Chapter 244 - I Want to Meet Him

Zhang Yu Han paused as he heard her question. He thought of the last conversation he had with his mother and nodded. "Hmm… but they haven't confirmed on the date yet. So I haven't got the chance to tell you about it." Seeing the uneasy look on her face, Zhang Yu Han raised a brow. "What is it?"

Li Qin Yao stared at her hands as if something was preoccupying her mind. "Zhang Yu Han, do you think your parents will like me?"

"Why wouldn't they like you?" Zhang Yu Han tilted his head sideways as he wondered what was on his wife's mind at the moment. She looked fine a moment ago. How did she suddenly worried whether his parents will like her or not?

"Well, I married you even before meeting them. Wouldn't they dislike me for that? What if they think that I have stolen their son away from them?"

A laugh escape him when he heard her words. "What nonsense are you thinking about?" He stared at her face and resisted the urge to flick his finger on her forehead. 

Li Qin Yao frowned at his words. She did not think that her thoughts were nonsense.

"Don't worry too much. My parents will like you. Even if you wanted to kidnap me away, I will gladly follow you around." He let out a chuckle. "Besides, I was the one who was too impatient to marry you. My parents would not blame you. They were glad that someone was willing to marry their son."

"Sweet talker." She could not help but laugh.

Zhang Yu Han lifted his hand and ruffled her hair. "Actually, my parents wanted to hurry back to come and meet you the first time they learned that you have agreed to date me. But since Grandfather had handed over the International branch for my father to manage, the two of them were slightly busy."

"Really?"

"Why would I lie to you?"

"Every day, my mom had to listen to both Grandfather and Yu Ying talking about you. Of course, she was curious about her daughter-in-law. But Grandfather told them to be patient and come back once they finished their work. Or else, my mom would ask to video chat with you."

Li Qin Yao let out a long sigh. At the thought that the first meeting with Zhang Yu Han's parents would be through a video chat, Li Qin Yao was suddenly nervous. Fortunately, they did not go through with that idea. She wanted to give her parents-in-law a good impression when they met face to face.

When she heard that her parents-in-law would be returning soon, Li Qin Yao could not help but worry. Although Zhang Jing and Zhang Yu Ying both accepted her, Li Qin Yao could not shake off her worry. After all, previously when she was meeting Chen Hao's parents, she was rejected due to her background. Of course, this rejection had formed a scar in her heart.

"Come on. Let's head upstairs," Zhang Yu Han said as he turned off the engine. "I have some matter to discuss with you."

The couple went back into their apartment and headed into the office. Zhang Yu Han placed the envelope he received from Qi Ming Wei on his desk.

"What is it?"

"Remember that you told me that you were looking for the manager who was involved in that accident two years ago?" Zhang Yu Han slid the envelope across the table and motioned his wife to take it. "Manager Guo Jun Shan is now in H Town."

Li Qin Yao's eyes widened when she heard that her husband was able to find out about the manager's whereabouts in a short period. Even the investigators she had employed were unable to track the manager after he had left Y City.

"How did you—" Without wasting a moment, Li Qin Yao quickly opened the envelope and pulled out the papers inside.

"I asked Ming Wei to help find him," Zhang Yu Han confessed. "With the Qi's connection and influence, it was not hard for them to track him down."

Li Qin Yao raised her head to look at her husband again. It did not take her too long to guess that Qi Ming Han came to visit Zhang Jing that night to deliver the investigation report.

Zhang Yu Han watched as his wife browsed through the documents. "Qin Yao, do you want to meet him?"

Li Qin Yao paused at his question. She has been looking for Manager Guo for two years so that she could clear her name again. But at this time, she suddenly hesitated. 

It felt as if a long time has passed. Currently, she was happy with her life. There was a part of her wanted to forget and let go of things. But there was also another part of her that wanted to know what happened. Why did Manager Guo suddenly changed his mind and disappeared when he was supposed to help her testify against her second aunt.

"If you want to meet him, I can ask Ming Wei to arrange a meeting," Zhang Yu Han said. He walked around the table and stopped beside his wife. Zhang Yu Han placed both hands on her shoulders and pulled her so that she was facing him. "Whatever decision you make, you should know that I will always be with you."

It took her a while before she nodded. Raising her head, Li Qin Yao looked at her husband with a determined look. "I want to meet him."

Zhang Yu Han smiled. "Then, I will ask Ming Wei to arrange a meeting."

Li Qin Yao nodded again. 

"But Qin Yao, there is something else you should know," Zhang Yu Han continued. "According to Ming Wei, there is someone else who was keeping their eyes on Guo Jun Shan's family. These people… they are thugs who have been in power around Capital City for years."

A frown appeared on her face as she wondered who would want to hire those people to watch Manager Guo's family. A thought crossed her head. Perhaps Manager Guo got into trouble with those groups of people and that was why he disappeared two years ago?

"I asked Ming Wei to continue and help to keep his eyes on Guo Jun Shan's family," Zhang Yu Han said. He reached his hand to tuck a few strands of hair behind her ears. "We don't know why this group was keeping their eyes on his family. So, Qin Yao, I need you to be more careful. Whatever you decide or plan to do, I hope that you have to come and discuss with me first, alright?"

"Un," Li Qin Yao nodded meekly. 

"You're not alone you know."

"I know." Suddenly, she could feel her eyes and nose started to sour. Li Qin Yao tightened her grip on the papers in her hand and leaned in to wrap her arms around his waist. "Zhang Yu Han, sometimes, I wonder what did I do to end up meeting someone as good as you."

Zhang Yu Han chuckled as he wrapped his arms around her body.
