"It's not that serious . . . " Qin Chu responded faintly .
"This . . . really isn't something the vice director would do . " Looking at those pictures, Zhang Manlin added fuel to the flame, sounding as if she felt bad for Qin Chu .
"I'm not mad she had dinner with that man, I'm just mad that she said she was going to work overtime and therefore couldn't attend the business gathering tonight . That obviously wasn't the case . "
"So . . . Vice Director Huo lied to you and had dinner with that man instead?" Zhang Manlin asked .
Qin Chu looked down but didn't respond .

"Do you know that guy though?" she asked again .
Yeah, he's our high school classmate . "
"Oh, if that's the case, I'm sure nothing happened . Plus, Vice Director Huo doesn't look like someone who would cheat, am I right?" Zhang Manlin said fakely .
"It's fine that they went to dinner, the problem is she lent him five million yuan . "
"Um, five million yuan? Vice Director Huo sure is rich . . . "

"It's all my money, she doesn't earn that much . Five million isn't a small figure," Qin Chu said on purpose .
Carefully observing Qin Chu's facial expressions, Zhang Manlin tested the waters . "Is it really true? Maybe it's just a rumor . No matter how rich you guys are, five million yuan is still a lot to lend to a friend . I think you should look into this . Vice Director Huo might be innocent and you might've wronged her . . . "
It seemed like she was talking in favor of Huo Mian, but a smart person would notice that her comment would only make things worse .
"I've looked into it already, it's true . "
"You investigated Vice Director Huo? I thought . . . " Zhang Manlin paused on purpose .

"What did you think?" Qin Chu raised an eyebrow .
"I thought . . . you loved each other so much that you would trust each other with your own lives," Zhang Manlin replied .
"Haha, I used to trust her, but recently . . . she's always been coming home late and barely even takes care of the twins . Those who don't know she's married would assume she's single . In the beginning, I thought she was really busy, but later I realized that . . . " Qin Chu's voice trailed off .
"Realized what?" Zhang Manlin asked carefully .
"Once, my daughters and I visited the hospital, and we saw her flirting with a doctor called Liu Ze . "
"Liu Ze? Oh, I know who he is . He's good looking, from a rich background, and drives around that flashy purple Ferrari . . . But I heard that he's just classmates with Vice Director Huo . Don't you know him too?"
"What classmates? He left after the first semester, and Mian and I barely interacted with him during that time . That's why her actions hurt me, I had her followed because I became disappointed in her actions . That's how I found out that she lent Wei Dong five million yuan . "
"If that's really the case, then Vice Director Huo is really in the wrong . Why can't she treasure a great husband like you?"
"So, do you still think we really love each other?" Qin Chu looked Zhang Manlin in the eyes ever-so-sincerely .
Her face immediately turned red; Qin Chu had never looked at her like this before . . .
