Seriously injured in a car accident, his wife confessed her love for his "white moonlight"

Three million isn't much, it's even less than a car for him, but Zhao Lei, as the future successor of the Zhao family, is good for nothing. He loses three million today, what about tomorrow? What about the day after?

Moreover, the subsidiary handed over to Zhao Lei was relatively mature, even more so than the small, inexperienced company given to Zhao Jing.

Anyone with a modicum of business sense wouldn't have lost three million!

How could this not make Zhao Pengfei angry?

In addition, the Xu Group rarely cooperates with external companies. Over the years, the Zhao Group has always been the second largest enterprise after the Xu Group. However, despite this, there have only been two opportunities for cooperation.

The Hengtong Group, which wasn't particularly outstanding, had always maintained a close cooperative relationship with the Xu Group. So when the Xu Group announced that it was going to cooperate with an outside company, he felt that this was a way to bring the two companies closer together.

This was also an opportunity for Zhao Lei to train himself, but he was so incompetent that he didn't even get to see Chu Lan.

This is what caused Zhao Pengfei to fly into a rage.

However, when Zhao Pengfei saw Xu Tian again, he felt that there was a chance for this matter. His divorce from Zhang Qian, the chairman of Hengtong Group, had caused a great stir, and he had also met Chu Lan at the banquet.

Furthermore, Hengtong Group has always maintained close cooperation with Xu's Group, and from these aspects, Xu Tiandu plays a significant role.

"Dad, don't be angry. My brother just made a mistake temporarily. Give him some more time."

Zhao Pengfei sighed, then laughed and said, "You're the most considerate one. Zhao Lei is a good-for-nothing who's always irritating me. You're much more worry-free."

Zhao Jing pouted, "Then why are you so biased? You gave him such an advantageous company, but left me with a mess."

"That's because I know you'll definitely do a better job than him. Besides, it's good for you to gain experience. Look at how well you're managing your business, isn't it?"

Even so, Zhao Jing knew that Zhao Pengfei was still a sexist at heart, believing that the family business should be undertaken by the sons, while she, as a daughter, only needed to be raised in luxury.

Some things can't be said so bluntly, so Zhao Jing just smiled and didn't say what was on her mind.

"Come, come, try the tea that Auntie brewed."

At this moment, Zhao's mother came out of the kitchen and warmly poured Xu Tian a cup of tea.

"Thank you, Auntie." Xu Tian smiled and accepted the gift.

Just then, Zhao Lei came in from outside.

Zhao Pengfei snorted coldly, but he wasn't as angry as before. Seeing this, he dared to sit down next to Xu Tian.

"Dad, please don't be angry. I will definitely handle this matter well this time, so please don't worry."

Zhao Pengfei knew perfectly well that Zhao Lei was after Xu Tian, ​​but that was exactly what he wanted, so he didn't give him a hard time.

"It's good that you know this. In the future, you should associate less with those shady friends and spend more time with people like Xu Tian," Zhao Pengfei said earnestly.

Zhao Lei nodded. "Dad, you're right. I understand."

Seeing the father and son's coordinated performance, Zhao Jing immediately guessed their intentions and smiled calmly.

"Dad, I heard that the Xu Group is going to cooperate with an outside company this time. Our Zhao Group is a big and powerful company, we can't compete with a small company like ours!"

Zhao Pengfei laughed, "How could that be? I'll leave the opportunities to you young people. I won't compete with you."

Zhao Jing glanced at Xu Tian and then said, "Then I heard that the Zhao Group is also vying for this project."

Zhao Pengfei was taken aback, then looked at Zhao Lei.

He only wanted to bring the Zhao Group and the Xu Group closer together through this cooperation, which is why he had Zhao Lei negotiate the cooperation in the name of his own company. He probably thought Zhao Lei was a useless person who was just using the Zhao Group's name to promote himself everywhere.

"Dad, you're not biased towards my brother, are you? You're trying to win this project for him, aren't you?" Zhao Jing pouted.

Zhao Pengfei quickly denied it, "No, that's not true. I've always loved you the most. Whether you can seize this opportunity depends on yourselves."

Xu Tian listened to a lot from the side, and he saw Zhao Jing's situation in the Zhao family very clearly. It was also hard for Zhao Jing to develop such a carefree personality in a family environment where she was constantly fighting with her half-brother.

"I'm not afraid Xu Tian will laugh at me, but with your little company, you think you can cooperate with the Xu Group? What are you thinking!" Zhao Lei sneered.

Zhao Jing glared at him. "So what? At least I didn't lose money, unlike you, who always makes Dad angry and I have to clean up your messes."

"Zhao Jing, at least call me 'brother'! How can you talk to your brother like that? Don't think you can have a say in this family just because Chu Lan praised you a few times!"

Zhao Lei said angrily.

"okay!"

Zhao Pengfei frowned, "There are guests here, aren't you afraid of making a fool of yourselves!"

Zhao Lei scoffed, "What I said was the truth. Did you really think that having a small, run-down company was all that great!"

Zhao Jing was too lazy to argue with him. Besides, she brought this up not to quarrel with Zhao Lei, but for another purpose.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jing said, "Dad, you promise you won't interfere this time. We'll each rely on our own abilities!"

Zhao Lei was utterly disdainful of this. Even if he couldn't secure the cooperation with the Xu Group, he would never let it fall into Zhao Jing's hands.

Zhao Pengfei smiled indulgently, "Alright, I won't interfere this time. You two siblings can each use your strengths. In addition, I promise that whoever wins this cooperation, I will transfer one percent of the shares of Zhao's Group to them. How about it?"

"You keep your word!" Zhao Jing stood up excitedly from the sofa.

Zhao Lei sneered, "You're already so impatient before anything's even happened. I really don't know who you took after."

Zhao's mother gave an awkward smile, "Who else could he take after? He must have taken after your father!"

Hmph, Zhao Lei didn't give his mother a smile.

One percent of the shares may not seem like much, but it allows one to access the resources of the Zhao Group, which is equivalent to having a place within the Zhao Group.

Zhao Lei, of course, didn't care. He had already acquired 20% of the shares in the Zhao Group when Zhao Pengfei divorced his biological mother.

However, since Zhao's mother married into the family and gave birth to Zhao Jing, she has only received 10% of the shares, and that is only Zhao's mother's own.

When Zhao's mother gave birth to Zhao Jing, Zhao Lei learned that Zhao Pengfei had secretly transferred shares to her. Zhao Lei told his grandparents directly, forcing Zhao Pengfei to draft an agreement that the shares would only be valid if the two got married. If they divorced, Zhao's mother would not get a penny.

This is why Zhao Jing values ​​this one percent of shares so much.

To gradually infiltrate the Zhao Group, she needed this one percent share as a stepping stone.

Sometimes Zhao Jing felt pathetic. She was Zhao Pengfei's biological daughter, but she had to spend a hundred times more effort and thought than Zhao Lei to rightfully enter the Zhao Group.

“I think Zhao Jing has a lot of potential,” Xu Tian said calmly.
