Chapter 321: Ye Haochen's Frustration
Zhao Xueqing was the scapegoat left by Zhao Hucheng's late wife. Wei Fang was a bit indifferent to her before, and her college living expenses were intermittent. Not to mention buying cosmetics and clothes, sometimes she didn't even have money for food.
At that time, when she was in her freshman year, Ye Haochen was already in his senior year. He created the sweet dessert brand and opened several branches in the university town and throughout China Overseas.
Zhao Xueqing once applied for a job at the East China University store. It was said that they did not recruit part-time workers, but after Ye Haochen heard about Zhao Xueqing's difficulties, he sympathized with her and hired her directly.
Moreover, when she was in college, Ye Haochen took great care of and helped her, and even made her the store manager, and the salary was not low.
It was through the work-study program here that Zhao Xueqing was able to gain a foothold in Zhonghai, live a worry-free life, and successfully complete her studies.
Not only that, Ye Haochen also taught Zhao Xueqing a lot of business methods, and even changed her weak and inferior personality, becoming a good teacher and helpful friend.
…
After graduation, things are not as simple as in school. Everyone has their own difficulties.
Sister Xu didn't ask any more questions, and suddenly smiled mysteriously and said, "But Qing'er, do you know that Ye Haochen actually likes you!"
"What are you kidding me about? I'm a country girl from a small place in Linzhou. How could he like me?" Zhao Xueqing didn't believe it at all.
"You don't know, one time it rained heavily, and he saw you in the store without an umbrella, waiting for the rain to stop under the tree on the roadside... He asked me if I had brought an umbrella. I said I did, and he said I did.
Use his umbrella too, leave the umbrella to me, then rush out, use your windbreaker to block the rain, and run back to school with you..." Sister Xu said with a smile.
"Haha, what does this mean? Maybe he just likes to get wet in the rain!" Zhao Xueqing said with a slight smile, with a hint of unnaturalness on her face.
He is very good, has a broad vision, extraordinary abilities, and is very decent in dealing with people. He is a popular figure in the school. Many female students liked him back then and was known as the most handsome senior. Now he has become a big entrepreneur and is recognized by everyone.
Diamond kings, successful people.
But let's just say that Ye Haochen didn't clarify this relationship back then. Even if he did, she wouldn't regret being with Jiang Tian.
In her mind, no one can compare with Jiang Tian. You are good, you are suave and unrestrained, you have a good family background, and you have outstanding abilities. These are all very good, but I just don't like them.
Zhao Xueqing no longer asked anything about Ye Haochen.
Sister Xu started to show off her life over the years.
High salary, flying around the world every day, married to a second-generation rich man with tens of millions of assets, bought a big house in Xuhui District, and the BMW SUV outside also belongs to her...
But Sister Xu introduced her in detail: "Ye Haochen is very powerful now. If you were with him back then, you would definitely fly up a branch and become a phoenix!"
"His father is now the mayor of Zhonghai City, and he is the leader of many rich second-generation princes in Zhonghai."
"Our Zhicheng Investment specializes in venture capital, investing in high-tech companies, and then packaging them to be listed in Hong Kong and overseas! It must be worth tens of billions! This kind of business is a money grab!"
"Do you know Penguin shares? He owns 10% of the largest instant messaging software in China. It is said that it will be listed in five years. By then, he will
They are China’s new rich!”
"You don't know how majestic Brother Ye is. Last time I accompanied Brother Ye to meet with a rich man in Yanjing to discuss some cooperation matters. During the dinner, the son of the rich man made a move on me. Brother Ye gave it to him directly
A slap in the face. Guess what? Do you think that boss will explode? Wrong, he was so frightened that he almost cried, and even asked his son to apologize to me. How powerful that rich man is, his uncle was once a deputy national leader, and he
He is also a regular on the Forbes rich list!"
She also kept saying that Ye Haochen must have had a crush on Zhao Xueqing back then, and she regretted that Zhao Xueqing missed Ye Haochen.
While Jiang Waner was eating the dessert, she smiled disdainfully and said, "Aunt Xu, it's not good for you to do this. She's already married!"
"Ah? Who is she?" Sister Xu was stunned for a moment and said with a smile.
"This is my husband's cousin, her name is Jiang Waner!"
"You're a kid! Don't interrupt when you're talking!" Sister Xu pinched Jiang Waner's face, causing her to roll her eyes wildly.
Seeing that Zhao Xueqing had become a little cold, Sister Xu smiled and said: "You are married, how are you doing? Are you happy?"
"Well, my husband is very good...and very good to me!" Zhao Xueqing said with a smile.
"Married? That's such a shame!"
Sister Xu had also heard that Zhao Xueqing's marriage was not very happy. She had just pretended not to know about it before.
…
Zhao Xueqing looked at the time and said with a smile: "Okay, Sister Xu, my plane is leaving, let's talk next time!"
"I send you!"
Sister Xu quickly stood up, sent Zhao Xueqing out, and opened the door of the Mercedes-Benz SUV.
"That's not good, you're still at work, it's too troublesome for you, I just want to take a taxi!" Zhao Xueqing smiled a little embarrassed.
"No trouble!" Sister Xu smiled slightly and pushed Jiang Waner and Zhao Xueting into the car.
Arrive at China Overseas International Airport.
Seeing Sister Xu also taking out her ticket and boarding pass, Zhao Xueqing was stunned and said, "Why don't you..."
"Haha, actually, I am also going to Xingzhou for a business trip, and I am going with Ye Haochen!"
Sister Xu smiled slyly and said, "Are you looking forward to it or not?"
"What to expect?"
Zhao Xueqing frowned and said: "However, I am quite surprised that things turned out to be such a coincidence!"
Sister Xu rolled her eyes at her and said to herself, "Just pretend. Can your good-for-nothing husband stop your admiration for Ye Haochen?"
Back then, you were just a follower behind him. But now, he has reached a higher level.
…
Arrive at the boarding gate.
I saw a group of rich second-generation people from Zhonghai standing there chatting and laughing, surrounded by a handsome and upright young man.
Ye Haochen's father is Ye Weihao, the mayor of Zhonghai, and his grandfather is Ye Qide, a leading economist. He presided over the completion of China's first "Securities Law". He is also doing well in the investment industry, with an annual compound rate of return of 1oo%.
Naturally, he was admired by a group of friends.
They talked about very high-end topics, which were basically industry trends, opportunities and risks in emerging markets in Southeast Asia, listing in the United States and Hong Kong, etc.
Zhao Xueqing did not rush up to say hello, but stood aside and teased Jiang Waner with her head down.
She even heard a second-generation rich man say that Ye Haochen bought a sea-view villa worth 300 million in Xingzhou, and also spent tens of millions on a yacht.
A second-generation rich man said with envy on his face: "Has your Zhicheng Investment financial report come out this year? Do you have any plans to expand business in Southeast Asia? That's an international financial giant!"
Ye Haochen also smiled and said: "How can my father have so much energy? I am just a partner. As you know, Fang Zhanbo, a professor of finance in Hong Kong Island, they now want to play in Southeast Asia and build a Southeast Asian financial revitalization
Society, he is my grandfather’s junior student who is a visiting scholar in the United States, and he invited me to join, so it’s just a small matter..."
There was a group of middle-aged people sitting on the seats behind them, centered on an old man with white hair.
Zhao Xueqing recognized this old man as Ye Haochen's grandfather Ye Qide.
When there was an opening, Sister Xu went over and pointed at Zhao Xueqing, smiling like a treasure and saying: "Chairman Ye, who do you think is here?"
"Xueqing?"
The moment he saw Zhao Xueqing, Ye Haochen looked surprised. He walked over quickly, shook hands with Zhao Xueqing, and said, "Why did Xu Jie come here so procrastinatingly? It turns out she came with you! What? You are on this flight too."
"Well, I went to Xingzhou to accompany my husband. He was traveling there!" Zhao Xueqing said with a smile.
"Oh, I see..." Ye Haochen looked at Zhao Xueqing with a complicated expression.
She was seen wearing a short white windbreaker, a white shirt and silk black leggings nine-point pants, with a bit of weak, boneless white ankles exposed between the high heels.
Although very simple, it can be seen that the tailoring is decent and the stitching is dense, so they should be from a very good brand.
But for some reason, when he saw this well-behaved girl who followed him in college, he felt that she had an extraordinary temperament, and she was exquisitely beautiful with a hint of charm, which made him feel very moved.
"It's a coincidence that you are also going to Xingzhou. In addition to business activities, I also plan to spend a few days there. When we do that, has your phone number changed?" Ye Haochen asked.
"It hasn't changed. But let's see when the time comes. I also have a lot of things to do and I may not have time!" Zhao Xueqing said with a smile.
"Oh, well, let's take a look then!" Ye Haochen glanced at Zhao Xueqing in surprise.
A few years ago, as soon as he arrived at East China University, Zhao Xueqing would always ask him to meet, following behind like a follower, reporting on her work, asking him to answer questions about her life and studies... But this time
, I took the initiative to invite him, but she was lukewarm.
I can no longer see the admiration in her eyes and the blush on her pretty face. Is it because she is married?
No, I heard that her classmates said that her husband is a playboy and his marriage is very unhappy...
For some reason, he felt some reluctance in his heart.
Ye Haochen was silent for a moment, then smiled and said: "My dad wants me to move the company abroad, saying that there are more opportunities in emerging markets here... In the future, it won't be so easy for us to meet each other!"
Zhao Xueqing looked at him in astonishment.
Seeing her expression, Ye Haochen felt a little proud, and a sense of accomplishment gradually emerged.
But after a brief silence, Zhao Xueqing smiled and said: "How can you? You haven't returned to China yet? If you want to go to Jinling for business, we can still meet. Then I will introduce my husband to you.
Knowledge will help your career!"
"Really? Haha..." Ye Haochen's smile was a little stiff.
What a polite tone. Also, your husband will help my career? What does this mean? There are only a handful of young people in China who can help me!
Zhao Xueqing looked at the boarding gate and boarded the plane.
She pulled Jiang Wan'er away and said calmly: "Senior Ye, you are so awesome! Everyone, come on!"
"Well, it's time to board the plane!"
Ye Haochen looked at her back without looking back, feeling an indelible feeling of unwillingness and loneliness in his heart.
She didn’t even ask me which country I was going to...
This "is so awesome", please don't be too perfunctory, okay?
Moreover, from beginning to end, she kept looking in the southeast direction. Was she looking forward to meeting her husband?
He wasn't sure about this, but what he was sure of was that what she expected had nothing to do with him.
Chapter completed!
