章 33: Some Mistakes Can Only Be Made Once

編集者: Henyee Translations

"Have you made any progress on the woman I asked you to investigate?"

Zhan Jinghong did not even look up. He was reading the information in his hand as if he was just casually asking.

Zhan Jingtian looked uncomfortable. Of course he knew who else Zhan Jinghong was asking about, other than the woman he'd had a one-night stand with his second cousin that night.

He cleared his throat. "I started dealing with the group as soon as I got back. You know that Country Zero has recently purchased a shocking number of weapons from us, right? I have been extremely busy with just this matter alone recently. I haven't had the time to investigate it."

Zhan Jinghong looked up at the screen. A light flashed in his deep eyes, dark and unreadable.

He saw Zhan Jingtian on the screen. The other party was a little tired and his eyes were a little dim. He knew that the other party had only returned to the country in the middle of the night. Coupled with the fact that the New Special Group had been squeezed together recently, the other party was not trying to shirk responsibility by saying that he was busy.

However, for the past few days, he inexplicably missed the woman from that night. Although the woman's face could not be seen clearly, he was inexplicably fascinated and missed her.

His tone was calm, but brooked no argument. "Just taking the time to pass on some information. Are you so busy you don't have a few minutes left?"

So much time had passed. Even if that woman had monstrous power and background, it was impossible for the Zhan family to not find any information.

Zhan Jingtian threw caution to the wind and pretended to shrug helplessly. "The information is all on Zhan Qiang. I just punished him. He just left."

"You punished Zhan Qiang to go to the ancestral hall?"

Zhan Jinghong's expression darkened. His eyebrows furrowed unconsciously and his tone was disapproving.

Zhan Qiang had worked in the Shadow Department for many years and had a good relationship with his grandfather and second uncle. He was even more loyal to the Zhan family and had taken many risks. Now, he was half a member of the Zhan family and could be considered half an elder.

"No, Zhan Qiang watched us grow up. How could I be cruel enough to let him go to the ancestral hall? It was just a small punishment."

There was a hint of carelessness and indifference in Zhan Jingtian's tone. "In order for me to let Zhan Hui off, he actually dared to trample on the authority and dignity of the Zhan family. The Zhong family has been reckless and audacious for so many years. The entire Zhan family has long known that. It's not his turn to break this window paper! I think he's been living comfortably for too long. He really thinks that he's about to become the master!"

"You punished Zhan Hui to go to the ancestral hall." Zhan Jinghong wasn't asking, but it was a statement.

Zhan Jingtian nodded. He didn't think there was anything wrong with that. "Yeah."

Zhan Jinghong, who was leaning against the hospital bed, sighed helplessly. "That's enough. Let her out as soon as possible."

Zhan Jinghong's nonchalant attitude made Zhan Jingtian inexplicably unhappy. His expression was unhappy, and his tone darkened a little. "What do you mean by that? You're good in every way, but some things are too indecisive. All the food, clothing, and clothes in the Shadow Department were given to them by the Zhan family, including their abilities and martial arts. They were also given a second life by the Zhan family, and they're the masters they have to serve for the rest of their lives. Servants should be severely punished since they made a mistake! Otherwise, they won't be able to distinguish their status!"

Something was clearly wrong with Zhan Jingtian's agitation.

Zhan Jinghong knew the inside story. He sighed slightly and comforted, "Big Brother, it's been so long. If you continue to hold a grudge, you'll only torture yourself."

"I'll fucking take it to heart! I'll remember it for the rest of my life! It's these pieces of trash! They caused my mother's death! These traitors! I'll never forgive them for the rest of my life!"

Zhan Jingtian's emotions were getting more and more agitated, and he could not control the intensity of his tone. He could not even hold back from cursing.

Zhan Jinghong saw the other party's eyes filled with hatred and irrational madness. He shook his head helplessly and hung up the video call.

Zhan Jingtian stared at the black phone screen, his eyes wide with shock.

Was his second brother angry with him? He thought about how he had revealed his emotions just now. His second brother might have felt a little speechless. Zhan Jingtian's expression softened, and a smile appeared on his lips.

He still clearly remembered Zhan Jinghong's expression of understanding and helplessness.

He was venting on purpose. When his mother had been kidnapped, the Zhan family had sent the sharpest force in the Shadow Department to rescue her. But they had been indecisive and had missed the opportunity to save his mother.
