Chapter 19: Chapter 19: Carefree Junior Clerk

In the office, everyone turned their attention to the two figures, eagerly anticipating the drama that was about to unfold.

"Can’t believe how thick-skinned you are. Looks like I’ve been wasting my breath for over an hour, huh?"

Xie Zhifu clenched the thermos in his hand—this guy was shameless.

"How do you know I was scolding you? Maybe I was praising you."

Lin Fan crossed his legs and sneered, "You’d better not mess with me, or the director might have to invite me over for a sit-down. If that happens, I won’t come out for less than three hours, and we’ll see who really suffers!"

"You..."

Xie Zhifu, face flushed with anger, pointed at Lin Fan. Although he didn’t grasp the hidden meaning in his words, he felt a sense of inexplicable humiliation. Just as he was about to explode, Qu Liping’s cough echoed from the doorway.

Seeing his wife arrive, Xie Zhifu immediately perked up, puffing out his chest in expectation of her support, only for Qu Liping to glare at him harshly: "Why aren’t you staying in your car, you’re always running to the office for what?"

"Ah..."

This sudden reprimand stunned Xie Zhifu, his face wearing an expression of shock as he looked towards Qu Liping. Why was his own wife turning her elbow outwards and siding with that youngster? Meanwhile, the others were murmuring among themselves.

"What ’ah’? Get out of here quickly. I’m warning you, don’t hang around the office if there’s nothing important, or I’ll make you go live in the rural towns below!"

Qu Liping, with a stern face, could no longer spare Xie Zhifu’s feelings. Provoking Lin Fan again could get her into loads of trouble. This time her strike was particularly vicious; even now, her legs felt somewhat floaty.

"Okay... okay!"

Liping to lash out at him, but as someone who always relied on his wife, he dared not talk back, hurriedly grabbing his thermos and heading out, though his eyes brimmed with
