This person, what level are they at? To be even more arrogant than me?
Zhang Ke immediately wanted to see this person.
After a moment's thought, he quickly called out to his secretary outside the door, "Alright, since they dare to say such things, then I really want to see if this person has the capital to say it."
"Understood." The secretary had followed Zhang Ke for many years and naturally understood the meaning behind his words.
Hearing the secretary's high heels retreating, Zhang Ke couldn't help but turn his head to look at Dong Hua, who was watching him from behind. "Godson, I have something to attend to. We've discussed things quite thoroughly anyway, so why don't we prepare to start tomorrow?"
As Zhang Ke had said, Dong Hua had already been discussing this plan with Zhang Ke for three to four hours, and his throat was dry. All the problems he could think of had been addressed. With this in mind, Dong Hua nodded slightly, exuding confidence but not blind optimism, "Godfather, I'll come again tomorrow then."
"Mm!"
Noticing Zhang Ke's nod of agreement, Dong Hua tidied up his things and quickly left the office.
A minute after Dong Hua left, the secretary led someone in from outside.
"Director Zhang, it's him."
Dismissing the secretary, Zhang Ke lowered his head and looked up disdainfully at the approaching footsteps of the person before him.
"To say such things, they don't seem like much."
As he looked, he muttered softly. However, the moment Zhang Ke's gaze landed on the person's face, he felt as if he had been struck by an extremely powerful, cold current, and his expression froze.
"What? It's you?"
Zhang Ke never expected that this person, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, would visit him today.
His relationship with Zhang Yun was not just "good."
Back when he was still unknown, Zhang Yun had helped him. Otherwise, he might have lost the courage to continue living, and without his life, how could he have achieved everything he had later through his own efforts and luck?
Zhang Ke's expression changed drastically. "I was wondering who it was, but it's you, old friend. Since you're here, don't leave. It's almost time anyway, let's have a meal together. We haven't eaten together in a long time. Someone, bring some tea!"
As Zhang Ke spoke, he busied himself with politely inviting Zhang Yun to sit on a rustic sofa not far away.
"You're too kind, too kind, Director Zhang is flattering me!"
"What is this?" Zhang Ke chuckled at his words.
His benefactor had come to visit, and he should have been completely open. However, he couldn't do that at this moment.
The reason for this was that Zhang Yun was currently at Taitung Group, and Taitung Group served the Lin family.
Not too early, not too late, but precisely at this time.
He couldn't help but suspect that this person was sent by the Lin family as a spy or an infiltrator to get inside.
As a result, although Zhang Ke's expression remained unchanged, he subtly probed for information both openly and covertly.
"Brother Zhang Yun, what brings you here today? What made you decide to visit?"
Hearing Zhang Ke's words, Zhang Yun immediately began to proceed step-by-step according to Lu Feng's instructions.
"What else? I'm just taking money and doing things for people. Who can I blame when I can't leave Taitung right now? To be honest, Director Lu's intention is that since Director Zhang has agreed to help the Lin family, he asked me, an old acquaintance, to help facilitate it."
Zhang Ke instantly understood the man's purpose.
"So, it was Director Lu Feng who sent you here?"
Seeing the person before him nod silently, Zhang Ke, while still pouring tea himself, spoke at a noticeably faster pace.
"So, you're here at my place to help Director Lu Feng with something?"
Zhang Yun nodded, then quickly shook his head. "No need for help, the Lin family doesn't need any assistance right now, but who knows what will happen later. That's why this is another purpose of my visit."
As long as he didn't have to exert himself at this critical juncture, Dong Hua's entire plan could proceed without a hitch. Once the plan was perfectly executed, no one from the Lin family would ever seek his help again.
"Oh, okay, okay. Since there's nothing, let's have a good meal. After eating, I'll take you to KTV to see some new girls, they're quite good!"
Zhang Ke was now beaming with joy. At this moment, as long as he didn't let the person before him understand his intentions and plans, anything was acceptable.
Zhang Yun glanced at Zhang Ke and nodded, "Sure, after all, we haven't had a good chat in so long."
As he spoke, the secretary knocked and entered. "Director Zhang, the private room you requested has been arranged. Someone downstairs will escort you."
"Alright." Zhang Ke turned to look at Zhang Yun, "It's time, let's go."
Shortly after, the two arrived at a circular restaurant in a luxuriously decorated hotel.
Once it was just him and Zhang Ke in the restaurant, Zhang Yun couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing this, Zhang Ke's face was immediately filled with confusion.
Logically speaking, when old friends meet, even if they come with a mission, they shouldn't at least be sighing.
He immediately asked, puzzled, "Zhang Yun, what's wrong with you today?"
Zhang Yun shook his head. "It's nothing."
The more he acted like this, the more uneasy Zhang Ke felt.
What exactly was this person here to do?
If he didn't get a clear answer to this question, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep peacefully tonight.
Noticing Zhang Ke's seemingly concerned expression, Zhang Yun's lips twitched slightly, and he then explained in a low voice, "It's really nothing."
But the more he said it was nothing, the more uneasy Zhang Ke became.
After all these years, when had Zhang Yun ever been so hesitant?
This person had always been forthright and never held back.
"Alright, Brother Zhang Yun, don't try to fool me. You definitely have something on your mind. Tell me, did that brat Lu Feng force you to do something?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yun, who was sitting in his chair, felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
He never expected that Lu Feng could even predict what Zhang Yun would say.
From the restaurant to now, it was all an act, and that sigh was a crucial part of it.
He just didn't understand why someone who had only met Zhang Ke a few times could grasp Zhang Ke's thoughts so accurately.
If it weren't for Zhang Ke's excessive opportunism, even though he had helped him in his youth, Zhang Ke had ultimately only shown superficial support and offered no substantial help during his critical moments, which was why he had so easily agreed to Lu Feng's request.
However, Zhang Ke interpreted this surprise as him having seen through Zhang Yun's intentions.
"See, Brother Zhang Yun, I told you, you definitely have something on your mind today. Tell me, what is it? As long as I can help, I will."
It was the same cliché again.
Zhang Yun no longer believed Zhang Ke's words, but hearing him, he quickly regained his composure and continued his performance.
"Do you really want to know?"
To prevent this plan from being leaked or failing due to other human factors, Zhang Ke was determined to get to the bottom of it.
