Chapter 474: Every Failure Makes You Smarter
While Kong Xiyan and Luo Zhenxuan were chatting and arranging all the matters, Zhong Yanyong also finished his dinner and went back to his rest room humming a little tune. As soon as he entered the room, he took out his mobile phone and transferred a red envelope of 20 yuan to Meng Xichao.
"Ten yuan for a vegetarian meatball should be enough." Zhong Yanyong put away his phone, jumped up and made an aerial shooting gesture. After landing, he struck a pose that he thought was handsome. After smoothing his hair with his hand, Zhong Yanyong took out his phone and took a selfie.
After one-click beautification, it was sent to Kong Zhian.
【Alu calls out to Aku. 】
【?】 Kong Zhian looked at his phone with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Shouldn’t Zhong Yanyong be in Shenyin Mountain with his sister at this time?
Why was he calling himself?
"Do you think I'd look good if I dyed my hair red? Dyeing it green all the time is a bit monotonous."
[……] The corners of Kong Zhian’s mouth twitched. Is it necessary to look for him for such a matter?
Doesn’t Zhong Yanyong have any other important things to do?
Don’t you know that he has to negotiate projects worth millions every minute?
Asking such an idiotic question, wasting his time!
Kong Zhian replied with disdain, "Don't do it."
[Why? Do you think red doesn't suit my handsome face? Or do you think other colors suit me better?]
Your dad will block your card and your sister will beat you.
Zhong Yanyong's mouth twitched, and finally he sighed heavily and replied, "Okay, then I'll listen to you and not get involved."
Kong Zhian shook his head secretly and was about to put down his phone when he saw Zhong Yanyong sent him another message.
[Hey, when Brother Meng mentioned it today, I was quite moved.]
[Brother Meng? Who is Brother Meng?] Kong Zhian frowned slightly and immediately asked cautiously, [Meng Xichao?]
[Yes, it’s him. I saw him on my sister’s birthday.]
[Stay away from him, he has bad intentions.] Kong Zhian's heart skipped a beat as he thought of the pitfalls he had discovered during their collaboration.
If he had not been on guard, he might have been taken away for investigation by now.
This Meng Xichao is really cruel!
It also allowed him to see the differences among human beings.
How could someone be so wicked!
No wonder my sister has been annoyed with him since she was a child!
[I think he's pretty nice. He even gave me meatballs.] Zhong Yanyong, adhering to the idea of being grateful for someone's kindness, still said a good word for Meng Xichao.
"Whatever you want." Kong Zhian snorted coldly. He didn't bother to pay attention to Zhong Yanyong.
What does life or death have to do with him?
"You go ahead and do your thing. I'm going to go chat with the Grand Master. Don't worry, I'll speak well of him and ask him to bless you, brother!" Zhong Yanyong replied, then jumped out of the room.
He had accidentally left his coffee machine on the altar of the ancestors, which was quite rude. He didn't know how to make amends afterwards, so he could only go there frequently to burn incense and chat, hoping that the ancestors would see his sincerity and not blame him.
Kong Zhian looked at the message sent by Zhong Yanyong, clicked his tongue, and cursed inwardly, "This stupid guy."
He put the phone aside, but couldn't continue looking at the contract in front of him. Then he picked up the phone again and called Kong Xiyan.
"Hmm? It's Zhian calling." Kong Xiyan was stunned when she saw the caller ID: "Did she suffer a loss when cooperating with Meng Xichao?"
"I don't know, why don't you ask?" Luo Zhenxuan looked at her.
"Yeah." Kong Xiyan finally answered the phone: "Zhi'an? What's wrong?"
"Is everything going well at the Moon Goddess Palace?" Kong Zhian felt a lot more relieved when he heard Kong Xiyan's voice.
"It's okay." Kong Xiyan felt a little strange: "You don't seem like the type of person who would tell me this. Did something happen?"
Kong Zhian's eyes moved slightly. As expected, her sister was the one who understood him best: "Zhong Yanyong contacted me."
"What? I stopped him from snatching Luo Laosan's meatballs, and he complained to you?" Kong Xiyan raised an eyebrow: "You little brat, you dare to complain? I'll beat him up later."
"I didn't complain, but a beating is fine." Kong Zhian nodded: "He was too close to Meng Xichao. Beating him up might teach him a lesson."
"Is he too close to Meng Xichao?" Kong Xiyan turned to look at Luo Zhenxuan beside her.
The latter nodded, which was considered an affirmative answer.
"That brat..." Kong Xiyan shook her head: "Forget it, let him be."
"Sister?" Kong Zhian was a little confused.
Sister should know how much Meng Xichao has gone too far. That little fool Zhong Yanyong will only be killed if he meets Meng Xichao.
"The Zhong family's situation is rather unique." Kong Xiyan did not hide it from Kong Zhian: "The Zhong couple are optimists who have more responsibility than intelligence."
Luo Zhenxuan on the side raised his eyebrows and looked at her: Is it really okay to say that about your biological parents?
"For the Zhong family, all the bad guys in the world are in legal programs." Kong Xiyan shrugged. She said the truth: "Zhong Yongan, the eldest son of the Zhong family, is a brave and resourceful man, and his temperament is most similar to mine.
The second son of the Zhong family is a little crybaby, but he has also made a name for himself in his field.
Zhong Yanyong has two older brothers, and the Zhong family only wants him to be happy, so they raised him to be a fool.
In life, it is inevitable to step into pits. As for this Meng Xichao... just think of it as helping him fill in all the pits he has avoided before!
As a person, every failure makes you wiser. Eat it, as long as you don't die."
Kong Xiyan was quite open-minded. After all, the man was under her watch, so Zhong Yanyong would not lose his life.
As for the rest... let's talk about it later.
Hearing her sister say this, Kong Zhian could only nod and say, "Then there's nothing else to say."
"So..." Kong Xiyan raised an eyebrow. "You came to me specifically for Zhong Yanyong? Boy, how come I didn't know that you two had become so close? Huh?"
"Sister, I still have a meeting. Bye." Kong Zhian's eyes moved slightly, and she found an excuse to quickly hang up the phone.
Then he scratched his hair in annoyance. How could he know what had happened to him?
What does it have to do with him whether Zhong Yanyong lives or dies?
While Kong Zhian was feeling upset, Zhong Yanyong was respectfully placing a cup of milk tea in front of the ancestral altar. He then knelt three times and kowtowed nine times on the cushion, performing a profound ceremony according to Taoist rituals. "I apologize for any offense I caused before. I hope you will forgive me! This is the latest version, with an extra serving of Bobo. I hope the ancestral master will like it!"
After mumbling a lot, Zhong Yanyong sat on the mat and drank his cup of milk tea with a straw.
By the way, he complained: "Our mountain is a bit remote. The delivery fee for two cups of milk tea is 27 yuan. My two cups of milk tea only cost 48 yuan in total. The delivery fee is almost as much as one cup of milk tea."
Only after he finished drinking the milk tea did Zhong Yanyong leave the ancestral hall and return to the house.
That night, Kong Xiyan dreamed of her ancestor again. He was sitting beside the altar, sipping milk tea with a troubled expression: "Xiyan, your brother really doesn't treat me as an outsider.
For a cup of milk tea, more than twenty names were reported to me for my blessing.
There is one called [Ride the Old Lady Across the Road], why... why is it named like this?
Let me bless you to win in the ranking. What is ranking?
A memorial tablet? Grandma’s memorial tablet?
This is a bit rude!"
The corners of Kong Xiyan's mouth twitched and her fists stiffened. This stupid brother really deserved a beating.
