Chapter 513: Aunt Jing's Thoughts
"Huh? Sister Jing, you don't know?"
Hearing the shock in Liu Jing's voice over the phone, Sun Juan was quite puzzled and asked as if talking to herself, "Isn't Zhou Yuwen your son-in-law?"
This question left Liu Jing unsure of how to answer. She certainly knew that Zhou Yuwen was currently in the limelight, having made a billion in New York. Sun Juan wasn't the first to call about Zhou Yuwen.
After all, Liu Jing used to tell everyone that Zhou Yuwen was her son-in-law, originally intending to introduce him to her business friends. Who could have imagined Zhou Yuwen would develop so quickly, to the point where whenever his reputation rose, people would often call Liu Jing and say, "Oh right, Liu Jing, that young man trading stocks in the United States is your son-in-law, right?"
However, as for building a skyscraper, Liu Jing hadn't heard about it at all.
She wondered what big move Zhou Yuwen was up to lately.
So she replied vaguely, "Didn't I tell you? I handed the business over to those young people long ago. How would I know what they're doing?"
"No, but you should at least find out," Sun Juan said, grinning. Although she came seeking help, it was clear that Liu Jing didn't seem to have a good relationship with her new son-in-law, which made Sun Juan gloat a little.
Liu Jing couldn't be bothered by Sun Juan's tone and simply asked what exactly Sun Juan was calling about.
Unable to avoid yielding under Liu Jing's demand, Sun Juan eventually miserably explained the situation and pleaded with Liu Jing for help.
At this moment, Liu Jing finally learned that Zhou Yuwen was about to build a headquarters in Jinling.
This really caught Liu Jing by surprise, even disbelief. Zhou Yuwen was so young, and despite earning so much money in the United States, Liu Jing hadn't had any thoughts on it since she hadn't paid attention for a long time. But knowing this was happening in Jinling, her territory, it was like Zhou Yuwen, a dragon crossing the river, turning into a local snake. Wouldn't that mean she would see Zhou Yuwen at every event from now on?
The main thing is, as Zhou Yuwen evolves into a local force, he will undoubtedly grow stronger. When attending gatherings and events, never mind encountering him, but even some fair-weather friends around her would often joke, "Hey, isn't that your son-in-law? Aren't you going to say hello?"
Just the thought of it made Liu Jing feel a bit embarrassed.
Sigh, the most uncomfortable thought was that her daughter might end up marrying elsewhere in the future.
In retrospect, Liu Jing felt her daughter had been a bit too impulsive. Zhou Yuwen and Su Qing's relationship was a youthful fling, and only her daughter took it seriously, missing out on a good marriage.
She wondered how her daughter was doing now.
Liu Jing truly felt for her daughter and also felt a sense of guilt toward her. She thought that if she hadn't insisted on her daughter being with Zhou Yuwen at the time, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
However, if there was anyone to blame, it was definitely that someone Yu Jin.
It was Yu Jin who persistently pursued Jiang Xinyi, and Liu Jing feared her daughter would be naive and get deceived, so she strongly recommended Zhou Yuwen, which led to the current situation. It really was that someone's fault.
Despite saying this, Liu Jing thought that having handed the company over to her daughter for so long, she really should find some time to check up on things.
Taking advantage of some free time today, Liu Jing decided to tidy up a bit and go to the company to see her daughter.
Currently, most of the Jiang family business was entrusted to Jiang Xinyi's father, so he was often away and rarely returned. As for the local business in Jinling, Liu Jing had helped look after it before. Now that Jiang Xinyi had developed a sense of ambition, Liu Jing gradually handed it over to her daughter.
As for herself, she enjoyed a leisurely life, shopping and buying clothes whenever she wanted.
So after hanging up the phone, Liu Jing simply tidied up. Although in her forties, Liu Jing had always lived a life of comfort, with a tall and slender figure and no extra fat at her waist, showing no signs of her age. She changed into a purple cheongsam and put on a set of jade jewelry to enhance her look before elegantly stepping out.
The Jiang family's office building was located near Xuanwu Lake Park, constructed at the end of the 20th century, and almost twenty years had passed in the blink of an eye. When it was built, it caused quite a stir, but as time went on and more buildings sprang up around it, the Jiang building gradually faded into the background. Although it had been renovated several times, it inevitably looked old compared to its former grandeur.
When Liu Jing arrived at the company, her influence still lingered. Seeing the old lady come to inspect, the employees all bowed their heads to greet her respectfully, calling her Director Liu.
Some insiders, having heard the news, quickly came out to welcome her, sweetly calling her Sister Jing.
Liu Jing only nodded slightly and asked if Xinyi was at the company.
"Yes, she's here, she's here."
"Sister Jing, let me tell you, Xinyi really takes after you. She's been at the company for several months, always rushing to the front with everything. Recently, she even closed a big deal for us."
Hearing her former subordinates praise her daughter, Liu Jing smiled lightly and nodded, saying, "She still has a lot to learn. You should give her more guidance. Alright, you go ahead, I'll go see Xinyi."
