Chapter 108 Dinner Party Misunderstanding Orientation is Normal
"alright."
Rongzhen took a step back and tilted her head to admire her work.
The black jade collar clip pinned on the chest of the jade-like young man made his sickly complexion no longer look pale and weak, but instead had a warm, bright and healthy feeling.
The teller's eyes lit up, and he smiled and kept praising her good taste.
Ying Han was a little confused, but he quickly adjusted himself and bowed slightly, saying, "Thank you for your concern, Miss."
"Don't be so polite, it's just a simple thing." Rong Zhen waved her hand and turned to pick up the gift box that the teller had packed.
Ying Han immediately took it, "Miss, I'll do it."
Halfway through his shopping, a director of the company called him and asked if the eldest lady would attend the Han family's banquet in the evening.
Ying Han glanced at Rong Zhen, who was choosing a dress in front of him, and walked over to ask, "How did you hear about this?"
Although the Han family's invitations had been urgently sent out, the number of people who knew about the role their eldest daughter played in it and the fact that she was invited as a VIP by the Han family could be counted on one hand.
This director is really well-informed.
The director laughed it off. "Don't worry about how I know this. Just tell me if that girl is going alone and if she needs a male companion. I have someone here..."
He wanted to keep the wealth within the family, so the candidate he chose was actually his son, a "promising young man" who had just returned from abroad with a diploma.
Ying Han's mind flashed with the man's information. A chill flashed across his eyes. He declined calmly, "Don't bother Mr. Wang. The young lady has already arranged for her entourage."
"Who is it? Who acted so quickly?!" Mr. Wang on the other end of the phone asked dissatisfiedly.
Ying Han: "It is me, the humble one."
Director Wang: “…………”
As one of the pillars left by Mr. Ruan, although Ying Han has the least experience, his ability should not be underestimated.
Therefore, unless it is necessary, shareholders like Mr. Wang who only receive dividends would never want to confront him rashly, especially at this critical moment of power transition.
The call was finally hung up in embarrassment.
When one plan failed, Mr. Wang decided to find another way.
Time ticked by, and when the lights came on, Rongzhen packed up everything and took a car to go to the banquet with Yinghan.
The Han family held the banquet in the open-air garden on the rooftop of their own hotel, entertaining guests from all over the world with a buffet, and announcing the return of a new grandchild to people in the circle and the media.
The display was quite grand, showing the importance the Han family attached to the parties involved.
When Han Liming followed his uncle and aunt to welcome guests at the gate, he smiled so hard that his teeth almost broke to his ears, and his whole body was filled with joy, like a silly roe deer.
It was not until Rongzhen got out of the car and stepped forward that Yinghan handed over the invitation and gift.
Han Feiran and Rong Zhen hugged each other and put their cheeks together, smiling and saying, "Just come, why bring anything?"
"You informed me in advance that this was the gift you wanted me to buy for my nephew." Rong Zhen smiled back and turned to Han Liming and said, "Nephew, welcome home. From now on, I'm your aunt, just like Fei Ran. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
Han Feiran gave her a satisfied look that said 'you're smart' and signaled Han Liming to take the gift.
Rongzhen was even more satisfied than her. As long as this step was passed and the seniority was determined, the risk of the plot collapsing would be reduced.
At this moment, Han Liming wanted to be clever and said with a chuckle, "To be honest, I really don't know how to call you aunt. You and my aunt both look so young. How about I just call you sister?"
When Ying Han heard this, he glanced at him and paid attention to Rong Zhen's reaction.
Rong Zhen waved her hands and shook her head repeatedly, "No, no matter how young you are, there's still a generation gap. We can't mess this up. It's better to call her aunt."
Han Feiran patted her nephew on the back and warned him, "Don't talk nonsense. This person is not only a good friend of your aunt, but also your savior. From now on, treat her like your own aunt!"
Rongzhen agreed very much, and didn't notice that the second uncle of the Han family next to her had a slightly changed expression, and his eyes shifted back and forth between her and Han Feiran without leaving a trace.
After a few pleasantries at the gate, Han Feiran personally took her upstairs and took the elevator directly to the top floor.
Before the banquet even started, the venue was already bustling with lights, wine, and beautiful women. The Han family members present were busy welcoming guests.
Rongzhen was brought by Han Feiran to her parents, who are also the protagonist's grandparents.
The two elderly people are over 70 years old. Although their hair is gray, they are still straight, energetic, and have extraordinary temperament.
When they saw Rongzhen, the two elders' faces blossomed unconsciously. Just as they were about to say something, Uncle Han rushed over and whispered something in their ears, looking at Rongzhen and Han Feiran while speaking.
Rong Zhen saw the smiles on their faces froze, and they looked at her and Han Feiran with trembling eyes, as if they had heard a fairy tale and couldn't believe it.
Such an obvious change, coupled with Uncle Han's barely concealed trickery, not only surprised Rong Zhen, but also caused Han Feiran to narrow her eyes and ask bluntly, "Dad, Mom, what's wrong?"
Grandpa Han and Grandma Han looked at each other without saying anything. They quickly concealed their strangeness and took their hands and talked to them in a friendly manner.
Uncle Han gave his sister a strange smile from an angle where the two elders couldn't see. Without waiting for the latter to think deeply, he turned back to the front door to continue welcoming guests. No matter how you looked at his back, he had a gloating look as if he was waiting to see a good show.
Han Feiran felt that judging by the character of this second brother, his action just now must have been a bad one.
Sure enough, the two elders rambled on until the end, and suddenly changed the subject: "Feiran, Tianzhen, you are not young anymore, and it is time for you to start a family. Take advantage of today's opportunity to quickly see if there is anyone suitable. It's important to start a family and build a career. How can you build a career without a family? Don't you agree?"
Han Feiran instantly understood his second brother's sinister intentions, and his face suddenly turned a little dark.
Rongzhen looked embarrassed. She didn't expect that she would be urged to get married just by attending a party.
As sisters in need, the two looked at each other with sympathy and shook their heads to indicate that they were not in a hurry to get married, but it would be better to focus on their careers first.
Now it was Grandpa Han and Grandma Han who looked unhappy, and their eyes moved back and forth between the two of them with suspicion.
Then the old couple tacitly took one child away each, and interrogated and tested them separately.
Grandpa Han asked his daughter with a stern face: "Han Feiran, tell me the truth, do you not like boys, but only like the girl from the Ruan family?"
Han Feiran almost choked to death on his saliva.
Grandma Han cautiously tested Rongzhen: "Tianzhen, tell auntie what kind of person you like. Someone as handsome as Liming, or as delicate as Feiran? Auntie can help you find one."
Rong Zhen was stunned for a moment, instinctively avoiding the male lead option, and blurted out: "Of course it's someone like Fei Ran!"
Han Liming is the male protagonist, so he must be abandoned if you have to choose between the two.
Grandma Han's face turned pale, as if she had confirmed something. She sighed and looked at her with a complicated expression, confirming, "You really don't like Liming?"
Rongzhen shook her head repeatedly, wishing she could avoid suspicion immediately.
Seeing this, Grandma Han's face turned gray immediately. Without saying anything else, she let go of her hand and walked towards her old man.
Rongzhen felt confused.
Ying Han followed her silently like a shadow, watching the entire process. At this moment, he coughed softly, reminding her and speculating, "Miss, they may have misunderstood."
What did you misunderstand?
Before Rongzhen could ask, Han Feiran, who had finally escaped from his father's hands, pulled her to a corner and whispered in her ear.
"Hahaha Tianzhen, let me tell you something very funny. My dad and the others actually misunderstood that you and I were having an affair!" Han Feiran held his stomach and laughed so hard that he fell forward and backward, his body shaking. He was so happy.
Rong Zhen was struck by lightning and finally understood what Ying Han had just said about the misunderstanding.
The original owner and Han Feiran were both older, unmarried, rich, and beautiful women with excellent conditions and many suitors, but there was no movement at all. They were the only two hanging out together all day long. No wonder they caused misunderstandings, and no wonder the original owner in the story wanted to prove her sexual orientation by "keeping" a little wolfdog.
Rongzhen didn't need to do this now, so she retorted with a serious face: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm a woman, and I like men."
Straight straight!
Han Feiran certainly knew.
But if it can help her deal with her parents' pressure to get married once and for all, she actually doesn't mind having a fake relationship with her good friend.
Not to mention, Rong Zhen actually considered the feasibility of this matter, but finally thought that the original owner did not want to act this way in the story, so he gave up regretfully.
It challenges the secular concept too much and may easily affect the reputation of the Ruan family and the company. It cannot be done.
Ying Han probably saw her intention and tried to dissuade her in time, "Miss, you are Mr. Ruan's only daughter, and the Ruan family is also thriving. You really don't need to be so wronged."
Lest you try to get the skin of a tiger and get plotted against.
There was a deep meaning in his words. While reminding Rong Zhen, he also glanced at Han Feiran inconspicuously, secretly becoming alert.
I believe that the person who can make a way out of the Han family's struggle, which has made people's brains beaten into dog's brains, will never be as simple as she appears.
"I know, don't worry." Rong Zhen comforted his future general and spread his hands towards Han Feiran.
Unable to help, she decided to find someone else.
Han Feiran shook his head regretfully, as if it was just a spur-of-the-moment suggestion and it would be fine if it didn't work out.
Afterwards, the two went to explain to Grandpa Han and Grandma Han, but it was obvious that the two elders did not quite believe them and began to take the opportunity to introduce blind dates to them at the banquet.
Rongzhen is better off. After all, she is not from the same family as them, so she can still avoid them by dealing with them.
Han Feiran was in a miserable situation. He was dragged by his parents to meet people and he couldn't even refuse.
Rongzhen was gloating, but her joy turned to sorrow. She turned around and ran into Uncle Zhao who had arrived late. He took her to introduce everyone to him and to meet the younger generations brought by the uncles, such as sons, nephews and nieces. His intention was self-evident.
It’s really the will of heaven, let’s see who it spares.
Rong Zhen managed an awkward laugh, barely making it through the entire meeting when she heard Uncle Zhao confide in her, "These are the ones your father picked out for you before he left. I also added a few after some additional research. Take a look and see if you find any that you like."
"What do you mean?" Rong Zhen asked knowingly, struggling desperately to confirm.
Uncle Zhao said directly, "Of course it's to help you find your lifelong partner. This was your father's last wish. He didn't see you get married and have children, so he entrusted the matter to me. You should also pay attention and look around more. There will always be a suitable one."
Rongzhen is not opposed to getting married. Maybe getting married earlier can help avoid the male protagonist from going astray in the plot, but she definitely can't be so hasty. Anyone can be fine.
Even in the mission world, marriage is a lifelong thing, so she has to look for it carefully.
Uncle Zhao was very pleased to see that she was no longer opposed to this matter. He stopped holding on to it and turned around to be pulled away by a familiar friend.
Rongzhen breathed a sigh of relief, glad that Uncle Zhao didn't force her to go on an in-person blind date like Grandpa Han and Grandma Han did.
As soon as the thought flashed through her mind, the guy who wanted to have a blind date with her came with his people.
"Niece, long time no see. Do you still recognize your Uncle Wang?" Director Wang appeared out of nowhere with his son, and stood in front of Rong Zhen with a smile. His chubby face like Maitreya Buddha was full of kindness, and only the occasional gleam in his eyes revealed a hint of calculation.
Rongzhen naturally didn't know him.
Ying Han introduced her: "This is Mr. Wang, a shareholder of the board of directors, and next to him is his son, Mr. Xiao Wang."
Rongzhen greeted Uncle Wang out of politeness, and couldn't help frowning at Mr. Wang who was looking her up and down with a critical look.
What's wrong with this guy? Does he think he is picking pork in the market?
What's that look in his eyes?!
