Rivals of Rebirth

Action

Translated by Seafall (Cf411)

“Big move?” Zhou Chengan sneered, “I’d like to see what big move he can make. What’s the name of that newspaper?”

Zheng Jue glanced at the briefing report that Susie just handed him and whispered, “It’s Xingyu Weekly which has some reputation in the industry. It is not an ordinary tabloid.”

“You don’t need to worry about this matter. I have my own way,” Zhou Chengan’s tone was calm.

Zheng Jue frowned slightly, “There is also something about me in it, so how can I just sit back and ignore it? I must participate in this matter.”

Zhou Chengan paused for a moment and then wryly smiled, “Okay, it’s me who didn’t think carefully. Since you insist, then e over. This matter must be resolved before today. Otherwise, there will be changes.”

Zheng Jue replied in a deep voice while he looked down at the time and found that it was already three o’clock in the afternoon.

“I’ll e over immediately. Where are you?”

“I’m at the villa in the eastern suburbs. You were here last time,” Zhou Chengan’s voice suddenly became a little ambiguous.

Zheng Jue’s face couldn’t help but darken. He had indeed been there, but he didn’t have a good impression.

“I see,” Zheng Jue didn’t answer Zhou Chengan’s words and hung up the phone bluntly.

An hour later, Zheng Jue arrived at Zhou Chengan’s villa.

The management of the munity where Zhou Chengan is located is very strict. As soon as Zheng Jue arrived at the door, he was stopped by the security guard and was only let in after making a phone call.

Zheng Jue drove the car to the door of Zhou Chengan’s villa and saw Han Jin standing at the door waiting. He was still wearing the casual coat from noon and also the well-cut jeans that were lining his straight and long legs. He leaned diagonally against the wall of the garden, while the dusky afternoon sun shone on his exquisite side face, which showed an unusual beauty.

Seeing Zheng Jue’s car ing, he greeted him with a smile that was different from his usual dignified smile. At this time, with a kind of cynicism in his eyebrows, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Zheng Jue in the car window, then whispered, “You’re here so soon?” There was a hint of ambiguity in his tone.

Zheng Jue nodded slightly, then opened the car door, and walked out, “How do you park the car here? Does it matter if I park it in front of the door?” He tried his best to open up a topic so that in this way, he could avoid the panic in his heart.

Han Jin raised his eyebrows and stopped teasing him before he only softly said, “Just stop here. Lenny doesn’t mind this kind of thing.”

Zheng Jue nodded and went in with Han Jin.

As soon as Zheng Jue entered the door, he saw Zhou Chengan naked, standing in the living room looking at a document in his hand.

Han Jin exploded all of a sudden, then hurried up to block Zheng Jue’s sight, and said coldly, “What are you doing?! Put on your clothes quickly.”

Zhou Chengan looked at Han Jin inexplicably, but when he saw Zheng Jue behind, he suddenly realized something. He somewhat jokingly smiled and said, “It was me who’s wrong, my bad. I just took a shower and haven’t had the time to get dressed yet. Sorry.” He picked up a shirt and put it on his body.

After Zhou Chengan had fastened all the buttons, Han Jin turned aside and freed Zheng Jue’s sight.

Zheng Jue was actually a little helpless. They are all men. Even if they see each other pletely naked, it’s fine, but now that he was being blocked by Han Jin, it’s a little embarrassing.

Zheng Jue curled up the corners of his lips and softly said, “Young Master Zhou, how should we deal with that matter?”

This kind of behavior by Han Jin can only be regarded as invisible by Zheng Jue as it would be even more embarrassing if he delved into it.

Zhou Chengan only started talking about business after he put away his unruly appearance. While he was frowning slightly, he first stretched out his hand to signal Zheng Jue to sit down and then poured him a glass of champagne himself before he whispered, “Xingyu Weekly is a magazine that appeared two years ago. It has a lot of money behind it and is willing to spend money to invite people to buy news. Therefore, it has always been known for its well-informed and fair reporting. However, it has gained a reputation in the industry within a year. This dark line that Wen Huuan painstakingly buried is indeed really not easy to deal with.”

When Han Jin heard Zhou Chengan’s words, he just sneered and then sat next to Zheng Jue, with Zheng Jue’s arm next to his arm and his leg against his leg. There was a bit of ambiguity between his actions, “It’s just peach-colored news. Who can take it seriously?” He gave Zheng Jue a meaningful look with a pair of peach-blossom eyes, and as if they were a hook, Zheng Jue’s heart, which was originally as calm as water, skipped a beat.

Zhou Chengan lowered his head and smiled, “It’s true that people don’t take this kind of thing seriously, but it doesn’t sound good in terms of reputation. Not to mention…” Zhou Chengan looked at Han Jin meaningfully, “What’s more, your old man is still there. If you spread this kind of scandal, nothing might happen to you, but Mr. Zheng may not be able to gain a foothold in the Hong Kong market…”

Han Jin’s expression tensed when he heard this and then hurriedly looked at Zheng Jue before he whispered, “Don’t worry. I will definitely take care of this matter. I won’t let the old man find out.” After speaking, he turned to look at Zhou Chengan with an impatient expression, “If you have any ideas, just say them quickly. Don’t pretend to be a fool!”

Zhou Chengan rolled his eyes in his heart. Han Jin really used the trick of crossing the river and destroying the bridge too easily.

“Vi, don’t worry,” Zhou Chengan still had a calm smile on his face and said warmly, “Although Xingyu Weekly was initially funded by the Wen’s, in the past two years, there are not only a few people who want to intervene behind it. For example, the Zhou family also has a lot of relationships in it, which can be used.”

Zhou Chengan said it brightly, but there was a flash of malice in his eyes. Zheng Jue raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw it, but Han Jin’s expression was much calmer. He didn’t want to show his ruthless side in front of Zheng Jue, so even if he knew that this matter is to be done, it must be brought up by Zhou Chengan.

“Has Young Master Zhou made an arrangement?” Zheng Jue looked at Zhou Chengan with a smile.

Hearing what Zheng Jue said, Zhou Chengan also understood that Zheng Jue was only trying to test him. However, for a person of Zhou Chengan’s position, this kind of test was like a scratch, and he didn’t care at all.

“We have already made some preliminary preparations, though we still have to rely on everyone’s collective efforts,” Zhou Chengan had no intention of avoiding it at all.

Zheng Jue’s heart tightened slightly, but there was still a smile on his face as he nodded slightly and didn’t say much.

When Zhou Chengan saw him like that, he didn’t go into further details and continued, “In Xingyu Weekly, the Wen’s own 50% of the shares. Although the Zhou family was already involved with them, no matter whether it is the shareholding rate or the right to speak in the operation of the entire weekly pany, their right to speak can’t be pared with the Wen’s people. It’s just that when the family is big, there will naturally be some disharmony in it. As of now, I heard that the Xingyu’s deputy editor and the editor-in-chief seem to be a little bit out of touch.”

When Zhou Chengan said this, Han Jin also said, “I knew that deputy editor before. He happened to be in charge of determining the content of the weekly magazine. It’s just this time, about Lin Su, the editor-in-chief skipped him and directly contacted Lin Su. Because of that, the deputy editor was not very happy…” Han Jin had a faint smile on his face, showing a sense of arrogance and contempt.

Zheng Jue was a little startled for some reason. Maybe, Han Jin talked about him with Zhou Chengan in the same way in his previous life. He was originally like an ant to these people, but ever since he changed his life in this life, he can sit still in this place and decide other people’s lives. It was like a vicious circle, and Zheng Jue couldn’t break free at all.

Zhou Chengan and Han Jin didn’t realize what was wrong with Zheng Jue, as they were still talking loudly, “If this matter is to be stopped in its infancy, then we must be preemptive. That editor-in-chief has a lot of good things on his hands. If the deputy editor can cooperate to say one or two things, I am afraid that the whole Hong Kong will be shaken. At that time the editor-in-chief will be overwhelmed and will have no energy to take care of such a small matter.”

Zhou Chengan’s smile is still like a modest gentleman, but the words he said carry a hint of ruthlessness. Even if Zheng Jue had been prepared for it, he was stunned by him.

“Is this feasible?” Zheng Jue looked at Zhou Chengan with some doubt.

Zhou Chengan smiled and took a sip of champagne, then softly said, “Aaron, you shouldn’t ask if it’s feasible, and instead, you should ask how the result would be. This afternoon, the deputy editor has already handed me all the things he knows, which were now posted on the Internet. The editor-in-chief’s dirty secrets have probably already spread all over the internet in Hong Kong. What do you think this will lead to?”

Zheng Jue was shocked and looked at Zhou Chengan in surprise. He was really fast. The phrase ‘grouping together’ just now seemed really a joke. This person is indeed terrifyingly domineering.

Seeing that Zheng Jue’s emotions were not right, before Zhou Chengan could do anything yet, Han Jin hurriedly spoke first, “Aaron, don’t mind him. The time is too short. You must deal with it as soon as possible. Otherwise, I’m afraid something will happen.”

In the end, Zheng Jue gave a wry smile and swallowed all the preparations he had made. Since Zhou Chengan likes to do things his way, let him jump hard. This person really can’t live in peace for a minute.

**

After simply discussing the aftermath of this matter, Zheng Jue left Zhou Chengan’s villa. When this plan was finally executed, as Zhou Chengan said before, he didn’t have to do anything. He just needed to watch it.

It’s just this incident made him clearly realize the distance between him and Zhou Chengan and Han Jin, as well as the real faces of those from aristocratic families, who usually looked some rich drunkard playboys on weekdays, but when faced with some problems, the ruthlessness and bloodthirstiness in their bones are stronger than anyone else’s.

Furthermore, he was just a nouveau riche back then, so how could he be these people’s opponents? Zheng Jue slightly curled up the corner of his lips with a hint of coldness in his eyes. His failure in the past life was unavoidable.

Looking at Zheng Jue thoughtfully, Han Jin, who originally sent Zheng Jue out, felt a little at a loss for a while. He wanted to say something to Zheng Jue, but he didn’t know what to say. In the end, he could only grasp the first thought that came into his heart, ” Aaron, this time, Lenny also dealt with Lin Su. You… would you mind?” Han Jin asked cautiously. To be honest, it wasn’t Zhou Chengan who wanted to deal with Lin Su but Han Jin, and he didn’t want Zheng Jue to know what he had done in this matter.

It’s just that he regretted it as soon as he finished the question. It was already in the past tense, and he brought it up again. Won’t she attract Zheng Jue’s eyes again?

Zheng Jue just smiled when he heard this and solemnly said, “Ms. Lin has nothing to do with me anymore. I don’t care what happens to her.”

After hearing this, Han Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
