefree. She even came to a bar to get drunk, she really wasn't afraid of death.
Jin Beisheng's handsome face carried a hint of resentment, while the deputy mayor sat beside him and chattered about the business. Suddenly, he seemed to notice that Jin Beisheng was distracted.
