“No!” Chen Zihan shook her head and said, “I still hope he can go to university.”
“Why?” Yang Xiaoyan furrowed her brows and then said, “Your mom already said this, and you still want him to go to university? The urgent matter is to quickly meet your mom’s requirements.”
“Xiao Han’s grades are so good, he will definitely be able to get into a good university!” Chen Zihan earnestly said, “If he can graduate from a major domestic university, I believe his future achievements will absolutely not be just this little.”
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaoyan seemed to think there was some truth to it.
“But...” Yang Xiaoyan furrowed her brows and then said, “But if that happens, won’t you have to part ways?”
“Perhaps, parting is only temporary,” Chen Zihan shook her head.
“Then... will you tell him?” Yang Xiaoyan asked.
“No!” Chen Zihan shook her head and said, “I can’t tell him. I definitely can’t tell him, I’m afraid he will be heartbroken, I’m afraid he will be upset. If it affects his grades, wouldn’t that be a betrayal to him?”
“Oh, you girl, why do you always think of others first?” Yang Xiaoyan furrowed her brows.
“What should we do?” Chen Zihan wiped away tears.
At that moment, Xiao Han walked over from afar, carrying a backpack, his expression also seemed somewhat grave. Yang Xiaoyan saw it from a distance as Chen Zihan walked toward them. She hurriedly said, “He’s here, Xiao Han is here!”
“Mhm.” Chen Zihan nodded, then, she walked forward to meet Xiao Han.
Xiao Han showed a slight smile and then said, “Zi Han, why are you here?”
“I’m here waiting for you!” Chen Zihan’s eyes were red.
“Waiting for me?” Xiao Han was slightly stunned, but he quickly remembered something. He glanced at her and then said, “Did your mom talk to you?”
“Exactly!” Yang Xiaoyan quickly interjected and then said, “Xiao Han, do you know how embarrassed you made Chen Zihan feel?”
“What happened?” Xiao Han frowned.
“The Chen family has already spoken,” Yang Xiaoyan started, “If you want to be with Chen Zihan, you must first buy an apartment, and then get ready a car worth more than two hundred thousand. That’s just the basic requirement.”
“Is that so?” Xiao Han asked.
“Don’t listen to her,” Chen Zihan shook her head and then said, “I have never demanded that of you. I just hope you can love me, that’s enough.”
“Fool, of course I love you!” Xiao Han nodded.
Chen Zihan’s eyes turned red, she threw herself into Xiao Han’s arms, and then said, “I love you too, I hope I can always be with you!”
Xiao Han could feel Chen Zihan’s body trembling, likewise, he could also feel Chen Zihan crying. Xiao Han gently patted Chen Zihan’s body, soothing her with a soft voice, “Don’t worry, everything will get better.”
“Mhm!” Chen Zihan nodded.
Outside, many people were curiously staring at them. Among the crowd, many were making a ruckus. However, faced with the jeering crowd, Xiao Han didn’t care, nor did he mind. Chen Zihan also didn’t care.
“Fourth Master, why did you agree to that young man?” Li Shan curiously asked, “Forty-nine percent of the stocks in Hanmen Technology aren’t worth twenty million. This... we’re at too much of a loss!”
“Hehe...” Liu Si chuckled and then said, “Loss or not, I know what I’m doing!”
“This...” Li Shan looked at Liu Si in surprise, then said, “Fourth Master, our money didn’t just wash up on the shore.”
“Twenty million isn’t much for us!” Liu Si smiled slightly and then said, “But for Xiao Han, that amount is astronomical. I’m curious what he can achieve with this money. If he meets my expectations, then I might add more to my investment.”
“Sss...”
Li Shan sucked in a breath of cold air, then said, “My Fourth Master, even if you add more investment, Xiao Han won’t possibly give you any shares.”
“What does that matter?” Liu Si shook his head and then said, “That’s hardly anything. If Xiao Han’s capabilities are sufficient, then he will be able to bring us enough profit, don’t you think?”
“Seems reasonable!” Li Shan nodded.
“Xiao Han is talented!” Liu Si grinned, biting into an apple and then said, “This kid is brave and strategic. A high school student, yet he managed to secure the Apple product dealership from that woman Li Xiaoya. How many people in LJ City want a piece of that lucrative deal? Yet, it was this kid who got it. So, we absolutely shouldn’t underestimate him, understand?”
“Yes!” Li Shan nodded.
“So, what has this kid been up to lately?” Liu Si asked.
“He hasn’t been up to much!” Li Shan shook his head and said, “His account increased by twenty million, but he hasn’t bought a car or a house, still living in that dilapidated building in Fuxing Community.”
“Hmm?” Liu Si paused slightly and then said, “This shows he can withstand the temptation of money, a capacity that is truly valuable. What about his company?”
“At Hanmen Technology, they seem to have hired a culinary agent,” Li Shan quickly said, “It looks like they’re preparing to start Hanmen Catering. Planning to make a splash in LJ City’s restaurant industry!”
“Haha...” Upon hearing this, Liu Si waved his hand dismissively and said, “You’re exaggerating. It’s impossible to make a mark on LJ City’s restaurant scene without a couple of hundred million. Just with those twenty million, it’s definitely not possible to make a significant impact on LJ City.”
“True that!” Li Shan nodded.
At that moment, Liu Si smiled and said, “I’m quite looking forward to seeing what Xiao Han can do.”
“Fourth Master, don’t set your expectations too high,” Li Shan chuckled, “Perhaps it’s just luck for Xiao Han.”
“Success once is luck, success twice is strength,” Liu Si smiled and said, “A mule or a horse, taken out for a stroll will show what it can do. So, for now, let’s just wait and see.”
“Yes!” Li Shan nodded.
Liu Si was very interested in Xiao Han. Of course, what interested him even more was why Brother Bao would go out of his way at all costs to save Xiao Han. Initially, if it wasn’t for him leading his men to storm the Five Thousand Years Entertainment Club, Xiao Han might have ended up with a broken arm. Thinking back, it seemed there wasn’t much connection between Brother Bao and Xiao Han.
Yet, what exactly was the relationship between the two?
Liu Si was extremely curious.
“By the way, have you figured out what exactly is the relationship between Xiao Han and Leopard?” Liu Si asked.
“Not yet!” Li Shan shook his head and said, “The relationship is hidden too deeply. Our people embedded with Brother Bao have completely failed to dig up any clues!”
