Chapter 460: Keep an Eye on the Zhou Family

I said to Zhao Xiaoguo, "Xiaoguo, I want you to keep an eye on news about the Zhou Family. This is very important to me."

"Brother, don't worry, I'll keep watch," Zhao Xiaoguo said.

"Are the few people under you loyal to you?"

"Very loyal, they all listen to me; otherwise I'd make sure they can't mess around in Sijiucheng."

I nodded,

"Xiaoguo, you've lived in the sewers for years; if you can leave Sijiucheng through the sewers, can you?"

"This is easy; we've long lived in culverts and sewers, I know exactly where these sewers lead. Don't worry, brother. Why are you asking these?" Zhao Xiaoguo said lightly.

"It's possible, I need your help, which is to protect Zhou Jie escaping from Sijiucheng." I said.

"Zhou Jie, is that the young master Zhou?"

"Yes, that's the young master Zhou."

"Protect him? Why? Isn't he our enemy? The Zhou Family is finished—wouldn't that be perfect?" Zhao Xiaoguo said, somewhat confused.

"Xiaoguo, I don't want Zhou Jie to fall into others' hands, because he has use value."

"You know?"

"You just said the Zhou Family is about to collapse, right? If there's any stir in the Zhou Family, you must immediately bring people to constantly monitor the Jinghe Hotel."

"That is the Zhou Family's old den."

"I believe you will surely help,"

"Zhou Jie wants to escape from Sijiucheng, and this is the only way."

"By then, the Wen Family will surely lock down the entire city."

"I don't want Zhou Jie to fall into their hands." I took a puff of smoke.

Zhao Xiaoguo nodded,

"Brother, although I don't know what use Zhou Jie has for you, as long as I can help you, I'll be very happy."

"I am now paying special attention to the Zhou Family's news, and I have also arranged people to constantly observe the situation around the Jinghe Hotel."

"When the time comes, if you need me, just give me a call directly. This is my phone number."

Zhao Xiaoguo then casually reported a string of numbers.

I took out my phone and noted it down.

Zhao Xiaoguo also took out his phone and noted down my number.

I glanced at Zhao Xiaoguo's phone—it's the latest model smartphone.

"This Zhao Xiaoguo really isn't short of money, able to use such a good phone."

"Brother, your phone is too old; let me give you one to use. Among the dozen-plus people I manage, there's Lao Rong (a thief). He especially likes to snatch phones. Whatever the latest model, he can get it first." After saying that, Zhao Xiaoguo pulled another phone from his pocket and handed it to me.

I took it and looked,

"Perfect, I don't have time to buy a phone right now either."

"Alright, I'll keep the one you give me."

"Brother, before it was always you giving me things, giving me money to spend. I don't have anything to give you, but I'm happy you can take this phone, as long as you don't look down on me for being dirty." Zhao Xiaoguo said somewhat feeling inferior.

I patted Zhao Xiaoguo's shoulder,

"How could it not be? We are forever blood brothers."

"Xiaoguo, no matter what, I am your brother, I won't despise your belongings."

"Then I'm leaving; if anything comes up, just listen to my phone."

"Brother, what did Zhao Xiaohua do? You won't hate him, will you?" Zhao Xiaoguo asked.

"Oh, Zhao Xiaohua is now the chairman of Da Heng Group; how could I hate him? As long as the chairman is surnamed Zhao, that's fine."

"Whoever holds it is the same."

"Actually, back then I made Zhao Xiaohua the general manager just to cultivate him well,"

"Who would have thought he would contact outsiders, specifically to deal with me,"

"This makes me feel cold-hearted."

"Zhao Xiaohua also received some lessons; I hope he can learn from them."

"One must understand,"

"Blood brothers are forever blood brothers, unlike outsiders."

"Rest assured, I won't hate him." I said lightly.

"Brother, as long as you don't hold a grudge against Xiaohua, that's fine. Sometimes I worry; Zhao Xiaohua's actions sometimes let you down too much, his mind is not upright."

"Contacting outsiders to deal with his own brother—such a person is not fit to be a leader."

"Really, brother, my meaning is to find a way to remove Zhao Xiaohua; letting him be chairman of Da Heng Group is inappropriate."

"Not holding a grudge against him is already quite good."

"If really impossible, you drive him out to Sijiucheng,"

"I'll manage him, let him beg for food with me, endure some hardship."

I laughed,

"Alright, Xiaoguo, he Zhao Xiaohua is not like you."

"We three brothers, each has his own fate."

"You just like this kind of life; that's your fate."

"I also won't persuade you to follow me."

"Live well in Sijiucheng. If you need anything from brother, just give a call."

"Don't worry, brother, whenever you need me, I will definitely contact you." Zhao Xiaoguo proactively reached out his hand.

I shook hands with Zhao Xiaoguo.

Then I waved at Zhao Xiaoguo.

and walked up from under the dam.

Zhao Xiaoguo kept watching me, not going back into the tunnel.

I was deeply moved.

It's already good that Zhao Xiaoguo has this understanding: knowing what kind of person he is, he doesn't force himself,

and lives spontaneously.

In fact, life is only a few dozen years; living as comfortably as possible is also a way of living.

As long as one feels happy, that's enough.

In the past, I always wanted Zhao Xiaoguo to be like me,

to shoulder responsibility and lead an extraordinary life.

That's like forcing a melon; it's not sweet at all.

Zhao Xiaoguo's discomfort is my discomfort too; there isn't much feeling between brothers.

It's better this way; each lives his own life.

I walked on the road with a relaxed stride,

thinking about my thoughts,

The Zhou Family is surely about to collapse. Even Zhao Xiaoguo and the others know this news.

The Wen Family and the Wang Family have joined forces to bring down the Zhou Family.

This outcome benefits both the Wen Family and the Wang Family.

Actually there's another point: Wang Ge and Wen Han aren't coveting the Zhou Family's assets, are they?

The Zhou Family's assets are not a small amount.

Zhou Renfeng's many years of accumulation will only be left to Zhou Jie.

Zhou Jie is his lifeline.

If Zhou Jie falls into Wen Han and Wang Ge's hands, there's only a dead end.

Only I can help him. Because my intervening to save Zhou Jie is something no one would expect, not even Wen Han or Wang Ge.

They would never think I would save Zhou Jie; he's my enemy.

When I saw Zhou Jie, I would have killed him.

Zhou Renfeng's social connections, I believe Wang Ge and Wen Han understand them clearly.

As long as the Zhou Family is finished, who would dare help Zhou Renfeng.

Zhou Renfeng has been in the mix for so long; he knows better than anyone.

He let me go, which shows one thing: leaving a way out for his son Zhou Jie.

At present, why hasn't he contacted me,

this indicates it's not yet time; he still wants to gamble, he's a person who doesn't shed tears until he sees a coffin.

As long as Zhou Jie is in my hands, I can guarantee he won't die.

I am capable of that.

However, everything has conditions; it's mutually beneficial, otherwise I wouldn't help Zhou Jie.

I see the huge wealth on Zhou Jie. I don't want it to fall into Wen Han and Wang Ge's hands.

I have already realized that securing the Da Heng Group brings little meaning.

Director Qi, Yang Tao's four hundred million

and also Xu gave Wang Ge four hundred million.

What does the Da Heng Group still have left?

Sigh, I am disheartened.

I have decided to take another path.

However, at present any undertaking needs financial backing,

and this capital is certainly not a small amount.

I can only scheme from Zhou Jie.
