Bab 188: I hate storms.

For Caishen, the day was not shaping up as he expected. He had been denied a permit for an abandoned old hotel site which Zhang construction wanted to rebuild and sell. Then his mother showed up to his office unannounced while he and the lawyers were discussing the matter. 

She was not alone however, Zhang Bo was right on her heels like a baby goat following it's mother. When they walked in, Zhang Bo mouthed, 'I am sorry.' 

Caishen had no idea why his brother was apologizing but it could not be good if a silent apology was how this conversation was about to be started. 

His mother had that look in her eyes which were narrowed in annoyance. She always looked like that when she was about to brew up a storm. He did not like storms, they never brought anything good.

He moved out from behind his desk and came to closer, joining them in the center of his office where they were sitting.

"Mother," he said tentatively. "What a pleasant surprise."
