Chapter 123 -123 Someone Comes to Visit
Jiang Chengren finally found his son in the office and quickly dashed over in long strides.
“Jingze, you’re alright!” He reached out to embrace his son but quickly withdrew his hand.
He was mainly worried about using too much force and accidentally fracturing Jiang Jingze’s bones.

Given his son’s luck, such a low-probability event was not impossible.
Jiang Jingze looked at his dad, baffled, “What’s wrong?”
“I just received a message that our car flipped over, right onto the side you usually sit on.”
...
When the driver had called him from a public phone booth earlier, it had terrified Jiang Chengren out of his wits, and he had almost forgotten about the call from the restaurant manager before that.
He didn’t know if it was a tire or something that the car had hit on the road, but it just flipped inexplicably.
Since the car flipped towards the passenger side, the driver wasn’t hurt, but if Jiang Jingze had been in the car, he definitely wouldn’t have survived.
Jiang Jingze couldn’t help but swallow his saliva, finally showing some fear.
After all, no matter how mature he seemed, he was still just a child.
“I… I’m really unlucky,” he said.
Jiang Chengren spat a few times, “Don’t talk nonsense, this isn’t bad luck, it’s good fortune. Tell me, how did you suddenly change your mind?”
Jiang Jingze thought for a moment and then told his father what had happened.
Jiang Chengren said emotionally, “It seems the master was right; if not for him, you might have already been in trouble.”
Jiang Jingze wanted to object, but he didn’t know what to say.
He would rather believe it was all a coincidence than admit that the crazy old holy man was a hermit with great wisdom.
“But you, kid, usually don’t care about anyone; why are you so mindful of a little girl?”
Seeing his son was not in danger, Jiang Chengren indulged in a bit of human gossip.
“We are now in the New China, which promotes free love; don’t even think about arranging a child marriage or anything.”
Jiang Jingze gave his unreliable old dad a cold look, not sure what he was rambling about.
He was still just a child, after all.
He just thought the little girl he met looked strangely familiar, that’s all.
Getting no response from his son, Jiang Chengren chuckled to himself and then spoke seriously.
“Regardless, since they’ve shown kindness to our family, I heard their family is preparing to collaborate with our restaurant, right? It’s a good opportunity to send some gifts through the manager, share some profits, and repay them.”
Jiang Chengren was after all a businessman who didn’t like owing favors to others, and he made a quick decision.
Meanwhile, the Yue brothers took Yue Qingqing back to Daye Village.
After Yue Jiannan handed over the goods and money to Yue Xiaofang, he vividly described to the family what had happened that day.
The focus was on the few unspeakable interactions between the little child and their Qingqing.
This earned Yue Jiannan a smack on the head from Yue Jiandong.
“Don’t you have a filter on your mouth? How old is our Qingqing? What are you talking about?”
Yue Jiannan stuck out his tongue from the smack but continued making faces.
Lin Chunju, however, caught the gist from his jumbled description, “Big brother, are you planning to do business afterward?”
When the conversation turned serious, Yue Jiandong became solemn and nodded.
“Mom, I also want to give it a try. The country is talking about reform and opening up, and I think we should find ways to live better days,” he said.
Lin Chunju pondered, “You have to think it through, no one from the Yue family has ever been in business before.”
In this era, being a businessman was not a glorious profession.
Yue Jiandong was undaunted, “I’ve thought about this for a long time, there are many people in the city doing business, our family can give it a try too.”
Lin Chunju just smiled, “Alright, since you’ve made up your mind, go ahead. If it doesn’t work out, we can always go back to farming.”
With his mother’s approval, Yue Jiandong finally felt a weight lift from his chest.
Days later, just as Yue Jiandong was planning another trip to the city to meet the manager of Four Seas Restaurant, suddenly loud noises came from the courtyard outside.
“Is anyone from the Yue family here? Come out quickly, someone is looking for you!”
“Someone specifically came from the city to find you!”
