After get off work.
Zhou Mo packed up and prepared to leave.
Qi Yan saw it and said, "Senior Sister, let's go together?"
Zhou Mo: "Um...Han Chen is here to pick me up."
"..." Qi Yan: "Okay. I forgot that Brother Han is back. My brother came to pick me up, and I was thinking of asking you to take a SF Express car."
"Thanks, but that's okay," Zhou Mo said, "Han Chen is already downstairs."
"Okay," Qi Yan quickly turned off the computer, "Let's go downstairs together?"
"Um."
At the entrance of the School of Health Management.
A white Mercedes-Benz CLA was parked not far away.
As Zhou Mo walked out of the college gate, she saw her car. She turned around, waved to Qi Yan, and said goodbye, "I'm leaving first."
"goodbye."
Qi Yan said goodbye to Zhou Mo with a smile, raised his eyes and saw Zhou Mo's car not far away, and complained silently in his heart that Qi Tan came so late and he shouldn't have lent him the car.
I saw Zhou Mo get on the passenger seat of the Mercedes-Benz.
Qi Yan felt even more unbalanced.
He took out his cell phone and called Qi Tan, asking him where he was.
Qi Tan: "Right away. I've already seen you."
"Hmm?" Qi Yan's cell phone was still to his ear, and he looked around until he finally saw a Cadillac slowly approaching not far behind him.
Qi Yan put down his phone and got on the passenger seat.
As he fastened his seatbelt, he said, "As expected, my brother can't compare to my girlfriend."
Qi Tan frowned: "What do you mean?"
Qi Yan said, "Sister Renmo's husband has been waiting at the door since he got off work. Look at you...how long have I been waiting?"
Qi Tan gave him a cold look and said, "Are you going to eat or not? If you don't want to eat, take a taxi back now."
Qi Yan stuck out his tongue. "Eat. I'm giving you a free meal. How can I miss such a good opportunity?"
Qi Tan glared at him without saying anything else, turned the car around and headed towards "Zhu Lu Zhongyuan".
On the way.
Qi Yan was filled with curiosity, "Brother, why did you break up with my senior sister?"
Qi Tan rolled his eyes at him and asked, "Why are you asking so many questions?"
Qi Yan: "Just out of curiosity."
He squinted his eyes and carefully looked at Qi Tan. "You are not bad, are you? You are my senior sister's senior. You are both from Dongjiang, so you are a good match."
Qi Tan: "They're already married, why are you talking nonsense?"
Qi Yan suddenly smiled evilly: "So - if she's not married, you treat her..."
Qi Tan's face was cold: "You think too much. What happened in the past is in the past. It was impossible before and it will never happen again in the future."
Qi Yan: "Is it not possible to just assume?"
Qi Tan: “No assumptions.”
Qi Yan: "You broke up with my senior sister because we were in different places. How did you let her go after you went to the imperial capital? Was it because you met her later..."
"Qi Yan," Qi Tan said, controlling his temper, "Didn't I tell you not to mention a single word about what happened in the imperial capital?"
"There's no one else here, so why don't I ask? I haven't told anyone..."
"I told you not to mention it, and that's it, no matter who you're talking to," Qi Tan said, his tone softening slightly. "I'm still not familiar with the officialdom in Dongjiang. This isn't the capital. I'm still a political newcomer in Dongjiang, and I haven't gotten my bearings yet. Exposing my weaknesses to those around me will only lead to a more miserable end. Do you want to see me transferred to a county below Dongjiang before you're satisfied?"
Qi Yan knew that he would make mistakes if he spoke too much, so he lowered his head in shame.
"I understand," Qi Yan apologized, "I was wrong."
"From now on, no matter who it is, especially those in your group, you must be more careful," Qi Tan said, "Don't say a word about my affairs."
"Yes, that's right."
Qi Tan tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
"Recently, a leader from the imperial capital has come here, and I have to be on guard," Qi Tan said, "Let me tell you something."
"What?"
"A professor named Han from the University of Political Science and Law came with those leaders," Qi Tan said. "On the surface, Professor Han was an accompanying researcher, but in reality... he was the true mastermind behind this operation."
"Han?" Qi Yan murmured.
"Yes, you should have guessed what's going on, right?" Qi Tan said, "He is Han Ji, the second brother of Han Jue, who competed with me back then. He is also the second brother of your 'Brother Han'."
Qi Yan was stunned for a moment: "Han Jue and Han Chen are a family?"
"Well," Qi Tan said, "otherwise I wouldn't have asked you to stay away from Zhou Mo."
In a sense, the Han family and they are "rivals."
Qi Yan: "What is the origin of this Han family?"
Qi Tan: "Don't ask about this kind of thing."
This was also the experience he gained after living in the imperial capital.
There are some things that you cannot ask about. The more you ask, the more you will run into obstacles.
Qi Yan: "Then Han Jue's second brother came to Dongjiang this time... Isn't he here to settle accounts with you?"
Qi Tan: "I don't think so. I have already left the imperial capital, avoided competing with Han Jue, and never touched the interests of the Han family. There is no reason for them to cause trouble for me. I'm afraid there are other reasons."
Qi Yan: "Then he came to Dongjiang..."
Qi Tan: "We can only wait and see what actions they take."
Qi Yan nodded secretly, and his expression was no longer as casual and nonchalant as it was at the beginning.
He was worried, "Brother, why don't you quit and go home? Uncle is in need of help. Wouldn't it be nice to go home and inherit the family business? You don't have to stay in this crappy company and suffer."
Qi Tan's brow darkened. "Only those within the system have the opportunity to get firsthand information. Do you think doing business is just pure business? In China, business has always been inseparable from the officialdom. Apart from anything else, the real estate market has been turning around since a few years ago. Those who don't understand are still increasing their holdings, while those who do understand have already cashed out and run. My dad also started to transform his side a long time ago under my advice. Look back now. Land auctions in Dongjiang are extremely cold right now. Which of the leading private real estate companies in the province is still acquiring land? If it weren't for the Dongjiang Municipal Government's early move a few years ago, and the Municipal Investment Corporation joined forces with other private companies to jointly develop Site 034, Dongjiang's finances might have collapsed by now."
Qi Yan lowered his head silently.
After Qi Tan's analysis, Qi Yan was deeply touched.
"Brother, I feel...I'm not suitable for the system."
"There's no such thing as suitable or unsuitable," Qi Tan said. "During an economic downturn, it's just as hard no matter where you go. It's better to work within the system. At least you won't starve to death."
"But I feel so bad. I don't understand what you're saying at all."
"What I'm saying doesn't mean every civil servant must know it. If you don't want to move up, you don't have to know anything at all. Living a muddled life isn't a bad thing," Qi Tan sighed. "Sometimes knowing too much isn't necessarily a good thing."
Qi Tan was quite envious of Qi Yan's innocence.
At least apart from food, there is nothing else to worry about.
Live freely and enjoy life.
Unlike him, the more he knows, the more he cannot get what he wants and the more cautious he has to be.
