Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

The meal ended in a cheerful atmosphere amidst the two Americans' astonishment.

Lawrence was friends with Kuang Zhihong and had been a guest at Kuang Zhihong's home, where he had eaten some Chinese food.

He wasn't very familiar with using chopsticks, but he was alright.

Bronson was eating Chinese food for the first time, which completely astonished this country bumpkin.

The sentence he said most often was that he used to eat nothing but dog poop.

He eventually threw away his chopsticks and ate with a fork and spoon.

There's no way around it, there are just too many competitors at the table.

He Yuzhu's culinary skills are absolutely comparable to those of a master chef. The ingredients he uses are treated with spiritual spring water, which further enhances the aroma of his dishes.

Even Zhao Anbang and his group had never tasted such delicious food.

They knew the portion sizes of the dishes better than the two Americans, and they ate without any restraint.

After finishing their meal, the group used bread to wipe the plates clean.

"Boss, after eating your food, I can't eat anything else."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "That's the best compliment I've ever heard."

“No, I’m speaking from the heart,” Bronson said firmly.

The group went into the living room, where a servant brought them coffee.

He Yuzhu doesn't like coffee, so he makes his own tea. He even bought this tea set from a local Chinese person.

After exchanging a few words, He Yuzhu explained his purpose for the day.

"Liguo, I would like to invite you to join my company and help me manage our business in the United States."

On the way there, He Yuanting did not tell them the purpose of her trip.

Hearing He Yuzhu's question, Jiang Liguo was somewhat surprised. He first glanced at He Yuanting in surprise, then saw the encouraging look in her eyes.

He quickly realized that this was a test for him.

If he wants to join He Yuzhu's company, he must pass this test.

He had just learned about the size of He Yuzhu's investment company.

Jiang Liguo was not opposed to joining He Yuzhu's company.

He quickly provided his answer.

Lawrence, who was standing to the side, knew that this was an employee of his company and listened very attentively to his answer.

After hearing this, he smiled with satisfaction.

He Yuzhu was also satisfied with Jiang Liguo's answer, although it was somewhat immature and lacked perspective.

But that's not his problem.

"Liguo, welcome to the company."

This sentence was spoken by He Yuzhu in Chinese.

Then it was Zhao Anbang's turn. After He Yuzhu shared some insights and predictions about computer trends, he agreed.

He Yuzhu didn't forget Zhou Wenpeng either, and also took the opportunity to chat with the two of them for a bit.

After Lawrence and Bronson left, He Yuzhu had a heart-to-heart talk with the three of them.

“Liguo, your task is the most important. I hope you can help me keep an eye on the American companies.”

Jiang Liguo understood He Yuzhu's meaning and readily agreed.

"Uncle He, don't worry. I guarantee I'll complete the mission."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's not that serious. I'm just letting you join the company so you can be my representative."

We are all Chinese, so communication is relatively easy.

Besides the investment company, I have another task for you.

"Uncle, please speak."

He Yuzhu said, "I heard from Yuanting that you like basketball. That's why I asked you to do something related to basketball."

Jiang Liguo already knows about the agency's situation. He had a good chat with Bronson earlier.

"No problem. Basketball is one of my hobbies, and being able to participate in a basketball agency is an opportunity I've always dreamed of."

"Your motives are impure; you want to use the agency to chase after celebrities," Zhou Wenpeng ruthlessly exposed his intentions.

Jiang Liguo wasn't embarrassed and readily admitted, "I just went to chase after celebrities, so what?" He Yuzhu didn't interrupt their banter and waited for them to stop before continuing.

“You just talked to Bronson, what are your thoughts on him?”

Jiang Liguo thought for a while and said, "Bronson is a good person, but I think he lacks a bit in terms of basketball vision."

The player he had on the team who was a substitute in the NBA wasn't technically skilled, and more importantly, he didn't have the right mentality.

I didn't think he could perform, but Brunson didn't see the problem.

He Yuzhu also agreed with his answer.

This answer was the same as what Lawrence told He Yuzhu.

"You're right. I've found some players through other channels."

"I'll give you a list then, and you can oversee his contact with those players."

Jiang Liguo didn't ask He Yuzhu where he got the list, but readily agreed.

“Developing stars, this is a good task.”

After finishing their business, He Yuzhu left, giving the space to his classmates.

Only then did Jiang Liguo and the others truly relax.

"Yuanting, is Uncle He really a businessman? Why is his craftsmanship so good?"

He Yuanting didn't hide anything and told them that He Yuzhu was a cook.

"Is Chaoyang Hotel yours? My second aunt ate there once and raved about it."

The more they learned about He Yuzhu, the more they admired him.

Since the three of them had class the next day, they sat for a while and then went back.

Before leaving, Zhao Anbang asked, "When are you going to Boston?"

"The day after tomorrow, I guess," He Yuanting replied.

Zhao Anbang and the other two exchanged glances and said, "We international students in Los Angeles are having a gathering the day after tomorrow. Do you want to come?"

He Yuanting thought that she didn't have anything to do and wanted to help He Yuzhu find some talent, so she agreed.

The three of them then got into a car and returned to school.

After class, Fu Wen went to the school to look for Zhao Anbang. After asking many people, she learned that Zhao Anbang had left with a pretty girl.

Her first guess was He Yuanting. She even regretted telling Zhao Anbang the news.

She had been waiting for Zhao Anbang at the school gate, and saw Zhao Anbang and two others get out of the car.

"Anbang, where have you been?" Fu Wen approached him, pretending to bump into him by chance.

When Zhou Wenpeng and Jiang Liguo saw Fu Wen, they looked at Zhao Anbang with ill intent.

They all knew that Fu Wen had taken a liking to Zhao Anbang and had been pursuing him.

Zhao Anbang could naturally see that he had no feelings for Fu Wen whatsoever.

They were classmates in the same year and knew each other well. He naturally knew how Fu Wen got her study abroad spot.

However, precisely because they were classmates, he couldn't afford to fall out with Fu Wen, so he could only deal with her frequently.

"The three of us went out on some business. What are you doing here?"

"I came out to buy something. That driver from earlier looked familiar. Are you going to see Yuanting?"

"No, I was accompanying Liguo to look for a job, and we ran into her outside." Zhao Anbang reacted quickly and made up an excuse on the spot.

Fu Wen was a smart woman and didn't believe him at all.

She didn't expose them, but said, "Do you know where she lives? They moved out of the hotel a few days ago."

I thought she had already gone to Boston.

“We didn’t ask.”

Since He Yuanting didn't tell them in advance, she naturally didn't want too many people to know where she lived.

Zhao Anbang and his two companions naturally wouldn't tell anyone.

Fu Wen looked helpless as she listened to the three people's answers.

She knew Zhao Anbang understood her feelings, but she didn't know why he wouldn't accept her.

Fu Wen wanted to ask something more, but Zhao Anbang made a few excuses about having drinks and left. (End of Chapter)
