Qin Hao said with a smile, "Man, you can stay as long as you like, we have plenty of rooms anyway."
At that moment, Han Meng brewed a pot of tea and poured a cup for each person, including Qin Youguo.
Seeing this, Qin Youguo hurriedly said, "Miss, you don't have to do that, I can pour it myself."
After speaking, he turned to Qin Hao and asked, "Xiao Hao, who is this?"
Qin Man and Li Shujie both looked at him with curiosity in their eyes. Han Meng was very beautiful, and they suspected Qin Hao was hiding a love interest.
Qin Hao said to Han Meng, "Meng, take a seat and relax, my parents are very easygoing."
Han Meng sat down cautiously on the sofa next to them.
Qin Hao briefly explained Han Meng's situation to his parents and his cousin.
After hearing the story, Li Shujie and Qin Man's eyes turned slightly red.
Mr. Qin, gritting his teeth with rage, said, "Such scum should be shot."
Mrs. Qin sat beside Han Meng, took her hand, and said, "From now on, treat this like your own home, Xiao Meng, and don't see me and your Mr. Qin as outsiders, we're all family now."
Han Meng nodded gently, her tears falling uncontrollably as she said, "Thank you, Auntie."
When she first heard that Qin Hao's parents were coming, she felt very nervous, afraid that she might not meet their expectations in some way.
After hearing the stories about the past from Qin Hao and Mrs. Qin's words, she felt both wronged and touched.
They talked for a while and then went to their rooms to rest, feeling a bit tired from traveling all day.
In the afternoon, Qin Hao and Han Meng went shopping and bought some groceries and meat, planning to make a delicious dinner in the evening.
Qin Hao also bought Han Meng a mobile phone, as it would be inconvenient to stay in touch without one while out.
After returning, the two began preparing dinner, since there were a lot of dishes to cook and Han Meng couldn't handle it all by herself.
Around five o'clock, Li Shujie and Qin Man woke up, freshened up, and came to the kitchen to help.
Seeing his mother, Qin Hao asked, "Mom, has Dad not woken up yet?"
"No," Li Shujie replied without turning her head.
Qin Hao hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mom, there's something I want to tell you about."
Li Shujie replied, "Go ahead."
Qin Hao said, "Would you come out for a second so I can tell you?"
Li Shujie, curious about her son's expression, washed her hands and then followed him out.
"What is so secretive? Come on, tell me, we've got so much food to prepare," Li Shujie said as they walked into the yard.
Qin Hao hesitated for a moment, then finally asked, "Are Li Pingrong, Li Pingchang, and Li Pingsheng my uncles?"
Li Shujie was taken aback and asked, "Xiao Hao, how did you come to know about them?"
Qin Hao inquired, "Do you know Li Mingzhe?"
Li Shujie nodded, "You mean Mingzhe, your eldest uncle's son? I know him."
Qin Hao said, "Mom, I beat him up. He's been throwing his weight around in the Li family, trying to force Ying, I mean Zhao Yuying, to sleep with him."
After he finished, he looked at his mother, knowing that his actions could potentially put her in a difficult situation.
Li Shujie smiled without any hesitation or thought and replied, "Xiao Hao, remember that you are my son. We will always be the closest to each other, and no matter what you do, I will always stand by your side. Don't think too much about it, I'm going to cook now."
Qin Hao watched his mother's departing figure with a smile on his face, his heart feeling warm.
He was also more determined in his decision that he must take his parents to visit the Li family at the end of the year.
He wanted to show the Li family that he, Qin Hao, was the one they couldn't reach!
Not long after, Qiao'er came back, and both Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin liked her very much when they saw her.
Qiao'er was smart, pretty, and cute.
The two had long wanted to welcome a granddaughter and were therefore very fond of her.
In the evening, when it was time for dinner, Qin Hao invited Zhao Xingbo and his two companions over, although Wang Zhi and Zhao Yuying hadn't intended to come.
But Qin Hao insisted that they join, and they didn't refuse any further, so they went.
Tonight, Zhao Xingbo and Qin Youguo drank quite a bit, and Wang Zhi was also working on building a relationship with Li Shujie.
After dinner, Wang Zhi and Zhao Yuying helped clean up the dining table.
Nine thirty at night.
After getting Qin Youguo back to his room, Li Shujie sat on the living room sofa with Qiao'er beside her.
Han Meng and Qin Man were chatting and watching TV.
Li Shujie asked Qin Hao, "Xiao Hao, how's your girlfriend? Invite her over for dinner tomorrow?"
Qin Hao, "Mom, she went abroad for her studies."
"Went abroad for studies? How long will that take?" Li Shujie frowned.
Qin Hao, "Six months, not too long."
Li Shujie, "Oh, there are so many outstanding people abroad, don't let her be fooled away."
Qin Hao with a head full of black lines, "Mom, you're overthinking it."
After watching TV for a while, everyone went back to their rooms to rest, and Qin Hao went back to his room, watched Xia Qing livestream for a while, and then went to sleep.
After breakfast, Qin Hao said to his parents, "Mom and Dad, I'll take Man first to the company, then I'll come back and take you out."
"Change cars when you come back, this one isn't comfortable to ride in," said Mr. Qin.
Qin Hao paused for a moment, "Uh, okay!"
At around nine in the morning, Qin Hao arrived at the company with Qin Man.
The receptionist at the front desk greeted him as Mr. Qin and was curious about Qin Man beside him.
Qin Man was surprised to see hundreds of people sitting in the office area, realizing the scale of his company.
She knew Jiangshan Roasted Duck was strong in Shuinan Province, but she had not expected it to be so impressive in Jianghai as well.
This is the pricey Jianghai City!
Qin Hao took her to his office, and Nie Si was already there.
Qin Hao said to Nie Si, "Nie Assistant, this is my secretary Qin Man. You'll be responsible for getting her familiar with the work."
Nie Si, with light makeup and an indifferent expression, nodded, "Okay, Mr. Qin."
Nie Si, hearing the name Qin Man, knew she must be related to Mr. Qin in a significant way.
Qin Hao, "Man, this is Nie Assistant. Follow her and learn for a bit."
Qin Man nodded, "Hmm okay, call me Secretary Qin in the company, don't call me sister."
Qin Hao with an awkward smile, "Okay, Secretary Qin."
Nie Si was seeing for the first time someone who dared to talk to Qin Hao . Even Mr. Feng wouldn't dare to speak to Mr. Qin in such a manner, right?
Qin Hao, "Secretary Qin, I'm heading back now."
After leaving the company, Qin Hao took his parents around Jianghai City for a good tour.
Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin stayed for about a week before returning to Jiangshan.
During that time, Qin Hao didn't go to school or to the company; he spent the entire week with his parents described by the phrase 'eating, drinking, and merry-making'.
While they were out buying water, Qin Hao sneakily added a bottle of "Life Water" into the mineral water.
The health of his parents was what he wished for the most.
Qin Man also moved out of his villa. First, because it was inconvenient for going to work, and second, she didn't want to affect her younger brother's private life.
His villa returned to its usual tranquility.
