Chapter 270 Are you fooling me?
The old voice had a rough and hoarse laugh.
It felt like although she was smiling, there was no joy in her expression. Instead, there was a kind of melancholy that made one's heart palpitate and numb.
"Miss Xu is indeed clever. She managed to entangle my son in this with just a few words. No wonder Xiu Jin is so fixated on you."
Han Ming's face froze for a moment before he reacted.
Fang Li smiled faintly, thinking to herself that it wasn't that she was so smart, it was just that although your son is old, he is too reckless and gullible. No wonder Han Xi was able to snatch Han's family from him at such a young age.
With his brain, even if he lives another 30 years, he will never be a match for Han Xi!
"You...you're fooling me?"
Fang Li raised her eyebrows: "Boss Han, that's not true. I'm telling the truth. If there's any trickery, it should be Han Xi who tricked me first, or should I say..."
As she spoke, she suddenly frowned, "Han Xi isn't as chaste as I thought. He also likes those daughters of famous families. So he's deliberately lying to me? If that's the case, I...I will never forgive him!"
"......." Old Mrs. Han's face darkened slightly and she didn't say anything.
“That’s enough!”
Seeing her pretentious attitude, Han Ming suddenly slammed the table and stood up.
Fang Li frowned, the playful glint in her eyes disappeared, and she sat quietly.
"Stop talking nonsense here!"
Han Ming stared at her with an angry look on his face. "It seems you're quite ambitious. You know you can get far more by sticking with Xiu Jin than you do now. So, speak up! What do you want to do to completely break up with Xiu Jin?"
"Boss Han means I can set any conditions I want?"
"Think about your own weight and don't go too far!"
Fang Li suddenly realized, "Is that so? Then I don't want it. After all, Han Xi gave me quite a lot. Now I have shares in Han's Jewelry, which is enough for me to squander."
"You!" Han Ming almost fainted from anger.
He held his forehead with his hand, gritted his teeth and endured for a long time before he said in a deep voice: "Tell me! What do you want?!"
Fang Li curled her lips. "I moved in here not long after arriving in the capital. How about we talk to Chairman Han and Han Xi about giving me the Banshan Manor? With such a large place, I can do whatever I want and I won't need Han Xi anymore!"
"Or... I heard that Universal Building is also part of Han's property. You must know that my studio is in Universal Building. Why don't you give it to me? Then I won't have to pay rent for my studio every year, which will save me a lot of money! I can also rent out the remaining money. Money makes money, and I will definitely have a lot of money. Then I won't need Han Xi anymore!"
“.......”
"puff......."
I don’t know which servant in the corner couldn’t help but laughed out loud.
Looking at the tall and strong bodyguards behind Han Ming and the old lady, although their faces were ashen, Fang Li had good eyesight and could still see that the corners of one of them's mouth were twitching.
To be honest, if Fang Li hadn't studied acting in college and acted in several plays after graduation, she wouldn't have such a strong sense of belief.
Especially when she saw Han Ming jumping up and down, even though she knew he was Han Xi's father, she still had to hold back her laughter, which made her feel a little painful.
Han Ming's brain is not as smart as Han Xi's, but after all, he has been immersed in the business world for so many years, how could he be a complete fool!
That low laugh was like tearing off his proud face and slapping him in the face, making him feel ashamed and angry in an instant!
"Who's laughing? Come out!"
Fang Li glanced at the people hiding in the kitchen without saying anything.
Han Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Go, find out who was eavesdropping on the master's conversation just now!"
After receiving the order, two bodyguards came out and walked towards the servants' room.
At this time, the old lady sitting on the sofa said: "What are you doing? Come back!"
The bodyguard stopped suddenly, in a dilemma.
"Mom! Look at Xiu Jin's people, they have no manners at all. Today, they dare to laugh at the master family just because you are here. Normally, when you are not around, they never take their son seriously!"
Han Ming's face turned red with anger: "Today I must teach these servants a lesson on behalf of Xiu Jin. Those who want to work can use this opportunity to find out who is their boss, and those who don't want to work can just get out!"
"Okay!" The old lady yelled, and Han Ming's face froze.
The old lady glanced at him with a look of disapproval: "This is Xiu Jin's place, and you still think it's not embarrassing enough! Don't forget what you came here for today!"
Han Ming frowned and stopped talking.
The old lady's sharp eyes instantly turned to Fang Li, and she smiled coldly: "It seems that I underestimated you, girl. You are so young but you know how to play with people's hearts. It seems that you will not leave Xiu Jin obediently. No matter how much we say today, it will be useless. In this case..."
She raised her hand slightly, and the bodyguard next to her immediately extended his arm.
The old lady helped her stand up slowly and looked at Fang Li across the coffee table: "Miss Xu, please stay with Xiu Jin. I hope you can continue to follow him with such determination."
Fang Li just smiled without saying anything and nodded slightly at the old lady.
.......Then just watch!
"Let's go."
A group of people walked around the living room and left.
Only when they reached the door did Fang Li slowly get up from the sofa and follow them to the door.
As she reached the door, four black cars started up. The rear window of the middle car slowly lowered, revealing Han Ming's gloomy and ashen face.
He turned his head, looked at Fang Li through the car window and said, "It's good for young people to be ambitious, but it's foolish to be ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. Soon, you will pay the price for teasing your elders today!"
The car window slowly rose.
Even across five or six steps, Fang Li could feel the anger and hostility in Han Ming's gloomy eyes.
Her eyebrows moved slightly and she nodded gently at him.
The car windows were completely closed.
Then, the car slowly drove out of the main house and left the manor.
"Madam, what should we do? Should we tell my husband about this..."
"Need not."
"But Mr. Han's temper..." Aunt Rong had been eavesdropping in the kitchen. She came out as soon as she saw them leave. At this moment, she was worried and scared.
Seeing Fang Li's expressionless face and lack of reaction, she couldn't help but ask with concern and confusion, "Why don't you just tell Mr. Han and the old lady that you and your husband are married?"
Fang Li turned around and asked: "Why didn't Han Xi say anything?"
“…Maybe they’re afraid they’ll make trouble…”
Fang Li curled her lips: "Although I'm not afraid of them making trouble, I'm afraid of being annoyed."
Aunt Rong was startled for a moment, then frowned: "But this will only deepen their misunderstanding of you. I'm afraid you'll be in trouble next time you go to the old house..."
"Then why not just not go to the old house?"
"......Not going? How can that be possible?"
Fang Li took her arm soothingly and said affectionately, "Ah, Aunt Rong, what era is this? The relationship between elders and juniors is no longer based on blind loyalty and filial piety like in ancient times. If an elder deserves respect, then I will naturally respect him. If he is domineering and unreasonable, then I can only treat him as an elder and leave him there."
"Can......."
"Stop nagging. Is dinner ready? I'm hungry after being delayed for so long. Go get it ready. I'll go get Yang Miao down. That girl hasn't moved for a long time. She might be asleep."
Watching Fang Li fleeing upstairs, Aunt Rong stood there with a feeling of melancholy in her heart.
It wasn't that she wanted to meddle in the master's family's affairs, it was just that Mr. Han was just that kind of person... Madam had teased him like that today, and she was afraid that it wouldn't be so easy to let it go.
She should tell her husband.
Aunt Rong hurried back to her room.
