Song Zhizhi immediately took Zhang He to the Airport District.
The Airport District is much more spacious than the center of Jin City, but it also has 3 residential neighborhoods and 1 commercial building.
Commercial Management provides comprehensive information about the Airport District. Song Zhizhi went to the scene to get a concrete impression, so she didn’t stay long before leaving.
Returning to Commercial Management, she immediately convened a meeting with the second planning department.
Song Zhizhi assigned the tasks, “I believe you’ve all heard, James Top Group is going to settle in Jin City, and they have chosen the Airport District for the business area. We have been tasked by Commercial Management to select a precise location within this district, after which the existing residential and commercial buildings will be demolished. From the map and my personal site visit, I’ve tentatively selected this location. It has fewer residents and happens to be located near a subway station, which provides convenient transportation for good customer flow.”
As she said this, Song Zhizhi circled the geographic location on the PPT presentation. freёnovelkiss.com
“The commercial building area will cover approximately 280,000 square meters. The 3 residential neighborhoods to be demolished contain a total of around 6,000 homes divided among 32 buildings, including a commercial building which houses 32 small and large companies. We now have 20 days to determine the demolition plan and begin implementation.” Song Zhizhi was visibly serious.
Everyone listened attentively.
After Song Zhizhi explained the severity and urgency of the situation, she began to delegate tasks, “Let’s divide work. First group, gather detailed information regarding the residential buildings and commercial buildings, including the residential conditions of each household and the conditions of the companies in the commercial buildings. Commercial Management has most of the data, but there may be personnel changes and other factors, so you need to verify this data. The deadline is 3 days and early reporting is allowed. The second group, together with the cost pricing department, will calculate the cost of this demolition; the error margin should be within 8%. Same deadline of 3 days. The third group, start planning early for the resettlement of the displaced residents. You must not cause any disturbance, especially no negative press.”
“Yes.”
“If you have any questions, raise them now.” Song Zhizhi asked.
Everyone remained silent.
“Then go ahead and carry out your tasks according to the schedule. Should any issues arise, come to me directly and we’ll solve them together.”
“Yes.”
“Dismissed.”
Song Zhizhi departed.
She returned to her office and revisited her workload once again.
By the time she completed everything, work hours had already passed.
Song Zhizhi stretched lazily.
It’s time to leave work.
Sitting in Wei Ziming’s car, Song Zhizhi felt genuinely tired.
She chatted with Wei Ziming for a bit before drifting off to sleep.
Wei Ziming looked at Song Zhizhi through the rear-view mirror, driving the sedan very steadily.
They arrived at the underground parking lot of the residential area.
Wei Ziming turned to wake Song Zhizhi, but found her sleeping so peacefully.
Wei Ziming pursed his lips.
For however long, Song Zhizhi had always lingered in his mind.
In the past, whenever he struggled during training, he would think of Song Zhizhi’s tender, sweet face—thinking of the fact that he had to protect her in the future—forcing himself to work twice as hard and become very strong.
Yet as he grew older, he understood that his feelings towards Song Zhizhi were more than just sibling love. He knew the two of them could not be. She saw him as just an older brother, and he was nothing more than a chess piece for Song Shan.
He was raised by Song Shan and Aunt Lan.
He owed them everything, so he didn’t care about what role he played. He also knew that his life and death was not up to him. Therefore, he would never take the initiative to get close to Song Zhizhi. He did not have a life of his own, so how could he give Song Zhizhi a life?
Thus, he tended to keep his distance from her as much as possible.
But, unexpectedly, when he truly faced her, he still found his heart pounding uncontrollably.
Moreover, after the incident where Song Zhizhi virtually traded her life for his, his feelings for Song Zhizhi escalated.
They escalated to the point…
Where he could hardly control himself.
He strived to suppress his emotions.
He thought to himself, even if he couldn’t be her lover in this lifetime, he was determined to protect her until his death. If he were forced to choose between Song Shan and Song Zhizhi, he would unhesitatingly choose Song Zhizhi.
He turned his head back.
He dared not take another look at Song Zhizhi.
He feared that he would succumb, and that he would no longer be able to extricate himself.
He did not know how much time had passed.
Song Zhizhi moved her body a little.
She seemed to be asleep.
She must have been very tired today.
She dealt with so much today and felt the pressure.
She smiled slightly and said to Wei Ziming, “Brother Ziming, why didn’t you wake me up when we arrived?”
“I thought you looked tired so I decided to let you sleep a bit longer, I don’t have anything else to do anyway.”
“Why are you so good to me?” she said with a slight smile.
She truly felt warm inside.
Wei Ziming might not be someone who is good at expressing his feelings, but she could sense Wei Ziming’s sincerity towards her.
It’s a reassuring presence, like a brother’s.
“Aren’t you also good to me?” Wei Ziming replied.
At that moment, it seemed as if the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.
Wei Ziming seldom smiled, but he occasionally showed his emotions in front of Song Zhizhi.
Song Zhizhi opened the car door, “Of course I’m good to you. You’re my brother after all.”
Wei Ziming’s smile momentarily froze.
She then seemed quite at ease.
“Brother Ziming, drive carefully on your way home. Bye.”
“Bye.”
Wei Ziming drove away.
Song Zhizhi watched Wei Ziming’s retreating figure.
She always felt that Wei Ziming seemed quite lonely all by himself.
He didn’t actually integrate much into the family. She remembered that her mother was very good to Wei Ziming, but he still felt distant in their home. He didn’t think of himself as a true member of the Song family. She never understood why and she still doesn’t quite understand.
Song Zhizhi took the elevator home.
Her thoughts wandered.
Maybe things would get better when Wei Ziming gets married.
She really didn’t want to see him alone.
He always seemed to be alone.
The elevator arrived.
Song Zhizhi entered her home.
Ji Baijian was waiting on the living room sofa.
Seeing her return home, he asked with his pleasant, magnetic voice, “Did you work overtime?”
“Received a new project today, was busy all day, tired out,” Song Zhizhi naturally fell into Ji Baijian’s embrace.
They were always sweetly together.
“I’ll run a bath for you. Go take a shower, and I’ll warm up dinner for you.” Ji Baijian gently suggested.
“Okay,” Song Zhizhi obediently nodded.
It seemed like Ji Baijian always took care of her in life.
And Ji Baijian’s elderly habits were utterly frightening.
Sleeping, eating, and waking at set times, punctual to the point of madness.
Song Zhizhi couldn’t even use her phone before bed.
He claimed that it…radiated, affecting her brain nerves.
Song Zhizhi thought that Ji Baijian was the one being neurotic.
She followed Ji Baijian upstairs, where he ran a bath for her.
Song Zhizhi lied in the bathtub, enjoying the massage jets.
For a while.
Ji Baijian knocked on the door.
Song Zhizhi reluctantly got up and casually put on a white bathrobe.
Upon opening the bathroom door, she saw Ji Baijian shooing Tank away.
Song Zhizhi was confused, “Where are you driving it to? Let it stay in the bedroom.”
“It should understand the concept of ‘Don’t look where you shouldn’t’.”
“In the future, you can only dress like this in front of me. Not even Tank is allowed.” Ji Baijian said seriously.
How was she dressed?
All the necessary parts were covered, nothing was exposed!
This ultra-conservative man!
Ji Baijian didn’t care what Song Zhizhi was thinking, he took her to the garden for dinner.
“You haven’t eaten either?” Song Zhizhi saw Ji Baijian also picked up his chopsticks.
“Of course I have to wait for my wife.”
“My husband’s the best.” Song Zhizhi stood up and pecked Ji Baijian on the cheek.
Ji Baijian pampered her too much.
He acquiesced to her in everything and did everything for her, just as if she were his beloved daughter. His affection towards her was boundless.
At first, it was a bit overwhelming.
But she got used to it in no time.
After being kissed, Ji Baijian’s face flushed a little. He filled Song Zhizhi’s plate with food, piling it into a small mountain.
Song Zhizhi frowned, “Ji Baijian, are you trying to make me fat?”
“Your stomach is now carrying my flesh and blood, it would be best for you to eat more.” Ji Baijian stated directly.
“Who said I’m pregnant?” Song Zhizhi’s eyes widened.
She didn’t know this.
“By my calculations, you should be.” Ji Baijian was sure.
“I trust my abilities. So…” Ji Baijian ladled another bowl of soup for Song Zhizhi and said, “My lady should take care of herself and the baby during this period. Nutrition is very important at this stage. Additionally, I’ve already instructed the Ji family to prepare prenatal meals for you every day. Starting today, I’ll supervise you to eat properly.”
“…Ji Baijian, aren’t you afraid that I’m not pregnant?”
“Impossible.” Ji Baijian was very confident, “If Yin Qin can become a father, it should be fairly easy for me.”
Did your confidence come with you from the womb?!
“My lady need not have any burden, just focus on nurturing the fetus.”
Damn it, this is crazy.
But in the end.
Song Zhizhi was brainwashed by Ji Baijian.
She was brainwashed into believing that she was indeed pregnant.
She had been so careful during this period, walking on eggshells for fear of hurting the “fetus”.
Until…
Half a month later, Song Zhizhi got her period.
Who knows how rich their expressions were, how extreme their shock was while they were staring at the blood stain on her underwear.
Nobody knows who broke the awkward silence.
Anyway, the incident was left at that.
During the past half month, Song Zhizhi had indeed been extremely busy.
So busy, she didn’t have time to care about the fact that she was not pregnant.
The last countdown communication session for the project was held the night before the arrival of the CEO of James Group.
Nobody thought that the whole project would proceed so smoothly.
Indeed, human potential is limitless.
When everyone first got involved with the project, there was an initial feeling of wanting to back out, even though no one would dare voice it out in the workplace. They believed in their hearts that it was an impossible task. Yet, everything was set in stone within 20 days.
At 2 a.m.
After hearing all the work reports, Ye Wenhan couldn’t help but to clap his hands, a huge affirmation to everyone.
He said, “I didn’t expect this task to be completed so smoothly. I’m sincerely grateful to all of you for giving this project your all. The success of this project is all thanks to everyone. You guys have worked hard.”
“Mr. Ye, you have also been working very hard, always staying with us for overtime, reviewing countless project plans. Our success is completely due to your efforts,” Chu Qin spoke out.
The rest of them chipped in quickly in agreement.
Song Zhizhi seemed somewhat out of place, watching Ye Wenhan handle everyone with superficial sincerity.
After a while.
The insincere compliments in the conference room finally ended.
Ye Wenhan said, “Mr. Kiru, the CEO of James Group will arrive directly at the Commercial Management tomorrow at 4 p.m. The three managers of the planning department and General Manager Zhang will accompany us.”
“Yes.”
“It’s already very late now, everyone should go home and rest. You can come to work two hours late tomorrow, but I hope everyone will keep their phones on for 24 hours in case there are unexpected issues that need to be dealt with.”
“Yes.”
“Thank you for your hard work. Meeting adjourned.” Ye Wenhan stood up.
Qian Guanshu had been accompanying Ye Wenhan all along. He seemed somewhat subservient in Ye Wenhan’s presence, and insignificant in front of others, just like when he was with Ye Taiting, keeping his profile low.
As they left the Commercial Management building and got into the car.
Qian Guanshu’s status was completely different.
Ye Wenhan had to cater to Qian Guanshu’s mood, even if Qian Guanshu was his father, he dared not voice any objections in front of him.
The inside of the car was rather quiet.
Qian Guanshu’s phone rang.
Qian Guanshu looked at the incoming call and answered.
There was a respectful report from the other end, “Everything is ready.”
“Good.”
Qian Guanshu hung up and said to Ye Wenhan, “There’s a good show to watch tomorrow.”
Ye Wenhan smirked, “It’s about time the Song family learns their lesson.”
Qian Guanshu laughed coldly.
Fighting him, Song Shan? That was a pipe dream.
He had managed to bring down Ye Taiting, let alone a small fry like Song Shan.
“But …The profit from the James Business District project is huge, isn’t it a pity to let it slip away so easily?”
“Why should I care about the interests of others in the face of my own interests?! Wenhan, you must remember that every man for himself, or heaven will fall and earth will rend! Always consider things from your own perspective. The socalled humanitarianism and selflessness are all made up to deceive the public. What we want and what we get is the most important thing! Only the ruthless can be true men!” freёnovelkiss.com
“Yes.” Ye Wenhan quickly nodded.
His father was absolutely right.
Only the ruthless can be true men!
To achieve his goals, he must not be picky about his means!
And now, he wants Song Zhizhi to die a terrible death!
It was late when Song Zhizhi got home.
She thought Ji Baijian must have gone to bed, but surprisingly, the man with such an old-fashioned lifestyle was waiting up for her.
The first thing he did when she came home was to press on her shoulders to help her relax, he was so considerate in taking care of her.
Song Zhizhi lay in Ji Baijian’s arms after taking a shower.
Ji Baijian’s big hand was habitually laying on her belly.
Song Zhizhi felt awful.
She was still on her period?!
Ji Baijian was reminding her again.
She turned over, looking at him.
Ji Baijian was looking back at her.
“Do you really want a toddler that badly?” Song Zhizhi asked.
“Not really. It’s just that Yin Qin is about to be a dad, and I feel like I’m falling behind…”
What’s there to compare?
Song Zhizhi was speechless.
“Madam, let’s go on a vacation once we’ve finished the work,” Ji Baijian suddenly suggested.
“You can go out now?” Song Zhizhi asked.
“I’ve been resting for a month already.”
Time flies.
Ji Baijian had been feigning illness at home for quite a while.
“Okay.” Song Zhizhi nodded.
In fact, she also wanted to take a good rest.
“Good night, Madam.” Ji Baijian turned off the lamp and cuddled with Song Zhizhi as they fell asleep.
Song Zhizhi was lying quietly in his arms.
The sound of Ji Baijian’s strong heartbeat was audible in her ear.
For many nights, she had been sleeping with her head on his arm and near his heart.
This habit is probably something she won’t change for the rest of her life.
She never thought about changing it either.
Just as she had never thought that the trip she promised Ji Baijian… had never been realized.
The next day.
Song Zhizhi went to the office according to her usual work hours.
When she had things on her mind, she couldn’t sleep, so she sat in her office scrutinizing the project she was in charge of to ensure it was foolproof.
Ten minutes before four in the afternoon.
All the key people in charge of the commercial management project were seated in the meeting room on time.
At exactly four o’clock.
Mr. Kiru, the CEO of James Group, appeared in the meeting room.
A round of applause welcomed him.
The overall person in charge of one of the world’s top ten groups was standing in front of everyone, the pride and excitement in everyone’s heart indescribable.
Song Zhizhi felt the same way.
After Mr. Kiru and Ye Wenhan exchanged pleasantries.
Both sides sat down.
Ye Wenhan assigned CEO Yue Dong of Commercial Management to personally explain the preparations for the entry of James Group’s business district.
Mr. Kiru listened to the report carefully, a smile on his face indicating his satisfaction.
The report lasted an entire hour.
After Yue Dong finished his report, he retreated with utmost respect.
Ye Wenhan took the initiative to say, “Mr. Kiru, this is the material we have prepared for the entry of James Group’s business district. If you find any shortcomings, please feel free to criticize.”
“Mr. Ye, you are too humble.” Kiru seemed quite friendly, “Of all the cooperative projects I’ve been involved in, this is the one I’m most satisfied with. Our decision to choose Yanshang Country was made on short notice, originally it was not planned to be Yanshang Country, but due to a variety of objective reasons, the Board of Directors decided on Yanshang Country. When Yanshang Country was selected, there was actually a great divergence within the Group, feeling that the current economic situation in Yanshang Country was not sufficient to invest such a large sum in the construction of the world-class business planning circle. Experience has shown that some decisions cannot be made solely on surface appearances. Everything you presented to me today was utterly stunning. We only gave you 20 days, undeniably it was also the Board’s evaluation of your capabilities. If you could not produce a satisfactory plan within 20 days, the Board would decide to select another country.”
The conference room was completely quiet.
Everyone was listening to Mr. Kiru speaking in an international language.
He continued, “Only 20 days, and I couldn’t believe that you could give me such a complete plan. On the one hand, it shows that your strength has exceeded international standards, and on the other hand, it shows your sincerity towards this project.”
“We are honored to have your approval, Mr. Kiru,” said Ye Wenhan with perfect manners.
After a period of training, Ye Wenhan had significantly improved his communication skills.
“Next, there will be minor changes to the plan, not because yours isn’t good enough, but because we have unique internal requirements that need to be integrated with your plan. But rest assured that we will mainly use your excellent plan.”
“So, does that mean, Mr. Kiru, we’ve reached an agreement on this project?” Ye Wenhan asked, looking very serious.
Just when Mr. Kiru was about to nod,
His assistant suddenly received a message. He leaned over to Mr. Kiru.
The smile faded from Mr. Kiru’s face in that moment.
Everyone became a bit tense at that moment.
Song Zhizhi felt a slight jolt in her heart.
A bad premonition arose.
Her eyes moved slightly as she looked at Ye Wenhan, who seemed to have a fleeting, strange smile on his face.
Once the assistant finished reporting, he stood up and respectfully stood behind Mr. Kiru.
Mr. Kiru’s expression was serious.
He said, “I’m sorry, but we may not be able to cooperate with your country and your organization this time.”
Upon hearing this, the room was in uproar.
Ye Wenhan seemed too surprised, he said, “Why did you suddenly change your mind, Mr. Kiru?”
“Just got informed, your organization used some inhumane means to achieve the objectives during the site demolition. I’m sorry, but James Group always puts humanity first, and we cannot tolerate your organization’s brutal behavior.”
