~10 min read 1,871 words

The bodyguard said, taking out his phone and handing it to Li Fujiang: "However, we have already called a few times, it has always been turned off, and our people didn't find him at Jiangcheng Hospital either; we currently don't know where Xu Tian is."

"Mm."

Li Fujiang took the phone and still tried to dial.

"The number you have dialed is powered off..."

Without any surprise, the mechanical, cold voice came from the phone.

Li Fujiang frowned slightly: "You go prepare immediately, I want to go to Jiangcheng to visit Mr. Xu in person."

Now that Wu Rong refused to admit to the poisoning, the only one who could save Li Dong was Xu Tian.

"Okay!"

Just as the bodyguard was about to leave to carry out the order, Li Fujiang seemed to suddenly think of something and asked: "What does the Xu Corporation do?"

"I don't know much about Jiangcheng's affairs, but I heard that Assistant Xiao Zhou happens to be from Jiangcheng, and he mentioned the Xu Group before, he should know more."

Li Fujiang nodded slightly: "Help me call him over."

Soon, a young man in a shirt walked in.

After entering, he said cautiously: "Li Zong, did you call me for something?"

"Xiao Zhou, I heard you are from Jiangcheng, are you familiar with the Xu Corporation there?" Li Fujiang asked.

Zhou Shaoming's eyes lit up instantly: "Familiar! The Xu Corporation is a quite famous real estate company over there."

"Li Zong, I am a classmate of the current boss of that Xu Corporation, Xu Rixin! Does our company have any cooperation with the Xu Corporation?"

"If there is a need, I can be responsible for communication!"

He was indeed a classmate of Xu Rixin.

Back in school, Xu Rixin was a rich second generation, and he was the lackey who followed behind Xu Rixin to flatter him.

If the Fujiang Group and the Xu Corporation had cooperation, then the time for him to hold his head high would have arrived.

Half an hour later, Zhou Shaoming walked out of the office with an excited smile on his face.

After hearing that he was not only from Jiangcheng but also a classmate of Xu Rixin, Li Fujiang immediately handed over the matter of contacting the Xu Corporation to him entirely!

Listening to Li Fujiang's tone, Zhou Shaoming felt that he seemed to have the intention of befriending the young master of the Xu family.

He automatically ignored the adopted son Xu Tian, and automatically assumed that the person Li Zong Fujiang wanted to befriend was Xu Rixin.

After returning to his workstation, Zhou Shaoming dialed Xu Rixin's number without stopping.

Not much time had passed since the last class reunion, so he still had Xu Rixin's number.

Soon, Xu Rixin's indifferent voice came from the phone:

"Shaoming, why did you suddenly think of calling me? Is there anything important?"

Zhou Shaoming, as if he didn't hear the "speak if you have something to say, get lost if you don't" meaning in Xu Rixin's words, smiled and spoke:

"Xinge, it's nothing major, just that I recommended your company to my president. Our president wants to get to know you."

"Wants to get to know me?"

Xu Rixin on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly asked: "Shaoming, what is your group called?"

"Fujiang Group!" Zhou Shaoming said with a smile.

"What?!"

"Fujiang Group!"

Xu Rixin, who had been somewhat indifferent, stood up from his seat abruptly: "Shaoming, you aren't joking with me, are you?"

"Of course not. To tell you the truth, I am now the assistant to our group's president!"

"Shaoming, I didn't expect that you've been keeping a low profile these years and have actually become the assistant to the vice president of the Fujiang Group, impressive!"

After Xu Rixin finished speaking, he suddenly realized something.

Instantly, his breathing became a bit rapid: "Shaoming, did you just say your president wants to get to know me?"

"Yes! Li Zong happens to have business in Jiangcheng, and hearing that we have a very good relationship, he wants to see you; I'll arrange for you to have a meal tonight."

"No need, no need, I'll just go to the provincial capital, how can I trouble Li Zong to come to my backwater place in person?" Xu Rixin hurriedly said.

"Oh, these are all small matters; Li Zong can also inspect your company when he goes over! Maybe he can give you a few more suitable projects," Zhou Shaoming said.

Hearing this, Xu Rixin's breathing became even more rapid.

"Okay, I'll go prepare properly right now!"

After Xu Rixin hung up the phone, he felt like he was dreaming.

And what kind of person was Li Fujiang?

That was a big shot in the top ten of Jiang Province's wealth, an existence he could only look up to!

He had no doubt that if he could get on Li Fujiang's line, his rise to prosperity would be just around the corner!

Soon, Xu Rixin suppressed the thoughts in his heart and immediately called Xu Pingfeng.

When Xu Pingfeng heard that the famous entrepreneur Li Fujiang from Jiang Province was coming to Jiangcheng and wanted to invite their whole family to dinner, he was even more shocked than Xu Rixin!

"Xin'er, your classmate wouldn't be lying to you, would he?"

"No, although that classmate of mine doesn't have much ability, he wouldn't lie to me about this kind of thing."

"That's good. Xin'er, being able to get such an opportunity is also your ability; your mother and I both believe that you will never be an ordinary person in the future, that waste Xu Tian isn't even worthy of carrying your shoes in the future!"

"Heh, Xu Tian? What does he have to compare with me? Dad, don't worry, I will perform well in front of Li Zong; as for Xu Tian, call him too, without him as a rotten leaf, how can my excellence be set off?"

"Good, this can also be considered the last bit of utility value for that waste before being kicked out of the Xu family."

Six o'clock in the afternoon.

The Xu family waited at the front door of their house half an hour early.

To prevent Xu Tian from escaping, several bodyguards were staring fixedly around the door.

"Xin'er, your father and I coming is enough, you still insisted on us bringing that waste Xu Tian, isn't this losing face for you?"

Yang Rongjuan swept a glance at Xu Tian with some displeasure.

Ever since they tore off the mask with Xu Tian, her attitude toward Xu Tian had returned to the way it was before.

As she spoke, Yang Rongjuan's gaze swept toward Xu Tian and said:

"Xu Tian, look at your big brother, he's about the same age as you, and he's already connected with a famous entrepreneur in the province; look at you, you're over twenty, and you're still a waste who hasn't accomplished anything."

"If you lose face in front of Li Zong later, I'll make you look good!"

Xu Tian looked at Yang Rongjuan indifferently and said nothing.

Originally, he didn't want to be with the Xu Pingfeng family, but after hearing that it was Li Fujiang who invited the Xu family to dinner, he changed his mind.

In his memory, whether in his previous life or this one, Xu Rixin never had any intersection with Li Fujiang.

Without accident, Li Fujiang being able to come to the Xu family in person was because he listened to his words and went home to check the surveillance.

In other words, this time Li Fujiang was here to find him.

And as long as Li Fujiang came, he would have the capital to confront the Xu family.

However, the group waited and waited, and after waiting for more than half an hour, Xu Rixin didn't wait for Li Fujiang and the others, but instead waited for a call from Zhou Shaoming.

"Xinge, sorry, our car broke down on the road, I'm afraid we won't be able to make it for a while."

"The car broke down?"

Xu Rixin frowned slightly: "Is Li Zong okay?"

"Li Zong is fine. He asked me to say sorry to you; if it's still early when we arrive in Jiangcheng, we will come to visit," Zhou Shaoming said.

"It's fine, it's fine, we aren't in a hurry; tell Li Zong, if there's anything he needs help with, call me anytime."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Rixin told the Xu Pingfeng couple about Li Fujiang's situation.

Xu Pingfeng sighed: "Let's go upstairs first."

Just as Xu Tian was being taken upstairs by the bodyguards, Yang Rongjuan happened to receive a call.

Xu Tian vaguely heard Yang Rongjuan mention the word 'divorce' and couldn't help but frown.

He felt that this call had something to do with him, but before he could continue listening, he was forcibly taken into the room by the bodyguards behind him.

Downstairs, after Yang Rongjuan finished the call, she came to Xu Pingfeng's side with a beaming face and sat down: "Pingfeng, that matter is done, Lawyer Wu has agreed to meet; we just need to go over and get the divorce agreement."

Xu Pingfeng nodded, "Mm, when is he coming?"

"Ten minutes later," Yang Rongjuan replied with a smile.

Xu Rixin, who was on the side, heard his parents' words and was confused, couldn't help but be suspicious, and said: "Mom and Dad, what are you talking about?"

"Good things."

Yang Rongjuan smiled: "Isn't Xu Tian divorcing Tang Bingyan? Tang Bingyan left all her assets in Jiangcheng to Xu Tian, and Xu Tian refuses to sign the divorce agreement no matter what; your father and I were discussing, if Xu Tian doesn't sign, we will tell the lawyer directly that he agreed, and we'll see if we can sign it ourselves."

Xu Rixin suddenly realized, but although Yang Rongjuan said it very well, he always felt uneasy: "Mom, Xu Tian doesn't agree to the divorce, can this work?"

"What's there to work or not work about this? Your father and I are also Xu Tian's parents; since ancient times, the words of matchmakers, marriage is a major life event, which one isn't decided by parents? Even if Xu Tian doesn't agree, he has to agree!" Yang Rongjuan said.

About an hour later, after Xu Pingfeng and Yang Rongjuan met Tang Bingyan's lawyer outside the front door, they returned with a folder.

Xu Rixin, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Dad, Mom, how did it go?"

Yang Rongjuan's expression was somewhat unpleasant.

"The divorce agreement has been obtained; as long as Xu Tian signs this, all of Tang Bingyan's assets in Jiangcheng can be transferred over immediately."

Xu Rixin wasn't too surprised; this kind of thing naturally required Xu Tian himself to sign.

"On the way back, your father and I discussed it; since Xu Tian must sign, then let Xu Tian sign!"

Yang Rongjuan sat on the sofa with a straight face: "No matter what today, Xu Tian must sign the papers!" ===== CHAPTER 21 =====
