Chapter 183: Too Much Calculation
Han Ming is not as good as his wife, and always living under his wife's shadow is a knot in his heart.
However, when Han Xi grew up, he showed extraordinary talent in business.
He skipped several grades in school and just returned to China after graduating from studying abroad. He successfully gained the recognition of Han’s top management with an investment of billions, and directly sidelined Han Ming, the chairman.
After entering the company, it took only a few months for him to completely win back the hearts of the people within the Han Group with his iron-blooded tactics. Han Ming couldn't even keep the honorary position of chairman, and became an idle director who only collected dividends.
Han Xi said that his father started to be wary of him from that time.
From the geometric growth of Han's assets in the few short years since Han Xi took over Han's, it can be seen that Han Xi is indeed much more talented in business than his father Han Ming.
The company he founded had been stagnant until his son, who suddenly returned home, took over with an iron fist and began to develop rapidly.
This is undoubtedly a slap in the face of him as the former chairman.
Han Xi now has enough say in the Han family. The Han of the Han family has long become Han Xi's Han. Unfortunately, Han Ming still refuses to accept his fate and is always thinking about when to get back the say in the Han family.
Why has he cared so much about Han Xi's marriage over the years?
It is because Han Xi's current strength is already strong enough that he cannot tolerate Han Xi finding a wife who can make him even more powerful.
The girls Han Ming found for Han Xi seemed to be daughters of famous families, but what was the reality?
The Wen family in the east of the city, the Cui family in the west of the city, the Ren family in the south of the city, the second daughter of Rongfa, the daughter of Jiulin, and so on... They are either aristocratic families that have long been strong on the outside but weak on the inside, or they are old-established companies that have been making losses and are still hanging on.
Such in-laws will not only not provide him with any help, but will also be like a blood-sucking leech. As long as he dares to get close, he will never be able to get rid of it.
In her childhood memories, Fang Li had a pretty good impression of Han Ming.
Whenever Han Ming was mentioned, the first image that flashed in her mind was him playing football with Han Xi on the lawn in their yard.
At that time, the relationship between father and son was so harmonious.
Fang Li remembers very clearly that when she was a child, she envied Han Xi for having a father who could always play with him.
Unlike her, although her parents love her as much as anyone else, due to their work, they only see each other a few times a year.
However, such a father and son had such a huge gap between them after all these years, even to the point where they didn't see each other.
The car drove onto the road halfway up the mountain and soon turned into the manor.
When Yaoyao saw the main house, the two found that the entrance of the main house was a little different from before. There were obviously two cars that they had never seen before.
"Did you buy another car?" Fang Li asked Han Xi while looking at the two black Rolls-Royce and Mercedes-Benz.
Han Xi took a quick look, turned the steering wheel indifferently and parked the car to the other side.
Turn off the engine and get out of the car.
Then he took Fang Li from the passenger seat, took her hand and said, "No."
Who is that?
The two walked towards the main house door.
As I approached, I heard the sound of people talking.
"Qian Rui was wrong in this matter. She offended Han Xi's girlfriend, so he's right to be angry."
"What girlfriend? She's just a retired celebrity. She relied on her looks to get close to Han Xi. Han Xi is the same. I thought he was calm and self-controlled, but I didn't expect he couldn't resist the temptation." It was Han Ming who said this.
Fang Li and Han Xi were standing at the door.
Hearing this, Fang Li looked up at the man beside her.
His eyes were gloomy and his face was as pale as the sea, without any clues.
At this time, another voice inside spoke again.
"From what I know about Han Xi, he has been very chaste over the years and is not someone who can resist temptation. He is defending that girl so much this time, it seems that he is really moved. No one can predict matters like marriage, so I think you should not be too picky and just agree to it."
"I don't care if he's sincere or not. Even if Han Xi finds anyone right now, I might agree to it, but I absolutely won't agree to that woman!"
"Old Han, isn't this a bit too arbitrary?"
Han Ming sneered, "Am I arbitrary? That woman has the ability to force Shiyu to leave the house before she even enters the house. If I don't act more decisively, won't she kick me out of the house next time?!"
"Mr. Han really should leave here immediately!" Just as Han Ming finished speaking, a deep voice came from the door.
Seeing Han Xi walking into the villa with a gloomy expression, Fang Li silently held his hand and followed him.
The two of them walked in, and Han Ming, who was sitting on the sofa, looked over immediately.
Sitting next to him was a middle-aged man who was about the same age as him, but looked a little fatter than him.
The other person was wearing a beige Chinese suit, with a round face, thick neck, thick shoulders and a slightly protruding belly. His facial features looked somewhat familiar.
While Fang Li was looking at him, his shrewd eyes moved away from Han Xi and fell on her.
"Mr. Sheng." Han Xi opened his lips slightly and called out.
Fang Li's expression remained unchanged, but she was surprised in her heart.
Mr. Sheng?
Sheng Qianrui's father?
After just seeing his daughter, the father came to the door in person.
Should she say that the news spread too quickly, or that these two people were too calculating?
One of them went to block her after get off work, and the other secretly looked for Han Ming.
Is it all for that Sun Zhixin?
"Xiu Jin is back." Sheng Jinghui smiled slightly, his round face raised, a few wrinkles appeared at the corners of his eyes, and he looked like a kind Maitreya Buddha.
But Fang Li knew that some people only looked kind, but in fact they had deep thoughts that ordinary people could not see through.
Just like now.
Sheng Jinghui's eyes seemed to be smiling, but the smile did not reach his eyes, and there was even a hint of viciousness that made people tremble.
If an ordinary girl faced such an elder, her face would probably turn pale.
Unfortunately, Fang Li is not an ordinary person.
She had been accustomed to the hypocrisy and deception among the elders in the upper class since she was a child. She was not only knowledgeable but also courageous. Therefore, a subtle look alone could not scare her.
Fang Li stood beside Han Xi with a cool and neither humble nor arrogant look, meeting Sheng Jinghui's gaze and watching him quietly.
After a moment, Sheng Jinghui was the first to look away and look at Han Xi again.
"I happened to run into your father in the restaurant today, and after dinner he asked me to come over to your place. You really know how to enjoy yourself. You built such a large manor so quietly. I came to visit you without any prior notice. Do you mind?"
"If someone thinks Mr. Sheng's house is beautiful and goes in to visit it without his consent, I wonder if Mr. Sheng would mind." Han Xi did not answer, but asked him instead.
The smile on Sheng Jinghui's face froze, and after a moment's pause, he slowly smiled: "It seems that you still mind."
Han Xi remained silent.
"Forget it, it seems Xiu Jin doesn't welcome me here, Old Han, then I'll leave first." With that, Sheng Jinghui got up from the sofa.
