Chapter 2649

~4 min read 691 words

After all, Wang Wang Canghai had previously tried to probe whether Zhang Lin had already taken Mr. Wang into his own ranks; if it were someone else, even if it were true, they probably wouldn't tell him.

But Zhang Lin, precisely because of that arrogance, wouldn't hide it—this is Wang Wang Canghai's current read on Zhang Lin, though from a realistic standpoint, his read is far too narrow.

If he could truly understand Zhang Lin even a little, he wouldn't imagine things this way.

At this moment, Wang Wang Canghai was instead wondering whether to pick up the call, whether to deliberately keep Zhang Lin waiting.

The more Wang Wang Canghai thought about it, the more he felt that Zhang Lin's calling proved his heart was already panicking.

He himself had gone to the Second Archaeology Team, and through Mr. Wang he had learned the situation over there; now he had once again gathered a batch of Wang family members and was heading to the Second Archaeology Team, which made the problem they faced completely different from before.

The Second Archaeology Team had to be on full alert facing such a crisis; Wang Wang Canghai believed that the trouble he alone could bring to the Second Archaeology Team was no joke, let alone now that the whole team had people in hand—Wang Wang Canghai's confidence only grew.

Zhang Lin's end had the call on speaker directly; in fact, even if Wang Wang Canghai didn't pick up now, it was within Zhang Lin's expectations, but whether he picked up or not reflected entirely different situations—if Wang Wang Canghai picked up, Zhang Lin would simply chat with him.

At the same time, by going with the flow, he might draw out more of Wang Wang Canghai's thoughts; of course, this wasn't Zhang Lin's ultimate goal—as long as Wang Wang Canghai's mindset hadn't completely collapsed, there was a lot Zhang Lin could do.

If previously Wang Wang Canghai's mindset had already crumbled seventy or eighty percent, then the confidence built through the matter of Wang Hu could fully compensate for that imbalance.

But at the same time, if this matter truly existed, then Wang Wang Canghai could naturally go with the flow and use this method to resolve many subsequent problems.

But if these things were fundamentally an illusion, then afterward Wang Wang Canghai would have to return all the confidence he had built up, principal and interest alike.

This was also the purpose of Zhang Lin's call; through Wang Wang Canghai's tone he wanted to hear exactly which way he was thinking about this problem.

If he truly believed Wang Hu's joining would make his subsequent affairs smoother, then Zhang Lin wouldn't even need to probe his bottom line to guess what Wang Wang Canghai was thinking,.

He was simply convinced he had grasped the last life-saving straw; if he treated Wang Cen as his final hope, Zhang Lin actually wouldn't say anything.

Because reality was indeed developing in that direction, and all along Wang Cen had performed very well—even under Zhang Lin's heavy pressure, Wang Cen could find a crack under that pressure and seize one last chance of survival within it.

Back when they were inside Worm Valley, he had taken the wrong route; the Second Archaeology Team as a whole had entered a parallel space, while Wang Cen, through the mud pool and a twist of fate, had returned to normal space and thus escaped to safety.

The others didn't understand this matter, but from Zhang Lin's perspective, if Wang Wang Canghai had done it, that wouldn't be strange.

After all, he had plenty of experience and terrifyingly formidable skills; based on this, Wang Wang Canghai could resolve many crises within tombs—but the person in question happened to be Wang Cen.

He didn't have abilities like Wang Wang Canghai's, which meant that for Wang Cen to escape, it was overwhelmingly a matter of luck.

But the premise of that luck was that he had the guts to make that choice; under ordinary circumstances, and having gone through everything before, one would absolutely not dare to jump into that pool.
