Chapter 203 Why are you so partial?
It's late at night.
Most of the lights outside the house were out.
An Yan heard the car horn and left the yard in her slippers. She saw the driver helping the drunk Han Zheng down. She stepped forward to help, and after much effort, she and the driver finally got him into the house and onto the bed in the master bedroom.
An Yan sent the driver off.
She returned to the villa, her shoulders still sore from carrying Han Zheng. She bent down and sniffed her nightgown, which was stained with the pungent smell of alcohol.
She quickly went to take a shower.
Coming out of the bathroom, the first thing I saw was Han Zheng lying in a puddle on the bed in the bedroom not far away. He hadn't slept in any meaningful position, and he looked filthy and disheveled. He bore no resemblance to the Han CEO rumored in Beijing circles, the man who had topped the Forbes China rankings in his twenties.
An Yan looked at the person on the bed.
She couldn't help but recall the look of terror and shock on Mo Yanxin's face when she returned to the private room at Half the Kingdom. When she heard from her that Han Zhan was the president of Shine Group, even An Yan, who had seen many treacherous situations in the industry, was stunned, her facial muscles twitching slightly with surprise.
Before the marriage.
She is full of hope for the future.
Especially when it came to Shi Yin, the competitive mentality gave her immense satisfaction. She held a higher position than Shi Yin, being the wife of the boss of the Han Group. Her husband was better than Shi Yin's; one was the president of a listed company, the other a hopeless young master. The difference was immediately apparent.
It seems now.
The family her parents had chosen for her was a good match for her, and the husband she had chosen was nothing but a piece of trash covered in gold. He seemed to be very successful on the outside, but inside, he had no redeeming qualities at all.
He is an unqualified husband.
Being a CEO isn't much better.
"Do you want a divorce? Business marriages are easy to enter but difficult to exit. Even if you wanted to, Uncle An and Aunt An wouldn't agree, right?"
"I won't divorce."
Mo Yanxin asked her at that time.
She replied this.
Even though Han Zheng was a complete failure and a fabricated elite, his status as the heir was real. As long as he was the future head of the Han family and held the majority of the Han family's wealth, An Yan would not divorce him.
What she wants is wealth and glory.
It's fame and fortune.
It is the highest position.
She could tolerate being with anyone, including her unsuccessful, chauvinistic husband, Han Zheng, who pretended to be a good guy. As long as she was the wife of the head of the family and half of Han's property belonged to her, it was enough.
…
The next day.
In front of the Han family's private garden.
The Porsche Macan pulled up to the boulevard, and Shi Yin got out. Those in a hurry always arrive first. When she entered the courtyard, she saw Ms. Bai and the Han residence's housekeeper standing under the eaves.
Look at that.
I guess he has been here for a long time.
It had rained a little that morning, and the bluestone floor was damp. Shi Yin walked along the narrow path through the courtyard, climbed the steps, and entered the gate before Ms. Bai.
The housekeeper opened his mouth to say that she was rude. The elders were here, and not only did she not greet them first, but she also entered the room before them? However, before he could even open his mouth, he was stopped by Ms. Bai.
Today they need her help.
They are at a disadvantage.
Tolerance is inevitable.
Ms. Bai took a few deep breaths. She swallowed the bitter pill to ensure Ah Zheng could gain a firm foothold in Han's and retain her position as CEO. As long as Ah Zheng could return to his former glory, she would have plenty of time and energy to fight Shi Yin in the future! She simply couldn't believe she couldn't fix a girl in her early twenties!
Walk through the corridor with a different view at every step.
Arrive at the central hall.
Shi Yin sat down on the sandalwood chair in the middle seat, the one that only Bai Wanqing could sit in. Seeing the butler stretching his neck to argue, Shi Yin called out to him first, "I'm a little thirsty. Go get two cups of tea. I don't know how to make Ms. Bai's cup, but you know how to make mine."
The housekeeper immediately became obedient.
The argument is over.
The stern look was gone.
His hunched shoulders immediately dropped and he nodded like a pug, fearing that Shi Yin would ask him to make tea over and over again like before, neither cold nor hot, neither green tea nor black tea, which made his old eyes blurry.
The butler immediately received the order and left the hall.
As the other person's figure disappeared, Shi Yin and Ms. Bai were the only two people left in the huge hall. It was quiet all around, and the sound of the wind blowing through the hall could be heard.
Shi Yin stood up.
I looked up and admired the house with its carved beams and painted rafters.
Every inch is exquisite.
It was a gift that Han Zhan spent a lot of money and effort to create.
Ms. Bai didn't care about it, but there were people who cherished it. For example, Shi Yin loved this garden very much and was already thinking about demolishing the old imperial villa, discarding the decorations, and replacing it with a retro European style. When the time comes, she will invite Mo Li and Meng Xi to come here for dinner and vacation.
"Did you bring the transfer agreement?" Shi Yin asked.
"Here."
"Has it been signed?"
"Signed."
"Give it to me." Shi Yin extended her hand, palm facing up, in front of Ms. Bai. Seeing that she was still not moving, she helped the woman and took the agreement document directly. She turned sideways to reject her attempt to take it back. She flipped the paper open, confirmed that it was correct, and put it in her bag. "I fulfilled my promise and nodded to agree to withdraw from the cooperation with Shine Group."
Hearing this.
Ms. Bai breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter how much he hated to part with the garden, he felt a little relieved when he heard this answer. The garden was gone, but at least A Zheng's career was still there.
"You've always known that the pigeon blood Moroccan ruby ring and this garden were given to you by A Zhan, right?"
Ms. Bai remained silent.
Her silence was seen as silent consent by Shi Yin.
"You know that Zhan is incredibly talented, whether in business or politics. Yet, you suppress his natural talents, even depriving him of his achievements. You exploit his guilt over the illness he developed after you gave birth to him, repeatedly using him as a stepping stone to pave the way for Han Zheng. He's also your son, so why are you so partial?"
Ms. Bai still didn't say anything.
"I heard from Ah Zhan that before you got married, you had a childhood sweetheart in the imperial capital. Later, something unexpected happened and he passed away. The next month, you accepted Han Tai's proposal and married into the Han family." Shi Yin approached her, leaning close to her face, and asked in a low voice, "Could it be that Han Zheng is not Han Tai's son, but your first love?"
The sound falls.
Bai Wanqing's black pupils suddenly contracted.
His eyes suddenly shook violently.
