Once everyone left, Xiao Zheng casually called for a waiter and randomly ordered a table full of dishes, as well as two bottles of Maotai, muttering: "Miss Shang, you called me over just to be cannon fodder?"
When Shang Yao heard this, she smiled slightly and said, "Boss Xiao is too serious. I'm determined to cooperate with you. But my father wants me to abandon you and join Bai Wushuang's embrace. Isn't this disadvantageous to you? "
Xiao Zheng laughed involuntarily, pursing his lips: "You really had a falling out with your father?"
"It's not a falling out. It's just that we have different ideals and opinions. "Shang Yao avoided the main point.
Xiao Zheng heard this and was sure that the Shang father and daughter's falling out was even worse than the Lin father and daughter.
Lin Chaotian and Lin Huayin's falling out seemed very serious. But it was only because of a single Xiao Zheng. And a person's opinion of another person might not change for a lifetime, but it could also change overnight. Although Xiao Zheng did not expect Lin Laoyao to change his opinion of him. But as long as he ignored himself and put his thoughts on Lin Huayin. There might be a day where they can reconcile.
On the other hand, the Shang father and daughter. They had a conflict because of their interests. Conflict. Interests were definitely the driving force behind the development of society, but at the same time, they were weapons of destruction. No matter if it was a world war or a broken family. Most of them were caused by interests. Even if it was a conflict between husband and wife, more than half of them were related to interests.
So from these aspects, the relationship between Shang Yao and Shang Jingtian was already in tatters, unable to withstand a single blow.
Xiao Zheng felt a bit guilty, but he also believed that the main reason for their conflict was definitely because of their own interests. And not because of Xiao Zheng's interference.
To make Xiao Zheng believe that Shang Yao was going against her father for his sake, going against the huge interests. He wouldn't believe it even if he became a ghost …
After chatting for a while, the two drank Maotai and ate delicious food. The atmosphere was quite harmonious.
"Mr Xiao. You don't seem to be in a good mood. "Shang Yao sharply captured the subtle changes on Xiao Zheng's face. He raised his cup. "Say something to cheer me up."
Xiao Zheng had no choice but to clink glasses with her and teased, "Miss Shang, you're really black-bellied. Building your own happiness on the pain of others. "
Shang Yao smiled and asked, "Is it very serious?"
Xiao Zheng drank a cup of Maotai and slowly said, "It's very serious." After a short pause, he gave Shang Yao a meaningful look. "Perhaps your father's decision was not wrong. Rather than crossing the river by groping for stones with me, it's more practical to pick up the leftovers. "
Hearing Xiao Zheng's words, Shang Yao's face sank slightly. She put down her glass and said: "Boss Xiao. Are you insulting me? "
"Hmm?" Xiao Zheng was taken aback and asked curiously. "What's wrong?"
"Do you think I'm cooperating with you just to take advantage of that tiny bit of profit?" Shang Yao asked.
"I don't think so." Xiao Zheng shook his head with a bitter smile.
He already knew about Shang Yao's ambition.
Compared to Sophia's hasty rise to power, compared to Princess Ling La's circumstances. Shang Yao's struggle was more spontaneous, without any external force to spur her on. It could even be said that the former two were more or less helpless. Shang Yao, on the other hand, was a real strong woman, a woman with great ambition.
How could she be satisfied with a tiny bit of profit? What she wanted was to look down on everyone with the attitude of a victor!
This was probably the main reason why she disdained to cooperate with Bai Wushuang.
"If that's the case. Then please pay attention to your words in the future, Mr Xiao. "Shang Yao's tone changed and gradually became gentle.
Xiao Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "You women really don't recognize me. It's much faster than flipping through a book. "
"Seems like Mr Xiao has a deep understanding." Shang Yao smiled meaningfully.
Xiao Zheng hurriedly stopped this topic, took a sip of Maotai and said, "Your father must have his reasons for doing this. Unfortunately, he won't tell me. "
"Of course he won't tell me." Shang Yao smiled bitterly.
If it was before she took over the Yan family, before she listened to Shang Jingtian. Maybe Shang Jingtian would give her some pointers, or leak some information.
But now — — he wouldn't tell Shang Yao anything. He wouldn't give her any pointers.
After the meal, Xiao Zheng finished a bottle of Maotai, and Shang Yao also drank more than half. Her pretty face was blushing, indescribably charming. Xiao Zheng put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up and said, "Thank you Miss Shang for your hospitality, I still have to go to work later. I'll leave first. "
"You want to leave after eating?" Shang Yao said with a smile.
Xiao Zheng smiled, "Don't tell me Miss Shang wants to peel off a layer of my skin?"
"Let's leave the mischief for now to deal with the enemy." Shang Yao smiled. "Mr Xiao is under a lot of pressure right now. I can help you lighten your load. "
"How do we subtract?" Xiao Zheng raised his eyebrows, his interest piqued.
"Do you remember when I told you about the four forces of the older generation?" Shang Yao said meaningfully.
"I can't forget." Xiao Zheng nodded.
"Grandpa didn't want to tell me. Maybe he'll reveal some now? "Shang Yao said with a smile. "Come with me?"
Xiao Zheng smiled, "That's what I'm thinking."
…
Nothing good happened to him when he came to the Yan family. He even offended the entire Yan family. He felt a little awkward coming with Shang Yao.
"Don't be nervous." Shang Yao could tell what Xiao Zheng was thinking. "My grandpa isn't that petty. And he has high opinions of you. Now that we're allies, he won't have any opinions of you. "
Xiao Zheng smiled, "If anything goes wrong, I'll have to trouble Miss Shang to cooperate."
When Shang Yao heard this, she smiled calmly and said, "I will be waiting for your orders."
After entering the living room, Xiao Zheng bumped into Yan Hong, who lived in the Yan family for a long time. The latter had an irreconcilable grudge against Xiao Zheng. She only nodded and didn't say anything.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zheng sighed in his heart. This was the reality. For the sake of benefits, even if they had to cut off their son's arm or indirectly kill their son's enemy, they could bury the hatchet.
In the face of benefits, who could stay true to themselves and not compromise?
Xiao Zheng firmly believed that Elder Lin was one of them.
After passing through the winding path, the two of them arrived at Yan Shichang's loft. As soon as they entered, Xiao Zheng smelled a strong aroma of tea.
"High-grade Da Hong Pao tea," Xiao Zheng praised.
"You know your stuff." Yan Shichang's hearty voice came from the study. It was as if there had never been any misunderstanding between him and Xiao Zheng. He raised his cup. "Would you like a sip?"
"Thank you."
Xiao Zheng took the teacup and took a whiff of it. He said, "Good tea."
"Life is full of ups and downs. A sip of tea can solve all your worries." Yan Shichang smiled as he took a sip of the Da Hong Pao tea. "Boss Xiao, I'm glad you came to see me. I'm glad. "
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng and Yan Shichang looked at each other and smiled, "It is my honor to be able to drink tea personally brewed by Old Master."
Shang Yao was a little mushy. She pouted and said, "Not long ago, you were trying to kill each other. Even if you want to show off your magnanimity, you don't have to be so disgusting, right? "
