After the divorce, I became a mountain god

When Zhong Yan heard this, he was stunned.

The annual celebration of the top 500 Chinese companies is one of the most important celebrations for entrepreneurs in China.

This grand ceremony is held every three years to select the 500 most powerful companies in China.

Being listed in the Fortune 500 is not only a dazzling honor, but also a symbol of the status, position and strength of the leaders of the listed companies. It is also the dream of all entrepreneurs.

As the saying goes, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier.

The same is true for doing business. Every entrepreneur who failed to be selected wants his or her company to be included in the Fortune 500 list, and the companies that have already been selected want to further improve their rankings, and it would be best if they could be among the top 100 or even top 50!

As we all know, the higher your ranking in status, the more platforms and circles you can access.

Zhong Zhenjiang has been entrenched in Jiangzhou for so many years, and he has long wanted to establish himself in Kyoto and have a place for himself.

As the helmsman of the Zhong family, Zhong Zhenjiang's ideas naturally represent the will of the Zhong family!
In other words, integrating into the circle of powerful people in Kyoto is the most important development plan for the Zhong family in the next step.

As members of the Zhong family, both Zhong Hou and Zhong Yan are working hard for such future planning.

Zhong Yan studies mountain bike racing not only as a personal hobby, but also because she knows that a certain Kyoto boss's circle often uses mountain bike racing as a form of entertainment.

Zhong Yan had just entered this circle, so naturally he wanted to have a chance to show himself and better integrate into it, so as to lay a certain foundation for his family to settle in Kyoto in the future.

Zhong Hou studied this model airplane in order to give it to a Kyoto boss who has the same hobby, in order to have a better relationship. It is said that this boss is one of the special judges of the annual ceremony of the top 500 companies in China!

Thinking of this, Zhong Yan felt a little depressed for a moment.

I was busy with racing because of the Zhong family's settlement in Kyoto, but I didn't expect that my brother Zhong Hou had the same idea.

So, my brother and I are now controlled by Xu Bo'an and Shi Changliang?
There is nothing much to say when you need help from others.

When you should admit your mistake, admit your mistake; when you should be polite, be polite.

Zhong Yan forced a smile with an awkward expression, and said in a flattering tone: "Mr. Shi, I apologize for my rudeness just now. I'm sorry, I neglected you because I didn't recognize your talent. My brother has already criticized me. I hope you can forgive me. I hope you can devote all your energy to prepare this action figure for my brother."

Shi Changliang said in a neither arrogant nor humble manner: "Miss Zhong, you are too polite. Since I already have a contract with Mr. Zhong, I will definitely fulfill it seriously and do what I should do. At the same time, I also hope that Miss Zhong will not force me to do things that are not agreed upon in the contract!"

Zhong Yan smiled awkwardly and replied, "That's right, I went too far. I shouldn't have done that. Please forgive me, Mr. Xu."

Qu Feifan watched Zhong Yan's attitude change drastically from the side, and his mind suddenly made a sudden change.

In this situation, even a fool would know that "the enemy is strong and I am weak" is hitting a wall!

Seeing that Zhong Yan had given in, Qu Feifan was surprised for a moment, then stood up and walked over, following closely and said, "Mr. Xu, this matter is my fault. I made it too difficult for you just now. I was really too eager to recruit talents, so I did such an inappropriate thing and said such unpleasant words. I am very sorry. If you want to blame someone, just blame me. This matter has nothing to do with Miss Zhong."

Xu Boan smiled slightly. Qu Feifan and Zhong Yan did not have the arrogant and domineering character of those dandy young men. Moreover, Chang Liang was very respected by Zhong Hou of the Zhong family. Qu Feifan did not make things difficult for Tang Xiaohu before and after asking Tang Xiaohu about driving on the winding mountain road.

Qu Feifan and Zhong Yan were not bad people after all. Most importantly, these two rich kids had not caused him any substantial harm or annoyance, so Xu Bo'an did not take this minor offense too seriously at all.

Therefore, after hearing Qu Feifan's soft words, Xu Bo'an said calmly: "Okay, I don't have any opinions, but I'm really not interested in the things you mentioned."

Thinking that his brother Zhong Hou had commissioned Shi Changliang to prepare this airplane model for the same purpose, Zhong Yan did not want to make their relationship too strained, lest Shi Changliang be unhappy, so he did not plan to continue pestering Xu Boan.

So, Zhong Yan said politely: "Mr. Xu, I'm really sorry to bother you this time. I heard that you are in the engineering and construction industry, right? It just so happens that our family has a factory that is going to be renovated and expanded, and the project amount is about 50 million. I wonder if you are interested, Mr. Xu. If possible, we can add contact information and discuss it in detail later."

This can be regarded as actively extending an olive branch to Xu Boan and asking for acquaintance. It can also be regarded as a very face-giving way of making friends and expressing apology.

If it had been not long ago, Xu Boan would have definitely accepted this 50 million contract, but today, he was about to leave Dongjiang Erjian, and the contract might not be negotiated before he left. If he accepted it, there would definitely be some tedious matters that he would need to deal with later, so Xu Boan was not tempted at all.

Xu Boan immediately declined, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Zhong. To be honest, I have other work arrangements and do not plan to continue doing this, so I cannot make the decision on this matter."

When Qu Feifan heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, and he immediately interrupted and said, "Mr. Xu, you don't plan to work at Dongjiang Erjian anymore? This is such a coincidence. The construction company under our Qu Group happens to be in need of a strong leader. I wonder if you are willing to consider it."

In Qu Feifan's opinion, Zhong Yan planned to give up because he did not want to offend Shi Changliang. After all, Shi Changliang and Zhong Hou had a cooperative relationship, and she couldn't ruin her brother's business.

But Qu Feifan still wanted to fight for it. If Xu Bo'an was willing to come to work at Qu Group, his identity as the young master of Qu Group would still give him some face.

If Xu Bo'an is willing to help him participate in the racing, and can help Zhong Yan show his face in Kyoto, then the Zhong family might be willing to say a few good words to make Zhong Yan look at him with admiration, thus further improving the relationship between the two, and maybe even getting married!
In this case, it will only be a matter of time before Qu Feifan's family establishes a relationship with the Qu family in Kyoto!
That’s right, the reason why Qu Feifan wanted to please Zhong Yan so much and even wanted to marry him was, firstly, because he liked him, and secondly, because the Qu family in Jiangcheng wanted to curry favor with him!

Of course, it is not just about clinging to the Zhong family, but going one step further and heading towards Kyoto!

In fact, Qu Feifan's family is just a branch of the Qu family in Kyoto.

The Kyoto Qu family is one of the largest families in China, and enjoys a high reputation and voice in China. Over the generations, the various relatives in the family have spread across China and even around the world, with a wide influence.

The Qu Feifan family in Jiangcheng, as the branch of the Qu family that did not achieve great success, had long since drifted away from the main Qu family.

By the time of Qu Feifan's great-grandfather's generation, he had used up all his connections and completely cut off all ties with the Qu family in Kyoto.

But today, with the growth and development of Qu Feifan's family, people of Qu Feifan's father's generation seem to have seen the hope of returning to their family, and are trying their best to promote the great event of recognizing their ancestors and returning to the Qu family.

But this was easier said than done. They finally found out that the Zhong family had a very good relationship with the Qu family in Kyoto. The Zhong family had previously done a favor to an elder of the Qu family, and the two sides had always maintained a very good relationship. That's why Qu Feifan's family wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of being Zhong family's in-laws to reestablish a relationship with the Qu family in Kyoto, and also to lay a good foundation for the next step of tracing their ancestors.

Xu Boan was not interested in the olive branch extended by Qu Feifan.

He left Dongjiang Erjian just for freedom. It would be great if he could do something on his own instead of going back to the workplace and being controlled by others!
If he really had to work like a slave, Xu Boan would never leave Dongjiang Erjian, where he had worked for so many years.

Therefore, Xu Boan smiled and declined again: "Qu..."

Xu Bo settled down for a moment, and was thinking about how to address Qu Feifan appropriately, whether it would be more appropriate to call him Mr. Qu, or to be more distant, when he saw Qu Feifan smiling and saying kindly, "Just call me Feifan."

Xu Boan felt that the two of them were not that familiar with each other, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Qu, I appreciate your kindness, but I don't plan to do related work anymore, and I don't plan to work in the short term."

Qu Feifan was immediately disappointed when he heard this, and said awkwardly: "Well, if you, Mr. Xu, have this idea one day, you must consider my suggestion first. The door of our Jiangcheng Qu Group is always open to you, and you are welcome to join us."

Xu Bo'an is a person who will respect you ten feet if you respect me one foot!
Hearing Qu Feifan's sincerity, Xu Bo'an subconsciously wanted to repay him. For a moment, he casually performed the "Fu De Divination Sutra", and then suddenly frowned slightly.

Qu Feifan was originally paying attention to Xu Boan. When he suddenly saw the change in Xu Boan's face, he thought he had said something wrong.

While I was wondering, I heard Xu Bo'an said seriously: "Mr. Qu, do you often practice driving on the winding road on the hill next to the airport?"

What Xu Boan was talking about was naturally the mountain that he and Qu Feifan's racing team encountered when he drove his pickup truck up the mountain to look for Goshawk that day.

Qu Feifan also knew what Xu Bo'an meant, and nodded immediately, "If there are no special circumstances, we will practice driving there every Monday, Wednesday and Friday!"

Xu Bo'an nodded slowly and said, "It's like this. I once learned some physiognomy from an old gentleman. Based on my immature inference, I suggest that you don't drive your car on the mountain road over there in the next few days!"

Qu Feifan never expected that Xu Bo'an would suddenly change the subject and say such words.

We were obviously discussing professional skills and employment matters, so how come we suddenly ended up talking about physiognomy?
But in order to establish a good relationship with Xu Bo'an, Qu Feifan still patiently pretended to be curious and said, "Oh? I don't know what you mean?"

Xu Boan further explained: "Judging from your current appearance, you will encounter a bloody disaster in the near future!"

Well, in an instant, he went from being a skilled and daring supercar racer to a calculating master on the overpass! This transformation is quite big.

As Xu Boan's topic went deeper, even Shi Changliang and Zhong Yan couldn't help but focus their attention on Xu Boan.

Zhong Yan was even more curious and urged: "Oh? Mr. Xu, I wonder if you have any more specific inferences about the bloody disaster you mentioned?"

Xu Boan explained, "When I was driving along that mountain road that day, I noticed that the rocks on the cliff wall above the mountain road were unstable. It felt like there would be falling rocks and debris. It was at the sharp turn at the highest point. If Mr. Qu was familiar with that road, he would have known it."

Qu Feifan nodded and said, "I have traveled that stretch of road countless times. I can say that I know every bend and every bump there by heart. I also know the place you mentioned, Mr. Xu. We have previously arranged for someone to deal with the unstable rocks above. Thank you for your reminder. I will arrange for someone to go up and pay more attention to it later."

Xu Bo'an nodded and said, "What I said may not be accurate, but it's always right to be careful, don't you think so, Mr. Qu?"

Qu Feifan smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xu, for your advice. I'll keep it in mind. As I said before, if you have any ideas for a job, just let me know anytime."

Xu Boan responded with a smile. After a few words, Xu Boan and Shi Changliang left.

Xu Boan had just come out of the box when he saw Lin Shan and Su Tai looking at him with concern in the corridor. Si Changliang saw that Xu Boan had something to do and did not delay here any longer. He said hello to Xu Boan and left.

Lin Shan and Su Tai talked to Xu Boan with concern, and when they saw that Xu Boan was really fine, they stopped worrying.

As for the specific matters, the two of them naturally would not ask each other. They were all adults, so they still had to maintain the appropriate distance. After all, everyone has some privacy.

Because he drank a little wine today, Xu Boan did not drive. After Lin Shan arranged for someone to send Xu Boan back, Xu Boan took a nap under the influence of alcohol.

After waking up from sleep, Xu Boan habitually observed what was happening inside the bonsai.

After a quick glance, he suddenly discovered that Yan Xiaojiu, the chief constable of Qingmu Mansion, who he had not seen for many days, had come again. Of course, according to what Xu Boan knew, Yan Xiaojiu had already resigned from his post, so his only identity now should be Chen Shishi's younger brother.

At this moment, Yan Xiaojiu was in Chen Shishi's house, and the brother and sister seemed to be discussing returning home.

Chen Shishi's eyes were misty, and she said with longing: "Little brother, I know you are worried, but I haven't been back home for a long time, and I really miss it." (End of this chapter)
