Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

"Thank you, General Manager Wang."

Zhao Xingfang hated Wang Erhai to death in her heart, but on the surface she still had no choice but to thank Wang Erhai.

Because she already had no choice.

Wang Erhai smiled:

"The one you should thank is General Manager Zhang, not me. There's nothing more for you here, you can go."

Zhao Xingfang gave Zhang Tianhe a resentful look, then turned and left.

Zhang Tianhe didn't dare meet Zhao Xingfang's gaze, forcibly pretending he hadn't seen anything.

But in his heart he resented Zhang Sheng — wasn't it agreed that Zhao Xingfang would be sent in? Letting Zhao Xingfang run loose like this, when she comes back to settle accounts with Zhang Tianhe later, it'll probably be another huge headache.

Yet he didn't know that Zhang Sheng deliberately intended to keep Zhao Xingfang.

This chess piece Zhao Xingfang, in his eyes, was extremely useful.

For one, she could check Zhang Tianhe; for another, at a necessary moment she could coldly deal a blow to Wang Erhai.

Seeing a key general she had personally supported brought down just like that by Zhang Sheng joining forces with Wang Erhai, Zhang Tianhe and several other stinking men, Wu Moli felt extremely displeased in her heart, but things had come to this point and there was nothing more to say.

However, this matter aroused a sense of crisis in her heart.

Actually, long ago she already knew she couldn't completely rely on Zhang Sheng; she must have her own independent career.

And this incident today made her feel even more strongly that this idea was correct.

She must push forward her own career as soon as possible.

Wang Erhai's first fire after taking office, with Zhang Sheng's support, burned extremely smoothly.

So the subsequent work to be carried out would be much easier.

Although those executives are all cunning among the cunning, impossible to deal with lightly, it is precisely because they are cunning among the cunning that they are even more aware that Wang Erhai's orders must be obeyed — at least in the current environment, they cannot lightly provoke Wang Erhai.

After all, standing behind Wang Erhai are Zhang Sheng and Zhang Tianhe.

All strategies formulated by Wang Erhai almost represent the will of Zhang Sheng and Zhang Tianhe.

After Zhao Xingfang resigned from Liguo Mountain, that very evening she called Zhang Tianhe.

Zhang Tianhe saw it was Zhao Xingfang calling; the phone rang several times, but he deliberately didn't answer.

Zhao Xingfang sent him a text: "If you don't pick up my call, I'll go straight to your house and find your wife."

Zhang Tianhe was scared; he had no choice, and when Zhao Xingfang called again, he could only answer.

"What is it? I'm very busy with work." Zhang Tianhe's opening words were impatient, keeping distance from Zhao Xingfang.

Back when he whipped the small leather whip hard onto Zhao Xingfang's body, his attitude certainly wasn't like this.

"Zhang Tianhe, you still have the nerve to ask me what's wrong? This morning, Wang Erhai used me as the knife, why didn't you speak up for me!"

Zhao Xingfang questioned angrily.

Zhang Tianhe's head ached:

"In that situation, could I speak up for you? Wang Erhai has Zhang Sheng backing him, and Zhang Sheng is now the company's power holder; if I speak up for you, not only would I fail to protect you, I'd offend Zhang Sheng, and might end up like Huo Guoqiang!"

Zhao Xingfang knew Zhang Tianhe was speaking the honest truth, but this concerned her own interests, and now was not the time to lecture on principles, so she said:

"My losses are huge now, I don't care, you have to compensate me!"

Zhang Tianhe just perfunctorily replied:

"Okay okay, wait till I get off duty later, I'll go to a nearby hotel and find you, I'll properly compensate you tonight, will that do?"

"That's not the compensation I'm talking about!"

Zhao Xingfang was furious; she knew Zhang Tianhe was playing dumb, avoiding the important and focusing on the trivial.

"Then how do you want me to compensate?" Zhang Tianhe wore a helpless expression.

Zhao Xingfang said:

"Zhang Sheng wants me to spit out all the oil and water I scraped together at Liguo Mountain; if I spit it all out, won't I be drinking the northwest wind? So this money, you come up with it!"

Zhang Tianhe was immediately stunned:

"No, that's money you scraped yourself, why should I pay?"

Zhao Xingfang pressed aggressively:

"Cut the crap, just answer me — pay, or not pay?"

Zhang Tianhe fell silent.

If Zhao Xingfang were facing Zhang Tianhe right now, she would definitely discover that Zhang Tianhe's features were gradually turning ferocious, the rage in his eyes unable to be contained, erupting outward.

But after a few seconds of silence, Zhang Tianhe said:

"Fine, I'll help you pay."

Zhang Tianhe compromised in the end.

Because he knew, at this moment the most important thing was not to quibble over gains and losses with Zhao Xingfang, but to stabilize Zhao Xingfang.

From his understanding of Zhao Xingfang, he knew that if he pushed Zhao Xingfang too far, she would absolutely bark like a mad dog everywhere, even bite people everywhere.

And that was absolutely not a situation he wanted to see.

"That's more like it!" Zhao Xingfang showed a satisfied expression, then pushed her luck further: "You have to help me find a job, monthly salary no less than twenty thousand!"

Zhang Tianhe's headache worsened:

"Where am I supposed to find you a job like that?"

Zhao Xingfang said:

"Anyway, I don't care. I cannot be without a job."

"Okay, okay, okay. When I turn back and find something, I'll tell you then." Zhang Tianhe could only agree verbally; stabilizing Zhao Xingfang was the top priority right now.

"You better not fob me off. Within one week, I must be on duty, otherwise you just watch and deal with it yourself!"

After Zhao Xingfang finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

She was furious, cursing to herself:

"Wang Erhai, you better not let me catch an opportunity. If I catch an opportunity, I'll make you pay back ten times over!"

Zhao Xingfang originally thought that by sacrificing herself to climb Zhang Tianhe's high branch, and using Zhang Tianhe's hand to squeeze Wang Erhai out of Liguo Mountain, she would never have any dealings with Wang Erhai again for a lifetime.

She never expected that after only this long, Wang Erhai would actually kill his way back.

Truly, man proposes but heaven disposes!

And at this time, on the other side, after Zhang Tianhe hung up Zhao Xingfang's call, he was also very unhappy.

He immediately went to Zhang Sheng's office, found Zhang Sheng, and confronted him face to face.

"General Manager Zhang, what you told me last night wasn't like this at all. You doing it this way makes things very difficult for me!"

Zhang Tianhe expressed dissatisfaction right from his first words.

This old fox Zhang Sheng would naturally feign innocence; he hurriedly explained in a polite and gentle tone:

"Brother Tianhe, I know you're having a hard time, but don't get angry first. Isn't this for your own good?"

Zhang Sheng directly addressed Zhang Tianhe as "Brother Tianhe" to draw their relationship closer.

He was the same with Wang Erhai; whenever he needed to curry favor with Wang Erhai, he would call him "Erhai" every other word, with an extremely intimate tone.

"Heh, for my own good?" Zhang Tianhe laughed in anger. "I'd like to see just how you're doing this for my own good."

Zhang Sheng hurriedly poured a cup of tea for Zhang Tianhe, then said courteously:

"Think about it. If Zhao Xingfang really gets taken away by public security, can she avoid exposing the black material between you and her?"

Zhang Tianhe said angrily:

"Last night you didn't say it like this. You said you have connections in the County Public Security Bureau; even if she exposes that black material, you can help me suppress it!"

But Zhang Sheng said:

"I can help you suppress it, but what if Huo Guoqiang takes the opportunity to stir up trouble behind the scenes, uses this Zhao Xingfang matter to secretly stuff black material to your wife's side? Then what will you do?"

Zhang Tianhe's heart gave a jolt upon hearing this.

He hadn't thought of this layer before.

But what Zhang Sheng said had some reason to it.

Back when Zhang Sheng squeezed Huo Guoqiang out and yet appointed Zhang Tianhe as Chairman of Liguo Mountain, on this matter Huo Guoqiang would definitely be dissatisfied with him, Zhang Tianhe, in his heart, even feeling that Zhang Tianhe stabbed him in the back at the critical moment.

Seeing Zhang Tianhe stop speaking, Zhang Sheng knew he had persuaded Zhang Tianhe, so he hurriedly added:

"I want to send Zhao Xingfang to prison even more than you do, but some things, going too far is as bad as not going far enough. Keeping Zhao Xingfang, then if your wife discovers clues at that time, you can also have Zhao Xingfang help you run interference, have Zhao Xingfang help you prove that nothing happened between the two of you."

Zhang Tianhe heard this and also felt it made sense.

But he still felt depressed:

"But Zhao Xingfang wants me to help her get back the money she scooped up."

Zhang Sheng readily said:

"This isn't simple? You give it to her first. Once she returns the money to the company, I'll immediately transfer this sum to your company's name in the name of project investment!"

Zhang Tianhe heard this and felt this was acceptable too; at least he wouldn't count as losing out.

But he also faintly felt something was off.

This Zhang Sheng, isn't he just cycling Zhang Tianhe's money around a circle, and then still needs Zhang Tianhe to thank him?

This old fox spirit is truly cunning!

But he also had to admit that Zhang Sheng taking the initiative to offer to return the money to him was already the best situation he could get so far.

On the money matter, he just accepted it like this!

"But Zhao Xingfang still wants me to help her find a job, and wants a monthly salary of twenty thousand. Where am I supposed to find her such a high-paying job?"

Zhang Tianhe's face was still depressed.

This is a big problem!

Zhang Sheng said:

"How about you put her in your Tianhe Real Estate? Give her a sinecure, monthly salary twenty thousand to humor her, stabilize her emotions first, wait for an opportunity later then kick her out with one foot."

But Zhang Tianhe said:

"No! Tianhe Real Estate is nominally under my control, but actually my wife watches it like a hawk. If I suddenly arrange a woman to go in, with such a high salary of twenty thousand a month, my wife would find it hard not to know! Why not throw her into your Huangsheng Real Estate? The salary I can pay, but the person you have to take in!"

Zhang Tianhe thought this condition was a bit difficult for Zhang Sheng; after all, Zhang Sheng also has a wife.

But he wasn't really asking Zhang Sheng to take in Zhao Xingfang; rather, he wanted to propose an excessive demand, then negotiate a compromise with Zhang Sheng, a plan both could accept.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Sheng thought for a bit, then actually agreed:

"Fine, then arrange Zhao Xingfang into my company!"

Zhang Tianhe heard this and immediately showed surprise.

It was obvious he completely hadn't expected Zhang Sheng would agree so readily.

"For real or fake? You better not lie to me!"

Zhang Sheng smiled:

"Rest assured, a gentleman's word is his bond."
