Shang Yao rushed to Linghu Zhu's house in Beijing.
It was a duplex in the city center. The decoration was gorgeous and grand. There was no intention of saving money at all. It was more in line with Linghu Zhu's style. It was outstanding.
Shang Yao had been there a few times, but her mood this time was different from the previous times.
She was very angry and also a little disappointed that iron did not meet her expectations.
Why would a young talent like him do such a sneaky thing? Moreover, it was against Xiao Zheng.
She admitted that between Linghu Zhu and Xiao Zheng, she chose Xiao Zheng unreservedly. But was this just a personal bias in his emotions? More importantly, it was business considerations, right?
At least, that was what Shang Yao thought.
Once such a mindset was formed, she vetoed Linghu Zhu's bad behavior even more.
Assassination?
Wasn't he afraid of being abandoned by the higher-ups?
It should be noted that businessmen who had reached the pinnacle did not have a close relationship with high-rise buildings, or even a complex network of relationships.
On the surface, any country would severely criticize the so-called officials and businessmen. But could it be avoided in reality? Not only could it not, but it would also become more and more intense.
Therefore, from Shang Yao's point of view, Linghu Zhu's behavior was too rash, and he did not know the immensity of heaven and earth.
Let's not talk about the negative impact it would cause in the circle. Could he beat Xiao Zheng with his strength alone?
Why did he want to be a fugitive?
When Shang Yao appeared in the spacious and bright living room, Linghu Zhu had already prepared two exquisite breakfasts. Moreover, he made them himself.
Linghu Zhu invited Shang Yao to take a seat and said considerately, "If I knew you were coming, I would have bought more ingredients last night." "I didn't have enough time, so I didn't prepare enough. Yao Yao, just deal with it. "
After Shang Yao sat down, she did not exchange pleasantries. She snorted and said, "You know I'm not here to eat your breakfast."
"Of course. My culinary skills are not worthy of you coming here personally. "Linghu Zhu smiled, but he still poured a glass of fruit juice for Shang Yao enthusiastically. "Then tell me why you're here?"
Shang Yao pushed the juice aside and stared at Linghu Zhu. "What did you do last night? Do you dare tell me? "
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Linghu Zhu retorted. "Yao Yao, in your heart, am I the kind of person who dare not to admit what I did?"
"What's the value of such a responsibility!?" Shang Yao said angrily. "Xiao Zheng used to be your closest business partner, and he's your closest business partner. Even if we have a falling out now. However, it was done through legal channels and proper means. What about you? Look at what you've done! Aren't you afraid that Uncle Linghu will be disappointed? "
Linghu Zhu did not show any anger when he heard that. He only slowly took two sips of fruit juice, lit a cigarette, and said, "Speaking of heartbreak, I believe that no father would be more heartbroken than Uncle Shang, right?"
Shang Yao's expression changed abruptly, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
Linghu Zhu had reopened the scar that Shang Yao had been avoiding. She never expected that Linghu Zhu would bring up the past in front of her.
"Yao Yao. I have no intention of attacking you. I just want to tell you that be it you or me, when we do something, there must be sufficient reasons. For example, you do it because you love him, and I do it because I hate him, "Linghu Zhu said slowly. "The reason is very simple."
"I'm afraid it's not that simple!" Shang Yao said with a frown. "Is it because you hate him, or because you are unwilling to be suppressed by him?"
"Is there a difference?" Linghu Zhu pursed his lips. "It doesn't matter if he is suppressing me or plotting against me. In the end, it only makes me hate him even more. I want to kill him even more! "
"You're finally willing to admit it?" Shang Yao asked sternly. "You were the one who carried out the assassination last night?"
"Did I deny it?" Linghu Zhu shrugged. "Even if I deny it to anyone, I will not deny it to you. Just like in the past, I will always put you in the most important position. "
These words caught Shang Yao off guard.
She took a deep breath and said word by word, "That's why I'm here to persuade you to turn back."
"Turn back?" Linghu Zhu suddenly raised her voice. "Yao Yao, how do you think I should turn back? Should I continue to stay in my hometown like my father? That's not the life I want, and it's not the life my father wants either. "
"Those are all excuses!" Shang Yao said in a deep voice. "Even if there is no big entertainment, can't you start a business again? The compensation Xiao Zheng gave you was not low, and he even kept your shares. Why do you still want to go against him? "
"Listen to your tone." Linghu Zhu was finally angry. "Whatever Xiao Zheng does is right, even if he takes away my capital to reach the top. In your eyes, it is only natural. As for me, if I do anything out of line, I will let him down, and the world down. Is that so? "
"Yao Yao. Don't you feel anything about how I have treated you all these years? Fine, let's say you like Xiao Zheng and worship Xiao Zheng. I won't force you, and I won't force you to accept me. But the feelings we have for each other for so many years really cannot compare to the meager affection that Xiao Zheng has given you? "Linghu Zhu said in a deep voice.
Shang Yao stared straight at Linghu Zhu and said without any emotion, "If I don't care about the feelings between us, do you think I will still come to persuade you today? Will I still bite the bullet and call Xiao Zheng early in the morning to ask him to let you go? " Would you still bite the bullet and call Xiao Zheng early in the morning to ask him to let you go? "
"Linghu Zhu, this is probably the last time I see you. As long as you are willing to turn back, your future will be limitless. But if you are stubborn … "Shang Yao said coldly. "I have never seen Xiao Zheng fail, and this time, he will not." "I will not fall at the same place twice!" Shang Yao said in a cold voice.
"I will not fall at the same place twice!" Linghu Zhu said in a deep voice.
Shang Yao tried her best to restrain herself, but there was nothing she could do.
She slowly stood up and stared at Linghu Zhu as if she was looking at a dead man. "Then you are on your own."
After saying that, she turned around to leave.
However, Linghu Zhu's cold and emotionless voice slowly came from behind her.
"Before you stood up, I had even changed my mind. But the way you looked at me at the end made me feel that I was still too kind. And too weak. "
Linghu Zhu slowly stood up and said with an indifferent expression, "Since you have decided to cut all ties with me, it seems that I do not need to care about our cheap friendship."
Shang Yao turned her head slightly and asked, "Are you trying to assassinate me?"
"Not necessarily." Linghu Zhu shook his head and shrugged. "I just want to use you."
