Chapter 4: Double Standards

Cheng Zhong Ting paused his hand fiddling with the lighter, looked up at him with a gaze that was both arrogant and scrutinizing.

Qi Zheng Yang then laughed, "You don't know about this?"

He had only found out a couple of days ago when he met with Ning Xiao, who accidentally let it slip.

"If you can make do, explain Ye Jinhua's situation to her. It's not a solution to keep misunderstanding like this."

Because of Ning Xiao, Qi Zheng Yang had a good impression of Chi Huan, a well-educated girl, beautiful, with a clean background. Cheng Zhong Ting's status was already established here; he didn't need a woman of higher standards to add to it, Chi Huan was enough.

In fact, Qi Zheng Yang wasn't very clear about what exactly was going on between Cheng Zhong Ting and Ye Jinhua, whether they got together because of the recent Dongyang Tech acquisition case or if it was an old flame rekindled. Cheng Zhong Ting didn't say, and no one around him knew.

He was too deep, no one could see through him.

Cheng Zhong Ting didn't respond directly to Qi Zheng Yang. The waiter brought the coffee, he took a few sips and then got up to play golf again.

Under the sunlight, the man swung the golf club with perfect posture, his face like a jade plate, his body like a tree, uniquely handsome, unparalleled in the world.

Qi Zheng Yang looked at that handsome and sharp back, raising his hand to pinch the bridge of his nose.

A man who had been favored by heaven since childhood, everything going smoothly for him, to ask him to beg for the preservation of marriage? Impossible.

But for Chi Huan to unilaterally want to divorce, it probably wasn't going to be easy.

He took out his phone and sent a message to Ning Xiao: [I have no emotional fluctuations]

Ning Xiao replied: [That dog man should have been dumped long ago]

At six o'clock after work, Ning Xiao gathered a group of friends and took Chi Huan to the most upscale entertainment city in South City, which combined Karaoke and a business club.

After taking off her work clothes, Chi Huan changed into the white T-shirt and denim skirt she had worn when she left in the morning, tucking the hem into her waist, her slightly wavy long hair falling over her shoulders, wearing a pair of flat shoes, pure and casual, yet not without charm.

Since they were going to divorce anyway, Ning Xiao planned to introduce her to a few handsome guys early on for her to slowly choose from.

They were singing in a Karaoke room downstairs, while Cheng Zhong Ting and Qi Zheng Yang were upstairs in a room with a card game.

With close friends at the table, Qi Zheng Yang's words were less reserved, even with a hint of schadenfreude: "Ning Xiao brought a few master's students, said she's going to introduce them to your wife."

Cheng Zhong Ting stared at a bad hand of cards, sitting unmoved, not even lifting an eyelid, "Times are so bad that even master's students are willing to be the other woman."

Zhao Ke across the table coughed and took over, smiling mischievously: "After the divorce, your wife will be a billionaire. If she wants, not just master's students, but even PhDs are possible."

After saying this, he and Qi Zheng Yang exchanged whispers and laughed mischievously, very happy.

As expected, Cheng Zhong Ting lost this hand.

He took out a cigarette, lit it, and got up to leave without changing his expression, "Going to the restroom."

Zhao Ke watched him leave, then turned to ask Qi Zheng Yang: "Doesn't our room have a restroom?"

Qi Zheng Yang shrugged with interest, spreading his hands.

Xu Zheng next to him threw a cigarette box at him, "Don't go too far, you know Zhong Ting is upset and you still tease him!"

What men hate most is being cuckolded, blatantly bringing the other woman right under his nose, no one could tolerate that.

Qi Zheng Yang sneered: "He can be ambiguous with women outside, but Chi Huan can't find a man? Double standards!"

The man with double standards had already gone from the seventh floor to the third, now standing in the corridor, calmly watching his wife flirt with that master's student.

——Chi Huan brought up her WeChat QR code, handed it to Shen Yanwu: "The specific benefits policy, we'll discuss in detail when you go to the bank."

Shen Yanwu was one of the friends Ning Xiao called to hang out tonight. With so many people, Chi Huan's professional habit kicked in, she couldn't help but recommend the latest financial products.

Shen Yanwu had this need, and it was noisy inside, so they came out to chat for a few minutes.

Shen Yanwu gladly added Chi Huan's WeChat, smiled gently: "Tomorrow when you're at work, I'll definitely go to the bank to do business with you."

With the performance, Chi Huan was naturally happy, her face full of smiles like peach blossoms in March, which to Cheng Zhong Ting not far away, looked like she had taken a fancy to the male student.

"Let's go back in."

Chi Huan said to Shen Yanwu. They had been out for several minutes, it wasn't good for a man and a woman to be alone.

Shen Yanwu had just nodded when a deep male voice came floating over with the dense evening breeze: "Wait."

"..."

Chi Huan frowned, thinking the voice sounded so familiar, turned around, and saw Cheng Zhong Ting's tall and jade-like figure enveloped in the cold light and shadow of the corridor.
