Seriously injured in a car accident, his wife confessed her love for his "white moonlight"
Chapter 81 Six People, Eight Clues
Xu Tian's heart sank. Even if Zhao Jing didn't say anything, he could guess what was going on.
“That old man took the fruits of your hard work to curry favor with the leaders, and that’s bad enough, but now he won’t even answer my calls.”
Zhao Jing is straightforward, especially when someone goes back on their word first; she'd love to blow up Zhang Wei's office with tons of explosives right then and there.
"Don't worry, the results aren't out yet," Xu Tian reassured him.
Zhao Jing said angrily, "Why hasn't he come out yet? I've already heard rumors that Zhang Wei has obtained government permission and official documents, and has already taken people to the development zone."
"When the villagers saw the guarantees on the official document, wouldn't they immediately agree?"
Zhao Jing was practically pacing around anxiously over such an urgent matter, but Xu Tian acted as if it were none of his business, which was simply adding fuel to the fire.
"What's wrong with you? You're the one who convinced those villagers. We've done so much just to secure the entire project in that area, haven't we?"
"You're driving me crazy!"
Zhao Jing's face turned red with anger.
Xu Tian laughed and said, "Things haven't reached the final step yet, how do you know he can convince those people?"
Zhao Jing frowned. "You mean..."
“I guarantee he’ll come back the same way he went, and he’ll have to beg us.”
Xu Tian deliberately kept everyone in suspense.
Zhao Jing sighed, "This is it, I'm going to get a beating when I get home."
Since Hengtong Group won the bid yesterday, Zhao Pengfei has not been giving her a friendly look, but he has not made a scene out of consideration for his mother.
But Zhao Lei was different. Whenever he saw her, he would make sarcastic remarks. Since Xinyu didn't dare to confront Zhao Lei directly, she suffered a lot of disdain from the Zhao family.
Moreover, Zhao Lei was determined to embarrass her, saying that his family hadn't eaten together in a long time and that they would all be there the next night, and that he would also take the opportunity to report on his work.
"How about I go with you?" Xu Tian asked.
Zhao Jing thought for a moment. Her father liked to see Xu Tian because of Chu Lan. If Xu Tian went with her, her situation might be better.
"It can only be this way."
Development zone.
Zhang Wei arrived at the village in a flurry of activity and displayed the official document that had been printed.
"The government has agreed to your requests. You must fully cooperate in the following work."
The group, led by the father, were all smiles, and the weight on their hearts was lifted.
That young man named Xu Tian is really capable; he keeps his word. So their job problems will definitely be solved too.
Zhang Wei had no idea what they were up to, so he immediately called the developer with whom he had a good relationship.
These bosses may not be the top entrepreneurs in Jiangcheng, but they are the ones who give him the most benefits on a regular basis.
As for Zhao Jing and Xu Tian, he had long since forgotten about them.
Using people when they need them and discarding them when they don't is Zhang Wei's consistent principle as a seasoned veteran.
A short while later, Zhang Wei's so-called "friends" arrived. After exchanging pleasantries, they all expressed their sincerity.
Zhang Wei was very satisfied with this. After considering it, he planned to recommend them to his superiors in a little while and let them complete the project here.
Naturally, Zhang Wei's desires would also be filled by these people.
The next night.
Zhao family.
Xu Tian and Zhang Qian looked at each other in bewilderment.
Zhang Qian was invited by Zhao Lei, and having dinner with Zhao Pengfei at the Zhao family home was something Zhang Qian never dared to dream of, so she came.
Xu Tian was invited by Zhao Jing, so the two naturally bumped into each other.
"You didn't tell me Xu Tian would be coming. You know, I'm divorced from him, so my situation is a bit awkward," Zhang Qian whispered.
Zhao Lei turned his head and said, "It's okay, we're the main characters this time, don't worry."
Nevertheless, Zhang Qian still felt uneasy seeing Zhao Jing sitting next to Xu Tian, looking serene and content.
Xu Tian, after entering the room and finding her there, didn't even glance at her.
Zhao Jing glanced at Xu Tian furtively.
"When did Zhao Lei get involved with your ex-wife?"
Xu Tian shrugged; he didn't know either.
There were six people at the table, but eight hundred new eyes.
"Who is this…"
Zhao Pengfei thought Zhang Qian looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who she was.
Zhao Lei hurriedly introduced, "Dad, this is Zhang Qian, the chairman of Hengtong Group. I've mentioned her to you before."
"Hello, Mr. Zhao." Zhang Qian said with a smile.
Zhao Pengfei nodded. The company that won the bid this time was Hengtong Group, which was under Zhang Qian's name. He was quite surprised that she was so young.
Zhao Lei added, "Dad, didn't you tell me to hang out with people who have real talent and ability? I took that to heart."
"Mr. Zhang is young and promising; you should definitely learn from him," Zhao Pengfei praised.
Zhang Qian wore a polite smile. "You can just call me Qianqian. How could I dare to call myself 'General Manager' in front of you?"
Zhao Lei chimed in, "Dad, look how humble Qianqian is."
"Don't be shy when you come to my house, please have plenty of food."
Zhao's mother smiled and placed a piece of fish on Zhang Qian's plate.
Zhao Jing was filled with resentment. It was always like this; her mother always tried to please outsiders first. She didn't know who her real daughter was.
Zhao Lei saw through Zhao Jing's thoughts and couldn't help but tease her.
"Zhao Jing, I thought you were really capable, since you were so serious with Dad the other day. Turns out you don't even qualify for the bidding. So what have you been busy with all this time, leaving early and coming home late?"
"How do you know I didn't?" Zhao Jing asked with a smile.
Zhao Lei snorted coldly, "I told you, not everyone can become a strong woman like Chu Lan, except for our Qianqian, right, Xu Tian?"
Zhao Lei mentioned two people in one sentence, and the reason he included Xu Tian was because Xu Tian didn't give him any face.
Zhao Lei had called him several times to invite him out for dinner, but he refused with various excuses.
The purpose of calling Zhang Qian over was also to annoy Xu Tian.
"You can criticize me, but why bring him along? You have no manners!" Zhao Jing said coldly.
Zhao Lei smiled and said, "It's true that women and petty men are the hardest to deal with. I didn't even mean it that way. Look at you."
"You know perfectly well whether it's true or not!"
Seeing the atmosphere becoming tense, Zhao Pengfei quickly gave his mother a meaningful look.
Zhao's mother then smiled and said, "We're all family. Zhao Lei was just joking with you. Don't be angry, Jingjing. Harmony brings wealth."
Zhao Lei, however, was unmoved and continued, "Dad, I forgot to tell you, Qianqian has decided to work with me on this project we won."
"Is that really true?" Zhao Pengfei was overjoyed.
Zhang Qian spoke up at the opportune moment, "It's like this, although this project isn't large, the requirements are very strict. Working with Zhao Lei is a perfect match in every aspect, so I've decided that the two companies will work together."
"Good good!"
Zhao Pengfei praised Zhao Lei repeatedly, and couldn't help but place high hopes on him. As for Zhang Qian, he had been in business for so many years and could see through her intentions at a glance.
