Zhu Mian realized that there were many wealthy families vying for the inheritance rights. If he revealed his ambition to fight for the position, he would be like a tree that stood out in the forest and would be destroyed by the wind.
I wasted so many years studying medicine just to hide my true feelings.
Hua Yan said gently, "Excuse me for asking, do you really like Gu Qingxu?"
After sleeping for a while, he came back to his senses and said sarcastically, "What else? Is he supporting me?"
Hua Yan smiled, but seemed to be lost in thought. After a moment, he said, "If you really like me, there are some things I'd better know. I have a business dinner coming up, and the guests are mostly politicians. If it's convenient for you, you can come and hear the other side of me that you don't know."
Xiaomian has always been very cautious and doesn't believe that there will be pie in the sky. He was unmoved and asked, "Why are you telling me this?"
Hua Yan smiled gracefully, "I disdain shady fights. Even if you know everything, I still have confidence."
Zhu Mian didn't understand what he was fighting for. Was it because he had a personal grudge against Gu Qingxu?
But Xiaomian directly refused: "Thank you for your kindness, but there is no need for this. I don't really like going to strange dinner parties."
Hua Yan was rejected out of kindness, but he didn't get angry. He said casually, "Then are you willing to come to Hua's?"
The evening breeze ruffled the treetops, and the moonlight cast shadows of the trees on her beautiful and charming face, swaying gently.
Even if she doesn't make any expression, she is still alluring. She has an extremely feminine appearance, and every facial feature is very gentle. Men will be lost in her eyes.
Just looking at him during his daytime sleep is enough to make one's heart flutter.
Men's admiration for beauty has been around since ancient times.
No matter how powerful a man is, he is no exception.
Especially outstanding beauties.
Hua Yan's voice was steady: "If you are willing to come to Huashi, I will give you everything that Wujin has given you. I will do my best to support you and do what you want to do. You will have enough say in the company."
Xiaomian didn't answer him immediately. He just smiled and said, "I am the heir of Wuxian with Wuxian's support. May I ask what your position is in the Hua family?"
Hua Yan has a brother, the second oldest and the most easily overlooked one, so his father certainly doesn't rely on him.
Zhumian didn't know all this, but when he heard that he had a younger brother and that he was only the vice president, he knew that he was definitely not the heir, and there were probably many brothers vying for that position.
Hua Yan was so embarrassed by the kiss that he joked politely, "I'm trying to climb above my station."
The taxi that Zhuomian took was very close to here and arrived in a moment. He honked the horn at Zhuomian.
Zhu Mian glanced at Hua Yan.
Gentleman Hua Yan said, "Good night, Miss Zhou."
Zhuo Mian walked over, opened the back door, politely nodded goodbye to Hua Yan, and then got in.
Hua Yan also waved goodbye in a friendly manner.

Shi Wang took the box of mung bean cakes out of the bag. In the beautiful Morandi-colored box were ten exquisite mung bean cakes, each with a different shape.
What catches the eye are the shapes of various flower cups, which shows that much thought was put into them.
He was in a state of confusion and felt sad when he saw the box of mung bean cakes.
She shouldn't dislike him. If she did, why would she take the time to make a mung bean cake like this?
Shi Wang looked at her for a long time, but he didn't know what he was like in her heart.
He took a pair of chopsticks and tasted a piece.
The moment it enters the mouth, everything grows wildly like a seed.
The taste is exactly the same.
His hand holding the chopsticks stiffened slightly.
I don’t know how much time and effort it takes to achieve this level.
He rushed back thousands of miles away, but didn't get to eat it. However, he tasted the familiar flavor in Shanghai, thousands of miles away.
This smell always soothed him.
When I was a child, my parents always put on shows with distorted views on love.
Every time he had an outburst, his grandmother would take him away, wrap a few mung bean cakes in a small handkerchief, and sit with him on the steps to count ants and watch the sunset.
He asked his grandmother, whose fault is it that mom and dad are always like this? Is it because of him? They always say on TV that mothers don't divorce for the sake of their children.
But grandma sneered, and the stubborn old lady said something that left the deepest impression on him in his life.
"It's not your fault. You're a good boy. It's my rotten son and your inexplicably infatuated mother."
The little old lady was the first person in the area to divorce her husband. She was only twenty years old at the time, and divorce was shocking at that time.
Just because the man is having an affair outside.
In the old society, not to mention going out to seek pleasure, even marrying a dozen or twenty concubines was common. Men had not been disciplined, especially in remote areas, and still held on to that kind of thinking.
But she insisted on getting a divorce, even though she was six months pregnant.
The little old lady held up a handkerchief and said, "I've always taught him to respect himself and love himself, but I didn't expect him to inherit his father's temperament and be full of tricks. Xiaowang, don't learn from him."
He didn't fully understand at that time, but nodded firmly.
But grandma is gone, and this is the only thing left.
The owner of that shop knew my grandmother, and she always bought his mung bean cakes for him to eat.
Every time he tastes this flavor, it feels like his deceased grandmother has returned to his side, gently patting his head and comforting him by saying, "It's okay, grandma is with you."
It’s okay, we are not wrong.
Shi Wang's eyes felt slightly sore, but he truly understood Zhou Mian's resentment.
Put yourself in her shoes. If he had gone to great lengths to do such a thing for her, and was eagerly awaiting her reaction, but she said he was being sentimental, he would be hurt just as much.
