It was later that Xie Jingchi found out that Qin Shen had missed an extremely important group meeting in order to attend his own trial.

In addition to the private nature of the case itself, it is necessary to maintain silence at all times even if you are an observer, so the compromise method of teleconferencing cannot be used on the way.

The acquisition case next door has reached a critical moment. As the person in charge of the project, Qin Shen cannot leave for too long.Counting the time spent on the road and back, Qin Shen stayed here for a day and a night, dealing with a lot of group business that had accumulated during this time - if everyone's time can be valued, then every cent of Qin Shen's every cent There should be several zeros after the seconds.

The night before returning to Ming City, Qin Shen had an appointment that he had to go to, so he couldn't stay by Xie Jingchi's side any longer.

Because it was not a particularly formal meeting, Qin Shen set off with only his assistant and a few cronies.

Before leaving, Xie Jingchi, who was originally reading a book in the living room, raised his head, the moist sunset smeared evenly on his body, and the edges of his outline were bright as if they were about to melt into the flowing, uncertain day.

He seemed to have a lot to say, but in the end he only said one sentence: be careful on the road.

The person Qin Shen wanted to meet was Jiang and his name was Jianchun, and he was a leading figure in the northern transportation and steel industry.

Jiang Jianchun emerged in his 30s, and his early experiences were basically a mystery.The information Qin Shen obtained only stated that he was an Alpha with great business acumen and tough tactics, and he established his own business kingdom with iron-blooded methods like wind and thunder.

The steel tycoon with a net worth of tens of billions retreated to the second line three years ago on the grounds of being ill, but this did not hinder his activity. Rather, being freed from the complicated business of the group gave him more opportunities Space for fists and feet.

After resigning, Jiang Jianchun served as directors of three companies and concurrently served as the chairman of several foundations.

Looking at many people of the same age as Jiang Jianchun, most of them either went bankrupt or spent the rest of their lives in prison, and very few of them were able to spend their old age peacefully like this.

Being able to carry on the huge wealth acquired in the early years to the next generation is a remarkable ability in itself.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Qin Shen and the others arrived on time.

The meeting place was decided long ago. It is a membership-based private club. Because the review system is extremely strict and does not accept applications from ordinary individual travelers, it has a good reputation among the upper class of the city.

Jiang Jianchun's people were waiting on the side of the road early, and someone came to meet Qin Shen as soon as he got off the car.

The leader, a middle-aged man with firm eyes, is tall and handsome, and the subordinates around him are also in suits and leather shoes, ready to fight.

"Chairman Qin, it's a pleasure to meet you." The middle-aged man shook Qin Shen's hand neither humble nor overbearing.His voice is loud, just like the first impression he gives people is very energetic.

"Happy to meet."

Qin Shen looked at the middle-aged man in front of him calmly.

Jiang Lian, Jiang Jianchun's adopted son, is also Jiang Jianchun's designated heir. He is currently the chairman and CEO of the Jiang Group.

As for why he came to greet him, Jiang Lian had his own explanation, "Father is getting old and his legs are not so agile, please forgive me, Chairman Qin."

Anyone who knows Qin Shen knows that he is not a harsh person.In many things he has a tolerance that is not in line with his status, especially with the elderly.

"It doesn't matter."

Passing through the transparent revolving door and the resplendent hall, Qin Shen and Jiang Lian stepped into the elevator together.

This kind of club has direct access to elevators, and there is no possibility of bumping into other guests. Qin Shen is not a talkative person, and Jiang Lian probably isn't either, so in the narrow space there is only the slight hum of mechanical operation.

"I have long heard that Chairman Qin is young and promising, and seeing him today is indeed the case, which is admirable."

Probably this is also a kind of talent, such exaggerated words are spoken seriously by someone like Jiang Lian, and they seem very sincere.

Standing beside Jiang Lian, Qin Shen didn't seem to be much compared to him.His back is straight at all times, "Thank you."

The elevator door opened, and the private room that came into view was not as luxurious as the first floor. I wish every inch of the space was filled with the four characters of "luxury and extreme desire".

The floor is red maple wood with clear lines, the wallpaper is elegant champagne color with very elegant dark lines, and several impressionist oil paintings are also very stylish.Oil paintings and works of art should be real, if they are fake, they will be too low.

According to the assistant, Jiang Jianchun was bowling next door, and Jiang Lian asked Qin Shen and the others to wait in the reception room before going in to call someone.

After a while, Jiang Jianchun finally appeared.

Jiang Jianchun was over sixty years old, his hair at the temples was completely white, only the part near the center was still a little black.

He and Jiang Lian have three points of similar appearance, but the outline is deeper and harder: the forehead is full, the atrium is slightly longer, the eye sockets are sunken, and the tip of the nose is a little hooked. When not smiling, the whole face is easy to look sullen.

If they hadn't known that Jiang Jianchun had done a paternity test when Jiang Jianchun adopted Jiang Lian, using modern science to prove that the two were not biological father and son, otherwise anyone would think that the two of them had some kind of inexplicable blood relationship.

Unlike his son's subordinates in formal attire, Jiang Jianchun was dressed in gray sportswear, with his hands behind his back casually, looking extremely casual.

Perhaps it was because he had been in a high position for many years and his prestige was still there. Jiang Lian, who was still a leader before, was no different from his subordinates in front of him.

"Oh, Chairman Qin, you are such a rare visitor. Will you finally see me, an old man?" Jiang Jianchun said slowly, without much emotion in his tone.

Older people, no matter how well maintained the rest of the place is, their hands can never be fooled.

Just looking at Jiang Jianchun's face, he looked like he was in his early fifties, but the hand exposed under the cuff of his sportswear was wrinkled, and there were scattered spots of deep and shallow age spots.

"Sorry." Qin Shen lowered his eyes, "I was caught up in other things."

Theoretically, this meeting should have come earlier, the other party's secretary sent the invitation more than half a month in advance, but because he was always busy with such and such things, he postponed it until tonight.

Jiang Jianchun expressionlessly rubbed the emerald wrench on his thumb.

After a while, he suddenly laughed loudly, "It's not a big deal. Young people should have their own careers. I was much busier than you when I was your age. Mr. Qin, you don't know anything. She is a loyal fan of Ms. Ruan Heng."

The name Ruan Heng is not unfamiliar to many people present, especially the middle-aged people in their forties.

The smash hit Beta actress, at the peak of her career, married an outsider and then retired. She died unexpectedly many years later, causing many people to sigh.

Jiang Lian, who had been serving as the background board, was called by his adoptive father before he spoke, "I really like Ms. Ruan Heng's movies very much. My favorite is "A Spring Dream in the Homeland", and I often revisit it."

"Really?" Jiang Jianchun was noncommittal.

In order to prove that he is really Ruan Heng's fan, Jiang Lian talked about many details in the movie, many of which would be difficult to notice if he hadn't watched it many times.

For example, the two cheongsams worn by Ruan Heng in the first half and the second half of the movie are not the same one, and the embroidery on the neckline is slightly different - the reason is that the former one was accidentally damaged, and another one was made overnight in order not to affect the progress. pieces.

Qin Shen didn't answer immediately.A trace of emotion flashed quickly in his eyes, too fast and too light, like a small stone thrown into a bottomless pool, the slight ripples spread, and then calmed down again.

"Thank you, she should be very happy."

It was obvious that he was speaking to Jiang Lian. It was different from his usual business affairs, and there was no doubt that there was some personal emotion in his words.

"She likes others to praise her for making good movies."

Unlike the lively and humane subordinates in the other room, the three of them had their dinner in an orderly manner.

Under the soft light of the chandelier, the topics at the dinner table revolved around the new policies introduced at the beginning of the year.

The performance of the previous mayor was not satisfactory during his term of office, and the new mayor vowed to revitalize the city's economy after his resignation.

Four consecutive new policies will be officially implemented in January next year. Many people are waiting to see whether the sluggish real estate market will get a shot of powerful stimulants or continue to drive higher and lower.

The future of Yungang City is confusing, and the only certainty is that those consortiums that are deeply rooted and occupy 90% of the resources at the top of the pyramid will not be so easily shaken.

If you want to reshuffle everything, unless there is enough strong foreign capital, it can cause a huge impact on the local market that has been calm for too long.

It was unknown whether the dishes were not to his liking, or Jiang Jianchun himself did not have a strong appetite. After the dishes were served, he seldom moved his chopsticks.

Qin Shen noticed that he seemed to like the lily fish fillet very much, otherwise he wouldn't have used it twice in a few minutes.

"Dong Qin is so young, so he must not be married yet?" Sensing his gaze, Jiang Jianchun said suddenly.

The topic suddenly turned to this place, and Jiang Lian, who was sitting not far from him and was just eating food in silence, froze.

The atmosphere at the table suddenly became weird.

Qin Shen put down his chopsticks slowly, "Indeed not." He didn't have the habit of talking with others while eating.

"But you have a suitable partner?" Jiang Jianchun asked again.

Qin Shen thought for a moment, "I can't say it's suitable, but I'm personally satisfied."

"is it?"

Jiang Jianchun narrowed his eyes, his gaze was as sharp as a falcon's.

Soon he slowed down again, as if everything was just an illusion caused by too bright lights, "Since you have a partner, you might as well listen to what I have to say as a person who has experienced it."

"You say."

"I had a child with my second wife, an Omega. My wife died young, and I raised him alone." Speaking of the past, Jiang Jianchun's words seemed a little sad .

The data recorded Jiang Jianchun's two marriages: his first husband and second wife were both Omega, and after his second wife died of illness, he suddenly became ascetic in his prime of life, and the outside world often Said that this was the reason for his incomparable love for his second wife.

Regardless of the truth behind it, Jiang Jianchun did not remarry for decades.

As for the child that Jiang Jianchun had with his second wife, compared to Jiang Lian, who was clear on his high school transcripts and clubs he joined in college, it was more like an adoption, and everything was unclear. .

"I am ashamed to say that he was a very ignorant child. He resisted me many times at a young age, and finally ran away from home because of some ridiculous things. It was nothing more than running away from home, and he even married a gangster and had children." Jiang Jianchun snorted in displeasure, "I have always regretted that I didn't discipline that child strictly, otherwise his child wouldn't give me as much headache as he does. He is a very disappointing child. So does the one below."

Qin Shen listened to Jiang Jianchun very quietly. When he said he was disappointed, he tapped his finger on the table twice.

If anyone who knew him well had been present, it should have been seen that this was a sign of his being in a bad mood.

"I thought my cheap grandson had a little bit of backbone, but in the end he was as submissive and weak as my failed son."

Jiang Jianchun sneered, and finally explained the real intention of calling Qin Shen here tonight, "Mr. Qin, my unworthy son left a will, and this petty will uses marriage as a condition of succession. The grandson is bound by your side."

He rubbed his emerald finger—this was probably a subconscious habit of his. The side of the emerald finger was polished extraordinarily smooth, and there was a warm and watery light under the old and rough fingertips.

"What will?" Qin Shen spoke in a calm tone without much emotion.

"So you don't know?" Jiang Jianchun said meaningfully, "It's not a big deal. Listen to what you said before, since the child is not a suitable partner, the marriage contract between the two of you is just verbal. As the child's elder, can I bother you to let him go? Although I am not a useful talent, I am Jiang Jianchun's grandson anyway..."

"I'm different from you." Qin Shen sighed, and finally interrupted Jiang Jianchun's eloquence.

Jiang Jianchun, who was rarely refuted in person like this, stared at him displeased.

Qin Shen stood up from his seat, "I really have no experience in raising children, but personally, I am willing to let him do whatever he wants."

Now that this is the point of the conversation, there is no need to continue this meeting, which was meant to be drunk.

"Mr. Jiang, I have read all the things your secretary sent, and I will give you an answer as soon as possible. As for the rest..."

Qin Shen curled his lips helplessly, but the smile didn't enter his eyes, "If Xie Jingchi is willing to go with you, then I won't keep him."
