Chapter 704 Night falls, the scent of his cologne!
mosphere in the Huo residence was somewhat oppressive.Wen Man waited from day until night, but Huo Shaoting didn't come back.He did call her to let her eat first and have the driver take her back to h...The meal was tasteless, and after dinner, the two of them casually chatted about the children's school situation. Huo Xi said a few words and went upstairs to her study. Zhang Chongguang called out to her: "Don't look at the case files, there are too many, take a break!"
Hosei grunted. "Court's tomorrow."
Zhang Chongguang watched her graceful ascent up the stairs. They had been together for many years, even could be said to have grown up together... Huo Xisheng had given birth to two children, but her figure was still perfect, with a slender waist and straight, long legs.
Her appearance also belongs to the top tier.
Zhang Chongguang never thought about eating outside food after marriage, and he never touched other women.
But now that his body felt much better, he still felt empty inside. He wanted to go for a walk.
The car key was downstairs, he took it and walked outside, opened the car door and got in.
The summer night is cool.
He simply rolled down the car windows and drove aimlessly... About half an hour later, his phone rang. It was Jingrui calling.
"Why are you looking for me when you don't spend time with your wife late at night"
Zhang Chongguang spoke, his voice was raspy but pleasant to the ear.
That Jing Rui was being very obsequious and flattering lately. He had a project he wanted to get Zhang Chongguang's help with, so they'd been getting close recently. He was very ingratiating: "Come play with us, Zhang ge! I just opened a private room, Lu Shuo is here too."
Zhang Chongguang was quite surprised.
Lu Shu usually doesn't go out to play much, but tonight he actually came along.
He didn't answer Jing Rui immediately, but casually asked about someone else: "What about Huo Yunsi Is he coming"
Jingrui's reaction was a bit exaggerated: "Hey, Zhang Ge, why are you so concerned about him You know him well enough as your nephew, anyone who doesn't would think you married him! ... But you also know that Huo Yunsi is really clingy with his wife. After getting married, he practically never leaves the house. If you ask him to come out ten times, he might show up once, just for face. It's just not worth mentioning."
Zhang Chongguang smiled faintly.
That smile was a bit bitter, with a touch of envy.
……
Ten minutes later, Zhang Chongguang arrived at the club and went into the private room.
Jing Rui called everyone he knew.
Lu Shu was really there, unexpectedly he also brought Lu Xun. She obediently sat beside Lu Shu playing with her phone, not very sociable but no one dared to tease her because Mr. Lu was very protective.
But Zhang Chongguang was an exception. He was older than Lu Shuo, and Lu Xun was his younger sibling.
Zhang Chongguang smiled faintly while sitting beside Lu Shuo, glancing at him: "If I had known you were going to come here and eat dog food, I wouldn't have come. This kid Jingrui is not honest."
Jing Rui chuckled and personally poured him a glass of wine.
"Lu Shuo, however, was quick-witted. He leaned back on the sofa and smiled nonchalantly: 'It's only this early, Zhang Zong has already taken a shower Did you come from home or from the hotel' "
Zhang Chongguang raised a slight smile at the corner of his mouth: “Of course it’s home! Your sister is strict.”
He may fool others, but Lu Shuo doesn't believe it.
He knew that Lu Xun would be uncomfortable with Zhang Chongguang around, so he patted his wife's hand and said, "Let's go. You're still playing."
Lu Xun's face flushed with anger.
How can you say she's playing around He was the one who wanted to come and dragged her here.
"Sorry, Xiaoxun is quite strict," Lu Shu said to Zhang Chongguang as he was leaving.
Zhang Chongguang was amused.
He finished half a cup of strong liquor and smiled: “Come on! It’s only because she’s the one you keep under your thumb. Try it with someone else.”
Lu Shuo said with a hint of pride, "That's also my skill."
……
After Lu Xun left, the atmosphere noticeably livened up. The men started telling off-color jokes, which was common in this circle. It was normal for people of status to drink alcohol, just like ordinary people.
Zhang Chongguang was not in high spirits, but he had drunk quite a bit of alcohol.
It was mainly Jingrui who was "taking care" of him, calling him "brother" constantly. Zhang Chongguang didn't object to it.
Jingrui got drunk himself.
He held up his glass, flushed with excitement, and stammered, "No one's leaving tonight. Anyone whose wife calls can go, but whoever's left at the end is the king of this group, not afraid of the she-tiger back home."
A few words, and the men in the private room all burst into laughter.
Many people are complaining about their wives on social media.
Zhang Chongguang listened quietly, listening to the idle chatter of others. In the end, he discovered...that everyone's marriage was a mess. He felt a little more balanced and comfortable in his heart.
Maybe this is how marriage is at this age!
After half an hour, one by one, men received phone calls from their wives at home. They were all urged to go back. Before answering the phone, they seemed so arrogant and powerful, but when facing their wives' inquiries, they became very careful and cautious.
"It's just a little drink, don't think too much about it!"
Yes, it's a meeting organized by Jing, the general manager. I don't believe me I can record a video for you to see.
……
That person said that, but after hanging up the phone, he bid farewell: "I'm sorry everyone, my family is urging me to leave. For the sake of family harmony, I can only take a step back first! I'll have a drink as punishment, and we'll get together again next time."
Amidst the jeers and laughter, one by one they were sent off.
Only Jing Rui was left with Zhang Chongguang. Jing Rui's wife also called. Jing Rui was so drunk that he was muddled, he clutched at Zhang Chongguang and mumbled, "Brother, I'm not leaving, I'll stay with you! Tonight, for the project, I have to sacrifice myself. My wife should understand, right"
Zhang Chongguang patted his face: "Your wife is at the door! Also, I'm not interested in men, and even less so in drunk men, they're like dead pigs."
Jing Rui's wife ran in.
She came from a well-off family, was pretty with fair skin, a plump figure, and was also practical. When facing Zhang Chongguang, she called him "Brother": "Brother, I'm sorry, Jingrui lost his composure. I'll take him back and wait until tomorrow morning when he's sober to have him call you to apologize."
Zhang Chongguang smiled faintly: "Alright, you take him back."
Mrs. Jingrui greeted them again before leading them away.
The private room fell silent. Zhang Chongguang leaned back on the sofa, looking at the chaos around him with a slight daze……All the other men's wives had called, but his hadn't. She gave him absolute freedom.
Zhang Chongguang lightly wiped his face.
The club manager came over and, seeing Zhang Chongguang's appearance, couldn't help but understand his feelings and ask, "Mr. Zhang, would you like me to get someone for you"
Zhang Chongguang was stunned for a moment, then he understood the manager's meaning.
You should give him a girlfriend.
He shielded his eyes with his hand, his voice flat: "No need, just bring me two bottles of red wine, something from a good vintage."
The manager nodded. "Alright! I'll have them tidy up, or maybe get Mr. Zhang a different private room. This place is too messy and it's not respectable at all."
Zhang Chongguang agreed and changed to a cleaner private room.
He was alone, drinking sullenly.
Occasionally, he would also glance at his phone, wondering when Ho-xi would call... He thought that if she didn't call, he would sleep here tonight anyway; after all, she wouldn't care."When I have time, I will definitely spend some time with you, Siqi. I'm very sorry today."Li Siqi smiled faintly.She still chose to believe Chen Lü, they said goodnight to each other and hung up the...
