Chapter 423: An Unexpected Joy
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhen Zhu sat upright with a wooden expression, as if her soul was no longer there.
“What do you want?” she hissed after a long while.
“Niece is indeed intelligent. She knows that 1 have a request.”
Zhen Chongming laughed out loud. “In that case, I won’t beat around the bush in front of an honest person.”
His smile faded. “Back then, your father insisted on teaching your mother a lesson. I tried to stop him, but he didn’t listen. Later on, because I knew what he had done, he was always afraid of me. It was only because of the old master that he gave me a sinecure in the group. Not long ago, he actually listened to Shen Hanyu’s slanderous words, saying that I colluded with outsiders to frame the company. He used the excuse that the company suffered a huge loss and forced me to resign.”
Zhen Chongming’s expression became stern. Half of his face was hidden in the darkness, making him look a little twisted. “I remembered our old friendship and also considered the Zhen family and the corporation, so I didn’t expose this layer of the past. You also know what kind of impact it will have on your father and the family if you released this recording to the public. No matter what, Old Master Zhen has been good to me, so I didn’t want to ruin your father…”
Zhen Zhu couldn’t wait to hear it anymore and said coldly, “Just tell me, what do you want me to do?”
Tang Bochuan had already told her about Zhen Chongming’s past.
There was conclusive evidence of the losses he had caused to the group. Although these were the group’s secrets, they had never been made public.
However, she was an exception.
Shen Hanyu really wanted her to return to the company so that he could leave.
He had used the ideas and methods of cultivating the heir of the group to let Tang Bochuan comprehensively and meticulously educate her on the entire group’s business, as well as the characteristics and strengths of each senior executive.
Including the secrets that had never been made public.
Shen Hanyu had asked Tang Bochuan to tell her all of this. He wanted to tell her why Zhen Yiping had asked Zhen Chongming to retire instead of making his bad deeds public. His intention was to teach her how to use and recognize people, how to be cautious, and how to be tolerant.
It was because of this that Zhen Zhu had a deep impression of Zhen Chongming’s character.
At this moment, Zhen Chongming’s so-called “consideration for the Zhen family and the corporation” was enough to coax others, but it was not enough to deceive her.
“Actually, what I want you to do is very simple.”
After a while, he finally revealed his purpose. “There’s a folder saved in your father’s computer. The documents and forms there are all the accounts of the group’s business over the years, as well as the data of the cooperation with officials at all levels. I need you to get it and give it to me.”
Zhen Zhu frowned. “This is the company’s secret. Why do you want these?”
“Of course because it is useful.”
Zhen Chongming paused. “I want to return to Zhen Group.”
Zhen Zhu glanced at him but didn’t say anything.
“As you know, your father is not in good health now, and there is no one in charge of the company. Shen Hanyu is an outsider. Even if he is Old Lady Zhen’s grandson, his surname is still Shen, not Zhen. Moreover, Old Master Zhen had put in a lot of effort back then. He probably wouldn’t want the company to change its surname even in the afterlife.”
Zhen Chongming leaned closer to her and lowered his voice slightly. “Shen Hanyu convinced your father to let you become Xu Kejing’s subordinate. It seems like he thinks highly of you, but he’s just giving you a little benefit because he hasn’t established his footing yet. Therefore, I advise you to not be fooled by him. Zhuzhu, in my heart, you’re the Zhen family’s true heir. If 1 return to the company, I’ll definitely support you wholeheartedly and help you get your father’s position.”
Even though Zhen Zhu had just learned the truth of her mother’s death, her heart was filled with anger, hatred, and many indescribable emotions.
However, when she heard his words and saw his expression, she still wanted to laugh.
If she knew why Shen Hanyu had convinced her to return to Zhen Group, his eyes would probably pop out of their sockets.
Zhen Chongming saw the mocking smile on her face and asked suspiciously, “What are you laughing at?”
“Because your words are quite laughable.”
Zhen Zhu said, “I’m not interested in the position of heir.”
“But are you willing to be a small employee in the company forever?”

Zhen Chongming said seriously, “Don’t you want to seek justice for your dead mother? Although your mother did something wrong, she did not deserve to die.”
His voice was bewitching. “As long as you become the heir, everyone will look up to you. You can do whatever you want without having to look at anyone’s eyes.”
Zhen Zhu lowered her eyes and didn’t reply.
“Have you forgotten how your father treated you all these years?”
Zhen Chongming saw that she seemed to have been convinced and continued to strike while the iron was hot. “He once said in front of everyone that you were rotten wood that could not be carved, and that you were rotten mud that couldn’t be supported by the wall. He even said that he didn’t have a daughter like you. Your father values the company more than anything else, so if it falls into your hands one day, wouldn’t it be the best revenge for him?”
Zhen Zhu was silent for a long time. “Not just anyone can enter his office.”
“This shouldn’t be difficult for you. 1 heard that you went to his office several times to argue with him about the project. Other than a few of the company’s Senior Executives, you’re the only one who can come and go freely.”
Zhen Chongming smiled. “Besides, although your identity hasn’t been made public yet, his secretary should have known that you’re his daughter long ago. He’s in the hospital now, so you can find any reason to go in. No one will stop you.”
“That computer can’t be turned on by just anyone, right?”
She said, “I don’t know his password.”
“He used to use his wedding anniversary as a password.”
Zhen Chongming said a few numbers. “By now, he probably already changed it. However, your father doesn’t like complicated things. Knowing that, his password is likely nothing more than numbers like birthdays. You can try. If it really doesn’t work…”
He paused for a moment. “You can take out the computer and give it to me.”
“I know what to do.”
She stood up and prepared to leave.
“That’s good. However, you’d better hurry.”
Zhen Chongming reminded her worriedly, “When Shen Hanyu comes back or Zhen Yiping gets discharged, it won’t be so easy to do this.”
She nodded.
Just as she reached the door, he called her again.
“There’s something else that 1 think I have to tell you in advance.”
“I’m a businessman,” he said with a fake smile. “1 never do anything without returns. There was once a person who got some benefits from me but lied to me. Guess what happened in the end?”
Zhen Zhu pursed her lips and looked at him.
“I’m afraid I’ll scare you if I say it.”
Zhen Chongming smiled and waved his hand. “Niece, you can go now. 1’11 wait for your good news.”

Sang Qianqian helped Old Lady Zhen to fall asleep. When she returned to her room, she saw a crystal fruit plate on the coffee table, with all kinds of fresh fruits and snacks on it.
She was staying in Shen Hanyu’s old room at the Zhen family’s residence. It was rare for her to come over, so the old lady specially instructed the housekeeper to take good care of her so that she wouldn’t be neglected.
Every day after dinner, the butler would send fresh fruits and snacks to her room.
Sang Qianqian didn’t have the habit of eating at night, but for some reason, she had been craving this food for the past two days.
She had eaten quite a lot for dinner, but she still felt hungry after 9 pm.
With a thought, she stretched out her hand to feel her pulse. After a moment, she was stunned..
