After the divorce, I became a rich girl

Chapter 265 Blind Marriage and Dumb Marriage

After the call was connected, Zhou Dan said apologetically: "Director Zhao, I'm sorry, the meeting ended a little late, I'll be there now. You guys eat first, no need to wait for me!"

Zhao Jianye replied: "I know you are busy, take your time, we are not in a hurry. We just ate some cakes and drank some soup, so we are not too hungry now."

Despite what Zhao Jianye said, Zhou Dan quickly returned to the office, locked her notebook in the cabinet, picked up her down jacket and bag, and walked out. However, before she reached the door, she saw a man walking in with documents.

Zhou Dan rolled his eyes involuntarily, sighed, stopped and asked, "Chief Zhang, what's the matter?"

Zhang Yi saw the coat and bag in Zhou Dan's hand and asked, "Are you leaving get off work now?"

Zhou Dan smiled and put on her down jacket, not wanting to talk more: "Chief Zhang, it's time to get off work now."

Zhang Yi held up the meeting minutes in his hand and said, "I also want to ask you about your work arrangements for the investigation next week."

Zhou Dan said, "Chief Zhang, there are still three days left. Let's talk about any work tomorrow. I have a dinner appointment tonight and I'm already late. That's it for now, see you tomorrow!" After saying that, Zhou Dan walked around Zhang Yi and left the office directly.

Zhang Yi watched Zhou Dan leave quickly, sneered, closed the meeting minutes, and left the office.

He returned to his office, sat in his office chair, and turned the pen in his hand. The corridor was quiet, completely different from the bustle during the day. Except for a few colleagues on duty, everyone else had gone off work, but when he thought of the mess at home, he couldn't help but have a headache and had no desire to go home at all.

He couldn't understand why he had come to this point.

He was doing well in the Municipal Personnel Bureau, but was suddenly seconded to the Discipline Inspection Department. People who work in government departments know that only by joining a special task force can there be a future. For example, the tourism and culture working group established by the city previously drew personnel from other departments to participate in related work. Those who performed well and returned to their original units could receive promotions or other rewards.

Zhao Jianye and Chang Gang were promoted from deputy division level to division level because of their good work in the working group, and Zhou Dan was promoted from deputy section level to section level.

However, there was no benefit for someone like him who was transferred to help out due to the heavy workload of the disciplinary inspection department. What was worse was that when he left his original unit, his position had already been replaced by someone else.

Zhang Yi felt that he was in a dilemma. How successful he was when he first started working, how frustrated he was now.

Just as Zhang Yi was daydreaming, the phone on the table suddenly vibrated. He glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Huang Keren. After sighing, he turned the phone upside down on the table, out of sight, out of mind.

However, Huang Keren did not seem to give up easily and called again and again.

After the phone rang more than a dozen times, Zhang Yi answered the phone irritably: "Huang Keren, I'm working, can you please stop disturbing me?"

Huang Keren sneered: "How busy can you be as a seconded person? Zhang Yi, do you have someone else outside?"

Zhang Yi laughed at himself and said, "Is there anyone outside? In my current state, there won't be anyone!"

Huang Keren snorted coldly: "I don't think you dare. Transfer 5,000 yuan to me. I have no money left."

Zhang Yi got angry immediately when he heard Huang Keren wanted money again: "I transferred three thousand to you the day before yesterday, how come you have no money again?"

Huang Keren immediately retorted: "Three thousand? What can you buy with three thousand yuan? Not even a coat. Besides, don't I have to eat and drink water?"

Zhang Yi frowned and said, "Your closet is full of clothes, why are you still buying clothes? Besides, your parents take care of the food and drink at home. When have you ever paid for it?"

Huang Keren said, "Zhang Yi, don't forget who helped you pay back the four million. Otherwise, do you think you can still work safely in the government department now?"

Zhang Yi listened to Huang Keren's shouting, and felt as if thousands of flies were buzzing in his ears. He rubbed his brows involuntarily, and then said: "Huang Keren, our family paid nearly three million of the four million. And don't forget, you were the one who destroyed those things."

Huang Keren listened to Zhang Yi's rebuttal and sneered, "Zhang Yi, settle accounts with me now! Do you regret divorcing Li Jiawei? Otherwise, you are now the son-in-law of the richest man in Xishi, and you also have an uncle who is a high-ranking official."

Huang Keren knew Zhang Yi's pain and regret, so she often used this to irritate him. The angrier he got, the happier she was. Then, she whispered, "Who told you not to be able to control yourself? Let's live slowly in the future. Remember to transfer 5,000 yuan to me, or I'll go to your workplace to find you."

Zhang Yi hung up the phone, afraid that she would come to the company to make trouble again, so he reluctantly transferred 5,000 yuan to Huang Keren. Looking at the balance of less than 1,000 yuan in his bank card, he smiled self-deprecatingly. His life and work are now a mess.

The hotel Li Jiawei booked was not far from the city government, less than ten minutes' drive away.

It was not yet half past eight when Zhou Dan arrived. As soon as she saw her enter the room, Li Jiawei immediately stood up and walked forward to hug her.

Zhou Dan sat next to Li Jiawei, wiped her hands with a wet towel, and then picked up a piece of cake and stuffed it into her mouth: "Oh, I'm starving!"

Li Jiawei said: "I calculated that you would be here soon, so I asked them to start serving the food."

Zhou Dan finished the cake in his hand and continued, "I have been in a meeting all day, and my mind is in a mess now. I thought the meeting would end at seven o'clock, but it lasted until eight o'clock."

Zhao Jianye smiled and said, "I know you guys are busy these days!"

Zhou Dan complained, "That's right. I'm almost like an octopus from organizing all kinds of materials every day."

Li Jiawei smiled and served Zhou Dan a bowl of soup and handed it to her: "Drink some soup first to warm your stomach."

Zhou Dan took the bowl, drank half of it in one breath, and took a long breath: "So comfortable." Then, she looked at Zhao Jianye: "Director Zhao, when can you transfer me to your department? My brain is almost not enough in the discipline inspection department."

Zhao Jianye laughed out loud: "Hey, Comrade Xiao Zhou, are you kidding me that I'm an idler?"

Zhou Dan said quickly: "Director Zhao, please don't misunderstand me. I dare not tease you."

Zhao Jianye laughed and said, "You think I haven't had any intentions towards you? But you are the backbone of your department, and your leader is reluctant to let you go. If anyone wants to take you away, your secretary will fight him to the death."

Li Jiawei, who was sitting nearby, listened to their jokes and felt that this relaxed atmosphere brought back the days when they worked together.

Zhou Dan held Li Jiawei's hand and said, "I really want to quit my job and join you now. I've been running around outside for half a month and I don't even have time to date. If this continues, I'm really afraid that my mother will force me into a blind marriage one day."
