Chapter 614 Zhang Family Affairs (2) For Zhang Dan Shui, their so called friendship was worthless.
Looking to the street through the window, Zhang Dan Shui could see the lively familiar street. The corner of his lips curled up to form a faint smile filled with mockery.
In the past, this liveliness would never be associated with him.
And now, a lot of people were trying their best to be on his good look.
'People are surprisingly very materialistic.'
The truth of human nature was very clear in this regard. Zhang Dan Shui would not judge them either. He knew very well that he himself was the same in regards that he would try to curry favor with the strong and powerful.
When he was weak and had nothing but potential, he was desperate to survive. He was trying his best to find someone who could protect him and brought out his real potential.
Living like a dog every single day back then was nothing more than an act to protect himself. If he showed his fang and threaten his father or half brother's position, they would not hesitate to kill and destroy him.
For his father, he was a worthless son.
For his half brother, he was a half brother who could be trampled on will.
His very existence was nothing more than a stepping tool for them to show the world just how 'powerful' they were.
"Zhang Family is still nothing more than a small official." Zhang Dan Shui laughed unkindly, recalling the report that Dark Moon Organization handed to him not long ago.
Before he went to Heng Xing City, his father was someone whom he couldn't touch at all. But now, it was no longer something that was impossible.
His father is smart?
If he was truly smart, he wouldn't have ended up as a small official after more than two decades serving as an official in the palace.
Zhang Dan Shui felt that he was lucky.
Lucky to be able to meet with the person who could protect him and allowed him to grow to be who he is right now.
Prang!
The head of Zhang Family smashed the porcelain beside him. "What an unfilial son! Did he not know he's not supposed to stay outside at this point of time? What is he thinking?"
"Master, please don't be so angry." The servants were all terrified.
"How can I not be angry at such unfilial child?" Zhang Family Head wanted to smash more things. Zhang Dan Shui is his son and it was also true that he didn't care for that concubine born son before. But now that Zhang Dan Shui had achieved so big, he didn't even want to interact with them?
He would never let it happen!
"Go and persuade that unfilial child! He had to return before night or I'll let him know the consequences!" Zhang Family Head was so angry that he flared up.
"Yes, Master." The servants hurriedly scrambled away in order to invite Zhang Dan Shui back into Zhang Family Residence.
If they fail, they would be the one punished heavily.
Not far from him, Zhang Dan Shang was not feeling very good. He was the second son and also Zhang Dan Shui's younger brother. But because he was born from the main wife, his position was naturally higher than his older brother.
He had a smooth sailing prospect in the past. After all, his father's position was stable and there were not many people who dared to offend him and would rather not get into trouble. Right now, his ranking was somewhat in the middle, not really attracting attention but still better than his peers.
Zhang Dan Shang has always been the proud person. Among his friends, he indeed had the best result, but there were actually many other better officials than him. It was just that he was not close to them because they didn't want to be associated with him.
Hearing that Zhang Dan Shui was successful now made Zhang Dan Shang felt very uncomfortable.
Very uncomfortable at that.
Zhang Dan Shang listened to his father giving order and frowned.
"Young Master..."
"Let's go."
Zhang Dan Shang turned around, not wanting to stay in the main room anymore. Any topic regarding his step brother made him felt nauseated.
