Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

But I promise that I will work hard when I get back in the afternoon, and even if I have to work overtime at night, I will complete the tasks you assign!"

Hearing this, Manager Li looked up at Guan Juer. Seeing her cautious look, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Why are you so scared? Can I still eat you?"

Hearing the manager say this, Guan Juer became even more nervous and hurriedly explained: "No, Manager, I didn't mean that!"

"Alright, alright, let's go eat. You've been busy these past two days, so take a good rest. You don't have to work overtime tonight, so spend some time with your parents."

As for the document I asked you to translate, you don't have to worry, just give it to me before noon tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you, manager!"

Guan Juer nodded happily, then bowed and said goodbye, returned to her workstation, packed up and left.

Until she walked out of the company gate, she couldn't believe it was true. It turned out that what Brother Han said before was right. The manager didn't dislike her, nor did he dislike her.

Seeing her come out, Yang Dongxu greeted her with a smile: "Miss Guan!"

Guan Juer saw Han Tao's car waiting at the door, and Yang Dongxu was also standing there waiting. She smiled and nodded.

"Thank you, Brother Yang. You've worked so hard and made such a special trip."

"You're welcome. This is what we should do. Come on in the car."

Yang Dongxu helped Guan Juer open the car door. After she got in, he returned to the driver's seat and started the car while continuing, "The boss was tied up with some work, so let me apologize to you on his behalf."

"It's okay. It's me who troubled Brother Han too much. He doesn't need to say sorry."

Guan Juer quickly shook her head, then showed the location on her phone to Yang Dongxu, who entered the address into the navigation and set off.

………………

Forty minutes later, Han Tao's car slowly stopped at the restaurant entrance. Yang Dongxu opened the door and said:

"Miss Guan, please go in. I'll be waiting for you here. Call me anytime if you need anything."

Guan Juer was stunned for a moment and said, "Brother Yang, how can I let you wait here? Why don't you come with me to the restaurant and wait? It's already noon, so you should eat something."

"Thank you, Miss Guan. Please go in quickly and don't worry your parents. I'll just wait here."

"Well... well, thank you for your hard work, Brother Yang. I'll go in first."

Guan Juer bowed politely, then packed her backpack and walked into the restaurant.

Guan Juer's mother was waiting in the hall. When she saw her daughter come in, she hurriedly pulled her upstairs and said, "Guan Guan, you're finally here. What's the matter? Why are you here so late?"

"I rushed here as soon as I left the company. There was a bit of traffic on the road at this time, so I'm late. Where's Dad?"

"He's waiting inside, let's go in quickly!"

Guan Juer's mother took her into a private room. Besides her father, there were three other people inside: a boy with glasses and his parents.

Guan Juer immediately understood that her guess was correct. Her mother came this time to arrange a blind date without telling her.

At this time, Guan Juer was glad that Han Tao had something urgent to do and did not come with her directly, otherwise her parents would be embarrassed. This way, there was still room for maneuver.

While she was thinking about it, her mother started to introduce:

"Guan Guan is so dedicated to his work that he refuses to leave before the appointed time. There was a bit of a traffic jam on the way, so he arrived a little late!"

The middle-aged woman sitting opposite took one look at the well-behaved Guan Juer, nodded with satisfaction, and said politely, "It's okay. Young people, work is important. Our Haohao is the same. Once he gets to work, he forgets to eat and sleep. The company leaders all like him very much."

"You can tell he's a good, down-to-earth kid!"

She glanced at the boy opposite, and saw that he was indeed behaving very honestly. He kept his head down and said nothing, but only answered every question asked. This made Guan Juer's mother quite satisfied.

Most of the blind date candidates she chose for her daughter were of equal status, and the boys had to be outstanding and come from a wealthy family.

This is what she and Guan Juer's father value more. In their view, family conditions are an important criterion for choosing a spouse, and the marriage of children is also a matter for both families.

They never wanted to marry above their station, but asking their daughter to help alleviate poverty was absolutely unacceptable. A match made in heaven would be the best.

Thinking that such a boy would be the most suitable for her daughter, Guan Juer's mother pulled her daughter to sit opposite and introduced her with a smile:

"Guan Guan in our family is just like this. She is honest and quiet. We old couple have to take care of everything. But she has a good personality. The neighbors all like her. She is gentle, virtuous, and very considerate."

Hearing this, the middle-aged woman opposite also introduced her son, saying, "Our son Haohao is very sensible. He has never given me any worries since he was a child. This school was reported to us. His university is a 211 project, and he now works for a foreign company. I think these two children will definitely have something in common."

After that, she pulled her son and ordered, "Haohao, say hello to Guanguan and introduce yourself!"

In the eyes of Zhang Wenhao's parents, Guan Juer is indeed a good choice for their son to marry. Not only does she have a good family background, but she also has a good family background.

The most important thing is that I know her inside and out. Her parents are loving and Guan Juer seems to be an obedient child. She grew up in such a harmonious and friendly family atmosphere.

Children raised in such families are very well-educated. For example, Guan Juer's mother accidentally mentioned some details when chatting with her.

It turned out that Guan Juer was once in the hospital with her grandmother. When she was hungry and ate biscuits, she would dissolve the biscuits in her mouth before chewing them, for fear that the noise of eating would be too loud and disturb the rest of the people in the hospital.

Hearing his mother's instructions, Zhang Wenhao raised his head, looked at Guan Juer across from him, and introduced himself: "Hello, I'm Zhang Wenhao!"

"I am Guan Juer!"

Guan Juer nodded politely. Seeing that the other party seemed a little restless, she hesitated for a moment and asked him if he could speak English. Seeing him nod, she said in English that she didn't know anything about the blind date.

Zhang Wenhao nodded in agreement after hearing Guan Juer's words. "I didn't know they were here for a blind date. I didn't like it either. They just said they were here for dinner. I thought only my parents were here."

Seeing him say that, Guan Juer said with joy: "I'm relieved that you don't like blind dates either. In fact, I already have someone I like. We need to do something to stop this blind date."

Zhang Wenhao agreed: "You are right, but what should we do now?"

"I think we should just tell our parents that we both have someone we like. I think they will understand us. After all, they are worried about us not having a partner. Knowing that we have someone we like, they won't force us."

"OK!" Zhang Wenhao nodded and reached an alliance with Guan Juer.

When the parents of both families heard the "OK", they thought what the two people said was very good and thought that they had a lot of common topics. They were immediately very happy.

After chatting for a while, Zhang Wenhao, who had already reached a consensus with Guan Juer, took the lead and leaned close to his mother's ear and whispered a few words.

Hearing her son's words, Zhang's mother's expression changed slightly. She then looked at Guan Juer's mother and said a little embarrassedly:

"Ah Min, since they're talking so well, let them get along on their own. As for how far the relationship will develop, we as parents should respect our children's choices. What do you think?"

Seeing the other party's behavior, Guan Juer's mother looked at her husband with some doubts, but since the other party was an old colleague, it was difficult to say anything, so she nodded and said:

"Yes, the children are grown up, let them get along with each other, let's eat first!"

After saying that, she called the waiter to order food, and Guan Juer took her mother to the bathroom.

Chapter 437 Final Negotiations on the Infringement Case

In the restaurant's restroom, Guan Juer's mother had already noticed that her daughter's attitude was problematic, and she figured out what was going on, so she asked in a dissatisfied tone:

"Guan Guan, what are you two babble about? You were chatting happily just now, why did Hao Hao's mother change her tone after she said a few words?

Don't play it safe. We've been colleagues for many years and we know each other well. She wouldn't change her attitude for no reason."

Hearing this, Guan Juer adjusted her glasses, pouted, and said unhappily, "Mom, this has nothing to do with Zhang Wenhao. It was my idea. We both have someone we like, so don't worry about it."

Besides, how could you arrange a blind date without my consent? You're introducing me to a boyfriend, so you should ask me what I think, right? Now you suddenly call me over and arrange it without my consent. What's the point of that?"

"What's wrong with a blind date? Mom certainly didn't get your consent, but this is the most important thing right now. Otherwise, how would you have time to find a boyfriend if you were working overtime every day?

You said you were all alone in Shanghai, with no one to ask about your well-being. And when you got off work late at night, no one would pick you up. How could your father and I be at ease?

At this point, Guan Juer's mother suddenly thought of something, looked at her and asked, "No, you silly girl, are you hiding something from us?

You just said you have someone you like. Is it the neighbor who picked you up that night? Tell mom the truth, how far have you and him progressed?

"Mom, I'm not a child anymore. I have my own ideas. Don't worry about me!" After saying that, Guan Juer turned around and turned on the faucet to wash her hands.

When Guan's mother saw that her daughter did not directly answer her question, she said angrily: "Guan Guan, you have never been in love, so you don't understand many things!

The neighbor you mentioned is so well-off. Mom is afraid that you won't be able to control him after you get together with him. You are a simple child and easily deceived. Don't be fooled by others without knowing it."

"Mom, Brother Han isn't the kind of person you say he is. Don't always think so badly of others. Besides, Brother Han is a really good person. He's been very helpful to us on the 22nd floor. He even sent his driver to bring me here this afternoon."

Seeing her daughter's eyes light up when she mentioned the other party, Guan Juer's mother rolled her eyes at her, took her hand, and asked worriedly:

"Guan Guan, tell mom the truth. How far have you and Han Tao gotten? Also, has he ever bullied you?"

Hearing her mother's words, Guan Juer shook her head repeatedly, her face flushed, and said, "Mom, what are you talking about? How could Brother Han bully me? We haven't even confirmed our relationship yet!"

"Really, doesn't that mean you like him?"

Guan Juer's mother gave her daughter a serious look, then asked worriedly, "Why are you saying you haven't confirmed your relationship yet? If he hasn't bullied you, then why are you blushing?"

"I...I just like Brother Han, but I never told him...Oh, don't worry about it. Just don't arrange blind dates for me anymore."

"You're going to piss me off to death! How could I have such a useless daughter like you? But it's okay this way. I'll go meet your brother Han later. Mom can help you check it out. If he's not suitable, you'd better give up this idea as soon as possible."

Guan Juer's mother breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that her daughter had not been taken advantage of, so she felt much more at ease, and planned to talk to Han Tao while nothing happened between them.

Before Guan Juer could respond, the voice of Guan's father rang out from behind the two of them:

"Look, what did I say? My daughter has grown up. She has her own ideas and thoughts. Don't worry about her."

"You're going to die. You make every sound when you walk, and you even eavesdrop on our conversations!"

Hearing her husband's voice, Guan Juer's mother turned around and hit him, complaining.

But before he could respond, she continued, "Guan Guan is my daughter. She will still be my daughter when she grows up. If I do nothing like you, what if she gets cheated by another man?"

"Our daughter is not stupid, and she is old enough to have her own judgment. Don't always make decisions for her.

Besides, the embryo will eventually fly away. Can you protect her forever? After all, it is a personal matter. We must respect the child. It is good for her growth if she experiences more things..."

Hearing her husband's rebuttal, Guan Juer's mother angrily interrupted him: "Stop, stop, stop right there. You are the only one who is good and you are the only one who pampers her, right?"

"Okay, okay, I'll stop, I'll stop, you can say whatever you want!"

Guan's father shook his head and muttered quietly while washing his hands, "You're still so anxious. You haven't even met the boy yet, so how do you know he's unreliable?"

"What are you mumbling about? Don't think I didn't hear you."

Guan Juer's mother rolled her eyes at her husband and said unhappily, "What's wrong with me not having seen it? I just know that a boy of his stature would have a lot of girls around him. How could Guan Guan be his match?"

And I don't even know the other person's family situation, how can that work? Family background is very important in a relationship, and she herself has no experience, so can't I help her check it out? "

"Okay, you're right. Let's talk about this later. Let's go back and eat. Otherwise, it would be rude. After all, we are old colleagues."

"Oh, I almost forgot. It's all your fault, father and daughter, and you for not reminding me earlier. Don't wash anymore, go back!"

"Is this my fault? It's you who's been nagging me non-stop..."

"Stop talking nonsense. I think you want to rebel. I'll save your face outside. We'll talk about it when we get back!"

Looking at her bickering parents, Guan Juer, who was walking back behind them, smiled. Her father always tried to resist, but he never won against her mother.

Seeing her daughter following behind to watch the fun, Guan Juer's mother couldn't help but turn around and say, "You two are teaming up to piss me off. I'm just being self-indulgent, okay?"

Seeing her mother angry, Guan Juer quickly grabbed her phone and acted coquettishly: "Mom, don't worry, I really didn't mean that. I was wrong, I won't argue with you anymore!"

"Guan Guan, if you really don't want to go on a blind date, Mom won't force you. Now that you say you have someone you like, Mom is so happy. But Mom wants to tell you the truth, that is, you must not act so foolishly!

You must keep your eyes open when looking for a boyfriend. The world out there is so colorful and dazzling, and I must help you look for the best one.

Your father and I have no other requests. You must find a good man to marry, just like your mother. She found a good man like your father and is so happy now, don’t you think? "

After saying that, Guan Juer's mother tapped her forehead with her finger, looking like she was not going to listen.

Guan Juer could only nod and smile, "Yes, mom has the best taste!"

"Since you know that mom has high standards, what about you?"

"I know, Mom, I should learn from you!"

"So that's how you learned it? Is that how you piss off your mother?"

Seeing his wife trying to trick their daughter again, Guan's father quickly chimed in and changed the subject, saying, "Let's not talk about this for now. Let Lao Zhang and the others hear it for a few days. Now go in!"

After saying that, he took the initiative to push open the door of the box and walked in with a smile on his face. Guan Juer and her mother also followed with a smile.

At the same time, in the meeting room of the legal department of Jingyan Group, Han Tao walked in with Chen Ran, Wendy, Fan Jingang and others to start the final negotiations with Hongyuan Group.

This lawsuit has been dragging on for a long time, and the two sides have had many conflicts. For this reason, Han Tao even made a special trip to Handong and almost caused a rift with his senior brother.

Therefore, this negotiation is of great importance and there are only two outcomes. One is that Hongyuan compromises and accepts Han Tao's conditions. The other is that the court will open and both sides will show their skills to see who can come out on top.

Chapter 438: Successfully Taking Over Hongyuan Group

In the meeting room of the legal department of Jingyan Group, the greetings had already been exchanged, and there had been some negotiations and confrontation.
