Chapter 221

The intensity of the mockery in Park Gwan-soo’s words made Zhang Shijun, who was standing to the side with his head lowered, feel extremely uncomfortable.

He couldn't help but think: am I also insignificant in the eyes of this old bastard Park Gwan-soo?

Even when Park Gwan-soo speaks to me with a smile, is he also thinking that I’m stupid?

Zhang Shijun forced himself not to think about those possibilities, but his heart had gone cold.

Chairman Wu also saw Zhang Shijun and Li Kangxi.

"Kangxi!"

"You have suffered."

"Rest assured, I will definitely avenge you."

Chairman Wu’s eyes held pity, as if he were truly and sincerely feeling regret for Li Kangxi.

"Aba-aba~ Aba-aba~"

When Li Kangxi’s voice came out, a flash of surprise crossed Chairman Wu’s eyes.

He knew Li Kangxi’s tongue was gone, but he hadn't expected him to be unable to say even a single complete sentence.

Li Kangxi naturally knew how pathetic he looked, and his eyes were blood-red with resentment.

"I understand, Kangxi." Chairman Wu was, after all, a shrewd veteran of the business world; he adjusted his emotions without a trace and comforted Li Kangxi.

A warmth spread through Li Kangxi’s heart; he hadn't expected that even though he had become like this, Chairman Wu would still treat him as he did before.

"Everyone, sit!"

Chairman Wu spoke slowly, and naturally, he sat in the main seat.

Chairman Wu and Park Gwan-soo were not overflowing with kindness, nor were they refusing to abandon their former partner, Li Kangxi.

The two wanted certain things that were in Li Kangxi’s hands.

Although he was now too disabled to look at, it didn't mean the things in his hands couldn't be taken.

On the contrary, the things in Li Kangxi’s hands might be of some help to the future schemes of Chairman Wu and Park Gwan-soo.

If they asked for them directly, Li Kangxi certainly wouldn't give them.

So the two decided to win his heart first, making Li Kangxi willingly hand them over in the end.

"Shijun! As long as we help Chairman Wu swallow the Sunyang Group, then your path to the presidency will be incredibly smooth."

"Isn't this backer stronger than that JSS Group of your ex-wife?"

"So, you see, following the right person makes things twice as effective with half the effort!"

At this moment, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of Park Gwan-soo’s mouth: "When we achieve success and fame, what kind of woman won't you be able to play with? And no one will ever hold your secrets over you again, threatening you or stabbing you in the back."

"Don't you think so, Shijun?"

Park Gwan-soo was brainwashing Zhang Shijun intensely, because he had just seen Zhang Shijun’s intention to back out.

"You’re right, Gwan-soo."

Chairman Wu’s appearance was like a shot of adrenaline for Zhang Shijun; Zhang Shijun’s final unease vanished.

If he had to rely on himself and Park Gwan-soo to take on the Sunyang Group alone, Zhang Shijun would have no confidence at all.

But with Chairman Wu, the odds of success would increase significantly.

"If there is anything I can do for this matter, Chairman Wu and Gwan-soo, just give the order."

"We will."

Chairman Wu and Park Gwan-soo responded with smiles.

"Now we just wait for the good news from Chen Yongji and Chen Dongji."

"Shijun, I’ll trouble you to keep an eye on this matter. After all, they are partners we picked up halfway; it’s never as reassuring as having our own people do things."

Zhang Shijun could guess the meaning behind Park Gwan-soo’s words: asking him to keep an eye on things meant running errands! If something went wrong, Park Gwan-soo and Chairman Wu could distance themselves because he was the one who stepped forward.

Park Gwan-soo and Chairman Wu were just the people sitting behind the scenes.

And Chairman Wu was Park Gwan-soo’s big financial backer behind the scenes, planning so much just to use Park Gwan-soo to swallow the Sunyang Group—he was truly ambitious.

Zhang Shijun wasn't a fool; having been around Cui Youzhen for so long, it was impossible for him not to understand these things.

But having boarded the pirate ship, Zhang Shijun could only grit his teeth and persist.

"No problem, leave it to me. Chairman Wu and Gwan-soo, just wait for my good news!"

Zhang Shijun drank the tea in his cup in one gulp, signifying that he was now completely tied to this matter, with no chance to pull out.

After drinking the liquor in his hand in one gulp, Zhang Shijun hesitated and said to Chairman Wu: "Chairman Wu’s ability is beyond doubt, but that dog Chen Daojun has many devious tricks; we cannot afford not to be on guard!"

"Hmph!"

"He’s just a brat who hasn't even grown his hair out yet; how did he manage to scare Shijun like this?"

Chairman Wu put down his wine glass and said dismissively.

When Zhang Shijun opened his mouth to say something else, he was interrupted by Park Gwan-soo: "Shijun! Didn't we all discuss this just now!"

"We’ll have Chen Yongji and Chen Dongji lure Chen Daojun into the trap, and then wipe them all out."

"Why are you still bothering Chairman Wu with these insignificant matters?"

Park Gwan-soo looked at Zhang Shijun with anger in his eyes; Chairman Wu was his big financial backer.

This kid Zhang Shijun clearly didn't believe in his plan and wanted to undermine him in front of Chairman Wu.

"I didn't, Gwan-soo..."

Zhang Shijun just felt the plan wasn't that secure, but seeing Park Gwan-soo’s expression now, he knew he had just said something he shouldn't have.

"It was my mistake!"

Zhang Shijun still had to rely on Park Gwan-soo, so of course he wouldn't go against him.

He could only silently endure the unease and anxiety in his heart.

"Shijun! I understand that your wife being with Chen Daojun and cuckolding you is something you’re definitely unhappy about."

When Chairman Wu heard this, interest immediately sparked in his eyes; he hadn't expected Zhang Shijun to be so miserable!

No wonder he was so wary of that brat Chen Daojun.

"Gwan-soo, I didn't..."

Zhang Shijun saw that Park Gwan-soo had actually brought this matter up again in front of Chairman Wu.

He wished he could tear this old bastard into pieces, but now, without power or influence, he could only grit his teeth and swallow this insult.

"Enough!"

"Gwan-soo’s plan is good. Even if that brat Chen Daojun has more schemes, he won't be able to resist Chen Yongji’s submission."

"Shijun! People must always look forward; you can't keep dwelling in the past."

Chairman Wu spoke to Zhang Shijun with the attitude of someone who had been through it all: "You should think more about the bright side. As long as Gwan-soo’s plan succeeds, what kind of woman won't you have in the future?"

"As long as you want, you can completely have his women in front of Chen Daojun, letting that brat know that what goes around comes around."

"Do you understand?"

Chairman Wu patted Zhang Shijun on the shoulder!

"I understand, Chairman Wu."

Zhang Shijun’s appearance of humbly accepting the advice pleased Chairman Wu.

"Shijun! You’re truly lucky today to be able to receive personal guidance from Chairman Wu."

"You must cherish it!"

Park Gwan-soo said with a chuckle, but in Zhang Shijun’s eyes, Park Gwan-soo’s appearance was that of a smiling tiger.

But Zhang Shijun could only force a smile to deal with the two, hoping that Chairman Wu was truly as powerful as Park Gwan-soo said.

He had to be able to defeat that dog Chen Daojun, otherwise his life would truly be ruined!

Subsequently, with Zhang Shijun and Park Gwan-soo intentionally or unintentionally flattering him, Chairman Wu was also all smiles.

The meal was quite enjoyable for everyone!

In the following days, the conspiracy against Chen Daojun by Chen Yongji, Park Gwan-soo, and the others unfolded in full swing.

But ever since Chen Daojun received the gift from Che Eun-sang, he had been playing games with the Tara girl group every day, having so much fun he forgot to go home.

Not to mention that Chen Daojun didn't know someone was plotting to take his life; even if he did, he would still be fearless.

His life was right there; whoever had the ability could come and take it.

If that person’s strength didn't meet his expectations, then Chen Daojun would strike back without hesitation.
