Li Zhenshu did not answer.
"Since my future mother-in-law dislikes me so much, let's put aside all those deals and cancel this marriage."
"What kind of talk is that?"
President Han couldn't help but speak.
Park Jin Hyuk apologized:
"President Han, I didn't marry Han Ji-yeon because I couldn't find a partner. Despite this, our Park family still showed a positive attitude. Just a few days ago, Director Wu went shopping with Ji-yeon, right?"
Wu Ruiying nodded.
“Well, Jiyeon and I had a great chat the other day.”
"Yes, Mom."
Han Ji-yeon started calling Wu Ruiying "Mom".
Park Jin Hyuk continued:
"But what did Qingyu do? It's not that I can't stand criticism, but you could have said it to me in private. Of course, I blame you for not visiting me in advance, but you wouldn't scold me on a whim like today, right? I don't think I'm that bad."
"Those were the words Director Wu said before..."
"Okay, don't say anything."
Li Zhenshu wanted to explain, but President Han immediately interrupted her.
"That's a bit excessive."
"If those words you just said weren't about breaking off the engagement, then what were they?"
President Han sighed and felt a little regretful that he did not stop his wife.
"I'm really sorry for saying that on this occasion."
"I'm also sorry because what I said just now was so hurtful that's why I responded like that."
Seeing Chairman Han apologize, Park Jin Hyuk also apologized.
"As your son-in-law, I don't ask for special treatment, but I absolutely cannot accept being told what to do. Company matters are already giving me enough headaches, and I don't want to be distracted by family matters... So, President Han and my father, let's forget about this marriage."
"Son-in-law, you really don't plan to get married?"
"I think DS and Qingyu can be considered a good match. Of course, they can't be compared with Samsung. Master's wife is from the Samsung family, right?"
After hearing this, Li Zhenshu frowned.
"Ji Yan, I'm really sorry. I also have self-respect and don't want to be looked down upon by the girl's family, so please understand."
Han Ji-yeon was about to cry.
The resentment that had been pent up in my heart for a long time finally erupted.
She said loudly to Li Zhenshu:
"That's too much. No matter how you treated me, I endured it and didn't say anything. You said Director Wu said Zhenhe? Then what did you say about me to others? ... Father, don't you know?"
"Jiyan, it's not..."
Beads of sweat appeared on President Han's forehead.
"Even if we can divorce after we get married, I can't accept a broken engagement. The wedding is in a month. How am I going to explain it to my relatives and friends? Should I say that I broke off the engagement because Qingyu looked down on Zhenhe? Or that the Samsung family looked down on DS?"
Han Ji-yeon was never a weak person, and today she finally spoke out what she had been suppressing for so long.
"From today on, I'm no longer a member of the Qingyu family. Father, you can live with your own wives. There's no need to hold a wedding for me. I'm moving in with Zhenhe right now. You can just pretend you don't have a daughter like me."
"What do you mean?"
"Are you just going to watch her do this to me? A woman who can't even have children and adopted a concubine's child."
Li Zhenshu's hand holding the water cup trembled.
Han Ji-yeon, who had always been silent, actually began to disparage her in public.
She originally thought that even if she couldn't ruin the marriage, she would at least give Park Jin Hyuk a warning, but she didn't expect that it would backfire on her.
After Lee Jung-sook glanced at Han Ji-yeon, she looked at Park Jin-hyuk coldly, and Park Jin-hyuk smiled slightly.
In fact, he knew very well that this marriage could not be cancelled.
But his intuition told him that Lee Jung-sook might attack him because she was a woman with a strong background and ambition.
Han Ji-yeon told him that this woman was in charge of many things at home, and she must want her future son-in-law to be clear about this.
As expected, Li Zhenshu said such an opening speech as soon as she came up.
Park Jin Hyuk responded immediately, saying that his so-called cancellation of the engagement was just a strategy of retreating to advance.
Sometimes, things in the world are so strange. When you hold on to something, it will move away from you. When you let go and have the courage to give up, it will move towards you.
"I'm always being bullied. I don't want to live like this anymore."
“Jiyeon…”
President Han called out to his daughter.
He kept three wives at home, but that was not his intention.
If his wife could get pregnant and have children, he might not do such a thing.
At first, he didn't want to bring his wife home, but wanted to wait until the child grew up and then bring the child home.
But he didn't expect that after Li Zhenshu learned about this situation, she would take the initiative to let him bring his wife and children back home.
After bringing his wife and children home, he couldn't tell anyone else about this. He could only bear it all on his own and face the criticism from the outside world.
Li Zhenshu won over two concubines from outside the family, and as a result, her power became more and more powerful, and she had to make the decisions on all matters in the family.
She even extended her tentacles into Qingyu Group.
Chairman Han knew he was in the wrong, so he turned a blind eye to what Lee Jung-sook did.
Knowing that Lee Jung-sook could not tolerate Han Ji-yeon, the eldest daughter, Han Jun-hwan prepared a generous dowry and planned to find a good husband for his daughter.
Chairman Han's face darkened, and he said to Li Zhenshu:
"Don't worry about this matter, Zhiyan. I will take care of your marriage."
Then he said to Park Jin Hyuk:
"Son-in-law, don't think too much. After you get married, Qingyu won't make things difficult for you. Not only will he not make things difficult for you, he will also lend you a helping hand. With your abilities, plus Qingyu's help, you will be even more powerful."
In desperation, Han Junhuan said these words in front of Chairman Park and Wu Ruiying.
Then he said to Park Junwan:
"President Park, let's talk while we eat... Hmm, how about letting them both go out and calm down first, while the parents of both families sit here and talk?"
At this time, Park Junwan's heart was extremely complicated.
Of course, he didn't want to see his son being looked down upon by Qingyu. Although DS and Qingyu had cooperation, they were fundamentally in a competitive relationship. But when he heard Chairman Han say that he would do his best to help Park Jin Hyuk, he felt very uncomfortable.
"Son-in-law, take Jiyeon out and comfort her."
As he said that, Han Junhuan pulled Han Jiyeon up.
Seeing this, Park Jin Hyuk stood up, took Han Ji Yeon's hand, nodded to the elders, and walked out.
After walking out of the private room for a distance, Park Jin Hyuk finally let go of his hand and whispered:
"What do you think? My idea is correct, right?"
