Chapter Thirty Return to the Country

  Stanford Graduate School of Business. It is located near the Oval at the center of Stanford University campus, and is one of the top business schools in the United States.

  The mission of Stanford Graduate School of Business is to create ideas that deepen and advance the understanding of management, and with these ideas, develop innovative, principled, and insightful leaders who change the world.

  Stanford Graduate School of Business: Change lives. Change organizations. Change the world.

  Everything beautiful at Stanford kept replaying in his eyes, but his heart remained in China. It's been four years here, a full four years without returning to the country. Escapism, rebirth, remorse, yet four years was not enough to make up for the guilt in his heart.

  Because of Stanford's motto, he wanted to come here to reform himself and reform his heart, but did he really succeed? Not necessarily.

  To outsiders, he is always so calm and composed, neither arrogant nor humble, with emotions that never show on his face, gentle and elegant, soft as jade, as if he were the son of God, embodying all the virtues. His handsome face always wears a faint, unchanging smile.

  Little did they know, behind that smile, there were so many heartbreaks and heartaches, those wounds that could not be healed until now have rotted, penetrated into the bone marrow, and become more painful over time.

  He is Jiang Zhe.

  "Evan, I heard you're not planning on staying in the US? Why?" Harry asked with a look of astonishment and incredulity.

  Jiang Jie returned to his senses, smiling faintly as he looked at Harry, but the profound gaze in his eyes was directed towards the distant East, where there were still unfulfilled wishes and realities that he had to face.

  "My fiancée is still in China, so I have to go back." Jiang Jie Zhe simply replied like this, and it was hard to tell whether the tone contained joy or sadness.

  Harry didn't say anything else. His fiancée was in China, so that's where his roots were. Chinese people attach the most importance to their roots, so there was no reason for Jiang Zhe to stay behind.

  Although he is so excellent, staying in America should have better development, but it's impossible.

  Watching his deep eyes gaze into the distance, Harry didn't say anything more, just quietly staying by his side. Perhaps this farewell would be a permanent goodbye.

  Capital International Airport.

  Jiang Jie returned home, his relatives and friends naturally came to greet him, but in recent years, his personality had changed a lot, he was no longer the Jiang Jie who liked lively scenes. Only two of his friends and his fiancée came to pick him up at the airport.

  "Azhe, you've been away for four years, this time back should not leave again!" Xue Zhixiang smiled and went to hug his old friend whom he hadn't seen in four years.

  "I won't leave." Jiang Tiande replied with a faint smile.

  "How can Ah Zhe bear to leave! Our Jia Jia has been waiting for so many years, by the way, when are you two getting married!" Wang Rui asked with a smile after hugging.

  "Wang Rui, stop joking!" Wu Jiajia pouted, her face filled with happiness and a hint of shyness, gazing deeply at Jiang Zhe.

  Wu Jiajia, Jiang Zhe's fiancée.

  The two friends looked at each other with such deep affection, and naturally retreated two steps to give them some private space. If they didn't even have this much tact, then the two of them shouldn't be doing business together.

  Gently embracing Wu Jiajia, kissing her forehead, a deep and not overly sentimental gesture, envied by others. A handsome man and beautiful woman, a beautiful scenery line.

  "Wait until I've made arrangements, then we'll discuss it further." Jiang Jie smiled and glanced at Wang Rui, saying lightly as he patted Wu Jiajia's head gently, his eyes filled with deep affection as he looked at his slightly tense girlfriend.

  Obviously, Wu Jiajia was very surprised to hear this news, staring at Jiang Jie with wide eyes. Jiang Jie smiled and nodded, indicating that it was true, stretching out his hand to stroke Wu Jiajia's fluffy head, giving her confidence.

  "When you're showing off your love in front of us old bachelors, you really are shameless!" Wang Rui said with a pout.

  "What's wrong with me? Ah Xiang, you've been in the country for years, shouldn't you be familiar with Wang Shao's affairs?" Jiang Tiande raised an eyebrow and said indifferently.

  Xue Zhixiang feigned innocence, but there was nothing to do with him in the first place! Jiang Jie just threw this hot potato over with a simple sentence, and his old habit hasn't changed much. Maybe such a Jiang Jie is still reassuring.

  "Alright, alright, let's not mention it again. Today Ah Zhe is back, tonight we'll go have some fun, how about that!" Wang Ruicai didn't want to hear Xue Zhixiang expose his own secrets!

  After all, Wang Rui also thought that he was at least a young boss of a company and couldn't leave an indelible bad impression on his buddies in private life.

  "Alright, I'll go make arrangements first. Tonight, I'm treating, let's meet at the usual place." Jiang Jie Zhe had one arm around his fiancée and the other holding luggage.

  "Wow, after so many years abroad, you still remember our old haunt, that's not easy. I'm coming tonight, nobody try to steal my thunder!" Xue Zhi Xiang said with a teasing tone and a chuckle.

  "All capitalists are evil, let Ah Xiang bleed a bit!" Wu Jiajia happily wrapped her arms around Jiang Zhe's waist and joked.

  "If I'm the worst, then your family's one and that one next to you are a hundred times more evil!" Xue Zhi Xiang patted Wang Rui's shoulder and winked.

  "Alright, let Xiao Zhe go back and rest. We two still have to work hard for the capitalists, see you tonight!" Wang Rui waved his hand and left the airport with Xue Zhi Xiang, arm in arm.

  Is this what they call picking someone up? Maybe, the other person's fiancée came in person, why are these two still hanging around? Get out of here quickly! Maybe at this time, they will think, whether they should also find a wife.

  "Axiong, shouldn't we also find a wife?" Wang Rui said with a mix of seriousness and joking, while driving the car.

  Xue Zhi Xiang, flipping through a magazine in the car, smiled faintly upon hearing Wang Rui's words. Wang Rui had been saying this for many years, but it didn't seem like the real Mrs. Wang would be entering their household anytime soon, so he was already immune to such talk.

  "I'm telling the truth!" Wang Rui looked at Xue Zhi Xiang, who didn't seem to have any reaction, and felt a bit anxious. You bastard, I'm being serious with you! What's with this attitude of yours?!

  "King Shao has never been short of daughters-in-law, what he lacks is a daughter-in-law who truly cares for him." Xue Zhi Xiang closed the magazine and replied nonchalantly.

  "Do you still remember those two girls we met that night?" Wang Rui seemed to have taken a liking to Xia Xuan and Mo Xiao, but it should be just one of them.

  "What do you want to say?" Xue Zhi Xiang raised an eyebrow, a bad premonition arose, and Wang Shao was going to continue to harm the young girl.

  But Wang Rui didn't know that Xue Zhi Xiang had already taken a liking to Mo Xiao Xiao, and Xia Xian was someone he couldn't touch.

  "I don't want to say anything, I just like it." Wang Ruimei smiled with a somewhat... lewd smile.

  Xue Zhixiang didn't say anything else, perhaps Wang Rui just said it casually. It's easy to meet in the vast crowd, but it's not easy to meet again. People say that we should cherish every moment, but is it really that easy?
