"That's right. For the Jing family, isn't it precisely because they want to reap the benefits that they take this risk?"
They just chose the wrong target; otherwise, they wouldn't have failed.
"As for the Jing family, all I can say is that they overestimated themselves. They have no one to blame but themselves for what happened."
"That's right. The Jing family has already lost, and our family's crisis has been resolved."
So, let's just do whatever we need to do next.
As for other matters, there's no need to worry about them too much. As long as the other party isn't afraid of death, just let them come.
I've been busy for months on end, so I really need to get some rest.
“You really need to rest. You haven’t been sleeping well for the past few months. If you don’t get proper rest, your body won’t be able to take it.”
"I know, that's why I have time to waste with her!"
However, if I have time, that girl will probably have time for it too. After all, the Jing family's affairs can't be dragged on for too long.
"That's true, although the final verdict won't be out too soon."
But once this is under control, it only means that it's a done deal.
"That's right, because the evidence is conclusive. Unless they can provide evidence to prove that it wasn't the Jing family who did it."
But how could something like this possibly go wrong?
"That's true. Alright, since that's the case, then our business with the Jing family is over."
You should take a good rest now, and I'll get my retirement settled as soon as possible.
I'll go out for a walk with you then!
"Great! But will your retirement be approved so quickly?"
"Pretty much! Given my current position and age, it's time for me to make way for others. It's not appropriate for me to just sit there all the time, and it also hinders their development."
"That's true. From now on, it will be the era of young people. We should really start to step back and move to the second line. There's no need for us to continue to stick to the front line."
It would be better to step down to a secondary role and protect them.
"That's right, that's exactly the point,"
I don't want to stay in that position forever; that would be too tiring.
Although people nowadays are not very willing to admit defeat, they will continue to work as long as their health permits.
But I want to enjoy life to the fullest. In my previous life, I didn't have such an opportunity, and I've already spent a lot of time and effort on this in the first half of this life.
In the remaining years of my life, while I can still walk, I want to travel and see the world.
For the past two years, when I have free time, I've been wandering around Beijing.
Although things are different from before, there are still many beautiful scenic spots.
These predestined connections from past lives could not be fulfilled due to financial constraints.
Now that I have enough money, why can't I satisfy myself?
It's not like I'm going to squander the money everywhere. It's just about traveling and having some fun. What's wrong with that?
As for the other family members, no one will say anything.
Why should they pay for it themselves, when they don't have to pay for it themselves?
After resolving the conflict between the two companies, I rested at home for a few days. Seeing that the foundation was alright, I resumed my exploration in Beijing.
Lately, I've been going out on the streets to look for treasures, which are antiques and calligraphy.
Even if it's not necessarily an original, it doesn't stop me from having fun!
Besides, I'm not the kind of person who's easily fooled; I just want to have fun.
As for the girl from the Jing family, she would come to the house from time to time in the first few days, but she never went inside.
She always stayed outside the door. At first, everyone paid attention to her like she was a monkey, but gradually the neighbors stopped taking her seriously.
After all, it's a matter for the Jing family, and it's caused quite a stir. We all know what this person is doing at their home.
So he stopped looking for her, and eventually, after waiting at his own doorstep for several days, he stopped coming altogether.
However, after this incident, the youngest son, Hongyu, called home and learned about the situation from their conversation.
Zhao Mingcheng actually made phone calls to several children, hoping they would persuade him to help his girlfriend.
"Mom, that's what Mingcheng meant, but luckily I've been busy the past two days and haven't paid much attention to him."
Otherwise, I wouldn't know how to refuse him. Tell me, has he been too free lately, calling me every day?
I don't know if your mom is free or not, but I do know that he's really put in a lot of effort for this girlfriend.
"But it's alright, isn't it? You guys don't have time anyway, and even if you did, whether or not to help the Jing family is up to me, not you."
"Mom, I understand this principle, and so do my older brothers."
And I also told Mingcheng what I meant, but guess what he said?
"I'm not a mind reader, how would I know what he's thinking?"
"That's true, Mom. Even though Mingcheng grew up with us brothers, he's really different from my cousin Haotian."
I think his superiors have already noticed that he lost his mind over a woman.
If he doesn't correct himself in time, he might end up on the next list.
"Is it that serious?"
"Isn't it that serious? They're cracking down on ideological issues really hard now. Even if he's incredibly skilled, he'll probably have a hard time passing the test, since he can't focus his mind anymore."
"That's true. It seems he invests more in his relationships than in his work."
"That's right, otherwise why would he say that if he doesn't help him, he's not acknowledging him as a brother?"
Mom, listen to what he's saying. It's his fault for not wanting to be brothers with us because of a woman.
I really can't understand what it is about that woman that makes her so attractive.
"Don't tell me you don't know, even your mother doesn't know."
Although I've never met the Jing family's daughter in person, based on her behavior, I know she's not a good person.
Yet, it was this very girl who caused Zhao Mingcheng to lose his judgment; frankly, it's really hard to accept.
"Who can argue with that? Although my son doesn't know his thoughts, he really doesn't agree with his actions."
If she were a good girl, it wouldn't be a problem, but it's like this; isn't he just trapping himself in this mess?
“That’s right, but Hongyu, you don’t need to pay too much attention to Zhao Mingcheng’s affairs. Whether you’re brothers or not, your relationship won’t change.”
What you can change is how you interact from now on; as for the rest, don't worry about it too much.
