During breakfast, Zhao Yuxin asked, "Honey, what time are mom and dad arriving today?"

Xu Yang said, "They\'ll arrive at five-thirty in the afternoon. When we get back to town, it\'ll be just in time for dinner. They haven\'t tried Haidilao before, so we plan to go there."

A week ago, Xu Yang\'s mother, Jiang Qiuping, called to say that she had booked the flight tickets and would be visiting Jiang City to see her son and daughter-in-law today.

Their son was now successful, yet they had not visited Jiang City before.

They were not driving over, as it was too tiring, but flying in from Shashi City.

Zhao Yuxin nodded repeatedly, "Mhm, I feel like it\'s been a while since I\'ve had Haidilao too. This will be a good chance to satisfy my cravings."

"I haven\'t been there in a while either," Xu Yang said with a smile. "Right, we should invite your dad and sister Ru Yan as well. Both our families can go together."

"Great, sister Ru Yan hasn\'t met our parents yet," Zhao Yuxin nodded in agreement.

After breakfast.

Zhao Yuxin called her father.

Once off the phone, Zhao Yuxin said, "Husband, it\'s settled. What shall we do this morning?"

Xu Yang held Zhao Yuxin in his arms and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Zhao Yuxin thought for a bit and said, "Honey, you previously identified some antiques and found some great deals. How about we stroll around the antique street? I want to see firsthand how you pick up those deals."

Xu Yang couldn\'t help but smile wryly, "Finding deals like that isn\'t something you can just do whenever you want. I would love to find some, but there need to be overlooked items to find. Opportunities like that come by chance."

Zhao Yuxin said, "How will you know if there aren\'t any if we don\'t go? Maybe there are some to be found since you haven\'t been there for so long."

Xu Yang asked, "Do you really want to go?"

Zhao Yuxin nodded and said, "Mhm, I really do. Let\'s treat it like window shopping. Otherwise, we\'ll have nothing to do at home."

Xu Yang said, "Alright, if you want to go, then let\'s go!"

The two of them got ready and set off.

Over half an hour later, the Rolls-Royce Cullinan stopped at the entrance to the antique street.

Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin got out of the car and began their stroll along the antique street.

Zhao Yuxin was brimming with excitement, examining various interesting antiques, and regardless of their authenticity, she would have Xu Yang assess them.

Halfway through their stroll, they walked into an antique shop.

After looking around and, like the other stores, finding no deals to be had, they prepared to leave.

That\'s when they heard a voice.

"Xu Yang, it\'s you!"

Along with the voice, a man walked in from outside.

"It\'s you," Xu Yang narrowed his eyes as he saw the man.

The man was none other than Yang Jingsheng.

Xu Yang hadn\'t expected to run into him here.

The last time they met was at a hotel in Zhucheng.

"Xu Yang, what, you thinking of scouring the antique street for deals again?" Yang Jingsheng said with a cold smile.

Xu Yang glanced at Yang Jingsheng and without responding, he took Zhao Yuxin\'s hand, ready to leave.

"Xu Yang, now that you\'re here, don\'t rush off," Yang Jingsheng blocked Xu Yang\'s path.

"What do you want?" Xu Yang frowned.

He really had nothing much to say to the man.

Back when he was with Zhao Yulu, he had invited the man for a meal, only to be ridiculed and belittled by him relentlessly.

Back then, for the sake of Zhao Yulu, he endured it.

But now, he had no connection to the man, and unless necessary, he wouldn\'t bother speaking a word to him even if they met.

"Xu Yang, you made a fortune from that lucky purchase before, earning tens of millions. We have a treasure in our store; do you want to take a look? You might find a huge bargain," Yang Jingsheng said with a smile.

"Your store? This is your shop? Since when did you start dealing with antiques?" Xu Yang asked curiously.

"I\'m not running a business; I work here as an employee," Yang Jingsheng explained.

Last time, he and his father had failed to acquire Qianjiao Company. His dad could still be a manager at Kai Xuan Investments, but he wasn\'t so fortunate and was directly fired.

He even asked Chen Guanglei to arrange a job for him at another company.

Chen Guanglei was the president of Kai Xuan Investments, which had stakes in many companies, so in theory, there should have been no problem for him to arrange a job for Yang Jingsheng at one of them.

But Chen Guanglei was very clear that Yang Jingsheng was a complete waste of space.

Even if he made arrangements, it would just be a hassle.

If there were any slip-ups at work, it would ultimately fall back on him anyway.

So, Chen Guanglei made up all sorts of excuses to shirk off the responsibility.

Having no other choice, Yang Jingsheng could only look for a job himself.

But with his capabilities, finding a good job was just too difficult.

All he could find were very ordinary jobs.

He couldn\'t keep any job for long.

After changing through several jobs and finding none to his satisfaction,

one day, he thought of Xu Yang\'s lucky find in the antique street.

So he figured whether he too could strike it big here.

Therefore, he took a stroll down antique street.

With his expertise or the lack thereof, it was like looking in the dark; how could he ever find a bargain?

He happened to see this shop hiring staff.

Yang Jingsheng thought it over and figured he could work here, learn something, and maybe he\'d find his own big bargain.

If Xu Yang could do it, why couldn\'t he?

And so, he applied and started working here.

"I see, your career path has been quite diverse. You were in the catering business before, then at Kai Xuan Company, now dealing with antiques," Xu Yang said, realizing the full picture.

"Hmph, if I\'ve ended up like this, it\'s all thanks to you!" Yang Jingsheng snorted, his expression sour.

If it weren\'t for Xu Yang taking over Yuhuo and changing it to Jiangdi Lao, causing Meiwei Hotpot to lose business, his father wouldn\'t have lost his position at Meiwei Group and been forced to leave.

If it weren\'t for Xu Yang stepping in and acquiring Qianjiao Cosmetics Company, he and his father would\'ve been able to secure their positions at Kai Xuan Investments.

His dad could\'ve become the vice president of Kai Xuan Investments, and he would\'ve been mid-level management.

They could\'ve returned to their former status, or even surpassed it.

In his eyes, everything was Xu Yang\'s fault; Xu Yang was the reason for his current plight.

His resentment and hatred toward Xu Yang were beyond words.

Even though his dad often told him that Xu Yang was now someone they could only look up to and advised him to let go of the past and not provoke Xu Yang—even to walk around him if they crossed paths—

he couldn\'t let it go.

Although he claimed to have moved on, he hadn\'t truly let go in his heart.

Today, seeing Xu Yang here, he suddenly devised a plan to swindle Xu Yang thoroughly.

"Yang Jingsheng, you can mess with food all you like, but you can\'t just say anything you want. What do you mean \'your current state is all thanks to me?" Xu Yang said.

"Hmph, am I not stating the facts?" Yang Jingsheng retorted coldly.

"If that\'s what you think, then let it be," Xu Yang said, with no interest in arguing with Yang Jingsheng, "Please step aside, and don\'t block the way."

"Don\'t go just yet. We have a treasure in our store; don\'t you want to take a look?" Yang Jingsheng hadn\'t forgotten the real reason he was stopping Xu Yang.

"What kind of treasure?" Xu Yang asked casually.

He wasn\'t very interested in seeing it, but if the other party brought it out, he might still take a look.
