Rebirth of a powerful marriage

Chapter 12: An Olive Branch, or a Trap?

After Xu Zitai presented the flowers, he sat in front of his tombstone for a while, silently saying goodbye to his past.

During this period, Lu Zhaoming did not urge him. When he was silent, Lu Zhaoming also remained silent. The two of them were thinking about their own concerns without interfering with each other.

Before leaving the cemetery, Xu Zitai made an impromptu wish to pay homage to the secretary who died with him and the pilot of the airship.

But the staff of the cemetery told him that these two people were not included in the list of the dead in the cemetery. It is estimated that the price of the cemetery in the western suburbs is too expensive for ordinary people to afford.

Xu Zitai was right when he thought about it. Both the secretary and the driver came from ordinary families. It is normal for their families to not be able to afford a cemetery in the western suburbs cemetery. Maybe they were buried in other cemeteries. When they have a chance to find out their whereabouts in the future, they will go there. It is not too late to worship.

On the way back, Lu Zhaoming answered the phone and said to Xu Zitai, "I have a temporary negotiation meeting in the afternoon, so I won't accompany you."

"Go, go, don't accompany me." Xu Zitai waved his hand, thinking that I wish you would stop dangling in front of me.

Lu Zhaoming then asked the driver to send Xu Zitai back to Lu's residence, and then went directly to the company by himself.

Xu Zitai returned to the room and took off his coat habitually, only to see a business card fall out of his pocket.

He picked it up and took a look, only to realize that it was the business card left by the "Jia Daozhen" he met in the morning, so he casually threw it into the trash can.

After a while, Xu Zitai strolled back, squatted down and rummaged through the trash can for a while, and found the business card.

"Jia Daozhen...Jia Daozhen..." Xu Zitai read the name, feeling that it was not as simple as a fake name.If "Jia" is a homophony of "false", what about "Daozhen", which means telling the truth?

Xu Zitai set his sights on the other party's career again—professional consultant, what are you consulting?Is this profession really non-existent, or is he able to answer no matter what he asks?

With this curiosity, Xu Zitai hesitated again and again, and still called the other party according to the contact information left on the business card.

"Hello." The other party quickly connected the phone.

"Excuse me, Mr. Jia?"

"I am. Who are you?"

"I am... I am Zhuang Ning." Xu Zitai almost blurted out his real identity, but fortunately he stopped in time.

"So it's Young Master Zhuang." The other party laughed meaningfully.

Xu Zitai didn't quite understand the meaning of his smile, so he asked tentatively, "I heard you introduce yourself earlier as Xu Zitai's friend, may I ask... what kind of friend are you?"

"What kind of friends are Mr. Xu Zitai and I? Don't you know yourself, Mr. Xu?"

Xu Zitai was taken aback, and almost threw the phone out with a shake of his hand.

"Aha, please calm down." The other party seemed to have heard the movement on his side, and quickly smiled and comforted, "I don't mean to scare you, I just want to tell you that I have no malice towards you."

Xu Zitai took a breath and forced himself to calm down: "Who are you? I'm sure I've never seen you in my previous life, don't play tricks there."

"I'm a career consultant." The other party replied, "Of course, in a more informal way, you can also call me... an after-sales service assistant."

"... Huh?" Xu Zitai was completely confused.

"Let's put it this way, if you have any doubts about your rebirth and my existence, you can ask me, and I will tell you everything. But the premise is that we must make an appointment , interview."

After saying this, the other party hung up the phone conveniently.

Xu Zitai paced back and forth a few steps, wondering whether what awaited him was an olive branch or a trap.

He turned on his optical computer and searched the Internet for keywords such as "professional counselor", "Jia Daozhen", "rebirth", but he couldn't find any useful information at all.In the end, he had to log out of the webpage, and carefully erased these search traces one by one.

Do you want to meet this Jia Daozhen?Xu Zitai fell into a situation of swinging left and right.

Go ahead, what if the other party is just fooling him and waiting for him to throw himself into the trap?But if you don't go, the questions asked by the other party are too tempting. Xu Zitai really wants to know what happened to him during this period of bizarre events.

After such a battle between heaven and man for a while, Xu Zitai took a deep breath and made a decision—whether the other party was malicious or not, one thing is certain, that is, the other party must know the secret of his rebirth.

As the saying goes, if a child is reluctant to be caught by a wolf, he can only figure out the cause and effect of the whole thing by taking a risk to explore the other party's bottom, and only then can all the puzzles be solved.

Otherwise, he would just stay on the ground without a clue, and be kept in this cage called "Lu Mansion" by Lu Zhaoming like a canary. What to save the dealer and keep the independent brand of "Peak Travel"? It can only become empty talk.

After lunch, Xu Zitai changed into a suit of clothes and planned to go out, but was stopped by Li Xuecai at the door.

"Master Zhuang wants to go out?" Li Xuecai asked.

"I'm so bored at home, I want to go out for a walk." Xu Zitai glanced at Li Xuecai, "Why, is there a foot restraint order?"

"Young Master Zhuang is joking," Li Xuecai said with a smile, "You are the future wife of our Lu family, how dare we restrict your freedom. Just for safety reasons, I hope Young Master Zhuang can bring a bodyguard when traveling to avoid accidents."

As Li Xuecai said, he snapped his fingers, and a bodyguard in black came in from the door and bowed his head respectfully to Xu Zitai.

Before Xu Zitai could refuse, he listened to Li Xuecai's order to the bodyguard: "From now on, Young Master Zhuang will be your master. You have only one task, which is to follow Young Master Zhuang well and ensure his safety, understand?"

"Understood." The bodyguard replied sonorously.

Xu Zitai opened his mouth and closed it again.Although he didn't get along with Li Xuecai for a long time, he also knew that this housekeeper was very difficult to deal with.

"Okay," finally Xu Zitai shrugged and compromised indifferently, "If that's the case, then let him follow, let's go." Saying that, he stepped out the door first.

The bodyguard immediately followed up, keeping half a step away from Xu Zitai.

"What's your name?" Xu Zitai struck up a conversation with him as he walked.

"My subordinate's name is Yan Hong."

"Yan of the king of hell?"

"Yes."

"Nice name."

"Thank you."

"Where is your native place?"

"Planet G."

"Why did you think of running to planet Z?"

"I heard that planet Z is a newly developed planet, and there are more opportunities to come here."

"Well, it is indeed a good opportunity to meet your boss Lu."

"Yes. Now meeting Young Master Zhuang, the opportunity is also very good."

"The mouth is very sweet."

"Young Master Zhuang is too much for the prize."

The two asked and answered, and they had already walked to the square.

Yan Hong asked: "Will Young Master Zhuang take the airship? I'll drive it..."

"It's too ostentatious to take an airship," Xu Zitai waved his hand, "Let's rent a public motorcycle."

Yan Hong was stunned for a moment: "The public motorcycle can only take one person."

"Then one car per person."

"But..." Yan Hong is in a dilemma. If there is one car for one person, he has to drive himself and protect Zhuang Ning's safety, which is too difficult.

"Why," Xu Zitai squinted at him deliberately, "I don't have confidence in myself? Do you want Master to cooperate with you?"

"No," Yan Hong immediately stood up straight, "I have confidence!"

Xu Zitai gave him a thumbs up with a smile, then walked to the stop sign on the side of the road, pressed the call function on his mobile phone, and a public motorcycle drove up to him automatically and stopped.

Xu Zitai stepped up, put on his hat and helmet, and waved to Yan Hong behind him: "I'll take a step first."

"Hey Mr. Zhuang, wait..." Yan Hong hurriedly summoned another motorcycle and started to chase after it.

But what surprised him was that Xu Zitai's driving skills were very good, he was able to shuttle freely between the endless stream of motor vehicles like a swallow, and soon left Yan Hong by a large margin.

After Yan Hong chased him for more than ten kilometers, he finally lost sight of Xu Zitai. In desperation, he had to call Li Xuecai: "Butler Li, I'm very sorry, I lost track of him."

"What's going on?" Li Xuecai was taken aback, "What's the specific situation?"

So Yan Hong narrated what happened, Li Xuecai was silent for a moment, and said: "This time, you were careless, but that Young Master Zhuang... is really beyond my expectation. By the way, you can see his license plate number clearly." No?"

Yan Hong recalled it for a while and said, "I see clearly."

"Then search online based on the license plate number," Li Xuecai thought for a while, and ordered, "Don't disturb him after you find it, and report to me."
