Chapter 435: High Emotional Intelligence Goddess

~7 min read 1,358 words

Paul's Chinese was indeed very good. If one closed their eyes and listened, one couldn't tell at all that it was an American speaking. Ye Chen was also very surprised, so while shaking hands with him, he didn't stint on his praise: "Mr. Paul's Chinese is truly impeccable."

Paul smiled modestly and said: "Mr. Ye, you are too kind!"

Xiao Changkun, who was on the side, hurriedly said: "By the way, Meiqing, I've booked a private room at the Bai Jinhangong Hotel. Let's go over there to have a meal and welcome you and your son!"

Han Meiqing smiled beautifully and said: "Thank you so much to both of you, father-in-law and son-in-law, for coming all this way to pick us up and also treating us to a meal..."

"It's only right, it's only right!" Xiao Changkun smiled awkwardly and said impatiently: "It just so happens we drove here. Let's go directly!"

"Okay." Han Meiqing nodded, then said to Paul: "Son, tell your driver. We won't take the company car; we'll take your Uncle Xiao's car."

Paul smiled and said: "Okay, Mom. I'll give the driver a call and have him take all the luggage to the hotel room first."

"Okay!"

Paul politely said to Xiao Changkun and Ye Chen: "Uncle Xiao, Ye Chen, please wait for me for a moment. I'll make a call. Excuse me!"

Xiao Changkun hurriedly said: "Oh my, Paul, look at you, you're too polite. You don't need to be so formal with your uncle."

Paul smiled and said: "It's only right, it's only right."

After finishing, he took out his phone and walked to the side to make the call.

Only then did Xiao Changkun curiously ask Han Meiqing: "Meiqing, you and your son are returning to the country, and you even arranged for a driver here?"

Han Meiqing nodded and said: "After Paul's father passed away, I had always wanted to return to the country to settle down, but his father left behind a company. Paul said he couldn't throw away his father's life's work, so half a year ago, he began to gradually transfer the business to the country."

Xiao Changkun asked in surprise: "You transferred all the industries to the country first?"

"Yes." Han Meiqing said: "But I don't participate much in these things; Paul is handling it all."

Xiao Changkun nodded gently, and couldn't help but feel a bit of inferiority in his heart.

Han Meiqing and her son were returning to the country to settle down, and they even transferred their enterprise over. An enterprise that required such a big effort to move probably wasn't small in scale. Looking at it this way, Han Meiqing's current economic strength was very solid.

In comparison, he felt somewhat ashamed. After all, the Xiao family had already fallen, and he had no source of income. He could even be described as penniless. The only thing he could show off was the villa at Tang Chen Yi Pin, but that villa was Ye Chen's.

Thinking of this, Xiao Changkun felt somewhat troubled.

With his current situation, would Han Meiqing look down on him?

Having lived for half a lifetime, the vast majority of middle-aged people at least had a certain career, industry, and family business, but he had nothing now. This was too embarrassing!

Ye Chen also saw that his father-in-law's expression was somewhat troubled, knowing that he must feel that Han Meiqing was too good and that he wasn't worthy of her, but he didn't point it out.

At this time, Paul finished his call and said with a smile: "Mom, Uncle Xiao, and Brother Ye Chen, I've already spoken to the driver. Let's go out."

"Okay." Ye Chen said with a smile: "Then let's go."

The four of them went out of the airport together. A brand-new Rolls-Royce Phantom was parked in front of them at the entrance. A foreigner got out of the car and respectfully said to Paul in English: "Hello, General Manager!"

Paul nodded slightly.

The foreign driver then said to Han Meiqing: "Hello, Chairwoman."

Han Meiqing nodded with a smile and said: "Mike, help me take the luggage to Bai Jinhangong. Just have the front desk send the luggage to my room and Mike's room respectively."

The foreign driver hurriedly nodded and said: "Okay, Chairwoman, I'll go right now!"

Afterwards, he opened the trunk of the Rolls-Royce Phantom, took the suitcases from Paul's hands, and stuffed them into the trunk.

After doing this, he asked Han Meiqing again: "Chairwoman, aren't you and the General Manager taking this car?"

Han Meiqing nodded and said: "I'm taking my old classmate's car. You go ahead."

Xiao Changkun looked at that brand-new, luxurious Rolls-Royce, and felt particularly uncomfortable.

He could tell the value of this car.

The bare car alone cost eight or nine million, and choosing a pure gold little golden man emblem for this car cost more than two hundred thousand!

Therefore, Xiao Changkun felt even more inferior.

He couldn't help but say to Han Meiqing: "Oh my, Meiqing, why don't you take this Rolls-Royce instead? My car isn't very high-class. I'm afraid you won't be used to it and will be wronged."

Han Meiqing said very seriously: "Changkun, we've known each other for so many years. Do you think I'm the kind of person who is vain?"

Xiao Changkun was a bit awkward all of a sudden.

He stammered: "My car is just an ordinary BMW 5 Series. I'm afraid it will wrong you..."

Han Meiqing was a bit angry and said: "Changkun, why do you care so much about these things now? Whether it's a Rolls-Royce or a BMW 5 Series, or even the big '28' bicycles that you male students were popular with back then, aren't they all just a means of transportation? Let alone a BMW 5 Series, even if you rode a big '28' to pick me up today, I would be willing to sit on it."

As she spoke, Han Meiqing smiled and said: "But I estimate that at your age now, I'm afraid it would be a bit strenuous for you to ride a bicycle with me on it?"

With Han Meiqing saying this, Xiao Changkun felt much more comfortable.

He was really afraid that Han Meiqing, having gotten used to Rolls-Royces, would feel somewhat uncomfortable sitting in his BMW 5 Series. If she felt uncomfortable, he wouldn't be able to save face.

However, Paul suddenly whispered to Han Meiqing in English at this time: "Mom, why don't you take this car? The BMW 5 Series has very poor comfort. I'm afraid you won't be able to adapt."

Han Meiqing waved her hand and also whispered: "In the future, when meeting my old classmates, don't drive this flashy car. Ask if your company has the most ordinary commercial vehicle, like the Buick GL8 that costs two or three hundred thousand. I don't want to return after more than twenty years and have everyone feel that there is too much distance."

Paul said helplessly: "The company really doesn't have such cheap cars. The most ordinary commercial vehicle is the Toyota Alphard that costs over one million..."

Han Meiqing said: "Then just go buy a car that costs two or three hundred thousand."

Paul had no choice but to nod and said: "Okay, since you've ordered it, I'll make the arrangements."

After finishing, he walked to the driver and whispered in his ear: "Go buy a Buick GL8 later."

The driver was slightly stunned and said: "General Manager, our company doesn't have such low-end cars."

Paul said: "It's okay, just go buy one back."

"Okay."

Because Ye Chen's physical fitness was far beyond that of an ordinary person, he heard the whispers between them and couldn't help but admire Han Meiqing exceptionally.

This auntie was not only beautiful and had an extraordinary temperament, but more importantly, her emotional intelligence was too high.

For a middle-aged man, such a woman was simply more of a goddess than the goddess in his dreams.

He could even foresee that his father-in-law, Xiao Changkun, would likely fall completely in love very soon... ===== CHAPTER 436 =====
