This left Han Guangzhi feeling rather inadequate in front of Han Tingting. He thought the whole situation was rather pointless. Since Han Tingting wasn't close to him, he figured he wouldn't be able to benefit from her good fortune in the future anyway.
'Besides, she's so young but already knows how to plan for her future. She's got her whole life mapped out, and it's clear her father isn't part of it. So why should I go out of my way to curry favor?'
Having come to this conclusion, Han Guangzhi didn't want to stay in his hometown any longer. On the fourth day after his arrival, he started making arrangements to leave. Of course, Tan You had no intention of asking him to stay. Before the group had even left the house, Tan You was already whispering with Han Cunming.
"It just so happens I have tomorrow off. I'll bring back a couple of nice side dishes for you when I get home in the evening."
"I'll make you some old duck soup tomorrow..."
