Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Changing Winds and Clouds

After hanging up the phone, Ji Yang sat there, deep in thought.

In the past, it was Chu Shuyuan’s care that allowed him to progress so smoothly. Now, if there were adjustments within the Chu Family, the areas where Chu Shuyuan could lend support seemed to have diminished.

Lighting a cigarette, Ji Yang began to contemplate his future.

Now, things were unfavorable for him. After losing Chu Shuyuan’s support, he could say he almost had nowhere to turn. What would be his next step?

It was then that Ji Yang remembered Sun Xiaoxiao and the several others he had saved, who clearly had some power behind them. It seemed he needed to communicate with them more.

At the same time, Ji Yang was also concerned about Chu Shuyuan. Although she hadn’t really received much support from the Chu Family, she belonged to them after all. If she lost this connection, her chances to advance would be much diminished, wouldn’t they?

Regrettably, Ji Yang knew his own limits; at present, there was nothing he could do to help her.

Then he thought about the people in the countryside who had gone home to inquire about the situation. He knew a storm might be coming.

Near the end of the workday, Ji Yang received a phone call from Qian Huifang.

When he arrived at the place where Qian Huifang lived, he realized it was a villa, which their company had rented for office use. It was quite nice.

Upon entering, he saw Qian Huizhen was also there.

"Yang, I heard there’s been a big shake-up in the province. Are you okay?"

"You know about it too?"

"Such a big event has spread everywhere. I heard that people from the Chu Family in the province are also going to be moved to other places."

They knew that Ji Yang had been supported by Chu Shuyuan and naturally became worried upon hearing this news.

"The specific details are still unclear."

After Ji Yang sat down, Qian Huizhen had already brought over a cup of tea.

Putting down the cup, Qian Huizhen sat beside Ji Yang and said, "We’ve made some money, don’t worry about food and clothing. If politics become unbearable, you could always turn to business."

"Huizhen, what are you saying? It’s not like you haven’t been in business before. If you didn’t have someone covering for you in official circles, do you really think you’d be able to keep going? Have you forgotten about our previous projects?"

At this, Qian Huizhen fell silent.

Qian Huifang said, "Yang, it hasn’t reached that point yet, right?"

Ji Yang just laughed and replied, "Don’t worry. This is just a provincial adjustment; it hasn’t reached us yet. The ones who should be worried are Le Jianjun and people like him."

Qian Huifang said, "Do you think Chu Shuyuan can still hold her ground? I heard that the Chu Family was trying to help her move up a level, and now it’s just that there’s no position available. They just put her in an idle post in the city. What a pity!"

Ji Yang changed the subject, "How’s your project going?"

"Everything is going smoothly."

Qian Huizhen said, "The project’s promotion is going very well. My only concern is the cooperation with that cement factory, after all, it involves Le Jianjun and his ilk."

"There’s nothing too serious to worry about. You just need to be cautious. It’s just business dealings. Just make everything formal."

"Yang, I bought you some pajamas. Go take a shower and change into them," Qian Huizhen said to Ji Yang with a glance.

At this moment, Ji Yang also noticed that both women were wearing home clothes, and faintly, he could also make out the trembling whiteness.

In front of him, through the neckline of Qian Huizhen’s clothes, he could even glimpse the valley.

Seeing Ji Yang glance over, Qian Huizhen coquettishly scolded, "What are you looking at?"
