No one will ever see how much effort he had put into the company—the hidden losses and setbacks he suffered before understanding the rules of the business world. Some things are better left unsaid.
He was still Tang Hua, the young and successful business tycoon in everyone’s eyes. A man who had achieved success at a young age.
He should have been full of ambition, yet at this moment, he was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, lazily looking down from the twentieth floor. The bustling street scene shrank to resemble a miniature world, with cars and people moving like ants in this so-called golden business district, achieving another mundane and bewildered life. Even from the highest vantage point, the view remained the same.
He was never one to be sentimental. Perhaps having resolved a long-delayed contract dispute in the morning left him with no urgent matters in the afternoon, giving him rare leisure to indulge in melancholy. This was truly unlike him. If he had such a habit, “Tang Yuan” enterprise would have gone bankrupt several times already.
He was just… somewhat lonely.
“Hey, boss, while we’re all working ourselves to death, aren’t you feeling guilty about cooling off on the side?” The one who entered without knocking was Shi Zhongcheng, Tang Hua’s college classmate and military buddy. If their relationship were traced further back, Shi Zhongcheng’s grandfather had once been helped by Tang Hua’s father. Now the Shi family was a prominent construction company in the central region, and Shi Zhongcheng was Tang Hua’s special assistant, fighting side by side; besides negotiating business and battling enemies in the commercial world, more importantly, dealing with difficult shareholders and directors. There were too many eyeing him covetously, so he had always served as a uniquely positioned special assistant rather than a manager with practical responsibilities.
“What brings you here?” Tang Hua turned and glanced at him, casually lighting a cigarette and slowly exhaling.
“These are documents awaiting approval. Various project proposals for the ‘Yunzong Project’ in Hualien, all organized.”
“So quick?” He raised an eyebrow.
