A proud girl like Tian Xiner, who was born with a golden spoon in her mouth, was born with a golden chopstick in her hand. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is very popular within the Chen family.
Although she was still in her first year of college and was not yet of marriageable age, it was not too early to fall in love in an era where primary school students were open to love.
The blind date between Tian Xiner and Ye Shaolong was proposed by Chen Ping, but it was proposed a month or two ago, and it has been delayed until now for the two to officially meet, if the previous one is not counted.
Tian Xiner is studying in college, but she is also studying at a local university in Yanjing. Not only is she very free when there are no classes, but she also goes home to live on weekends.
But that's it, Chen Ping delayed it for two months, secretly intending to prevent Tian Xiner from going on a blind date with anyone else, leaving it to Ye Shaolong.
Tian Xin and his wife have always encouraged Tian Xin'er to be independent. As long as the person Tian Xin'er likes is not bad, they will not take care of her. Moreover, even if they want to take care of her, Tian Xin'er is not yet old enough to be under strict supervision.
They saw that their daughter Tian Xiner didn't like it very much and even resisted the blind date, so they were happy about it.
But other people within the Chen Department were not happy, and Chen Ping's actions clearly showed favoritism.
If Ye Shaolong hadn't come back this time, Chen Ping probably wouldn't have been able to find any excuse to silence others. But even if Ye Shaolong came back, it didn't mean that some people who had been grudges for a long time would jump out to express their dissatisfaction.
"Zhang Xiong!" Zhang Hanyu slapped his own son who was openly competing with Ye Shaolong for a blind date while everyone was eating.
"No matter how old or young you are, can anyone talk to grandpa like you?"
After Zhang Hanyu finished training his son, he quickly apologized to Chen Ping and said, "Dad, I'm sorry, it's okay for me to discipline him!"
Zhang Hanyu, the younger brother of Ye Shaolong's stepmother, was supposed to be called uncle, but it was a pity that Ye Shaolong didn't even want to call that woman, so how could he call him uncle, and the woman's absence coincided with his wishes.
Zhang Hanyu's parents are gone. It can be said that he is the one who calls the shots in the Zhang family now. With the death of his parents and the collapse of the Zhang family, he couldn't help but make the choice to get closer to the Chen family. From then on, he will call Chen Ping dad!
"It's okay. What Zhang Xiong said makes sense. This is no longer the old society. In the words of their young people, it's fair competition!"
Chen Ping was a little surprised by Zhang Xiong's sudden appearance, but not too surprised. There was Zhang Hanyu's intention behind it, and he was not old enough not to notice it.
The current Chen system seems to be impregnable, but only he, the person at the helm, has the deepest understanding that the Chen system has actually become divided among the heroes. If something goes wrong with him, the Chen system will not be able to find one.
Someone who can convince people.
It is precisely because of this that the overt and covert fighting within the Chen Department can be said to have never stopped, and the internal friction has also plunged the already fragile Chen Department into a vicious cycle, unable to move forward.
So when dealing with this kind of matter, even if Chen Ping preferred Ye Shaolong, he didn't have to weigh too much to ensure this delicate fairness and be impartial.
"Grandpa is right. What Brother Zhang said has his own reasons. Xin'er also has her right to choose. I absolutely agree."
What Ye Shaolong said was neither subtle nor clear. He did not say that he wanted to compete fairly with Zhang Xiong. On the surface, it sounded like he was asking Tian Xiner to decide whether to give Zhang Xiong this opportunity. In fact, a more sophisticated person could vaguely tell that Ye Shaolong did not.
I plan to personally give this opportunity to Zhang Xiong.
After hearing Ye Shaolong's words, Tian Xin and his wife looked at each other and smiled at the same time. They both saw a hint of admiration in each other's eyes. They had a passionate drive that was not afraid of competition, and they also had the emotional intelligence and conversational skills to maintain all aspects.
"Grandpa, they are not objects. They have gone too far. Why should we let them fight over each other?" But Tian Xiner was not happy when she heard Ye Shaolong's words and said to Chen Ping coquettishly.
It's not like this kind of thing has never happened before, but this time Zhang Xiong jumped earlier and higher.
In the past, no one would give the other a chance to get in first, but what is Ye Shaolong's attitude today?
It’s okay if you want it or not. It’s obvious that you don’t regard yourself as a treasure, but as a piece of grass!
Chen Ping chuckled, Tian Xiner's words helped him invisibly, and said with a smile: "Okay! Grandpa will make the decision for you. You can follow whoever you like. Whoever dares to bother my little girl Xin, I will do it for you, old man."
You deal with him!"
"Thank you, grandpa!" Tian Xiner then sat down with a smile and satisfaction.
How could the Zhang family's father and son not expect that the old man would follow Tian Xiner's words and give them a killing blow?
Although no one said not to give Zhang Xiong a chance, but judging from this situation, Zhang Xiong really can't get involved at this time, otherwise a big hat of annoying people will be put on him.
But for other people, it is a good message. The old man is only targeting Zhang Xiong. As long as Tian Xiner doesn't find them annoying, those who are brave enough still have a reason to get involved.
Of course Zhang Hanyu knew this, and after all the hard work, he ended up making a wedding dress for someone else. No matter how calm he was, he just took a sip of wine.
The Zhang family has one girl and two boys. Except for Zhang Hanyu, Zhang Ziyi, the brother of Ye Shaolong's stepmother, is not involved in the official circles, but he can be considered a member of the system and is the kind of person who relies on the system to make a lot of money.
He has two sons. The eldest son is his designated future heir to the company. The second son, Zhang Lang, is only two years older than Ye Shaolong, but he has stopped studying a long time ago.
It would be fine if Zhang Lang was a peaceful person and never had to worry about life in his life. However, he was resentful of his father's favoritism towards his elder brother, and was not willing to be ridden by his elder brother all his life, so he decided to try his luck within the system.
Later, he was assigned to a state-owned enterprise by his brother-in-law, and he did well in the past two years. He obviously had the momentum to catch up with Zhang Xiong, but he suffered from the lack of favorable treatment from the Zhang family.
At this time, I was secretly happy to see Zhang Xiong, whose IQ and EQ were much lower than mine, showing off his power over Ye Shaolong!
After the meal, Ye Shaolong felt overwhelmed by the depressing and lethargic atmosphere that may have been formed over a long period of time, and he was even more at a loss as he was not used to speaking Mandarin.
However, apart from the small episode just now, there were no other disturbances during the period.
Judging from the expressions of Tian Xin and his wife after the meal, Ye Shaolong made a pretty good impression on them.
The heroine's family on the blind date all left, and of course the other people who came to join in the fun also withdrew.
"Where is the person?" Chen Ping originally wanted to give Ye Shaolong something else, but in the blink of an eye he couldn't find the person.
Chen Zhong shook his head, saying that he didn't know either. After hesitating for a moment, he still said: "Master, I always feel that the young master is a bit drunk when he comes back this time."
Chen Ping smiled knowingly. He had guessed this a long time ago. Although he was not sure why Ye Shaolong came back, he definitely did not come back specifically for a blind date, let alone to see him.
"Leave it to him!"
Outside the Chen family's mansion.
Ye Shaolong caught up with Zhang Lang, who intentionally or unintentionally fell behind and seemed very withdrawn.
"Brother, are you interested in chatting?"
Zhang Lang was looking angrily at the group of so-called relatives walking in front of him. In his heart, he hated himself for being reborn too late and for being reborn in the wrong mother's womb, resulting in the situation where his father did not love his mother.
Suddenly he heard a voice ringing in his ears. He was startled at first, and then he was stunned again when he turned around and saw that it was Ye Shaolong.
After pondering for a while, he nodded.
"Get in your car!" Ye Shaolong said. There was no suitable place to talk around here. Secondly, he didn't want too many people to see him having private contact with Zhang Lang.
Of course he has nothing to be ashamed of, but he doesn't want others to use his power to cause trouble for him.
Zhang Lang was still confused, but he got in the car without saying anything.
At a young age but already serving as the deputy general manager of a holding subsidiary of Huaneng Group, he would not simply think that Ye Shaolong was an easy-to-knead clay Buddha just after he stepped through the door of the Chen family today.
Although Ye Shaolong was restricted by his age and was destined not to hold any important position within the Chen family, he also knew that only his uncle Zhang Hanyu in the Zhang family could show off in front of the Chen family's grandson who was a few years younger than him.
And although he was not so humble, he was not qualified to show his expression to Ye Shaolong.
Tian Xiner not only matures early, but also studies early. She is the same age as Zhang Lang, so Zhang Lang and Zhang Xiong, who is two years older than Zhang Lang, are both blind dates that the Tian family can consider.
Regarding the blind date between Tian Xiner and Ye Shaolong, it was impossible for Zhang Lang, who was not big-minded, not to have any feelings at all, so even though he was full of doubts, he was unwilling to speak first and just drove around blindly.
"Brother, your car is nice!" Ye Shaolong had no need to be humble in front of Zhang Lang, and he had no intention of getting close to him, so he used such a title that seemed to be affectionate but was actually distant.
Hearing what Ye Shaolong said, Zhang Lang, who was scolded by his uncle not long ago because of the car incident and deliberately slowed down his promotion speed, couldn't help but feel that he had finally found a soulmate, but in fact he just found a good outlet to vent his anger.
"What a pity! Some people think that its background is not good, what happened to the crazy field, what happened to the domestic products, after all, it is still produced by our joint venture factory!"
Anyway, Ye Shaolong had just returned to Chen's house and didn't understand the situation and couldn't understand who he was complaining about, so Zhang Lang didn't mind taking the opportunity to vent his dissatisfaction with his brother-in-law Zhang Hanyu.
Ye Shaolong was slightly startled. He originally knew that Zhang Lang drove the Erqi Crazy Field, so he thought it was a very good idea to start a conversation. However, he did not expect that Zhang Lang would complain as soon as he started talking.
It’s really just a random throw of bricks that attracts jade!
He didn't care about Zhang Lang's complaints. He had only found out through Yan Qingwu and the others that Zhang Lang had a close relationship with the senior officials of Erqi Crazy Field. As for the relationship, he didn't have enough time to find out.
I originally wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect it to happen unintentionally. Of course, Ye Shaolong would not let this opportunity go.
"Listen to what my brother said, I'm quite fond of this crazy field! I've always been friends with the people from Erqi Crazy Field!"
When Zhang Lang heard Ye Shaolong's words, he immediately became vigilant. Just now, he thought that Ye Shaolong didn't know much about the Zhang family, so he said that call. But now, listening to the meaning of his words, it seems that he already knew that he was related to the Zhang family.
The person from Erqi Crazy Field had an affair, and he knew about the car purchase.
Thinking of this, Zhang Lang couldn't sit still and secretly cursed himself for being such a pig. How could this Long Sun be a bumpkin? Otherwise, he wouldn't have returned to the Chen family to seize power.
Ye Shaolong wanted to say something, but he clearly felt that Zhang Lang had a hint of hostility towards him. He couldn't help but be confused. However, he vaguely felt that there must be something wrong with what he just said. He secretly sighed to himself about these officials.
Are my kids good at socializing?
However, the mind-reading ability cannot be used from a distance, and tapping on the shoulder seems too abrupt.
In desperation, Ye Shaolong had no choice but to ask directly: "I wonder if my brother can introduce some acquaintances to me? I'm also thinking about buying a car!"
Zhang Lang didn't expect this to be the case. He was a little surprised, but he could also tell that Ye Shaolong was not just buying a car.
Having always pursued rewards, he couldn't help but have a bold idea in his mind. After much hesitation, he slowly said, "No problem, if brother also introduces Xin'er to me."
