Chapter 1339: Ah Zhu’s Ambition

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.”

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.
