"Xiao Ye, be cautious when choosing a boyfriend. Uncle Two can only say this much," Zhang Yanhang almost choked on Wang Zheng's words but soon pretended not to hear and spoke to Han Xingye.
"Uncle Two, both my grandfather and father like Wang Zheng very much; could they possibly have mistaken him for someone else" Han Xingye smiled.
"This is Uncle Two’s personal opinion, you can take it as a reference. Alright then, since you haven’t visited in a long time, why don't you spend more time with your grandfather I still need to go out this afternoon and will join you all for dinner tonight," Zhang Yanhang saw that Han Xingye wasn’t listening to his advice and had no desire to continue the conversation.
Moreover, after last night’s major event, he presumed there would be plenty of discussions going around the garden. Now Zhang Yanhang was feeling rather uneasy; as a father, he felt like he’d failed miserably because even when he was recuperating at home, neither of his children had come to visit him once, which greatly disappointed him.
"Alright then, let's go see my grandfather," Han Xingye held onto Wang Zheng and left. After a few meters, Wang Zheng turned back with a smile and said, "Uncle Two, I might need your help for something in a few days."
"We’ll talk about it when the time comes." Zhang Yanhang turned his face away and looked at the flowers and plants in the courtyard, anger briefly flashing in his eyes.
"Don’t be so formal with me, Uncle Two," Wang Zheng made full use of his shameless spirit and said, "Uncle Two, I’ll be staying here for a few more days and will pay my respects to you every day."
"I really hope that you never appear before me again." Zhang Yanhang didn’t know why, but whenever he faced Wang Zheng, it was so easy to get angry as if this man could easily ignite his fury.
"Uncle Two, then aren't you wishing I were dead" Wang Zheng asked with a smiling face.
"It would be best if I were dead." Zhang Yanhang said angrily, his uncontrollable anger making him look far from the demeanor of a provincial party committee standing-committee member.
"Very well." Wang Zheng still had that friendly smile on his face. He took out his phone and said, "Second Uncle, with you saying this, I feel more at ease. Everything you just said was recorded. If I were to disappear in Fuzhou as you wish, wouldn't Second Uncle then become a suspect"
Wang Zheng's words were undoubtedly naked threats. Yes, since Zhang Yanhang had spoken like that, if anything happened to Wang Zheng, Zhang Yanhang would be implicated for sure. Although even if Wang Zheng really disappeared, nobody dared investigate the Provincial Party Secretary, this incident still made Zhang Yanhang feel nauseous. Indeed, Wang Zheng was very vengeful. Since this old man just insulted him, he had to reclaim his dignity and make the other person uncomfortable.
"You're lying! You're slandering me!" Upon hearing Wang Zheng's false accusations, Zhang Yanhang's anger boiled over. That expensive purple clay teapot was thrown onto the ground with force, shattering into worthless pieces while the Dahongpao tea in it spilled out, its fragrance permeating the air.
"I didn't." Wang Zheng shrugged and made an innocent expression: "Actually, things are quite simple. If you wish for me to die or be injured, then you would be the biggest suspect."
"You're a rogue and a scoundrel!" Zhang Yanhang was so angry he trembled all over.
"I admit it." Wang Zheng didn't get riled up at all; rather, he smiled and said: "Therefore, Secretary Zhang, if you wish to maintain your reputation, I suggest ensuring nothing happens to me or Han Xinye. And make sure I am happy because otherwise, I really cannot guarantee that I won’t release the recordings on my phone."
Zhang Yanhang knew that Wang Zheng was using the inappropriate videos involving his children as leverage against him. This was Zhang's weakness and also his greatest failure in life; there was nothing more effective at striking right to his core.
If those videos were released, then the entire Zhang family would be ruined beyond repair.
"Leave." Zhang Yanhang suppressed his anger forcefully as he spoke in a low voice.
Wang Zheng smiled slyly and added another jab: "Deputy Secretary Zhang, could you please tell Pan Lianming that I'm under my protection and ask him to stay calm."
Hearing this, Zhang Yanxing was deeply shaken but said on the surface, "I don't understand what you're saying."
"Actually, you should," Wang Zheng's smile faded: "What I've said is already way beyond what I should have. This much for now, take care of yourself."
After that, Wang Zheng pulled Han Xingye and left.
"Bang!"
A purple clay teacup was once again thrown violently to the ground. Zhang Yanxing glared at Wang Zheng's retreating figure and muttered under his breath, "How dare you threaten me What kind of person are you"
"Would you be unhappy if I were to do something to your family members" Wang Zheng asked Han Xingye, who was clinging onto his arm.
"On the contrary," Han Xingye replied with a cheerful grin: "I'm quite pleased."
"Oh Why"
"Because asking this question shows that you care about me," Han Xingye said sweetly. "If you didn't care, when Zhang's people tried to assassinate you, based on your nature of avenging all grievances, the Zhang family would have been eradicated long ago."
"But it looks like we will have to go to war sooner or later," Wang Zheng said with narrowed eyes.
He was well aware that Zhang Yanhang and Pan Liming had a certain interest relationship. Without the protection of the Zhang family, the Black Hand Gang would not have been able to develop so smoothly and become so large. Sometimes, collusion between black and white factions can be mutually beneficial for both sides.
After his son was beaten up, Pan Liming would certainly try every means possible to retaliate. Wang Zheng speculated that since the other party already knew he lived in the General's Mansion, they must have informed Zhang Yanhang, who might now know about Pan Liming's intention to take action against him.
Wang Zheng’s previous words were meant to be a warning and pressure on Zhang Yanhang. The purpose was to force the Black Hand Gang to make their move early.
"Then I'll stand by your side," Han Xinye said, "Ever since I stepped through that door, I’ve decided that however you choose to handle this is fine with me. They have already treated me like this; why should I still care about their face or their well-being"
It seems that Han Xinye’s anger has not yet subsided. The attempt on her life by her cousin and sister had deeply hurt her, making even this usually optimistic girl speak such words.
As they walked through the corridor, Wang Zheng and Han Xinye ran into Zhang Bowen who was bruised and battered. At that moment, he no longer exuded any charm of a gentleman; instead, his head hung low, with bruises and cuts on his face, looking around nervously as if afraid someone would see him in such a state.
Zhang Bowen now feared meeting others because he knew that the commotion last night likely meant people were already talking about what happened between him and his sister. He was bold enough to do something but lacked the courage to take responsibility for it.
The moment Wang Zheng saw Zhang Bowen, he immediately said in a servile manner, "Oh, isn't this Bowen What was going on last night that caused such a commotion"g their nails on a blackboard The heart-stopping sensation is something no one wants to experience again after just the first time.“Actually, it's quite simple,” Wang Zheng held out two fingers betwee...
