Chapter 2536 It turns out Jiang Wan had planned this all along.

Chapter 2536

Yuan Xiaohua was somewhat surprised, not expecting Qiao Ya to say such a thing.

But he became interested and hurriedly asked, "Where can we find it?"

Qiao Ya replied, "This person is in Jiang Wan's construction team."

“I heard from Jiang Wan that when she was running a construction company and undertaking projects, she had her eye on that person.”

"It is precisely because he is an infrastructure fanatic, and has unique insights and technologies in infrastructure."

"So Jiang Wan spent a lot of money to bring him over from abroad, and now he's in her construction team."

“If the country needs him, Jiang Wan is willing to transfer him out, but it can only be a temporary transfer.”

Yuan Xiaohua was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then burst into laughter.

She shook her head helplessly and said, "I guess only Jiang Wan would dare to so blatantly try to steal my man."

She stroked her chin thoughtfully for a moment and asked, "You want this project and want me to announce it publicly, is it to set a trap for that old bastard Qiao Zhendong?"

Qiao Ya nodded: "Yes, we came here this time to talk to you face to face and see if we can set a trap for Qiao Zhendong."

"Make him believe that this project is feasible."

Yuan Xiaohua was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, absolutely no problem."

"I'll report to my superiors right now and release the information. We'll do our best to cooperate with whatever you need us to do."

"However, if such a message is issued at the national level, it cannot be done simply by saying it."

“We also need to sign a letter of intent for the project. With this letter of intent, you can legitimately discuss cooperation with us.”

"Of course, a letter of intent does not represent a contract, and the contract may not ultimately be awarded to you."

Qiao Ya was overjoyed and quickly nodded, saying, "I understand. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

The two sides had a pleasant conversation. Yuan Xiaohua still had things to do, so she asked her subordinates to treat the two to a meal at a restaurant. After the meal, she arranged for them to stay overnight.

Because they needed to lull the Qiao family into a false sense of security, Qiao Ya and Hai Jing couldn't leave so quickly. They planned to stay here for three to five days before going back.

At this moment, Qiao Ya asked Hai Jing, "Do you want to go home and take a look?"

Hai Jing hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to go back, but I'm afraid there won't be enough time."

"Anyway, nothing important is happening on our side anymore," Joa said.

"It only takes two or three hours by plane, enough for a round trip."

Hai Jing thought it made sense, so after the two finished their meal, they took the last flight back to Yanjing that very night.

Around 2 a.m., the two were already standing outside their home.

Haijing had been worried for a while that something might have happened at home.

Now that I'm finally back, seeing the warm light in the villa, my heart is finally at ease.

He hurriedly banged on the door.

Soon, Hai Rongtian came out to open the door and was shocked to see that it was them returning.

Hai Jing was even more surprised, never expecting that his father would actually return, and what surprised him even more was that Qiao Liancheng was also there.

He asked with some surprise, "When did you get back?"

Qiao Liancheng replied, "I came back last night."

After entering the room, Joa went straight to see the two children.

Haijing and Qiaoya were still hungry, so Jia Haixia hurriedly went to the kitchen to make noodles for them.

The family sat together, having dinner with Qiao Ya and Hai Jing.

Hai Rongtian felt a warm glow in his heart as he looked at the happy family.

Her eyes were also a little red.

Seeing his appearance, Jia Haixia asked curiously, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Hai Rongtian shook his head and said to Jia Haixia:

“When I was a brigade commander, I was so busy every day that I felt very fulfilled.”

"I feel a great sense of accomplishment, especially when my subordinates call me brigade commander."

"They're even proud of it!"

"But back then, I always felt cold and unwelcoming when I got home."

"The way Haijing looked at me was all admiration and respect, with little warmth in her eyes."

"Even you treat me with great respect, but lack warmth."

"Back then, I thought this was what home was like."

"I didn't even have much expectation, but now I realize how wrong I was back then."

Jia Haixia smiled gently and said, "Qiao Liancheng's wife hasn't come back yet. If she were here, our family would be completely complete."

He paused, looked at the sea view, and said, "This time I'm back, I'll hold a wedding for you two!"

Hai Jing shook his head and refused: "It's not necessary for now. We plan to hold the wedding in Hong Kong. After this project is completed and Qiao Zhendong's matter is resolved, we will hold a grand wedding in Hong Kong."

"In Hong Kong, you have to be high-profile when doing these things; only in this way can you gain a foothold among the major wealthy families."

"I will continue to do business in Hong Kong and meet many people. So these steps cannot be skipped."

Hai Rongtian naturally understood this principle.

He firmly supported her, saying, "Go ahead and do it. Although I don't have much money, I support you in spirit."

This remark made the whole family laugh.

They originally planned to stay at home for three days and then leave.

The next day, Haijing took Qiaoya for a walk around the area. As soon as they stepped out of the residential compound, they saw an old friend.

The visitor was named Li Ping, a classmate of Haijing from middle school.

He originally lived in the military family compound, but after his father retired, he was no longer eligible to live there, so his whole family moved out.

However, Li Ping and Bai Ji are friends, and Bai Ji is Hai Jing's former fiancée.

Upon seeing the sea view, Li Ping hurried over to greet him, "It's been so long! Where have you been lately?"

"I heard you're still in the army."

Haijing nodded in agreement.

After exchanging a few brief pleasantries, Li Ping asked, "Which military region are you in now? What mission are you on?"

Hai Jing said, "I'm sorry, this is a military secret, I can't say."

Upon hearing this, Li Ping curled his lip, seemingly not taking it seriously, but inwardly he felt a bit contempt.

In his view, what skills could a lowly soldier possibly have? Even if he became a regimental commander or even a brigade commander, how much money could he possibly earn?

Li Ping is now doing business outside, earning at least 10,000 to 20,000 yuan a month, so he is very proud.

Seeing that Haijing was about to leave, he hurriedly said, "Tonight is a gathering of old classmates. They're mainly here to celebrate my housewarming. I just bought a house nearby, it's over 100 square meters. A lot of my high school classmates will be coming. You should come too."

After a pause, he said:

"I heard that your wedding with Bai Ji has been canceled. If you have a girlfriend now, bring her along. It's been a long time since we've seen each other, so it would be nice to get together."

I wanted to refuse the sea view.

But then he remembered what his father had told him that morning.

Hai Rongtian once told him, "When you were in the army, you were actually very aloof and arrogant."

“Back then, our family was made up of third-generation revolutionaries, and I was a military officer. You were also a military officer, so perhaps we were arrogant at heart. But things are different now.”
