ctor came for his usual check-up.Towards Evening got up and opened the door. Unexpectedly, in addition to the doctor who often came, Lu Yancen and Aunt Liu were also standing at the door."Aunt Liu" Au..."It's best if Mrs. Xiang and Mr. Xiang leave now." He Hanchuan glanced at her before turning to Yu Jingyun and Xiang Jianguo, "No matter how much Xiang Wan hates you, she wouldn't do something like attacking her own parents."
向晚 handed the water cup to He Hanchuan, then lay down. "I'm a little tired, please go back."
Hearing her about to drive him away again, Xiang Jian Guo's face changed. Just as he was about to speak, He Han Chuan interrupted him, "Since Mr. Xiang and Mrs. Xiang care so much about Xiang Wan and want to gain her forgiveness, they must also prioritize her health, right"
The words that had reached Jian Guo's lips were swallowed back down, his face ashen.
"...Then let's go back first and come again in the afternoon." Yujing glanced at Xiang Wan, sadly instructing: "Wanwan, your dad and I brought you some supplements. Eat more, it's good for your health."
Yuan was facing away from her, silent.
Yu Jingyun forced her eyes away and added one more instruction, urging her to rest well and take care of her health, before leaving with red-rimmed eyes.
I was about to persuade Jian Guo here some more, but she pulled me away forcefully.
The door to the ward closed, isolating the couple's quarreling voices outside. Inside the ward, you could still vaguely hear them arguing, but what they were arguing about was unclear.
But it's pretty easy to guess that it's about something related to her argument.
She took a deep breath, her throat feeling a little scratchy. "Was I... too harsh"
"If you don't show them no mercy, they'll only show you none." He gazed at her curled-up figure, his eyes softening. "Your father made you go back with ulterior motives, your mother simply wanted you to return, but you're so easily swayed."
"You have a strong temper and never back down or find a more tactful way to handle things. When you disagree with your dad, your mom will definitely side with him."
向晚 clenched her blanket tightly, then let go and sat up, staring blankly at the bed.
He raised his hand, but stopped short. He glanced at her with a faint trace of sympathy in his eyes, “Would you like to eat something”

At the same time, in another ward.
Jiang Qingran had already 'woken up'. At this time, she was sitting on the bed looking out the window. She hugged her knees with both hands, her face pale and her eyes still carrying undiminished redness, making people feel pity just by looking at her.
"You are so excellent, why hang yourself on a single tree" Jiang's father advised: "Besides Hanchuan, Runze, Zhong Jia's young master, and Zhao family's few young talents who are currently training in the army, they are all outstanding figures."
Jiang Qingran bit her lip and said softly, "Junze is indeed outstanding, but compared to Hanchuan, he's still lacking. Otherwise, Grandpa He wouldn't have let Hanchuan be the president of He Group even though he favors Junze."
Father Jiang remained silent, which could be taken as consent.
"Zhong Yuxuan is capable, but he doesn't get enough recognition at home. Now Zhong Shaoning, the illegitimate son of the Zhong family, is flaunting his power in the family business, which proves this point."
As for those young Zhao family members who have military experience, their backgrounds, appearances, and character are not bad. However, their military background is of little help to the Jiang Group for the next thirty years, and they are not suitable for the He family.
Besides, considering my mother's and Uncle He's relationship, do you think the Zhao family would agree to me marrying into their family Jiang Qingran said.
Hearing the last words, Father Jiang's eyes flashed a hint of darkness, but it quickly returned to normal. "Runze is not much worse than Hanchuan. Besides, with Old Master He paving the way for him, his future achievements may not be inferior to Hanchuan."
Jiang Qingran raised the corners of her lips in a small arc. "But Dad, I'll only marry the best one."
"You..."
As soon as Jiang's father spoke, he was gently interrupted by Jiang Qingran, "The Xiang Group is no match for the Jiang Group, and it won't be in the next few years."
A look of disgust crossed her face, “Besides dancing, she knows nothing. She’s all chest and no brains, not worthy of Kanagawa at all. Kanagawa is the best of his generation, and so am I. We are the most perfect match in every way!”
Father Jiang let out a long sigh and, after much hesitation, said: "Even though I want to make more money and elevate Jiang Corporation to the next level, it doesn't necessarily have to be through your marriage."
"Dad, there's no need to worry." Jiang Qingran smiled faintly. "I like Hanchuan, that's why I want to marry him. Helping the Jiang Group is just a side thing, something I do voluntarily."
Silence.
After a long silence, Jiang's father said softly, "But Hanchuan dislikes you, even... one could say he hates you. Why do you insist"
Jiang Qingran's smile froze for a moment, then she lowered her eyes, "I don't like to do things in vain."
Could it be that all her hard work amounted to nothing
She couldn't get over this hurdle in her heart.
Besides, she never liked to give up halfway. She believed that God always rewards those who work hard and diligently, and she felt that Koharu would eventually understand her feelings.
As for A-wai... the more she's unattainable, the more agitated she becomes. Hanchuan is just someone who couldn't accept his loyal pursuer giving up on him, so he ended up with A-wai out of helplessness.
Jiang's father frowned, still hesitating.
"Seeing this, Jiang Qingran said: 'Now that the Jiang Group has entered the appliance market, the cumulative investment over the past two years has been considerable.'"
"If Hanchuan got married to Xiang Wan right now, the Xiang Corporation would definitely join forces with the He Corporation. At that time, the Jiang Corporation would only be forced to withdraw from the market, and all the money invested would be lost."
To be honest, these words hit Jiang's father right in the feels.
Jiang Qingran saw that he had already loosened up, and smiled: "Dad, just rest assured, I have never failed to do what I want."
"I have great faith in your abilities," Father Jiang hesitated, "But after all, you're a woman. It's best to marry, raise children, and live a good life. There's no need to live so hard."
Hearing this, Jiang Qingran frowned slightly and sighed, "Could it be that Dad also favors sons over daughters"
"If I really had that intention, how could I let you become the CFO of Jiang's Group" said Mr. Jiang.
"Well then, Father needn't worry too much." Jiang Qingran said softly: "My brother is two years older than me and he is very capable among his peers, but he is too rigid in his work and places too much emphasis on romantic relationships. It would be unwise to hand over the Jiang Group to him."
She hit the nail on the head with every word, dispelling any last reservations Mr. Jiang had. However, he still cautioned, "If you can't hold on, don't force it. The Jiang Group can survive without you."
Jiang Qingran nodded and acted coquettishly: "I knew Dad loved me the most, it's just that my brother..."
"A reckless young man who only cares about his romantic pursuits, ignore him!" When it came to Jiang Qi Feng, Jiang's father's face darkened.
Jiang Qingran nodded and sighed, "My brother said he wanted to break the engagement with the Song family. Dad should still think about how to minimize the losses from this."
As soon as the words left her mouth, Jiang's mother rushed in just then. The two of them didn't say anything more about that matter.
