Chapter 3375

This matter simply wasn't captured on the live broadcast, but if all the scenes of the Wang family were relayed through the broadcast to those watching the show, they would also make the corresponding choice at the first moment.

In other words, these people don't care about those details at all, nor do they care about what actually happened on a practical level—as long as the family itself can keep going, or as long as they can get the outcome everyone wants, then they should make the corresponding choice.

Attaching oneself to the strong is never wrong, but if that strong one wants to devour everything, then one must be careful—this is the essential difference between Wang Wang Canghai and Zhang Lin.

After that, Mr. Wang kept taking deep breaths, trying to calm his emotions, believing this matter was no longer what he had imagined.

At least at the present level, his range of choices was growing narrower and narrower. Zhang Lin was pressing him hard, yet Mr. Wang couldn't utter a single word of refusal. Earlier, Zhang Lin had stated things very plainly—he wanted to use this method to compress the direction of their choices.

Once the choices dwindle, Mr. Wang certainly cannot complete his original plan. He is ambitious; at the very beginning he wasn't anxious at all, thinking only to lead the Wang family in submitting to all of Zhang Lin's arrangements.

Most importantly, he wanted to use this opportunity to whitewash the Wang family, and then perhaps wait until Zhang Lin stopped managing these affairs, or once a rift opened with the authorities, Mr. Wang could take his people and slip in to fill the gap.

At that time he would be able to seize a certain degree of control. But on a practical basis, Mr. Wang now understood he had been overthinking, and those thoughts of his were pure fantasy in the literal sense—completely unrealistic. This is what Mr. Wang regrets most.

Right now, Zhang Lin has seen through these little tricks of his, which is why he's pressing so hard, and so Mr. Wang truly feels a corresponding regret in his heart.

He felt these things could not continue on like this—if they continued, it would only lead Zhang Lin to come up with all sorts of ways to force him into making that kind of choice.

Having thought this through, Mr. Wang spoke very resolutely, saying: "Mr. Zhang, I understand what you mean. Before this, I need to complete a round of screening, and then present a completely different Wang family before you. Only at that point will you intervene in this matter; otherwise you won't care how the Wang family chooses afterward, am I right?"

Hearing these words, Zhang Lin smiled, and at the same time nodded in satisfaction.

This time he spoke very frankly: "That's right, that's exactly what I mean. You must understand that after all, what you represent is not justice, so I must be cautious and careful."

Before he finished speaking, Mr. Wang could no longer sit still on his end, and he immediately asked: "Mr. Zhang, even someone of your standing has to be cautious and careful? I think that's completely unnecessary. You should know that right now the entire Wang family is utterly insignificant before you—otherwise I wouldn't have made this kind of choice."

Hearing this, Zhang Lin chuckled, then continued: "Mr. Wang, don't be so quick to put a label on me. What reality is like, I know far better than you do. I am extremely cautious in everything I do, and on the New Moon Restaurant there were times when I appeared calm and composed, or simply dismissive!"

"When facing Wang Wang Canghai, I even showed a state of disdain. But you must understand what is real and what is fake, what is deliberate disguise, and what is composure that comes from the bone—this is what I want to tell you. If you can't grasp even this small truth, then your existence is simply too pathetic."

Mr. Wang's heart skipped a beat, and he seemed to realize that what he had just said had drawn Zhang Lin's anger. First of all, Mr. Wang could consider himself a smart person.

But given the current situation, it would be wrong of him to treat Zhang Lin as a fool. Zhang Lin has given him opportunities, and has given many people opportunities.

At the same time, Zhang Lin has also told most people what they should do, what kind of choices to make at critical moments, and when facing such choices, how they should handle everything that follows from that choice. When facing his own partners, Zhang Lin has never hidden or held anything back on these matters.

But if his partners get clever and think they can foresee many things before he does, then they are gravely mistaken—on this point Zhang Lin is more certain than anyone.

On this premise, Zhang Lin tells these people in the most practical way: absolutely do not harbor such naive thoughts, because there is always a scale in his heart.

Although he and Wang Wang Canghai are completely different kinds of people, sometimes he has no choice but to use Wang Wang Canghai's way of conducting himself to convey a result to these people, or to make his attitude clear.

Zhang Lin sometimes has to admit that although Wang Wang Canghai's methods aren't exactly honorable, during the entire process there are certain small details.

Wang Wang Canghai's way of expressing things is indeed very direct. On the other hand, Zhang Lin, up to now, has also realized that perhaps from the very beginning it was because some of his attitudes weren't expressed clearly enough.

That's why all the various forces concluded he was being indecisive—especially last night at the New Moon Restaurant, where Zhang Lin gave an answer that was ambiguous.

This came too suddenly, leaving many people baffled. But Zhang Lin no longer cares about any of these things, because he has already figured out the pattern within them.
