Chapter 453 Zheng Hongye's Family's Awkward Situation
"Mr. Zheng, Young Master Zheng, good evening."
"I apologize for disturbing your meal."
Manager Dong Jin smiled broadly. "I've come here without permission to ask you all to move to the Cloud Top No. 2 VIP room."
"What did you say?" Zheng Shaoqing's face immediately darkened. "What's the reason?"
"Because other guests need to use this private room." Dong Jin didn't mean to not want to say the reason, but it was just too difficult to say it.
He was also in a difficult position; no matter how he spoke, he would inevitably face anger.
"So you're saying you want to kick us out?" Zheng Shaoqing laughed angrily. "Manager Dong, since you call me Young Master Zheng, you must know who we are, right?"
"The Genting Restaurant has shares held by the Zheng family; we are the largest shareholder. We are entertaining distinguished guests here, and you dare to turn us away?"
"Do you want to quit?"
"This is truly the first time I've ever seen such a refreshingly unconventional way of resigning!"
"I know what you're saying, Young Master Zheng," Dong Jin said with a smile. "But please understand, Young Master Zheng, I have no other choice."
"The other young master Zheng specifically requested the Cloud Top No. 1 VIP box, and I didn't dare offend either of them, so I had no choice but to..."
"You don't dare offend either side, so you're picking on the weakest link, and we're the weak one, right?" Zheng Shaoqing interrupted him, and he finally understood. "Which Zheng Shao?"
"Young Master Zheng Zhanming."
"It's him!?" Zheng Shaoqing's face darkened further. "Dong Jin!"
"Tell me the truth, did Zheng Zhanming know we were here, which is why he deliberately chose this private room?"
"This..." Dong Jin was in a dilemma, as Zheng Shaoqing was right.
Zheng Zhanming just called to say he wanted to use the Yunding No. 1 VIP room, but he naturally said that the No. 1 VIP room was already occupied.
Zheng Zhanming didn't really care; he could just change to another private room.
When he asked one more question and learned that the guests in VIP room number one were Zheng Shaoqing and his family, his mind was immediately filled with a wicked sense of humor.
"That's really true!"
Zheng Shaoqing was furious. "Is Zheng Zhanming fucking insane?!"
"With so many private rooms here, is he deliberately trying to make things difficult for us?"
He gave his father a questioning look, and seeing that his father didn't say anything, he instantly gained confidence, "Tell Zheng Zhanming that this private room is not going to be given to him!"
"If he insists on wanting it, let him come and tell me himself!"
"And Dong Jin, remember this. I'll settle this score with you sooner or later. Don't think you can rest easy just because Zheng Zhanming is protecting you!"
"Get out of here! If you dare disturb our hospitality again, I'll skin you alive!"
Watching Dong Jin leave the private room, Qin Ge patted Zheng Qiuyi and asked with interest, "What happened? Who is this Zheng Zhanming?"
He could tell that Zheng Shaoqing was outwardly furious, but in reality, he was very wary of Zheng Zhanming.
Otherwise, Dong Jin wouldn't have been able to leave the private room like that; he would have been beaten so badly by Zheng Shaoqing that he couldn't take care of himself!
"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Master Qin." Zheng Hongye quickly took over, always maintaining a polite tone towards Qin Ge. "The internal conflicts within our Zheng family are truly shameful to admit."
"Dad, stop speaking in such a flowery tone, it's making me uncomfortable!" Zheng Qiuyi started talking again. "What's there to be ashamed of? It's clearly Zheng Zhanming who's petty and deliberately making things difficult for us!"
"He even fights for a private room, it really makes him look like a child!"
She looked at Qin Ge, and couldn't stop talking once she got excited, "Let me tell you, Zheng Zhanming is my cousin, and also my brother's cousin. We have the same grandfather, do you understand?"
"Zheng Zhanming and his family are all like they're sick in the head. They're always picking on us and want to fight over everything!"
"Especially my brother, he's always been overshadowed by him since we were kids, he's been so wronged!"
"I've always felt that my brother was a bit mentally disturbed, and that his later moral depravity was all Zheng Zhanming's fault. He was always putting pressure on my brother."
Zheng Shaoqing was only touched for a moment, but the next second she rolled her eyes. What a good sister she is!
Qin Ge smiled and asked, "Since you're all family, why are Zheng Zhanming and the others making things difficult for you?"
"Besides, aren't you of the same generation? Are you just going to let him bully you?"
He could tell that Manager Dong wasn't someone who acted without discretion; he should have told Zheng Zhanming that Zheng Hongye was also in this private room.
In other words, Zheng Zhanming didn't even respect Zheng Hongye, an elder, and deliberately caused trouble for his family even though he knew Zheng Hongye was there!
"Because Grandpa favors their family!" Zheng Qiuyi said angrily. "Grandpa has always favored Zheng Zhanming's family. Although they are all grandsons, he only dotes on Zheng Zhanming."
"Of course we don't want to be bullied like this, but my uncle, Zheng Hongyin, who is Zheng Zhanming's father, is the head of the Zheng family!"
"Given our different social statuses, and with Grandpa's favoritism, what can we do?"
"Qiuyi!" Zheng Hongye glared at his daughter. "They say you shouldn't wash your dirty linen in public, why are you telling Master Qin all this?"
After saying that, he gave Qin Ge an apologetic smile, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
Zheng Hongye understood even better why Zheng Hongyin and his group were targeting his family.
Back then, he was considered outstanding among his peers in the Zheng family, and he once competed with Zheng Hongyin for the position of head of the Zheng family.
Unfortunately, he lost.
In ordinary families, the second child is always the one who has the hardest time, let alone in a wealthy family like the Zheng family.
The winner takes all, the loser is condemned.
After Zheng Hongyin took power, he was always wary of Zheng Hongye. When he consolidated his power and firmly grasped the Zheng family, he tried every means to suppress Zheng Hongye.
Zheng Hongye is still alive today and remains one of the decision-makers in the Zheng family, all thanks to his shrewdness and ability to know when to advance and when to retreat.
He had long since lost the will to fight, nor the ability to fight anymore. He accepted his fate and only sought a peaceful life.
Zheng Hongyin gradually stopped paying so much attention to Zheng Hongye. However, when Zheng Shaoqing's generation grew up, the rare peace was broken again.
It is true that Zheng Shaoqing was outmaneuvered and suffered a setback by Qin Ge in the East China Sea, and his methods were indeed not very honorable, but the benefits he brought to the Zheng family were real.
Even as the head of the family, Zheng Hongyin could not erase Zheng Shaoqing's contributions, which made Zheng Zhanming appear awkward in comparison.
Zheng Hongyin is the current head of the family, but that doesn't mean his son will be the next head.
Thus, he once again felt threatened by Zheng Hongye's family.
As the group was chatting, the door to the private room was pushed open again, and a man who looked somewhat like Zheng Shaoqing and had an arrogant demeanor appeared, with Dong Jin standing behind him.
"Shaoqing, didn't I tell Manager Dong to clear out the private room so I could entertain important guests? Why are you still here?"
After Zheng Zhanming finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Zheng Hongye, feigning surprise, "Oh dear, Second Uncle is here too?"
