Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten

Chapter 1102 - 1104: Farewell

Gong Ruini was truly hearing about this for the first time, looking surprised. It was known everywhere that Wei Zehao married the cherished daughter of the Shen Family.

"Her health isn’t great. She was raised by her grandmother since childhood and doesn’t have a close relationship with her father or stepmother."

"The so-called cherished daughter is actually her younger sister."

Wei Zehao did not hide that at first, he also saw the Shen Family as a favorable way to turn his fortunes, and marrying the eldest daughter with only a stepmother and stepfather seemed most suitable.

"Although she isn’t considered good in the eyes of the Shen family, not gentle, doesn’t sweet-talk, but I just find it comfortable."

"I don’t have to spend much time at home, it’s genuinely peaceful."

Without much love or affection spoken, yet seeing Wei Zehao so calmly describe their marital mode of interaction, Gong Ruini could sense that their marriage must be filled with various kinds of love.

"She must be very good." Gong Ruini looked at Wei Zehao at this moment and couldn’t help but recall his past. Although not as glorious as back then, he was much calmer.

But he had also become more restrained, such a person must have experienced a lot, and if one really wanted to deal with Wei Zehao at this moment, Gong Ruini felt the pressure would be immense.

"This time I thought, after all, this is Beijing, developing here could also help the Shen Family, and save my wife from feeling at a loss."

Is it really for his wife? Maybe that’s part of it, but there should also be his own reasons involved.

Wei Zehao felt a bit regretful too, "Actually, I thought when I left Beijing back then with my tail between my legs if possible, I want to return gloriously."

"If possible, I want revenge, to make those who once bullied me, trampled on me, have no good days."

Wei Zehao turned his head to stare at Zhao Xuran, "For example, you guys, I’ve also thought about how to teach you a lesson."

Oh my god, Gong Ruini was startled. Although this guy currently has no intention to act, he said it so plainly that he probably won’t find it hard when he does decide to act, preparations must be made.

"But on second thought, it was me who was at fault first, if I hadn’t made the first move, you wouldn’t have either."

Wei Zehao chuckled bitterly, "Honestly, it’s also because of your strength."

"If you hadn’t been so arrogant, you might have developed quite well by now."

"I shouldn’t have thought of myself as so capable." That fall really dealt a heavy blow to Wei Zehao, making him realize that so-called locals also have capable people.

It’s not that Wei Zehao doesn’t want revenge, but Zhao Xuran has already embarked on the path of previous life’s development that he can’t control.

Since he can’t control it himself, he might as well make amends; in the previous life he was a big shot, and in this life, he will certainly develop even better, hence a change in strategy.

Is this an apology to them? Listening to Wei Zehao talk about what he encountered since leaving Beijing and heading south, and how the previous good karma helped him rise again.

Gong Ruini was truly full of curiosity. She really didn’t understand why Wei Zehao kept talking about these things, what use was it to tell her.

Is he hoping she’ll soften and not retaliate against him? Or feel sorry for him and then collaborate with him against the Shen Family?

"I came this time to say goodbye to you guys." Wei Zehao wasn’t much of a talker.

Even though he wanted to improve his relationship with Zhao Xuran, he really felt uncomfortable inside. Back then, he was just a lad he could look down on, and now he had to look up, this stark contrast made him feel under pressure.

Goodbye? Isn’t he staying to take revenge on the Shen Family?

Although the Shen Family currently seemed powerful, stronger than Cai Zehao, isn’t it hard for this lad to take revenge on someone?

As soon as he finds the opportunity, he will definitely act, and without holding back.

"You can stay in Beijing too, you must have set something up." Zhao Xuran tried to retain him, "Don’t you want to deal with the Shen Family?"

Zhao Xuran was also puzzled; when he received the message from Wei Zehao, he thought they wanted to join forces.

How did it turn into such a reversal? If he had known Wei Zehao had such intentions, Zhao Xuran wouldn’t have been willing to drive here, not knowing the bumps along the way were hard for his wife.

"Just leave it for the Shen Family, otherwise they won’t feel at ease, and leaving this industry here can ruin the Shen Family." If they weren’t given something suitable, tantalizing enough, how would the Shen Family agree to let them go?

But they don’t know that some things appear sweet, but changing hands could turn into poison for this new puppet master.

The greedy Shen Family surely won’t end up lightly by this guy’s trap, but Gong Ruini wouldn’t feel sorry or pity for the Shen Family.

"A small family that just moved from another place into Beijing, hasn’t even gained a foothold, yet thinking of networking up the hierarchy, dreaming of soaring to the sky." Wei Zehao shook his head incessantly.

"But they don’t know that in the eyes of the upper echelons, they are nothing."

"Besides constantly paying homage with money, they also need to handle tasks assigned from above, and if anything happens, they are the first to be sold out."

"This you can remind them of." No matter how society changes, the thought process of those at the top does not differ much, Zhao Xuran couldn’t help but want to chuckle.

The Shen Family’s behavior of clinging for support is no different from Wei Zehao’s in the past, as someone who has been there, he absolutely had the credentials to speak.

Saying this to them? Wei Zehao chuckled bitterly, "I haven’t had contact with so-called upper-levels for so many years."

"My stuff has long been outdated, already obsolete, so it’s better to be honest." Recalling how he gave such good-hearted advice back then, and from the Shen family head down to the young brother-in-law still studying, they all looked at him with such ridicule and mockery.

This rendered Wei Zehao really uncomfortable inside, he really wanted to lash out, scolding them for forgetting who originally supported them to have the chance to reach Beijing.

The words lingered on his lips, but he ultimately gave up on the idea, what’s the point of saying so much, he’d just end up being scolded, yet they would seize every opportunity to gain more benefits from him.

"They have skills, meanwhile let me, the unskilled failure, settle properly."

"By the way, how are things on the Northeast border?" Wei Zehao’s trip this time was actually to inquire about the situation over there in the Northeast.

How could he know? Zhao Xuran looked puzzled, knowing that this time his trip to the Northeast was taken with the utmost care, and he hadn’t let out any word thus far.

Why would he know, Zhao Xuran was bewildered.

Gong Ruini was first surprised, but quickly calmed down, as someone from a later generation, how could she forget such a good money-making opportunity.

Wei Zehao wants to make money, wants big profits, wants to escape Shen Family’s control, developing in the Northeast was the best option.

"The Shen Family is from the south, right?"

"Yes, otherwise why would I think of going to the Northeast." Wei Zehao knew Zhao Xuran was suspicious about how he guessed it.

The reason he knows, is quite simple, anyone from the future would know these things.

But what he’s curious about is who exactly leaked the information because he had tested Zhao Xuran many times, and they were definitely not the same kind of people.

"A friend of mine saw your presence in the Northeast." Wei Zehao mentioned a name.
