Chapter 106 Study Abroad
At the end of August, the Wei family's case was sentenced. It was originally a crime of embezzlement, but it turned out to be hiring a killer to kill someone, and he was sentenced to death.
Chen Zan had already contacted foreign schools, and she could have gone there by herself. However, Xu Jing probably knew that Zhou Jingyu was in Rongchuan recently, and to avoid any complications, she took a leave and decided to send Chen Zan abroad in person.
Chen Jiaohua recovered completely from her illness and no longer planned to live in the city. She planned to go back to live alone in her yard in the countryside.
Before leaving, she stuffed a bank card into Chen Zan's pocket, knowing that Xu Jing would let her go abroad to study and would definitely not let her be without money. However, she knew that her granddaughter was an independent and self-reliant person. In addition, her relationship with Xu Jing had not improved much in the past two months, and she would definitely work and study abroad. Giving her money was just to prevent her from being wronged outside.
Chen Zhan held the bank card in his hand, his eyes sore, "Grandma, I will miss you."
Chen Jiaohua: "If you miss me, call grandma. Didn't you buy me a smartphone? We can video chat then."
Chen Zan nodded heavily.
Director Gu had already moved the suitcases downstairs. Xu Anan had something to do and couldn't come over, so she went directly to the airport to wait for the farewell.
Chen Jiaohua didn't let her go. It would take more than an hour to drive to the airport. She was afraid that the old lady would get carsick, so she asked her to stay at home.
Before leaving, Chen Zan hugged his grandmother reluctantly.
Xu Jing coldly reminded us at the door that it was time to leave.
On the way to the airport, the mother and daughter were still silent. Gu Wenjun tried to say something to ease the atmosphere, but it was of no avail.
Xu Anan arrived at the airport before them. She hugged Chen Zan and cried, saying that she would miss her. Shu Su and Shen Tangyue had not returned to school for summer vacation yet and could not come to see her off.
"You must come back during the holidays." Xu Anan really cried. It was one thing for her to support Chen Zan to study abroad, but now that he was really leaving, she felt empty inside.
Chen Zhan reached out and wiped her tears. "After all, you are the eldest daughter who will inherit the Xu family. Why are you so crybaby?"
Xu Anan snorted twice, "If you come back early, I will allow you to be my secretary."
Chen Zhan smiled helplessly, "Okay, Miss, if I can't make it, I will definitely come back to find you."
Xu Anan glanced at Xu Jing, who was standing far away. "Jin Hanzhou went abroad before you. I asked him to take care of you abroad. After all, we are classmates and worked together in the student union. It's good to have someone to look after you while you're away."
Chen Zan said softly, "I understand."
After Xu Anan finished speaking, she looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Chen Zhan asked her, "What's wrong?"
Xu Anan thought for a moment and then said, "Just now, I seemed to have seen Mr. Zhou's car in the airport parking lot."
Chen Zan was stunned all of a sudden, his face blank for a moment.
Xu Anan: "You and Mr. Zhou..."
Chen Zhan said calmly: "An An, it's over."
Xu Anan opened her mouth to say something, but when she met Chen Zan's clear and cool eyes, she swallowed her words back and said casually, "Okay, then let's go abroad and date some more handsome blond men. We don't want any ugly ones."
Chen Zhan: “…”
Before leaving, she asked Xu An'an for help. "An'an, I left something with my grandmother. If you are free, please help me give it to Xie Huaiqian."
After boarding and checking in, the plane roared away.
——
In the parking lot, Zhang Qing knocked on the glass window. The window was half lowered, and the cold air from the air conditioner slowly seeped out.
"Miss Chen is gone." Zhang Qing said with a stiff face.
Zhou Jingyu's mood has been unpredictable recently, and he and Bai Qi are also feeling a lot of pressure.
I thought Zhou Jingyu would get furious again when he heard this, but the man was hiding in the dark and his expression couldn't be seen. He just said "hmm" lightly.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qing was unsure of what Zhou Jingyu meant. He wondered whether he should tell her that Jin Hanzhou was also studying abroad and attending the same school as Miss Chen.
Then I heard Zhou Jingyu say in a cold tone, "Go back to the company."
He went to see Bai Qi, trying to figure out what the master meant. Bai Qi winked at him and told him that it would be best not to say anything under the current circumstances.
The black Bentley came silently and left silently.
At the end of September, Zhou Jingyu's promotion and transfer order was officially issued. He went to see him off with other senior executives, but was turned away.
At the moment when he felt regret, he sighed again. Zhou Jingyu's position when he returned to Beijing was not low. It was said in the past that Zhou Jingyu was not as good as the eldest son of the Zhou family, but now it seems that this is not credible. In a few years, they will not be able to reach him even if they want to.
Someone said: "This was earned at the cost of his life. No one else would be as reckless as Zhou Jingyu."
"Old He, you can't say that. Who would have thought that Wei Qiming, even after being incarcerated, would actually commit such a crime as hiring a killer?"
"If you ask me, Mr. Xu is really amazing. He caught Mr. Zhou's eye. Many of the Wei family's projects have been taken away by the Xu Group. Mr. Xu, please take good care of us in the future."
Xu Zhiqiang waved his hand modestly, "No, no, this is all thanks to Mr. Zhou's support. If we have any future cooperation, we can work together."
In just over half a year, the Xu family has become a completely different company. Everyone knows that among so many companies in Rongchuan, only the Xu family has really caught the attention of the Zhou family.
"Mr. Xu, I take this seriously. If you need cooperation, remember to contact me."
"Mr. Xu, please take care of me in the future."
"Mr. Xu..."
Xu Anan found Xie Huaiqian and completed the task that Chen Zan had assigned her.
Xie Huaiqian stayed in Rongchuan during this period, firstly because of his fourth uncle's instructions, and secondly because the Wei family relied on the Xie family to act so domineeringly in Rongchuan. Now that they have fallen, the Xie family must stay here to clean up the mess and ensure that this matter will not implicate the family.
So he stayed in Rongchuan until November before returning to the capital.
Coincidentally, on the day I returned to Beijing, I received news that Jiang Yushan had organized a private party to welcome Zhou Jingyu. Seeing that Xie Huaiqian had also returned, he just invited him to join.
Zhou Jingyu has been back in Rongchuan for more than a month and has been busy with his new post. It is different from his previous time in Rongtou Group. There are more things to pay attention to in officialdom.
Whether it is official business or social etiquette, there is a unique set of rules. Take dinner parties for example, exceeding certain standards is not allowed.
However, people from the major families have been influenced by their surroundings since childhood and have their own way of doing things.
Jiang Yushan didn't dare to invite outsiders to the party he organized that night. It is said that a new official starts with three major changes. In the more than one month since Zhou Jingyu took office, those who couldn't enter the Zhou family have come to Jiang Yushan. After all, he is a businessman with a low threshold. All kinds of people want to find him to help connect them, which really bothers him.
As Zhou Jingyu was busy, the welcoming banquet was postponed again and again until it was delayed until November.
Jiang Yushan didn't dare to invite too many people, so he just called his childhood friends to come and have some fun.
