Chapter 155 I hear you!

e screen was a hint of ruthless madness. He said, "I will personally reclaim what I lost from the previous generation.""As long as you complete the mission assigned to you by the principal, the milita...Chapter 155: I Will Listen to You!

After Wang Zheng asked this question, he noticed that Shangguan Zhen hesitated for a moment before saying uncertainly, "I don't think so. My connection with my master is usually quite secretive; no one should know about my involvement with the military system."

"Furthermore, this ward is absolutely secure and soundproofed well because this nursing home belongs to the Shangguan family, staffed entirely by internal personnel without any outsiders infiltrating." Shangguan Zhen thought Wang Zheng was worried about eavesdropping on their conversation and explained accordingly.

"Oh," Wang Zheng responded but still felt something wasn't quite right, though he couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was.

"What role does the troublemaker need to play next" asked Wang Zheng.

Shangguan Zhen smiled and pointed southwest, saying, "Go to Ningxia for me."

"Ningxia Why there" Wang Zheng was puzzled.

"I will stay here in this nursing home to recuperate from my illness. Until the truth of that matter is uncovered, I will step back into the shadows; many things can be handled by Shishi, who has grown much faster than expected," explained Shangguan Zhen: "Ningxia has abundant natural gas reserves, which others might not know about, but I am well-informed on this. Although Huaxia Zhongding Gas Company is officially a state-owned enterprise, the Su family took advantage of their background during the privatization period to control over seventy percent of its equity. Considering that Huaxia Zhongding Gas is a super monopolistic company in southeastern provinces with annual profits exceeding hundreds of billions, cutting off this revenue stream would surely bring down the Su family's prosperity."

"The Su Family's strength truly exceeds our imagination," said Wang Zheng with a sigh.

Shangguan Zhen smiled faintly, revealing a sense of dominance and desolation: "To make them perish but not die easily."

There are my comrades and brothers within the Dragon Scale Corps. So many vibrant lives and elite troops from Huaxia's military. How could this blood debt be settled so lightly

This point of view was very similar to Wang Zheng’s. If he had the means, Wang Zheng really would not hesitate to eliminate Su Fuhua, even if it meant turning Lixin Manor into a river of blood. But in his heart, ending Su Fuhua's life with one bullet seemed too lenient; he wanted to slowly crush this once and present omnipotent elder from their pedestal, making him fall flat on the ground for all to despise.

"How do you plan to sever this line" Wang Zheng asked. He was well aware that natural gas was an irreplaceable non-renewable resource, crucial for the country's energy security in China; the government would never privatize such a key resource. Therefore, he was quite curious about how the Shangguan family intended to proceed.

"Zhongding Gas has been listed for eight years now and its market value is high. However, with sufficient funds, it’s not difficult in this era to use economic means to狙擊 a listed company. Even if Zhongding Gas is an enormous entity, I can still dismantle this beast piece by piece," Shangguan Jiazheng said confidently with a smile: "I still have some unresolved matters and crucial connections to establish in Ningxia. As for the stock market operations, leave it to me, while those things that shouldn’t be exposed, you take care of them."

"You really trust me so much"

"Of course. In my view, no one is more suitable than you for this job," Shangguan Jiazheng replied.

Wang Zheng sighed inwardly and rolled his eyes: "So I’m not only a troublemaker but also the silent killer"

Hearing that, Shangguan Jiazheng burst out laughing.

...

Jurong's white goods promotion was very successful. Especially the ads shot by Liu Xuan were eye-catching. Among high-end appliances flooding the market, Jurong’s firm commitment to a populist approach paid off greatly. The soaring sales figures and avalanche of orders left Shangguo Shi in high spirits during the board meeting, leaving those directors who had been scheming behind her speechless.

Jurong's success also brought unexpected fame to Liu Xuan. With her down-to-earth image fitting Jurong’s populist strategy perfectly, the company poured a lot of money into promoting her image. Soon enough, all TV stations and major cities were filled with ads featuring Liu Xuan’s slightly awkward yet radiant smile, which made people feel warm and content whenever they saw it. Many men changed their phone backgrounds to pictures of this vivacious girl.

Nowadays, Liu Xuan was often recognized on the streets, and many fans came to her school hoping to catch a glimpse of her charm. This sudden fame left her somewhat unprepared—she had originally planned to become an English teacher after graduation.

After Jurong's ad aired, Liu Xuan received numerous invitations from talent agencies. Even renowned director Zhao Gang personally visited the school to invite her to star in his new film ‘Capital Youth’, playing the female lead. Being the leading lady of Zhao Gang’s film would definitely skyrocket one’s fame; nobody could refuse such an opportunity. But Liu Xuan politely declined, stating that she didn’t want to become famous too quickly.

Zhao Gang highly praised this attitude and complimented her in front of television reporters, saying there were not many girls who weren't envious of the glitz and glamour these days. After being rejected, Zhao Gang was even more determined to cast Liu Xuan as the female lead for ‘Capital Youth’.

Zhao Jiajiang's enthusiastic invitation left Liu Xuan somewhat uncertain, and she had to consult Wang Zheng for advice.

Qiao Sichuan is a renowned Sichuan cuisine restaurant in the capital city, famous for its delicious food. Initially, it adopted an approachable strategy when it first opened, but as it grew bigger over time, it became more upscale and out of reach for many working-class people.

The interior of Qiao Sichuan is incredibly luxurious, with luxury cars parked outside the entrance. Nowadays, everyone who frequents this famous Sichuan restaurant is either wealthy or of high social status.

After Wang Zheng sat down with a grin, Liu Xuan checked her watch and smiled: "You're fifteen minutes late, Mr. Wang Are you really busy recently"

"Of course I'm busy! After all, I am an executive vice president, and I've turned away several people who wanted to invite me for dinner today. But when you called and said you'd like to treat me to a meal, I immediately rushed over as soon as I was free." Wang Zheng looked at the menu and responded earnestly.

"Alright then, but don't get too big-headed. You're just a bodyguard, albeit an advanced one. Don’t act like you’re the boss here," Liu Xuan said bluntly.

"Why did you choose such an expensive place" Wang Zheng took in his surroundings and noticed everyone around was dressed formally. The entire restaurant was grand and opulent, making him feel a bit uncomfortable.

"I let you earn two million yuan as my endorser, so naturally I want to treat you to dinner. By coming here, I hope to let you indulge yourself with ordering dishes to your heart's content today. Please don’t hold back; order whatever you like."

"Two million That’s enough even for keeping a mistress." As Wang Zheng spoke, he gestured to the waitstaff, ordering dishes such as stir-fried pig intestines and spicy chicken, along with lamb kebabs and braised pork. He ordered seven or eight dishes at once. Although Qiao Sichuan had become more upscale in recent years, its dish names still followed a rustic theme.

Only after Wang Zheng finished ordering the dishes did he put down the menu contentedly and looked straight at Liu Xuan.

"Who would want to keep you as a mistress You’re not some pretty boy. Really shameless," Liu Xuan's face flushed red upon hearing Wang Zheng’s teasing remark.

It was now late autumn, with a noticeable chill in the air. Liu Xuan wore a white baseball cap and had smooth chestnut-colored hair tied into a ponytail that flowed behind her head. She was dressed in an orange sports jacket, which, although not tight-fitting, gave her a youthful appearance full of vitality. Even sitting down, Wang Zheng could feel how well-proportioned the girl's figure was. Her fair face flushed slightly with a pink hue, making it hard to tell whether it was due to blush or embarrassment. Many diners nearby were whispering and staring at them, causing Wang Zheng to swallow nervously.

"You're really a star now. Your presence has been honed, and with just a little effort in appearance, you look stunning. How can I concentrate on eating with you sitting like this in front of me" Wang Zheng bluntly stared at Liu Xuan and said.

"Everyone in Jirong knows that I belong to you. When I go out, I have to make an effort to look presentable so as not to embarrass you," Liu Xuan drank some water and casually mentioned it.

"You don't belong to me; if I were truly at a disadvantage, wouldn't I be getting any benefits I didn’t even get a chance to touch your hand before you became mine. When have I ever suffered such losses" Wang Zheng took a sip of the tea that was reportedly priced at 98 yuan per cup and cleared his throat before continuing: "It's nothing really; some people say I am being kept by Shishiyu, but since I'm good-looking, there are plenty of rumors around me. It doesn't bother me."

"Go to hell, always with your slick talk," Liu Xuan raised her chopsticks as if she was going to hit him.

"Really, I'm grateful for all the times you've helped me and introduced me to this ad opportunity. Perhaps my life would be different because of you." Liu Xuan's big eyes stared at Wang Zheng; when she focused, even without a smile, she exuded charm that made Wang Zheng feel somewhat uncomfortable looking back.

In fact, as Liu Xuan had said, her beauty was so captivating that it attracted male attention. After meeting Liu Xuan, Wang Zheng had been harassed by Lili and Zhu Feng; if Wang Zheng hadn't intervened in time, the consequences might have been unimaginable.

Of course, Wang Zheng also admired Liu Xuan's bold character, which was why he suggested her for Jirong's advertisement lead role.

"Don't thank me; this ad would only be so effective because of you. You've helped me too; we should help each other out." For some reason, Wang Zheng suddenly felt uncomfortable under Liu Xuan’s intense gaze.

“Zhao Jiaojiao wants me to star in his TV drama. What do you think I want your opinion on it,” Liu Xuan said.

"My opinion is that there's no opinion. What are you thinking"

"I don't have an opinion either, so I'll go with what you say."years, is here too!""They're all here Let's go and take a look."Qiao Shanxing’s expression was equally solemn. For Triad bigwigs like Mo Junhui and Li Yuantu to be present at the banquet was an extrem...
