Chapter 0791: Vacation

In Wang Zhonglei's office, Zhao Fusheng and Little Wang chatted cheerfully.

Since ancient times, Chinese people have enjoyed sipping tea while chatting. Today, Wang Zhonglei was in a good mood and took the initiative to bring out his treasured, top-grade Dahongpao tea for Zhao Fusheng to taste.

Since his host was so hospitable, Zhao Fusheng naturally didn't refuse. The two of them drank tea and talked about everything under the sun.

It had to be said that although Wang Zhonglei was lecherous and flashy, he still had some substance in his mind. When chatting with Zhao Fusheng, the depth he displayed genuinely surprised Zhao Fusheng.

From celebrity gossip to anecdotes from unofficial history, Wang Zhonglei could reel them off effortlessly, always making Zhao Fusheng's eyes light up.

"Fusheng, have you ever heard of a man named Wen Yang?" Wang Zhonglei asked with a smile.

Zhao Fusheng was taken aback and shook his head: "I have some impression, but I don't know much."

"Let me tell you, this guy was the most formidable military general in the Three Kingdoms period," Wang Zhonglei said with an expression that seemed to say, 'I knew you wouldn't know.'

Blinking, Zhao Fusheng looked utterly bewildered; he really didn't know about this.

Then Wang Zhonglei began to extensively educate Zhao Fusheng on historical knowledge, and only then did Zhao Fusheng learn how valiant this general named Wen Yang was according to the records in the Records of the Three Kingdoms and the Comprehensive Mirror for Aid in Government.

"By the way, do you know why it's said that when making friends, you shouldn't befriend 'neither three nor four' people?" Wang Zhonglei suddenly laughed.

Zhao Fusheng suddenly recalled an article he had read and replied with a smile: "Because the hexagrams in the Book of Changes are divided into six lines, which combine into the three powers. The first and second lines represent earth, the third and fourth lines represent man, and the fifth and sixth lines represent heaven. Simply put, 'neither three nor four' means that person is not human."

"Hahaha..." Wang Zhonglei laughed, not expecting Zhao Fusheng to actually know this: "Yes, we should learn from the ancients; they could curse without using dirty words. Without education, you wouldn't even understand that you're being insulted."

"Yes, the ancients valued integrity, but now we are slowly abandoning it," Zhao Fusheng said calmly.

Wang Zhonglei was startled. Although he didn't know why Zhao Fusheng had brought this up, he understood the hidden meaning in Zhao Fusheng's words.

The difference between humans and animals is that humans are too clever, always liking to be self-righteous, always wanting to change certain inherent rules with their own rules. But humans forget that when rules no longer have power, all reasonable actions also lose their power.

Zhao Fusheng's words were naturally a reminder to Wang Zhonglei.

"Yes, without trust, a person cannot stand; friends share the duty of wealth," Wang Zhonglei said with a meaningful smile.

Clearly, he was also reminding Zhao Fusheng.

Zhao Fusheng chuckled and said nothing more. Some things, it was enough for each to know what was what.

After sitting for a while longer, Zhao Fusheng got up to take his leave, not going to Wang Jinghua's office.

Wang Zhonglei personally saw him to the elevator door, and they bid each other farewell.

...

...

"Where did you go?" When Zhao Fusheng got home, Fan Baobao asked curiously.

"Nowhere special, just went to the company and sat around," Zhao Fusheng said with a smile.

He didn't tell Fan Baobao what agreement he had reached with Wang Zhonglei. Some things didn't need her to know because there was no need.

"There's nothing much at school, and for work, Sister Hua said there are no arrangements for a while. I'm planning to go home. Are you coming back?" Fan Baobao said to Zhao Fusheng.

"I have nothing to do lately either. It's perfect to go back with you," Zhao Fusheng said with a smile.

In fact, he had already planned to go back. After all, September 1st, the start of the school year, was approaching. As a soon-to-be senior, Zhao Fusheng had some other ideas.

Nowadays, it was hard for him to study peacefully at school. After all, having a man in his forties spend all day in a dormitory was not a comfortable feeling.

So Zhao Fusheng planned to go back, pull some strings, and see if he could get his diploma early and leave school sooner.

Although doing so might be somewhat unfair to those classmates who studied diligently, the world had always been like this. There were inherent, insurmountable gaps between people in certain aspects.

To change your fate, you could only rely on yourself.

"Really?"

Fan Baobao was stunned and looked at Zhao Fusheng in surprise. She had thought he would stay here for a while.

Zhao Fusheng nodded: "Of course, don't forget, I've been away from home for several months too."

"Ah, that's right. I wonder if Beibei has grown taller," Fan Baobao suddenly felt a bit down. After all, being away from home was not a comfortable feeling for anyone.

Zhao Fusheng seemed to sense her change in mood, patted her on the shoulder, and whispered a few words of comfort.

Both of them were people of strong action. Since they decided to return to Ninghai, they left without delay. The next day, Zhao Fusheng bought plane tickets, and they boarded the flight back to Ninghai together.

On the plane, Zhao Fusheng and Fan Baobao talked quietly while looking out at the scenery.

"If it weren't for me, there would probably be plenty of beauties around you," Fan Baobao suddenly asked Zhao Fusheng.

The reason was simple: Zhao Fusheng had been telling her about what happened with Liu Shaomei.

Zhao Fusheng rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?"

His intention was to tell Fan Baobao that she must stay away from people who would do anything to climb the ladder, because since such people could sell themselves, selling out friends and classmates would be easy for them.

But clearly, the girl's focus wasn't on that; she had instead conjured up something else.

"Hmph, spare me. Do you think I don't know? You investor representatives are the most popular," Fan Baobao said scornfully, glancing at Zhao Fusheng. This guy really thought she was some naive little girl.

Zhao Fusheng shook his head helplessly, gave up trying to reason with Fan Baobao, and simply kept quiet.

At this point, no matter what he said, it would be wrong, so he might as well not respond. If he admitted she was right, she would think he had definitely been with those women; if he denied it, she would think he was lying.

Seeing Zhao Fusheng silent, Fan Baobao snorted and actually didn't dwell on the matter further.

She also knew that Zhao Fusheng wasn't that kind of person. If he were a real playboy, he wouldn't have stayed with her for so long.

Thinking of this, Fan Baobao felt quite proud. She had heard from Dong Chenxi that Zhao Fusheng had even known the diva Zhou Feifei, and that woman hadn't made his heart flutter, let alone anyone else.

Little did she know, Zhao Fusheng could never have any good feelings for Zhou Feifei.

After all, unless he was crazy, he wouldn't like a drunk who had thrown up in front of him twice.
