Chapter 148: Who’s In Charge
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
If Zhou Jingyun wanted to help Xie Wenkai, then Zhou Mingfei would definitely help him. As the heir of the Zhou family, Zhou Mingfei could use all the power of the Zhou family! In other words, as long as Xie Wenkai got along well with Zhou Jingyun, then he could borrow all the power of the Zhou family at a critical moment in the future!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis was very terrifying. Not only would it allow Xie Wenkai to stabilize his position immediately after taking over and suppress all the old foxes in the Six Blessings Corporation, but it would also be beneficial to the development and growth of the Six Blessings Corporation. Everyone knew that Zhou Jingyun was a person who did not like to socialize in private and rarely interacted with others. He was a friend in the business world, but he was a loner in private. Madam Xie could not understand why, why did Xie Wenkai’s relationship with Zhou Jingyun reach such a stage. However, this was not important. What was important was that Xie Wenkai and Zhou Jingyun should not turn against each other. It would be best if they could deepen their relationship.
Thinking of this, the joy on Madam Xie’s face intensified. “Director Zhou has such a good relationship with my son, Xie Wenkai. He must have many things in common with you, right? Actually, the two of you have a lot in common. Both of you have to manage your businesses and do a good job.” Madam Xie continued, “Speaking of which, Xie Wenkai doesn’t have many friends. Perhaps it’s because I manage him too well. He doesn’t have many close friends either. Xie Wenkai is very fortunate to be able to make friends with you, Director Zhou.”
“Don’t say that. What fortunate? Xie Wenkai is very outstanding. Anyone who is friends with him will be happy,” Zhou Jingyun said.
The tense atmosphere in the private room slowly disappeared as the conversation went on. From the moment Madam Xie didn’t want to offend Zhou Jingyun because of this incident and planned to make up for it, the atmosphere became better under her control. It also let them see another side of Madam Xie, the side that was good at socializing. There were too many rich ladies in City Z. Now, most of them had become the old wives in the family. When they were faced with their husband looking for other women outside, they could only choose to turn a blind eye. Thus, there was no need to mention what sort of status they had in City Z’s business circle. However, Madam Xie was different. Her status today was not entirely dependent on the Xie family. It was not entirely dependent on her husband, Xie Guofu. It was also not dependent on her status as a high-ranking official’s child. The title ‘virtuous wife’ was not given to her for nothing. The pace of the conversation in the next ten minutes was completely under Madam Xie’s control. She said some trivial things and turned them into a casual chat to build a closer relationship.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZhou Jingyun saw that the matter had been resolved and could not be bothered to put in any more effort. He went along with Madam Xie’s words and made the atmosphere become especially harmonious. One thing that was worth mentioning was that Madam Xie only spoke to Zhou Jingyun and did not say anything to Jiang Tong. She was holding a grudge. She had a very strong prejudice against Jiang Tong. Although Xie Wenkai did not pursue the matter and Zhou Jingyun did not pursue it either, it was fine since the situation had come to this point. She could only hide her prejudice in the bottom of her heart. In fact, there was another important reason why Madam Xie suddenly wanted to mend her relationship with Zhou Jingyun. She was worried that if they parted on bad terms, Jiang Tong would stir up trouble and whisper something in Zhou Jingyun’s ear. Therefore, Madam Xie had to block out this possibility in advance!
“It’s getting late, Director Zhou. You must be really tired. Why don’t you rest here for a while?” When they were almost done talking, Madam Xie glanced at her watch and stood up. She did not wait for Zhou Jingyun’s reply. She then said to Xie Wenkai, “Xie Wenkai, since you feel that mom has been too strict with you in the past, I know that you’re under a lot of pressure. Don’t go back today. Just come to the company tomorrow morning.” She then looked at Zhou Jingyun and said, “Director Zhou, I will let Xie Wenkai stay back with you to keep you company. It’s rare for Xie Wenkai to be relaxed, so I’ll have to trouble you to enlighten him.” Asking Xie Wenkai to stay with Zhou Jingyun to get some enlightenment was a lie. The truth was she wanted them to get closer. In any case, Xie Wenkai would have to go home sooner or later and return under Madam Xie’s control. In addition, Madam Xie was also on guard against Jiang Tong. With Zhou Jingyun around, Jiang Tong would definitely not cause any trouble, and with Xie Wenkai around, Jiang Tong would not be able to stir up trouble.
“Alright then.” Zhou Jingyun stood up and said a few more words to Madam Xie. He shook Madam Xie’s hand and Madam Xie left with her people. When Madam Xie left, she even glanced at Jiang Tong vaguely, her eyes were filled with unfriendliness.
Jiang Tong ignored her indifferently. She even wanted to laugh. Jiang Tong could guess what Madam Xie was thinking. Moreover, she would soon let Madam Xie understand that not only did she want to stir up trouble, but she also wanted Madam Xie to understand that since Xie Guofu had not abdicated his position, would Madam Xie have the final say in the Xie family or would it be her son, Xie Wenkai, the successor to the family, who had the final say!
