Chapter 731: Chapter 727 Dialogue with Huang Zhengde

After Lu Tianxing boarded the Huang Family’s private plane and left Xiangjiang, Rose also followed Huang Feiyu to the Huang Family’s villa at Shallow Bay.

It was still the small pavilion where Huang Zhengde and Lu Tianxing had met before.

Seeing Rose following Huang Feiyu into the pavilion, Huang Zhengde immediately stood up, welcoming her, ”President Rose, welcome to my humble abode. I apologize for not being able to greet you further away, and I hope President Rose will forgive me.”

”Hehe, Elder Huang, you’re being too polite. May I ask why Elder Huang has invited me here today? Is there something you wish to discuss?” Rose said with a light smile.

”Feiyu, you may leave now.”

Huang Zhengde didn’t immediately answer but glanced at Huang Feiyu next to him, signaling him to leave. After Huang Feiyu had left, he turned his gaze back to Rose and slowly began to speak, ”President Rose, I want to know why we didn’t destroy the Zhao Family this time, but instead want to court them. What purpose does this serve?”

Rose seemed to have anticipated Huang Zhengde’s question, showing no surprise, as she replied calmly, ”Elder Huang, I think you understand the human heart better than I do. In this world, as long as one is human, one will have ambition. The stronger one’s forces, the greater their ambitions become. I don’t want to foster an uncontrollable, ambitious power someday.”

This was one of the reasons why Rose did not eliminate the Zhao Family but instead supported Zhao Long to take the helm of the Zhao Family.

In this world, nothing is more fearsome than the human heart, than ambition. Once a person’s ambition reaches a certain level, they are capable of anything. The Huang Family is indeed powerful, eminent in Xiangjiang, very suitable to be part of the Yama Palace, but she did not want to one day foster a force beyond her control, whereas Zhao Long was the force she has supported to counterbalance the Huang Family.

This was also why, in ancient times, some emperors, fully aware that some around them were untrustworthy, would turn a blind eye and allow the schemers and the loyal to fight one another. This creates balance. If any one side becomes too powerful, the consequences are unimaginable. Whether they are loyalists or schemers, once one side dominates, the inevitable result is the nurturing of their own ambitions. Once a person’s ambition emerges, it becomes uncontrollable, gradually growing until anything is possible.

Upon hearing Rose’s words, Huang Zhengde’s eyebrows furrowed, and he said in a deep voice, ”President Rose, isn’t that a bit excessive? I can assure you that there are no such overly ambitious individuals in the Huang Family.”

”Elder Huang, how can you prove that? Can you see through a person’s heart? Not to put it harshly, but after you pass on, can you guarantee that future generations of the Huang Family won’t harbor such ambitions? I don’t want to foster an ambitious person, nor do I want to make wedding clothes for others. I also don’t want to one day have to personally destroy the Huang Family, especially since this time around, Huang Feiyu is my life-saving benefactor. I don’t want to one day have to face you on the battlefield.” Rose said, looking at Huang Zhengde, her expression unchanging.

”However, Elder Huang, rest assured, though I support Zhao Long as another power, I won’t let him destroy the Huang Family. He doesn’t have the right, but I also don’t hope that one day the Huang Family will become my enemy. If that day comes, my man might hold back due to past sentiments and not lay a hand on you, but I, Rose, will not hesitate to become the villain. I hope you understand this, Elder Huang,” Rose continued.

”Alright, Elder Huang, that is all I have to say. Whether you join or leave the Yama Palace is your decision to make. Once you have considered it thoroughly, give me your answer directly. I have other matters to attend to, so please excuse me,” she finished.

Having said that, Rose stood up and walked towards the outside.

Huang Zhengde watched Rose’s retreating figure, his eyes flickering with light. He finally let out a deep sigh and sat in his seat, staring at the teacup before him, lost in thought.

”Sister Mei Gui, you’ve come out so soon? My grandfather didn’t give you a hard time, did he?” Huang Feiyu had been waiting outside the courtyard and, seeing Rose emerge, hurried up to her and said.

”No, why would your grandfather trouble me, a woman? He just discussed some matters with me, and when we finished, I left. Thank you for this time, Feiyu. I must be going now, but when you have time to come to Modu, I’ll make sure to treat you well,” Rose said, her face breaking into a smile.

”Sister Mei Gui, do you need me to see you off?” Huang Feiyu asked.

”No need, I can go out by myself.”

Rose shook her head and, after bidding farewell to Huang Feiyu, left the Huang Family residence without further delay. As for what needed to be said, she had already spoken. What shouldn’t have been said, she had also spoken. Now it was up to the Huang Family to make their own choices. If the day really came, she might not go so far as to annihilate the Huang Family, but from now on, they must disappear from Xiangjiang and become an ordinary household, not the renowned Huang Family of Xiangjiang.

...

At Modu International Airport, around one o’clock in the afternoon, a private plane descended slowly from the azure sky under the guidance of the control tower and touched down on the runway. It taxied forward, and while private planes landing at an international airport’s runway could be troublesome, it was an easy feat with the Huang Family making the arrangements.

Once the plane came to a steady stop, the beautiful flight attendant immediately opened the cabin door, and Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing walked down together.

Feeling solid ground beneath her feet, Bai Zhiqing let out a long breath, feeling as though her heart had finally landed. There was an indescribable sense of relief throughout her body. These past few days in Xiangjiang had been utterly draining, and now that she was finally home, how could she not feel more at ease?

Lu Tianxing also heaved a sigh of relief. After all, ”a golden nest and a silver nest are not as good as one’s own dog nest.” No matter how glorious it may be elsewhere, it could never outshine one’s own home.

”Wife, where shall we go now, home or to the company first?” Lu Tianxing asked Bai Zhiqing.

Bai Zhiqing was silent for a moment before responding, ”Let’s go home first! It’s the weekend, so Weiwei and Manman are probably at home. We should go see them first.”

”Okay, no problem. Then let’s take a taxi straight home.”

Lu Tianxing nodded and took the lead, walking ahead.

”Lu Tianxing.” Bai Zhiqing suddenly called out.

”What’s wrong?” Lu Tianxing turned his head back, confused.

”Help me with the suitcase,” Bai Zhiqing said coquettishly.

”Alright then!”

Lu Tianxing looked at the two suitcases behind Bai Zhiqing with a wry smile. According to his plan, they were supposed to return the way they had come, maybe buying a few small accessories as a gesture for Bai Weiwei and Mandala. However, Bai Zhiqing insisted on taking him on a shopping spree at the mall, where they bought a pile of gifts. They had left with one suitcase and returned with two.

After handing one of the large suitcases to Lu Tianxing, Bai Zhiqing, carrying a suitcase of clothes, walked to the other side and immediately looped her arm through Lu Tianxing’s. She didn’t hesitate at all. As Bai Zhiqing saw it, now that she and Lu Tianxing had the most tangible relationship, there was no need for secrecy. If a person had to hide their loved one, then that kind of life really meant nothing at all.
