But as the saying goes, plans can never keep up with changes.
When the car slowly passed through the gate, he suddenly found that the living room of the villa, which was supposed to be empty, was actually lit.
At this time, Tracy should still be in class, the little girl Elfrida who lived in the villa before was also picked up by Francis, and Patty was driving...
Zhang Chenggong couldn't think of who would visit him at this time?
Moreover, the door lock showed no sign of being damaged at all, which meant that the other party either had a very high unlocking ability, or had a matching key.
**The banshee noticed the vigilance in his eyes through the rearview mirror, licked her lips and asked with a smile, "Do you need me to go in and deal with the threat first?"
"No, no need, I think I know who the person in the living room is." Zhang Cheng seemed to have remembered something, directly pushed the car door, and strode into the villa.
Just when he had just passed through the hall and before he had time to take off his suit jacket, a 50-[-]-year-old Asian woman suddenly stood up from the sofa and asked displeasedly, "Where have you been all this time? Now that you're back, why didn't you call me? Also, I heard you broke up with Maggie?"
"Please, Mom, can't you see that I'm tired after a busy day, so you can't wait for me to change my clothes?" Zhang Cheng complained while pretending to be playful, blinking his eyes.
Obviously, this woman is none other than his imposter mother, a typical three-generation immigrant, and also a strong woman with a net worth of more than [-] million US dollars——Zhang Zhi.
That's right!
The unlucky guy who died in an accident took his mother's surname. As for his father, he had already chosen to divorce under the pressure of his powerful wife. I'm afraid no man would bear to let his own son take his mother's surname.
Fortunately, the mother never showed a strong side to her only son, on the contrary, she doted on him to the extreme, otherwise this guy with the same name and surname would not have owned tens of millions of dollars in property at a young age.
"Stop doing this! Answer my question first!" Zhang Zhi crossed her arms and blocked the stairs leading to the master bedroom on the second floor.
Seeing that the other party didn't give him a chance to escape, Zhang Cheng only raised his hands as if to surrender: "Okay, can I answer that? First of all, I went to Brazil some time ago and talked to a friend We talked about daring to cooperate and invest, and I just came back not long ago, so I haven't had time to call you. As for Maggie, I can only say that we are not suitable, so let's talk about it and break up."
"Cooperative investment?" The domineering mother narrowed her eyes and looked up and down at her "son".
Obviously, in her impression, "Zhang Cheng" was not suitable for investment at all. Although she did not lose money for the time being after several attempts, she also did not make much money. Later, she gradually gave up developing in this field.
"It's nothing, it's about science and technology. I plan to open a biological research institute, which can provide some promising technologies and research directions." Zhang Cheng lied without blinking his glasses.
"Couldn't you have been cheated by someone? If you really had good technology, someone would have invested in it long ago. How could it be your turn?" Zhang Zhi sat on the sofa again and rolled her eyes angrily.
"No, Mom. On the contrary, his technique is really good. Please see, I just have some samples here, you can take them to the laboratory for a test." After speaking, Zhang Cheng walked to the upper left corner of the living room, from the A small, inconspicuous box was removed from the cabinet and gently placed on the table.
Although the strong mother didn't think there would be anything good in the box, she subconsciously opened the lid.
moment!
Small white flowers that had been dried came into her eyes.
"What is this? Wild flowers picked by the roadside?" Zhang Zhi curled her lips in disdain.
"Of course not. It's called Mindfulness Flower. Not only can it relax people's brains, but it can also effectively relieve fatigue, help fall asleep, and reduce depression..." Zhang Cheng took out a few flowers and threw them into it as he spoke. teapot, and pour boiling hot water into it.
About two or three minutes later, a wisp of green fragrance reverberated in the living room along with the water vapor.
Without much explanation, he directly poured a small cup for the "mother" who was sitting on the sofa, and then made a gesture of please.
The latter hesitated for a moment, and finally picked it up and took a sip cautiously.
As the hot brown liquid entered the stomach and intestines, Zhang Zhi immediately felt that every pore in her body was expanding, as if some magical power calmed the restless emotions in her mind.
It took a full 10 minutes before she drank all the drink in the cup one gulp, then raised her head and asked in a very serious tone: "Are you sure it's not an alternative drug?"
"Regarding this, you can take it back to the company's laboratory for testing. I swear that there will never be any narcotic ingredients." Zhang Cheng assured without hesitation.
In fact, in Azeroth, many mages and priests will process low-level herbs such as Ningshenhua, Silver Leaf Grass, and Golden Thorn Grass with special techniques, and make them into brewed drinks, which not only cause harm to the body, but also On the contrary, it can make the user's spirit more concentrated.
If it weren't for the lack of interest in the world of ordinary people, he could easily become a billionaire just by planting low-grade grass in a large area and making various medicines and health care products.
But his lack of interest does not mean that the titular "mother" is not interested.
As the owner of a medium-sized beauty care company, Zhang Zhi realized the huge commercial value of this humble white flower from the first sip.
In a modern society with increasing informatization, what are people most concerned about?
Undoubtedly beautiful and healthy!
Especially the upper-class elites with huge work pressure and often staying up late, many suffer from insomnia and mild depression, and can only fall asleep by taking sleeping pills every day.
If there is something that can calm the mania in their hearts, then even if it is equivalent to gold, they will buy it without thinking.
In addition, she can use this kind of thing to break the dilemma that the company can only rely on the low-end market for profit, enter the high-end consumer market in one fell swoop, and even create a well-known brand and build her own business empire...
Chapter 378 An Invitation That Can't Be Refused
Never underestimate a woman, especially an ambitious and strong woman...
After a short sleep of less than eight hours, Zhang Cheng was awakened from sleep by his titular "mother" early in the morning the next day, and he simply cleaned up his personal hygiene. Get in the car and head straight to the company's headquarters in downtown Manhattan.
In less than half an hour, he got into his "own" office listlessly.
And that strong mother impatiently took the dried Ningshen Flower and went upstairs to the laboratory for relevant tests.
It has to be said that Polman's ability to modify other people's memories is indeed quite powerful. None of the hundreds of people in the company found out that he was an impostor, and even the photos placed in the office were completely replaced.
Just as Zhang Cheng was standing in front of the window, condescendingly admiring the busy scene outside, the office door was suddenly pushed open, followed by a familiar voice.
"Good morning, sir, here is your breakfast and coffee."
I saw a beautiful woman in a professional dress putting a piece of steaming food on the table.
She is none other than Maggie, the ex-girlfriend who broke up with her not long ago.
It has to be said that Zhang Cheng's imposter was an out-and-out winner in life, not only an enviable rich third generation, but also a bastard who worked as a secretary when he had nothing to do.
Looking at the woman standing at the door with a slightly haggard face and extremely complicated emotions in her eyes, he deliberately pretended to be indifferent and responded: "Thank you, just put it there."
"Okay. Besides, the boss just asked me to inform you to go to the laboratory immediately after breakfast." Seeing that the man in front of her didn't intend to renew her old relationship, Maggie immediately forced her composure, with a completely businesslike tone.
"Understood!" Zhang Cheng nodded without thinking.
"have a good meal!"
As the last word fell, Maggie turned and left the office, and at the same time slammed the door hard, making a loud noise.
The busy employees around were obviously taken aback, but when they discovered the source of the noise, they quickly lowered their heads and pretended that they didn't see anything. What should they do?
You must know that the workplace has always been a place where you can't hide your secrets, especially the intimate relationship between the future boss and the beautiful female secretary, which has always been the subject of many people's gossip.
Especially after the news of the two breaking up, some people gloated, some felt sorry, and some thought their chance had come...
In short, in this capital world where money is paramount, the rich are the rule makers, participants and final judges of the capital game. Anyone who tries to break it will be mercilessly obliterated, even the president is no exception.
