Chapter 10 (1/2)

(T/N: h.e.l.lo! Sorry, it took a while to find the raws for this again! Three chapters will be released today for make up for last week and three more tomorrow to meet this week's quota!)

After finis.h.i.+ng greeting various businessmen, Fang Botao walked back with a wine gla.s.s in his hand, “As for Tang Zhan's two sons, the older one is quite steady but the younger one is way too reckless, he's not suitable for you.”

Feng Ping drank some wine, “It's not like I like him.”

Fang Botao lightly laughed, “Really? Then how come I feel like you're having an awfully fun time playing with him?”

Feng Ping's face turned red and pretended to be angry as she coughed dryly, “Uncle Fang—”

Fang Botao stopped laughing and pretended to speak sorrowfully, “Us elderly people like to gossip, don't blame me for meddling.”

Feng Ping laughed and then gave a sudden sigh, “Tang Jianan is a frivolous person, he's not good enough. But Uncle Fang, I haven't met anyone better yet.” Pausing a bit, she added another sentence on, “Besides, no one's perfect.”

Fang Botao also gave a deep sigh, “Aye, I really hope that you can be happy, but happiness is like a gla.s.s of water, aye…”

Feng Ping was unwilling to continue talking about her matters and took the opportunity to change topics, “Uncle Fang, I'm here to persuade you for Junhao.”

Fang Botao saw that she was quite honest and couldn't help but laugh, “I guessed as much. Hehe, that means that he's set on it this time? Why didn't he tell me himself/”

“He's always been a little afraid of you.”

“Am I very scary?” Fang Botao rubbed his chin, his face had a torn expression, “When he was little, I was the one who dressed up as Santa Claus one Christmas to give you guys candy.”

Feng Ping inserted, “The key point is Junhao thinks you're scary.”

Fang Botao had a long face, “That's because he always brought you and Bingchen and them to do dangerous things when you all were little…”

Feng Ping snorted, “If I remember right, it was clearly Bingchen and Junhao who wanted to ditch us, so we followed them.”

“No matter what, he's too naughty. It's my fault for not teaching him well.”

“You're too strict.” Feng Ping didn't hold back.

Fang Botao seriously replied, “The Fang family has always been loyal to the Feng family. Two hundred years of rules and traditions cannot be destroyed in my generation.”

Feng Ping sighed, “No wonder why Junhao said that you're a rock in a pit…”

Fang Botao glared at her, “That brat dared to say that about me?”

Feng Ping laughed, “Uncle Fang, the person breaking the rules is me. I support Junhao doing what he likes, plus the hotel's management organization has already been in place for such a long time, it'll be fine even if you hand it to someone else. It doesn't have to be Junhao.”

Fang Botao opened his mouth to say something but Feng Ping stopped him, “Uncle Fang, you're someone whose received a western education, how can you be so old-fas.h.i.+oned? While earning money is important, it shouldn't take priority over doing what one loves, otherwise what's the point of having all this money?”

“I can't break tradition. If the Fang family takes the lead in breaking tradition, then…”

“Fang Family still has Junyi, maybe she's interested in the hotel?”

“Her?” Fang Botao found Fang Junyi amidst the sea of people and let out a long sigh, “I've spoiled her too much.”

Following his gaze, Feng Ping saw Junyi's pretty face framed by her long curls, her doll-like eyes blinking. She looked very much like her mother. Then she noticed that she was decked out in clothes that were definitely worth several millions, indeed it was much more extravagant than she was at her age. As expected, the new generations always surpa.s.s the old. Hehe.”

Sweeping her gaze over the rest of the venue, she saw groups of older people and groups of younger people as they separated themselves quite clearly. The older groups usually consisted of married couples, those like her and Fang Botao were not many. There were not many people she recognized here. Zhou Xinzhu's male companion actually wasn't Han Yi but another man who was shorter than her by seven or eight centimeters. With them were Wu Nianzhen and Yu Manwen, both of them seemed to be quite anxious as they kept glancing towards Tang Jianan.
