Wen Ying vaguely remembered that before He Zhen's call, Xie Qian said he had something to tell her.
What's going on?
Wen Ying was thinking about what Xie Qian had not had time to say, and then thinking about the call from He Zhen.
Xie Qian said that, He Zhen would definitely ask Dai Chenglan for confirmation. There would probably be a conflict between mother and son, and then... Wen Ying couldn't think of "and then."
It is already rare for He Zhen not to join forces with his biological mother, Dai Chenglan. It seems a bit unrealistic for He Zhen to take a clear stand against Dai Chenglan.
Anyway, He Zhen always respected Dai Chenglan in his previous life!
Wen Ying thought wrong again.
She always uses "Mr. Xiao He" from her previous life to trick the current He Zhen, which is of course not allowed.
He Zhen was about to go to the UK to complete his final year of undergraduate studies. Before leaving, he called Xie Qian and received Xie Qian's reply. He Zhen was also at war with each other in his heart.
On the phone, Rebecca sighed softly: "I reminded you that this is Pandora's box. You opened the box and released the devil. How should you face it now?"
"I won't run away from it."
He Zhen heard the worry in Rebecca's tone, "If I have a falling out with my family, I will return to England as soon as possible."
Of course Rebecca welcomes He Zhen to return to the UK. In fact, He Zhen started his own business during his undergraduate studies. Rebecca even feels that He Zhen is a little too anxious.
Having family support is the icing on the cake. Without family support, He Zhen should focus on his studies.
Without the support of his family, it is easier to see whether He Zhen has the ability to do business. The premise is that He Zhen must protect his own life.
Rebecca joked to lighten the mood: "I can support you financially if you need it, but you have to provide me with a detailed repayment plan!"
He Zhen laughed: "So you are my retreat?"
Rebecca denied the idea of retreat. She insisted that she was a descendant of bankers and was born with the shrewdness of a banker and was good at increasing the value of her wealth:
"Trust me, interest will give you a headache!"
He Zhen was not afraid at all and was very touched.
Given the social background in which Rebecca grew up, couples may not share wealth, let alone boyfriends and girlfriends.
She is willing to lend money to He Zhen to tide over the difficulties, instead of asking He Zhen to find a bank loan to go to school. She really loves He Zhen very much.
Having such a girlfriend made He Zhen feel warm. The two exchanged some private words of love. He Zhen packed his suitcases, and He Zhinian and Dai Chenglan returned home together.
The couple had just finished entertaining friends.
Coincidentally, there is He Zhen's little dad at the dinner party tonight.
"He Zhen, you were right not to go, but you wouldn't be happy to see him if you did."
He Zhinian felt that this friend was becoming more and more out of character.
All the bosses brought their first wives to the dinner tonight, but this friend brought his female secretary. This made the friends very embarrassed, and the first wives didn't know how to talk to the female secretary.
He Zhinian couldn't speak up at the dinner party, so he revealed his true feelings in front of his wife and children when he got home, and severely criticized his friend.
Dai Chenglan felt that her husband was too nagging: "Okay, I don't have much business dealings with him anymore. Just bear with it if you can't see him twice a year! Don't you see that others are also tolerant? Many friends are better than many enemies."
, there is no need to break up over such a thing."
In the past, He Zhen would have joined his father He Zhinian in criticizing that "uncle". He Zhen was particularly silent tonight, and He Zhenian was surprised and couldn't help but look at his son twice.
"He Zhen, are you worried about 'Slan'?"
He Zhinian gently advised: "Dad knows that you have put in a lot of effort in 'Slan', and it is normal that you can't let go of it for a while. However, your studies in the UK have not yet been completed. Dad believes that you can distinguish what is important."
He Zhinian hoped He Zhen wouldn't be anxious.
The only son of the He family is He Zhen. Sooner or later, He Zhen will take over the family business. ‘Si Lan’ does have a bright future, but he can’t give up on his studies just because he’s busy with the company!
This is He Zhinian.
Compared with the "uncle" who cheated on his female secretary, He Zhinian was too good to protect his wife and children's interests, and he would never make his wife and children feel uncomfortable because of wild women outside.
The prerequisite for preventing his wife and children from being pitied and bullied by others is that He Zhinian must first clean himself up!
Dai Chenglan was going to check He Zhen's luggage and took out a box from the house, which contained a gem necklace:
"Take it to England and give it to Rebecca."
Since knowing that Rebecca can look for technical support for 'Slan' abroad, Dai Chenglan seems to have forgotten her previous advice to He Zhen to carefully consider dating Rebecca. Dai Chenglan, who has changed her mind, is not interested in the "future mother-in-law"
He knows his identity very well and prepares gifts for Rebecca from time to time.
Rebecca was not aware of Dai Chenglan's inconsistent attitude. She simply felt that He Zhen's mother was very enthusiastic and interpreted it as the cultural difference between the two countries. While receiving the gift happily, she did not forget to mail Dai Chenglan a return gift from the UK!
The biggest obstacle that prevented He Zhen and Rebecca from consummating their relationship seems to have disappeared.
As long as He Zhen continues to turn a blind eye and not pursue the behind-the-scenes transactions between the He family and Kumho Group, then He Zhen will have a family and relationship that others can envy.
Feeling the concern of his father He Zhinian and looking at the gift box handed over by his mother Dai Chenglan, for a moment, He Zhen really hesitated and couldn't bear to expose this beautiful illusion.
Is it worth it to question your parents about other people’s family matters?
Maybe it's not worth it... If you don't ask, this thorn will always stick in He Zhen's throat, making him uncomfortable all the time.
The transformation from a boy to a man lies in the courage to take responsibility and the courage to explore the truth.
He Zhen did not pick up the gift box, but gently pushed Dai Chenglan's hand away:
"Mom, do you know Sara Zhuo?"
Dai Chenglan was stunned, and so was He Zhinian.
This is so sudden!
He Zhinian was the first to come to his senses and understood the reason why his son He Zhen was particularly silent tonight... Oh my God, He Zhen already knew it!
That's really unfortunate.
On the one hand, He Zhen already knew that the He family had obtained investment from Kumho Group through Sara Zhuo. On the other hand, He Zhinian met the friend of the cheating female secretary and expressed his disgust at this behavior in front of He Zhen.
What is this called?
This is called inconsistent words and deeds, extreme division!
He Zhinian was ashamed and felt that most of his image in his son's heart had collapsed. He turned around and begged his wife with his eyes, hoping that Dai Chenglan would preserve the last bit of his image for him.
Dai Chenglan did not receive her husband's request for help.
After a brief moment of astonishment, Dai Chenglan was very angry:
"I said you were acting weird tonight, but it turns out there was a reason! Why, as a mother, I know who I don't know, do I need to report it to you?"
——Oh, it turns out we really know each other.
Those guesses are all true.
"Because you know Sara Zhuo, Kumho Group will invest in our family's business. When Slan was established, in addition to our family and Zhao Dong, there was also a mysterious shareholder who held 20% of the shares. That was the boss of Kumho Group.
Illegitimate child. I thought my family had no shortage of food and clothing, so I wouldn’t be someone else’s bitch just for money——”
Snapped.
Before He Zhen could finish his words, he was slapped by Dai Chenglan.
"Chenglan!"
He Zhinian was anxious, while Dai Chenglan's chest was heaving and she was panting: "Yes, you bitch, what you said is really good. Without bitchy parents like me and your father, how would you get the money to study abroad? How would you have the money to chase girls?"
, you have enjoyed the generous life provided by your family, and now you can loudly criticize me and your father!"
"Don't scold him, let me talk to him."
He Zhinian wanted to talk to his son about the difficulties of being an adult.
He Zhinian was reluctant to accept the investment from Kumho Group at first because the He family's business was in trouble.
If the funding problem was not solved at that time, the He family would not be able to smoothly upgrade and transform, and it would easily fall into ruin.
He Zhen didn't want to hear it.
He didn't argue with his parents and left home with his suitcase.
He Zhen's back was straight, and Dai Chenglan smashed the box in his hand, causing the gem necklace to fall into pieces.
"Go away, don't come back if you can, and don't use our money again!"
