MGAG: Chapter 20

Chen Qizhao looked at the person in front of him without any restraint. This person still looked human compared to the way he went to prison with shaggy hair covering his head.

Jiang Yuze, Chen Jianghong’s current right-hand man.

He was in his 30s this year. He entered the Chen family step by step when he was young and finally took the position of Chen Jianhong’s assistant. He might just be an assistant on the surface but Chen Jianhong let him practice many things and his position in the group wasn’t low. He was very appreciated by Chen Jianhong. If there were no accidents, he should be a leader with an unlimited future.

Such a person originally had unlimited scenery in front of him but he had long hooked up with Lin Shizhong. Later, he indirectly had a hand in the Chen Group’s bankruptcy and became the boss of a listed company. This person hid deeply and had done many things. This time, the middle level management of the Chen family had a reshuffle and several of those who resigned or were prosecuted had something to do with Jiang Yuze. Even in such a situation, this person could still pick himself clean.

This old fox did things clearly and never let the fire burn himself.

There were too many things involved when it came to Jiang Yuze.

He was Lin Shizong’s biggest card in the Chen family. Other commercial spies or internal spies were at most useless troops. As long as Jiang Yuze was still here, there would always be hidden dangers in the Chen family.

The timeline was messed up when Chen Qizhao was first reborn. Later, he was chatting to Special Assistant Xu and realized that at this time, Jiang Yuze hadn’t started acting yet and Chen Shiming’s side was still clean. The Chen Group was intricate and complicated and it was impossible for Chen Qizhao to remember so many people from his past life. However, he could clearly understand what Jiang did. One of the biggest dangers was Chen Shiming’s assistant group. In two years, Chen Jianhong would be ready to abdicate and let Chen Shiming take over. Jiang Yuze knew this and put his own people into Chen Shiming’s assistant group when he had the chance.

In the game of chess played by Lin Shizong, Jiang Yuze was the general.

“Jianhong, you aren’t working overtime today?” Zhang Yazhi was a bit surprised to see Chen Jianhong coming back. “Xiao Jiang is here too?”

Jiang Yuze said politely, “Hello Madam, I’m sorry to disturb you.”

Chen Jianhong nodded toward Jiang Yuze and asked the housekeeper to go upstairs to get some documents.

“Then why don’t you stay and eat lunch? That kid Shiming hasn’t been back for meals recently and I just asked Old Zhang to make more food,” Zhang Yazhi said enthusiastically. “Otherwise, only Xiao Zhao and I will be eating lunch.”

Chen Qizhao turned off the screen of his phone and stared at Jiang Yuze in an unabashed manner.

Jiang Yuze looked at Chen Qizhao sitting beside him before quickly withdrawing his gaze. “Thank you, Madam, but I need to go back to the company after I get the documents.”

Soon, the housekeeper brought over a documents bag and Chen Jianhong gave the things to Jiang Yuze. “He has to go back and deal with things at the company.”

Jiang Yuze nodded. He received the information and left.

It was just like a loyal and hard working subordinate. People couldn’t fault him.

Chen Jianhong noticed that Chen Qizhao’s eyes were fixed on the door and he asked, “Do you know him?”

Chen Qizhao glanced at Chen Jianhong and casually leaned back against the sofa. “I don’t know but I don’t like him.”

“Can you tell based on looks?” Zhang Yazhi smiled. “Your eyes are so picky when looking at people. How will you find a wife in the future? You can’t just look at people at first glance and say you don’t like them, right?”

“Xiao Jiang is measured in his work.” Chen Jianhong wasn’t displeased by this but instead added a few more sentences. “Don’t stay in school on days without classes. Come to the company to take a look. I will ask Xiao Jiang to show you around.”

Chen Qizhao smiled. “Is he that powerful?”

“It is enough to take you.”

“That’s good.” Chen Qizhao tapped on the screen of his phone with his finger and said with a condescending expression, “Okay. If I go to the company then you have to ask him to take me. I don’t want anyone else.”

Chen Jianhong sat down next to him. He heard Chen Qizhao say this and just replied casually, “The premise is whether you can focus on business. Otherwise, it will be the same even if I ask ten people to take you.”

“This child, you just said you don’t like the way he looks and now you want him to take you.” Zhang Yazhi’s tone was a bit conniving. “Even so, you should go to the company to see. You will be able to get a better start if you want to get in contact with the family business in the future.”

“I know.” Chen Qizhao’s tone remained unchanged but his eyes contained an imperceptible coldness.

Yes, this person was really powerful. It was a shame that he was so powerful and ignorant.

Chen Jianhong’s eyes stayed on Chen Qizhao for a long time before he finally noticed a rather abrupt box on the table. “Who bought this?”

Zhang Yazhi saw the situation and replied, “Xiao Zhao bought it to measure blood pressure.”

She took out the electronic measuring device from the box as she spoke. “Come, Xiao Zhao said to let you try it too.”

Chen Qizhao heard Zhang Yazhi say this and thought it would be good if this person could measure it obediently. Chen Jianhong didn’t seem like it but he was actually arrogant and unyielding. He was getting older but he still followed the projects. If people stayed up late then he also stayed up.

Saying to his face that he had high blood pressure would probably make Chen Jianhong unhappy.

Sure enough, Chen Jianhong frowned slightly when he saw it. “What is the point of buying this type of thing?”

Chen Qizhao thought inwardly, ‘You should drink less wine and stop staying up late. Then maybe I wouldn’t buy this thing and you can live longer.’

The rare thing was that he wasn’t angry today because of Chen Jianhong’s words. Perhaps it was because he had long expected for Chen Jianhong to say this so he wasn’t surprised at all.

He thought aimlessly that it might be more comfortable for him to get angry and quarrel like a reckless young man, asking Chen Jianhong why he didn’t take good care of his body. Then he thought about how this person was finally gone because of a cerebral hemorrhage and couldn’t say any harsh words. Finally, he had to choose silence.

Zhang Yazhi glanced at Chen Qizhao quietly. She knew that this child was very concerned about her and her husband’s health recently. Sometimes he didn’t say it explicitly but everything he commanded went to Old Zhang. She also heard Old Zhang say that Chen Qizhao would occasionally call home after school. He didn’t ask anything else and would ask about her and her husband’s work and rest, as well as their eating habits.

Nevertheless, Chen Qizhao never said these things explicitly.

“What are you saying about the thing that your child bought? It is for your good health. Didn’t you say you were dizzy a while ago?” Zhang Yazhi looked a bit reproachful as she told Chen Jianhong, “It is the child’s kindness. You should say less.”

Chen Qizhao raised his head when he heard Zhang Yazhi’s words.

Chen Jianhong noticed Chen Qizhao’s subtle movement, even if the other person raised his head and quickly lowered it.

In the past, he hadn’t thought that Chen Qizhao could be so careful, nor did he think this child would care about their bodies. He knew this child very well. Chen Qizhao was careless and didn’t have any perseverance in doing things. Sooner or later, he would be deceived when entering society. This time, Qin Xingfeng’s incident caused the child to suffer a big loss. He thought that the child would be able to remember it for a long time yet seeing the child as casual as ever, he felt a bit of hatred for this child’s stubborn heart.

Yet just now, he still keenly captured Chen Qizhao’s emotional changes.

Chen Qizhao was still thinking about Chen Jianhong’s dizziness. He hadn’t heard about it before and it wasn’t mentioned when he asked Uncle Zhang.

He was thinking about how to get the words out of Zhang Yazhi’s mouth when he suddenly heard Chen Jianhong’s voice.

“Then measure it.” Chen Jianhong took the measuring device from Zhang Yazhi’s hand. “Is this the same as an ordinary blood pressure device?”

“It is almost the same.” Zhang Yazhi looked at Chen Qizhao, who was motionless next to him, and looked at the other person. “Come, Xiao Zhao. Help your father measure it.”

Chen Qizhao’s slightly clenched hands loosened and he quickly got up and walked over to help.

Chen Jianhong looked at the child in front of him and always felt that the child had changed a lot in the time they hadn’t seen each other.

“Recently…” He had just spoken when he was interrupted by Chen Qizhao.

“Shut up.” Chen Qizhao lowered his head to help do the straps right, not looking at anyone at all. “Didn’t the doctor tell you not to talk when measuring your blood pressure?”

He added, “Hands flat.”

Zhang Yazhi covered her mouth and smiled. “Yes, keep your hands flat.”

Chen Jianhong: “……”

He suddenly felt that his blood pressure was a bit high.

The blood pressure test results came out quickly. Sure enough, Chen Jianhong’s blood pressure was a bit high, which was a bit abnormal for his age.

Zhang Yazhi was surprised. “Jianhong, it is a bit high..”

Chen Jianhong tore open the straps, his tone as usual. “I am like this at my age.”

The housekeeper, Uncle Zhang, also said, “Sir, age isn’t the key. You are indeed on the high side.”

The result that Chen Qizhao was most afraid of was that this person had no big problems. As a result, there was an accident and he was gone.

Seeing this result, he was inexplicably relieved and his tone relaxed a bit. “It is too high. You are 160 for your age and you say there is no problem? You have to go to the doctor to take some antihypertensive drugs to control it.”

Chen Jianhong said it was fine but Zhang Yazhi ignored him and called the doctor directly.

Chen Qizhao handed Zhang Yazhi a message as well. “The reason for the high blood pressure should be investigated. It is best to go to the hospital for a physical examination.”

Chen Jianhong had been very busy lately and he had no time at all. “I will just take some antihypertensive drugs.”

“What is it? High blood pressure might lead to cerebral infarction and stroke.” Zhang Yazhi’s attitude was unusually resolute. “No, you must listen to me in this matter. Old Zhang, you go and arrange it. We will go to the hospital tomorrow for a physical examination.”

Chen Jianhong had a headache and pinched between his eyebrows. “Then let’s wait a few days. There are many things going on recently. I have to go to a party next week so there is no time.”

“Which party?”

Chen Qizhao asked, “Wouldn’t it be better to let Chen Shiming go? Do you still want to do everything yourself?”

Zhang Yazhi explained to him. “It is the one I am taking you to play at.”

Chen Jianhong added, “The charity party held by the Lin family.”

Chen Qizhao was stunned. “Which one?”

“It is your Uncle Lin’s house.” Chen Jianhong didn’t notice Chen Qizhao’s expression as he put the blood pressure device back into the box. “As a child, you went to his house to play. It was only a few years ago. You even forgot your uncle?”

Chen Qizhao’s index finger moved inadvertently and there were no emotions hidden in his half drooping eyes.

He pulled his lower lip, hiding the ruthlessness and excitement that spread from his bones to his limbs. He smiled and said, “Uncle Lin… how could I forget?”

He clearly remembered Lin Shizong.

      I love that his mom has just grown used to his subtle nagging and is using it as a good reason to keep after her husband to take care of his health since he tends to overwork and neglect himself.
