Surprise! The rough husband is the hidden boss of the period literature

Chapter 459 Reunion
Chen Dewen was overwhelmed with emotion. "Brother Ye, I never knew you were secretly working on something big. When I saw Shangjiang Group on TV today, I wondered if it was Brother Ye who started this business?"

Jiang Xingye laughed and said, "After graduating back then, I didn't work and just lived off my wife all day. I was thinking of doing something, so I did this. I didn't expect to have some luck."

As he grew older, Jiang Xingye became more and more composed and reserved. Outsiders could neither see nor guess his inner thoughts. Only in front of Xu Qinghuan was he still the same boy he used to be.

Chen Dewen listened to his humble words with mixed feelings.

When they graduated, they were the first cohort after the resumption of the college entrance examination. The state assigned them jobs, and Jiang Xingye was a top student from Yenching University, so he could choose any unit in the country he wanted.

But this guy was daring; he actually chose to stay unemployed.

"Brother Ye, it's embarrassing to say, but I'm just asking because the market here isn't good either. To be honest, I don't really want to do this anymore. I'm thinking of coming to you for help and asking you for a living."

He longed for the freedom and glory he had experienced when he was in the Shangjiang Brigade.

Jiang Xingye agreed quite readily.

But he also knew that these brothers who had once followed him had been in the system for nearly ten years, their thinking had become rigid, and they had fallen far behind.

He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and stood on the seventeenth floor of this iconic, modern building, overlooking the entire city of Yan. In the square not far away, many people were watching the flag-lowering ceremony.

He stood there and watched for a while.

The afterglow shone on his still young and handsome face.

The office door opened silently, and high heels clicked on the thick carpet.

Jiang Xingye turned around abruptly, his sharp gaze slicing through the girl who had barged in carrying a teacup like a knife.

She was a newly recruited employee in the CEO's office who had just completed her probationary period.

"Who let you in?"

"Mr. Jiang, I...I...I just saw you hadn't left work yet, so I came to bring you a cup of tea!"

Jiang Xingye made no attempt to hide his disgust. The young woman in her early twenties was so aggrieved that tears welled up in her eyes. She was not just infatuated with her boss, but also with his youth, wealth, good looks, and extraordinary skills.

Her friend secretly told her that nowadays, no boss is immune to womanizing; many of them keep mistresses on the side.

She thought she had a chance; she was a college student, she was young, and if she could have a son for her boss…

Luo Jinhao scrambled in, then shooed the secretary away. "Brother Ye, I'm so sorry, I really didn't expect this. You see, how about..."

"Open it up, and get her out!" Jiang Xingye said ruthlessly.

It's so hard to recruit a college graduate these days, it's a real tragedy!
But Luo Jinhao didn't say a word of pleading. He quickly agreed to go out and carefully closed the door behind him.

As the boss, Jiang Xingye is not the kind of person who doesn't allow his subordinates to make mistakes, but this is a red line that Jiang Xingye cannot cross.

Jiang Xingye took the private elevator downstairs and naturally couldn't hear the girl crying coming from the president's office, giving all the young female employees in the company a lesson in its own right.

Wouldn't it be better to just settle for a high-paying job?

When Jiang Xingye returned home, Xu Qinghuan was leading the children in planting vegetables in the yard. Seeing him return, she came up to him and took his suit jacket from his hands. "Did Chen Dewen call you?"

"They hit each other! They exchanged a few words."

Jiang Xingye put his arm around his wife's waist and kissed her, ignoring the children's presence.

Chen Dewen's phone call just now instantly brought him back to seventeen years ago, when he first saw Xu Qinghuan at the entrance of the commune's supply and marketing cooperative. They had been together for seventeen years!

"What's wrong?" Xu Qinghuan noticed his strange expression. "What happened?"

"It's nothing, I just missed you!" He put his arm around Xu Qinghuan's waist, left the children outside, and went into the room.

While she was changing clothes, Jiang Xingye got aroused and pinned her against the closet, doing it rather roughly.

It wasn't completely dark yet, and Xu Qinghuan could still hear the children talking outside. She tried to suppress her own voice, but she couldn't suppress the feelings Jiang Xingye evoked in her. She bit his arm and sobbed.

After a long while, Jiang Xingye relaxed and pulled her into his arms, burying his face in her shoulder from behind. "I met you when you were seventeen, and this year, we've been together for seventeen years..." Looking back, Jiang Xingye felt a lingering sense of awe; time had flown by so quickly!
too fast!
He was already middle-aged; he only had half a lifetime left to love the person in his arms.

I'm so reluctant to leave!

Over the years, Jiang Xingye has been like a spinning top, never stopping for a moment.

The old man celebrated his 90th birthday at a five-star hotel under the Shangjiang Group, where guests gathered to celebrate.

Earlier, Jiang Xingye sent messages to the educated youth who had stayed in Shangjiang Brigade, the members of Shangjiang Brigade, and the old friends that the old man had met in Yancheng.

No gifts accepted, just pure fun.

The Jiang family members naturally couldn't be absent.

Many years later, Jiang Xingjun now has two bars and four stars on his shoulders, becoming a division commander and entering the ranks of senior officers.

Jiang Xingwei, on the other hand, has two bars and three stars.

They took a day off and came with their wives and children.

The headquarters of the Four Sisters Clothing Group is in Yancheng, where Jiang Xingmei serves as the CEO. Over the years, she has become very capable.

Grandpa Jiang was in good spirits. He and Grandma Jiang, dressed in Tang suits, slowly walked down the spiral staircase, with Jiang Xingye and Xu Qinghuan accompanying them.

Jiang Xingye wore a custom-made suit, while Xu Qinghuan wore a satin embroidered cheongsam, her hair in a bun, and emerald jewelry that made her skin look as white as snow and her demeanor elegant and noble.

Over the years, the old man and woman have been in good health, practically becoming a living advertisement for Xu Qinghuan.

Who would have thought that more than ten years ago, the old man and woman's health couldn't hold up anymore?

After completing her doctoral studies, Dr. Xu Qinghuan stayed on at the university. She did not take a position at the hospital to mentor students; instead, she primarily provided health care for some political figures.

Even political figures from major Western Hemisphere countries come here to visit.

Therefore, we have many important guests today, and they have all been seated in the VIP living room.

Xu Qinghuan and her husband escorted the two elderly people to the VIP living room.

Mr. and Mrs. Huo Fuhai were also there this time, chatting and laughing inside. A group of old folks were discussing health preservation. When they saw Xu Qinghuan arrive, they asked, "Come on, Huanhuan, tell these old folks how to maintain good health?"

Xu Qinghuan laughed and said, "Eat well, drink well, have fun, don't stay up late, do whatever you want! Just call me if you need anything!"

This caused a group of people to burst into laughter.

The couple went outside to greet the guests.

"Xu Zhiqing, it's been a long time!" A group of people came in from outside, and the one at the front said with a smile.

Xu Qinghuan looked closely and immediately greeted them with a smile, "Oh, it's you guys!"

Qiao Xinyu and Xu Zhiqing hugged, as did Yu Xiaomin.

Back then, so many people came and went from the educated youth settlement, but now Xu Qinghuan only keeps in touch with Qiao Xinyu, Yu Xiaomin, and Jiang Xingmei. Over the years, they have never lost contact and get together whenever they have the chance.

Jiang Xingmei also came over, and they hugged each other.

Jiang Xingye then greeted Chen Dewen and the others.

"Brother Ye, we didn't tell you beforehand and came so abruptly. Please don't mind, right?" Liu Zhijian said.

This time, Huang Dahai, Luo Zaisheng, and Song Anping all came.

"You're being too polite. I would love to invite you over, but you haven't contacted me for so many years. I had no idea where you were, even though you're all over the world."

　This is the final update, consisting of three chapters, with the last one being a bonus chapter titled "Jiang Xingye in the Book," depicting the life without Xu Qinghuan.
