In order to survive, in order not to be used and hurt by others, Zhou Zhenlin must learn to be cruel.

Yes, you must learn to be cruel! He said to himself in his heart.

Anyone who achieves great things is not ruthless.

…

Early the next morning, Zhou Zhenlin was struck by the sound of Jin Xiuyan vomiting again.

He now seriously suspected that Jin Xiuyan had contracted some disease, maybe it was transmitted to her by Yang Shuo.

Moreover, Kim Soo-yeon's temper is getting worse and worse, and the frequency of scolding Zhou Zhenlin is getting higher and higher.

Sometimes Zhou Zhenlin would even have the urge to stab her to death.

But her reason told her that it wasn't worth it, and this woman didn't deserve it either.

It's not worth ruining the rest of your life for such a bitch.

And that would make him go to jail, but Yang Shuo could continue to be romantic and get away with it.

He had to calm down, he had to calm down.

"What are you still looking at here? Why don't you go to the company to apologize to Yang Shuo? How will you get the money to pay off the mortgage if you don't work?

“If you don’t do anything day by day, you’re just a loser, a loser!

"I followed you because I was blind. If I had known this, I might as well have married a rich man!"

Zhou Zhenlin suppressed his temper and retorted in his mind: "Do rich people value second-hand goods like you? I really feel good about myself. I really think that I can marry into a rich family with a little beauty. Who do you think you are?"

Just then, a phone call came in.

Zhou Zhenlin picked up the phone and found that it was originally a call from the court, with the purpose of informing him of the court date.

He didn't know why he was still blackmailing him after he saved his life. Was it just a lack of money, or was there another agenda?

No matter why the old guy blackmailed Zhou Zhenlin, it didn't matter anymore. He definitely couldn't escape the lawsuit, which made Zhou Zhenlin determined to change.

If he was cold-hearted enough, how could he encounter such a bad thing?

If he was ruthless enough, how could Kim Soo-yeon dare to cheat on her?

Indeed, everything is the result of his being too soft-hearted.

"I see."

Zhou Zhenlin replied to the other side of the phone and hung up the phone coldly.

Jin Xiuyan said: "Who hit me?"

Zhou Zhenlin said: "The court informed me of the court date."

Jin Xiuyan sneered and said, "I won't accompany you when the time comes. I can't afford to lose this person."

Aren't you afraid of being embarrassed if you cheat? Why are you pretending to be noble?

Zhou Zhenlin sneered in his heart.

He didn't say anything, left home silently, and went to Gu Zhan's office again.

Now that his negative news has spread all over the Internet, how can he win the lawsuit if this continues?

However, Gu Zhan said: "Why are you so anxious? If you want to promote yourself, suppress it first. When enough netizens participate in this matter, we will make a big reversal. Then won't your image be improved immediately?"

Zhou Zhenlin frowned and asked: "What kind of big reversal?"

Gu Zhan said with a smile: "The old man who got into the accident turned out to be a regular customer, and the defendant turned out to be the second generation of a rich family, risking being blackmailed to convey the true feelings of the world.

"Is this news breaking enough?"

Zhou Zhenlin was stunned for a moment and said: "But I am not a rich second generation."

Gu Zhan smiled and said: "They don't care whether you are a rich second generation or not, as long as it is written like this in the news, they will believe it.

“Then, bribe reporters and let them draft the copy.

"Then, bribe the netizens and trolls, and then bribe a few passers-by to film an interview, won't your image improve?

"You don't really need to be a rich second generation, you just need to pretend. Otherwise, how can I say that you are an honest person? You don't have to be realistic in everything. Honesty is a good thing, but that's in business."

His words completely refreshed Zhou Zhenlin's worldview.

You don’t need to be a real rich second generation, you just need to pretend?

Has the world become so hypocritical?

But think about it, there are not too many news about fake second-generation rich people chasing gold-worshipping girls and some fake socialite groups that have recently been exposed on the Internet?

Gu Zhan continued: "When it comes to court, if you wear imitation brand-name clothes and rent a luxury car, on the one hand you will overwhelm them in terms of momentum;

"On the other hand, compared to your previous appearance of driving a shabby car and wearing ordinary clothes, people will think that you are a simple and unpretentious second-generation rich man who is more people-friendly. Naturally, more people will support you."

No wonder Gu Zhan was able to achieve no defeat in the legal field because he had a firm grasp of human nature.

Although Zhou Zhenlin felt despicable about his conspiracy, he still admired him very much in his heart.

Without such means, how could he become an undefeated legend in the legal profession?

Doing whatever it takes, just for the sake of victory, although this approach is abhorrent, it is exactly what Zhou Zhenlin lacks. He just worries too much and is bullied so miserably.

Zhou Zhenlin suddenly said: "Can you teach me in the future?"

Gu Zhan was stunned for a moment and said, "What should I teach you?"

Zhou Zhenlin's eyes were firm and he said: "I want to learn your methods."

Gu Zhan smiled and said, "Well..."

He twirled his fingers to hint at Zhou Zhenlin.

But Zhou Zhenlin didn't understand what he meant.

"Is it okay?" Zhou Zhenlin asked.

Gu Zhan sighed and said, "Have you read "Journey to the West"?"

Zhou Zhenlin nodded.

Gu Zhan said: "Bodhi Patriarch beat Sun Wukong three times in public. On the surface it was punishment, but in fact it was a hint to Sun Wukong to find him at midnight."

Zhou Zhenlin nodded in agreement, but did not connect the current incident with the story in Journey to the West.

Gu Zhan sighed and said, "You have to transform again. You can't learn it now."

Zhou Zhenlin said: "I will study hard."

Gu Zhan shook his head and said: "It's not a matter of whether you study hard or not. You will learn it later. Society is a big classroom and will teach you this."

From what he meant, he probably didn’t want to teach anymore, but Zhou Zhenlin could still understand him.

Zhou Zhenlin had no choice but to say thank you and leave.

After leaving the office, Zhou Zhenlin received a call from Han Shuyi.

"Hey, Zhenlin, I heard that you are involved in a lawsuit, are you okay?" Han Shuyi asked with concern.

Zhou Zhenlin said: "It's okay, I've found a lawyer."

Han Shuyi said: "This incident has a great impact on your image. How about I go give the plaintiff some money and you can keep it private."

Zhou Zhenlin's face darkened and he said, "Private? Wouldn't that be an advantage to him?"

"Zhenlin..."

Zhou Zhenlin said: "He wants to keep it secret, but I don't want to do it yet! You don't have to worry about this matter. We will see you in court when the time comes."

Han Shuyi on the other side of the phone was silent.

Zhou Zhenlin took a deep breath and calmed down.

No one can calm down if he saves people with good intentions but is blackmailed instead.

Han Shuyi said: "Where are you? I'll find you."

Zhou Zhenlin told Han Shuyi his location.

Not long after, Han Shuyi picked Zhou Zhenlin up in her Porsche.

Along the way, Zhou Zhenlin looked heavy and didn't say a word.

Han Shuyi was worried about him, so she wanted to make him happy.

"Zhenlin, looking at you reminds me of a poem." Han Shuyi said with a smile.

Zhou Zhenlin asked: "What poem?"

Han Shuyi said: "The moon on the sea is the moon in the sky, and the person in front of you is your sweetheart."

She looked at Zhou Zhenlin affectionately, with indescribable tenderness in her eyes.

But Zhou Zhenlin was indifferent.

Han Shuyi took out her mobile phone and muttered: "What's going on? I see people teasing their boyfriends like this on Douyin. Why don't you respond at all..."
