Jiang Ruiming was born into the Jiang family, a scholarly family in the imperial capital.

There are many masters of Chinese studies among his ancestors.

Both his grandfather and father had served as principals of the top universities in China.

The influence of his family environment made Jiang Ruiming less shrewd as a businessman and more "simple" as a scholar.

When Hua Jian mentioned that she liked these paintings, Jiang Ruiming's eyes suddenly showed some joy.

"Oh? Whose paintings do you like?"

His voice sounded very calm, but Manager Chen's face was full of despair.

It’s over, Director Jiang was fooled again.

Hua Jian understood a little bit when he saw this, and he spoke more sincerely.

Xie Zhitan had just finished a meeting when he received Cui Lengyun's call.

Although he obtained a double degree in finance and management, there is still a gap between theory and practical work.

In particular, Xie's business covers a very wide range and is complex in content.

Fortunately, Xie Zhitan got the hang of it quickly, and the only thing he had to worry about was his sleep.

"Hello? Leng Yun, what's up?"

"Your Xie family is really great." Cui Lengyun said in a sarcastic tone.

Xie Zhitan paused and looked up: "What happened?"

Cui Lengyun: "You don't know? Liangchen has changed hands."

Xie Zhitan narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly a thought flashed through his mind: "Hua Jian?"

Cui Lengyun was immediately irritated. "Fuck, no matter how stupid Jiang Ruiming is, he's still my uncle. Xie Zhitan, is this the kind of thing your Xie family does?"

His tone was filled with unconcealed anger: "How much is a good moment worth? Even if Jiang Ruiming loses everything, doesn't my Cui family still have to support him? Buying up scattered shares at a low price, is that what his friends do?!"

Xie Zhitan's face turned cold: "Cui Lengyun, I just learned about this a few seconds ago."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cui Lengyun sneered.

"Cui Lengyun, you're a lawyer yourself, and you still want me to tell you that no matter who acquires Liangchen's scattered shares, it's legal and legitimate? Why can't the shares of a listed company be traded?"

"Xie Zhitan! Cut the fucking crap! You're telling me it's legal and reasonable, are you even a fucking human? How long have we known each other? We've known each other since we were wearing crotchless pants!"

"You also called Jiang Ruiming uncle! He taught you calligraphy and classical Chinese!

"Don't you know that Liangchen is almost Jiang Ruiming's lifeblood?"

"Don't you fucking say you don't understand!"

"I'm telling you this out of respect. Hurry up and have Hua Jian make an offer to transfer those shares to Jiang Ruiming, or don't blame me for being rude to him!"

Cui Lengyun was extremely angry. His breathing, filled with resentment and hurt, left Xie Zhitan speechless for a moment.

"There must be a misunderstanding about Hua Jian. Give me some time..."

"Fuck you, Xie Zhitan! I, Cui Lengyun, don't have a friend like you! Beep, beep, beep..."

Xie Zhitan paused, then pursed his lips and threw the phone aside.

He pressed his temple for a long time, and then the gentle and refined professor of the Imperial University cursed in a low voice: "Fuck you, Cui Lengyun!"

"A-choo!"

The air conditioner in Jiang Ruiming's office is too cold.

When Hua Jian came out from him, a wave of heat hit him and he sneezed immediately.

He rubbed his nose and turned his head to look at Liangchen's gallery again.

My net worth has suddenly increased by a few small goals, how can I not be satisfied?

'Ding-dong.'

Hua Jian looked down and saw that it was Bo Lin.

He smiled and continued, "Are you installing surveillance on me again? I just came out of Liangchen. Are you done with your work? Tonight..."

Not knowing what the other party said, Hua Jian stopped in his tracks.

"...Oh, you have another date tonight."

"Of course, your work is important, huh."

"Okay, but who did you meet?"

"Go ahead and do your thing. I heard Jiang Kai calling you. You..."

Hua Jian frowned and took away the phone. The call with Bo Lin had been terminated.

Bo Lin hung up before he could finish his words.

This is the first time.

...so special.

Hua Jian took this uncomfortable feeling as being unhappy that Bo Lin had stood her up.

But he is a generous man.

If a friend cannot keep an appointment due to something and he has even been notified two hours in advance, he certainly should not get angry.

...

Bullshit!

Ever since receiving the call from Bo Lin, Hua Jian started to feel uncomfortable and found everything she did annoying.

The joy of Liangchen’s stock price surged didn’t even last more than a day.

He felt strange and couldn't help but have the thought of asking for a beating.

It turns out that money is not everything.

9pm.

A quiet bar in the heart of the imperial city.

"Second brother, what do you want from me?"

"What do you want to drink?"

Hua Jian asked in surprise, "Second brother wants to drink?"

Xie Zhitan said calmly, "Why, I can't drink?"

Hua Jian shut up immediately.

Who is so capable as to make this great professor so angry?

[Xie Zhiyan? Qin Ci? That shouldn't be the case. Xie Zhiyan is recovering in Country F, and Qin Ci has been under very strict supervision by the Qin family's old man recently. So who is it?]

[Forget it, it definitely has nothing to do with me. I'll just drink with him.]

Xie Zhitan's eyelids jumped, and he casually threw the small orange he was holding into the cup.

Hua Jian's eyebrows twitched.

Xie Zhitan: "Don't you have anything you want to tell me? Like your investment?"

Hua Jian immediately reacted: "It was Master Cui who made Second Brother unhappy?"

Xie Zhitan was very serious: "Cui Lengyun is my childhood friend and good brother, and Jiang Ruiming is his uncle. You should know all this."

Hua Jian nodded, his tone sincere: "Of course, second brother, you can rest assured. Director Jiang is not angry about my acquisition of shares. He is even very happy."
