Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

In order to cater to Zhou Qi's taste, the chef also specially prepared several dishes from Zhou Qi's hometown, which showed the high attention he attached to Zhou Qi everywhere.

Li Jianan was not present.

"Where is Jianan?" the old man asked, with a questioning look in his eyes.

Li Zihong looked at his daughter Li Jiaxin. She went to the airport with her brother to pick up Zhou Qi, but when they came back, Li Jianan was nowhere to be seen.

Everyone was busy at the time and no one noticed his absence.

Now that the dinner has begun, Li Jianan still hasn't shown up. Not only does this make the old man feel something is wrong, but even Li Zihong's face darkens.

As a distinguished guest of the Li family, Zhou Qi's arrival should have been treated with the highest standards of courtesy, but Li Jianan's behavior was extremely impolite.

Facing the gazes of her father and grandfather, Li Jiaxin was a little embarrassed and said softly, "My brother said he had something to do and would be back later."

Something wrong? The Li family knew Li Jianan's habits very well.

The old man snorted coldly, obviously disappointed with the performance of his eldest grandson. This cold snort also made Li Zihong feel nervous, and he knew that it was his fault for not educating his son well.

Li Jianan and Zhou Qi are of similar age, but the gap between them is so huge.

This made Li Zihong unable to help but turn the topic to the stock market, and he described in detail the exciting trading process in the afternoon, especially the last bullish transaction against the market trend, which brought rich returns to the family.

Looking back, those ten minutes of decision-making were truly exciting.

In fact, the old man and Li Jiaxin already knew the results of the investment, but they did not expect the situation at the time to be so tense.

The old man smiled and nodded. Considering his status, this was quite obvious appreciation.

He went on to say, "The financial industry is very risky. In comparison, traditional industries are more stable and are the foundation of our Li family. I heard that you also have your own business, and it is doing well."

The old man continued: "Seizing an opportunity is luck, but being able to accurately grasp opportunities many times is ability."

On the surface, this sounds like a compliment to Zhou Qi, but in this circle, one cannot just take words at face value.

The old man would not say directly: I know you didn’t come to Hong Kong City just for the stock market, you are also involved in many industries, what do you want to achieve through the Li family?

Those who understand these words will naturally understand; those who don’t understand them still need time to grow.

Zhou Qi responded respectfully: "Thank you for the compliment, old man."

Zhou Qi smiled and said, "In the financial circle and traditional industries, risks and returns always go hand in hand.

All I did was follow the trend, and of course, timing was crucial. So far, I’ve been pretty lucky.”

He spoke modestly, attributing his success to luck.

Mr. Li understood what Zhou Qi meant, but the situation was delicate and Zhou Qi did not intend to reveal more.

After all, predicting major changes in Hong Kong's real estate market in the next one or two years is not only rash, but the Li family may not necessarily buy it.

Although the cooperation in the stock market has increased the Li family's trust in him, it will take time to establish a deeper cooperative relationship.

Simply put, now is not the time to call a spade a spade.

Zhou Qi simply hinted that every step he took was based on his understanding of the trend, and when the time to act came, that was when the opportunity arrived, just like his operations in the stock market.

The trust established through the stock market is enough to prove everything. When the time comes, it will be enough for the Li family to give him the same trust as in the stock market.

Mr. Li responded with a smile: "This is not just a matter of luck."

He praised: "You can not only see the benefits, but also the potential risks. It is not easy for young people to do this!"

The two did not discuss further, nor did they make any promises. Every decision of the Li family needs to be carefully considered, after all, one move affects the whole body.

The reason why the Li family has today's status is due to accurate vision and decisive decision-making, rather than blindly following the trend. Even if they saw Zhou Qi's talent in the stock market, they would not rashly follow suit.

The following conversation was relaxed and casual, and Zhou Qi's impression in Mr. Li's mind became better and better.

From the conversation, Mr. Li felt that Zhou Qi was modest, calm, not impatient and sincere. These excellent qualities are hard to find in many young people.

Summary in one sentence: Very good!

After the meal, they drank tea and chatted for a while, and then Mr. Li left first. Considering his age, he maintained a regular life and work schedule.

Zhou Qi also expressed his desire to leave. Although Li Zihong had already prepared guest rooms for him and even had an extra villa for him to live in, Zhou Qi felt that it was inappropriate to live in someone else's home on their first meeting.

Seeing that Zhou Qi insisted, Li Zihong no longer tried to keep him, but instead arranged for someone to book a month's hotel accommodation for Zhou Qi, showing enough generosity.

Li Zihong finished the tasks at hand and prepared to get down to work.

As the head of the Li family, he has to deal with a large amount of documents and affairs every day. He cannot easily hand over the management of his business to others like some people.

Given his status, he cannot always revolve around young man Zhou Qi. Not only is this inappropriate, but it will also not sound good if it gets out.

In comparison, it would be more appropriate to let Li Jiaxin and Li Jianan, who are of similar age to Zhou Qi, accompany him. This would not only be impolite, but also allow more communication between young people.

Therefore, Li Zihong specially arranged for Li Jiaxin to accompany Zhou Qi throughout his stay in Hong Kong.

He also told Li Jianan to study with Zhou Qi during this period and not to hang out with friends all the time, hoping to motivate Li Jianan and see the excellence of his peers.

Although Zhou Qi was somewhat resistant to Li Jianan's joining at first, considering Li Zihong's attitude, he finally accepted this arrangement.

After all, Li Zihong is Li Jianan's father, so he has to give him face.

Li Jiaxin personally drove her white BMW to take Zhou Qi to the hotel. The car was worth more than one million yuan, which was a very low-key choice considering her status.

On the way, Li Jiaxin turned around and asked Zhou Qi: "Can I ask you a question?"

"Of course." Zhou Qi replied.

"Can you really communicate with horses?" Li Jiaxin asked curiously. She had never understood why the wild horse was so obedient to Yu Zhouqi.

Zhou Qi smiled. He didn’t expect Li Jiaxin to ask this question, but he felt that a smart person like her shouldn’t be confused about it.

"Well, we can have some simple conversations." Zhou Qi explained.

If someone else had said this, Li Jiaxin would definitely not have believed it, but Zhou Qi had already made her witness several incredible things.

"So, what did the horse say?" Li Jiaxin asked.

Zhou Qi chuckled and said, "It said that it didn't want me to embarrass myself in front of a beautiful lady like you. Plus, I'm handsome, so it liked my appearance, so it reluctantly agreed."
