Han Ziyan felt terrible. She had once thought that she would be able to live a life much more comfortable and richer than Han Ruochen, where the woman would have no other choice but to bow her head down in front of her. But who would have thought that just a small mistake would lead to everything being out of control? She gritted her teeth when she thought about how Han Ruochen had hidden the truth about eavesdropping on her conversation with her biological father.
If Han Ruochen had told the truth to her or even let it slip, then she would have prepared a counterattack, but that woman was really good at acting! She was actually able to hide such an important matter from her! Han Ziyan couldn’t help but scold herself for being blind.
Now she couldn’t go back to the county because the chef had clearly stated that he would only allow her to get back into the canteen when she compensated them for the loss of the ingredients. And if she stayed in the village, then Yang Jianming would co looking for her every now and then.
"Nonsense! How can you say that? Am I not good to you?" ng Yunhan gave Han Ziyan a smack with just the right amount of force. "It’s all your sister’s fault. She has hooked up with the Zhai family, but she never asked them to help you or out. If the Zhai family had spoken up, then the two of us would have gotten much better and decent-paying jobs. We wouldn’t have to worry about every penny. That wretched girl is really lucky. It could have been you who saved Zhai Heng, but the one who saved him in the end was that damned girl."
When ng Yunhan saw that Han Ziyan was looking at her with confusion in her eyes, she told her about Zhai Muchen’s visit and the small banquet that Han Ruochen had held in the afternoon.
Han Ziyan gritted her teeth when she heard that Zhai Muchen had co to attend the banquet. She recalled the conversation between her mother and father and realised what was going on. No wonder her mother was so angry. Han Ruochen really did not know how to make use of her connections. She could easily help her and her mother, but she did not even ntion the troubles of their family in front of the Zhai family.
If she had spoken up, would the Zhai family have been so rude that they would have ignored her plight? If Han Ruochen had asked for help, would they have refused? Of course not! They would have helped Han Ruochen at once, but the woman was so cruel that she would rather stay silent than ask the Zhai family for a favour for the two of them.
Han Ruochen was such an eyesore. She did not help her family, yet she was so earnest in helping others. She must be sick!
But after a short while, her eyes lit up and she said to her mother, "Mom, we have to make use of this opportunity for sure."
"What do you an?"
"Mom, even if sister is not willing to help us, it is true that the Zhai family owes a favour." Han Ziyan turned the favour that belonged to only Han Ruochen to the entire Han family. "The next ti we run into the Zhai family, we can ask them for a little favour anyway; saving a life is a favour that cannot be repaid for seven generations!"
The Zhai family were a prominent family; they would definitely be able to get a decent job for her and her mother.
With a decent job, she would be in a much better situation, and Yang Jianming would not bother her either.
"But will that wretched girl agree to it?" ng Yunhan was not sure when she thought about how stubborn Han Ruochen had beco these days; if she told them that she wanted her to ask for a favour from the Zhai family, there was a good chance that the woman would run to complain to her father rather than give in to her.
"Mom, we don’t need to ask sister for her help. I an, no matter what she thinks, you are still her mother. If you use your identity, then that alone could suppress the Zhai family."
Han Ziyan had already planned everything in her mind. She believed that as long as she could get her hands on a good job, then she wouldn’t have to be scared of that jerk. Of course not! She could just use the connection that she had ford with the Zhai family to scare the Yang family away.
She took her mother’s hands in hers and earnestly said to her, "Mom, if we can connect to the Zhai family, then we will never have to lower our heads in front of others. Aren’t the people from the Zhai family really prominent? We can use it to take care of the Yang family."
Moreover, Han Ziyan had a guilty conscience. She had gotten her hands on this job after playing a little sche, which could co out at any ti. She was worried that if she did not jump ship, then that man would not leave her alone. After all, he was not soone she could play with!
She would rather co up with a way to pay the three thousand yuan back and then get her hands on another job, or else she was worried that she might end up getting kicked out of the job without getting anything. If she managed to get out of this predicant without being dragged down by that man, it would be a miracle. She would rather co up with a way to get rid of this job before the pot broke!
"That is true. I really want to deal with the Yang family. They had been causing trouble for a while now, and there is absolutely nothing that I can do to Madam Yang!" ng Yunhan was furious when she thought about the good things that Madam Yang had said to her in the past few days.
