Chapter 441: Chapter 441: No One Visits a Temple Without a Cause

While they were chatting about these things, Han Jingting’s landline suddenly began to ring.

Without overthinking it, Han Jingting answered the call directly.

As soon as the connection was established, she heard a commotion on the other end of the line.

"I’m sorry, madam, non-employees cannot enter!

"What if I just go in! Let me tell you, my daughter is your chairman, believe it or not, I will have all of you fired!"

On the other end of the phone, Ding Lijuan was trying to force her way in, but fortunately, the company’s security was competent enough to stop her.

Han Jingting recognized it was Ding Lijuan’s voice and hastily asked, "What in the world is going on over there?"

The head of security quickly said, "President Han, there’s a woman here claiming to be your mother; she’s brought a group of people and insists on barging in!"

In fact, the security team was not unfamiliar with Ding Lijuan, they had already taken note of her last time she made a scene at the company’s entrance.

And because of that, they dared not let Ding Lijuan in easily.

Han Jingting was somewhat surprised; since she and Chen Xuan had rescued her father, Han Bowwen, from the gambling house last time, she had been busy with Jiaren Corporation and had hardly had any contact with her parents—it was unexpected that they would suddenly turn up at the company today.

To tell the truth, Han Jingting was now somewhat afraid of her own parents, as every time they came to see her, it usually meant there was no good news.

But after all, they were her parents. Even if they were in the wrong a thousand times, Han Jingting couldn’t possibly turn them away.

Then, with a sense of resignation, Han Jingting simply said, "Fine, let them in."

"Understood, President Han."

On the other end of the phone, the head of security reluctantly let the guards allow them to pass.

Upon hearing she was allowed to enter, Ding Lijuan immediately became haughty and began berating the guards.

"See, I told you! I’m your boss’s mom. The whole company is owned by our family!"

"You people are just a bunch of dogs our family keeps. How dare you stop me; you’re really blind!"

The guards were furiously upset but helpless to do anything.

Ding Lijuan, however, no longer paid any attention to them; along with Han Bowwen and Ding Liang, they entered the company with their chins raised and faces smug with pride.

Recently, due to squandering twenty million, and also causing Chen Xuan to be taken to the gambling house, Ding Lijuan did indeed feel a bit embarrassed, so she had not dared to come to ask Han Jingting for money.

In the past few days, they could only take what remained of the twenty million for a trip abroad, as a way of consoling themselves after their rough experiences on Jiulong Mountain and at the gambling house.

It was only yesterday that they had finally returned from abroad.

Not because their hearts had been soothed, but because their money was completely spent!

Thus, they had no choice but to come back to Han Jingting, hoping to get some more money to spend.

A few minutes later, Ding Lijuan and her group arrived at the top floor.

As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they began shouting excitedly upon seeing the luxurious office decor.

"My goodness, this decor is really nice! Just look at these marble walls; you can tell they cost a pretty penny!" Ding Lijuan remarked, touching the wall surfaces in awe.

Ding Liang’s eyes also gleamed, "Worthy of my sister. In just a few months, she’s come to own such a large company!"

Guo Yue kept nodding in agreement, "It’s Jingting who is capable! Following Jingting, we are sure to reap benefits!"

This mother and son pair knew very well from the beginning that they were not greatly talented; their best path to wealth was to cling to the big tree that was Han Jingting.

Now that this big tree had indeed grown tall, they naturally felt they could benefit from its shade!

Han Bowwen was so excited that he was moved to tears.

"Is... is this company really built by Jingting herself? She’s truly amazing!"

"She’s indeed my daughter, Han Bowwen’s daughter; she truly inherited my excellent business genes!"

Ding Lijuan sneered dismissively, "Just give it a rest, with you being such a useless good-for-nothing, what sort of excellent genes could you possibly have? If your daughter were like you, she’d have been a good-for-nothing long ago!"

Han Bowwen was indignant, "How am I a good-for-nothing!"

Ding Lijuan huffed coldly, "Don’t you know why you’re a good-for-nothing? Since I married you, how many times have you started a business, how many deals have you made, and has there been even one success?"

"And you still dare to talk about excellent genes? That’s just laughable!"

"You..." Han Bowwen was seething with anger but had no rebuttal.

Ding Lijuan then smugly added, "If we’re talking about excellent genes, we should be looking at me. If I hadn’t given birth to a daughter as smart as myself, where would she have gotten her achievements from!"

This time, Ding Liang hurriedly chimed in, "Auntie is right, my sister is so smart, and it’s indeed inseparable from you!"

Ding Lijuan couldn’t stop smiling, "Xiao Liang knows just what to say! Hahaha..."

Engrossed in their conversation, they raised their voices in the corridor, drawing sidelong glances from everyone in the office.

That’s when Yang Shan came out and led them to the president’s office.

"Wow, Jingting, our company is really big, even better than Han Corporation!"

"And this office of yours is really imposing too! Now this is what you call a successful person!"

As soon as Ding Lijuan entered the door, she began exclaiming loudly and uncontrollably.

Han Bowwen also went straight to the desk and plopped himself down in Han Jingting’s presidential chair.

In fact, deep in his heart, Han Bowwen always had a dream of being a president.

When he was young, he always wanted to become the president of Han Corporation, to issue orders to all the Han family members.

But his abilities were limited. Far from becoming the president, he wasn’t even qualified to be a senior executive in the company. From beginning to end, he was just a peripheral figure in the Han family, a complete failure.

Now, seeing Han Jingting actually possessing such a large company, Han Bowwen also felt a deep sense of envy.

"Jingting, it hasn’t been easy for you to achieve such success. However, you must not be too proud. You need to be steady and solid in everything in order to go further. Do you understand?"

Han Bowwen leaned back in the boss’s chair, adopting a patronizing teaching pose.

In truth, he didn’t even understand the significance of his own platitudes, he just relished the feeling of giving advice to successful people.

This seemed to give him an indescribable sense of accomplishment.

Han Jingting didn’t want to say much either and asked directly, "Mom and Dad, did you come to see me today for something specific?"

Ding Lijuan let out a cold laugh, "Listen to how you’re talking. You’re our daughter, can’t we come to see you if we don’t have something specific?"

Han Jingting felt a bitter taste in her heart.

Of course, she hoped to receive care and concern from her parents, but what was the reality?

The last time they came to see her, it was to deceive her into paying a ransom for her father.

The time before that, they came to pressure her into giving them twenty million.

And the time before that, they blocked the company’s entrance to get money from her!

With such ’care’ from her parents, what could Han Jingting possibly look forward to?
