Ah Man's Guilt and Resolution

After checking out, the two of them were about to part ways in front of the hotel. Zhao Yuetong, who had been silent all along, suddenly looked at A Man, and her beautiful smile bloomed again.

"Senior Man Hao, may I have your phone number?"

A Man was taken aback. He was about to recite his phone number, but what came out was: "I, I'm married. I'm sorry."

...

"Ah... I see." After a brief silence, Zhao Yuetong's originally clear eyes seemed to dim a lot, and the disappointment that was hard to hide appeared on her delicate and pretty face, but it disappeared in an instant.

"Well, okay, goodbye." Without waiting for A Man to react, Zhao Yuetong quickly got into a taxi parked in front of the hotel and disappeared in front of A Man.

Looking at the taxi driving away, A Man helplessly scratched his hair, feeling an indescribable taste in his heart. He was not stupid; he could see that Zhao Yuetong had a clear preference for him, but he could not accept it. A one-night stand had already made him feel too guilty towards Yuan Zhen, and he could not do more things that would be unforgivable to his wife. Besides, Yuan Zhen loved him so much.

Lighting a cigarette, A Man took a couple of depressed puffs, looked at his watch, and then hailed a taxi. It was getting late, and he had to go to the company. The new project that started yesterday, as the department manager, he could not be negligent.

On the way, A Man suddenly thought of a question. Zhao Yuetong just now seemed to call him "senior"? Could it be that she and I are classmates? And she also knows my name.

A Man's full name is Man Hao, an ordinary yet seemingly interesting name.

Knowing his name, either she is really an alumna, or she found out from his colleagues last night. A Man was too low-key during college, and his only "charm" was that he was disciplined by the school for fighting with a rich second-generation student, so A Man couldn't remember if there was anyone named Zhao Yuetong in their school.

Soon A Man didn't have time to ponder these things. When he arrived at the company, he still had work to deal with. This newly won development project was also a big deal in the company. Although A Man didn't come in the morning, work couldn't stop, and he couldn't let other departments gossip. He first made a simple report to the general manager of the company, then returned to his department to see the progress of the two groups and what problems there were. In the afternoon, A Man spent time with his department writing code, testing, and adjusting modules. No one mentioned the events of the previous night, as if in Huahai, things like last night were a very normal thing, happening every day.

After work, A Man ate something outside and returned to the apartment he rented in Huahai. At this moment, A Man was in a good mood because he was holding a letter, a letter from home, a letter from his wife Yuan Zhen. Sometimes A Man felt that his wife was quite interesting. In this era of information overload, his wife was not very interested in mobile phones and computers. She seemed to be living in an era of men farming and women weaving at home. The mobile phone was still the one A Man insisted on getting for her when he went back last time, but even so, Yuan Zhen was still keen on expressing her thoughts through letters, and the mobile phone was used more often to tell the time.

A Man looked at the letter in his hand, which was actually a registered letter. It seemed quite heavy inside, and he didn't know what the little girl had put in it. After changing his clothes, A Man couldn't wait to open the envelope. Inside was a small piece of paper and two exquisite little keys. Unfolding the paper, the beautiful handwriting jumped on the paper, and the words were full of missing A Man. Looking at the loving words, A Man immediately threw all his troubles into the clouds, but after reading, his heart was filled with guilt towards his wife. Suddenly, A Man made a decision in his heart. He wanted to tell his wife the truth about the one-night stand when he went home next time and ask for her forgiveness. After making this decision, A Man felt like a stone had fallen to the ground.

After reading the letter, A Man picked up the two little keys and was puzzled. What were these? Could it be that the house had changed the lock? But the letter didn't mention this. Suddenly, he remembered that his wife mentioned in the letter that there would be a surprise for him when he went back. A Man thought it might be related to these keys, but he couldn't go back immediately, so he had to suppress the doubts in his heart and his missing for his wife. Then he made a phone call, only to find that the mobile phone was turned off. This girl must have forgotten to charge it again. In the end, A Man gave up the idea of calling his parents. Anyway, it would be the weekend in a few days, and he would go back to see what tricks this little wife had come up with. Thinking of Yuan Zhen's cute and lovely appearance, her well-proportioned figure, and her obedient yet shy and wanton appearance in bed, A Man felt extremely happy.

The development work of the project was progressing normally, and A Man was handling the matters in hand in an orderly manner. When it was almost time to get off work at noon, a text message lit up the screen of his mobile phone. It was an unknown number, and the content was also very simple.

"Can you accompany me for a cup of coffee?" There was no signature, but A Man immediately guessed who the owner of the message was. Although he didn't know how Zhao Yuetong knew his mobile phone number, A Man thought of the passion of that night and couldn't help but be a little distracted. To be honest, he really liked Zhao Yuetong's craziness and the actions that catered to his preferences, which made him a bit unable to stop. He wanted to refuse but couldn't help replying, "Where?". Soon the other party sent an address, and A Man looked at it and smiled bitterly. He didn't know if this crazy girl did it on purpose or something, but the café she mentioned was not far from his company, just two blocks away, about five minutes on foot.

When A Man arrived at the café Zhao Yuetong mentioned, she was sitting in a corner leisurely drinking coffee, and there were some snacks on the table.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting." A Man sat down gracefully.

"Oh, I've just arrived not long ago." Zhao Yuetong looked at A Man naturally, with a faint smile on her delicate cheeks.

"I don't know what you like to drink, so I just ordered some food first."

"Oh, I'm fine with anything." A Man didn't know what to say. In his mind, men and women who have a one-night stand rarely intersect again. This meeting made him a bit uncomfortable, not to mention that he was a married man.

After a while of silence, it was Zhao Yuetong who broke the deadlock first.

"Are you wondering how I know your phone number?"

"A bit." A Man smiled a bit embarrassed.

"Still an IT elite, how can you be so stupid? You are the development department manager of Huahai KD branch. Just search online, and you can find your phone number." Zhao Yuetong said a little proudly.

"Oh, I see, I really didn't pay attention, haha."

"Don't laugh, let's talk about something serious. I have something I want to ask for your help. I don't know if you will give me face or not? Manager Man." A Man didn't expect Zhao Yuetong's words to change so quickly. Just now, there was a bit of flirting, and now it suddenly became serious.

"It seems you really know a lot about me. I don't know what Miss Zhao needs my help with." A more formal conversation actually made A Man relax a lot.

"Oh? It seems you know my name. I thought you didn't know anything about me." The formal conversation just now suddenly became a bit coquettish, and A Man almost choked on the snacks in his mouth, but he still told the truth: "Well, I saw your ID card that day."

"Oh, I see." A flash of light appeared in Zhao Yuetong's eyes, and she continued:

"Well, it's like this, I have a project and I want you to take a look and give me some advice."

"Project? What project? You know, I'm just doing program development at KD. I don't know how I can help you."

"Of course, it's your expertise. Otherwise, why would I ask you? It's just that the location is a bit far, in Yanjing. I don't know if Manager Man has time."

"You mean you want me to go to Yanjing with you?" A Man was taken aback by her words and didn't adapt for a while. Up to now, he hasn't figured out what Zhao Yuetong does, and he took her to inspect the project in Yanjing.

"Why? Are you afraid I'll sell you?" Zhao Yuetong took a sip of coffee and smiled.

"No, I didn't mean that. It's just, I

don't know what Miss Zhao does, and all of a sudden we're off to Yanjing. Moreover, I need to check my schedule; I should at least ask for some time off from the company." A Man thought that a day trip to Yanjing to discuss a project wouldn't be feasible, and with their current project just starting, taking time off at this point didn't seem quite appropriate.

"I won't take up your working hours. We can leave right after you finish work next Friday, and we should be able to make it back by Sunday afternoon. How does that sound? As for what I do, it's similar to you, just working for someone else." Zhao Yuetong seemed to know what he was thinking, and as she spoke, she took out a document from her bag and slid it across to A Man.

"Here's an introduction to the project. Take a look when you have time."

A Man gave a wry smile. Zhao Yuetong, you've already given me the document, and you're asking me how it sounds? Is this really seeking my opinion? A Man suddenly felt that he and Zhao Yuetong didn't seem like strangers who had just met, but rather like partners who had been working together for years.

A Man glanced at the document and put it away.

"Alright, next week should be fine, but let me make it clear, my capabilities are limited, and I hope I won't disappoint you then."

"It's okay, as long as you can go, that's all that matters." Zhao Yuetong's eyelashes fluttered, and she gave a bright smile.

A Man suddenly thought of something, looking at Zhao Yuetong, who seemed to have successfully plotted something, and asked:

"Did you attend Jiangzhou Institute of Technology for university?"

"Ah? You already know?" This time Zhao Yuetong was clearly taken aback. She didn't expect A Man to ask about this.

"Know what? I was just wondering why you called me senior that day." A Man confirmed his previous guess, but he still couldn't remember when he had seen Zhao Yuetong at school.

"I was a year behind you, and I studied electronic commerce. Senior," Zhao Yuetong deliberately emphasized the word "senior."

"Well, that night at the bar..." A Man suddenly felt his mouth a bit dry.

"That night, you really didn't recognize me, sigh..." Zhao Yuetong sighed, her small face slightly red, lowering her head, looking very much like a grievance-laden young wife. A Man had no choice but to pick up his drink to cover his awkward question, not knowing how to respond. But then Zhao Yuetong's next coquettish remark almost made A Man spray his drink.

"That night, it was my first time..."

Although A Man was not a seasoned lover, he had some common sense. That night, Zhao Yuetong did not bleed, and how could she claim it was her first time, especially considering her wildness that night, which in no way seemed like it was her first time, even though she was quite tight down there. But A Man didn't ask, not knowing how to bring it up. For Zhao Yuetong, despite their physical intimacy, there was still some strangeness.

"I knew you wouldn't believe me! But, but, it really was my first time." Seeing A Man's expression, Zhao Yuetong seemed a bit anxious, her voice louder, then realizing there were people around, she lowered her head in embarrassment, pouting her lips, a bit aggrieved, and continued: "I know what you're thinking, but I'm not that kind of person, and I don't often go to nightclubs. That day, that day, it just happened that my home was near that bar, and I saw you, so, so, I went to that bar." Zhao Yuetong stole a glance at A Man, whose expression was a bit strange, seeming to muster up courage, and continued: "I, I like those things, and I've played with them secretly at home, so, so..."

Her voice grew smaller and smaller, but A Man still understood what she meant. He just didn't expect Zhao Yuetong to tell him so much, so frankly. At this point, A Man finally confirmed that this beautiful junior really liked him. He just couldn't figure out why she went to the bar to find him, and even brought ropes and gags, how could she be sure he would like these things? But the next words left A Man stunned. At this moment, Zhao Yuetong, who had opened the floodgates of conversation, seemed to be hiding nothing and poured her heart out to A Man.

Zhao Yuetong's family had some money, as to the extent she didn't say, only that during school, some boys were either attracted to her beauty or her family's wealth. Among them was a dandy rich second-generation who often pursued her, but Zhao Yuetong was not a casual girl. Later, that rich second-generation started to flirt with one of her good friends, who was the girlfriend of A Man's roommate at the time. The rich second-generation thought about taking down Zhao Yuetong's friend first and then getting closer to her, even fantasizing about a threesome. Later, A Man fought with that rich second-generation because of his roommate, and it was at that time that A Man appeared in Zhao Yuetong's sight. A simple fight left a ripple in her heart, and A Man's low profile at the time instead attracted Zhao Yuetong's attention.

"You had no idea how much of a sensation you caused back then, but you were like a flash in the pan, disappearing after being disciplined,He only knew how to study and didn't care about anything else." Zhao Yuetong's cheeks were rosy, seemingly reminiscing about something, a bit shy, and excited.

"It was then that I started to pay attention to you, to follow you, to go to the places you've been, the library, and the internet café you frequented, the computer you used."

Hearing this, A Man suddenly thought of something, his expression a bit unnatural, and he was also a bit nervous.

"You mean, you went to the internet café I usually went to, and used the computer I used?"

"Yes, I just wanted to know more about you, but then, I found out... about you..."

A Man was nervous, revealing excitement and stimulation, feeling his palms starting to sweat. He knew that back then, in addition to looking up some study materials, he often visited some foreign websites, and at that time, the computers did not have hardware or software like restore cards, and at the same time, A Man did not deliberately clear his internet history.

"So you mean, you, you know everything?" When A Man asked these words, he felt his heart beating faster.

"Mm-hmm." Zhao Yuetong made a sound and didn't say anything more, and A Man began to feel disheveled.

At that time, A Man was not just browsing SM and such, but even heavier stuff. He really didn't know what kind of mentality this beautiful girl sitting opposite him had when she saw it, and at that time, it was not enough to describe it as abnormal, and yet now Zhao Yuetong could tell her these things, obviously, she had completely accepted it and seemed to enjoy it. A Man gave a wry smile, wondering if this was leading a good girl astray, or a deep-seated "bad" one.

A Man finally understood why Zhao Yuetong had prepared so many props in her bag that night, for him and for herself. At the same time, he also understood to whom Zhao Yuetong had given her first time. A Man didn't know whether this was good news or bad news.
