Thinking of those days, Zhang Tao's expression became even colder.
Zhang Yuan's anger instantly surged to his head, thinking that he was clearly doing this on purpose. Thinking about how Zhang Tao had previously obeyed him and dared not resist, but now he had become He Zhichen's right-hand man and people had to come forward to curry favor with him, Zhang Yuan felt unbalanced.
How could an orphan be appreciated by He Zhichen? If they had not taken him in and trained him for so many years, would he have achieved what he has today?
Now, even if I ask him to do some small things, he always makes excuses and refuses. It’s really annoying to think about it.
Zhang Hongfu, with a stern face, feigned a scolding of Zhang Yuan. He then turned to Zhang Tao with a false smile on his face, "Then we won't go in. I came here today just to see you. You said you haven't been home in ages, so I had to go home and see you this time."
Zhang Tao raised his lips in a mocking arc and said lightly, "Wherever the boss is, I will be there."
Zhang Hongfu's expression was slightly awkward, but he still smiled as he said, "Well, Xiao Tao, I won't beat around the bush with you. Our Zhang family is in trouble now, and you won't just watch us go to ruin, right?"
"Besides, this company was founded by your father..." Zhang Hongfu's face was filled with grief, and he couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, it's all my fault. If I couldn't protect the foundation your father built with his life's hard work, I wouldn't be able to face my poor brother in the future..."
Originally, Zhang Hongfu wanted to impress Zhang Tao with this, but Zhang Tao's face suddenly darkened after hearing this. The coldness in his body deepened, and he said in a cold tone, "The company has nothing to do with me."
Because his father died too suddenly, he did not leave a will. He was still very young at that time, so Zhang Hongfu pretended to be nice to him and tricked him into giving him everything, and then took away the company.
He has no feelings for the company at all.
Zhang Hongfu originally knew that Zhang Tao was a heartless person, so he had never liked this child very much. However, he did not expect that he would be so cold and indifferent now. His face became very ugly.
But he couldn't just turn against her now, so he could only endure it, "How can it have nothing to do with you? After all, this is your father's hard work."
"The person who tied the bell must untie it. It's no use asking our boss for help." Zhang Tao finally gave a piece of advice and turned away.
Zhang Hongfu's brows furrowed slightly, his expression unable to hold back any longer. He knew what Zhang Tao meant, and his face instantly turned pale. Now there was only one way out.
hotel.
He Zhichen was standing by the window, holding a glass of red wine in his hand. He looked in the direction of the people standing downstairs, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
When Zhang Tao returned to the hotel, He Zhichen's voice faintly came from the doorway, "Xiao Tao, come here for a moment."
Zhang Tao didn't suspect anything and walked in directly. When he saw He Zhichen standing by the bed, he knew that he must have seen that scene just now, and guessed what the boss wanted him to talk about.
"I saw it all." He Zhichen shook the wine glass in his hand and took a sip after speaking.
Zhang Tao said frankly, lowering his head slightly, "Well, they came to me to ask for a favor, hoping to let the boss attend the Zhang family dinner."
"Tell them I'm going." A gleam of light flashed in He Zhichen's eyes, and he changed his previous cynical attitude.
Zhang Tao showed a surprised look on his face and pursed his lips. "Boss, if it's because of me, you don't have to go. I'm not familiar with them."
He Zhichen smiled and returned to his usual gentle self, "It's for your sake, so how can I not go?"
