Can't Take My Eyes Off You

Chapter 1339: Ah Zhu’s Ambition

Lu Xingzhi had drunk a little too much that night and was a little intoxicated. Since he had to pretend

that he could not hold his liquor, he let Ah Zhu support him.

"Sister, I'm sorry. We were chatting happily and accidentally drank too much. Hurry up and take care of

your man. I'll go back to my room first." Ah Zhu helped Gu Changshu to the bed before he turned

around and explained to Gu Junhui.

Jiang Yao heard Ah Zhu's footsteps as he went downstairs. She called for the servant to bring honey

water for Gu Changshu before she went back to her room.

"Stop pretending."

Jiang Yao pushed the man on the bed. She had not even settled the score with him for being a

womanizer.

The man on the bed turned over and smiled. Then, he quickly pulled the woman bending over him into

his arms.

"Do you know who I saw tonight?" Lu Xingzhi's voice contained a hint of a smile. He was not really

going to let Jiang Yao guess, so he spoke first. "Brother Jing arrived in Shu City yesterday, but Brother

Ding did not know that." NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

So he was drinking with Brother Jing?

"Is Ah Zhu with Brother Jing?"

Jiang Yao was dumbfounded. "Ah Zhu is Brother Jing's spy?"

"Ah Zhu was part of Brother Ding's team initially, and then he decided to follow Brother Jing instead. My

wife, I remember telling you that Ah Zhu is an ambitious man. He wants to replace Brother Ding." Lu

Xingzhi patted Jiang Yao's tiny face. "Are you surprised?"

Jiang Yao nodded. Yes, she was surprised. How could she not be surprised?

Ah Zhu kept saying how good Brother Ding had been to him, how much he had helped him, how many

opportunities he gave him to make money, and how grateful he was to Brother Ding. Who would have

thought that Ah Zhu would betray him?

Jiang Yao did see how Ah Zhu respected Brother Ding.

"As the saying goes, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. Ah Zhu is still

very young. He has ambition. It's very normal." Lu Xingzhi looked at Jiang Yao's shocked expression.

"Haven't you noticed that almost everyone in the house is on good terms with Ah Zhu? The man

seemed to get along well with everyone. Even Wen Yunfang, whom he disliked, was able to put on a

good show. He didn't seem disrespectful toward her at all."

Ah Zhu was a person with good acting skills. His network was more comprehensive than Brother Ding

and Lu Xingzhi had thought. He was also a person who was good at running a business. How could

such a person be willing to stay as Brother Ding's subordinate forever?

Lu Xingzhi guessed that Ah Zhu had other plans after he entered that house. He thought that Ah Zhu

would strike out independently eventually, but he did not expect his plan was to replace Brother Ding

and become Shu City's new leader.

For that ambition, Ah Zhu decided to join Brother Jing.

"We need to deal with Ah Zhu carefully."

Lu Xingzhi touched the back of Jiang Yao's head. His palm was filled with her soft hair and her scent.

"Ah Zhu has been by Brother Ding's side for a few years. First, he gained Brother Ding's favor and

trust. Later, he climbed up the ladder alongside Brother Jing. Brother Ding still doesn't know anything

and is talking to Ah Zhu about how to pull Brother Jing down."

Ah Zhu would report Brother Ding's plans to Brother Jing; no one could imagine Brother Ding's fate.

"Today, Ah Zhu took you to see Brother Jing. Does he want you to follow Brother Jing like him?" Jiang

Yao felt that Ah Zhu was really ruthless when dealing with Brother Ding.
