Chapter 153: New Year's Eve
Xu Yihuan came out of the restroom and was about to return to the private room when she saw a familiar figure.
Jiang Jinnan leaned against the wall, head down, lost in thought.
Xu Yihuan's heart skipped a beat.
Although they hadn't seen each other for so long, she always felt that Jiang Jinnan's personality was a bit subtle, an indescribable feeling, but she just didn't want to run into him directly.
Xu Yihuan tried to pretend she didn't see him and walk straight into the private room, but Jiang Jinnan stopped her.
"Huanhuan hasn't seen me in so long, don't you miss me?"
Jiang Jinnan looked a little aggrieved.
He spent half a day at school but couldn't find Xu Yihuan. He didn't see her during the club recruitment either. Later, he saw her walking with Jiang Tingbai. In a fit of anger, he went to find Jiang Tingbai and got into a fight.
As a result, his father was extremely protective of his son, and after the old man found out, he often caused trouble for him at school. Later, when he finally had some free time, he remembered that he had Xu Yihuan's WeChat account, and only after sending her a WeChat message did he realize that she was involved.
I don't know when, but I was blocked.
Xu Yihuan's lips twitched. Since she couldn't leave, she might as well give up.
She looked up at Jiang Jinnan and asked, "Why should I miss you?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jinnan's lips immediately pursed, and her beautiful eyes looked at Xu Yihuan with watery eyes: "If you don't want to, then don't. Why did you block me, sister?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yihuan couldn't help but frown. Although she really didn't want to have too much contact with Jiang Jinnan, she hadn't blocked him.
Why slander her for things she didn't do?
So Xu Yihuan earnestly explained, "I didn't block you."
Jiang Jinnan's eyes lit up instantly: "Really? Then scan me now."
Xu Yihuan glanced at him up and down. Was this guy crazy?
Jiang Jinnan wasn't embarrassed at all. He turned around, took out his phone, and opened the QR code.
Xu Yihuan felt helpless, but it seemed that her family and their family would soon be cooperating, so she did not refuse.
After scanning the QR code, the homepage will redirect.
Xu Yihuan: ...When did she block her? I have no recollection of it at all.
Xu Yihuan, who had been so confident, felt a little guilty and coughed lightly twice.
He pulled the person back in front of him.
"Okay, okay, I already told you we have WeChat."
After saying that, Xu Yihuan slipped back to the private room while Jiang Jinnan wasn't paying attention.
Today, the two families got together to discuss the details of the project in Beijing. As for the shareholding ratio and construction direction, the contract was finalized back in Yunding Mountain.
This project involves building a top-tier luxury shopping mall in another newly developed district in Beijing. They have inside information that, due to the need for economic diversion, the government will strongly support the economic development of this area, making it a new economic center. Because of its special geographical location, if the economy here develops, it can also radiate to the surrounding cities.
With the influx of people from surrounding cities... coming here should be a sure way to make a fortune.
Furthermore, the government will introduce new policies to promote this initiative next spring.
They only plan to operate their own two businesses, since no one wants a group of people sharing the pie.
As for the two children, Jiang Jinnan and Jiang Tingbai, they were also brought over by Jiang Huaiyuan to study.
He had always thought that Tingbai was more capable than Anan, but after half a year, it seems that this might not be the case.
Jiang Jinnan never cared about Jiang Tingbai before, and didn't care what he did. But in the past six months, for some reason, he inexplicably started making things difficult for Jiang Tingbai.
The key is that you can find the right one every time.
Jiang Jinnan does not oppose such competition; on the contrary, he believes that survival of the fittest is more important.
Therefore, he plans to have Jiang Jinnan and Jiang Tingbai take over the same project, and then decide who will be the one to focus on developing.
However, these things are definitely not suitable to be brought up at a dinner party.
Tomorrow is Lunar New Year's Eve, so it's not a good time to chat too late today.
"Alright, Brother Rongyu, since that's the case, I'm really looking forward to cooperating with you."
"Then we'll see you in the capital!"
After Jiang Huaiyuan finished speaking, he extended his hand and shook hands with Xu Rongyu.
Xu Rongyu smiled and shook hands in return: "Okay, see you in the capital."
“In that case, I’ll take Uncle Xu and the others back!” Jiang Jinnan stepped forward.
Jiang Huaiyuan glanced at his son and saw that he was staring at Xu Yihuan, so he knew what his son was up to.
However, he didn't object: "Then let Anan take you back!"
Xu Rongyu did not refuse the kindness of others. He did not bring a driver, and since it was the Chinese New Year, he had already given them a holiday.
"Then I'll have to trouble Anan!"
Jiang Jinnan smiled and said it was no trouble at all.
Jiang Tingbai squinted and looked back and forth at the group of people.
Sweetie said, "I'll go with my brother too, otherwise I'm not comfortable letting him go home alone!"
Jiang Jinnan scoffed: "What will happen to Dad if you leave? Do you want him to drive home drunk? Aren't you worried about Dad going home alone? You ungrateful wretch."
Jiang Tingbai was taken aback by Jiang Jinnan's words, and his face turned a little embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, brother... I didn't think that much about it."
“You’re right, I should have gone back with Dad…”
He was verbally apologizing, but his expression betrayed his deep grievance.
Jiang Jinnan rolled her eyes, turned around and went downstairs first.
It was more than an hour later when Xu Yihuan arrived home.
Xu Rongyu opened the door, and Xu Yihuan walked behind him. Today's commotion had really left her exhausted.
Xu Rongyu sighed, "I didn't expect Anan to have grown up so much. Back then, you two were so close when you were little, why aren't you saying much today?"
Xu Yihuan collapsed onto the sofa as soon as she entered the door: "It's been hundreds of years since we last met, how could things be any better?"
Xu Rongyu nodded, a thoughtful look on his face: "What you said makes sense."
Xu Yihuan dragged her tired steps to wash up, but after washing up, her mind became clear again.
Xu Yihuan called Tan Zhixu for a chat, and she wasn't sleepy at all until the end.
Xu Yihuan finally fell asleep around 3 a.m.
By the time they woke up the next day, it was already evening.
Xu Yihuan came downstairs in her slippers and immediately saw a busy figure in the kitchen.
"Oh, you're awake. Come sit down, the dumplings will be ready soon."
Xu Yihuan didn't stand on ceremony. As soon as Xu Rongyu finished speaking, she took her phone and sat down on the sofa to play with it.
Whether it was because it got dark quickly or because Xu Yihuan got up late, by the time they ate dumplings, it was already dark outside.
Although the two of them spent the New Year in quiet solitude, the sight of steaming dumplings and the sound of firecrackers outside still brought a touch of festive spirit.
The Spring Festival Gala has become increasingly boring in recent years. Xu Yihuan is occasionally amused by the dry humor, but Xu Rongyu seems to enjoy it immensely.
The father and daughter were watching TV together when Xu Yihuan's phone rang.
Xu Yihuan glanced at the caller ID and raised an eyebrow in surprise. Why was he suddenly calling her?
Perhaps it was Xu Yihuan's reaction that attracted Xu Rongyu's attention. Xu Rongyu also looked at her, his eyes asking what was wrong?
Xu Yihuan hesitated for a moment, but still answered the phone.
