The next day.
On the plane of the delegation to China, Tang Jinyan closed his eyes and leaned against the back of the chair, pretending to be asleep.
Although he was surrounded by high-ranking officials and dignitaries, his mind was filled with the gentleness of last night.
The Fat Squad was finally formed. Their tacit understanding was like a real squad that had been trained for many years. There was no estrangement between them, and they were as close as sisters. There was nothing pretentious about it either. In the end, they were even willing to stack on top of each other and let him enjoy a flatfish kiss.
Tang Jinyan knew why. Other than their reluctance to part, the biggest reason was that they did not want him to worry too much.
As Park Soyeon said, they might not be able to help you with other things, but at least, they would not bother you when it came to relationships.
Tang Jinyan sighed. He was too lucky to be surrounded by such kind women … If he was more selfish, he would not have cared so much … But in other words, it was precisely because of their kindness that he was fatally attracted to them, causing them to be entangled in the end.
In fact, each of them was a ray of light.
Tang Jinyan was pretending to be asleep, but there was someone beside him who was sizing him up.
The president of Letian Group, Xin Dongbin.
The head of the secretary's office, Xu Tailie, had arranged for Tang Jinyan and Xin Dongbin to sit together. His intention was very clear — he wanted them to reveal the grudge between them.
At that time, Tang Jinyan had caused the Xin family of Letian Group to be embroiled in a national storm, causing the Xin family to suffer a lot of losses. It should have been an irreconcilable grudge, but the operation was a little subtle. In fact, Tang Jinyan and Xin Dongbin did not have any irreconcilable grudge. Instead, they cooperated tacitly to go against Xin Dongli's faction.
Now that Xin Dongli had stepped down, the control of Letian Hotel was firmly in the hands of Xin Dongbin. This was a good thing for Xin Dongbin. So, this grudge was not really a grudge. It could only be said that Tang Jinyan had "offended" the Xin family.
Of course, for a minor character, offending the Xin family was no different from making a mortal enemy. Either way, they were doomed.
But for the current Tang Jinyan, he was qualified to sit side by side with Xin Dongbin. At this level, the so-called "violation" was not a violation, but a common small conflict. The two of them sat down and chatted, and it would be over …
Xin Dongbin leaned back in his chair. He seemed to be resting with his eyes closed like Tang Jinyan, but in fact, he was secretly observing Tang Jinyan from the corner of his eyes.
Now, almost all of them knew about Tang Jinyan's background. His life since he was a child had been dug out and studied thoroughly.
The more he looked into it, the more he felt that it was a legend. From an orphan to a society, from a society to a big shot, and then from a big shot to the king of the underworld. That wasn't enough. On the other side of the underworld, he was the chairman of the Tang Corporation, a business celebrity with a net worth of seven to eight hundred million, and a representative of the cultural exchange between China and Korea.
Tsk tsk … what a weirdo.
Black was not black, white was not white. The two colors intertwined, and no one could disentangle them.
Then, his relationship with the Lee family was also legendary. Kidnapping the Lee family's daughter was not a big deal, but the key was that he made her pretend to be a man and accompanied him for many years. This was simply a story … Xin Dongbin admitted that if he were Lee Jianxi, he would probably be equally indecisive and not know how to treat Tang Jinyan.
It was easy for Xin Dongbin to put himself in this situation from his perspective. He only needed to think about it. If Zhang Shanyun and Tang Jinyan were to fall in love, Xin Dongbin's head would swell up three times. Fortunately, there was no need to worry about this. Lee Yoon-rim could sit and watch Tang Jinyan find ten thousand idols, but she could not tolerate him finding a socialite.
Observing him up close, Xin Dongbin could only sigh. So young.
At this age, there was no other person in Korea who had started from scratch and made it to where he was today.
No one could refute that he was the number one person in the younger generation. After all, other people with such wealth were all second-generation heirs. Not to mention the younger generation, even Xin Dongbin himself could only be considered a second-generation heir. Tang Jinyan, on the other hand, could be considered a first-generation heir.
To be able to make it to where he was from scratch, there was a certain amount of luck and fate. But most importantly, it was not something that could be obtained by relying on these factors. One only needed to look at his hair that was already half white at such a young age.
It was not easy for this man.
Xin Dongbin finally spoke, "President Tang, how old are you this year?"
"Twenty-seven.
In Korea, I should be twenty-eight, "Tang Jinyan answered in detail.
Xin Dongbin laughed, "Younger than Shanyun."
Tang Jinyan also laughed, "Younger is better."
Xin Dongbin nodded. "Yes, it means we have more time."
Tang Jinyan shook his head, "There's not much time left."
Xin Dongbin smiled faintly.
Yes, Lee Yoon-rim was already thirty years old … His best years were spent by his side as a cross-dresser. Now that the prime of his youth was about to pass, any man with a conscience would want to go head to head with Li Jianxi. But most people could not do it, and Tang Jinyan was gradually achieving this.
Therefore, this was a man whose goal was to go head to head with Li Jianxi. It was no wonder that he would use such drastic measures to argue with the Xin family. It was completely understandable why he was so bold.
Xin Dongbin took the initiative to say, "What happened last time was Dongli's fault."
Tang Jinyan quickly replied, "I was a little careless in my handling of matters, and I would like to apologize to President Xin.
I hope President Xin can give me more pointers in the future. "
Xin Dongbin smiled. As expected, he was very sensible. He was completely different from the barbarians in the underworld.
He thought for a moment and smiled, "Letian and Tang Dynasty have some similarities in their bloodlines.
Shouldn't we be fighting with our enemies? "
Tang Jinyan said, "I think so too."
Both of them laughed and did not continue.
In fact, after the last incident, these two families were really tied together.
In the future, if anyone wanted to attack Tang Dynasty's bloodline, others would immediately think of Letian. If anyone wanted to attack Letian's bloodline, others would also quickly think of Tang Dynasty.
In this matter, the two families had formed a natural alliance. It was quite interesting.
The so-called grudge was glossed over with just a few simple words. It was like a smile that wiped away all enmity.
Neither of them had any intention to deepen their relationship with each other, so they leaned back in their chairs and continued to rest.
Tang Jinyan's gaze fell on somewhere a few rows away. Zheng Mengzhun and Zheng Mengjiu were sitting side by side and discussing something in a low voice.
This was the real target that Tang Jinyan wanted to cooperate with in the near future. It was a very good environment for them to interact with each other in this diplomatic mission. After all, it was normal for diplomatic missions to communicate with each other. Simple interactions would not lead to guesses about which side to take.
In Seoul, if the words "Tang Jinyan secretly meeting Zheng Mengzhun" reached the ears of the president, who knew what kind of problems it would cause.
In addition to Zheng Mengzhun, Tang Jinyan also wanted to communicate with the president of the Korean Chamber of Commerce, Sun Jingzhi. This was because Sun Jingzhi had another identity now. He was the president of CJ Group and had replaced Lee Jae-hyun.
In many aspects of CJ Group, he had to reach a consensus with Sun Jingzhi.
There were also many people who could relate to him from many angles.
This was a diplomatic mission that was very meaningful to Tang Jinyan …
There was no hurry. The diplomatic mission was in Hua Santian. There would be plenty of opportunities.
