Chapter 141: Profound Meaning

Odd as it was, Zhuang Qingning, rather than making up her own mind, approached him and explained every detail of the situation to him. Likely, she did this because he had paved the way for her tofu making business. By approaching him, it showed her respect for him.

Having lived for so many years, Zhang Yongchang believed that he had seen people of all kinds. Countless people had spoken nicely to him.

Some were deceitful, with their actions not matching their thoughts. Others were manipulative, their words and eyes, and even the smiles on their faces would not hide their intense desire for gain.

Zhuang Qingning, on the other hand, with her clear eyes and genuine respect for others, was rare and very likable.

It was a shame he had no children of his own. If his late wife was still alive and they had a daughter, she would probably be around Zhuang Qingning's age. He imagined that she would be just as clever and sensible as Zhuang Qingning.
