Chapter 967: A Big Secret....
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
For example, why did the director go to Clear Water County? Why did the director use Lin Weiguo’s name to write letters to others? He remembered that those letters were sent to Clear Water County.
Wasn’t the Su family from Clear Water County?
Also, the director was unwilling to attend the Xu family’s banquet yesterday.
There were too many thoughts, and the more Ji Fang thought about it, the more terrified he became.
He seemed to have discovered a huge secret about the director.
It was over. Would he be silenced?
Just as Ji Fang was hiding in a corner and shivering with a guilty conscience, Su Qing had already chosen what she wanted. There were many, many things. It was the first time she was so generous when buying things, and she did not feel bad about spending money.
She finally understood why Big sister would spend so much money every time she bought something.
Something awkward happened when she was paying the bill. She didn’t have that much money.
“I’ll pay.”
“No.” Su Qing rejected Zhou Hengguang’s suggestion without hesitation. “Your life is already tough. How can I let you spend money the money? I’ll pay.”
“I’m willing to spend all my money on you.” This supermarket was opened for her. Zhou Hengguang hated that he had money but could not spend it.
“That won’t do.” Su Qing insisted. “I’ve accepted what you usually give me, but I am buying these things for the workshop. I have to issue a receipt and go back to report them.”
“Alright then!” Zhou Hengguang had no choice but to compromise. He wondered if he had gone too far in his performance and acted too successfully.
Ji Fang hid in a corner and cursed in his heart.
He did not expect his department director to be like this. A pair of his shoes was equivalent to an ordinary person’s salary for a year. How could he have the nerve to say such a thing? The entire supermarket was his.
The money was not enough, so Su Qing returned some of the goods and spent all the money she had on her. She asked the supermarket to issue a receipt before leaving. After being outside for so long, her family must have been anxious. She rejected Zhou Hengguang’s offer to send her home and returned a taxi.
When she got into the car, Su Qing thought for a moment. “Are you going home for the holiday today?”
“Yes. Although I don’t want to return, I must return.” Zhou Hengguang looked at her, a little reluctant to let her go.
“Alright then!” Originally, Su Qing wanted to invite him to her house for the holiday to meet her big sister. She would find another opportunity next time since he still wanted to go home. “Then go back quickly! Don’t be too late, or it won’t be good.”
After all, it was not his natural home, so it would be inconvenient. It would not be wrong if his stepfather and brothers gave him a hard time.
“Yes!” At this moment, Zhou Hengguang’s smile had already disappeared.
“Goodbye!”
“Goodbye.”
After Su Qing left in the car, Zhou Hengguang’s expression turned cold. His entire temperament was no longer as pleasant and friendly as before. Instead, he became more and more distant. His tall and slender figure stood by the roadside. The warm yellow light shone on him, making him look even more lonely and cold.
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, a bright moon hung in the night sky. There were no pedestrians on the streets. It was as if he was the only one in the world.
After some time, Zhou Hengguang suddenly spoke. His voice was low and cold. “You know everything?”
Ji Fang shivered. “I… know.”
“Heh…” Zhou Hengguang sneered.
Ji Fang was so scared that his heart was about to jump out of his chest. However, he was not stupid. He immediately swore, “Department Director, I swear that I will keep this a secret. I won’t tell anyone.”
“Didn’t the big boss say anything?”
