Transmigrating into a book to save her best friend, her sickly husband vies for her affections every
Chapter 35 is just the beginning of the first cut.
Although Zhang Zhan was the heir apparent at that time, he had very little experience of the world. When someone took him to a beast taming center, the man was happy for days. He thought that since someone was paying him, and he had nothing better to do, he would take Zhang Zhan there for a stroll.
Xu Tutu: "Zhang Zhan, why aren't you saying anything? What, has my family treated you badly? Have I treated you badly? Every time I send things to Zhao Jiu, I send them to you too! Those things aren't cheap! You wouldn't even see them in your Marquis's mansion!"
Zhao Siwei spat, "What don't my family have? If you want to send it, send two portions!"
Xu Tutu got angry: "I'm talking to Zhang Zhan, so shut up. Zhang Zhan, have I ever bullied you? Have I ever been bad to you? When have I ever looked down on you? When you argued with Zhao Siwei, did I ever help you? I've helped you quite a few times!"
"If you hadn't shut your mouth, would Zhang Zhan and I have been able to argue? Would you have even gotten my aunt to come and give me a beating? I'm not one to hold grudges. If you bring up old grievances again, I'll settle both old and new scores!"
Zhang Zhan sensed something was wrong, so he clutched his head and cried out, "My head hurts."
Xu Tutu exclaimed, "Let me see!" She was worried something bad might actually happen.
Zhao Siwei: !!!
We can't let Xu Tutu go and fawn over us!
Zhang Zhan was also startled by Xu Tutu. Men and women should keep their distance and not touch him!
He moved to the side, and Zhao Siwei also reached out to grab Zhang Zhan.
Once the man was brought to his side, Zhao Siwei took out a handkerchief and pressed it against Zhang Zhan's wound before dragging him out.
Xu Tutu stomped her foot angrily, "How could I kill Zhang Zhan! Is Zhang Zhan still a friend?! Zhao Siwei didn't understand what I just said, but you certainly do!"
Zhao Siwei pretended not to hear Xu Tutu's words and led the person out.
Zhang Zhan had his head covered and couldn't see the road clearly. "Slow down, I'm fine."
Zhao Siwei: "I just got back. There's something I need to tell you."
Zhang Zhan responded with an "oh".
Tingyao glanced at him curiously, and Ji Fuguang pulled her along, saying, "I'm curious too, let's eavesdrop."
Tingyao and he hit it off immediately.
Zhao Siwei and Zhang Zhan were talking in the alley outside the door.
The guards, seeing that it was Tingyao who was eavesdropping, did not show themselves to stop her.
But the two of them didn't dare to lift it over; they hid by the wall, peeking out with only one eye.
Deep in the alley, Zhao Siwei rubbed his hands together as he looked at Zhang Zhan. "There are two things I want to tell you. One is very bad, but the other is not so bad compared to this. Which one do you want me to tell you first?"
Zhang Zhan was in a very bad mood and felt that he should hold a Buddhist ceremony to get rid of the bad luck!
He was blunt: "I could kill myself right now and make your life miserable. Do you want to see that?"
Zhao Siwei: "..."
In that case, we can't continue talking.
Zhang Zhan looked at him, raised his chin, and gestured for him to speak quickly and stop dawdling.
“I’ve withdrawn all the money you deposited in the bank under my name. I’ve used it all up.”
Zhang Zhan remained calm, but the slight tilt of his head and his movement as he leaned closer to Zhao Siwei betrayed his disbelief.
The meaning conveyed by the action is very clear.
—I didn't hear you clearly, could you say it again?
"The money is gone, I've spent it all."
Zhao Siwei repeated it once.
Zhang Zhan was afraid that the Marquis's mansion would covet the money he had earned, so he deposited all the money in various banks in Zhao Siwei's name, while Zhao Siwei could use it at will.
Zhao Siwei generally doesn't use this method; he's not short of money at all. But when he remembers, he'll check the amount and round it up to make it easier to remember, so Zhang Zhan won't overthink it.
Zhang Zhan's eyes widened, his voice barely audible, "All of them?" He felt that Zhao Siwei was joking with him; that sum of money was no small amount.
Zhao Siwei raised his hand to tell him to wait.
Zhang Zhan breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest. It was good that it wasn't him.
Then Zhao Siwei said, "I also bought all the land you asked me to manage and turned it into silver."
These lands were acquired by Zhang Zhan's grandparents so that the Marquis's mansion could distribute Zhang Zhan's rightful share of the family property ahead of time.
However, although he gave it to them openly, he secretly wanted to acquire it. So Zhang Zhan transferred all the land to Zhao Siwei. Even though the Marquis's mansion knew that Zhao Siwei was helping them, they didn't dare to compete with the royal family for the land and could only give up.
Zhang Zhan stared straight at Zhao Siwei, pointing his finger at Zhao Siwei's face, "Do you know how much money this is? Where is your money?"
Zhao Siwei had a lot of money, more than he could spend, and he even gave it to Zhang Zhan to learn how to do business. Zhang Zhan lost a little money in the early stages, but made a lot of money later. As long as Zhao Siwei didn't start any rebellion, he could spend a little and lose a little, and he would never be able to spend it all in his lifetime.
Zhao Siwei nodded calmly and told him again, "It's all spent..."
It means we're both poor; if you run out of money, I'll squander mine too.
He's really racked his brains over spending, and he doesn't know what to do with the money anymore.
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Zhan fainted.
His money, Zhao Siwei squandered it all in one go.
Zhao Siwei seemed to have anticipated this, and helped him up to prevent him from falling to the ground. He touched the tip of his nose with his fingertip to make sure he wasn't dead from anger, and then called someone in to take him to see a doctor.
Ji Fuguang was so frightened that he went inside to help, saying, "I'll escort Prince Zhang back to the Marquis's residence."
We have to go and follow them. If we let Xu Tutu's family go and chatter on first, wouldn't the Ji family bear all the consequences?
Tingyao looked at Zhao Siwei, her face clearly saying, "Please explain."
Zhao Siwei, with his hands behind his back, looked at Zhang Zhan, who had already been helped onto the carriage, and still gave an order, "Don't hurt his head."
Then, he said to Tingyao, "Connections, women, and money are all indispensable for his success. I can destroy and subvert the first one in just a few days. Women and money are simpler."
"I think you didn't just have it, you moved it, right?"
"No, it's been spent," Zhao Siwei replied. Zhang Zhan would definitely investigate immediately once he woke up, and if the transfer wasn't thorough, it would only arouse his suspicion.
"I'm just using the same methods he used on me before, returning the favor exactly as they were." Zhao Siwei's eyes crinkled into a smile.
In his previous life, when he needed money to start doing things, he found that he only had tens of thousands of taels of silver at his disposal.
However, his own personal savings amounted to far more than that.
Upon investigation, it was discovered that Zhang Zhan had transferred the money in advance.
He wanted to slap himself, because he himself had said that Zhang Zhan could take his money at will.
In this lifetime, I'm just going to repay him for what I did wrong.
It's only the first cut.
Tingyao reminded him, "Have you considered that you are forcing him?"
Zhang Zhan's betrayal was inevitable in the plot, but whether it happened sooner or later, the impact on Zhao Siwei would be different.
“At least I forced him to kill me, so I was asking for it, rather than him killing me for reasons I still don’t understand.” Zhao Siwei met her gaze. “Heaven has taken pity on me and given me another chance. I can give everyone around me a second chance, except for Zhang Zhan…”
"Only Zhang Zhan?" Tingyao asked again, "How so?"
A fierce hatred flashed in Zhao Siwei's eyes.
"Only towards him, this hatred is endless."
