The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life-Chapter 1163 - 439: Apology Gift

Although He Jinglun was asking, his gaze had already locked onto Zhou Wang immediately.

Besides Secretary Ge, who was still paralyzed on the floor, as the only man sitting at the moment, Zhou Wang was quite conspicuous. When He Jinglun inquired, everyone following his shifting gaze already explained everything.

It’s quite funny to say...

The crowd was slightly shocked when He Jinglun appeared, but when he quickly rushed over and slapped He Jiang, for some reason, everyone felt it was a matter of course.

It was as if it would be abnormal if He Jinglun didn’t do so.

From Xu Qing to Director Gao, and then to Secretary Ge, the development of events formed a bizarre formula, allowing everyone to predict the current result without much thought.

"I’m Zhou Wang."

Seeing that He Jinglun indeed appeared within half an hour, Zhou Wang felt a bit emotional.

What Guo Wangshan originally told him on the phone was to wait a bit, no matter where He Jinglun was in Magic City, he would arrive within half an hour.

If not, Zhou Wang wouldn’t have to worry about the matter; he just needed to find a way to leave the scene, and it would be handled.

Zhou Wang pondered a bit as to why Guo Wangshan assumed two possible outcomes.

But from a human perspective, it wasn’t hard to guess.

Although He Jinglun relied on Guo Wangshan to rise, he has now become a force on his own. Perhaps on the surface, he still maintains respect and gratitude towards the Guo Family, but Guo Wangshan probably isn’t sure of his true thoughts.

Therefore, the 30-minute limit was not only set to help Zhou Wang solve the trouble but also to gauge He Jinglun’s attitude.

With He Jinglun’s current status and position, if he indeed arrived at the scene immediately, it would show that he still harbors some reverence, keeping the situation within control. Even if Guo Wangshan did not appear, there shouldn’t be a major problem.

But if he didn’t come...

Then perhaps the matter would escalate to another level, forcing Guo Wangshan to intervene personally.

Whether there were other intentions from Guo Wangshan involved, Zhou Wang wasn’t sure, after all, with such high-level figures, sometimes one can’t just listen to what they say.

At any rate, regardless, now that He Jinglun was here, it was undoubtedly a relatively favorable outcome, and Zhou Wang didn’t have to think too much.

"Mr. Zhou is so young, I’ve heard a bit about your grand projects in Beidou, truly astonishing, truly astonishing!"

He Jinglun’s smile became even more radiant as he walked over with big strides, slightly bending his body to align his gaze with Zhou Wang’s.

Only when He Jinglun reached him did Zhou Wang stand up with a faint smile and shake hands with He Jinglun.

"Mr. He, I’ve heard so much about your esteemed name as well..."

He was certain that even if He Jinglun had heard of him, it would be only through a rapid inquiry within the past half hour.

Otherwise, He Jiang couldn’t have been completely unaware of him.

Rising from Ming City, he had never deliberately kept a low profile, with many traces to follow. However, for those not particularly attentive, he was like a moon in the water, a flower in the mirror—most might catch a fleeting glimpse, but would not have a deep impression.

"I don’t dare, I don’t dare, what reputation do I have? Even if I do, it’s just an empty fame people laugh at!"

He Jinglun didn’t mind the age gap, directly clasping Zhou Wang’s hand with both of his, continuously shaking it with a very humble posture.

"Mr. He, being overly modest turns into insincerity, huh... Qianqian, go make some tea. Mr. He, why don’t we sit inside and chat?"

As for Zhou Wang, aside from having little expression when He Jinglun first appeared, he now became quite enthusiastic, directly inviting He Jinglun.

"With pleasure, it’s an absolute honor!"

He Jinglun laughed heartily, "I’ve been hurrying all the way, just thirsty, Mr. Zhou’s suggestion is exactly what I wished for, exactly what I wished for..."

Zhou Wang smiled inwardly, noting that despite He Jinglun only having an elementary school education, he seemed to particularly favor using idioms.

For the attitude revealed in his words, showing not an ounce of neglect, Zhou Wang reciprocated with equal laughter:

"To be honest, today’s meal was quite lackluster for me, but unexpectedly meeting Mr. He now makes it all worthwhile!"

The two, joking and conversing as if no one else was around, entered the private room.

From start to finish, no one else appeared in He Jinglun’s eyes, as if everyone else was mere air. No one dared to interrupt their conversation.

As for He Jiang, after receiving a slap from He Jinglun initially, neither Zhou Wang nor He Jinglun cast him another glance.

As Zhou Wang said.

In such high-level interactions, he didn’t even have the qualification to be regarded directly.

Until they entered the private room, Gao Xing followed inside, while Xiao Wang stood silently at the door, gently closing it, the eerie silence at the scene was finally broken.

Especially for He Jiang, who had been sitting on the ground with his face covered. It wasn’t until this moment that he started to hum softly, his eyes filled with residual fear.

In this world, he feared neither heaven nor earth, but he was scared of his father.

Because he had witnessed his father’s ruthlessness over the years, and knew that although He Jinglun hadn’t had much schooling, his ability to assess the situation was unmatched.
