Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Master Sheng… You should stop pretending… We can already see how happy you are! There’s no need to pretend!

As Jian Yiling turned around to look at Zhai Yunsheng, Han Mengyu loosened his foot on Xing Wei’s head. As a result, Xing Wei managed to reveal his head from the water.

“What were you guys talking about?” Jian Yiling asked.

“We were talking about the Goodman family,” Yu Xi replied.

Han Mengyu elaborated on Yu Xi’s response: “In addition, we were talking about the project in the west of Beijing. The Goodman family also plans to participate in that project. Therefore, the Harmony League will potentially have to compete with them. However, if it’s possible, we want to avoid unnecessary conflict by having a discussion with them.”

Han Mengyu was always logical when it came to these things. After all, in business, being amiable helped you in becoming rich. Avoiding potential conflicts was the way to handle things.

However, the Harmony League was not afraid of conflict either.

Han Mengyu: “But I don’t think we will have the opportunity to meet them. After all, they’re the elders of the Goodman family. Unlike Henry Goodman, they hold a powerful position in society. Not everyone can meet them.”

Yu Xi: “Yeah, they’re so different from us. They’re at a level that even we can not reach.”

Xing Wei also agreed with everyone else: “Well, if worst comes to worst, we will just take a step back.”

As soon as he opened his mouth, Jian Yiling turned around to look at him.

Han Mengyu hurriedly pushed Xing Wei back into the water with his foot.

“Glug glug glug…”

“Sister-in-law, just ignore him. He’s practicing holding his breath underwater,” Han Mengyu explained with a smile.

Jian Yiling turned around and said to Zhai Yunsheng: “Well if you want to meet them, I can arrange a meeting for you guys.”

“Huh? God Ling, what did you say?” Yu Xi asked in astonishment.

“I can take you guys to meet them,” Jian Yiling repeated.

“God Ling, do you know the elders of the Goodman family?” Yu Xi hurriedly asked.

Zhai Yunsheng also looked at Jian Yiling curiously.

If Jian Yiling knew them, then all the things that happened before would make sense.

“I don’t know them.”

“Huh?” Yu Xi said. If she didn’t know them, then why was God Ling so certain that she could help them meet up with the elders of the Goodman family.

Han Mengyu: “Sister-in-law, it’s not easy to meet up with them. After all, they hold a powerful position in society. They will probably just ignore us. Furthermore, the incident last time was probably just internal cleaning in the Goodman family.”

“It’s okay, I will take you guys to meet them,” Jian Yiling said with certainty.

Han Mengyu looked at Zhai Yunsheng hestiatently.

Even if this didn’t work out, then it was just a mere trip.

However… Would it be embarrassing for their sister-in-law?

Therefore, it was best for Master Sheng to decide on this matter.

“Let’s go then.”

“But Master Sheng…” Han Mengyu started. He wanted to remind Zhai Yunsheng.

It was best to not make Jian Yiling sad.

“We’re going,” Zhai Yunsheng said with certainty.

Upon hearing this response, Han Mengyu decided to not say anything else.

“Then… When are we going?” Han Mengyu asked cautiously.

If the meeting was in a few days, they could still have some time to prepare.

After all, it wasn’t completely impossible for George Goodman to meet them.

If they thought about it, maybe they would have a chance to contact this elder of the Goodman family. They could convince him in advance to save Jian Yiling from embarrassment.

“Right now,” Jian Yiling replied.

“Huh? Right now?” Han Mengyu repeated before he froze. “Isn’t that… A bit too sudden?”
