I'll Add Points To All Things

Chapter 813: No Repayment For The Kind?

As he thought about this, Huang Zheng started to think about what Su Yang was hinting at.

He felt that with Su Yang’s status, he wouldn’t say those words to him for no reason. In fact, even if Su Yang wanted to praise him, there must be a deeper meaning behind it as well.

For example, patting himself on the shoulder twice. ‘Could it be possible that he wants me to go to his room at 2 pm to look for him?’

When he thought of this, Huang Zheng shivered. ‘Surely that’s not the case! How could I think of Mr. Su, who’s an honorable person, like this!

‘Then, other than patting my shoulder, was there anything else that he could have been hinting at?’

As he thought about this, Huang Zheng’s eyes suddenly lit up. He realized that something was not right. ‘Mr. Su just said ‘Indeed, you know me best!’

‘He used the word “indeed”...

‘Mr. Su must be hinting at something...’

On the way to send Su Yang off, Huang Zheng had been thinking about this question.

“Indeed, I know him the best...

‘Does this mean that someone did not know him previously?’

Huang Zheng felt that there was nothing wrong with his understanding, so he followed this line of thought.

‘Who didn’t understand Mr. Su before?

‘It must be the old man beside him...

‘Could he be hinting at something related to the old man beside him?’

At that thought, Huang Zheng’s eyes lit up. He felt that he had understood Su Yang’s hint!

After returning home, Huang Zheng used his identity as a member of the Jiadian Group to check on his former employees.

When Su Yang started his career, he did not have many old employees. There were only four or five of them. However, as Su Yang’s career progressed and his subsidiary companies increased, these people became the most important backbone of Jiadian Group.

Then, only one of them had left the company during the last crisis, which was Wang Dong.

After roughly locking onto the target, Huang Zheng started to investigate Wang Dong again.

In fact, Wang Dong’s resume was very simple. At the start, he was just a small employee. After he got to know Su Yang, he got on the express train and helped Su Yang set up a company in the early stages of his entrepreneurship. He then became Su Yang’s right-hand man and eventually became the Vice President of Jiadian E-Commerce Company.

Later on, when Su Yang was met with a crisis, he let down Su Yang’s trust and left Jiadian Group with a group of managers. After that, his life plummeted and he could never rise again.

But later on, when the management was scolding Su Yang severely, Wang Dong stood on Su Yang’s side out of guilt.

Later on, during the fight between Su Yang and the Wangs, the other employees betrayed Su Yang. However, only Wang Dong chose to stand on Su Yang’s side and took the initiative to inform Su Yang as well, allowing Su Yang to be prepared for this attack.

After understanding the situation, Huang Zheng secretly asked the people around Su Yang about his attitude towards Wang Dong at the time. In the end, he realized that Su Yang was very conflicted.

On one hand, Su Yang felt that Wang Dong had betrayed him and did not want to forgive him, nor was he worthy of it.

On the other hand, Su Yang felt that Wang Dong had indeed helped him in this matter and should ease the relationship between them, or even reward him.

On one side of the coin, Su Yang was unwilling to forgive him, but on the other, Su Yang would not be able to live it down if he did not forgive Wang Dong. Hence, this was why Su Yang delayed this matter and did not resolve it.

At this point, Huang Zheng felt that he finally understood Su Yang’s hint to him... ‘He wants me to help handle Wang Dong’s matter properly.’

After asking around for a few days, Huang Zheng finally managed to sort out his thoughts. He clenched his fists lightly and muttered to himself, “I’ve settled the matter of Zhongan Automobile, so I can definitely handle Wang Dong’s matter properly for Mr. Su.”

On the other end, Su Yang did not know that Huang Zheng had misunderstood his words once again.

In fact, he did not even think that just patting Huang Zheng’s shoulder twice and telling him that would cause Huang Zheng to misunderstand.

In fact, if Su Yang knew that Huang Zheng had such strong imaginative powers, he would definitely not say or do anything next time...

...

In a remote rental house in the suburbs of Shanghai, Wang Dong was opening the door for his girlfriend.

On that day, Wang Dong’s hair was messy and he was wearing a set of home clothes. He held a few clothes clips in his hands and looked like he was on leave on that day to clean the house.

Wang Dong’s girlfriend was dressed in professional attire. It was obvious that she had just gotten off work after squeezing her way in the subway for a long time.

After entering, Wang Dong’s girlfriend took off her shoes while asking him curiously, “Did you go out today?”

As Wang Dong closed the door, he said, “I didn’t go anywhere. Why do you ask?”

Wang Dong’s girlfriend looked at him strangely. She took out her phone, opened WeChat, and opened up the step counter on WeChat before she showed it to Wang Dong.

Wang Dong received the phone strangely and glanced at the information on the phone screen. He saw that on WeChat’s step counter, Wang Dong was ranked number one with 12,358 steps.

According to the distance of a normal adult’s steps, this meant that Wang Dong should have walked about eight to 10 kilometers that day. ‘No wonder she’s suspicious.’

Looking at his girlfriend’s strange gaze, Wang Dong’s face revealed a confused expression.

After a while, his expression suddenly changed. He stuffed the phone into his girlfriend’s hands, turned around, and ran to the toilet.

Arriving at the toilet, Wang Dong quickly opened up the washing machine, which had just finished cleaning a full load.

Wang Dong pulled his clothes nervously and took out a pair of pants from inside and shook them. Then, he reached into his pocket and dug before... He took out a phone from his pocket.

His girlfriend, who was attracted by Wang Dong’s actions, followed closely behind Wang Dong to the toilet. She saw him take out the phone that was still wet from his pants pocket and did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Of course, she also understood at that moment why Wang Dong had “walked” so many steps that day...

With an awkward expression as if he had caused trouble, Wang Dong took his still dripping phone and returned to his room, speechless with his girlfriend.

His girlfriend was amused by his ridiculous behavior and joked, “If you wanted to change your phone, you could’ve just told me directly. There was no need for you to remind me like this.”

Wang Dong’s face was even more awkward. He said a little embarrassedly, “I ended up taking a rare afternoon nap today, so I might have fallen into a daze during that time.”

Then he added, “I don’t want to change my phone, don’t you know what our family’s condition is? We haven’t got a gold mine to be able to change phones like this.

“I’ll take the phone to the phone shop to have it fixed in a bit. If it can’t be fixed, I’ll just buy a second-hand one.”

Wang Dong’s girlfriend glanced at him, her gaze filled with gentleness and the house became much quieter for a moment.

After a while, his girlfriend asked, “Oh right, is there any news from Mr. Su?”

Wang Dong hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. “No. Ever since I called him that time, he never contacted me again. Even when I called him that time, he only replied with an ‘ok’.”

Hearing Wang Dong’s words, the girlfriend’s face revealed a depressed expression. She hesitated for a moment and asked, “Do you regret it?”

Wang Dong asked, “Regret what?”

His girlfriend looked at him but did not say anything. But the tacit understanding between the two already made Wang Dong understand what his girlfriend was referring to.

He smiled and shook his head. “Why would I? I’m the one who let Mr. Su down, so it’s normal for him to not forgive me. Besides, I didn’t want anything in return for telling him this. I just wanted to ease the guilt in my heart.”

Although that was what he said, both of them knew that when Wang Dong had reported to Su Yang at the time, both of them still harbored a sliver of hope that Su Yang would forgive Wang Dong in light of the situation. Then, perhaps they could benefit from the incident.

Even though it might not be much, and there would only be a small reward, it could still make up for the family expenses, so that the two of them would not have to live so hard anymore.

However, when reality hit them, they knew that they were overthinking things. Some people and some things would really disappear once they were gone.

No longer harboring unrealistic fantasies, Wang Dong and his girlfriend made a meal together. Then, they started to work on their own matters in the small rented apartment.

Wang Dong was now a lamp salesman and needed to maintain a good relationship with his clients. Therefore, after preparing some information, he opened WeChat and wanted to chat with a few key clients as usual.

As soon as he opened WeChat, he realized that there were a few people who had been @-ing him in the [Resignation Team] group chat.

He opened the group chat and saw that there were dozens of messages. The messages were filled with complaints and curses. They said that Su Yang had issued a ban on these people in the group chat. Not only did he get their original company to fire them, he also made sure that all the companies in Shanghai would not recruit them at all.

This made things worse for those who were already in a bad situation. Hence, they were all cursing Su Yang and Jiadian Group.

Other than that, they did not let Wang Dong off either. The few messages that @ Wang Dong were all mocking and ridiculing him. They said that although Wang Dong had been fired, his heart was still with Su Yang and Jiadian Group, and that he was even Su Yang’s lapdog.

In fact, it was not without reason that they scolded Wang Dong. Because of the matter of having betrayed Su Yang that time, everyone in the group had readily agreed to the matter and received their payment in the meantime, with only Wang Dong rejecting the deal.

At that time, someone said that Wang Dong was a fool.

In the end, Su Yang started to issue a ban, and everyone’s situation took a 180-degree turn, all except for Wang Dong.

At the time, they even suspected that Wang Dong had betrayed them to save himself.

After all, when the crowd falls, they would blame the ones who were safe. In the situation where everyone in the group was banned, and only Wang Dong was spared, he became an anomaly and was attacked by everyone.

‘Wang Dong, even if you hug Su Yang’s thigh now, what good would it do you? Is Su Yang willing to accept you again? What benefits can you possibly get?’

‘Is it really that nice of a feeling to rat on others? Are you able to receive any money for it? Whatever happened to us, at least we received 100,000 yuan. What about you, Wang Dong?’

‘Mr. Wang might have already received over a million yuan very early on, so we mustn’t say that about him.’

‘That’s right. The Wangs are already so generous. Su Yang shouldn’t be petty, right? Mr. Wang?’

All in all, the messages were filled with scorn and sarcasm, making Wang Dong involuntarily feel a little angry when he saw it.

However, he really had no way to refute them. After all, during this ordeal, those who betrayed Su Yang had at least a few hundred thousand yuan or 200 thousand yuan in profits, while only Wang Dong came out with nothing, not even a single “thank you”. Instead, he only received an “ok” as his reply.

Although he did not plan to receive any rewards, nor did he expect for Su Yang to thank him, Wang Dong still felt a little bitter when he was exposed.

Therefore, he could only do what he had been doing for the past few days. He kept consoling himself that he was only repaying his debt and asking for a peace of mind. He did not want to think too much. After all, he had let Mr. Su down.

Just as he was thinking that, there was a knock on the door.

Wang Dong’s girlfriend glanced at Wang Dong curiously and then asked him softly, “A friend of yours?” Wang Dong shook his head. “No, my friend didn’t say that he was coming to our house as a guest.” He thought for a while and then said that it should be the landlord.

Hearing Wang Dong saying this, his girlfriend nodded in realization and then said softly, “We haven’t paid the rent for this quarter yet.”

Wang Dong’s face revealed an expression of sudden realization. Then, he also said softly, “That seems to be true. No wonder the landlord is here to rush us.” As he spoke, he hurriedly got up to open the door. When he went to open the door, Wang Dong heard his girlfriend mutter a few words softly. “Hmm... When will we have our own house in Shanghai?”

Wang Dong smiled bitterly in his heart. If it was in the past when he was working with Su Yang, there was still a little hope. But now, the two of them were merely office workers. With the increasingly high housing prices in Shanghai, even if they did not eat or drink, they would probably not be able to buy a house in their lifetime.

‘Hmm, all of this has happened because I’ve made the wrong choice. There’s no one for me to blame except for myself. I can only blame myself for not being clear-headed and choosing the wrong path, and it’s too late for regrets now.’

With this thought in mind, he opened the door. The landlord outside the door was not the landlord Wang Dong had expected. Instead, it was an unfamiliar man. That man had a square face, wore a suit, and looked very imposing. When he saw Wang Dong who opened the door, his gaze was aggressive as he sized him up. Then, he asked, “Are you Wang Dong?”

Although Wang Dong did not know who the man in front of him was, seeing that he could call out his name, it was probably someone who came to find him. Hence, he nodded and then asked, “You are?”

The man in the suit took the initiative to extend his hand. “Hello, I’m Huang Zheng, CEO of Ju Duoduo.”

When he heard that the person at the door was the CEO of Juduoduo, Wang Dong was shocked in his heart. Then, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to shake Huang Zheng’s hand. “Hello... Hello, Mr. Huang. I’m a user of your app. May I know why you’re looking for me?”

Huang Zheng looked at the blind movement and then asked if he was going to invite him in for a seat. Wang Dong patted his head. “You’re absolutely right, it’s my mistake. Please, Mr. Huang, come in.” As he spoke, Wang Dong hurriedly invited Huang Zheng into the room.

When Wang Dong’s girlfriend saw him leading a person in, she glanced at Huang Zheng curiously, who quietly walked in front of her and told her that he was the general manager of Juduoduo. Then, he whispered to his girlfriend, “Quietly find out if he’s the real deal.”
