He Tiantian also felt that Tang Qian was a natural businessman. She couldn't let Tang Qian's private life prejudice him against his business acumen and cause Fuxi Auto to lose a good partner.
"Thank you very much, niece-in-law," Tang Qian said with a smile. From He Tiantian's change in address, it was clear that her opinion of him had changed somewhat.
Tang Qian was a shrewd man. He understood that in He Tiantian's eyes, he was an absolute scoundrel! But he had some talent in business, and given the relationship between the two families, she had to give him face since he had come to her door.
"No need to thank me," He Tiantian said. "Anyway, it's just an introduction. Whether it works out or not is not up to me."
Aunt Guo finished preparing the food and said, "Sweetie, the food is ready. Can we eat now?"
"That's enough, I'm actually hungry," He Tiantian said with a smile, without trying to stop Tang Qian.
Now that the matter has been discussed, Tang Qian felt it was inappropriate to stay for dinner.
"Alright, that's all for now, I'll head back first," Tang Qian said. "By the way, Tian Tian, what time are we meeting tomorrow? And where?"
"At the International Hotel, at nine o'clock," He Tiantian said, directly instructing Tang Qian to go there.
Seeing that He Tiantian was somewhat impatient with Tang Qian, Huo Yingjie thought about the recent alliance between the Huo and Tang families and said with a smile, "It's almost mealtime, Fourth Uncle, you should eat before you go back. If Grandfather finds out that you came to my house and didn't invite me to stay for dinner, he'll probably say I'm being inconsiderate."
The Huo family also showed full respect to the Tang family.
Although Old Master Tang was shrewd and calculating, he never harmed the Huo family. In fact, he secretly helped them. This was not only because Old Master Huo had saved his life before, but also because Old Master Tang rarely made enemies and was the kind of person who quietly rose through the ranks and made a fortune.
The Li family is probably the family the Tang family has offended the most.
Even after the divorce, the Li family gained significant resources from the Tang family, as well as all of Tang Qian's assets, enough to make up for all the troubles the Tang family had gone through.
Therefore, the Tang family's reputation has recently recovered somewhat because of these two incidents.
Seeing that Huo Yingjie had spoken, He Tiantian didn't want to send him away.
Furthermore, He Tiantian didn't understand political matters, but she knew it was best not to offend anyone, especially when others were down on their luck.
Tang Qian is in a rather down-on-his-luck situation now, but the Tang family is still around, and a comeback is just around the corner.
Even if they don't cooperate with Foch Motors, there will probably be other projects.
"Don't be so polite, Uncle Xiao Si. Yingjie, please take Uncle Xiao Si to the dining room first. I'll help serve the dishes," He Tiantian said. Putting aside Tang Qian's old grievances, she couldn't refuse to treat the guests who had come to visit.
Tang Qian was hoping to get closer to He Tiantian and Huo Yingjie, so how could he let such a good opportunity slip by?
"Hehe, I'm really hungry," Tang Qian said. "The aroma coming from the kitchen makes me even hungrier. Thanks, Yingjie, sweetie."
He Tiantian smiled and said, "You're welcome."
Huo Yingjie called to Tang Qian, and He Tiantian settled the two children in chairs, put bibs on them, and let them eat by themselves.
Seeing the two children with their chubby cheeks, Tang Qian was delighted.
"Oh, Yingjie, I'm a year younger than you, and your son and daughter are already so grown up. I'm so envious," Tang Qian said with a sigh. If he and Li Gongru had fallen in love and married, perhaps they would have been just as happy.
What's done is done; who knows what it would be like to do it all over again?
Huo Yingjie looked at his son, daughter, and wife with affection and said, "Actually, you could find a woman you deeply love, start a family, have children, and have a harmonious and peaceful home. That would also help your career, wouldn't it?"
Tang Qian listened and said with a wry smile, "Yingjie, I won't lie in front of you and Tiantian. I don't know why, but it's hard for me to be deeply and long-lasting with a woman. Actually, every time I'm with a girl, I think that this is the last one, but I don't know why, after a while I get tired of her. I really don't want to hurt them."
Upon hearing this, He Tiantian's face almost turned black; he was definitely a scumbag.
If it weren't for the relationship between the two families, He Tiantian would have really wanted to take Tang Qian's job and get rid of him.
To prevent such an irresponsible and philandering person from corrupting Huo Yingjie.
Huo Yingjie looked at Tang Qian and realized that the "peach blossom evil" on his face was not something he was born with. Could it be due to some artificial factors?
However, Huo Yingjie was too lazy to help Tang Qian ward off the bad luck associated with romance.
"People used to say that you're destined to have many romantic encounters, maybe that's you." Although Huo Yingjie wasn't going to help, he still wanted to offer a friendly reminder, hoping to make a good connection.
Peach Blossom Curse?
Tang Qian stared in disbelief and asked, "Yingjie, you still believe in this? Isn't that feudal superstition?"
Huo Yingjie was utterly disdainful. He said it was one thing to disbelieve, but to call it feudal superstition was just asking for trouble. He deserved to be plagued by romantic entanglements his whole life.
“You said it yourself, you didn’t do it on purpose, and you didn’t mean to hurt them. You also want a lasting love,” He Tiantian said. “But you did do these things. Afterwards, you felt that it wasn’t your intention, but it was too late. Once it happened, twice it happened. If it’s not the legendary bad luck with women, then you’re just a promiscuous person at heart, and you don’t even admit it yourself.”
He Tiantian's words were quite sharp!
This left Tang Qian speechless for a moment, then he smiled wryly and said, "To prove that I'm not a scumbag, I also need to find a famous master to take a look at me."
"Hehe, you found this yourself, we were just joking," He Tiantian said with a smile. Others might not believe it, but she did.
Huo Yingjie asked about some other things, and he and Tang Qian had a very pleasant conversation.
After finishing his meal and resting for a few minutes, Tang Qian said goodbye and left.
After Tang Qian left, He Tiantian, with something on her mind, cautiously asked, "Brother Yingjie, why did you say that Tang Qian is destined to be plagued by romantic entanglements?"
Huo Yingjie smiled and said, "His face does indeed show signs of a 'peach blossom curse,' and I just took a closer look. Tang Qian might have some emotional entanglements with Zheng Min. If he doesn't get rid of this curse, it will be Zheng Min who suffers in the future."
"Zhengmin?" He Tiantian was taken aback. Although Qi Zhengmin was not her biological sister, she was almost the same.
"Yes," Huo Yingjie laughed. "If Zhengmin hadn't come to Yanjing, nothing would have happened. But she did come anyway, and her appearance has changed. She looks like she's about to have a romantic encounter. I only found out today that Tang Qian is the target of our operation."
"No! Absolutely not!" He Tiantian exclaimed excitedly. "Tomorrow I was planning to take Tang Qian to see Zheng Han and Zheng Min, but I never expected that what I sent wasn't a business partner, but a big bad wolf who's going to steal Little Red Riding Hood! And a promiscuous one at that."
Huo Yingjie smiled, knowing that He Tiantian would be nervous.
