Chapter 707 Obsessions

Jiang Zhe’s phone rang after he had a few glasses. He stood up to answer the phone call. Upon hanging up, he came back to tell Yu Xiang apologetically that his boss wanted him to work overtime, so he had to leave.

Yu Xiang wasn’t pleased. “Why do you have to work at this hour? Don’t you think your boss is being too harsh to you?”

Jiang Zhe flashed a helpless smile and answered, “There’s nothing I can do about it. My boss is also working overtime himself. He’s a workaholic.”

“That’s his problem. No matter how much he likes to work, he has no right to ask others to work overtime just to keep him company,” Yu Xiang grumbled.

“Yu Xiang, the job market is so competitive now. It’s not easy to get a job nowadays. I have no choice but to work overtime.” Jiang Zhe smiled bitterly.

“So? Are you just going to leave me here?” Yu Xiang asked coquettishly.

“I’m sorry…”

“Promise me you’ll buy me a meal tomorrow. Otherwise, I’m not letting you leave!”

“Okay. I’ll get back to you on that tomorrow.”

“No! I want you to promise me now,” Yu Xiang purred.

“All right, I promise you. If nothing comes up tomorrow, I’ll definitely buy you a meal.”

“That’s more like it!” Yu Xiang was elated.

By the time Jiang Zhe arrived at the office, it was already half past ten at night.

The moment Jiang Zhe entered, Nan Chen frowned when he detected the stench of alcohol on his body.
