Wang Zheng walked along the roadside with unusual determination and decisiveness, showing no intention to turn back.
He didn't know why Su Tianran had come looking for him today, nor did he need to. Li Yiran was still in critical care and hadn't woken up yet, while he was hanging out with the chief culprit of the Su family's eldest son—what kind of situation was this
The air in the capital felt familiar, even though it was shrouded in smog without a trace of blue sky. At least it was better than the scorching heat waves in Biralbia.
Wang Zheng didn't call his familiar friends; instead, he walked briskly forward. After being hospitalized for over a month, he felt as if his body had rusted. Walking with large strides made him feel alive and capable of moving forward.
If not to move forward, what else could be done His enemies were urging him to advance, pushing him to eliminate them sooner.
The General Military Hospital was truly far away. Wang Zheng walked briskly for two hours before his stomach began rumbling. He decided to duck into a ramen shop and order a large bowl of beef ramen.
With steam rising, the hot beef ramen was served. Wang Zheng ladled several spoonfuls of red chili oil on top. After so many days in the hospital recuperating and being told what he could and couldn't eat, Comrade Wang's mouth had grown extremely bland. His food tasted flavorless, and his spirits were low. As expected, after taking a bite of the spicy beef ramen with its aromatic broth, Wang Zheng immediately felt full of vigor and his mood lifted.
In the world of gourmets, eating is a very important matter. When life's pressures make you feel depressed, without hope, consider indulging in a bowl of super-spicy beef ramen. Letting those unpleasant feelings sweat out would naturally improve your spirits.
While Wang Zheng was eating noodles, Su Tianran was sitting in a drafty Rolls-Royce Phantom that was slowly moving forward. At this time of year, the capital city was still chilly, and with such an open vehicle, one would be exposed to the wind.
However, it seemed that Master Su didn’t feel cold at all; for him, the weather wasn’t significant—the real chill came from within. In contrast to Wang Zheng, who ate steaming hot beef noodles and sweated from the spiciness while still holding his chopsticks, Su Tianran’s heart was already as cold as ice.
"Master, shall we go get the car repaired" The driver試探性地問道。兩個小時過去了,蘇天燃一句話都冇有說,勞斯萊斯雖然是豪車,但是開著冇了四麵玻璃的豪車,彆人一樣會把你當傻逼的。
The driver could have turned on the air conditioning while driving, but he hadn’t and was now freezing and shivering.
"No need. Keep going; don't stop. I need to stay alert." Su Tianran said indifferently, his tone somewhat vacant.
“Yes.” The driver gritted his teeth, enduring the looks of pity from passersby and the bone-chilling wind that had already penetrated him as he slowly continued driving forward.
This world is full of disappointments, but when these disappointments accumulate over time, leading to a qualitative change, they can result in unfavorable outcomes.
Right now, Su Tianran felt like he was on the edge of a cliff; too much pressure had him gasping for breath, as if at any moment he could collapse or break down. He seemed like a kite caught in a fierce wind, held up only by a thin string that could snap at any moment.
After Wang Zheng drank every last drop of the beef broth from his bowl, Su Tianran finally said, “Get the car repaired and I’ll take a taxi to leave.”
The poor driver, relieved like never before, quickly agreed, afraid that Su Tianran would change his mind. He was almost frozen stiff.
"What a relief! Eating until you're full is the best." Wang Zheng put down his bowl with satisfaction. After paying for the meal, he left with his backpack.
Zhang Mingqi was looking at her report with a lowered head. Ever since she learned of Wang Zheng's return, she could finally breathe easy and sleep soundly every day.
However, Zhang Mingqi drastically shortened her rest time now. She cut down her eight hours of daily sleep to just six hours in order to create the perfect conditions for the all-out offensive initiated by Wang Zheng upon his return.
After signing that agreement with Lewandow, Zhang Mingqi had placed herself and the entire Blue Sea Group on a knife's edge. It was a high-stakes gamble where there could only be victory or defeat, life or death.
Yet she felt no regrets; for Wang Zheng and her deceased mother, she would see this through despite how difficult it might be. She had no fear at all.
Zhang Mingqi put down her pen, took a weary sip of coffee, gently massaged her temples, then picked up the phone once more.
"Secretary Li, write down these points: First, draft the resolution regarding the acquisition of clairvoyant diamonds within two hours. Also, urge the design department to speed up on the feasibility study report and risk assessment report. They’ve already been given ten days; if they don’t submit the final drafts today, have both department heads start contacting headhunters for new positions."
"Second, at three o'clock this afternoon, ask the Investment Department Director and Financial Director to come to my office for a meeting. I want them to present a feasibility analysis on blocking Su family enterprises in the stock market. Whether they agree or disagree, they must provide convincing reasons."
"Third, there's a fundraising banquet tonight hosted by the Capital City Clothing Chamber of Commerce and the Capital Municipal Government. Help me decline it; I'm too busy to make it."
"Also, after work this afternoon, tally up all the employees who will be working overtime and have the restaurant prepare their dinner. Ensure that the overtime compensation is issued promptly."
Zhang Mingqi hung up the phone, picked up her mobile, dialed a number: "Come to my office for a moment."
"Now I'm very busy."
"Right now," Zhang Mingqi hung up. She then leaned back in her chair comfortably and took off her glasses, preparing to close her eyes for a brief rest. With so many things to handle and working non-stop all day long, even this powerful woman in business was starting to feel overwhelmed.
Zhang Mingqi didn't expect that what she had intended as just a short nap would turn into an hour-long sleep; it wasn't until the knock on her door that she woke from deep slumber.
"Come in," Zhang Mingqi rubbed her eyes and adjusted her clothes before speaking.
The one who entered was a young man wearing a suit with a tie, whose face vaguely resembled Zhang Mingqi's.
This visitor was none other than Zhang Mingqi’s younger brother, Zhang Mingquan, once the notorious brat of the capital city, now starting from the lowest position at Lanhai Group as a store salesperson and steadily climbing to regional sales manager with unadulterated achievements.stard; you won't get a taste of it anymore. Don’t say I didn’t warn you," Han Xinye laughed even more happily.Without revealing anything suspiciously from the rearview mirror, Wang Zheng retracted his...
