The Long-awaited Mr Han

Wei Zhiqian: "However, you still haven't told our grandmother about your proposal to Zhiqing, right?"

It was currently early in the morning, and Wei Wucai wasn't like Han Zhuofeng, who so happened to be staying at the family home yesterday.

Furthermore, Wei Wucai had proposed on the road, so even if he were staying at the family home, he wouldn't have had a chance to speak about it.

As such, Wei Zhiqian still had a glimmer of hope.

He was hoping that their grandmother still didn't know that even Wei Wucai wanted to get married as well.

This way, the psychological blow she would deal to him wouldn't be that severe.

Unfortunately, he was destined for disappointment.

Wei Wucai said, "I already informed the family when I was on the way to the set earlier. Both Grandmother and my mother already know about it."

Wei Zhiqian was speechless. "…"

'Why does your mouth move so quickly?!'

Wei Zhiqian: "I'm going on a trip. I'm leaving today. Don't miss me, brothers."

After saying that, he called his assistant on the phone, "Didn't you say before that the Europe side needed someone to take a trip there? I'll go there personally. Book my flights now. I'll leave today. Get me the earliest flight out."

Mu Chengfeng was dumbfounded.

What triggered him this time?!

And it was so early in the morning, too…

He clearly said previously that it wasn't necessary for him to go to Europe personally.

He even asked about what was the difference between employing them and employing useless people if they were unable to resolve such a small issue and even needed him to go over there personally?

However, the decision was made in the blink of an eye, and Wei Zhiqian now wanted to go there personally.

In his mind, Mu Chengfeng criticized Wei Zhiqian furiously, but he still booked two flights at once.

They were for him and Wei Zhiqian.

Wei Zhiqian definitely wanted to leave without delay before his grandmother sought him out.

***

Xie Jiling was initially sleeping soundly, but the phone she had laced beside her pillow suddenly rang incessantly.

It was a habit of hers to place her phone beside her pillow.

This way, she would be able to find her phone just by reaching to the side of her pillow when she wanted to look at the time.

However, her phone was too close to her this time.

The beeping sound of WeChat's notifications that poured into her ears very clearly was truly too much for her to bear.

Still groggy, Xie Jiling felt around and found her phone with closed eyes.

Then, she finally opened her eyes just a slit to look at it.

It was truly too difficult for her. Right now, she was so tired that she could not open her eyes at all.

Although her eyelids did lift up a little, her eyes weren't able to focus. She was unable to see the phone screen clearly even after quite a while.

Xie Jiling rubbed her eyes helplessly, and with great difficulty, she managed to regain the ability to focus somewhat.

She looked at her phone again and found that it was only 7 a.m.

Despite that, her phone was still beeping incessantly.

So Xie Jiling had no choice but to unlock her phone screen. She then saw that the upper right corner of WeChat's icon showed the number of notifications had reached '99+'.

"…" Xie Jiling opened WeChat, and bafflingly, she found that she had an additional chat group.

It was precisely this group that seemed to be running wild with new messages.

It was the reason why her phone was ringing incessantly.

However, Xie Jiling didn't really care about it.

That was because she noticed Han Zhuofeng had also sent her a message.

She remembered the message she had sent him in the middle of the night, and now, she saw his reply.

She knew he definitely wouldn't reject her…

But she was still curious about what his reply would be.

Xie Jiling felt a bit nervous even before opening her chat with him.

Xie Jiling clicked on the chat with Han Zhuofeng.

It was only after seeing his message that she knew that she had been pulled into a new group.

Xie Jiling didn't rush to look at the group chat and replied to Han Zhuofeng first, "I was woken up by the notifications from the group you pulled me into."

It was very obvious from Xie Jiling's message that she was unhappy.

Han Zhuofeng finally had the opportunity to do something when he saw Xie Jiling's message.

After all, everyone in the group was still congratulating him.

Han Zhuofeng hurriedly seized the opportunity to say, "Brothers, the sounds of your chat woke my girlfriend up."

Everyone: "…"

They could all tell that Han Zhuofeng was just taking the chance to flaunt the word 'girlfriend.'

Who among them hadn't been in a relationship before?!

Was he the only one with a girlfriend?

What was he showing off for?!

Meanwhile, Xie Jiling couldn't go back to sleep, so she rubbed her eyes again.

She entered the group chat with the intention of greeting everyone.

But she ended up seeing what Han Zhuofeng said.

Xie Jiling felt speechless.

Would what he said make the others think that she was overly demanding?

At this time, Xie Jiling propped herself up into a sitting position and placed her pillow in a vertical position behind her.

It was still early, and she wasn't in a rush, so she leaned against the pillow and read through the group chat.

Upon seeing the names of the group members, Xie Jiling had some suspicions about what was going on.

It appeared that this was the internal group of the eight great families.

Han Zhuofeng pulled her in here…

The questions she had just a moment ago were answered by Han Zhuofeng's messages.

"I pulled you into our—the eight great families'—group. They're all my brothers, and we all have a tacit understanding within the group. It's that when we fall in love and are certain we've found our other half, the person we want to marry, we pull them into the group and introduce them to everyone.

"In other words, this group is the household group for the younger generation of our families," Han Zhuofeng said.

Xie Jiling thought about how the two of them had just confessed to each other, so today was the first day of their relationship.

Yet Han Zhuofeng was already certain that he wanted to marry her…?

"You don't need to be nervous. They're all my brothers and sisters-in-law," Han Zhuofeng said.

Xie Jiling hurriedly greeted everyone in the group chat.

"Hello, brothers and sisters; I'm Xie Jiling," Xie Jiling said.

What a well-mannered young lady…

Yan Zhiqing immediately spoke up, "Call us 'Sisters-in-law'."

Xie Jiling was speechless.

Her face turned red, and she couldn't bring herself to address them as such.

Although she had already confirmed her mutual feelings with Han Zhuofeng…

It had been done through WeChat.

Then early in the morning, Han Zhuofeng left for the set.

They hadn't even met face-to-face since confessing their feelings for each other.

So, the fact had yet to properly sink in for Xie Jiling even until now.

At this moment, Han Zhuofeng sent out a message: "My girlfriend is shy."

Everyone: "…"

Han Zhuoli couldn't help but feel annoyed by Han Zhuofeng. "Didn't you head to the set early in the morning to film? Why are you always here?"

"I'm in the middle of filming. I just finished two scenes. Right now, the actors are studying their scripts. We'll film the next scene in a while," Han Zhuofeng said.

"Eh? Brother Qianzi isn't here?" Han Zhuofeng was very regretful.

Being unable to make public displays of affection in Wei Zhiqian's presence made Han Zhuofeng feel like his relationship was a little less sweet.

Wei Wucai: "He said he was going on a trip. He should be on the way to the airport right now."

Han Zhuofeng was stunned. "Is it that urgent?"

Wei Wucai: "Precisely. Would he be that quick to run away if he had a girlfriend? And would our grandmother have to whip him with a chicken feather duster all day long?"

Xie Jiling had no idea that Wei Zhiqian was that pitiful.

Han Zhuofeng was very unwilling to give up, so he opened up his private chat with Wei Zhiqian. "Brother Qianzi, Brother Qianzi. Have you boarded the plane yet?"

Wei Zhiqian: "…I'm on the way to the airport."

This rascal! To think that he would actually private message him!

Wasn't it just about how he had gotten a girlfriend?

Han Zhuofeng was too much!

Han Zhuofeng: "Since you haven't boarded the plane yet, that means you can still go on the internet. So why aren't you appearing in the group chat? My girlfriend has appeared in the chat."
