When the company was doing well, everyone was friends. When the company was in trouble, they were not even friends anymore.
This was the most ruthless side of this society. The fickleness of human nature could only be understood after experiencing it.
"Mom, this is normal. This is how society is. Since you have seen it clearly, don't contact that group of people." Zhou Manchun reached out her hands and hugged Zhao Lizi, who was out of control. At this time, she was the only one left for her mother.
"Xiaochun, let's go see your father tomorrow, okay?" Zhao Lizi stayed at home all day today. She was in a trance. She didn't dare to look at Zhou Tinghao, afraid that Zhou Tinghao would be distressed to see her like this.
"Mom, I went to the detention center today. The people inside said that I can't visit Dad for the time being. I have to wait for a week." Zhou Manchun was afraid that Zhao Lizi would break down even more when she saw the bruises on Zhou Tinghao's face, so she didn't dare to let Zhao Lizi see it, so she lied.
"Really?" Zhao Lizi's tone was full of unhappiness. She had a headache and rubbed her temples with her hands. She slowly closed her eyes.
That night, Zhou Manchun lay in bed and tossed and turned. She thought about it all night, but the more she thought about it, the more disappointed she became.
Looking out of the window, the scenery was different from before. In the past, she could see the most beautiful night view of City A every day, but now, she could only see darkness.
The days passed by in torment. There was no progress in the company's affairs. The police replied that the case was under investigation.
For some reason, Zhou Manchun recently went to see Zhou Tinghao in the detention center and was refused to see him. Zhou Manchun was very angry. It had been like this for six consecutive days. She guessed that it must be Jin Beisen's doing.
Did he really want her to kneel on the ground and beg him?
However, in these six days, Zhou Manchun felt very peaceful because Jin Beisen didn't come to harass her again.
Queen's Bar.
Tonight was Director Li Zeyuan's birthday. The people in the cardiology department gave him a big room in Queen's Bar to celebrate.
When Zhou Manchun arrived, she was already in last place.
Zhou Manchun was a little afraid of this bar, because it was here that she drank too much and lost her virginity.
The colleagues in the private room had drunk a lot. When Li Zeyuan saw Zhou Manchun, he immediately said with a smile, "Director Zhou, you came so late. Are you looking down on me?"
It sounded like a joke, but every word was sharp. Zhou Manchun knew that Li Zeyuan didn't like her because her existence threatened his position.
"Director Li, I'm really sorry. Something happened at home, so I'm late. I'll punish myself with three drinks." Zhou Manchun understood this rule. She picked up the glass and drank three glasses in one go.
There was a calculating look in Li Zeyuan's eyes. He smiled and said, "Director Zhou is really generous. Let's drink to our heart's content tonight."
After being forced to drink a lot, Zhou Manchun walked to the toilet in a daze, stumbling along the way.
At the same time, in a booth not far away, a man in a handmade Italian suit was staring at Zhou Manchun. Her every move fell into his eyes, but he was extraordinarily cold.
They hadn't seen each other for a few days, but this woman was living more and more freely. She even came to the bar to get drunk. She was really not afraid of death.
