A-Hua had worried that Xia Dajun might claim he hadn’t recovered, which would make the young master look bad for forcing him out.

Seeing Xia Dajun’s excitement, A-Hua became more diplomatic:

“It’s not working directly with the young master. Remember the construction site where I introduced your brother and niece? The young master heard that Boss Ke isn’t following all the rules, so he wants you to keep an eye on things there. We can’t let Boss Ke deceive the company – you’ll be serving as a supervisor.”

Not returning to the young master’s side?

Xia Dajun felt disappointed.

But he quickly cheered up. After being idle for so long, having real work would look good to the young master – most importantly regarding borrowing money for a house. He didn’t know when the houses Little Yu mentioned would go on sale, but for his unborn son’s sake, he’d have to swallow his pride and ask the young master for a loan.

After his initial disappointment and subsequent joy, Xia Dajun realized that being a supervisor at Ke Yixiong’s construction site meant he could also look after his brother and niece.

A-Hua watched him leave happily, feeling speechless.

Transferring positions without asking about the salary?

If such a person hadn’t saved the young master before, how could he possibly survive in a place like Pengcheng?

While A-Hua silently cursed his foolishness, Xia Dajun returned home quite happy.

Since registering their marriage with Xia Dajun, Little Yu also wanted a peaceful life. It was better that Xia Dajun wouldn’t return as Du Zhaohui’s bodyguard – this way, Liu Tianquan couldn’t force her to gather intelligence anymore.

“Brother Dajun, you must work hard. I’ve heard that formal big companies require education credentials. While you can’t compete with others in education, you must win Young Master Du’s trust. If you handle his tasks well, won’t your future be secure?”

Little Yu was quite articulate, saying exactly what men wanted to hear. She could even show admiration and trust toward someone as foolish as Xia Dajun. Whether acting or not, her skill was impressive, keeping Xia Dajun thoroughly content.

After marrying Little Yu, Xia Dajun felt his first few decades of life had been wasted – this was the life men dreamed of.

When Xia Hongbing and Xia Hongxia returned and heard about Xia Dajun becoming a supervisor at Ke Yixiong’s construction site, they were also happy. The father-daughter pair, thoroughly disciplined by Cao Liu, hoped Xia Dajun could stand up for them!

As for Ke Yixiong.

He wasn’t of the level to know the explosive news that Du Zhaohui and Tang Yuanyue knew.

However, when A-Hua wanted to dump Xia Dajun at his construction site, Ke Yixiong sensed something unusual. After he led people to disrupt Bai Zhiyong’s wedding, he provoked the fighting spirit of the Bai Family Martial Arts School. Bai Zhenzhu had stepped forward, bringing many martial brothers to Pengcheng to “make a living.” She had somehow found many old vehicles and started a transport team. Though newly established, they had already stolen two business deals from Ke Yixiong.

Ke Yixiong’s subordinates constantly clashed with the Bai Family Martial Arts School people. While Ke Yixiong had more thugs, none could match the fighting skills of the martial arts school members.

Already annoyed, Ke Yixiong was far from pleased to hear about A-Hua dumping Xia Dajun on him:

“That Du fellow treats me like his lackey, throwing all his garbage my way! Cao Liu, what do you think Du Zhaohui means by this – sending someone to supervise me?”

Cao Liu chuckled, “Boss, I don’t think so. If they wanted Xia Dajun to supervise you, wouldn’t they give him more authority? A-Hua said Xia Dajun couldn’t continue at Cheng Rong Group, has no skills, and Young Master Du cares about his future development, finding him more suitable work… We’re even paying his salary – he’s been thrown out by Young Master Du!”

Ke Yixiong had the same thought but couldn’t help kicking Cao Liu:

“So he takes me for a garbage collector. Once, twice, he shows no respect!”

Cao Liu was Ke Yixiong’s confidant and could speak freely.

Initially, they had schemed to establish connections with Du Zhaohui, but Du Zhaohui’s heart was darker than Ke Yixiong had imagined.

Even Xia Dajun, who had saved Du Zhaohui’s life and was once trusted, could be kicked out so easily. Ke Yixiong became very wary of Du Zhaohui.

That Du fellow just had the good fortune, born into the right family as Du Cheng Rong’s son in Hong Kong, inheriting mountains of wealth from birth. At about the same age, Ke Yixiong had to scheme endlessly for small profits – naturally, he felt resentful.

Was Du Zhaohui smarter than him?

Ke Yixiong had become a gang leader through his brains, not his fists. He was quite confident in his intelligence.

So far, only one person had earned his admiration – Xia Xiaolan, a woman.

Cao Liu also felt indignant for his boss. His boss was so clever, yet even Du Zhaohui’s bodyguard A-Hua could order him around. Someday, Boss Ke would soar high and show Du Fellow what he was capable of!

While Cao Liu didn’t dare advise him, Ke Yixiong quickly figured it out himself. When it came to swallowing pride, Ke Yixiong modestly claimed second place – few could claim first.

“Let him come! Now I have three members of the Xia family under me – perfect chance to earn some favor with Xia Xiaolan!”

Poor Xia Dajun, still dreaming beautiful dreams, unaware he had been thrown out like garbage by Du Zhaohui.

…

Little Wang didn’t understand what Grandma Yu wanted him to learn from Tang Heng’en.

It wasn’t about learning how to please Comrade Liu Fen, but rather about Tang Heng’en’s method of handling matters.

Looking several steps ahead was standard for people like Tang Heng’en. In a chain reaction, some small matters didn’t need direct handling – once the bigger picture was set, the ripple effects would resolve many problems.

He only needed to attend Ji Ya’s wedding, bringing Liu Fen along.

There was no need to deliberately introduce Liu Fen’s situation – how could such news stay hidden?

His mere presence, while distancing himself from the Ji family, would have made wedding guests uneasy even if Ji Ya hadn’t gone crazy with the wine. The Ji family’s wedding would have backfired.

By making his relationship with Liu Fen public, some people became curious about the leader’s private life. Taking a better-safe-than-sorry approach, they didn’t want to offend leadership and risk being targeted… They were just scaring themselves. Tang Heng’en handled official business properly – his dislike of Cheng Rong Group wasn’t because Du Zhaohui had kept Xia Dajun.

But Du Zhaohui certainly didn’t think so.

Sure enough, Young Du scared himself and immediately showed Xia Dajun the door – this development was within Tang Heng’en’s expectations.

Without Du Zhaohui, regardless of who Xia Dajun’s new wife was, it would be difficult to scheme against Xiaolan and A-Fen. The matter Xiaolan had warned about didn’t even require Tang Heng’en’s direct intervention.

Then there was Liu Yong who had come to him about some thugs threatening Xiaolan’s safety… While the gang leader might not know the news, the clever people in Pengcheng would be more cautious in dealing with Xiaolan.

Those eyeing Qihang Real Estate’s first project at Jinsha Pool should now have reservations.

Didn’t people always guess that he was Qihang Real Estate’s backing? Tang Heng’en simply confirmed their suspicions.

Currently, there are no regulations prohibiting officials’ direct relatives from doing business. Tang Heng’en had a clear conscience and didn’t care what others thought – this was truly killing three birds with one stone, resolving many issues through Ji Ya’s wedding!
