Jiang Yao got into the car under Wen Xuehui and her other friends’ resentful gazes. After she got into the car, Ah Lu told her that Huang Chengjing had invited Lu Yuqing and Manager Sun. It seemed like Huang Chengjing was the middleman; he was there to help someone discuss matters with the Changkang Group.
Jiang Yao thought that it was only a few of them. When they arrived at the location, she realized that Gu Haoyu was also there. Besides Gu Haoyu, she also saw Qi Xiang, whom she had met once when school started, and Qi Xiang’s father.
When she saw the Qi family, Jiang Yao knew that Huang Chengjing was there as a middleman. Naturally, he was there to help the Qi family. It was likely that his great-aunt or grandmother had forced him to do that—every family had their own difficulties.
Jiang Yao took a seat between Gu Haoyu and Lu Yuqing. Ah Lu and Da Ke waited outside the private room. She was the last one to arrive; everyone else was already there.
“When did you return to Nanjiang City?” Jiang Yao asked Huang Chengjing curiously. Then, she turned around to look at Lu Yuqing. It was likely that he had contacted Lu Yuqing as soon as he had returned. Therefore, Lu Yuqing must have known that Huang Chengjing had returned; the two might have even discussed it in private.
If it were not for Manager Sun, Lu Yuqing’s investigation and Gu Haoyu’s agreement, the Qi family’s father and son duo would be there.
“We arrived yesterday afternoon. I have to thank you and Young Master Lu for what happened in YN. By the way, I also heard about the incident in YN. Young Master Lu has excellent friends.” Huang Cheng sat next to Lu Yuqing. She did not know if he arranged their seats on purpose.
After a full circle, Gu Haoyu sat in the main seat casually. Jiang Yao was to his right, then Lu Yuqing, Huang Chengjing, Qi Xiang’s father, Qi Xiang, and finally, Manager Sun. The six of them sat in a circle, and it was just right. It was not crowded, and there was no sense of alienation.
After Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi returned to China, Huang Chengjing stayed at Ruan Yongjun’s place. Therefore, he saw Ruan Yongjun’s countermeasures to eliminate any traces of Lu Xingzhi. When the people from the YN government were there to investigate, they did not find anything. Even if they asked the residents there, they would not get any information.
“In the end, I decided to buy a mine near yours. It’s not Mr Xiao Jin’s mine, but the mine next to the other one.” Huang Cheng knew that Jiang Yao had gone to YN and took down two mines in one go. On the one hand, he was perplexed about Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi’s decisiveness, and on the other, he was envious of their luck. For one to take a mine with 50 million bucks, it was all about luck!
Even though it caused a lot of trouble for Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi, they managed to settle it perfectly.
Jiang Yao was curious about how much Huang Chengjing had spent, so she asked him.
“Mr Carl helped with the price, and the final price was 120 million,” Huang Cheng said. “I’m looking forward to the establishment of your jewelry company now.”
Jiang Yao smiled—120 million was not a low price. However, she had seen the mine that Huang Chengjing had bought, and it was worth the price. He would earn far more profit with the mine than what he had spent on it.
Gu Haoyu sat there like a god. There was a slight smile on his face as if he had listened carefully to the conversation between Jiang Yao and Huang Chengjing. However, Jiang Yao bet that Gu Haoyu did not listen to them at all; it was his usual expression.
