"Wait for . I will wash my face and then tell you what happened," said Zhai Heng. He indeed looked quite awful. Seeing this, Han Ruochen nodded, and the man hurried over to the gents, where he splashed cold water on his face. Only then did he feel a bit better. Once he started to feel better, he turned around on his feet and then walked out of the washroom. His face was dripping wet. "I owe you for the second ti. I have to thank you for what happened today; if not for your help, I am sure that I would have missed this eting. I am sincerely indebted to you. There is no way I can ever repay you."
Zhai Heng was determined to perform well in this eting; as long as he could deal with these clients and make them sign the contract, his grandfather would be able to see him in a new light. Because of this, he paid extra attention to this eting. But who would have thought that even after being so careful, he would still be sched against? It seed like he was still too naive, he thought with a look of dejection on his face.
"The eting did not go well?"
"How can that be?" Zhai Heng shook his head and stated, "I have been preparing for this eting for a long ti, and I listened to your suggestion and added a few more pointers after reviewing the docunts. There was nothing wrong with what I presented in front of the clients today." He was certain that he perford quite well during the eting.
"As long as you did well, that’s all that matters. The eting and the clients are your top priority right now. As for everything else, you should leave it alone for the ti being. You must have heard about the saying that goes, ’Revenge is best served cold.’ You should pay more attention to what is important." Han Ruochen did not probe when she saw the dishevelled look of the man. She knew that there was sothing amiss with the current situation, but she decided to keep it in her heart.
"You are right, I will first deal with the clients and then talk about other things later on." Zhai Heng wiped off the water droplets on his face and head with his sleeves and went to look for his clients. By the ti he was done sending them away, Han Ruochen felt really tired.
Han Ruochen was thinking about whether to go back ho and look for Zhai Heng so other day when she saw him return. He still looked a bit troubled but seed to be in better spirits. It looked like the eting went much better than he had anticipated. "Xiao Ruochen, if you don’t mind, can you co with ?" He knew that if he went back ho alone, then there was a good chance that no one would be willing to listen to him. But if Han Ruochen went with him, then maybe he would be able to put on a strong front.
When Han Ruochen heard that he wanted to take her along, she was quite hesitant. After all, this matter was a family matter. Even if she were to go with Zhai Heng, there was little to nothing she could do. "This, I think its a bit troubleso. I an, this matter is still related to your family and has nothing to do with . What am I even supposed to do?"
"Xiao Ruochen, just co with ." Zhai Heng did not want Han Ruochen to go with him to quarrel with the elders, but he still wished she would co with him; that way, at least he would have the courage to deal with the situation.
Seeing that the man was requesting her sincerely, Han Ruochen could only purse her lips and nod. "Alright, but first you have to do sothing before we can go to your ho."

"Grandpa Zhai." When Han Ruochen arrived at the Zhai family’s residence, she noticed that everyone was at ho, including a few people whom she had not seen.
"Xiao Ruochen is here." Old Master Zhai smiled at Han Ruochen, but when he turned to look at Zhai Heng, he could not help but shoot a disapproving look at him. This boy! Alas, he was getting more and more rebellious with each passing day. Why did he suddenly call everyone to co to the main house? At first, he thought that it was a family ergency, but now Zhai Heng brought Han Ruochen with him. What was he supposed to do now?
"Dad!" Madam Yun pulled a long face. She was more than just displeased with the current situation. "What does Ah Heng an by this? He called and made all that nonsense, and even called for a family ergency. My sister-in-law has been busy since she was young and never had ti to take care of her children, as she was in the military. It was I who took care of these kids, even though I was young myself. And when I got married, even though Taotao was born weak, I took care of Ah Heng instead of Taotao. Now he has forgotten all the grace that I have shown him and is maligning my son. Is this sothing Ah Heng should do?" What was more, he even brought an outsider!
What did he an by this?
’Don’t be so agitated. Ruochen is a sensible girl; she will never do sothing as foolish as speaking nonsense and spreading rumours outside. You don’t need to worry about such things." Old Master Zhai was having a headache. He could not understand why his sensible grandson suddenly turned into a wild wolf; he was determined to bite Yun Tao to death. In his heart, he also believed that Yun Tao would never do anything to harm Zhai Heng; after all, the two of them were brothers but for so reason Zhai Heng was determined to pin this bla on Yun Tao.
