Chapter 320: Tempted

Zhuang Li became even more irascible when he thought of the bad times during this period. “People nowadays are all snobbish. I can’t get any good projects at all!”

In the past, all these benefits belonged to him. After all, it was popular for men to inherit the family property here. His eldest brother, Zhuang Hengyu, was obsessed with medical skills and wasn’t interested in business. He was the only remaining male in the Zhuang family. In addition, his business talent was very high. The outside world thought that he was definitely the heir of the Zhuang family. During that time, Zhuang Li was at his peak. The Zhuang Group was deeply rooted in City Z. No matter where he went, others had to be courteous to him. Those who were old enough to be his uncle had to be courteous to him. There were many things that he didn’t need to say. As long as he gave a look, someone would automatically hand over the benefits.

But now? These people were all surrounding Zhuang Yu, and all of their connections and resources were leaning towards Zhuang Yu. Business wasn’t a one-on-one fight. They still needed connections. But without these things, what would Zhuang Li do?

“Silly son, do you know what your biggest advantage over Zhuang Yu is?” Zhuang Linjiang waved at Zhuang Li mysteriously.

Zhuang Li moved closer to him, his face full of doubt. “What is it?”

“You’re a man! Do you understand?” Zhuang Linjiang’s smile grew even wider. “You’re not young anymore. It’s time for you to settle down a fiancée. A business marriage is the most common form of cooperation. At this time, can you form a marriage alliance. Can Zhuang Yu?”

Zhuang Li’s expression went blank for a moment. Could Zhuang Yu? Of course she couldn’t. At the very least, before she inherited the Zhuang Group, she couldn’t think of forming a marriage alliance with anyone! The people of City Z still had the same mindset. They believed that a daughter that was married off wouldn’t be considered family. If Zhuang Yu were to get married at this time, the old man would definitely feel uncomfortable. No one would want their lifetime’s efforts to become someone else’s. However, Zhuang Li was different. He was a man. A marriage alliance would only bring greater benefits and wouldn’t shake the foundation of the Zhuang Group.

“But…” Zhuang Li lowered his eyes. He couldn’t tell what he was thinking. “I have a girlfriend now.”

“Silly son, you are really silly. What is that girlfriend of yours? Does a small upstart like the Shen family deserve your status?” Zhuang Linjiang laughed disdainfully. He lit the cigar in his hand, then exhaled a puff of smoke. “That little girl, Shen Sisi, isn’t particularly pretty. If you really like her, just raise her as a mistress. This is very common in our circle. As for women, you can have them whenever you want, but you only have one chance to inherit the family property.”

For the first time in such a long time, Zhuang Linjiang looked like a father. He patted Zhuang Li on the shoulder and said earnestly, “Think carefully, what help can the Shen family provide you? “It’s already good enough for them not to drag you back. Find someone of equal status, and the Zhuang Group will be yours in the future! After you take over the Zhuang Group, wouldn’t it be easy for you to have Shen Sisi? If she is unwilling to follow you, you just need to use some tricks. With power and influence, it’s too easy to get a woman.”

Ambition gradually rose in Zhuang Li’s eyes. He couldn’t help but be moved by the future that Zhuang Linjiang had described. That’s right, everything he did was for the future of him and Shen Sisi. He believed that Shen Sisi could understand him. At worst… After he took over the Zhuang Group, he would divorce and be with Shen Sisi. Shen Sisi was so gentle. She would definitely understand his difficulties.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Li made up his mind. “Okay, I’ll listen to Daddy.”

“Good son!” Zhuang Linjiang laughed. “Come, I’ve already chosen the candidates for you. How about the princess of the Wei Corporation? With the support of the Wei Corporation, what does Zhuang Yu count as?”

No, it wasn’t just Zhuang Yu. In fact, if the operation was done properly, the Zhuang Group would be able to soar to the sky and trample the Wei Corporation and the Ji Corporation under their feet. When that time came, City Z wouldn’t be the so-called three-way alliance, but the Zhuang Group would have the sole power! The position of the so-called business king, the youngest business genius, would have to be replaced!

Zhuang Li’s eyes were filled with ambition. He looked at the girl’s photo displayed on Zhuang Linjiang’s phone and slowly curled his lips. Zhuang Li and his father had reached an agreement on what to do, but Shen Sisi knew nothing about it. She even threw a tantrum on the set. “How can this scene be filmed like this?! I don’t agree!”
