The murderous intention in Xiao Zheng suddenly disappeared. In just a moment, he regained his composure. Although there was still a faint coldness in his eyes, his face had returned to its natural state.
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the slightly bitter tea. The bitter taste spread on the tip of his tongue. After a moment, it turned into a sweet taste, which was very strange.
"Cooperating with someone who once tried to assassinate me." Xiao Zheng put down the tea cup with a calm smile on his lips. "Why cooperate? Kill me again?"
Shang Jingtian said regretfully: "I hope I can make up for you in other ways."
Hearing what he said, an intriguing smile flashed across Xiao Zheng's face: "Boss Shang. Even if you only regard Yan Shang as cannon fodder or as a stepping stone for your daughter. But when it comes to blood and family ties, he is still your closest relative. .Isn’t it?”
After a pause, Xiao Zheng did not give Shang Jingtian a chance to speak out, and joked: "Even if you don't care about his life or death at all, you should also consider the mood of your old Yan family, right? Compensate me? Putting yourself in such a humble position, Boss Shang, don’t you feel you have been wronged?”
Shang Jingtian's face darkened slightly. Silent.
Xiao Zheng took a puff of his e-cigarette and smiled: "Boss Shang, you don't need to worry about my affairs. If you have the energy, you'd better go and deal with Lao Yan's family affairs. As far as I know, Those two brothers and sisters of yours are very hostile to you."
After all, he didn't give Shang Jingtian any chance to breathe. He stood up and walked out of the wing: "Boss Shang, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you."
After Xiao Zheng left, Shang Yao walked out of the lounge inside. There was some sullenness on his face, but more of it was regret.
She was in the back room and heard everything clearly. At the beginning, his father suppressed Xiao Zheng in all aspects and guided Xiao Zheng's thinking. And successfully inspired the resentment and murderous intention in Xiao Zheng's body. But no one expected that Xiao Zheng would hit Shang Jingtian's weakness at the last moment. Much to his embarrassment.
"Father. He is too ignorant." Shang Yao sat in the seat in front of Xiao Zheng and said with an unhappy expression.
"Is there any?" Shang Jingtian slowly poured a cup of tea and lit another cigarette. "I think it was in vain that I made an appointment with him personally and chatted with him for so long."
"But he doesn't seem to be planning to cooperate with you." Shang Yao said regretfully.
Shang Jingtian shook his head and said solemnly: "Cooperation does not necessarily require signing a contract. It does not necessarily require reaching an agreement at the negotiating table. As long as he is doing the same thing as me, it is cooperation." After a pause, Shang Jingtian glanced at Shang Yao who suddenly realized. "Yao Yao. Don't limit everything to the present. Look further and have a bigger picture."
"Yes. Father." Shang Yao was taught.
After a moment of silence, Shang Yao suddenly asked out of curiosity: "Father, what do you think Xiao Zhenghui will do?"
"What should I do?" Shang Jingtian brewed tea slowly.
"How to deal with Lin Chaotian." Shang Yao said with a serious face. "Not to mention Xiao Zheng, even I felt angry when I heard what Lin Chaotian said to Ye Yuhua. This man is so despicable!"
"If after I finish speaking, he runs to fight against Lin Chaotian. Then he is not worthy of me leaking this bombshell news." Shang Jingtian said calmly.
You know, he paid a huge price to get this big news. Now that it was given to Xiao Zheng for free, what he needed was not for Xiao Zheng to rush into the Lin family to confront and challenge Lin Chaotian out of anger.
"Why? Are you worried that Xiao Zheng is not Lin Chaotian's opponent?" Shang Yao asked.
"Not an opponent?" Shang Jingtian asked. "Do you think Xiao Zheng is qualified to be Lin Chaotian's opponent now?"
no no!
Not even qualified!
Shang Yao was confused.
"Ye Yuhua has publicly stated that Xiao is his son-in-law. Including Lu Dashan and Bai Wuxia, these are all big shots who were once equal to Lin Chaotian. With their support, I don't think Xiao Zheng is even qualified." Shang Yao said with a look on his face. Said seriously.
Shang Jingtian shook his head slightly. He knew that he must kill Shang Yao's idea of looking down on Lin Chaotian as soon as possible. This will be the greatest bane on Shang Yao's growth path: underestimating the enemy.
"Do you know what kind of desperate situation Lin Chaotian rose from?" Shang Jingtian pursed his lips and said. "He started from scratch and went through me, Lu Dashan, Bai Wuxia, including Ye Gong's short-term suppression. To this day, he has still achieved immortal hegemony. Do you know what this means?"
Shang Yao's face was dull and speechless.
"Including me, Bai Wuxia, and Lu Dashan, who everyone thinks are equal to him, no one is his opponent at all!" Shang Jingtian sighed. "Perhaps we underestimated the enemy and underestimated Lin Chaotian's ability back then. But how could Mr. Ye make such a low-level mistake? From the time when Lin Chaotian joined the business world to when Lin Chaotian accumulated tens of billions of net worth, he had laid out A deadly situation with every step of the way. But in the end, Lin Chaotian was reborn. Not only was he not trapped to death by Ye Gong, but he became famous and soared into the sky."
"The title Lao Yao Lin was given to him by Mr. Ye himself." Shang Jingtian took a sip of tea and said slowly.
Shang Yao felt his scalp numb and his blood boiling: "Is Lin Chaotian so powerful?"
If what my father said was true, then perhaps only Lin Chaotian of the so-called four heavenly kings did not live up to his name!
Shang Jingtian said with a smile: "Some people often say that if Lu Dashan had not retired to the Pearl, his current achievements may not be as good as Lin Chaotian. Some people also say that if Bai Wuxia had not caused a big disaster and retreated to Baicheng. Now it is possible that he can check and balance Lin Chaotian. To the sky. But it’s all bullshit—”
After a pause, Shang Jingtian said meaningfully: "In my opinion, their choice back then was too wise. At least they left the game beautifully instead of being kicked out by Lin Chaotian."
Shang Yao said in disbelief: "Then Xiao Zheng, I'm afraid, can't pose any threat to Lin Chaotian? Why should we spend so much effort to cooperate with him?"
"What I want is not cooperation." Shang Jingtian shook his head slowly, and then said with great sadness. "I just want to plant a seed in his heart."
"When will it be useful?" Shang Yao asked curiously.
"It depends on him." Shang Jingtian said. "A person like Xiao Zheng will not be manipulated by others, and no one can take advantage of him. Unless he thinks he should do something, even putting a knife on his neck will have no effect."
Shang Yao nodded and said with bright eyes: "Then we will wait and see."
Shang Jingtian said with a smile: "Try this cup of tea."
"Yes. Father." Shang Yao took the tea cup and took a sip.
"What does it feel like?" Shang Jingtian asked.
"Bitter first, then sweet." Shang Yao said.
"Our hard days are over." Shang Jingtian said meaningfully. “It’s time to reap the fruits.”
