within Temptation

Chapter 201

"What? You dare not go home because you are afraid that your mother will see your head hurt?"

Han Zhi was the only one in the company who knew that I had a fight with someone last night, so I didn't hide anything from her, and honestly told the reason why I didn't dare to go home.

But Han Zhi was very surprised when he heard it. He looked at me with a pair of second eyes, and his face was full of incomprehensible expressions.I had no choice but to speak more clearly, and said, "Well, you may not know that what my mother hates the most is that I fight with others outside. If she sees this injury on my head, what happened to me last night , there must be no way to hide it from her. Didn't you see that I came to work in the company so early this morning? It was because I didn't want my mother to see that I was injured. He came out before he woke up."

While speaking, the elevator had reached the floor where the company was located. After opening the door with a ding, Han Zhi and I walked out together.

By this time, the entire company was long gone.In the empty corridor, only the footsteps of me and Han Zhi resounded.Han Zhi walked side by side with me, continued the topic just now, looked at me with a smile and said, "So, tonight you have to wait until your mother is asleep before going back, and then get up for work tomorrow morning before dawn?"

I smiled wryly and said, "How is this possible? If I keep avoiding my mother like this, I will be suspected by her sooner or later. To be honest, in order to avoid being discovered by my mother these days, I have already lied to her that the company sent me today I went on a business trip. This way, I don't have to go home, and I don't worry about arousing my mother's suspicion."

"Really? Just because you don't want your mother to know that you are fighting with people outside, you haven't come home these days?"

I nodded helplessly, sighed and said, "Do you think it's unreasonable to deceive your mother for this kind of thing?"

Han Zhi tilted her head to look at me as she walked, but she shook her head and said with a smile, "No, I don't think you want your mother to worry about you. Sometimes, white lies are necessary."

Hearing that Han Zhi was so considerate, I was grateful, nodded to her, and said thank you softly.Han Zhi smiled and said, "It's nothing. Sometimes, in order not to worry my mother, I would cheat her like this. The old man is getting old, and it's better not to let them know about some troublesome things."

While we were talking, we had reached the door of Han Zhi's assistant's office.Han Zhi took out the key and opened the door, walked in and immediately turned on the light.I took the stack of documents and hurried to Han Zhi's desk, put it down gently, and said, "By the way, Assistant Han, how much did your brother help me advance last night? I was thinking about it this afternoon." I gave it back to you, but you haven’t been here all this time. Now I happen to meet you, so shall I give it to you?”

Han Zhi smiled and walked behind the desk, saying, "You are so anxious to pay back the money, don't you really like to owe others things?"

I had already taken out my wallet from my pocket, and said with a smile, "Whether you like it or not, if you owe someone something, you will have to pay it back sooner or later, right? How much?"

Han Zhi sat down, looked at me with a smile and said, "320."

I couldn't help taking a breath, 320?My darling, Fei Leina and I didn't say much last night, did we?How do you want so much money?Could it be... the glass of green wine Fei Leina drank was extremely expensive?
However, at this time, I have no way to confirm it.My heart aches, but I still have to return the money to Han Zhi, so while I kept cursing Feleina in my heart, I counted out 320 yuan from my wallet and handed it to Han Zhi helplessly.

Han Zhi was not polite either. He reached out to take it with a smile, and said, "Since you don't have to go home at night, where are you going to sleep? Is there a place for you to live?"

I looked at the apparently missing banknotes in my wallet, thinking that I had to spend money to stay in a hotel these two days, and I hated Fei Leina even more.It was this entangled woman who bought me a drink and provoked a gang of hooligans to fight.Now it's all right, not only did I pay for the wine, but it also made me afraid to go home and stay in a hotel.When I met her, I was unlucky for eight lifetimes!
Sighing, I shook my head and said: "There is no other place, I plan to find a small hotel, just spend a night or two."

"Hotel?" Han Zhi didn't know what came to mind, and suddenly smiled mysteriously, and said, "You have to spend money to stay in a hotel, right? I think your family's conditions are not very good. Don't you feel sorry for spending such a waste of money?"

I smiled bitterly and said, "What can I do if I feel distressed? If I don't live in a hotel, where else can I live?"

Han Zhi smiled again and said, "Maybe... I can help you. I have a friend who has a vacant property in the city. It has furniture and beds, and people can live there. If she is willing to lend it to you For a day or two, wouldn't that save you the cost of staying in a hotel?"

I froze and looked at Han Zhi in disbelief.If I could have a place to live without spending money, of course I would love it.But why did Han Zhi help me save money?What good does it do her for her to do me such a favor?
After staying for a while, I said, "Assistant Han, is this too troublesome? I don't think it's good to borrow someone else's house for no reason. Or..."

Before I could finish speaking, Han Zhi interjected: "No trouble, my friend and I have a very good relationship, borrowing her house is just a matter of one sentence. How about it? If you agree, then I will call now Called her."

I……

Gathering my mind, I began to say seriously: "Assistant Han, I don't understand, why...you want to help me like this?"

Han Zhi smiled and said, "Aren't we colleagues? Do you think it's strange for colleagues to help each other? Just like you, when you saw so many things in my hand just now, didn't you come here without hesitation?" Hold it for me?"

Hearing this sentence, I was a little taken aback.Yes, not everyone in this world is selfish.My father, my mother, they are all people who are willing to help others selflessly.Maybe I'm thinking too much, Han Zhi can't get any benefits from me for such a small person.So she helped me out of kindness, right?

Thinking of this, I laughed happily, and said, "Then thank you, Assistant Han, I just don't know if your friend is willing to lend the house to a stranger like me. It's always bad if you force others Bar?"

Han Zhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I dare not tell others. My friend, as long as I speak, she will never say anything. Wait, I will call her now!"
