Chapter 220: Chapter 169: Will There Be Trouble? Part 3

"I’m heartbroken!"

"I don’t know if it’s heartbreak, I can only blame my lack of success. If I could do business like Zhang Erxiao, if only I were as rich as Zhang Erxiao."

"What kind of logic is that? Zhang Erxiao does have money, but how did he earn it? Of all the people to compare yourself with, why compare with a tobacco peddler?"

Han Xiangning patted his arm and advised, "San’er, you’re actually very hardworking and admirable. You’ve earned third-level merit twice within a year, who else can do that? Whether someone is admirable can’t be measured by how much money they make. Does the Old Political Commissar on your ship have money? But he’s a national labor model, highly respected by everyone."

Han Yu gave a bitter smile, "Now I can only think this way."

"Have confidence in yourself, you will definitely find a better girlfriend. I’ll keep an eye out for you, and introduce you to someone suitable."

"Right now I don’t want to think about anything, I just want to study hard and get my junior college diploma soon. I just want to save money, to get a house onshore first."

"That’s a good way to think."

Han Xiangning smiled faintly, and asked curiously, "San’er, last time in Qibao Town, where did she take you? Why did you come back to the hotel so late?"

Han Yu didn’t expect her to bring up the past again, and could only say with a pained expression, "She took me to see a lot of factories, all joint ventures."

"And then?"

"Then we went to the night market to grab some food, chatted for a while."

"What did you talk about?"

"We talked about jobs and salaries in East Sea, how those foreign-owned and joint ventures really have good benefits and high wages."

...

Meanwhile, Xiang Fan was walking while laughing and asking, "Shuqun, Mengmeng must have run off to find Liang Xiaojun. We just left, leaving Ningning and San’er at home, do you think something might happen?"

"What could happen?" Old Han looked back and asked.

"A young man and a young woman alone together, and both in their youth, what do you think might happen!"

"Trust Ningning, trust San’er."

Old Han looked back and continued with a laugh, "Besides, it’s not the first time the two kids have been alone together. When they were in Bailong Port, Ningning wouldn’t even go to the bathroom without calling San’er. Later, they rode the light motorcycle together to East Sea, even sharing a room in a hotel. If anything was to happen, it would have happened long ago, not wait until today."

Xiang Fan thought for a moment, then couldn’t help but laugh and ask, "Shuqun, are you actually hoping something will happen between the two kids?"

"A man should marry when he grows up, a woman when she comes of age, it’s just a matter of time. To be honest, I’m not worried about Ningning and San’er, but I am a bit worried about Mengmeng. Every chance she gets, she runs off to the medical college, not even staying home on Sundays. This can’t go on."

"If you know this can’t go on, why don’t you intervene?"

"Mengmeng’s all grown up, and Liang Xiaojun isn’t a stranger. How can I intervene in this kind of matter?"

"She’s not suitable for Xiao Jun."

"I know they’re not suitable, but what can I do? Am I supposed to call Old Liang out and have him control his son?"

Old Liang’s wife is notoriously unreasonable. If Mengmeng really marries into the Liang family, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship would definitely be problematic...

Thinking of Old Liang’s wife, who still gives him odd looks to this day, Xiang Fan said with a worried frown, "What kind of karma have we created? Mengmeng is also too stubborn, she won’t listen no matter what, it’s driving me to despair."

"Life is full of disappointments, one can’t have everything go smoothly."

Old Han heaved a sigh and then tried to speak lightly, "Besides, isn’t Ningning very reliable? If she can continue to be well with San’er, and they can end up together, our lives would also be complete."

Xiang Fan muttered, "So, are you giving up on Mengmeng?"

"I wouldn’t say giving up. The main thing is that they advocate for free love nowadays, and she’s dating Old Liang’s son, we can’t very well be breaking up lovebirds, can we?"

"Old Liang, really, where in the world couldn’t he have transferred to? He just had to transfer back to Binjiang."

"Old Liang only has the one son, Xiao Jun. His wife might actually like Mengmeng, might treat her well."

"Keep dreaming, I bet that if Xiao Jun and Mengmeng were to really tie the knot, there would be constant quarreling in the future, it would be chaos."

"Let’s cross that bridge when we come to it, don’t think too much about it now."

"Alright, there’s a market selling clothes up ahead, let’s see if there’s something for San’er to wear."
