Hao Ren and Han Lingshi fell asleep talking to each other and unknowingly, the latter even found warmth in the embrace of strong arms. In the morning, Hao Ren woke up because of his bio-clock. He found that Han Lingshi was laying in his arms and a faint smile surfaced on his face. He could not help but gently blow away a the loose hair falling over her visage. His small action disturbed Han Lingshi, the lady slowly opened her eyes and Hao Ren hurriedly let go of her to sit up. He pretended to be unaware and stood up from the bed to go to the washroom. Han Lingshi watched his back and closed her eyes again with a smile. She had gotten up before him because her bio-clock had yet to adjust to the time difference, but when she sensed his warmth and calm, she decided to lay their for a bit longer. She wanted to sleep in when she realized that her mother-in-law was in the house too. She hurriedly sat up from her position and then sorted her hair in the apparel room before she moved out of the room and came to the living room, she found Mrs. Hao sitting on the couch listless. Han Lingshi greeted, Mrs. Hao with a smile, "Good morning, Aunty." Mrs. Hao smiled and greeted her, and said, "I used to wonder what would city folks do in the morning, turns out the place is quite boring." Han Lingshi smiled and said, "Aunty, you only came here last night, so you do not know but this house is good, and you will not feel bored once you have learned how to use it." Then she patiently taught the old lady how to use the smart features of the house. Mrs. Hao was surprised and at the same time very enthusiastic when she discovered all these things. Under the guidance of Han Lingshi, the old lady learned how to turn on the television and the news channel was put on. "This is coming fresh from the Glitter Scent county, last night the authorities took action and they apprehended the infamous local gang leader. The police took an action and moved in decisively, however, the goons attacked the police officers, and severely injured two officers. It has been reported that the police officers shot down three people from the gang before the gang leader decided to surrender. The officers quickly conducted a preliminary interrogation and found that this local gang is linked to the Ye Family of the jade capital. I would like to remind you all that the Ye Family I mentioned is the same family that controls the Crown International and many other businesses." Han Lingshi raised her brows, and just when she was thinking about it, a calm voice sounded behind them, "I did not expect it to be this quick." Mrs. Hao asked, "What are you talking about?" Hao Ren smiled and said, "Nothing, I have ordered the flour and other things you need, they will be coming up soon. I have a meeting lined up, so I will leave after having breakfast." Mrs. Hao nodded and said, "You have a house and a car, you have a company too, when are you going to talk to Lingshi's parents?" The sudden question was akin to a nuclear blast in the apartment and everyone suddenly fell silent. Han Lingshi was even more anxious than Hao Ren. She did not know what the guy would say. Hao Ren looked at his mother, took a deep breath and said, "Actually, I have something to tell you, but the situation is a bit complicated. I hope you don't tell anyone else." Han Lingshi turned pale, she did not expect this from Hao Ren, she knew what he was going to do. She was not prepared, and Hao Ren walked around the couch. He sat down beside Han Lingshi, and held her hand. He could feel that her body was cold. Hao Ren looked at his mother and said, "Mom, actually, Lingshi's family is a bit troublesome. It will take some time for me to rise to their standard. So, we are waiting." Mrs. Hao looked at Han Lingshi and after a few minutes, she said, "It is good that you are so concerned about this issue, however, do not slack off, and cherish her." Hao Ren nodded and then the old lady stood up. She went to the kitchen to cook noodles for him, while he held onto Han Lingshi's hand firmly. He looked at her while she looked at him in a daze. She did not expect him to handle this situation so subtly. Old Master Han snorted and said, "I am sure this is a conspiracy against my Han family." Han Lingshi cleared her throat and said, "You are right grand father, all this is a conspiracy against us, and I even know the person responsible for this." Everyone looked at her and she said, "Grandpa, whether you agree to it or not, but Second Uncle has never taken the spirit of family seriously. You know that even if you defy it, the truth won't change. If someone is responsible for his present condition, that's himself." Old Master Han yelled, "Nonsense! How dare you speak in the family matters?" Han Lingshi did not budge and replied calmly, "I have the right to handle the everything in the Empress International, but I cannot speak inside the house? Fine, I will walk out and I will leave the company to you as well, then handle it on your own." Old Master Han asked, "Han Lingshi are you rebelling against us?" The lady shook her head and said, "You might think that you are the king of the Province, but ever since the day Han Yuntian placed a bounty on my head, I stopped considering them my family." Everyone was shocked, and Gao Yue asked, "Lingshi, what do you mean?" Han Lingshi snorted at the old man and said, "Didn't he tell you grandma? That Han Yuntian, whom he wanted to succeed and take over the Empress International, paid seventy million dollars for my head and contracted a group of killers to handle me. Thankfully, those people died in a fire." BOOM! Han Lingshi was having a showdown and then she put down the facts and the evidence before everyone. Old Master Han was cornered, Gao Yue looked at her husband and said, "Old man, do you really think a dog will turn his tail? The only good thing that guy has ever done was to marry Xia Ping. How dare you argue his case? How dare you?" Han Lingshi came behind her grandma and patted her back gently as she said, "Grandma, forget it, its in the past, but now I want to tell everyone that the police have raided a few places since the morning and they have found many illegal activities that were spear headed by Second Uncle. I have called a few people and they have agreed to keep it low-key. Otherwise, do you know how much loss we will all incur? Empress International will become the next Crown International and Ye family." ... Han Lingshi put down the gauntlet, after an hour, she and Han Lingxue came out of the house and got in the car. The two of them left the house calmly, but a few minutes later, they both erupted in laughter. They were happy to have over taken the family business and dealt with their enemy too. Han Lingxue suddenly asked, "Sister, what gift shall I buy to thank Brother-in-law?" Han Lingshi said, "It is his birthday today, I was thinking to throw him a small party." ... Hao Ren was standing before a music instrument shop. He entered the place and thought, 'System are you sure I won't make a fool of myself.' *Ding: Host, do you think the system will reward you with skills that will make you look like a fool?*
