Chapter 35 Xia Wanqing's Nervousness: Zheng Jie, I think I'm pregnant.

After the Su Group changed its chairman, it immediately became a trending news topic.

And this person was someone Zheng Jie also knew.

It was a direct subordinate of Su Qiaoer, named Ma Fei.

A very ordinary name.

Of course, Zheng Jie's guess was indeed correct; Su Qiaoer had let Ma Fei step up to replace her as chairman. The board members didn't really care; as long as Su Qiaoer had found a scapegoat, their approval was, in the end, no different from just going through the motions.

Ma Fei sat in the chairman's office, his tone filled with helplessness as he spoke. In reality, Su Qiaoer had already been arranging this for days. Currently, Ma Fei's wife and children had already gone abroad, leaving only Ma Fei in the country. Moreover, Su Qiaoer had generously given him 50 million USD, money that... would allow his family to live a happy and comfortable life abroad.

Just at this moment, Ma Fei's phone rang.

Looking at the unfamiliar number, Ma Fei frowned tightly.

He answered the phone.

"Hello, who is this?"

"It's me, Zhang Wei."

Hearing this name, Ma Fei was somewhat shocked. Ma Fei certainly knew the name Zhang Wei; after all, this person was a direct subordinate of Zheng Jie, and in the operations targeting the Su Group, Zhang Wei's influence was everywhere. However, he hadn't expected the other party to take the initiative to call him at this time; it was too suspicious.

"General Manager Zhang, why are you calling me at this time... is there something you need?"

"Of course there is something. I have some matters I would like to discuss with you."

On the other end, Zhang Wei crossed his legs and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"What matter?"

"Wouldn't you know if we met? I heard your wife and children are both abroad."

Hearing these words, the expression on Ma Fei's face turned ugly.

"General Manager Zhang, what do you mean by that?"

"I only want the two of us to know about our meeting."

"I understand."

A threat.

The words Zhang Wei just spoke were a threat.

If this person told Su Qiaoer, his wife and children abroad would likely face trouble.

He knew Zhang Wei's capabilities. The other party was the President of the Zheng Group and a direct subordinate of Zheng Jie. The current Zheng Group was terrifyingly powerful, and the other party had far too many legitimate ways to cause trouble for his wife and children.

Thinking of this, Ma Fei took a deep breath.

"I will send you the time and place. I hope we will see each other then."

"Hmm."

He hung up the phone.

Ma Fei's face was grim.

He looked at the phone that had been hung up, his eyes filled with helplessness.

"What... is this all about?"

At seven o'clock in the evening, in a restaurant, Ma Fei met Zhang Wei. It was a private room, and only the two of them were inside.

"General Manager Zhang, you are a very busy person now. I don't know what matter requires me to come out during such a busy time?"

Ma Fei looked at Zhang Wei in front of him, his tone full of curiosity.

"Su Qiaoer turned the Su Group into what it is now, then made you step up to take the fall, gave you 50 million USD, and sent your wife and children abroad. That way, even if you end up in Prison in the future, they can still live a happy life, right?"

Zhang Wei looked at Ma Fei in front of him and said with a smile. Upon hearing this, Ma Fei was slightly stunned.

These matters... were all internal affairs. How did the other party know? And how did he know so clearly?

"You..."

"What's wrong? Is what I said incorrect?"

Ma Fei was silent for a moment.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

"Your position as chairman... will bring us some help, so... I would like to discuss a collaboration with you properly."

"I don't think I have anything I need to collaborate with you on."

"Is that so? But Ma Fei, are you only considering the 50 million right now? Don't you... want to sell yourself for a higher price? The Su Group is already on the verge of collapse. If you don't find yourself a good master at this time, I'm afraid... you will really spend the rest of your life in Prison. But if you cooperate with us, perhaps... you will have a different outcome."

Saying this, Zhang Wei picked up the water cup in front of him and took a sip.

It was a bit hot.

"Who exactly are you..."

Hearing this, the corners of Zhang Wei's mouth curled up slightly. It seemed the other party also had some ideas.

...

Meanwhile, on the other side, Su Qiaoer was with Zheng Tian.

"Su Qiaoer, don't think so much. Now that you are no longer the chairman of the Su Group, you can have a good rest."

Hearing this, Su Qiaoer looked at Zheng Tian and then nodded.

"Hmm..."

During this period, Zheng Tian's mood was really not very good. After all, Zheng Jie was riding high. It was no exaggeration to say that everyone in the circle was discussing Zheng Jie, and they would often compare Zheng Tian and Zheng Jie. Almost everyone was saying that Zheng Jie's abilities were far superior to Zheng Tian's. Although they wouldn't say it to Zheng Tian's face, Zheng Tian had heard quite a lot of these discussions behind his back.

"Sigh, a perfectly good company turned into what it is now in my hands."

"I heard the Zhengfeng Group's business has increased by tens of billions, suddenly turning from an unknown small company into a large company. Sigh."

Hearing this, Zheng Tian nodded.

"Correct."

Zheng Tian also knew that the Zhengfeng Group was Zheng Jie's company. So, hearing Su Qiaoer talk about how impressive the Zhengfeng Group was, it was as if she were praising Zheng Jie. As his younger brother whom he had always looked down upon, how could Zheng Tian accept this?

"Zheng Jie just used some schemes and calculations. Looking at it now, he's nothing special. Alright, Su Qiaoer, don't worry. Zheng Jie is currently riding high, but I don't think he will have a good end in the future, right?"

Hearing this, Su Qiaoer looked up at Zheng Tian.

After thinking for a moment, Su Qiaoer didn't say anything.

She knew that Zheng Tian looked down on Zheng Jie, but now Zheng Jie was already the Chairman of the Zheng Group and the boss of the Zhengfeng Group, which was not something Zheng Tian could currently compare with. However, thinking that the other party was her husband, Su Qiaoer didn't say much more.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Zheng Jie had just returned home.

After seeing Zheng Jie return, Xia Wanqing hurriedly stood up from the sofa.

Looking at Zheng Jie, Xia Wanqing seemed hesitant to speak.

"What's wrong?"

Zheng Jie looked at Xia Wanqing, his tone full of curiosity.

"I... Honey, I think I'm pregnant..."

After saying this, Xia Wanqing took out a pregnancy test, her face filled with nervousness.

Hearing this, Zheng Jie looked down at the pregnancy test.

Hmm, two lines.
