Gossip

Translated by Seafall (Cf411)

 

The scandal between Zheng Jue and Lin Su spread all over the sky, causing a lot of trouble for Zheng Jue, but the days had to pass. The meeting between Zheng Jue and Wen Huaan was also settled in a phone call between the two.

 

No matter how deep his mind was, Wen Huaan did a good job on the surface. Zheng Jue personally called his office, but he only received Wen Huaan after two minutes.

 

Zheng Jue listened to the gentle and loving voice on the phone, and couldn’t help sneering in his heart. Who would have thought that such a kind and loving elder would kill his entire family?

 

“…His family’s child can achieve this level. If your father is still alive, he would be relieved, but as an elder, I have to remind you that you are still young, and you can’t be in a hurry when it comes to love. I read today’s newspaper. It’s fine if you play with that little star, but you can’t really make any scandals because it won’t be good for your future development,” Wen Huaan said these words bitterly.

 

Zheng Jue could hardly hold back his laughter when he heard it. He was even taught a lesson by him.

 

“Yes, Uncle Wen, I know this too, but that woman has an old relationship with me and is not a casual partner. You will find out later,” Zheng Jue played an emotionally stunned young man very well. Since Wen Huaan wanted to test him, he should live up to his painstaking efforts.

 

Wen Huaan was silent for a while after hearing this but finally, he sighed and said, “I know you young people don’t like restraint. It seemed that I had talked too much,” He really looked like an elderly man who has worked hard to achieve his attainments. Unexpectedly, Wen Huaan’s acting is not much better.

 

Zheng Jue lowered his eyes slightly and said in a low voice, “How can I say that? I know Uncle Wen is also doing it for my own good. It’s true that I did something wrong this time. I will be careful in the future,” Even if he is acting, he must make it believable. Wen Huaan would never believe that he would contradict the Wen family’s patriarch for women, so he had to accept it when it was time to accept it.

 

Wen Huaan was really relieved to hear it, then praised him with a few more words and said, “I have time in two days, why don’t you come to Wen’s at two o’clock in the afternoon on that day? I have something to discuss with you carefully.”

 

After the previous conversation, Zheng Jue knew that Wen Huaan’s purpose this time was the real estate project that he cooperated with Zhou’s. Currently, the pre-sale of the second phase has been sold out, and the sales are very popular. Although Wen’s is not much involved in real estate, businessmen seek profit, so how could they miss this opportunity?

 

Zheng Jue naturally agreed. Wen Huaan wanted to play, so he would accompany him to the end. This time, with the Zhou family behind him, Wen Huaan didn’t dare to take him lightly if he wanted to come at him.

After dealing with Wen Huaan’s mess, Zheng Jue turned his attention to other places such as… the trouble caused by the scandal this time.

 

The scandal between Zheng Jue and Lin Su broke out this morning. Until noon of that day, the phone number in Zheng Jue’s office was almost blown up. Some TV stations called for special interviews, some partner companies called to ask about the situation, and there were others. The paparazzi who were watching the fun and didn’t think it was a big deal called to ask for a response. Susie was busy running around and even grabbed a few people from the business department to help her deal with it.

 

On the other hand, Zheng Jue looked very leisurely and only concentrated on his work in the office. Only when a few people who had to deal with him personally called, would he take a few words to deal with it, one of them was Lu Yunxing.

 

Lu Yunxing has a lot of scandals himself. He is very familiar with this kind of thing. He just made fun of Zheng Jue when he called him, and then asked if he was being plotted. In a good direction, no one will bother to ask him if he was in true love, while everyone will only naturally think that they are in a relationship between the sponsor and the star.

 

Of course, it wasn’t calculated. Zheng Jue knew very well that Lin Su was not only scheming but also very ambitious. When such a scandal broke out at this time, it would not benefit her future stardom at all as it would even ruin her future. Lin Su would not do such a stupid thing. She would only seek his own help while acting as a pure and beautiful girl. Only in this way can she maximize her interests.

 

After politely rejecting Lu Yunxing’s hinted help, Zheng Jue breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Yunxing is a stingy man, and Zheng Jue can guess what he means by helping him with his eyes closed, either by coercion to suppress the scandal or to clean up Lin Su. However, he didn’t want to do it now. Although he was a little angry when the scandal came out, it was also beneficial when he thought about it afterward.

 

First, this incident put Lin Su in front of everyone. Her image was ruined, and the future road to stardom would be difficult to walk. Probably, the achievements that she can achieve in the future would be limited. Second, he has been in Hong Kong for so long. It’s outrageous to be pure and clean. There have already been bad speculations in the newspapers. Once this incident came out, it just happened to ease the atmosphere.

 

It’s just that while he was thinking about it, Lin Su’s side did not stop. After Lu Yunxing’s call was just hung up, Lin Su’s internal line was transferred. He still couldn’t completely abandon Lin Su now.

 

Lin Su was out of breath while crying on the phone, sounding wronged and pitiful. She wanted Zheng Jue to suppress this scandal, but Zheng Jue pretended to be confused from beginning to end and comforted her in a good tone before he said, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you be wronged.”

 

After dealing with Lin Su, Zheng Jue thought that his tasks were over, but he didn’t expect that the test had only just begun.

 

This afternoon, Zheng Jue was about to get off work, when suddenly, an internal call came in. Susie’s tone was a little strange, “Mr. Zheng, it’s Young Master Han. Do you want to answer the phone call?”

 

Young Master Han? Zheng Jue’s originally chaotic mind suddenly froze. He finally realized that the Young Master Han in Susie’s mouth was Han Jin, while Susie had been waiting for a long time.

 

“Pick it up,” Zheng Jue said in a cautious tone.

 

He had not been in touch with Han Jin for a long time, so he was a little surprised when he heard his name.

 

“Okay,” Susie’s tone was getting weirder.

After a while, the phone on Zheng Jue’s desk rang. Zheng Jue frowned and pondered for a while before he finally answered the phone.

 

There was a shallow breathing sound on the other end of the phone, but no one spoke. Zheng Jue was a little embarrassed for a while, so he had to speak first, “Young Master Han, I haven’t seen you for a long time. What’s the matter?”

 

The other end was still silent, but the sound of breathing became rapid. Zheng Jue only felt his scalp tingling and suddenly remembered the conversation he had with Han Jin when he came out of Zhou Chengan’s villa that day. Originally, he wanted to seal this memory on purpose. He did the same before, but Han Jin’s weird words in the hospital that day, and the deliberate lack of contact these days made him clearly understand that Han Jin treats him differently.

 

It wasn’t until Zheng Jue was about to hang up the phone that a voice came from the other end, “I read the newspaper.”

 

“Haha, is it? It really made you laugh,” Zheng Jue felt his mouth dry, and the smile on his face was also a little stiff. Han Jin was really unpredictable.

 

“You and that little star, are for real?” Han Jin’s tone was cold and cold. Zheng Jue could almost imagine Han Jin’s expression at this time. It must be cold with a trace of disdain, even so, he didn’t want to give care at all.

 

He didn’t know why, but as long as he thought of him like this, Zheng Jue’s heart was full of fire. In his last life… he also looked at him like this in the last life. At that time, Zheng Jue was pushed into bankruptcy by the Han family, so he went to Han Jin, asking him to let him go. At that time, Han Jin looked at him like this even though he didn’t even know his name.

 

“The photos are all truly taken. Even if I wanted to say they are fake, I’m afraid Young Master Han won’t believe me,” Zheng Jue suppressed his inner thoughts and said with a light smile.

 

“If you say it’s fake, I’ll believe it.”

 

Although Han Jin’s voice was restrained, it still contained a hint of urgency. Zheng Jue couldn’t help but frown slightly.

 

“Young Master Han is joking. Lin Su is indeed my girlfriend. Although there are some inaccuracies in that report, it is true,” Han Jin wanted to know so much, so he gave him a good one too. He also wanted to see, in the heart of this young master, what he thought of him.

 

As soon as he said these words, the other side was completely dumbfounded, and after a long silence, there was a sneer again, “Mr. Zheng’s vision is still so bad, such things can also enter your eyes. If Mr. Zheng likes this type, then you must come to Lenny’s party next time. There are so many people with such characters there.”

 

Zheng Jue was a little dumbfounded for a while. He didn’t know that Han Jin could be so bitter and mean. In Zheng Jue’s eyes, it seems that Han Jin has always been a cold and arrogant existence. At this time, this look of exasperation is really rare.

 

“Young Master Han is joking, Lin Su is my girlfriend, and I would like to ask Young Master Shao to be careful about some things,” Zheng Jue became also a little angry. Although he did not treat Lin Su like that at all, Han Jin’s words really hit him in the face.

 

Han Jin listened to his extremely cold words, then his breathing became heavier and immediately hung up the phone with a bang without any intention of staying. He turned down Zheng Jue’s line in anger. Who is this person? Did he call him to make fun of himself?

Zhou Chengan looked at Han Jin, who was flushed with anger and was speechless for a while. After waiting for a moment, he said, “What’s the matter with you?”

 

As Han Jin clutched his mobile phone, his joints turned white, and his expression was terrible and ugly, “It’s okay.” The words are almost as if they are squeezed out of his teeth.

 

Zhou Chengan naturally saw that there must be something wrong with him and said, “Don’t be angry. Zheng Jue is originally a straight man. Even if you use your 18-class skills, he probably doesn’t understand the style. As for this Lin Su, I think he doesn’t like her too much. Otherwise, he won’t let the scandal fly around and be asked about it. Don’t be impulsive.”

 

Zhou Chengan’s words were really astringent. This young master would really do something on impulse. It was really ridiculous. However, now is the critical time for Zhou’s cooperation with Zheng Jue, so he must not let Han Jin really kill Zheng Jue. Even if he wants to kill him, he must first get that piece of land out first.

 

Hearing Zhou Chengan’s words, he didn’t know what Han Jin was thinking, but his expression finally softened and his red eyes also looked at Zhou Chengan a little weirdly. Although Zhou Chengan’s back was cold when he was looked at by him, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was temporarily safe.
