Chapter 590: Chapter 590 Chu Shuyuan Arranges a Meeting

After thinking for a while, Ji Yang didn’t interfere with Jinyin’s affairs; instead, he wanted to see what Deng Guohai could still achieve.

Sitting in the chair, soaking up the sun, he felt thoroughly warm and enjoyed it immensely.

Ji Yang’s True Yuan flowed through his body, bringing a sense of clarity with its movement.

During this time, Ji Yang also made a discovery—he had grown even fonder of the ancient tome, realizing he could completely see through his body and clearly discern every change happening within.

Before, he only sensed his body’s condition, but now it was like the Heavenly Eye was open, allowing him to see the state of all his body’s meridians at a glance.

Ji Yang didn’t know exactly what it was, but he felt as if he had evolved somehow.

While observing his body’s condition, Ji Yang heard his phone ring.

Picking it up, he smiled and said, "Sis, what made you think to call me?"

"Are you free to come out now?"

"Yes, I can. If you’re not busy, I’ll come see you right now."

Lately, Chu Shuyuan had been quite busy. Even though Ji Yang knew that leaving the party school wouldn’t result in anyone bothering him much, seeing Chu Shuyuan was somewhat difficult. She had recently been transferred to the Discipline Inspection Commission, and he didn’t know why, but she had been extremely busy with inspections lately, frequently traveling with work groups all over, hardly ever in Capital City.

"I just got back, and there might be something I need your help with."

"No problem, I’ll come right now. Just tell me where."

"I’ve asked someone to wait outside the party school; you will see them as soon as you exit the gate. Come over by car."

After hanging up, Ji Yang called the class monitor to ask for leave.

Now, Ji Yang was quite popular in his class, and when the monitor heard the reason, he asked if Ji Yang needed any help.

When the monitor heard that Ji Yang was only meeting a familiar person, he naturally agreed and even said there was no rush to come back; if anything came up, he’d cover for him.

Having left the school, Ji Yang indeed saw a small car waiting there.

When he opened the door and got in, Ji Yang was surprised to find it was Chu Ning.

"Ah, it’s you!" Ji Yang exclaimed joyfully.

Chu Ning gave a wry smile and said, "Old Ji, you’re really making waves now. I’m not doing so well; I’ve already left the officialdom."

Ji Yang really wasn’t aware of his situation, so he asked, "What happened?"

"Later, I was transferred to a county, which initially seemed like a great opportunity for progress, but then I was framed!"

Chu Ning shook his head continuously. These individuals born into major families never respected the grassroots officials, assuming they could easily manipulate them. Unexpectedly, they ended up being plotted against by those very people, nearly causing a huge incident. It was only thanks to the Chu Family’s connections that he got out. However, after the incident, there was no way he could continue in politics because it was recorded in his files and it would be impossible to get promoted again. Moreover, the Chu Family realized that with Chu Ning’s scheming ways, continuing in officialdom would probably lead to even bigger problems. So, he left the officialdom and went into business.

Ji Yang sighed after hearing Chu Ning’s account. This guy used to be so prominent, but now things had turned out this way.

"Let’s not talk about me. You’re the impressive one here. I’ve been hearing about your exploits—you’ve even made it to deputy bureau level. If it weren’t for your age, making it to bureau level wouldn’t be a problem at all."

Ji Yang said, "Did your sister send you to pick me up?"

"Yes, this time it’s actually a matter concerning our Chu Family."

Ji Yang still didn’t know what it was about.

Chu Ning said, "Let me put it this way, our Chu Family is related through marriage to the Lu Family. Master Lu is unwell now, and since they heard you helped Sir Feng with his illness, they want to ask you to take a look."

Ji Yang was speechless; he hadn’t expected this to be the issue.

"I just got lucky; my medical skills aren’t that great. You could ask some renowned doctors."

"I don’t know the specifics; my job was just to pick you up. You can talk it over with my sister."

Now that Chu Ning was referring to Chu Shuyuan as his sister and showing such closeness, Ji Yang secretly thought that Chu Shuyuan’s position within the Chu Family must be rising.

The two quickly stopped discussing this matter and switched to talking about business.

Driving the car, Chu Ning discussed his own ventures. He had taken over a jewelry company.

"What’s the situation with your jewelry company?" Ji Yang was genuinely curious.

"It was handed to me because no one else wanted it; I’m just getting by. Our company mostly imports gemstones and such from abroad, mainly from Myanmar. But the situation there isn’t good right now; no one dares go there, and we can’t get high-quality gemstones anymore."

Ji Yang laughed and said, "I still have some connections there; I’ll help you get some good gemstones when I have time."

Chu Ning laughed, "Stop bragging; that place is too chaotic now."

Ji Yang didn’t say any more.
