Chapter: 1738

"Tomorrow."

"What? So early? Don't stay in Yancheng for a few more days?"

"My business is already done, there's nothing to stay for, I'm leaving tomorrow."

Dong Ruolin heard this and thoughtlessly said: "Then I'll leave tomorrow too, how about we go together? Let's sit on the same flight back home."

Lei Chen wanted to refuse, but seeing her pleading face, he couldn't come up with a refusal.

After all, it's normal for friends to sit on the same flight, and I can't deliberately not take the same flight as her.

So Lei Chen simply said: "Okay, then let's go together."

Dong Ruolin hastened to say: "Then give me your identification information and I'll buy tickets with you!"

"Alright."

They had already prepared equipment for Kong De Long to ride a bike to Jinling during the banquet. They arranged someone, bought an old Pontiac 28 bicycle, installed a luggage rack that could hold five bags behind it, and equipped him with a helmet, thick down jacket, sleeping bag, tent, water bottle, and other items.

They weren't doing this out of genuine concern for their nephew, but wanted to hurry him up after he finished eating so as not to waste time and get Ding Ruolin angry. If anything went wrong again, it would really be a big loss for the Dong family.

Dong Shuihua didn't care about being upset anymore and quickly called her husband Kong Lingshan, who was busy finishing work and getting ready to arrive at the banquet site, to tell him what had happened and then asked him to hurry back home to pack some luggage for their son - including clean and practical clothing, snacks for the road, etc.

Kong Lingshan listened to the whole story and was both angry and scared. Luckily, this incident didn't offend anyone in the Kong family; otherwise, it would have caused big trouble.

So he didn't care about attending his mother-in-law's birthday banquet and hurried back home to pack things for their son.

When the banquet was almost over, he finally got into his car and rushed back home.

Kong De Long saw his dad arrive and without saying a word, hugged his dad tightly and started crying.

He's about to head to Jinling for a year-long renovation, and this year will be very tough. He's already guessed roughly what would happen, so seeing his father, he feels deeply sorrowful inside.

Kong De Long is also helpless.

Although he's heartbroken over his son, he knows too well the nature of high society in Yanjing.

In this high-society circle, it's a matter of having more money than anyone else can crush you.

The Kong family may seem powerful and influential at times, but when they encounter top-tier families like the Guo clan, even a fart won't dare to be released. Since his son has offended people from the Guo clan and their esteemed guests, this incident will undoubtedly require him to pay a price - otherwise, the Kong family would have to face the wrath of the Guo clan.

We've had similar incidents before, where sons got into trouble but were quick-witted enough to use the entire family to take the blame. In the end, the family was almost ruined and couldn't even protect their son, who was directly abolished by people from the powerful clans.

Currently, most big families in the business world are basically walking a tightrope.

To make tens of billions in deals, one must rely on financial leverage - otherwise, it's impossible to develop.

Even Wanda Group, which is known for its rapid development, owes banks large amounts of debt. A company like Century Park, rumored to have over 9 trillion yuan in debts just from interest payments alone. JrNovels.com
