Stunning Dragon Wife
Chapter 124 - 123

Chapter 124: Chapter 123

Zhang Xiaoshan immediately spoke up.

"I’m not a greedy person, the fifty thousand I have is enough for me."

Hearing this, Liu Guotao let out a sigh of relief, saving fifty thousand wasn’t too bad.

But then Zhang Xiaoshan’s tone changed and he continued,

"The remaining fifty thousand can be considered as reimbursement for the examinees’ travel expenses for the test. Let’s divide it among ourselves."

"What?"

At that, Liu Guotao’s face darkened.

The candidates were first taken aback, then burst into cheers.

"Thank you senior..."

"You, you, you little rascal, you’re too cunning!"

Liu Guotao pointed at Zhang Xiaoshan, his face twisted with pain.

Zhang Xiaoshan retorted without any politeness.

"It was you who provoked me, wasn’t it? And you agreed to the bet yourself. This is called reaping what you sow. I’m just teaching you a little lesson. How can you, an official of your rank, think of reneging on your word?"

"Why don’t you ask these junior brothers and sisters of mine if they agree or not?"

"We don’t agree, we don’t, give us the money."

"You gotta honor a bet, hurry up and give us the money!"

A group of candidates began to shout excitedly at this point.

In Wanshan County, a breakfast only costs five or six yuan; these candidates were all fresh university graduates, and fifty thousand divided among them meant a few hundred for each. Even if a fly is small, it’s still flesh, and besides, it was money that came like a windfall—no reason to turn it down.

The reason Zhang Xiaoshan was doing this was to embarrass Liu Guotao.

If it were only him, Liu Guotao might really have welched.

But how could he do so in front of so many candidates?

Moreover, with so many candidates spreading the word, it would definitely maximally tarnish Liu Guotao’s reputation.

He was no fool; he could see that Liu Guotao and Jiang Man didn’t get along, so this was just like indirectly helping Jiang Man.

"Give us the money, give us the money..."

By now, everyone was ganging up on Liu Guotao.

"Hey, don’t get physical, and don’t pull at my clothes."

Liu Guotao shouted frantically.

"Mr. Zheng, what are you doing, stop them!"

"I, I can’t stop them."

Zheng Jianhai was also on the verge of tears; how could he have imagined things would escalate to this point?

"Heh."

Watching the disgraced Liu Guotao and Zheng Jianhai, Jiang Man laughed out.

At the same time, she tugged at Zhang Xiaoshan’s arm, speaking with a hint of flirtation.

"You really have some nerve to think up such a malicious trick."

Zhang Xiaoshan said.

"To deal with people like them, you’ve got to play dirty."

"If you’re so capable, why didn’t you tell me earlier? You had me worried for half a day."

Jiang Man came back to her senses and started to blame Zhang Xiaoshan.

At this time, everyone’s attention was on Liu Guotao and nobody paid attention to Zhang Xiaoshan and Jiang Man.

Zhang Xiaoshan then unabashedly flirted with Jiang Man.

"Didn’t you already experience how amazing I am last night? Or shall we find a quiet place, and I’ll show you again?"

"Get lost, if you talk nonsense again, do you believe I’ll tear your mouth off?"

Jiang Man’s face instantly turned crimson, and she scolded Zhang Xiaoshan in a soft voice.

Zhang Xiaoshan added.

"Moreover, you didn’t give me the chance to perform, did you? Next time something like this happens, I’ll definitely let you know in advance."

"Hmph, there won’t be a next time. I’m too lazy to clean up your messes."

Jiang Man haughtily snorted, turned her head, and walked away.

"Are you a dog or something? You change your face so quickly. I just helped you teach that Liu guy a lesson, how come you don’t say thank you?"

Zhang Xiaoshan called out after her.

Jiang Man, walking away with her back to him, sneakily smiled but didn’t stop, quickly leaving.

"So you’re playing hard to get with me?"

Zhang Xiaoshan’s interest in Jiang Man grew stronger, but he wasn’t in a rush.

He would soon be officially employed, and there would be plenty of opportunities to interact with Jiang Man, certainly chances to "train" Jiang Man.

At that moment, his phone rang.

Zhang Xiaoshan picked it up and saw.

It was an unfamiliar number; after hesitating for a moment, he still answered.

"Zhang, Brother Zhang, is that you?"

A timid and fragile voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Are you Xu Xiaomeng?"

Zhang Xiaoshan hesitantly inquired.

"It’s, it’s me."

"You still remember my voice, huh."

The voice on the phone was tinged with a bit of excitement but quickly faded again, with even a sobbing sound faintly transmitting over.
