Chapter 1723: Chapter 640: The "Little Secret" Between Them! (Extended Chapter)

He shook his head with a bitter smile, then got into the car.

At this moment, Wu Jianguo said to him, "I don’t think you understand the situation yet!"

Wu Shang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Dad, is he... is he really with my great-aunt?"

Wu Jianguo noticed that Wu Shang’s tone was a bit off, so he said solemnly, "That’s right, but you shouldn’t see it as a disgrace; rather, you should see it as a way to get closer to him in the future."

"From now on, in private, I’ll call him uncle, and you have to call him granduncle."

"I..."

Wu Shang’s face was instantly filled with indignation, but he ultimately didn’t dare to act out in front of his dad, so he asked, "Does he really have that much power?"

Wu Jianguo nodded: "He is about to invest nearly a hundred million in our county, and do you know how much his Dongsheng Group is worth right now?"

"How much?"

"Several billion."

"Several... billion!?"

Wu Shang was dumbfounded for a while before he reacted: "Is it true? If he has that much money, shouldn’t he be the richest person in our province by now? Is he more powerful than Wang Ruocheng?"

Seeing his son still tangled, Wu Jianguo simply said, "Do you know who is in charge of their group’s real estate company?"

Wu Shang hesitated: "Who?"

"It’s Wang Ruocheng’s only son, Wang Tao."

"Is that... true?"

"You’re my son; do you think I need to lie to you?"

"Xiao Shang, the reason I’m telling you this is to make you understand not to compete with him out of pride because he is a true powerhouse. Competing with him will only get you hurt, with absolutely no benefits."

"And I’ve told you before, only by collaborating with the strong can you become stronger yourself."

"Don’t even think about surpassing him in the future and then seeking revenge."

"You have to know he’s not even twenty yet, and he’s already achieved what he has by himself. So by the time you achieve something, do you think he will still be the same?"

"You’re my only son, and I don’t want you to walk a path that is destined to cause you harm from the beginning. Can you understand your father’s intentions?"

Wu Shang knew that what his dad was telling him was heartfelt advice, and he also realized that he most likely wouldn’t be a match for Zhang Jingdong in the future.

So he paused again, then said, "Dad, don’t worry, I know what to do."

Wu Jianguo looked at him deeply, then nodded with satisfaction: "It’s good that you understand... By the way, does that Director Song have anything to do with Song Yunshan?"

Wu Shang nodded: "Yes, he’s Song Yunshan’s father."

Wu Jianguo nodded thoughtfully: "No wonder... Don’t tell Song Yunshan about him and your great-aunt."

Wu Shang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then said, "...Okay."

At this moment, in the black Land Rover in front.

Zhang Lihua said calmly, "Did you know that Director Song before?"

Zhang Jingdong’s heart tightened, but he casually said, "Yes."

"Is it because you are classmates with his daughter?"

Zhang Jingdong was immediately stunned: "How did you know?"

"Just a guess."

"Seriously? How did you guess?"

"Yesterday, you drove Song Yunshan to that noodle shop on the back street for rice noodles, and her father is with the county commerce bureau, and you were just so respectful to him, so... it was easy to guess!"

Zhang Jingdong finally understood, and he relaxed: "How did you know I drove her to eat rice noodles yesterday?"

"Our county is that small, and the car you drive is so eye-catching. Do you think it’s hard not to be noticed?"

Zhang Jingdong sighed: "True."

"When did you two get together?"

"We had a bit of a crush when we were in school, and then we accidentally met on our way back this time, so we talked a couple of times and got together."

"You’re honest enough."

"You’ve already guessed it. If I lie to you again, wouldn’t you really get mad?"

"Don’t you think I’m really mad now?"

"If you were really mad, you wouldn’t have gotten in my car just now."

"I got in your car because I was mad."

"But once you got in, you weren’t mad anymore."

"Why do you think I’m not mad? I’m very mad right now!"

Zhang Jingdong then took Zhang Lihua’s slender hand: "She’s going to college in Shanghai, in the School of Economics and Management, and her dad is with the commerce bureau. My business will soon expand to Shanghai, and I need a trustworthy agent."

"I’ve told you before, I have no siblings, nor anyone I can trust 100%, and if I want to keep growing my business, I’ll need such people... You’re a business person too, I believe you can understand this."

At this point, seeing Zhang Lihua still keeping a straight face, Zhang Jingdong continued, "The last and most crucial point is that she will never replace your position in my heart, and in the future, she will never act up in front of you."

Only then did Zhang Lihua’s expression change: "Really? Have you already told her about us?"

"Not yet, but she knows I have other women, and she’s already completely accepted that."

Zhang Lihua pursed her lips: "Besides me and her, how many other women do you have?"

"Well... okay, to be honest, six more."

"Six!? Zhang Jingdong, you... you’re even worse than Wei Xiaobao!"

Zhang Jingdong not only didn’t panic upon hearing this but also confirmed that Zhang Lihua was no longer angry: "You’re overrating Wei Xiaobao then; I’m far better than him in that aspect... Don’t you think so?"
