1751 Happy For Nothing
It was because they all knew that Old Madam He was thinking about the He family’s reputation and not just speaking up for Xu Zhiqin.
Lin Xiruo smiled and said, “Fortunately, Zhiqin was smart and left behind evidence. She also knew how to protect herself, so she didn’t make a big mistake. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t have known how to end the business banquet last night.”
“We really have to manage the Bai family well!” Old Madam He said!
“The police will handle this matter. Mom, don’t be angry,” Lin Xiruo persuaded.
Old Madam He asked again, “And that Wei Yuxin! I dote on her so much, but she actually did such a thing!”
He Xuyan said calmly, “I suggest cutting off our cooperation with the Wei family!”
Old Madam He pondered. “This cooperation isn’t so easy to break. Our two families have been friends for many years, and many of our careers are tied together. It’ll take a lot of effort to undo our ties, and it might hurt us.”
“So what if we get hurt?” He Xuyan said calmly.
“Many things aren’t easy to repair if the damage is done!” Old Madam He sighed. “Your father and grandfather have worked hard all these years. How can we give them so much trouble?”
He Xuyan put down his teacup and tidied his clothes. He said calmly, “Grandma, give me another three years. Three years later, I’ll come back and take over the family business!”
“Really?” Old Madam He was especially surprised. “Old man, come and listen to what your grandson is saying! Did I hear wrongly?!”
It wasn’t only her as even He Jiang and Lin Xiruo were especially surprised. Xu Zhiqin also looked at him deeply.
He Xuyan had already thought it through. Being a director was indeed his lifelong pursuit.
However, he had already done his job very well. The few movies he filmed had good reputations and received a flood of good reviews.
If he wanted to better protect the people around him—his mother, sister, and the woman he loved—he needed more power.
What happened last night had deeply impacted him.
He Consortium was managed by his grandfather and father, so he couldn’t cut ties with the Wei family as that would cause trouble for his grandfather and father.
But if he was in charge of everything… why would he need to worry so much?
“Really?” Xu Zhiqin asked softly.
“Yes, I’ve almost finished filming the themes I want to shoot. There’ll be enough time to deal with the family business in the future. If there’s anything I want to shoot in the future, I can just slack off.” He Xuyan smiled and reached out to hold her hand.
Old Master He chided, “Look at you! That’s not what you said in the past! Now, you’ve changed for a woman!”
He was so angry that his beard was sticking out, but he sounded really happy.
“I want to protect the people I care about better. Grandpa and Grandma, you’re also the people I care about,” He Xuyan said calmly.
It was rare to hear him say such nice words. Old Master He’s expression relaxed.
Old Madam He also smiled and sighed. “You’ve finally grown up. We don’t have to worry so much now!”
“But I’m talking about three years later, not now.” He Xuyan was really afraid that they would think too much and be happy for nothing.
“Then what are you going to do for the next three years?” Old Madam He didn’t ask for more, but she was still a little curious.
He Xuyan tilted his head and glanced at Xu Zhiqin. He smiled and said, “I’ll do my own things.”
He would film another movie and accompany Xu Zhiqin.
