"Manager Zhang, thanks a lot! You did Mufan Real Estate a huge favor! Thank you!” Qiu Mu-Cheng expressed her gratitude to Zhang Zheng-Fu as her heart was brimming with exhilaration.
Qiu Mu-Cheng had already given up.
But she didn't think that a single call from Zhang Zheng-Fu could turn the tables in her favor. Now the annual meeting would proceed as planned, and Mayor Han even called personally to invite her over.
Qiu Mu-Cheng recalled how Ye Fan played her out last night. Zhang Zheng-Fu was undoubtedly far more reliable in comparison to Ye Fan.
But Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't blame Ye Fan since his family were farmers and destined never to enjoy as much respect or be as capable. Instead, she was annoyed that Ye Fan fooled her and kept her up for nothing last night.
Zhang Zheng-Fu was a little confused as he looked at how excited Qiu Mu-Cheng and Su Qian became.
He was clearly lost. What just happened here?
Didn't his father refuse to help him? Why did he agree and even get Han Dong-Min to call personally?
"Was Dad just sounding harsh but helped me to settle the matter secretly even though he said he wouldn't? To think Mayor Han even called personally. He must hold Dad in high regard," thought Zhang Zheng-Fu as he became instantly delighted at how much his father doted on him.
After thinking things through, Zhang Zheng-Fu cleared his throat and said calmly in a pretentious tone, "Miss Qiu, it's nothing, don't mention it. I'm happy to help."
"Young Master Zhang, you're incredible. You settled it all with a single phone call. Now the dinner is proceeding as planned, and Mayor Han even notified us personally. You sure command a lot of respect," Su Qian applauded Zhang Zheng-Fu nonstop. The more Su Qian thought about it, the more amazed she was.
Zhang Zheng-Fu waved his hand and said composedly, "It's nothing. It's my Dad who commands respect since he's a little famous in the business circles, so such things are nothing to him. I can't do the same as I'm just an unimportant employee."
He was just being pretentious.
Although Zhang Zheng-Fu worded it modestly, he sounded inflated.
Su Qian was impressed and muttered to Qiu Mu-Cheng and told her to seize the opportunity.
"Young Master Zhang is talented and comes from an influential family. Guys like him are a million times better than the likes of Ye Fan. Aren't you tempted at all? Mu-Cheng, take it from me, I can tell Young Master Zhang likes you. You should hang out with him more and try to make things between the two of you happen," persuaded Su Qian softly to Qiu Mu-Cheng.
Qiu Mu-Cheng glared at her instead and said, "Qianqian, what are you saying? Why are you just like my mum? I'll repeat myself - I have no intention of divorcing Ye Fan."
"You..." said Su Qian angrily.
After thinking about it for a while, Su Qian decided Qiu Mu-Cheng probably didn't know him well enough, and Qiu Mu-Cheng might change her mind in time.
Meanwhile.
Han Dong-Min had finally found Ye Fan. He kept apologizing bitterly nonstop to Ye Fan with a sorry look on his face.
After witnessing Ye Fan's ability, Han Dong-Min lost all the stern airs he had when he scolded Ye Fan previously. Instead, he lowered himself like a terrified servant who had gotten into huge trouble.
Ye Fan coldly smiled when he saw how terrified Han Dong-Min was and sneered, "Mayor Han, what's gotten into you? Where did all your sense of authority go? Didn't you call me out for my audacity and threaten to throw me into jail for the rest of my life? Why the swift change in attitude?"
Although Ye Fan smiled calmly, the hint of coldness in his tone struck terror in Han Dong-Min.
There was a look of regret on Han Dong-Min's face. The moment he heard Ye Fan say this, he was so terrified that he almost cried as he said, "Master Ye, you're teasing me. I really know I was wrong. I spoke arrogantly to Master Ye because I was blinded by an evil man. Otherwise, I would never have the nerve to claim you were audacious. Master Ye saved me in my time of need with your keen eye and gave me a new lease of life. If I didn't get misled, I would never have become an ingrate and maliciously slander you."
Han Dong-Min sounded bitter and absolutely sincere as he was truly apologetic and regretful about what he did to Ye Fan.
Since Ye Fan could see how sincere Han Dong-Min's apology was, he stopped making things difficult for him.
