Chapter 26 Chapter 26 Returning to China
"It's different, really different." Yang Han murmured.
It was a rare occasion to have a proper private party in the club. The man sitting opposite him had long eyebrows and deep, dark, and sharp eyes. He had lost the arrogance of a young gentleman two years ago, and now he was more calm and unfathomable with the experience of fighting in the business world. His tight-fitting suit outlined his tall figure, and just a glance from him made people feel nervous.
Cheng Shuze is now the real controller and person in power of Cheng Group.
Even after knowing each other for years, Yang Han had to admit that Cheng Shuze had become increasingly cold and ruthless over the past two years, his methods ruthless and brutal. Cheng's business was expanding at a breakneck pace, and aside from its long-standing partnership with the Jiang Group, he showed no mercy to other companies. If Cheng's company hadn't yet planned to enter the restaurant industry, he feared that this wealthy second-generation would not have many years left under Cheng's ruthless tactics.
If he tried to play a head-on game with Cheng Shuze, he was really worried that he would lose so badly that he wouldn't even be able to afford a job to beg for food.
His friends actually envied him, saying that since he and Mr. Cheng had been friends since childhood, as long as he clung to Mr. Cheng, he would never have to worry about anything in his life. He told them that Mr. Cheng must support them when the time comes. They could line up and cling to Mr. Cheng, and even give him a position to serve tea, pour water, massage his shoulders and legs.
As the backbone of the dandy family, he didn't even have the grace or the shamelessness to do so. They were even more servile than him. Yang Han angrily slammed the table and told them to get out. He hadn't even picked her up yet, so why should someone else pick her up first?
joke.
He wanted to cling to the big brother, but he didn't know if he could do so. If Brother Cheng was willing, he would be his lackey, but the problem was that he couldn't cling to the big brother at all, and he didn't dare to do so.
If it was Young Master Cheng from two years ago, he could have lied on the ground and begged his elder brother for help, but now facing Mr. Cheng, who has the final say, he doesn't even have the courage to throw a tantrum.
He always felt that if he really lay down now, his brother Cheng would not even look at him, but would slowly stand up and step over his body and leave.
Young Master Cheng is now a truly powerful figure who can have a crushing conversation with their fathers and grandfathers, unlike these idle bastards.
When facing a strong person, even if they are friends, one will unconsciously look up to them with awe.
Besides, in recent years, Brother Cheng's temper has become more and more unpredictable.
"What's different?" Cheng Shuze held up the slender wine glass with his slender finger bones. The scarlet wine swayed under the dim light, and the bright color was as flowing as blood.
Yang Han was silent for a moment: "Brother, you seem to be different from before."
"Before, your brothers asked you to drink, but you refused."
Yang Han regretted it the moment he blurted out this statement.
Why didn’t Brother Cheng drink alcohol before? It was because someone in his family had a prohibition on drinking.
Over the past two years, the past between Brother Cheng and Miss Jiang has become a taboo, with no one daring to mention it. Privately, they only hint at it, never mind speaking it to Cheng Shuze's face. While the Cheng and Jiang companies appear to be working smoothly on the surface, the underlying closeness is no longer what it once was. However, it's said that the relationship between the two families' elders remains strong, a shift that's only occurring after Cheng Shuze took over and restructured the company's strategic plans.
Because of this incident, coupled with the divorce and unhappiness in both families, I heard that Brother Cheng hadn't been home for two years.
"In the business world, you have to drink a little." Fortunately, Cheng Shuze seemed not to hear what Yang Han said. He raised his head and drank the jade liquid in the glass in one gulp. "But you have to be careful recently."
Yang Han's skin tightened all over.
Brother Cheng said slowly, "The quality control at Yuguting isn't as good as it was two years ago. If the quality control can't be guaranteed, there probably won't be a place for you guys when the resort officially opens."
Yang Han's face turned bitter.
"Brother, last time was an accident. We still need wild bluefin tuna from the Eastern Pacific in February. You're putting me in a difficult position. I can still get you a few from the North Pacific. Of course, the quality of frozen bluefin tuna isn't as good as freshly killed ones."
Cheng Shuze raised his index finger to interrupt him.
"You can handle it yourself. You know what will happen if something goes wrong." Cheng Shuze's eyes passed over the Royal Oak double balance wheel black gold watch on his wrist. "I'm leaving first."
Yang Han stood up to see him off and sighed: "Okay, it's really not easy to ask you out recently."
"He Yue's schedule is so packed that it's almost infuriating. How could he spare some time to see you? What else do you want?" Cheng Shuze glanced at him lightly.
"Oh, Mr. Cheng, it's an honor for me to take time out of my busy schedule to attend the banquet." Yang Han immediately flattered him, "Mr. Cheng, when are you free next time? I'll make an appointment in advance."
"Make an appointment with He Yue two weeks in advance." Cheng Shuze put on his black suit jacket, his rare smile disappearing. "Let's go, no need to see me off."
"Hey, wait a minute." Seeing that Cheng Shuze was really about to leave, Yang Han suddenly remembered why he had come to see him today. He called Cheng Shuze and hesitated for a while before finally taking out his phone. "In case you didn't know, she... is coming back."
Miss Jiang's circle of friends is prominently displayed on the mobile phone screen, with the flight ticket, airport, take-off time, and landing time all clearly visible, and a long list of congratulatory comments from mutual friends below.
Although no one talks about the marriage between Cheng and Jiang now, and Brother Cheng acts as if it never happened and they just want to stop talking to each other forever, he always feels that the problems between Brother Cheng and Sister Jiang have not been resolved, especially now that the other party is coming back.
If we don't know about this in advance and suddenly meet him in Linjiang City, it will cause a lot of trouble.
When the name of someone from two years ago suddenly appeared, Cheng Shuze's reaction was much calmer than Yang Han had imagined: "I'm not blind."
"Oh, you know. Okay, as long as you know it, I'm just afraid that you don't know it. Hmm?" Yang Han paused.
How did Brother Cheng know this again? Where did he see it? He remembered that Miss Jiang had blocked him a long time ago, didn’t she?
Before Yang Han could ask any more questions, Cheng Shuze had already strode out of the private room.
As he stepped out of the hall, He Yue had already parked his car at the gate and was waiting. When he saw Mr. Cheng appear, he immediately opened the car door.
"Mr. Cheng, this is your schedule for tomorrow. Please review it." He Yue handed the tablet to the boss in the back seat. "Tomorrow evening at 7 o'clock, there will be a dinner with Mr. Du from Tingyao Company."
After two years of intense training under his boss, Assistant He had already become quite adept at these matters. After all, he had to live up to not only his years of service but also his string of bonuses.
"There's a remote meeting in an hour. Should I take you back to the office or back to Yujiangyuan?"
"Go back to the company."
"Yes." Assistant He replied and turned back to the main road skillfully.
After Cheng Shuze finished looking at tomorrow's work schedule, he closed the tablet and put it aside without saying a word.
After a while, Assistant He asked carefully, "Boss, is there anything that needs to be changed about tomorrow's arrangements?"
"No." Cheng Shuze's voice was clear.
He Yue fell silent. After a while, he couldn't help but whispered, "I think... Miss Jiang's flight should land around 4 pm tomorrow."
The person behind did not respond for a long time.
"There are no meetings scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. Do you need me to pick up Miss Jiang at the airport?"
After He Yue finished speaking, the temperature in the car suddenly dropped to freezing point.
However, even colder than the temperature was the boss's voice.
"You don't want to do it anymore?"
"I'm sorry, boss." He Yue lowered his head instantly, "I asked too much."
For the past two years, Mr. Cheng has either been working or on his way to work. He's rejected countless women who have flirted with him, both overtly and covertly. Even the pervasive gossip media have no material to spin rumors about him. He was clearly waiting for Miss Jiang to return, and now that she's finally back, why didn't he even go to the airport to greet her?
Since Miss Jiang sent him the flight itinerary, he also specially arranged most of his work for tomorrow.
However, the boss's thoughts are always unpredictable. Since Mr. Cheng said he would not go, then he would not go.
"Jiang Jiang! Here, here!"
"Sister Jiang!"
"Director Jiang!"
In the exclusive waiting area at the VIP channel exit, as soon as Jiang Yiyu appeared, she was surrounded by friends who had been waiting for a long time.
"Wow, Jiang Jiang, I haven't seen you for a long time. How come you look thinner again? The food must not be good abroad." Tang Ya hugged Jiang Yiyu and patted her hard, crying loudly.
"Alright, alright." Jiang Yiyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "We had a video call yesterday, how come we haven't seen each other for so long? What's going on?"
"It's been more than ten hours since we last met." Tang Ya took a step back and waved her hand, and Jiang Yiyu was instantly surrounded by a sea of flowers.
"Congratulations to Director Jiang Sais for the Best Visual Effects Award!"
Tang Ya held a large bouquet of Blue Roses, the team held a large bouquet of Chrysanthemums, and Cheng Shuyi held a champagne rose, all of which were stuffed in front of her.
"Thank you." Jiang Yiyun hurriedly took all three bouquets and smiled. "When people send flowers, they always send a large bouquet with different kinds of flowers. How can you separate the flowers and send three bouquets at once?"
"It can't be helped. We only realized we bought flowers when we got here, so we wanted to give you a surprise." Tang Ya put her arm around Jiang Yiyu's shoulders. "How about going back to sleep to adjust to the time difference or having a party? We've already booked the place."
Jiang Yiyu finally managed to hold the three bouquets of flowers steadily, and tried to poke her head out from the large bouquet. She looked carefully at her friends who were surrounding her, a smile flashed in her eyes, but she hesitated for a moment.
"I..." Jiang Yiyu turned around and looked around, but didn't see the familiar figure she was looking for. "It's okay to have a party today, but..."
"Well, you guys go to the hotel to set up first, Jiang Jiang and I will come over later." Tang Ya immediately spoke with understanding.
"Okay, then it's settled for tonight, all the rooms are ready." The few of them waved and laughed, and took away Jiang Yiyu's suitcase.
After watching them leave the airport, Tang Ya turned around with her arms folded: "Tell me, Miss, what's wrong?"
