C620 Let's Play a Big Game of Chess Together
"Of course I'm not as busy as Brother Zhao. " Zhuang Yichen stood up and gave Jiang Zhao a friendly punch.
Ye Er heard the two of them talking and felt nervous.
Jiang Zhao sat next to Zhuang Yichen and looked at Ye Er. He said coldly, "Why are you sitting here? Do you want to hear our conversation?"
Ye Er's heart was so excited that it almost jumped out. She immediately stood up. "Then I won't disturb you anymore. Young Master Chen, Jiang mayor, you guys take your time to chat. "
She ran away immediately.
Zhuang Yichen looked at the door of the private room. After the girl rushed out and closed the door, he held a bottle of wine and poured wine for Jiang Zhao. He said with a smile, "Brother Zhao, why are you in such a hurry? I already told you that I only wanted her to drink a cup of wine here, but you still don't believe me?"
Jiang Zhao could not tell how he was feeling. He pointed at the glass and said, "You think too much. "
Zhuang Yichen stared at the leather chair Ye Er had sat on. He did not say anything for a long time. He shook the crystal glass in his hand leisurely. The amber liquid in the glass was glittering under the dim light. After a while, he tilted his head to look at Jiang Zhao. His face was relaxed, but it could not hide the seriousness. He said slowly, "Brother Zhao, I want to play a game of chess with you. A big game of chess!"
Jiang Zhao's handsome face turned to the side. His eagle-like eyes slightly narrowed. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhuang Yichen's hooked lips. He could not help but frown.
Zhuang Yichen asked "Princess" to leave the private room. He knew that Jiang Zhao had always been conservative when speaking. He would not leave anyone to talk to. He would not casually make promises when he expressed his attitude. He only needed to get up and see if he was interested. "You know why no one dares to not touch Yun Hongwei's case. He is just a scapegoat. . . "
Jiang Zhao nodded, "Yes. Official circles are a magnetic field. It is the same with your business. There's a balance between life and death. When it comes to being a scapegoat, there is only one beginning. There was no final conclusion. Yun Hongwei had more or less his own reasons for being trapped here. He was standing in the wrong team. This magnetic field needed to be reshuffled. It's reasonable for him to be the first to be swept into the magnetic field. "
"Yeah, that makes sense" Zhuang Yichen bent down. He reached out his hand and grabbed a beautiful steel cigarette box with a dragon totem on top of the marble table. He pressed down with his finger. The lid of the box opened. There was only one cigarette inside, so he closed the box. He threw it on the table and sat straight with the crystal cup in his hand. No one dares to touch Yun Hongwei's matter. However, he doesn't know who the big boss behind the scenes is. Don't tell me Brother Zhao doesn't know either?"
Zhuang Yichen's tone had always been calm and unhurried. Whether it was him or Jiang Zhao, they were used to this kind of way of speaking. They could express their intentions, stabilize their aura, and not let others steal their true thoughts. They could leave some leeway and also test others.
When Jiang Zhao started to walk out of the elevator, his anxious mood suddenly disappeared without a trace. At this time, there was only a calm and collected calmness. He leaned forward and opened the exquisite cigarette box. He put the cigarette in his mouth and took out a lighter. "Ding!" He opened the lid. "Cha!" The orange flame wrapped in the blue flame was in front of him.
The flame was extinguished with a "Ka Cha!" sound.
The smoke coming out of his mouth was accompanied by a sigh. "Yichen, we've been brothers for fifteen years, right? Starting from when I transferred from school to Haicheng with my mother. "
A trace of warmth appeared on Zhuang Yichen's face. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly. "En. "
"There are some things that you should put down. Sometimes, in a rush for short-term gains, you might lose everything. The loss outweighs the gain. "
"Brother Zhao, do you really know the big boss behind the scenes? Is he from the provincial commissar?"
"What if I say he's the boss above?"
Zhuang Yichen shook his head and gritted his teeth. "Impossible. Zhuang Jingren can't possibly have such power. "
Jiang Zhao took another puff of his cigarette. The flame on the cigarette butt was even brighter than the light in the room. He frowned and pressed the cigarette into the heavy crystal cylinder. "Zhuang Jingren is your father after all. You are now ranked first on the Invisible Rich List. They don't even know your true strength. Isn't that enough? "
"It will never be enough if I don't see all the members of the Zhuang family die. " Zhuang Yichen said in a flat tone, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
"Yichen, your surname is also Zhuang!"
"My surname is Zhuang and my mother's!"
The topic had reached a bottleneck that they would encounter every time. Zhuang Yichen raised his head and drank the wine in his hand. There was not a single drop left. He threw the cup casually and steadily landed on the table. He only shook it a few times before it fell flat.
Zhuang Yichen casually but heavily approached the sofa. His voice was deep as he slowly said, " If I say that I want to intervene in Yun Hongwei's case, what does Brother Zhao think?"
"Have you heard of something recently?" Jiang Zhao did not answer Zhuang Yichen directly, and was even more unwilling to continue this topic.
The tacit understanding between Zhuang Yichen and Jiang Zhao was built on fifteen years of relationship. They used each other, but they were also very close.
It sounded like a contradiction, but it was also understandable, "What is it?"
"You know about the rise of a new family in Haicheng. "0
Zhuang Yichen suddenly became interested. "You mean the Xi family in the south?"
"Yes. The Haicheng that advanced in two years started with import and export trade, then hotels and real estate. This year, they are purchasing gaming software companies with potential. They are developing at a shocking speed. "
Zhuang Yichen was not surprised, he already knew, "A new family can set up a foothold in Haicheng in two years, and they can also make such a big deal out of it. It seems that they have a lot of money, or else they would also be from the Red Sect. "
Jiang Zhao shook his head. "Not really. They are from the subsidiary family, but we can't find any information about them. "
"You want me to help you investigate?"
Jiang Zhao said, "I need to know the background of these powerful families. There are some things that are not convenient for my dad to use military resources to investigate. You have always known this bottom line. The Haicheng cake must be made bigger. Only then will my political achievements be revealed. "
Zhuang Yichen laughed out loud, "You still have the face to say that I am eager for quick success and profits. We are just evenly matched. Besides, You're trying to get someone to snatch the cake from me. Why should I help you investigate? "
Jiang Zhao smiled faintly. " There's no eternal enemy. Enemies can also cooperate! Furthermore, from my point of view, you might end up eating them. You have always been so capable. "
Zhuang Yichen raised his eyebrows and said, "You're saying it so confidently. Aren't you afraid that I'll eat you one day?"
Although Jiang Zhao didn't mind, his tone was confident. "You never do things that make your stomach ache when you eat. "
Zhuang Yichen laughed out loud once again.
When Ye Er was about to get off work, she received a message from Jiang Zhao. She did not want to see him for the next few days.
Ye Er had no choice but to meet him. Whenever she saw the tough guy in the BT, she had to pretend to be a grandchild, a lady, and a pitiful girl. She did not even have a nomination for the Oscar, Golden Horse Award, Golden Chicken Award, and Golden Eagle Award. She still had to put in a lot of effort in acting.
