Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2350: Chapter 1778: Another Ally Joins

Han He could never have imagined that Bai Xiaosheng actually knew Director Hou! Not only did he know him, but Director Hou also held Bai Xiaosheng in high regard!

His attempt to undermine had backfired...

While others actively sought to meet with Director Hou, Bai Xiaosheng waited for Director Hou to ”come to him”; the difference was immense!

Just seeing this scene explained so much.

Han He wasn’t a fool; he could naturally see that Director Hou’s public conversation with Bai Xiaosheng was telling everyone that he admired Bai Xiaosheng and trusted him even more.

Moreover, Director Hou knew he was invited to help with the speech but didn’t say a word; did this mean he was dissatisfied with Han He?

While participating actively in the development of the Western region, Han Yewanhe indeed snatched markets and went overboard in some aspects.

Was this a hint directed at him?

Until Bai Xiaosheng spoke to him, Han He’s mind was in turmoil.

Under Bai Xiaosheng’s ”awakening”, Han He, snapping out of it, refocused on the young man smiling at him.

This Bai Xiaosheng could discuss such high-level topics with Director Hou and was quite appreciated by him. Could he possibly change the poor impression Director Hou had of him through Bai Xiaosheng...

While Han He was contemplating this, Han Zizhi, who was behind him, seized the opportunity to respond to Bai Xiaosheng, ”There’s no rush to talk now since Director Hou knows, he certainly wouldn’t want any trouble within the visiting group before the trip. So, Mr. Bai, shouldn’t you reconsider your earlier proposal!”

Han Zizhi didn’t have the ability like his father to change his mind in an instant; instead, he believed that although Hou Yuncheng allowed them to communicate independently, it could also put pressure on Bai Xiaosheng.

Moments ago, Director Hou’s appreciation for Bai Xiaosheng indeed surprised Han Zizhi, but afterward, he didn’t think much of it.

After all, leaders focus on matters, not people. Appreciation and criticism always coexist.

Everyone present couldn’t help but look at Han Zizhi, each with their own thoughts reflected in their eyes.

”Oh, there’s no rush right now... In that case, let’s talk later.” Bai Xiaosheng glanced at Han Zizhi and smiled at Han He.

Upon hearing this, Han He’s facial expression changed.

Without him noticing, his son’s careless words put him in a problematic situation.

”No, no, Mr. Bai, let’s talk now, as you suggested! I agree with your solution!” Han He said hurriedly.

”Dad!” Han Zizhi looked at his father in shock.

How could his father agree to Bai Xiaosheng’s demands, which were to their disadvantage and risk losses?

”Shut up!” Han He frowned, turning back and said in a low voice, ”Incapable fool, stop spouting nonsense here! Get back home!”

Han Zizhi was startled and didn’t understand why his father was so angry publicly.

”Go... go back?” Han Zizhi swallowed hard.

Han He urgently whispered again, ”Go to your room, and no dinner tonight!”

Now, Han He truly regretted bringing Han Zizhi along.

This incompetent fool has caused more harm than good. Could he not see that the situation had drastically changed?

Han He now regretted his approach to nurturing Han Zizhi, thinking that guiding him to manage his own business, with himself as the secret promoter, would instill confidence as the start of his business life.

But now it seems, having vision is more important!

And now Han Zizhi lacked even the basic ability to read the situation...

Han He regretted his methods of upbringing.

After all, he only had this one son, and it was his first time being a father, so indulgence and inexperience were inevitable...

Being publicly reprimanded by his father before so many people, Han Zizhi felt utterly humiliated, filled with shame and anger, but stubbornly refused to speak or comply, glaring coldly at Bai Xiaosheng.

”Mr. Bai, please don’t listen to my son’s nonsense, let’s continue our talk!” Han He turned anxiously toward Bai Xiaosheng.

”No, I actually think your son’s barking... words were quite right; it’s indeed inconvenient to talk now.” Bai Xiaosheng decisively refused to continue the conversation with Han He.

”Yes, now that Director Hou is here, and the dinner is about to start, it’s not suitable to discuss private matters.”

”Exactly, soon many leaders will be here, and it wouldn’t be proper for us to be holding a small meeting here.”

”Indeed, having not talked for such a long time, now the opportunity has passed, let’s discuss it later.”

”This fully illustrates that time waits for no one...”

Led by Lu Yun and Jia Chengshan, everyone at the table expressed their opinions, looking at Han He with a mixture of mockery and teasing in their eyes.

Han He realized, ruefully, that he had become isolated here; not only was Bai Xiaosheng highly regarded by Director Hou, but even these top business leaders were in accord with him, proving his incredible connections that Han He previously knew nothing about.

At this moment, Han He’s impression of Bai Xiaosheng underwent a sudden change.

Accidentally seeing Han Zizhi glaring at Bai Xiaosheng, Han He immediately felt a headache, thinking bitterly that his son was truly a troublemaker and he hadn’t realized it before!

Han He wanted to rebuke his son again but felt that repeatedly disciplining him in front of so many business elites of equal status was far too embarrassing.

As everyone chattered away, Han He quickly said to Han Zizhi, ”Bite your tongue!”
