Witnessing this scene, Liu Zhizhong was filled with emotions.
Indeed, in this world, even the smiling tiger has worries! Get full chapters from 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡~𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢~𝙣𝙚𝙩
Liu Zhizhong remained silent, waiting for Zheng Xitong to finish his drink before offering him a cigarette.
Zheng Xitong took the cigarette, lit it, and slowly exhaled the smoke, a bitter smile appearing on his face.
"Xiao Liu, every family has its own difficult scriptures to recite! What you said just now truly impressed and gained the approval of Third Uncle. Indeed, Third Uncle just passed away recently, and the body isn't cold yet; discussing his widow's marriage at this time seems inappropriate. However, given the special circumstances, we don't have much choice. Certainly, it also shows that you're a young man with integrity, worthy of being entrusted!"
The word 'entrust' seemed to make the matter more severe.
Liu Zhizhong straightened his back involuntarily, saying, "Third Uncle, you overestimate me! Whatever the matter, you can just direct Xiao Liu, there's no need to talk about entrustment. As long as it's within my capability, I'll go through fire and water to accomplish it."
Zheng Xitong nodded in satisfaction, smiled, flicked his cigarette ash, and said, "For this matter, you are indeed the most suitable."
"Tell me, I'm all ears!"
"Feng Xiaoyue is my daughter-in-law. Though my son has passed away, she's still half a daughter to the Zheng Family. She respects me and my wife like always, keeps our family norms well, and is very filial; she's a very decent person. Moreover, her relationship with Shishi, as sisters-in-law, is extremely harmonious. There's also a major decision she made, which we are immensely thankful for!"
Liu Zhizhong was curious, "Oh? What kind of decision?"
"Xinghai Company originally had shares belonging to her and Third Uncle. After Third Uncle passed away, legally, all shares became her property. But a few days ago, she proposed to transfer all shares to the Zheng Family, placing them under Shishi's name, or my name, or her mother-in-law's name, any would be fine. Alas… this child is truly stubborn. We initially refused, but she insisted, so we had to accept. Just this morning, the equity transfer was completed. After some consideration, my wife and I decided to let her transfer them to Shishi. Xiaoyue is a sensible child, sigh…"
Zheng Xitong sighed with deep emotion, as if what he said was true.
Inside, Liu Zhizhong was puzzled, what's the meaning of this? Could it be that Feng wants to abandon all her family assets and gain freedom?
Liu Zhizhong knew the personality of his confidante well.
In the context of this marital status, Liu Zhizhong was highly accurate in judging the business relationship.
Feng Xiaoyue was unhappy, so after her husband's death, she didn't want to be tied to the Zheng Family's interests; her actions represented a significant sacrifice, amounting to losses worth billions.
On the surface, Liu Zhizhong remarked, "Indeed, Director Feng has shown great righteousness! But transferring the assets, what could she do now? She won't be filming anymore."
Zheng Xitong replied, "She said she wants to study, to read quietly, either studying domestically or abroad. However, hehe…"
The smiling tiger's smile indeed carried bitterness.
"Things aren't as easy as she thinks. Studying is easy; Zheng Family's daughter-in-law, half a daughter, studying domestically is quite simple. But recently, a powerful family in Tiandu has come forward with a marriage proposal targeting Feng Xiaoyue. Their family's status presents considerable pressure on my Zheng Family. Not marrying Feng Xiaoyue seems impossible; it's genuinely vexing for me! So..."
As he spoke, he looked at Liu Zhizhong, his smile carrying helplessness and deep meaning.
Liu Zhizhong felt numb all over, almost quipping: Third Uncle, you want to use me as a shield?
