"Sure!"

A flicker of fear crossed Cheng Hao's eyes, but it quickly turned into a resolute expression: "You've just come back and don't know anything. I forced Gao Yan to accept the shares of this hot pot restaurant. I can guarantee that he didn't approach me with any ulterior motives. So, I won't allow you to insult our friendship!"

"Okay, I apologize!"

Tang Ye nodded, then said to Gao Yan, "Gao Yan, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you!"

"It's okay, I understand. I know you're doing this for Haozi's own good!"

Gao Yan shook his head inwardly, realizing his own weakness. Although he had no intention of currying favor with Cheng Hao, his weakness made people think he was.

Cheng Hao was quite surprised, not expecting Tang Yezhen to apologize.

She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Sister, thank you for your understanding!"

Tang Ye waved his hand: "Alright, actually I was just testing you. I've heard about your relationship with Xiao Gao from your aunt. He helped you even though he wasn't doing well himself, which shows he really considers you a friend. You were even willing to get angry with me for him, which means you've really grown up and can stand on your own."

Cheng Hao was deeply moved: "Sister, thank you!"

However, Gao Yan did not completely believe Tang Ye's words. Perhaps she really was testing Cheng Hao, but why involve him? Obviously, she didn't take him seriously!

But he didn't show it, because the barking of the weak is meaningless and only makes them a laughing stock.

The only way is to become strong so that no one will dare to ignore you or humiliate you at will.

"I heard my aunt rave about your hot pot, let me try it first!" Tang Ye said again.

"Sis, believe me, once you've tried it, I guarantee you'll never forget it!"

Cheng Hao quickly replied.
