Chapter 476 - DINNER WITH TANG MEIS FAMILY (1/2)
He gazed at Tang Mei's father and said, ”We thought it would be good for the company and our children. However, it looks like we, parents, made a mistake. Nowadays, we need their permission if we want to do something for them. If my children can't be happy, what will I do with the company and wealth? What do you think, Mr. Tang?”
Tang Mei's father cleared his throat and said, ”I feel the same way. I thought my uncle could make my unruly daughter settle down, but it's unfortunate that she couldn't have a husband as good as Sheng Ming.”
”I don't need a coward,” Tang Mei mumbled.
Han Sheng Ming threw a glare at her. He was scared of her, it's true. Nonetheless, he didn't approve of the fact that she was actually insulting him in front of his cute little sister and beloved girlfriend. He also had self esteem!
”Then it's settled, right? The only thing that is left is to persuade grandpa Tang. I'm sure he will make a wise decision,” Han Luo quickly said.
She didn't want others to start a fight over Tang Mei's comment. Especially Han Sheng Ming. They needed the Tang Family's support to successfully annul this engagement.

A person was sitting on a couch. The room was dark. There was a lamp not so far away but the light didn't reach him. He gave out a mysterious aura.
Steam emitted from the cup he was holding. It seemed like he was waiting for something or someone. The serenity of the room was interrupted when someone knocked on its door.
Knock! Knock!
The door was opened after a series of rhythmic knocks. A tall man came inside. ”Sir, we have found what you asked us to look for.”
The man sitting on the couch finally raised his head. Before he could reach out his hand, the person handed over the documents he brought in with him.
The man in the dark opened the file and held it close to the lamp. He saw the picture in the right upper corner of the page and hummed, ”Yes, that's her. I didn't make a mistake. She has grown a lot but still has the same features as before.”
”Should we proceed as we planned?” the tall man asked in a polite tone.
”Yes. Be cautious. There are unwanted bugs around her,” the man in the dark mentioned.
”Yes, Sir.” The tall man bowed and left the room before closing the door behind him, plunging the room into complete silence once again.
The man in the dark brushed his finger over the picture. He mumbled, ”I was looking for you for a long time.”

It had been a week since Han Sheng Ming and others had dinner with the Tang Family members. Tonight, he went to a business party along with Han Luo, Mo Yuan, and Tang Yujin.
”I'm not sure what I'm feeling,” Han Sheng Ming nervously loosened his tie. He was supposed to meet Elder Tang today.
