Chapter 241

Bai Ying, like Chen Zhaoru, had her mouth wide open, unable to speak for a long time, and even forgot to breathe.

"You... are not joking with me, are you?"

"Is it very surprising?" Chen Zhaoru smiled. "When I heard it, my reaction was the same as yours; I just thought Brother Dong was joking with me."

Bai Ying murmured, "It's really hard to believe that that Western restaurant was opened by Brother Dong. I heard it earns tens of thousands of yuan a month."

Chen Zhaoru said, "Such a large winery was almost bankrupt, but in the end, it was saved by Brother Dong. Employee wages went from being in arrears to being the highest in Jiangzhou now, just because Brother Dong is the factory director."

"And Dicos, that was also opened by Brother Dong. Look at how booming the business is; every day so many people are queuing up to eat. So, we can disbelieve anything, but we must believe in Brother Dong's business acumen. If he says it can make money, then it will definitely make money."

Bai Ying shuffled out in her shoes, and Chen Zhaoru asked, "Where are you going?"

"To my mother's house, and to my eldest brother and sister's place. No matter how difficult it is, I must scrape together twenty thousand yuan for me." Bai Ying went out without looking back, then shouted in the courtyard, "You go to your mother's place and bring the child back."

The next evening, Zhou Andong, Yao Jun, and Tang Wenjuan, along with Chen Zhaoru and his wife, took their children and went to Dicos to have a wonderful meal together.

Next, Zhou Andong began to prepare for the beverage factory, and the news of forming a group company also spread like wildfire.

Whether it was the leadership of the main factory or the branch factories, everyone was restless, pondering all day long about who could enter the board of directors, who would become the company's general manager, and whether the factory director would continue to concurrently serve as the general manager.

While these guys were pondering, they were full of energy, wandering around the workshops all day, keeping an eye on production. They got up earlier than chickens, slept later than dogs, ate less than pigs, and worked more than donkeys, all to show off themselves.

On July 8th, Jiangzhou was filled with lightning and thunder, and a torrential rain poured down, while the temperature in Jingcheng reached 36 degrees. The sun overhead could bake people until they sweated oil, and there were far fewer pedestrians on the streets than usual.

At three in the afternoon, an international flight landed at Jingcheng International Airport. Twenty minutes later, Jiang Yuping, wearing a tight short skirt and sunglasses, walked out of the exit, arm-in-arm with a foreigner.

Beside them was also a Chinese-American man, in his thirties, also wearing sunglasses and dressed in a gray casual outfit.

"Sister, Cousin!"

Jiang Yuyue jumped up and down, waving and shouting. But when she saw Jiang Yuping arm-in-arm with a foreigner, the smile on her face immediately disappeared, and then it returned to normal.

Cousin Zhao Hongxing took off his sunglasses, revealing a face with sharp angles: "Yuyue, haven't seen you for many years, you've become so beautiful. If you hadn't shouted just now, I wouldn't have recognized you."

Jiang Yuyue said with a grin: "You, Boss Zhao, are also becoming more and more handsome."

Zhao Hongxing laughed out loud: "It's still our Yuyue who knows how to talk best; I love to hear it."

"You two stop blowing smoke at each other." Jiang Yuping laughed, "Yuyue, let me introduce you, this is Kyle, the deputy general manager of our company. Kyle, this is my younger sister, Jiang Yuyue."

"Beautiful Miss Jiang, very happy to meet you." Kyle bowed slightly like a gentleman and extended his hand.

Jiang Yuyue shook hands with Kyle, and what surprised her was that this foreigner actually spoke Chinese, and very fluently at that.

"Mr. Kyle, welcome to China as a guest."

Zhao Hongxing said: "Let's go, it's too hot. I'm covered in sweat right now. Let's hurry to the hotel to take a shower, and then go eat."

At the Kyoto Hotel, Jiang Yuping entered the room, kicked off her high heels, and threw herself onto the bed: "My god, I'm exhausted."

Jiang Yuyue turned on the air conditioner, threw the remote control aside, and sat on the bed: "Tell me, what's going on with that Kyle."

"What do you mean what's going on!" Jiang Yuping climbed up from the bed, "I'm going to take a shower."

Jiang Yuyue stared fixedly at Jiang Yuping, making Jiang Yuping feel a chill: "Alright, I'll tell you, Kyle really is my colleague at the company, but he is pursuing me, and I haven't agreed yet."

Jiang Yuyue said: "You haven't agreed, yet you're so intimate with him, holding his arm."

Jiang Yuping rolled her eyes: "What's so strange about this? Do you think the United States is the same as the domestic scene, feudal, pedantic, and backward?"

Jiang Yuyue snorted: "Don't tell me these useless things, I just want to know if you really want to find a foreigner to marry."

Jiang Yuping was a little angry: "Mind your own business. Besides, what's wrong with marrying a foreigner? Do you know Kyle's family background? His father is a councilman in Atlanta, and his mother is the deputy dean of a hospital. Let me tell you, doctors have a very high status in the United States, let alone a deputy dean."

"It's useless to tell me these things, you should go tell Dad." For some reason, Jiang Yuyue felt very restless inside, "There is one thing I want to tell you, Zhao Jianlong has been arrested."

"What?" Jiang Yuping's face changed: "Brother Long has been arrested? Because of what?"

Jiang Yuyue said: "I only know that he is involved in a fake liquor case, and several people died, which has shocked the whole country."

Besides, he also has some other illegal and criminal matters on him. I don't know the specifics, but anyway, because of him, many officials have been arrested.

Our eldest brother was also implicated by him and was taken away by the investigation team. It was fortunate that there were no interest exchanges, so he escaped a great disaster, but he also has to be transferred from his original post.

And Dad, Zhao Jianlong borrowed more than 20 million from Dad. If it weren't for the brother-in-law..."

"Don't mention that wimp to me!" Jiang Yuping roared reflexively, "I get annoyed when I hear his name. Besides, I've already divorced him. You call him brother-in-law, where does that leave my face?"

"Fine!" Jiang Yuyue said: "I won't call him brother-in-law, and I won't say his name. If it weren't for that Zhou fellow helping, Dad would have been killed by Zhao Jianlong."

"He helped?" Jiang Yuping sneered, "It's simply a joke. Don't gild that wimp's face. Do you think I would believe it?"

"If you don't believe it, then forget it!" Jiang Yuyue was also angry and turned to leave.

"Where are you going?" Jiang Yuping grabbed her sister's arm.

Jiang Yuyue said: "I feel that we have less and less common language, so I'm going out to stay for a while, lest we start fighting."

"Alright, alright, you're really angry." Jiang Yuping chuckled, "As long as you don't mention that wimp to me, I'll listen to whatever you say. Is that okay?"

Jiang Yuyue said with a cold face: "The day after tomorrow, the 10th, the Jiangzhou Intermediate Court will publicly try Zhao Jianlong's case."

Jiang Yuping was stunned, thought for a moment and said: "I'll go home tomorrow, and I can go over the day after tomorrow to see him."
