Chapter 739: If Zhou Jiajia Was Okay
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Sui Family? Why? Don’t tell me that you have a hatred with the Sui Family, too?” asked Sun Jie.
“That I don’t. One of my junior high school cla.s.smates is from the Sui Family. He seems to be directly related to them, too. Just now, I don’t know who in his family is getting married. They sent a motorcade of luxury cars to Song Jiang to receive the bride – really rampant and bad*ss,” said Yang Ming.
“This I know. The person who is getting married is Sui Guangheng, the son of the second child of the family. I also received the invitation here. The wedding gift was given, but no one from the Sun Family is going. Right, what’s the name of your cla.s.smate?” asked Sun Jie.
“Sui Guangqi.” Yang Ming replied.
” Oh ? I’ve heard of him before. He is the son of Sui Yuejin, the Sui Family’s future leading figure.” Sun Jie said, “It seems that your cla.s.smate isn’t simple… But how could he be your cla.s.smate? Isn’t his home in Mount Jing?”
“I am also puzzled. Why did he come to Song Jiang to attend junior high school?” Yang Ming shook his head. “Right, how do you know so much?”
” Hehe , my family now can be regarded as the first family of Donghai. Naturally, we would pay attention to the first family of the previous provincial capital.” Sun Jie said, “It isn’t about undervaluing ourselves, but our Sun Family had only come into power in recent years, unlike the Sui Family. During the first few years when the Sun Family wasn’t well established, my dad would always guard against potential compet.i.tors coming to Donghai. But now it seems that the Sui Family didn’t have any intentions to expand to Donghai.”
“Let me say this. Since this the case, you should already have detailed information about the Sui Family here, right? I want to take a look.” Yang Ming asked. This kind of jealousy caused by women was no less encountered by Yang Ming. He had suffered a hidden loss from it. Since Sui Guangqi liked Zhou Jiajia and Zhou Jiajia was now with Yang Ming, it was difficult to ensure that this kid won’t have any resentment and hatred towards him. If Sui Guangqi planned some sinister plans behind his back, he must guard against it in advance. Knowing ourselves and knowing each other can win a hundred battles.
“I don’t have much information here. Uncle San should have detailed information. If you want, I will ask him to email you later.” Sun Jie said.
When he came to Sun Jie’s office, Yang Ming closed the door and hugged her from behind. He whispered, “What do you think about us?”
The matter was solved. Yang Ming also had intentions to build a relations.h.i.+p with Sun Jie. Every time Yang Ming met Sun Jie, he was so direct, both in words and in action.
It wasn’t that Yang Ming was frivolous with Sun Jie. Maybe Yang Ming initially thought that Sun Jie wasn’t a virgin. This factor was there, but then Yang Ming discovered that Sun Jie was a lesbian… and he was her first man.
Yang Ming had never had the feeling of being unable to control the other women around Yang Ming, including Chen Mengyan who often had a small temper. Yang Ming only couldn’t figure Sun Jie out.
Yang Ming’s train of thought was normal. Yang Ming felt no confidence in pursuing Sun Jie like how he pursued Lin Zhiyun. Moreover, Sun Jie looked much more mature than Lin Zhiyun. She had no feelings toward the sweet words between those lovers.
Yang Ming was also a chauvinistic person, so in order to conceal his inability to control Sun Jie, Yang Ming could only behave frivolously to cover up his inner real thoughts.
“What’s there between us?” Sun Jie didn’t push Yang Ming away, but she didn’t lean in Yang Ming’s arms like other women. Rather, she asked in a very calm manner.
“What do you think?” Yang Ming said with a little teasing, s.h.i.+fting his head sideways to Sun Jie’s ear.
“Quit it… It’s itchy…” Sun Jie shook her head and said with dissatisfaction.
“Be my woman…” Yang Ming noticed Sun Jie acting dumb, and he had to say it.
Sun Jie didn’t open her mouth, but her body trembled a little. After a while, she sighed and said quietly, “Does it matter whether I am or not? Isn’t it good now? Also… are you sure you love me?”
“I…” Yang Ming had a good impression on Sun Jie. However, when it came to love, Yang Ming’s feeling for Sun Jie was more about being obsessed with her body, and in terms of the career, he couldn’t leave her.
“You aren’t sure about your feelings, and I’m the same… It is still too early to ask this question.” Sun Jie shook her head. “Let’s just go with the flow, okay?”
“Okay.” Yang Ming knew Sun Jie’s character really well. Knowing that her saying this already represented the possibility that the both of them could continue to develop, he didn’t have to be too forceful.
On the computer in his bedroom, Yang Ming looked at the email from Sun San about the Sui Family.
Sui Yuejin, 43 years old, born in a very poor family. His father died in his early years. There were only an old mother and one younger brother. At the age of fourteen, he began to work outside. He started as a bricklayer, building up his career step by step. He established the current Qiming Group. It could be said that he was the legend of the era, which was dazzling in the 1980s.
In the year 2000, a crisis happened in the Sui Family. The Xinhong Overpa.s.s Bridge in Haishan City’s image project collapsed. The contractor was Sui Yuejin’s Qiming Group. As for what was the issue in the middle, it wasn’t reflected in the information. For a time, many people who were involved with the Sui Family have stood up and were prepared to take the Sui Family down.
It was also at this time that Sui Guangqi attended the Red Flag Junior High School in Song Jiang. It should be because of this reason that Sui Yuejin sent his son to a different place to study. Perhaps the situation at the time was really bad, and Sui Yuejin was ready for a life-or-death struggle.
The Sui Family went through great changes so Sui Guangqi would definitely be very low-key. That was why Yang Ming didn’t see anything special about Sui Guangqi in junior high school.
Later, the matters were miraculously resolved. A designer of the overpa.s.s took the initiative to admit that there was a design flaw in the overpa.s.s at the time, but the Qiming Group couldn’t have any responsibility as the contractor.
Fortunately, the accident occurred in the middle of the night. Only a driver of a medium-sized truck was injured and it didn’t cause any deaths. Sui Yuejin directly proposed that the Qiming Group fully fund the reconstruction, and then the issue subsided.
As for whether the happenings were such a thing, it wasn’t known. However, it could be seen from other sources that Sui Yuejin was a very ardent businessman. When he was engaged in real estate, he demolished an old residential area. His demolition team caused two deaths and one injury.
Although the person in charge of the demolition team was sentenced to jail for a lifetime, Sui Yuejin pushed the responsibility away. On the other hand, he just paid for the damages. This was a relatively sensational case. There were many other cases in which people became disabled during the demolition.
If this wasn’t incited by Sui Yuejin, no one would believe it. But his men were the ones who were not lacking in anecdotes. Sui Yuejin’s business was getting bigger and bigger, and it wasn’t affected at all.
The few companies that added insults to injury that year went bankrupt because of Sui Yuejin.
Obviously, Sui Yuejin was a shady businessman who lurked between the black and white area. It was impossible to not engage with the local underworld when doing these things. Yang Ming didn’t object to the connection between the enterprise and the underworld. After all, industries without an underworld background couldn’t be built at all.
However, Sui Yuejin used those underworld connections to target the unarmed people which was what Yang Ming hated. This was a completely unscrupulous person who would do anything to achieve his goal!
Yang Ming closed the information tab. The history of this person was very similar to that of w.a.n.g Xifan. w.a.n.g Xifan just wasn’t as extreme as Sui Yuejin. However, what made Yang Ming somewhat resentful was that this guy could do so well, and his business was ten times more than w.a.n.g Xifan’s.
This kind of person was the most shameless to Yang Ming. If this guy provokes me, don’t blame me for being rude. This kind of person wasn’t worthy of a conspiracy against him. It was better for him to be killed.
In the beginning, Yang Ming and w.a.n.g Zhitao’s family were incompatible like fire and water, but w.a.n.g Xifan’s reputation in Song Jiang wasn’t so bad. Therefore, Yang Ming could patiently tackle and crumble w.a.n.g Xifan with normal means. However, this Sui Yuejin was different, and killing him directly was enforcing justice on behalf of Heaven.
Lying in bed, Yang Ming simply grabbed Zhou Jiajia’s diary. During this time, whenever Yang Ming was free, he would read several pages of Zhou Jiajia’s diary. It eased Yang Ming to understand Zhou Jiajia’s character and her inner world.
However, what Yang Ming didn’t expect was that Zhou Jiajia was actually a computer hacker! He remembered the compet.i.tion dispute when he first went to college, and unfavorable posts about him disappeared instantly. He didn’t expect Zhou Jiajia to do all this behind the scenes.
After reading this, Yang Ming couldn’t help but grin. People said that behind a successful man stood a woman, and Zhou Jiajia was just right…
When the phone rang, Yang Ming put down the diary and picked up the phone.
“President Yang, this is Zhang Dejun.” The voice of Zhang Dejun came over the phone.
“h.e.l.lo, Mr. Zhang,” said Yang Ming.
“President Yang, I’m here to apologize to you. I’m sorry. That website is a company owned by the compet.i.tor of my cla.s.smate. He really can’t speak with the person.” Zhang Dejun said apologetically.
“It doesn’t matter. There is nothing to apologize for. This isn’t your duty. You’re just here to help.” Yang Ming understood and smiled. “Anyways, I have troubled you.”
“It is good that President Yang understands… I will try to figure out something on my side…” said Zhang Dejun.
“No, this is all right.” Yang Ming wasn’t concerned about the report now. Since the plan for a counterattack had been decided, it wasn’t important whether to delete the report or not. “I have a new interview that needs your help. You should plan it for me.”
“Okay, President Yang. Just tell me when and I’ll come to look for you.” Zhang Dejun replied.
“It should be fine tonight. Wait for my call.” Yang Ming hung up the phone and looked at the diary in his hand. He thought, If Zhou Jiajia was okay now, it would be easy to delete the report on the website. But, when would she wake up?
Thinking of this, Yang Ming’s mood was a little heavy.
