My Beloved

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.

Elder Tang was always busy with his passion and side business. He hardly stayed in London. Since he was supposed to be here, they decided to talk to him today.

"You can do this, big brother Ming. We are with you. We all want to see you get married to Mian," Han Luo encouraged him.

'I should have worn a diaper,' Han Sheng Ming thought. He didn't want to lose face in front of his cousin.

"I see grandfather talking to the President of X Corporation," Tang Yujin mentioned as he gestured them to look at a certain corner of the party venue.

Han Sheng Ming took a deep breath and strode in the direction of the corner where Elder Tang was standing.

Elder Tang saw him and gave him a pleasant smile. "I see you are here. A hardworking man is what we need," he said.

Han Sheng Ming respectfully bowed. "Good evening, grandfather. I hope you are doing well." His voice was surprisingly mild.

"We have promising children like you to take care of us in the future. I'm most certainly doing well," Elder Tang replied.

The more he was in a good mood, the more Han Sheng Ming got nervous. He closed his eyes and recalled Zheng Mian's smiling face and affectionate gaze. He clenched his teeth and gathered some courage. "Grandfather, I have something important I would like to talk to you about. Can we go into a room so that we can have a private chat?"

Elder Tang gave him a skeptical glance and agreed, "Sure."

Han Luo saw them going inside the building. She leaned her head against Mo Yuan's arm and muttered, "I'm so worried."

"Weren't you encouraging him a while ago?" Mo Yuan circled his arm around her waist.

Han Luo answered, "I did so, hoping big brother Ming can gather some courage. He is usually so strong and headstrong. I don't understand why he fears Tang Mei and grandpa Tang."

Mo Yuan commented, "Maybe something happened in the past. You don't have to worry about him. He can manage on his own."

"We are so lucky that we didn't have to go through this." Han Luo looked at him and smiled.

Mo Yuan stared at her pearl-like eyes. He smiled as well. "You are right." He knew the look in her eyes. She wanted to be kissed. He smirked and said, "Ah Luo, if you want something, you have to say it or I won't know."

The smile from Han Luo's face disappeared. She knew what his eyes were saying  - it's payback time. She looked away and moved away from him. Her lips were pursed. She seemed upset.

When Mo Yuan realized that she wouldn't say like he did that night, he affectionately pulled her closer and planted a sweet kiss on her lips. 'In the end, I'm the one who has to give in, aren't I?' he thought.

He pressed his lips against her head and said, "Ah Luo, let's get married after we take over the companies."
