Rebirth in officialdom and rising to the top

Chapter 33 The cause of Joey Zhong’s illness

Seeing Joey Zhong being sent away, Butler Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear:

"Fortunately, the eldest lady is fine, otherwise I don't know how to explain to Director Zhong!"

Chen Wangyang shrugged and said calmly:

"I know you love your eldest daughter very much, but she is a patient. You can't just listen to her in everything. Otherwise, even if nothing happens this time, something bigger will happen sooner or later!"

Butler Li knew that the other party was dissatisfied with him and was beating himself up. At that moment, he quickly said apologetically:

"Mr. Chen said that I will improve in the future. Thank you for this time, Mr. Chen."

Seeing that the other party was sincere, Chen Wangyang said no more and asked instead:

"Is Uncle Zhong back?"

"Director Zhong is already on the way and will arrive soon. He asked me to take you to his study to drink tea and wait for him for a while."

After saying this, Butler Li realized that he had used honorifics unknowingly when talking to the other party?

The young man in front of him, who had always behaved very calmly and calmly, was much more attractive than the peers he had seen before...

It seems quite suitable for a young lady!

Thinking of his behavior when he first met the other party, Butler Li was a little embarrassed, and at the same time he admired his boss:

Director Zhong is Director Zhong, and even the way he looks at his son-in-law is a hundred times better than the people like them today!

"Let's go then!"

Under the guidance of Butler Li, Chen Wangyang took the elevator and left the underground garage and arrived at the third floor of a villa. However, this was not his final destination.

After crossing a long glass overpass, he arrived at the main villa among the three villas located in the center of Longfor Manor, where Zhong Zihua and Zhong Joy lived.

Just as Chen Wangyang thought, Zhong Zihua's home was not decorated as luxuriously as ordinary nouveau riche homes, but instead had a touch of elegance in the atmosphere.

There were no antique vases, antique clocks, etc. Most of them were calligraphy and paintings by various domestic and foreign famous artists. The cultural and artistic atmosphere was very strong, and Chen Wangyang couldn't help but sigh.

Seeing Chen Wangyang's thoughts, Butler Li said with some pride:

"Actually, Director Zhong also collected a lot of antiques before, but he hoped that more ordinary people could enjoy these precious heritages of our ancestors, so he donated them all to the museum and kept none of them for himself!"

As he spoke, Butler Li pointed to a piece of Tang Yin's "Picture of a Solitary Duck in the Sunset Clouds":

"Including the famous calligraphy and paintings you see now, except for foreign and modern ones, they are all fakes that Mr. Zhong found someone to copy. The authentic ones have been donated!"

Chen Wangyang heard this and praised sincerely:

"Dr. Zhong is humble and caring about the world. He is truly a role model for our generation. Dr. Zhong is truly worthy of his reputation as a Confucian businessman!"

Seeing that the other party respected his boss so much, Butler Li was also greatly relieved, and looked at Chen Wangyang with a more intimate look.

Under the leadership of Butler Li, Chen Wangyang came to Zhong Zihua's study.

Looking at the study room in front of him, which was several hundred square meters and comparable to a small library, Chen Wangyang once again expressed his heartfelt admiration:

"This is the real study room. It seems that Mr. Zhong really likes reading. I will also build a study room like this in the future!"

Butler Li said in his heart, can't you just marry the eldest lady as soon as possible?

Not to mention a study room, the entire Tianxia Group and Longfor Manor will be yours sooner or later!

He thought so in his heart, but of course it was impossible for Butler Li to say that. At that moment, he just politely asked Chen Wangyang to sit on the sofa in the study, and then said goodbye and left.

Soon after the maid brought a pot of tea, Zhong Zihua, who was in a hurry, pushed the door in and apologized to Chen Wangyang profusely as soon as he entered:

"I'm sorry, Wang Yang, I came back to check on Joey first and kept you waiting for so long!"

Chen Wangyang quickly stood up and said politely:

"Uncle Zhong is so polite. I just arrived. Is Miss Zhong okay now?"

Mentioning Joey Zhong, a trace of guilt flashed in Zhong Zihua's eyes, he shook his head and sighed:

"Asleep, it should be fine. I have always owed this child a lot!"

Having said this, Zhong Zihua stepped forward, hugged Chen Wangyang affectionately, and then continued with a grateful face:

"I have heard what happened just now. Thank you Wang Yang. If there is anything wrong with Joey, I will not be able to see her mother in a hundred years!"

Chen Wangyang said with some embarrassment:

"Actually, the reason why Miss Zhong got sick has something to do with me, so this is what I should do. I cannot deserve Uncle Zhong's thank you!"

Zhong Zihua shook his head and sighed:

"Lao Li showed me the surveillance video. I can't blame you for this! It's because I was too indulgent towards her, which is why she developed her arrogant and domineering character, which makes it difficult for you Wang Yang! Alas!"

Chen Wangyang quickly consoled him:

"Uncle Zhong, please don't say that. Miss Zhong's PTSD is very serious. It's human nature for you to pamper her, but the method may be questionable."

Zhong Zihua waved his hand and motioned Chen Wangyang to sit down. After the two sat down, Zhong Zihua said with a guilty look:

"Wang Yang, what you said makes sense, but it's a pity that Tianxia Group is so big and has too many things to be busy with, and I can't take care of her too much."

Chen Wangyang poured a cup of tea for Zhong Zihua and asked calmly:

"Miss Zhong's illness should be related to the death of her aunt, right?"

Zhong Zihua was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Wang Yang, you guessed it right. Many years ago, our family of three traveled abroad, but I returned home early because of something unexpected. I originally wanted to finish my work early and go back to accompany my mother and daughter. Who knew that not long after I left, they I met a robber!"

As he spoke, Zhong Zihua’s voice trembled:

"In order to protect Joey, her mother was beaten to death by those damn robbers in front of Joey, so Joey..."

Speaking of this, Zhong Zihua couldn't help but burst into tears and couldn't talk anymore...

Chen Wangyang secretly hated that he shouldn't have asked more questions. At that moment, he quickly took out a few tissues and handed them to Zhong Zihua, comforting him:

"The deceased is gone. Uncle Zhong expresses my condolences and accepts the change!"

Zhong Zihua has a very strong ability to control his emotions. If he hadn't drank some wine today, he wouldn't have shown his true feelings like he does now.

Under Chen Wangyang's comfort, Zhong Zihua quickly recovered and said with a shy smile:

"As an uncle, I've lost my temper. Wang Yang, don't laugh at me!"

Chen Wangyang smiled and said:

"Although I can't empathize with him, I can understand Uncle Zhong's mood, but the past cannot be forgotten. What we should do is cherish the people in front of us."

Zhong Zihua smiled heartily, raised his teacup and touched it with Chen Wangyang, and then said:

"You are such a person who cherishes the people in front of you. I feel comfortable chatting with you, Wang Yang. Come on, Uncle Zhong will give you a toast with tea instead of wine!"

"Dry!"

The top-quality Dahongpao, which was supposed to be savored lightly, was instead drank down by the two of them like cows chewing peonies...
