Sweet Beauty

Mother Cui hesitated for a moment before stuttering. "Y...Yes, Xiwang is here, but..."

Old Man Han was unhappy. "What's wrong? A single Han Xiwang could scare you to this extent?"

"No." Mother Cui quickly walked over and stood in front of Old Madam Han and others. She whispered, "He actually brought Jiang Ning and Liao Yan."

"Nonsense!" Old Man Han was immediately angered when he heard that. "What day is it today? Didn't he know? Why did he bring the people of the Jiang Family here?! Did he want to tear our family down!"

Old Madam Han was also quite angry. "This little son of mine is so stupid! Even though he knows that our family doesn't like Jiang Ning, he still went on about her and Jun. Whose appearance and behavior did he take!"

Old Madam Han looked at Old Man Han when she said this.

Old Man Han's eyebrows jumped. "Don't look at me. I'm not as stupid as him!"

Tian Qihua slapped the pen in her hand on the table and stood angrily. "I will drive them away. My son is finally engaged. It doesn't matter whether his uncle is here or not!"

Han Qingsheng pulled her back and gently advised, "If it is only Han Xiwang, you could drive him away, but with Jiang Ning and Liao Yan here, I'm worried things won't be good. Since they are here, we can't chase them away just like that, right?"

Old Man Han nodded. "Let them in, I'd like to see what they have to say in front of my face."

Since Old Man Han was already talking, Tian Qihua was naturally unable to chase them out. She said unhappily, "Dad, if anything happens, I will be the first one to refute. If that Jiang Ning and Liao Yan were here to bless Jun's engagement, I would raise my hand to greet them, but if they were in here to stir the trouble, don't blame me for not showing good intentions to them!"

Old Madam Han and Tian Qihua shared the same hatred. "That's right. I won't give them any face either!"

Old Man Han's eyes widened and he slapped the table hard. "Don't talk about you. I'm the first one who will give them a hard time!"

Mother Cui smiled and went to open the door.

The moment the door opened, Han Xiwang complained impatiently. "Why are you so slow? We've all been standing outside for a long time!"

Without a word, Mother Cui headed to the kitchen.

Han Xiwang immediately shouted. "Hey, Mother Cui, what's wrong with your attitude? I'm talking to you!"

A voice filled with energy came from the Old Man. "We didn't hear you. If you want to come in, then come in. If you don't want to come in, then leave!"

Han Xiwang sensed that he was going to die today, but Jiang Ning and  Liao Yan had both come along, and he didn't want them to leave. He could only muster up the courage to smile at them. "Hehe, please come in."

Although the Jiang Family was not weak and even though SAIC International could occupy a seat in the market, compared to a great clan like the Han Family, they were still nothing more than small shrimps.

Back then, when Jiang Ning's grandfather had started his family, if it weren't for the help of the Old Man Han, the current Jiang Family would not even exist.

Therefore, no matter how uncomfortable Jiang Ning's heart was, she didn't dare to get angry. She still had to show a face of smiles and went to fawn over the people of the Han Family.

"Grandpa Han, Grandma Han, Auntie, Uncle."

Jiang Ning pretended to be nice as she greeted the elders one by one.

Old Man Han just nodded his head. Old Madam Han also replied indifferently. Tian Qihua pretended not to hear her while lowering her head to look at the list in her hand.

Jiang Ning was a bit embarrassed, and Liao Yan wasn't in a good position to throw a tantrum. She politely greeted the elders and the others.

"Dad, what time is it? Why isn't Jun here yet? And that grandmother of Liang Zixuan's, isn't she too unruly? They want us to just wait like this?"

The moment Han Xiwang opened his mouth, he started to find trouble with Liang Zixuan.

Liao Yan pulled Jiang Ning to sit on the side. Hearing Han Xiwang's words, Jiang Ning smiled and said, "That's no wonder. People from small families don't know the rules, unlike us, Jiang Family, who are well-informed and most filial to their elders."

Old Madam Han had really kept her promise. As soon as she heard Jiang Ning's words, her face instantly darkened. She said with a fake smile. "That's right, that's why the children of our Han Family can't climb up and can't be compared to yours."

Liao Yan's face turned red at Old Madam Han's words. She was so embarrassed to the point she couldn't say anything.

Jiang Ning knew that the elders in the Han Family didn't like her, so she bit her lip and said with a grievance. "It's not that the Han Family can't be compared to our family, it's just that I am not suitable for the Han Family."

"Ning, what are you talking about!" Han Xiwang tugged on Jiang Ning's hand. "It's all because of Liang Zixuan's scheming. You're so naive, how could you be her opponent?"

Tian Qihua could clearly hear the anger in his voice. She put down the list in her hands, raised her head, and calmly looked at Han Xiwang. "Xiwang, tell me, why is Liang Zixuan so scheming?"

Han Xiwang was stunned. Was the sun rising from the west?

Tian Qihua actually didn't get angry with him?

Her attitude was so good?

He believed that Tian Qihua also wanted to know what kind of person Liang Zixuan was, which was why she didn't get angry with him.

"Sister-in-law, let me tell you, Liang Zixuan really isn't a good person. Didn't Ning previously work at Han Group? You all know that, right?"

Tian Qihua nodded her head in agreement. "I know, you mentioned it when you came back, back then."

"Yes!" Han Xiwang suddenly felt that he had found a comrade that could help him point the gun at his enemies, so he tried to pull Tian Qihua into his faction. "Ning worked in the same department as Liang Zixuan. Liang Zixuan always went against Ning in every possible way, finding trouble with her whenever she had nothing to do. A few months ago, didn't Liang Zixuan become the Music Director for that crappy movie? It just so happens that Ning is also the Music Director for her movie! And guess what?"

Tian Qihua and Old Madam Han listened with relish as they asked in unison, "What's wrong?"

Han Xiwang said angrily, "That Liang Zixuan doesn't know what's good for her. She even publicly made a bet with Ning, saying that she would fight her way to the top at the Venice Film Festival! The loser gets out of the music industry and is never allowed to be in the music profession again!"

Tian Qihua and Old Madam Han knew about the Venice Film Festival and how Liang Zixuan won the prize.

The two of them looked at each other and laughed in an unkind manner.

Han Xiwang didn't see the interaction between the two of them and even spoke up for Jiang Ning. "Don't you think that Liang Zixuan is so shrewd? She actually used such a despicable method to squeeze Ning out of the Han Group! She, who has never even gone to university, is actually so arrogant. How can you let someone like that enter our Han Family?!"

Jiang Ning's eyes reddened, and she started sobbing. "It's all my fault. I didn't expect Liang Zixuan to be so bad. In order to not let me be together with Brother Jun, she used such a shameful method to squeeze me out of the Han Group.. Actually, Brother Jun and I have a good relationship."
