Reborn in 85: Starting with a family split and becoming the richest man, the ungrateful wretch regre

Li Xingran said he inquired about Qian Jianyun's character and felt that he was very capable and his character was acceptable.

Aside from being a bit arrogant, he has no other flaws; he's worth getting to know.

Lu Yang felt that Li Xingran seemed to have matured a lot; he certainly wouldn't have said that before.

The most important thing for him when making friends is compatibility; indeed, environment can change a person.

In his letter, Li Xingran wrote that he had a week off during the summer vacation and could come to Guangzhou to visit him.

He will bring Qian Jinyun along so they can get to know each other.

Lu Yang glanced at the address on the letter. It had been mailed before the holiday, so Li Xingran should be arriving soon.

He made a phone call and told Qian Jianyun about it.

Qian Jianyun was indeed very happy: "I admire his courage to go to military school. I can't endure hardship, so I can only study in civilian life."

“Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. Xingran has a somewhat aloof personality. He might not be able to handle interpersonal relationships like you do.”

Lu Yang specifically reminded him, just in case Qian Jianyun became too familiar with him.

Li Xingran felt a little awkward, since the two of them didn't know each other.

Qian Jianyun immediately understood Lu Yang's meaning and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yang thought for a moment and decided to arrange for Qian Jianyun and Li Xingran to meet at his restaurant, which offered better privacy.

The following afternoon, Li Xingran called Lu Yang to pick him up.

When Lu Yang drove to the train station, Li Xingran was already outside the station, sitting on her suitcase and waiting.

Two years had passed, and Li Xingran had become much stronger, with a more resolute look in his eyes.

Lu Yang ran over, and the two hugged. After being apart for so long, they felt they had a lot to say, but for a moment they didn't know what to say.

Lu Yang simply pulled Li Xingran into the car, put the suitcase in the trunk, and drove straight to his restaurant.

“I just called Qian Jianyun, and he said he would wait for us at the restaurant. He has high emotional intelligence, so you definitely won’t feel uncomfortable around him.”

Lu Yang offered words of comfort in advance.

Li Xingran smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know him a little. My grandfather also encourages me to make more friends, especially people like Qian Jianyun."

Lu Yang couldn't help but smile awkwardly; indeed, connections are very important.

Without Li Xingran's help, it would have been almost impossible for him to climb up to someone like Qian Jianyun.

Just like Han Bingcheng, who is clearly in the same circle as these two.

Even Lu Yang could sense the disdain in Qian Jianyun when he mentioned Han Bingcheng.

The two arrived at the restaurant quickly, and Qian Jianyun was already waiting in the private room, faster than he expected.

After Lu Yang and Li Xingran entered, Qian Jianyun immediately stood up and looked at Li Xingran with a smile, saying, "Seeing is believing. You look very much like Grandpa Li, especially in stature. It's probably because we're both soldiers."

Li Xingran smiled. Although his grandfather was not very responsible towards his grandmother, he had to admit that his grandfather treated him well.

Therefore, in his heart, his grandfather is still a hero who defends the country.

Someone immediately remarked that he resembled his grandfather, which made him feel a sense of goodwill towards them.

He sat down with a smile next to Qian Jianyun and Lu Yang and said, "You flatter me. I can't compare to my grandfather. It's already a blessing for me to resemble him by two or three points."

The two chatted about these topics, with Lu Yang acting as a guest.

After a few rounds of drinks, the three became acquainted; friendships between men are often forged over drinks.

People from similar family backgrounds and upbringing naturally get along better because they have more in common.

Lu Yang chimed in from time to time, and the atmosphere remained fairly lively.

Qian Jianyun kept saying that he and Li were kindred spirits.

If he had known earlier that Li Xingran and he had gone to the same school, he would have gone to befriend Li Xingren long ago.

The three of them chatted for an afternoon and all got a little tipsy.

Qian Jianyun and Li Xingran exchanged contact information, and then Qian Jianyun was picked up by his family's driver.

Lu Yang then helped Li Xingran to his home.

Li Xingran lay on the bed and laughed, saying, "This guy can turn a straw into a gold bar; most people can't handle that."

Lu Yang couldn't help but chuckle dryly; he had long since noticed Qian Jianyun's two-faced nature.

But everyone has their own way of surviving, and as long as you don't hurt others, it's not a mistake.

The two chatted about their recent lives over the past two years, and eventually fell asleep.

Li Xingran only stayed here for two days before returning to Kyoto with Qian Jianyun.

He needs to go back to visit his grandfather and parents, but his vacation is limited and he can't spend the whole time in Guangzhou.

Qian Jianyun naturally wanted to get to know him better, so he went along, using the excuse of visiting his grandfather.

Lu Yang continued to keep an eye on the business in Guangzhou, and in the past two days he even took some time to call the provincial capital.

Li Chen and Cheng Lin both said that everything over there was relatively calm, and He Yunwei seemed to have given up on dealing with them, not making any moves at all.

They checked all the building materials and found nothing wrong with them.

This puzzled Lu Yang, as he didn't think He Yunwei was the type to back down at the first sign of trouble.

He couldn't possibly give up on this project; he might be plotting something bad.

So as soon as Qian Jianyun returned, he immediately went back to the provincial capital to keep an eye on He Yunwei and see what kind of trouble this guy was up to.

After waiting for three days, Qian Jianyun finally returned from Kyoto.

Lu Yang told him and then drove back to the provincial capital.

As he left his home and drove along Central Avenue in Guangzhou, he saw two familiar figures.

One of them was Mu Jiaojiao, whom he discovered through his own investigation. She was Han Bingcheng's lover. The other person was Lu Qing.

He was somewhat surprised, thinking that Lu Qing had already left with Shen Xuwen.

Unexpectedly, she did not leave Guangzhou and continued to hang out with Han Jiaojiao.

The two walked into Yangcheng Shopping Mall one after the other. Most of the items sold in the mall were women's clothing and women's products.

The two were clearly there to go shopping, but they both had cold expressions and seemed to be in a bad mood.

Lu Yang was puzzled, but he didn't want to strike up a conversation with Lu Qing.

He stepped on the gas, drove through the street, and headed towards the highway.

As if sensing something, Lu Qing turned her head to look in the direction Lu Yang's car had left, only to see the rear of the car.

"Little sister, what are you looking at?"

Mu Jiaojiao looked at Lu Qing with a half-smile and asked.

A few days ago, she threatened Lu Qing that if she didn't come back with her, she would report her to the police station.

After being forced to return by her, Lu Qing never gave her a kind look again.

She never cared what Lu Qing thought of her; all she cared about from beginning to end was Han Bingcheng's attitude.

After hearing her words, Lu Qing did not react at all, and turned her gaze away as she walked into the mall.

Lu Qing knew perfectly well that these two people wanted to give her away like a kitten or puppy.

She felt incredibly frustrated that she had to take care of herself first.
