Chapter 1107: Chapter 1107: Love and Hatred Are Irrational
Zhang Yudong had gone upstairs to welcome the prestigious guest, though Qian Haoyu had intended to leave.
Qian Haoyu himself, in his own eyes, was also a "prestigious guest"!
How could he possibly wait here to greet people? Wouldn’t that be lowering his own status?
However, Huo Yumeng had no intention of leaving at all.
She was very curious—was the guest arriving as Zhang Yudong had said, a guest of the Zhang family patriarch?
It was rumored that the mystery guest was a young woman?
Being a guest of the Zhang family was one thing.
How could she possibly be a guest of Zhang Tianyu? This guest was not the same as that guest!
How could Zhang Tianyu possibly make the acquaintance of a beautiful young woman!
And not even consider the implications!
What was her background and status?
Huo Yumeng was both curious and somewhat defensive because, in her eyes, Zhang Yudong was her future husband.
To let Zhang Yudong go welcome a young and beautiful woman with potentially distinguished status?
She wasn’t reassured!
Huo Yumeng wasn’t leaving, and suddenly Qian Haoyu felt that he shouldn’t leave either.
This old woman Huo Yumeng was shrewd; if she wanted to take this opportunity to get acquainted with that guest, to expand the Huo Family’s connections...
Then he, Qian Haoyu, couldn’t miss out!
The Huo Family couldn’t have all the good fortune to themselves!
With that thought, Qian Haoyu also decided not to leave.
The two of them waiting there, with Zhou Dabin standing behind Qian Haoyu, also looked curiously in the direction Zhang Yudong had gone.
...
In less than fifteen minutes, a group of people emerged from the elevator area.
Everyone immediately saw Zhang Yudong.
However, Zhang Yudong was merely accompanying, with the real protagonist being a young man with black hair and eyes, who had a friendly smile and, at first glance, seemed unremarkable.
Behind those two, there followed a man and a woman.
The man had a robust frame and a powerful build, walking with a tiger-like stride.
The other woman, from a distance, put Huo Yumeng on alert.
That woman, though not dressed as lavishly as she was, seemed to have even more poise and during her walk, combined elegance with a spirited air, her eyes shining with confidence.
She was not like Huo Yumeng who centered her career around "buy, buy, buy," treating running a company as a mere hobby.
Huo Yumeng was immediately wary of her.
At the end of the group was Liu Beicheng and servants of the Zhang Family.
"How can it be, he is Zhang Tianyu’s Uncle Zhang’s guest?" Qian Haoyu couldn’t believe it, pointing at Bai Xiaosheng from afar, and couldn’t help but say to Huo Yumeng beside him.
Seeing with his own eyes, he still didn’t believe!
In his view, what virtues and abilities could this young man possess to ride in the Zhang family’s Rolls-Royce!
Even he himself didn’t qualify, and his dad had only ridden in it once!
"Maybe he didn’t come here in that car, that Rolls-Royce might just have happened to come back," Huo Yumeng couldn’t help but say, "This person might have taken another car up!"
Huo Yumeng also didn’t believe that Bai Xiaosheng qualified to ride in a car that only Zhang Tianyu would be worthy of.
Actually, Qian Haoyu and Huo Yumeng were both mistaken about one thing.
The "old man" referred to by Zhang Yudong wasn’t his father Zhang Tianyu.
It was his grandfather Zhang Xi!
Zhang Tianyu was the chairman of the Zhang Family Group, the helmsman of the Zhang family, but when it came to truly important matters, it was Zhang Xi who had the final say!
Zhang Tianyu just had to listen!
How esteemed that Mr. Zhang Xi was!
Qian Haoyu and Huo Yumeng couldn’t even dare to think, breaking their heads over it, that Bai Xiaosheng could be his honored guest!
The difference in age.
The difference in status.
After all, in the surrounding provinces, the Zhang family ruled as kings!
They didn’t even believe that Bai Xiaosheng could really be a guest of Zhang Tianyu.
As the saying goes, limited insight restricts their imagination; if they knew Bai Xiaosheng’s standing was on par with Zhang Tianyu, and not mentioned alongside Zhang Xi, it was because the elder Mr. Zhang Xi and Masters Song Kai and Xiahou Qi were old friends.
Bai Xiaosheng willingly took a step back, consenting to observe the protocols of a junior.
...
"Yes, yes, I think your guess is not wrong, it must be so, he took another car up," Qian Haoyu nodded continuously, then frowned again, "But why would Yudong personally go to meet him? Could this person be more honorable than me?"
What he said made Huo Yumeng roll her eyes directly.
"Qian Haoyu, do you really think of yourself as such a prestigious guest?"
"Even so, you’ve been to the Zhang family back and forth so many times, you’re practically a regular guest."
Huo Yumeng didn’t spare her sarcasm, "Otherwise, don’t come for a year or two, then when you come back, Brother Dong might welcome you like this."
She had wanted to say some things to Qian Haoyu for a long time.
Don’t take yourself for more than you are every day, ignorant of your own place!
The Zhang Family people should be thankful, but that’s no reason for you Qian Haoyu, for your Qian Family to overestimate yourselves!
"Huo Yumeng, what are you saying!" Qian Haoyu was immediately displeased, but glancing over at Zhang Yudong, who was chatting and laughing with Bai Xiaosheng, his face grew ugly.
Zhang Yudong was doing this on purpose, wasn’t he?
Weren’t greeters supposed to be women when they talked about welcoming honored guests?
And as for friends of the old master of the Zhang Family, what status does Zhang Tianyu have to stoop so low as to buddy up with this kind of nobody?
The more Qian Haoyu thought about it, the surer he was that Zhang Yudong had done it on purpose!
Was he tired of being so ostentatious?
Now even when I talk to you, your gaze isn’t as sincere as it used to be.
Well then, are you trying to embarrass me on purpose?
Zhang Yudong, you, your Zhang Family are a bunch of ungrateful ingrates!
Qian Haoyu cursed inwardly.
He was convinced of his judgment, his eyes filled with barely concealed anger.
Huo Yumeng glanced at him, then sneered, "What, not happy?"
"Your Qian Family helped the Zhangs, but how much have you taken from them in return?"
"Don’t tell me it was a little, it was more than tenfold! The Zhangs don’t owe you anything!"
Huo Yumeng added insult to injury.
"If you’re talking about this time, the status of that young man over there might not surpass you by much, but Brother Dong personally went to greet him, not you, don’t you get it..."
"One must be self-aware, you’ve been reminded enough by others. My dear old classmate!"
Huo Yumeng’s mocking fanned the flames.
Anger surged in Qian Haoyu’s heart.
However, soon, that anger quickly redirected to another person.
Bai Xiaosheng!
Falling out with the Zhang Family wouldn’t bring any benefits...
But this guy, he could vent on!
In full view of everyone, Zhang Yudong received a phone call, then smilingly said something to Bai Xiaosheng next to him and had Liu Beicheng lead the way for Bai Xiaosheng and the others to leave.
This scene, witnessed by Qian Haoyu and Huo Yumeng, only strengthened their belief that Bai Xiaosheng was nothing special.
Otherwise, why wouldn’t Zhang Yudong have personally escorted him to the hall?
What the two of them didn’t know was that the call Zhang Yudong received was from his grandfather, Zhang Xi.
Old Master Zhang Xi felt that since Bai Xiaosheng had taken the trouble to come, he wanted Zhang Yudong to go to the manor’s wine cellar and bring out a bottle of his treasured red wine.
If Qian Haoyu and Huo Yumeng knew this, they’d be dumbfounded.
Such hospitality, even the top official of Dayou City might not enjoy!
There were several exits in this hall, and Bai Xiaosheng and his group left through a different side.
Qian Haoyu watched coldly as Bai Xiaosheng and the others left, his gaze was quite unfriendly.
Huo Yumeng, on the other hand, was all smiles, feeling refreshed.
Unfortunately, soon after Bai Xiaosheng and his group left the hall, Lin Weiwei returned and went straight to Zhang Yudong.
Seeing this, Huo Yumeng became alert at the sight of the woman she saw as a threat smiling and talking with Zhang Yudong.
Zhang Yudong was all smiles, looking somewhat radiant, nodding frequently.
He seemed very pleased!
This time, it was Huo Yumeng’s turn to suddenly change color.
Upon seeing this, Qian Haoyu chuckled.
"Ha-ha, so it turns out that Yudong’s interest in wine was just a pretense!"
"What honored guest, turns out he had his eye on the woman by his side!"
After being humiliated by Huo Yumeng, Qian Haoyu found a chance for revenge.
Huo Yumeng’s possessiveness was already through the roof and seeing Zhang Yudong’s warm smiles at that woman, her anger rapidly grew, further fueled by Qian Haoyu’s taunting. Finally, Huo Yumeng stamped her foot in rage and turned to leave.
"That little slut, daring to seduce Brother Dong without knowing her lowly status!"
"There are too many people here, and for Brother Dong’s reputation, I, Huo Yumeng, who has class, will let you off for now!"
"But later, I’ll make you lose all your dignity in front of everyone!"
Huo Yumeng ground her teeth, her pretty face frosted over.
Offending a woman is not scary, but offending a possessive one with heavy jealousy is truly terrifying!
While Qian Haoyu took delight in others’ misfortune, he noticed the beauty talking with Zhang Yudong and then quickly leaving, alongside the young man that Zhang Yudong had once accompanied.
Upon seeing this, Qian Haoyu’s face also darkened.
"So it’s like that, Zhang Yudong, you refuse to give me face this time, then I won’t give face to your ’honored guest’ either!"
Qian Haoyu’s expression darkened slightly as he left with Zhou Dabin.
Bai Xiaosheng had no idea that just because Zhang Yudong had received him, he had offended a man.
And just because he had wanted to drink some of the tea praised by Liu Beicheng on the way here, and had asked Lin Weiwei to mention it, he had offended a woman.
The love, hatred, gratitude, and grudges between people are sometimes so unimaginable.
So unreasonable!
