Chapter 856: Who Is Plotting Against Them? (4)

As soon as he finished speaking, there was pin-drop silence in the office.

Zhuang Nainai’s eyes widened as she looked at Cheng Sizhe. Confusion and apprehension struck her for a moment. Inexplicably, she was also curious and paranoid.

Although her life was tough in the past, she had always been working for others. Hence, she had never experienced something like this. She just knew that she could receive her pay and support her family as long as she did her job well. She always thought that hard work would bring rewards. The most twisted part she and the people around her had experienced was none other than the people in the office. They would ask pretty girls to drink with other people or bully new colleagues. She had never known that these people could plot against others so easily — so much so that someone could lose $200,000 instantly.

Dazed, she looked ahead, only to see Cheng Sizhe fiddle with his hair hanging down his forehead.

Zhuang Nainai could not help but ask, “Why are they doing this? Why does the deposit require $200,000? What is their motive?”

When she finished speaking, she knew that she had asked a dumb question.

Why were they doing this? Of course they were doing this to oppress Cheng Sizhe.

She pursed her lips and lowered her head. In that very moment, she felt like life had opened another window for her, allowing her to see a whole new world.

It seemed like she finally understood how complicated rich people’s world was.

Just as she was in a daze, Cheng Sizhe sighed and stood up.

Zhuang Nainai asked foolishly, “What are you going to do now?”

Cheng Sizhe pursed his lips before saying, “I’ll think of something. I have no choice but to look for someone to inject capital in this business.”

After saying this, he furrowed his brows, looking troubled. He rubbed his temples and sighed. He knew that this was not going to be easy.

Thereafter, he raised his head and took a look at a lost Zhuang Nainai, and then at Si Zhengting, before he waved his hand and said, “All of you can get off work now. I need some time alone.”

Upon saying this, he turned around and walked toward his office.

Looking at his back, Zhuang Nainai had wanted to say something. However, at the thought of her position, she nodded obediently and walked out with Xu Dazhi.

Zhuang Nainai sighed deeply. “Does a rich man have to care about $200,000? Can’t he just take out his own money?”

After she said this, Xu Dazhi said in a hoarse voice, as if something was lodged in his throat, “For someone in a big family like his, starting their own business is a challenge. They would be given a start-up capital of around tens of millions of dollars. But Cheng Sizhe’s circumstances are unusual. His family wants him to experience some failures, so they wouldn’t give him anything.”

Zhuang Nainai: “...” They would use tens of millions of dollars to test their children and grandchildren? Was this how the rich played?

But...

“Why is Mr. Cheng under unusual circumstances?”

Xu Dazhi explained, “Mr. Cheng has a marriage agreement with Xiao Caibai. He doesn’t want to comply with the agreement, so he made a bet with his family. If he launches his own business successfully, he would be able to decide his own marriage. If he fails, he would accept his family’s decision and marry Xiao Caibai.”

Zhuang Nainai: “...”

So, truly rich people would really carry out marriages that would aid their businesses.

As she looked at Xu Dazhi, she suddenly felt like she did not know many things.

Slightly gloomy, she lowered her head listlessly. “How do you know so much?”

Xu Dazhi paused for a moment before saying, “I also heard about these from other people.”

Thinking about how Xu Dazhi was hanging out with Su Yanbin a lot lately, Zhuang Nainai acknowledged his answer and did not question him further.
