Chapter 10

A Pair of Eagle

Translated by Seafall (Cf411)

Zheng Jue hung up the phone with Lu Yunxing and saw Susie’s face that was hesitant to say anything. He knew Susie’s worries, so he smiled reassuringly and said, “I know what you’re thinking, don’t worry.” Although Susie is trustworthy, there are still some things that cannot be told to her.

Seeing him say this, Susie closed her mouth immediately and said no more. In Susie’s workplace guidelines, when the boss doesn’t want to listen to her nonsense, she must shut up in time.

Watching Susie exit the office door, Zheng Jue was relieved. He leaned on the back of the chair a little tired. In order to incapacitate Lin Su, he had to give her some favors, but that’s it. “Assassin” is a man’s play so even the heroine doesn’t have many scenes, not to mention the third female lead who plays the role of a vase.

Lin Su is very ambitious and wants to make a fortune in the entertainment industry. She walks between Wen Huaan and himself to get the most benefit for her, but now that he is here, Lin Su’s abacus can’t be played. In his last life, he was betrayed by Lin Su and stabbed by her, the person he loves the most. In this life, he will also let her try to be ruined.

The next day, Zheng Jue asked Susie to pick up Lin Su and went to Lu Yunxing’s company together. Lin Su was wearing a white dress which made her look gentler and peaceful. Unlike when she called him last night, he couldn’t see how the excitement Lin Su had shown back then.

The two of them went directly into Lu Yunxing’s office. When Lu Yunxing saw Lin Su, his eyes flashed with surprise, then smiled and patted Zheng Jue’s shoulder, “Okay, Aaron, I finally know why you are so guarded, I didn’t expect that there was a big beauty hidden in your home. It’s really a blessing.”

Lin Su’s face turned slightly red, but she became more confident in her heart. It seemed that even though Zheng Jue became cunning, he still had a bit of sincerity towards herself.

Zheng Jue just laughed without saying a word, thinking that Lu Yunxing is really an old fox. He has never experienced any scenes with Lu Yunxing. Although he is impatient with those kinds of things, he would occasionally deal with them with affection. Now that Lu Yunxing is lying without blinking, Zheng Jue’s heart was really mixed.

Seeing that Zheng Jue’s expression did not change, Lu Yunxing probably guessed the position of Ms. Lin in his heart, so he stopped thinking about it and told her about his plan. Lin Su was still just a fledgling at this time, and because she didn’t have as many hearts and minds in the latter part of his last life, she happily signed the contract after listening to the conditions given by Lu Yunxing.

Zheng Jue sat beside her with a smile on his face from start to finish. He saw clearly that the terms Lu Yunxing offered to Lin Su were not the most favorable terms. They might only be slightly better than ordinary people’s contracts. Speaking of which, everyone is in the same industry so they still have friendships with each other. Even if Lu Yunxing is pretending, he has to do it properly, but now that he is like this, perhaps he has seen something. Zheng Jue secretly pondered to himself. Lu Yunxing’s eyes are really poisonous.

After Lin Su signed the contract, Zheng Jue sent her away. At first, she was a little reluctant, but looking at his appearance, she knew there was no room for maneuver, so she left obediently.

As soon as Lin Su walked out of the door of Lu Yunxing’s office, Lu Yunxing’s elegant smile changed instantly. He looked at Zheng Jue a little inscrutably and said solemnly, “Unexpectedly, Mr. Zheng still has a lover. However, since I don’t like this Ms. Lin, then she has to work hard.”

In the eyes of the patriarch of a business family like Lu Yunxing, women are like a dispensable ornament. That’s it, when he likes it, he will naturally pet it. If he doesn’t like it, then just change it. There are countless young boys and girls who take the initiative to send themselves up, so seeing Zheng Jue act like this, he genuinely treats him as an exception.

Zheng Jue lowered his head and smiled, “Where have I made Mr. Lu laugh? Ms. Lin is still my girlfriend now. She wants to act, so I only helped her.”

Since he said it was his girlfriend and called her Ms. Lin. With such an obvious gesture, Lu Yunxing is not a fool, and there is a somewhat clear smile in his eyes, “Okay, Mr. Zheng is young but he does things with love and righteousness and the future is bright!”

Lu Yunxing smiled happily, however, Zheng Jue only dared to believe half of what he said. There are many families in Hong Kong. He is an outsider. To be able to get up to this point should be already regarded as a formidable achievement, yet in the eyes of these locals, they still saw him as a young man. It would be even better for him to marry his daughter to him in the future and make Zheng Jue into his own family.

“Mr. Lu is joking. I’m young and I need Mr. Lu to give some advice when doing things,” In fact, he interacted with people like Lu Yunxing in order to break into the circle of these upper-class people It’s not just okay to eat, drink, and gamble with a bunch of playboys with their prostitutes, but he still has to break into the group of people who hold the real power.

In the following time, Zheng Jue and Lu Yunxing talked about work again. Seeing that the time was almost up, he left. He didn’t need to do this kind of thing himself. There are a lot of people down there with good looks because of Lu Yunxing. He was very attentive.

A week later, the crew of “Assassin” officially launched. Lu Yunxing’s son was not able to catch up with the opening ceremony. He is still drunk on a small island in the Mediterranean. Lu Yunxing’s face has ashen, but there is nothing he can do. He has only one son at such an old age.

However, Zheng Jue had been living very comfortably these few days. Lin Su finally joined the group, so his ears were much cleaner.

He finished his hands on one side but got up again on the other side. The project he cooperated with Zhou has been completed by 18%. The pre-sale of real estate developers has long been emptied up. Even the Zhou family, who was unmoving, can’t sit still.

This afternoon, Zheng Jue received a call from Zhou Chengan.

“Mr. Zheng really has a good eye. This time, the Zhou family has followed Mr. Zheng,” Zhou Chengan looked at Zheng Jue with a peaceful expression but his smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

Zheng Jue looked at Zhou Chengan and raised his eyebrows slightly. He understood in his heart that this land was sold to him after Zhou Chengan spoke for him. Now, real estate is booming, but the Zhou only drank the soup. This might have angered Zhou Chengan. Even so, business is business, regardless if Zhou is unwilling, there is nothing he can do.

“What does Young Master Zhou mean? I, an outsider, can I be as well-informed as the Zhou’s? It’s just a bit of luck,” Zheng Jue’s expression was so calm that he couldn’t see any waves.

Zhou Chengan actually understood this truth in his heart. However, this incident was too coincidental as someone at home fanned up the flames against himself, so he said such irrational words in a hurry, but now he regrets it a little. Zheng Jue is not an ordinary person. He is a capable man. Hence, the Zhou family should not have a bad relationship with him.

“Aaron, you are too polite. The situation is very good in the present. I wonder if there are plans for the second phase of the project?” Zhou Chengan returned to his previous calmness and called him Aaron, which is a name more intimate than the previous Mr. Zheng.

Capitalists are chasing interests, and within the Zhou family, the clamor for the second-phase project has already resounded in the sky. In order to fill the desires of these people, the second-phase project is naturally imminent.

Zheng Jue smiled. He knew that this investment would definitely be a big sell. He had already designed the third phase of the project since the beginning, but it was not easy to show off in front of these old oilseeds, so he didn’t tell them.

“It’s natural so Young Master Zhou doesn’t need to worry. However, I don’t know what Elder Zhou thinks about this investment?” Elder Zhou here is the patriarch of the Zhou family, Zhou Mingrui, who is Zhou Chengan’s grandfather.

The smile on Zhou Chengan’s face froze, “Grandpa is naturally very supportive,” After saying this, the smile on his face disappeared.

Zheng Jue observed secretly and said that it was really good in his heart. Although Zhou Chengan had a good position in the Zhou family and his father was also the best candidate for the Zhou family’s successor, Zhou Mingrui didn’t like him very much. On the contrary, he likes Zheng Chengyuan, the second son of the family. It’s not obvious now, but at the end of his last life, Zhou Chengan and Zhou Chengyuan had already become two tigers fighting each other.

“So that’s the case, then I’m relieved,” Zheng Jue had a smile in his eyes, but he had his own calculations in his heart.

Zhou Chengan looked at Zheng Jue’s ignorant face and felt a little annoyed in his heart. In the past few days, others have said a lot of ugly things behind his back because of his connection with the selling of that land. Although it was not his fault, these people were bent on fighting against him. Take care of it and talk about it elsewhere, he doesn’t care about these acidifications. However, he didn’t expect it to spread to his grandfather’s ears…

Zhou Chengan clenched his fists, his expression remained unchanged, “Mr. Zheng, rest assured. This cooperation is the decision of the entire Zhou family and there will never be any second words.” This is the end of the matter. Whether it can still be robbed or not, they can only continue to cooperate.

After meeting with Zhou Chengan, Zheng Jue left. As soon as he left the coffee bar of the hotel, he saw Han Jin walking over with a beautiful young man in his arms. Han Jin was wearing a dark blue casual jacket and a beige thin sweater. It’s not at all different from the usual appearance of sitting upright, and the young man next to him, looking at only around 18 to 19 years old, looks very beautiful and somewhat androgynous, and is currently leaning meekly in Han Jin’s arms, wishing he could stick to him.

Looking at this scene, Zheng Jue frowned at first, but then heaved a sigh of relief. He really didn’t want Han Jin to have any other meaning to him. Now, looking at this scene, he should have shifted his attention.

“Young Master Han, what a coincidence,” Zheng Jue took the initiative to greet him with a smile. Now that Han Jin is not someone who he can easily offend, Zheng Jue doesn’t want to have a deadlocked relationship with him.

Han Jin glanced at Zheng Jue somewhat arrogantly with a fake smile on his face, “Mr. Zheng? What a coincidence.” After speaking, he looked down at the young man in his arms with a gentle expression and said softly, “Su Hang , why don’t you greet Mr. Zheng?”

Su Hang has a pair of deer-like clear and innocent eyes, he smiled shyly and whispered, “Hello, Mr. Zheng.”

Zheng Jue’s mouth twitched and nodded towards Su Hang. He naturally noticed Han Jin’s strange attitude, but after thinking about it again, he had a guess in his heart. I’m afraid it was his attitude last time that made this young master a little angry. In that case, it’s better not to hit the muzzle at this moment.

Thinking of this, Zheng Jue nodded slightly, “I met with Young Master Zhou here today to talk about work. I didn’t expect to meet Young Master Han. I won’t disturb you.” After speaking, he turned around and was ready to leave.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Han Jin couldn’t help his expression darken. He clenched his fists to suppress the surging anger and whispered, “Zheng Jue, who the hell are you?!”
