Chapter 183 – Why is it that he always likes to speak only half a sentence. (2)
Fang JunRong was mostly joking when she said to have him add another zero. She was quite surprised that Zhang ZhiYang really agreed to that amount. Did he have more money than he knew what to do with?
Looking at Jiang DeXian standing in front of her, she pondered for a little bit and said, “Well, then you might as well accept it as a bonus.”
50 million yuan was not a small amount but with her current asset, she didn’t need to split it with Jiang DeXian. As much as Jiang DeXian didn’t care about it, but his reputation wasn’t exactly great right now. Many saw him as a boytoy for a rich woman. So this would be a good bonus for him.
“Let’s see what are his next moves,” she said.
If Zhang ZhiYang had spent so much money, he would for sure has other plans in mind.
Fang JunRong learned of Zhang ZhiYang’s intention shortly. She had originally thought that Zhang ZhiYang would make a move against Jiang DeXian but, instead, he made a move in a different direction.
Uncle Zhang called her up directly and asked if she was interested in working with Zhang ZhiYang.
Fang JunRong paused for a little and asked, “What have you heard about me?”
“I’ve heard that you have already started working with Zhang ZhiYang and that Jiang DeXian is your go-between.”
Fang JunRong chuckled, so that was what Zhang ZhiYang was trying to do. After all, Jiang DeXian had, indeed, accepted 50 million yuan. Nobody would believe that Zhang ZhiYang spent that kind of money just to get rid of a romantic rival. And, to many, the only way that Jiang DeXian would even dare to accept such an astronomical amount was because he was by Fang JunRong.
Smart people enjoyed filling in the blanks. With the filling, all of a sudden Zhang ZhiYang seemed to be much more involved with Fang JunRong than he really was. As such, that would also achieve the result of alienating her from Zhang ZhiSu’s branch.
She didn’t want to divulge too much over the phone so she decided to set up a meeting with Uncle Zhang. She had noticed before that, within the Zhangs, Uncle Zhang was on the same team as Zhang ZhiSu.
She was not surprised as all when she saw Zhang ZhiSu showing up as well. She said jokingly, “I felt that I had somewhat somehow been dragged into your family matters. I have for sure gotten the short end of the stick here.”
Zhang ZhiSu gave her a look and said, “What say we compensation you with 20% of Zhang ZhiYang’s asset when the time comes?”
Fang JunRong only just mentioned it. The fact that Zhang ZhiSu had offered her a compensation was surprising. It looked like he was already fed up by Zhang ZhiSu’s little stunts. No, that couldn’t be it. Just the little stunts along would not make him decide on such a drastic move. They belonged to the same family after all.
Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something. “He was the cause of your earlier injury?”
Zhang ZhiSu picked up his tea cup. He seemed to not care about alcohol but did gravitate toward tea a lot. Even at banquets, he would only drink tea.
A hint of tea fragrance permeated the room and it had a calming property to them.
Zhang ZhiSu said, “I did not expect that from him either.”
Zhang ZhiSu thought he had already eliminated all the spies around him but Zhang ZhiYang reacted quickly as well. Better yet, he was prepared to be caught and immediately placed the blame on someone in a side branch. In the eyes of an outsider, someone from the side branch was disgruntled with the new head of the clan and ambitiously wanted to replace him.
All of Zhang ZhiYang’s stunt had, doubtless, rubbed Zhang ZhiSu the wrong way.
“I have only recently found this out. Zhang Bi’s family had formed an alliance with him already. While Zhang Bi was treating my leg wound, he was also secretly giving me medications that would agitate me.”
Even if he was easily agitated during that period of time, he would only think that it was caused by his leg injury. Luckily, Fang JunRong did not just send him the White Jade Cream, she even sent the Detoxification Pills along with it.
