Chapter 66 The New Year is approaching
The end of the year is approaching, and many young people now choose to travel during the New Year. Xinghai, as a tourist city that is still warm in winter, has ushered in a small peak in passenger flow.
The business chain that Jiang Yuexing developed in Xinghai was running steadily and improving, which made him feel relieved for the time being. In addition, there were so many people in Mincheng who wanted to smooth over their relationship with him at the end of the year, so he temporarily bid farewell to Xinghai and returned to Mincheng.
Jiang Zhi learned that his father had returned during boxing class, and happily punched the coach a few times, who cheered in approval.
She quickly went to the locker room, changed her clothes and rushed out, then saw the annoying boy again in the corridor.
"Jiang Zhi, just agree to it. What's wrong with you not liking me?"
The boy standing in front of Jiang Zhi was about fifteen or sixteen years old, in the period of puberty when he was growing up. His body shape was still between that of a teenager and a young man, but his expression was very mature.
This boy is a child of the Zheng family, which is one of the major capitals in Mincheng. It was once glorious in its early years, but has been on a downward trend in the past decade. There are many reasons for this, but a large part of it is due to external factors.
At that time, the Zheng family was the only powerful family with a dictatorial power and many enemies. In order to compete with them, the Jiang family married into the Chen family. Chen Hui was the only daughter of the Chen family. After Jiang Yuexing quickly sidelined the Chen family, the old man of the Chen family died of illness.
Jiang Yuexing held the Chen family's capital and slowly eroded the Jiang family. After discovering Jiang Yuexing's signs, Old Man Jiang simply became a hands-off boss. Later, he completely delegated power to Jiang Yuexing and went abroad to live a leisurely life in his later years.
Jiang Yuexing is tough and decisive. After several rounds of negotiations with the Zheng family, the Zheng family gradually restrained their arrogance. In recent years, the Jiang family has received strong support from the Su family, and its position in Mincheng has become increasingly stable.
"Get out of the way." Jiang Zhi didn't want to get entangled with him.
"Jiang Zhi, let's talk first. You will have to marry into our Zheng family in the future anyway..." Zheng Runze had secretly heard at the door of the study that his family was interested in forming an alliance with the Jiang family.
Jiang Zhi put on boxing gloves when he saw Zheng Runze. Now when he heard Zheng Runze say such rude words, he punched Zheng Runze in the face.
Zheng Runze was caught off guard and was knocked to the ground by Jiang Zhi's full-strength punch, with stars in his eyes.
Jiang Zhi lowered her eyes and looked at Zheng Runze lying on the ground. The light above her head made it difficult for Zheng Runze to see her expression.
"Didn't your father teach you to be careful with your words and actions?"
There were only three days left until New Year's Eve, and Zhou Cheng finally decided to leave for Yingjiang. He didn't contact his family often, so he didn't tell them about the shooting.
"Are you going back to Xinghai for the New Year?" Zhou Cheng asked Su Qingyan while packing his suitcase.
"Yes, I'm waiting for Director Su's notification." Su Qingyan brought over the cigarettes and wine that he had prepared long ago. "Don't ring the doorbell when you get there. I'll help you bring these things to the door."
"Will you come back with me?" Zhou Cheng stopped.
"Huh?" Su Qingyan was also confused. "Then how are you going to get back by yourself? It will take a long time to drive."
"I'm taking the high-speed rail and I've bought all the tickets." Zhou Cheng opened the app on his phone to show Su Qingyan.
"You...just refund it, I'll take you back." Su Qingyan snatched the phone and was about to refund his ticket.
"It's so troublesome for you to deliver it. You have to come back, and Yingjiang is not close to here." Zhou Cheng said as he went to get his phone. "I finally got this ticket on the waiting list..."
"Zhou Cheng, you..." Su Qingyan stood up with the corners of his mouth lowered.
"You must be tired from driving..." Zhou Cheng held his waist with both hands and stood up.
"Driver, drive." Su Qingyan put the phone in Zhou Cheng's hand and hugged his shoulders.
"Aren't you tired of sitting?" Zhou Cheng noticed that he was in a bad mood and quickly hugged him.
"Business, you can even lie down and roll around." Su Qingyan pushed Zhou Cheng's hand away, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and stood with his back to him.
"I'm just worried that I'll cause you trouble." Zhou Cheng also followed.
"Zhou Cheng, when will you change your self-abuse habit? You have just been discharged from the hospital and are not fully recovered yet. Can I let you take the high-speed rail home by yourself?" Su Qingyan turned around and held Zhou Cheng's head with both hands and shook it, trying to shake out the water in his brain.
After packing the luggage, Su Qingyan asked the driver to come up and carry the luggage. The driver tactfully took the nanny elevator. Su Qingyan's temper came and went quickly. She took Zhou Cheng's arm and went downstairs together.
"How many days will you stay at home?" Su Qingyan asked, holding Zhou Cheng's hand.
"About a week. I haven't been home for the New Year in several years. My parents definitely won't let me leave too early." Zhou Cheng knew that Su Qingyan had almost gotten the business in Mincheng in order recently, so he continued, "Since your father hasn't given you any news yet, you can just spend the New Year with me in Yingjiang."
"If I don't go, and you don't give me a status, what am I in your family?" Su Qingyan muttered to himself that he didn't want to go and act anymore.
Zhou Cheng's father was out buying New Year's goods, and his mother was cleaning the house. Just when they were worried about not having any help, Zhou Cheng came back. He was urged to change his clothes. Zhou Cheng went from being a pampered young man living on the top floor of a luxury house in the city center to a laborer carrying New Year's goods.
"Move these boxes to the basement. They won't be used recently. Throw away the garbage at the door. By the way, there are a few boxes of wine in the garage. Move them up. Your father has built a new cabinet, so put these wines in it." Zhou Cheng's mother immediately assigned Zhou Cheng a bunch of physical work.
"Mom, this wine is a gift from my friend. Tell my dad when he comes back so he doesn't get it mixed up with someone else's." Zhou Cheng put the gift prepared by Su Qingyan on the table.
"I see. Go ahead and move it. There's still a lot of work to do. Your dad always runs outside to avoid work at this time. It's really infuriating." Mother Zhou held a rag in one hand and an electrostatic duster in the other.
Zhou Cheng uttered an "oh" and began to move things, wondering if Su Qingyan and the others had gone far, and if he could ask the driver to come back and help him. After he had laboriously moved several boxes of things to the basement in several batches, he was already sweating profusely. He rested for a while and then went to throw away the garbage. When he came back, he saw Xiao Han at the door of the unit.
