"Their mouths are on them. It's hard to be a human, but it's even harder to be someone's target," He Zhou said nonchalantly. "It's not like I can stitch them up. I don't care what they do. Choose the best way to solve it, which is to mind your own business."
"That won't do," Pan Ying said flatly. "Do you remember what happened with Pan Shaojun? A divorce case actually became entertainment gossip, and in the end, it affected the business. "
Being born in this kind of family, they might not feel anything, but when something happened, they could really feel their status in society. It was easy for them to unconsciously become the topic of others' gossip.
"Sigh." He Zhou understood what she meant, but he still said, "Do I have to take a beating, smile, and wipe the slate clean?"
Pan Ying said, "There's no need for that. At least you can't be so impulsive. Learn to settle scores later. A gentleman doesn't rush to take revenge."
"Alright, I'll listen to you." He Zhou was afraid that she would nag further, so he gave in.
The rain was getting heavier, and the wind was getting stronger.
"What a killjoy," Pan Ying muttered.
"Let's go to my place." He Zhou turned the car around and returned home.
After parking the car, he said, "Wait a moment. I'll go get an umbrella to pick you up."
"It's okay, I'm not that delicate." Pan Ying followed closely behind He Zhou and rushed into the storm.
Just a few steps and the two of them were drenched.
As soon as they entered the house, He Zhou changed his clothes. When he came out, he threw his shirt at her. "If you don't mind, you can wear it. It might be a little big."
When she came out of the house, He Zhou's eyes almost popped out.
The loose shirt covered her body, and the parts that should be protruding were not hidden at all.
The hem of the shirt could not hide her perfect long legs.
He had never looked at her so closely since he was young.
For a moment, he wondered if he had missed something.
Why was she different from usual?
"Hey, what are you looking at?" Pan Ying blushed, asking despite knowing the answer.
"I'll make you some ginger soup in case you catch a cold." He Zhou had to admit that she was really fierce.
"It's okay, I'll do it." Pan Ying ran into the kitchen.
Not long after, He Zhou enjoyed the warm ginger soup. They both sat on the sofa far away from each other. He realized that he no longer had the guts to approach her.
Sang Yongbo's purchase of the fifth store with 8.6 billion yuan in cash had caused an uproar in the market. However, only He Zhou knew that this was just the beginning, because the boss of Li Village, Li Lao Er, had also come to Pujiang.
If it was really such a small matter, Li Lao Er would definitely disdain to do anything. Everyone knew how lazy he was.
Even though he'd expected this, the Sang family's actions still gave him quite a fright. They'd actually spent 46.7 billion to purchase a cultural tourism project from a Liaoyang company!
He had thought that was the end of it, but in less than three days, the Sang clan had taken over the fourth largest supermarket chain in China, spending a total of $25.1 billion.
For a moment, Sang Yongbo's image in his heart also rose.
The two families lived in the same district and lived very close to each other. Every time Feng Yu went to look for Sang Yongbo, he was not at home. He was either in Hong Kong or Shenzhen.
It wasn't until Sang Yongbo called for him to eat that he realized the Sang family's actions had finally stopped.
It was a large private room that could accommodate more than 20 people. Other than Li Zhuang and a few others that he was familiar with, he did not know the rest of the people. Pan Guangcai introduced them to him one by one. Then he realized that he had heard of most of the names, and even seen their photos. It was just that it was difficult to match them with the person in question.
There shouldn't be a place for him here, but he was representing his mother, the world's number one supplier of basic logistics facilities. No one could underestimate him, no matter who it was.
However, as a junior, as a newcomer, he didn't hesitate to drink when it was time to drink.
"It's a trade war, after all. Basically, the cake is too small, and there isn't enough to go around. The Americans are ready to flip the table and act shamelessly, but they're not afraid of a fight. They say it takes two to clap. Let him stand, and I'll give him a slap to see if it makes a sound … "
Half drunk, He Zhou began to listen to Li Lao Er's analysis of the trade conflict between China and the United States. As he listened, he laughed.
"What year is this? Can't you stand and talk?"
Everyone laughed.
"Some people are used to kneeling. It's hard to change them," Wu Shuping said with a smile.
"Chuan Po often threatens to ban my company. I said I'm not afraid. Half of the companies in Silicon Valley are invested by me, so this is a mutual injury." Li He continued, "However, even if you're not afraid, you have to be prepared. Once the ban is imposed, can you withstand it? Don't take chances. China is already at this level, so it's bound to fall with the Americans.
When that happens, chips, electronics, and software will all be affected … "
He Zhou listened with relish.
After the meal, many people left. Only Li Zhuang and a few others were left in the hotel.
Everyone had a teacup in front of them, and they took a few sips from time to time. Unknowingly, everyone talked about children.
Naturally, He Zhou was affected.
He smiled and said, "I'm not in a hurry. I'm not that old yet."
He had seen rich second-generation heirs, but none of them got married before the age of 30.
He felt that it was normal for him to get married so late, and he shouldn't be the target of mobs.
In the end, he was wrong.
"How old are you? You can't let your mother worry about you." The one who spoke was Second Brother Li. He smiled and said, "Get married early and let your mother have a grandson or a granddaughter. Then, you can focus on your career and she won't nag you anymore."
"There's no suitable one," He Zhou said helplessly.
Li He said, "I've been through it. I know some things better than you. Actually, I'll be honest. Don't mistake tenderness for love. Don't mistake sympathy and pity for liking. There are some things that you need to think about."
How could he not know about the Qu family's girl?
Although He Zhou had drunk a lot, his mind was the most sober of the day. He instantly understood what Second Brother Li meant.
He felt indignant. 'How can I tell others everything?
Am I not afraid of being laughed at?
Li He patted his shoulder and said, "Find someone who loves you and you don't hate her. That's enough."
He also hoped that his future daughter-in-law would be Pan Ying. This girl's personality and appearance were impeccable.
Moreover, the situation of the two families was similar. Their relationship was very pure.
As for Qufu, he didn't think that they coveted the He family's property, but the He family's "wealth" was part of the reason.
