Chapter 5 Extortion Transactions

After trying on the wedding dress with Gao Jing, Zhuang Haowen was a little absent-minded.

The bell rang at this moment, Zhuang Haowen glanced at Gao Jing who was happily trying on a wedding dress, walked aside, and connected the phone.

The call was from a real estate agent, telling him someone was interested in his house.But because he was in a hurry to buy it and he had to buy it in cash, the price was nearly doubled. The agent said that the price might be higher in a few days.

"No need, I have to get 500 million before tomorrow." Zhuang Haowen lowered his voice, his tone was a little hasty, "I have already prepared the contract, and I can sign it tonight."

After speaking, Zhuang Haowen hung up the phone.He took a deep breath, his face serious.

"Hao Wen, are you okay?" Seeing his expression, Gao Jing stepped forward with some worry.

"No." Zhuang Haowen restrained his gloomy expression, smiled and said to Gao Jing, "There is something about the company."

"Then go get busy." Gao Jing said understandingly.

"But your wedding dress..." Zhuang Haowen pretended to hesitate.

"It's okay." Gao Jing smiled, "The company's affairs are important, and you can try on wedding dresses at any time."

Looking at such Gao Jing, Zhuang Haowen felt warm in his heart, bent down and kissed her forehead lightly, his eyes glowed with tenderness and affection.

When Zhuang Haowen returned to the company, Gao Feng was sitting in his office. Seeing him coming back, he couldn't help but sneered and said, "Our president is really busy, and he has to coax my cousin and come to the company, why don't I Tell uncle, don't come to the company, just stay at home and serve my cousin obediently."

Every sentence in Gao Feng's words is sarcasm, and anyone can hear the irony.Zhuang Haowen sat on the swivel chair, "Vice President Gao also seems to be very busy. Is the company's performance report ready? How about holding a board meeting tomorrow."

Gao Feng was choked by Zhuang Haowen, originally he wanted to humiliate Zhuang Haowen, but who knew he would take over instead.

At this time, the phone rang, and it was the secretary's announcement that there was a weekly reporter outside to visit.

Since Zhuang Haowen became the president of Brilliant Group, he immediately became a new generation of young talents, and almost all newspapers and weekly magazines published his news.It is not uncommon for reporters to interview every three days.

Zhuang Haowen looked at Gao Feng and raised his eyebrows, "Is there something else for Vice President Gao?"

Gao Feng got up angrily and left.

The reporter was a short, middle-aged man with dark skin and a peaked cap. He smiled at him innocently, "Mr. Zhuang, hello."

Zhuang Haowen stood up with a smile and shook hands without any airs.

Interviews begin shortly thereafter.

The first few simple questions were all about the development of the Brilliant Group, and gradually the topic turned to Zhuang Haowen.

"Will Mr. Zhuang's parents attend your wedding?"

Zhuang Haowen paused slightly, "I am an orphan and grew up in an orphanage since I was a child."

"I'm really sorry." Although the reporter said this, he didn't stop to ask more about Zhuang Haowen personally, "I heard that Mr. Zhuang was the chairman of the student union when he was in college, so he must have been pursued by many people, I don't know Did Mr. Zhuang fall in love when he was in college?"

Zhuang Haowen's expression was a little unnatural, and even the expression of the secretary next to him changed. This problem was obviously not within their expected range.

The reporter didn't know whether he didn't realize that this question was already a bit too personal, or he asked it on purpose.He looked at Zhuang Haowen, apparently waiting for his answer.

"No." Zhuang Haowen's tone was a little cold.

"The last question, Mr. Zhuang, do you like women?" The reporter suddenly asked such a question for some reason.

The tense strings in Zhuang Haowen's mind broke at once. He stared at the reporter in front of him, his dark eyes glowed with a cold light, dangerous and full of vigilance, his eyes gradually became dark and deep.

The secretary doesn't understand the meaning of this question, isn't it an obvious fact.

Zhuang Haowen is going to marry Gao Jing.

"I like you." The young man was saying to him sincerely, with a bright smile on his face.

Zhuang Haowen smiled indifferently, "You started talking in your sleep in broad daylight."

"I'm serious." Lin Ming looked at him stubbornly, and raised the corners of his lips, "How about it? Would you like to be my boyfriend?"

"I'm a man." The smile on Zhuang Haowen's face disappeared, and his eyes became dark.

"Of course I know." Lin Ming smiled, "I don't mind."

"I mind." Zhuang Haowen stared at him with unprecedented seriousness, "I'm not gay."

"Before I met you again, I wasn't either." Lin Ming was a little anxious, obviously he took a lot of courage to confess, "How is it? Are you going to agree or not? If you don't agree to me then...I will... "

"What about you?" Zhuang Haowen has heard a lot of confessions. It's the first time seeing someone like Lin Ming who is obviously guilty and scared, but still pretends to be confident.

Lin Ming was a little angry at Zhuang Haowen's attitude as if he was joking, "Do you agree or not!"

Zhuang Haowenming knew that he should refuse, but looking at Lin Ming's dark eyes full of hope, he couldn't speak for a while.

"Let me think about it." Zhuang Haowen clearly felt the influence of Lin Ming on him. Since they became friends, Lin Ming has been pestering him non-stop, running to the university every day.

Zhuang Haowen had never seen Lin Ming approaching him without any purpose. Slowly, he subtly recognized Lin Ming's existence.With him, there is an inexplicable sense of comfort and relaxation, which no previous girlfriend could bring to him.If he rejected Lin Ming, he might lose such a friend.Thinking of this, Zhuang Haowen's heart suddenly became very uncomfortable, as if the surrounding air became unsmooth.

At this time, Zhuang Haowen suddenly realized that subconsciously, he seemed to have determined that Lin Ming was his property, and wanted to possess it forever.This thought made him startled, flustered, and even more at a loss.

Lin Ming pursued Zhuang Haowen eagerly, even though there was a big gap between them.One is a college student with a bright future, and the other is a gangster who has done nothing.Even so, Lin Ming had no intention of giving up at all.

Lin Ming is the kind of person who is so passionate that he is almost stubborn. As long as he recognizes a person, he will treat him unilaterally.

Zhuang Haowen thought, maybe he was attracted by his ignorant and fearless courage at the beginning, so he made the craziest decision in his life.

In the evening, when Zhuang Haowen drove to the container terminal, he saw a figure leaning against the car, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time.

Zhuang Haowen got out of the car and saw the appearance of the person coming, "So it's you."

"Mr. Zhuang, we meet again." With a smile on the corner of the man's mouth, he looked at him leisurely.There is no trace of honesty on the dark face.

It was the reporter who visited him during the day, Zhuang Haowen vaguely remembered his name, Wu Qiang.

"How is it? Did you bring the money?" Wu Qiang's eyes were full of greed.

"What about the film?"

Wu Qiang sneered, took out a kraft paper bag from the car, and took out the negatives inside, "Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhuang's taste is really unique."

When Zhuang Haowen saw the negative, his eyes darkened instantly, and even his tone became hurried, suppressing his anger, "Who the hell are you? How did you get the photo and the ring?"

Wu Qiang smiled, "Me? I'm not a reporter. Unfortunately, the photo was taken seven years ago when I was a private investigator. I didn't think there was anything, until I saw you in a magazine recently, I thought it looked familiar, so I flipped through the old photos, who knew that I would discover such a shocking secret."

"Where's the ring?"

"I saw a ring with the same pattern on the photo, so I copied it. Are there any questions?"

Zhuang Haowen checked the negatives in his hand, with suspicion in his eyes, "How do I know, do you have a backup?"

Wu Qiang smiled, "Mr. Zhuang, how dare I lie to you?"

Zhuang Haowen took out two boxes containing money from the car and opened them, his face was gloomy, "You'd better not talk nonsense after receiving the money."

"Of course." Wu Qiang grinned, picked up the box, got into the car, and drove away.

Zhuang Haowen looked at the film in his hand, his dark eyes glowed with a cold light, his thin lips were tightly pursed, showing no emotion.

In the evening, the moonlight shines brightly through the window and sprinkles on the table.

In the darkness, there was no expression on Zhuang Haowen's face. With his slender fingers, he picked up the lighter and lit the film in his hand. The flames spread rapidly, and each photo was thrown into the red flame, and the figures on the photos gradually changed. Blurred and distorted.

The fire blazed like a fire snake, making a hissing sound.

He will burn his past, and those good, happy, sad, and dark memories will be completely deleted from his mind.

He must start again, Zhuang Haowen said to himself, he must not be burdened by the past anymore, absolutely not.
