They were in complete control of the situation. They had all the resources and channels.
They had also incorporated the underworld, washed their names, and given them a new identity. They were also under their control.
From then on, would there still be any underworld in Pearl City?
Xiao Zheng's eyes twitched slightly and he sighed. "No wonder people always say that there are no underworld gangs in Hua Xia."
"This is the general trend." Lu Dashan smiled. "This is the economic era. Everyone only has money in their eyes. All walks of life are seeking nothing more than profit. Can the so-called underworld be avoided? "
"Of course. What you said is not completely correct. "Lu Dashan smiled. "There will not be any underworld gangs in Hua Xia, but there will definitely be gangsters. So, we need Miss Shen to supervise them. "
Supervision?
Shen Manjun felt that this word was too ironic and despairing.
Her father had worked hard all his life just to get their approval and then turn the spearhead to supervise his underlings?
Wasn't it ridiculous?
Wasn't it absurd?
Could it be that this was the path to success that he had been yearning for?
"Xiao Zheng, I still have something to do. I'll leave first. There will be desserts coming up in a while. You guys take your time. "Lu Dashan smiled and got up and left the private room.
…
As soon as Lu Dashan walked through the corridor, he met Minister Li, who was drinking tea in the lounge. As soon as the two met, Minister Li stood up and said sarcastically, "Old thing, you are only forty-eight years old. Are you in a hurry to find a successor? "
"Successor?" Lu Dashan laughed and shook his head. "I don't plan to retire yet."
"Then why would you rather offend Director Gong to help him?" Minister Li teased. "Don't quibble. Your attitude towards Xiao Zheng is very thought-provoking. "
Lu Dashan asked, "Am I not allowed to admire one or two young people? Haven't you promoted a few young people all these years? "
"I haven't spent as much effort to cultivate them as you have," Minister Li said meaningfully. "Or did my niece ask you to do it?"
"She doesn't know anything." Lu Dashan shook his head. "Don't spread rumors in front of her, lest she blames me later."
"You're still saying that you're not training a successor? You're treating him like a prospective son-in-law, "Minister Li said with a faint smile. "Old Lu. You're not kind at all. Why didn't you invite me to watch and learn from such a big game of chess? "
Lu Dashan let out a strange laugh and said meaningfully, "If you really want to talk about a successor. Xiao Zheng was definitely a good candidate. This kid was smart enough and steady enough. He was also a far-sighted and thoughtful fellow. Of course, what I admire the most is that he is brave and resourceful. "
"I believe you have a plan. You wouldn't have fallen for him if you didn't have a plan, "Minister Li teased. "But the word 'courage' is not something that just anyone can live up to."
Lu Dashan smiled and said, "Why? Are you questioning my judgment?"
"Then you have to give me an example to convince me," Minister Li said with a smile.
"If I tell you that Zhao Laosi was killed by Xiao Zheng, will you still question his bravery?" Lu Dashan said without reservation.
"F * ck!" Minister Li's face changed dramatically and said with a cold face. "This is the kid who killed Zhao Laosi?"
"Why, you don't believe me?" Lu Dashan said with a smile. He seemed to be in a very good mood seeing his old friend being defeated.
"Are you kidding me?" Minister Li said angrily. "I spent so much effort to train Zhao Laosi, do you think it was easy? You killed him just because you said so? Why didn't you tell me in advance? Do you know how Chief Gong ridiculed me recently? Do you know how much face I lost in the Municipal Committee? "
"I didn't ask Xiao Zheng to kill Zhao Laosi. This is a personal grudge between them. "Lu Dashan smiled. "Also. Do you think that Zhao Laosi is more suitable to be a leader than Xiao Zheng at his age? Xiao Zheng is the person who can really take down Shen Manjun and Black Bear. Zhao Laosi doesn't have that ability. "
"From what you've said, that Xiao Zheng fellow is also an astute and astute fellow. He can actually play this game of chess so well. "Minister Li lit a cigarette and narrowed his eyes.
"You're wrong." Lu Dashan joked. "From the beginning, Xiao Zheng was just a chess piece in this game of chess. To be precise, he was a chess piece in Zhao Laosi's hand. But in the end, he jumped out of the game. "
"You mean, his original intention was to help the Zhao family. But in the end, he was deceived by Zhao Laosi? "Minister Li hesitated. "So he killed Zhao Laosi?"
"You can say that. But some of the details are very complicated, and I can't explain it to you in a short time. "Lu Dashan smiled. "In short, the little guy has foresight and thought. But he also has a pure heart. He doesn't have a big obsession with some things. He's not as crazy as you guys. "
"Forget it." Minister Li curled his lips. "No matter how pure a child is, if you teach him for a few days, he can also become a monster."
Lu Dashan didn't refute. He just looked as if he had found a treasure. "This kid is different from ordinary people. Not just anyone can change. Even that insufferably arrogant Lin Chaotian suffered at his hands. "
"Keep bragging." Minister Li obviously didn't believe Lu Dashan. He joked. "When the day comes when he really meets Lin Chaotian. He'll probably kick you away with one kick. At that time, you won't even have a place to cry. "
Lu Dashan smiled. "Then let's wait and see."
…
After Lu Dashan left, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy and oppressive. Xiao Zheng didn't dare to look at Shen Manjun's eyes. He could only silently light a cigarette and smoke fiercely.
On the other hand, Shen Manjun also sat on the chair with a numb face, drinking one cup after another. Her eyes were unfocused and blurred. She didn't seem to know that there was a man sitting next to her. A man she loved at all costs.
The person she loved the most killed her only family member. In this world, how many people had tasted such a feeling? And how many women could bear such a blow?
Although this family member wasn't qualified, and it wasn't warm. But blood was thicker than water. How could it be gone just like that?
After a long silence, Xiao Zheng suddenly put out the cigarette butt and said with a complicated expression, "I'm sorry."
Sorry?
What meaning could an apology have?
Could an apology make up for everything that had been done?
But apart from this sentence, what else could Xiao Zheng say?
Zhao Laosi must die. In the short term, only he could kill him and had the ability to do so. Everything seemed to be arranged by fate. No one could resist it.
But why did Shen Manjun have to be sandwiched between Xiao Zheng and Zhao Laosi?
The world was really unpredictable. The arrangement of the heavens was truly seamless.
If there was no Shen Manjun, how could Xiao Zheng be involved in the storm of the Zhao family? If there was no Shen Manjun, how could Xiao Zheng be listed as a person to be killed by Zhao Laosi?
Looking at it from the front and thinking about it from the back, everything seemed to have been arranged a long time ago. No one could overthrow it and start over again.
Bang.
Shen Manjun put down the glass, wiped the wine stains from the corner of her mouth, and said stubbornly, "You didn't do me wrong. It's my fault. I shouldn't have known you, shouldn't have involved you, and shouldn't have fallen in love with you — "
