Chapter 122 Admitting, Zheng Jie: Mom, in my eyes you're no different from idiots.

Mrs. Zheng sat quietly on a chair in the coffee shop, her face filled with disbelief.

She had not expected that Zheng Jie had started laying his plans so early, nor had she expected that he had single-handedly created so many leading internet enterprises.

Clearly, when he had first arrived, he had been very obedient.

Now, looking back, it was obvious he had been hiding his true self all along.

With the return of Zheng Tian, Zheng Jie had stopped hiding entirely.

Perhaps even back then, he had been anticipating this, waiting for Su Qiaoer to divorce him.

According to their agreement, once the two separated, the Zheng Family would have to provide 10% of the Zheng Group's shares as compensation.

And those 10% would have increased his own holdings to over 50%.

"How could he be so insidious?"

Mrs. Zheng spoke these words.

How naive they were.

This was the business world; people often said the business world was like a battlefield.

While that might be a bit of an exaggeration, in such a massive capital market, whoever lost would face total destruction.

After a long while, Mrs. Zheng finally stood up from the chair.

She walked toward the car not far away.

At this moment, she did not know where she wanted to go.

To the Hospital? No, she did not want to return to the Hospital right now.

She wanted to go to the Zheng Group.

Inside the Zheng Group building.

Zheng Jie was handling work when, suddenly, noisy sounds came from not far away.

He put down the pen in his hand and looked up at the door in front of him.

The next second, the door was pushed open, and Mrs. Zheng walked in aggressively, while the secretary next to her was still trying to block her.

Seeing this situation, the expression on the secretary's face was one of embarrassment.

"I'm sorry, Chairman, I really couldn't stop her."

"It's fine, you go out first."

Zheng Jie knew from the aggressive Mrs. Zheng in front of him that she had probably figured out the whole story.

"Mrs. Zheng, is there something you need by coming here at this time? Or is it that the matter you had the lawyers investigate has already yielded results?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Zheng was slightly stunned, because she had not expected that he would know about this matter.

She was truly too naive; the current Zheng Jie possessed immense power, and wanting to know about this was simply effortless.

"You actually knew about this?"

"My people are not fools.

If they did not even know about such an obvious investigation, then what would be the point of me paying them such high salaries?"

Mrs. Zheng took a deep breath.

She glared viciously at her second son.

They were supposed to be mother and son, but now they looked like mortal enemies.

To be accurate, their relationship was indeed that of mortal enemies.

"I'm asking you, is what that lawyer investigated true?

Are those internet enterprises established by you?"

"What else could it be?"

Zheng Jie stood up from his chair at this moment and stretched.

"If these companies were not established by me, then why do you think they would support me so much?

With just one word from me, they would cast their votes for me at the board meeting.

You don't think simple benefit exchange could really achieve all this, do you?

If it were that easy, Father Zheng would have probably taken back the Zheng Group long ago."

Mrs. Zheng clenched her fists.

At this moment, she understood that from the very beginning, as long as Su Qiaoer chose to divorce, Zheng Jie would have already been in an invincible position.

"Now that the company is in my hands, doesn't that prove that all your ideas have come to nothing?"

"What about that financial crisis back then?"

"I didn't expect you to have even investigated that.

It seems that lawyer is indeed quite capable.

If there's an opportunity, I can have him come work for my Legal Department.

After all, I am lacking such a competent lawyer under me.

That's right, that financial crisis was also arranged by me.

In reality, the company was quite wealthy at the time; I just deliberately pretended that it had no money.

Otherwise, how could those companies of mine invest in the Zheng Group?

If they did not invest, how could I obtain the shares?"

"In other words, you had already prepared to take the Zheng Group into your own hands a long time ago, right?"

"More or less.

I am very clear about how much you value Zheng Tian.

If it were not for him leaving, you would not have let me come from the countryside to this prosperous city.

So, to give myself some sense of security, I had no choice but to do this.

Facts have proven that my decision had no problems.

Otherwise, you would have kicked me back to the countryside like kicking away a dog."

After Zheng Jie finished speaking, he looked up at Mrs. Zheng.

"If nothing unexpected happens, you should have also found out about my dealings with the Zhou Family.

The withdrawal of loans from the Zhou Family at that time was also specifically instructed by me.

Otherwise, how could you have been so afraid?"

"If there had not been that opportunity, how could those companies of mine have openly invested in the Zheng Group?

So, from the beginning, I never took your so-called promises seriously.

And I had no intention of handing over the Zheng Group obediently.

If it were not for that damn divorce cooling-off period, which forced me to wait for a month, the Zheng Group would have been in my hands the very next day after Su Qiaoer and I filed for the divorce lawsuit."

"Then, what about Su Qiaoer..."

Mrs. Zheng suddenly realized something.

The expression on her face was one of disbelief.

In the past, they all thought that Zheng Jie had true love and feelings for Su Qiaoer, but looking at his few words, it seemed that judgment was quite wrong.

Because from beginning to end, he was looking forward to the divorce.

Suddenly, she thought of that afternoon when they, as a couple, told Zheng Jie to divorce.

At that moment, he had not hesitated at all and agreed directly.

The only thing he confirmed before agreeing was the 10% of shares.

"You don't have any feelings for Su Qiaoer at all, do you?"

"Of course, I don't have any feelings.

Do you think I would want a woman who only married me after being abandoned by someone else?

To me, a woman is not as important as the Zheng Group.

Besides, it seems unlikely that I would lack women, right?"

Zheng Jie said this so coldly and ruthlessly.

A romantic fool? How could he be a romantic fool?

If he were truly a romantic fool, he would not have had a mistress after getting married.

"Actually, I never had any thoughts about Su Qiaoer.

If she were smarter, she could have chosen to cooperate with me.

Even after we divorced, if she had not participated in this internal struggle, the Su Group would not have had any problems.

But this stupid, superstitious woman actually believed your words and announced the cancellation of a series of collaborations with our group."

"And by doing so, they left us with no foundation for cooperation.

For such an enemy, we could only exterminate them.

That is why there were the subsequent series of actions targeting the Su Group.

After such a long time, finally, someone has come to ask me about this, and I can properly explain my plan from that time."

"How about it, Mom? Is my plan perfect?

It is so perfect that even I can't believe it.

In such a short time, I have firmly controlled both groups in my own hands."

Mrs. Zheng looked at this calm second son in front of her, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Because what she had not expected was that in this matter, everyone had become a tool that he could use, and from beginning to end, they were all under his control.

Their so-called struggles at the beginning now seemed more like a joke.

"Everyone was used by you.

Do you really have no feelings at all?"

Zheng Jie crossed his legs.

In such a novel world, if he had feelings, he would be the most miserable one.

The so-called 'regret' genre only makes the female lead regret, but he would be the one suffering, not even sure if he could keep his own life.

He was not such a stupid person; how could he choose to trade his life for someone else's so-called regret?

There was no value in it, so he chose that she must be unlucky, or even die.

Only then could everything he had now be completely in his own hands.

In such a process, everyone had to be used by him, because only by using everyone would all the plans be quite smooth.

Now it seems everything is very successful.

The Zheng Group is in his hands, the Su Group has been dismantled and has now become a simple rent-collecting company.

In this process, one could actually say everyone is satisfied, only the Zheng Family and the Su Family are not.

"Aren't you afraid of letting Su Qiaoer know about these things?"

"My dear mother, that is your biggest misunderstanding.

In your eyes, Su Qiaoer is very important to me, but as I just told you, she is actually not important to me at all.

Her divorcing me was the most important thing because I needed those 10% of shares.

If she had not divorced me, I would have really needed to go to some trouble for those shares.

But now, it seems I am very grateful to her for divorcing me."

Hearing this series of words, Mrs. Zheng subconsciously took a step back.

She looked at the son in front of her, feeling only that he was exceptionally strange.

"So this is the whole story.

Everything is like this.

The moment you chose to let us divorce, the result was already destined."

"And I can also tell you..."

"From beginning to end, in my eyes, you are no different from fools.

No, to be accurate, fools are even sharper than you.

Because when I meet a fool, I will think he is a very pitiful person, and I will treat him with my gentlest attitude.

But when facing you, I only want you to leave this world as soon as possible."

If there was any sentence that could make a person completely break down, then the moment Zheng Jie said this, Mrs. Zheng had already broken down.

"By doing this, you will definitely suffer retribution.

You will have no descendants.

I tell you, this world absolutely cannot tolerate a person as insidious as you.

Even family members are plotted against to such an extent; you are not even considered human anymore."

Zheng Jie smiled after hearing this.

What he had not expected was that she was so naive.

Would such a curse really have any use?

If this were useful, then there wouldn't be so many grievances in this world.

If you were wronged and just cursing others was enough, then if the curse were successful, would you still have grievances?

"But if I had not chosen to do this, what would my ending be?

I would have gotten 10% of the Zheng Group's shares, and then they would have kicked me to a peripheral department of the Zheng Group, or perhaps they would have driven me directly back to the countryside.

Don't think that my dear brother would have let me go after knowing I got 10% of the shares.

Let me tell you, he wouldn't.

He would have tried every possible way to take those 10% of shares back."

"So I chose to do this, and it was indeed a helpless move, because I also had to use my own methods to protect my money and my future."

Zheng Jie sat back in his chairman's seat at this moment, looking at the somewhat angry woman in front of him, his face full of calmness.

"I think you can leave now.

If nothing unexpected happens, Zhou Ya will be here in a while.

I think your presence here might be a bit of a mood killer."

"Fine, you just wait for me.

You will definitely suffer retribution.

Don't think that just because you have power now, everything will go as smoothly as you think.

Heaven will take revenge on you."

Watching the back of the person leaving, the expression on Zheng Jie's face was calm.

He believed in many things: he believed in his own people, he believed in his own abilities, and he believed in those subordinates who were loyal to him.

But he did not believe in Heaven, because in this world, he was Heaven.

"I'm sorry, Boss, I didn't stop her."

At this time, the secretary walked in, with a look of panic on her face.

After all, this time it was indeed her dereliction of duty, so she came to apologize.

"It doesn't have much to do with you.

Tell the front desk to hurry up and strengthen the manpower for me.

If you see this woman again, kick her out directly."

The secretary actually breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, because since her boss said that, it meant he was not pursuing the matter.

Actually, a loyal, capable subordinate who cooperates with you very tacitly is very scarce.

If you were to fire such a person for this small matter, it would lead to having no one available around you.

Zheng Jie was not a fool, so he naturally would not do such a thing of destroying his own Great Wall.

"Alright, go down and work."

"Okay, Chairman, then call me if you have anything."

After sending her away, Zheng Jie sighed.

"Only reacting now, it's simply stupid."

At this moment, Zheng Jie thought about the series of words Mrs. Zheng just said, his face full of disdain.

Because if it were a smarter person, when those companies all supported Zheng Jie together, they would have had suspicions.

Just how much benefit was given to be able to make so many companies uniformly support one person?

But at that time, she still only thought it was a simple exchange of benefits.

But it was indeed because of her stupidity that this series of plans could be executed quite smoothly.

On the other side, when Mrs. Zheng left the headquarters of the Zheng Group, she looked back at this towering building.

In the past, this was the industry the entire Zheng Family was most proud of, but now it belonged to the second son they liked the least, and that second son had even plotted against all of them.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Zheng sighed.

She had to admit that what Zheng Jie said was without any problems; everything had already settled.

Even if they knew the whole story of everything now, what use would it be?

If it were said to be of no use, that would not be correct.

At the very least, the breakdown and disgust in these people's hearts were significantly greater.
