Chapter 816: Chapter 816

Although Ma Xiaoyan didn’t agree with Xu Qianli, she found herself deeply curious about him.

She’d heard of Xu Qianli before, knew he was incredible, almost a legendary figure. Seeing him today, he was also handsome, just a bit eccentric. Why did he always offend people?

Offending Fu Guotai and Zhang Dongyang could be overlooked, but he even offended Zhang Hong, why?

Unable to suppress her curiosity, Ma Xiaoyan decided to go to the office building. Unfortunately, there was no trace of Xu Qianli and Zhang Hong; she could only search everywhere.

Skipping the elevator, Ma Xiaoyan went up the stairs, all the way to the top floor.

Assuming that as the head of the City Organization Department, the office must be on the top floor, she was sure she was in the right place.

Just arriving at the top floor, stepping out of the stairwell and seeing the scene in the corridor, Ma Xiaoyan was taken aback.

She could hardly believe her eyes, couldn’t believe what she was seeing.

Ma Xiaoyan saw a couple passionately kissing in the corridor.

Among lovers, such things were nothing unusual. People dared to kiss publicly on the streets; it was even more common on college campuses back in the day, so Ma Xiaoyan wasn’t surprised at all.

What was surprising was that this was the City Organization Department, and the identities of the two kissing were very unusual. If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, even if someone had shown her a photo, she wouldn’t have believed it was real, thinking it was photoshopped.

The two were unmistakably Xu Qianli and Zhang Hong, who had entered the office building earlier!

Oh my god, Zhang Hong, Minister Zhang, was kissing Xu Qianli, that guy, on the lips!

She wasn’t wronged by Xu Qianli, quite displeased with him, wasn’t she going to call Xu Qianli to the office and scold him harshly? Why were they kissing openly in the corridor shortly after arriving at the office?

Could it be that Xu Qianli was bold enough to forcibly kiss Zhang Hong?

Looking carefully, it really seemed that way; Zhang Hong was trying hard to push Xu Qianli away.

It looked like Xu Qianli was indeed forcibly kissing Zhang Hong. What audacity he had to offend Zhang Hong and even dare to forcibly kiss her. Had he gone mad?

A county-level cadre dared to forcibly kiss Zhang Hong, the City Organization Minister. This guy was simply audacious.

Seeing this, Ma Xiaoyan hurriedly wanted to rush over to save her. If she showed her face at this moment and saved Minister Zhang Hong, she could become her benefactor, and if she gained her favor, she wouldn’t have to sleep with old men in the future; she’d have a backing and could climb up the ranks.

Her steps hadn’t gone out yet when Ma Xiaoyan scrapped the idea, realizing with her strength, she couldn’t beat Xu Qianli. What if Xu Qianli overpowered her as well?

She’d better not save Zhang Hong only to let Xu Qianli take advantage of her too.

Although he was quite handsome and to her liking, they had just met. How could she let him take advantage of her?

No, it wouldn’t do.

Forget it, better to observe the situation and then decide.

Ma Xiaoyan widened her eyes, watching as Zhang Hong only symbolically pushed Xu Qianli, then wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him passionately.

In that moment, it was clear it wasn’t a forced kiss; they obviously had a history together.

With Zhang Hong embracing his neck, Xu Qianli freed up his hands, one landing on Zhang Hong’s curvy waist for a firm squeeze, while the other, outrageously, slipped into her neckline, teasing…

This…

Ma Xiaoyan was utterly speechless.

Clearly, the two had a history. Otherwise, why would Zhang Hong behave this way, letting Xu Qianli take liberties?

She previously expressed her displeasure with Xu Qianli, only to find it was all an act, put on for everyone to see.

Ma Xiaoyan had watched some cheesy soap operas before, where employees weren’t allowed to date in a company, so there were often couples pretending to be enemies, outwardly clashing, but in reality, their relationship was strong, their bonds inseparable.

Clearly, that’s what Xu Qianli and Zhang Hong were doing.

The two were definitely old flames, acting like enemies to fool everyone.

Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous.

She’d been wracking her brains about whether to align with a leader to gain a foothold and climb up.

Xu Qianli, however, had already won over Minister Zhang Hong. His speed was astonishing.

And he had been transferred from another province, only in Hai City for a few days before winning over Zhang Hong. His methods were impressive; you couldn’t help but admire him.

Zhang Hong, such a beautiful woman, an exceptional mature woman, it was truly his gain.

But such a beautiful person, it seemed unlikely any ordinary man could satisfy her, given her age where needs wouldn’t be small. Could Xu Qianli really fulfill her?

At that moment, Ma Xiaoyan noticed movement from Xu Qianli and Zhang Hong’s direction again.

Xu Qianli finally let go of Zhang Hong’s lips and said with a smirk, “So, did you do what I instructed you to last night?”

Zhang Hong blushed, turning her face aside, “Of course not, I won’t listen to you, you bad man. Let go of me, or I’ll scream for help.”

Xu Qianli replied, “Go ahead, scream. If you do, I won’t touch you again. Even if you beg me, I won’t lay a finger on you.”

“You, you bastard!”

Cursing, Zhang Hong ultimately didn’t call for help.

If she really called for help and they embarrassed Xu Qianli, what if he never touched her again?

A few days ago, Xu Qianli had gotten his way with her, worn her out. Zhang Hong was infuriated afterward, secretly cursing how she, such a reserved woman, ended up foolishly letting Xu Qianli take advantage of her, making such a mess.

Afterward, Zhang Hong vowed he’d never get another chance, she’d never let him touch her again.

But somehow these past few days, despite not seeing Xu Qianli, she’d been dreaming of him, yearning both in her heart and her body.

Knowing she could see Xu Qianli today, she was so excited yesterday that her full bosom ached with anticipation for today.

Despite knowing she shouldn’t, Zhang Hong found herself unwilling to give up Xu Qianli.

Even if her heart wanted to refuse, her body had already been conquered, unable to live without him.

Xu Qianli cupped Zhang Hong’s pretty face, “You just like this kind of bad guy, don’t you? Switch to a proper gentleman, and you probably wouldn’t even glance at him, let alone let him sleep with you. Tease, stop pretending. Did you do as I texted you last night?”

Last night, Xu Qianli texted Zhang Hong to make sure to do something special for him today; who knew if she had done it?

Zhang Hong hesitated for a moment, then turned her blushing face away, saying coyly, “You can see for yourself whether I did.”

Weak in the knees, Zhang Hong couldn’t hold steady. She simply leaned against the wall, bending her upper body, presenting her curvaceous rear to Xu Qianli in a shameful pose.

She knew very well what this posture represented—it represented her surrender to Xu Qianli, but she couldn’t care less. Xu Qianli was a tormenting man, and she couldn’t withstand him.
