When Liu Zhongzhi arrived at the No. 8 villa, ah, Zhang Hongyang and Zhao Han were joking about something.

In the living room on the first floor of the villa, only the couple had arrived.

There were also two female attendants, fairly pretty with makeup on, standing at the entrance of the living room, bending over to welcome Liu Zhongzhi with smiles, figures, and manners that all felt very comfortable.

As soon as Liu Zhongzhi went inside, Zhang Hongyang and his wife stopped joking around, their expressions turning serious.

Zhao Han, upon seeing Liu Zhongzhi, was still somewhat uneasy, but she was good at concealing it. She stood up, gave Liu Zhongzhi a disdainful look, and said she was going to the restroom.

Liu Zhongzhi smirked to himself, "Sly woman, you really know how to play the part! But, it's exactly the kind of expression you've always shown me. Alright, after dinner, when I get you home, it'll be a wonder if I don't make you scream and shout."

Zhang Hongyang, on the other hand, sat on the couch like a lord, not bothering to get up, and just waved his hand, motioning Liu Zhongzhi to sit down.

Liu Zhongzhi, staying calm, smiled and took a seat. He drank the tea brought by the attendant and just had to wait a bit longer. Because Zhang Yuxing and Zhang Hong were supposed to stop by their homes first after work—probably to freshen up—then it would be a while before they arrived.

Of course, the atmosphere of the dinner on the surface was still okay.

Liu Zhongzhi didn't drink alcohol, saying he had to rush some articles when he got back in the evening. One was for Secretary Ma, who was urging him quite hastily; the other was an article for Zhang Yuxing, and he had an idea and planned to start writing.

With a reason given to such extent, it was really impossible to force him. Anyway, in the eyes of Zhang Yuxing and Zhang Hongyang, this guy was merely a useful dog.

Zhang Hongyang also expressed his understanding and even thankfully acknowledged Liu Zhongzhi's hard work!

In fact, Zhao Han was very bitter inside. She knew that Liu Zhongzhi might not necessarily be rushing to write articles when he got back, but he would certainly dare to fool around! Having gotten herself into this situation, she couldn't even escape it.

Damn Zhang Hongyang, such a loser! His wife was getting involved, and he still had no idea!

And Liu Zhongzhi was being extra cautious, not only avoiding alcohol but also barely touching the soup.

He truly feared that Zhang Hongyang and the others might put something in his drink or soup. If he got caught in their trap, that would be terrible.

And not just that, he didn't even go to the restroom once during the whole dinner, sitting at the table throughout, drinking water, smoking, and eating dishes.

He only tasted those dishes that were served individually and then stopped.

There was no help for it; caution is the parent of safety!

This made Zhang Hongyang truly a bit disappointed.

He had planned to get Liu Zhongzhi drunk with Zhang Hong and Zhao Han, and then find an opportunity to slip some aphrodisiac into his drink.

If that happened, Liu Zhongzhi would indeed be in for a terrible time.

Because in the luxury rest area on the second floor of the villa, two naked young girls, only fifteen or sixteen years old, were waiting for Liu Zhongzhi!

Of course, these young girls were all procured by Zhang Qixiang from the middle schools in Yangzhou City. They were problem girls through and through, neither ambitious nor academically successful, with little oversight from their families and plenty of bad influences from society.

As long as they were paid, they were willing to do anything, including serving men.

According to Zhang Hongyang's plan, once Liu Zhongzhi was drugged, it would only take minutes for someone to catch him soliciting services, and that would be quite a spectacle.

However, Liu Zhongzhi was exceedingly cautious the whole time, giving Zhang Hongyang and the others no chance at all.

Zhang Hongyang was, therefore, quite frustrated and ended up drinking a few extra glasses of alcohol.

When Zhang Hongyang drank too much, he would certainly go back to his office to "look at documents," which actually meant he was up to no good.

Zhao Han also drank a few glasses and said she wanted to go back to her parents' house to stay the night, as she hadn't seen her mother in a few days. Besides, her uncle and aunt were going back to her parents' house for dinner that night, and she said she and Zhang Hongyang and Liu Zhongzhi weren't able to attend, which lacked courtesy. If she could make it back in time, she'd be able to toast her uncle and aunt.

The excuse was reasonable and appropriate.

The couple each had their needs, and Zhang Hongyang had absolutely no suspicion of Zhao Han's secret affair with Liu Zhongzhi.

Even during dinner, Liu Zhongzhi, under the cover of the tablecloth, had touched Zhao Han's thigh, and though she pretended not to notice, no one else knew either.

In the end, it was Liu Zhongzhi who drove Zhao Han home, which seemed convenient enough.

Liu Zhongzhi was very sober and excited; he couldn't keep his hands to himself on the way, touching Zhao Han's thighs and chest, feeling ecstatic.

Zhao Han, helpless, could only curse at him while letting him have his way.

Zhao Han also knew about the show Zhang Hongyang had prepared for that evening, and now that Liu Zhongzhi had dodged it, she was quite disappointed as well.

However, she also secretly observed him, feeling that this man was just too alert, making it impossible for anyone to take action. Sigh... those two unfortunate young girls were ready for nothing.

But what she really didn't know was that after Zhang Hongyang had sent away his younger aunt and cousin, as well as his wife, claiming he was waiting for a private car to pick him up—which was never going to happen—he went straight upstairs while drunk and began a ridiculous scene with the two young girls.

Damn, if Liu Zhongzhi wouldn't make use of them, he himself couldn't let such tender meat go to waste, so tender, so juicy…

And on the other side, when Liu Zhongzhi and Zhao Han got home, good gracious, Secretary Ma had rushed off to the Provincial City on urgent business, having left halfway through dinner, picked up by a private car.

As a result, a bunch of important relatives were left drinking quite a bit of alcohol with the Lu Family sisters and Zhao Yan.

Yu Mei had drunk too much and decided to wash up and go to bed.

Yuqing, after seeing off the relatives with Zhao Yan, sat alone in the yard drinking tea, waiting for Liu Zhongzhi and Zhao Han to return…
