Han Zheng was genuinely worried about Han Muyang.
In his previous life, Han Muyang hadn’t been admitted to college, instead attending a normal school for teachers.
Because Han Xiao, Han Muchuan, and Han Mi always mocked him for his lack of intellect, he had not joined Han’s business after graduating and had found a teaching job on his own.
Fortunately, he was well-suited to this profession and achieved remarkable results.
He had been satisfied with this life, sadly, the girl he later fell in love with had very status-minded parents who didn’t know he was one of the young masters of Han’s. Thinking he was just a poor teacher, they arranged for their daughter to lose her chastity to a wealthy man.
Under these circumstances, the girl had no choice but to marry someone else. Upon finding out, Han Muyang nearly died from depression.
Thus, Han Zheng hoped that this foolish child could become a well-known wealthy man in this life.
Meng Chuyue didn’t know about Han Muyang’s past life, but from Han Zheng’s words, she guessed that Han Muyang must have kept a low profile and suffered a great setback.
She smiled and nodded, "Brother Five is a good person, just too straightforward. I’ll have Ah Ci take good care of him."
Han Zheng sighed, "Have you really decided on Shen Ci?"
Meng Chuyue giggled, "Well, that’s the case until I meet someone even more handsome."
Han Zheng also laughed, "With you saying this, I feel relieved, really, I’d rather you just like him for his face."
He’d rather it be just a superficial liking.
Having lived through another lifetime, Han Zheng knew that in another decade or so, young people’s views on love would be very liberal.
Moreover, Shen Ci had liked Meng Chuyue in his previous life too.
But in that life, he hadn’t pursued her because he thought her health too frail for marriage, and he proclaimed himself a singleton. With Lin Fangwei constantly pestering him, he chose to stay away.
Later, when Meng Chuyue’s true circumstances were revealed, he was filled with regret and heartache. He not only harshly punished Zhao Sulan and Lin Fangwei in prison but also made Lin Youdong’s life a living hell.
However, just when he mustered the courage to pursue Meng Chuyue, he suddenly fell seriously ill. By the time he had recovered, she had already died.
Shen Ci also continued searching for her murderer, and it was for this reason that Han Zheng learned of Shen Ci’s unrequited love.
Of course, Han Zheng wouldn’t tell Meng Chuyue about these things now.
People change, and although Shen Ci had been devoted in his previous life, this life was different, and who could guarantee his heart wouldn’t change due to the twist of fate?
Therefore, he wouldn’t play the matchmaker, nor would he assist Shen Ci.
More than half an hour later, Han Zheng reluctantly left.
Carrying two large milk teas that Meng Chuyue had packed for him.
Before he left, Meng Chuyue earnestly instructed him, "Please don’t drink both cups at once, save one for tomorrow."
Han Zheng agreed with a smile, feeling warm inside but involuntarily thought of Zhao Sulan.
Zhao Sulan had disgusted him in both her past and present life, yet, if not for her, Meng Chuyue wouldn’t exist, and that was an undeniable fact.
So, it was one thing not to deal with her, but he couldn’t bring himself to completely hate her.
This made Han Zheng feel very stifled, but thinking that Meng Chuyue was the one truly suffering, he stopped dwelling on it—even for Chuyue’s sake, he couldn’t show any leniency towards Zhao Sulan.
Let others misunderstand him if they must.
Say he was heartless, cold, or cruel...
He didn’t care, as long as his daughter was happy.
Although anxious, Han Zheng didn’t rush to divide the family the next day.
He waited three days, until Friday night, before instructing someone to notify each of his six adopted sons and daughters to absolutely return to the Han Family’s old mansion the next day.
Being rare behavior from Han Zheng, Han Mi and the others felt it was serious, and they all returned early the next morning.
Han Muyang was no exception; after getting up and freshening up, he packed some breakfast and hurried off.
Ever since Old Master Han passed away five years ago, Han Zheng had moved to the antique street, where only the elderly butler couple remained.
