"I am merely your foster father. I have come to see you. Is it not him who should please me?" The smile on Xia Fengnan's face made him shudder. She carefully stared at him for a few seconds, then slowly shifted her gaze away and asked: "So, you suddenly remembered that you want to be a father, why don't you try looking for me again?"
"Whatever you think." Xia Fengnan leaned on the sofa, showing the intention to leave.
Gu Jiaru did not want to drag it out any longer, after all it was almost time for lunch, if there were any department or company colleagues who saw her pestering him here, the impact would not be any better, so she wanted to end the conversation "quickly": "Then drink some tea first, I still have things to do, I'm going up first."
"Gu Jiaru." Hearing this, his tone became serious, her eyes full of anger and unease.
She frowned and looked up into his face, her eyes calm, as if nothing had happened.
However, Gu Jiaru's hesitant actions signified her impatience. If he did not clarify what she was planning to do, she really would not have the time to continue "discuss" with him.
"Your conscience was eaten by a dog a few days after you left?" Xia Fengnan's face was solemn, his eyes cold and indifferent.
Gu Jiaru clenched her fists and did not say a word.
On the other side of the computer, Han Yunshang who was facing the surveillance video was carefully observing Gu Jiaru's every move. When he saw her stand up, he almost got up and tried to pull her away from the baffling but reappearing man.
"Damn." When the man stood up, and took a step closer to Gu Jiaru, Han Yunshang secretly cursed.
"Director Han." At this time, Ai Mi's figure appeared outside the half opened door. Han Yunshang raised her head and glanced at her, then closed the computer beside him, "What's the matter?"
"Han Family called. Hanxiuqing, prepare to commit suicide." When Ai Mi said this, her tone was filled with pain. Although she knew that Han Yunshang had always disliked this woman with the Han Family, it was a matter of life and death for her right now, causing her to become nervous.
Hearing this, Han Yunshang took a step forward, his eyebrows knitted together: "Preparing to commit suicide, what does that mean?"
"The specific situation is unclear, but they requested for you and Miss Gu to go over, and said that it was …" Ai Mi carefully looked at Han Yunshang's slightly angry eyes. His eyes turned and after a moment of hesitation, he opened his mouth and closed it again.
"Speak." Han Yunshang's expression became impatient, he turned and started to randomly clean up the table.
"Say yes, if you don't go there, someone will definitely die." Ai Mi and Han Yunshang looked at each other and shrank back in fear. She knew that Han Yunshang especially did not like this kind of threat. This time, Hanxiuqing had obviously committed a huge taboo.
After three to five seconds of silence. Han Yunshang laughed disdainfully, disdain filling his eyes: "After I go, will she continue with his next threat?"
"This... "I don't know." Although Ai Mi felt that her life was in danger, she did not want to continue speaking. After all, under the threat of Han Yunshang's gaze, her own "life" was also in danger.
Han Yunshang raised his hand, and said to her in a soft voice: "I understand, you go back first."
"Oh," Ai Mi paused for a moment before adding, "She also said that she would only give you an hour."
"What?" Han Yunshang's tone revealed his anger. Who did she think he was? How could he accept such a threat that was even more serious.
Ai Mi stammered, "Mn, that's what she said."
"Got it." His words were obviously displeased.
"Okay, then I'll go do my other things." Ai Mi heaved a long sigh of relief in her heart. She couldn't wait to retreat and disappear from Han Yunshang's sight, lest she vent her anger on him.
"Call Gu Jiaru over to prepare." When Ai Mi was moving, Han Yunshang silently weighed this matter in his heart. Currently, whether it was on the surface or in his heart, he probably hated the Han Family thoroughly. If there really was a human life, perhaps the hatred between him and Han Family would have been completely resolved. Regardless of whether or not the Han Family had survived this crisis, they would continuously look for trouble with the Han Family.
Han Yunshang was not afraid of trouble, it was just that his way of life was always a matter that could be resolved quickly, he did not want to drag things out.
"Alright." Ai Mi also did not expect Director Han to not have a single trace of worry and fear, and was preparing to bring Miss Gu along. She hesitated for a moment, and then, her hand that wanted to close the door gently dropped down.
However, after hesitating for a moment, he picked up his mobile phone and said, "Forget it, I'll go there myself."
"Ugh …" "Alright …" Fortunately, Ai Mi was already prepared for this, so she was not caught unprepared. "Miss Gu is in the conference room, do you want to go over directly?"
"Yes, I can." Han Yunshang responded with a profound smile at the corner of his mouth, as complex emotions filled his eyes.
When he got off the elevator, Han Yunshang had already recalled the man he met with Gu Jiaru a few times. He even knew who he was, but he just didn't understand what that man was trying to be mysterious about.
What was even stranger was that although Gu Jiaru was clearly a man of character, she had almost never mentioned him to her when facing her foster father, who had been taking care of her since she was young.
There were several times when Han Yunshang wanted to take the initiative and ask questions, but he could only swallow his words back down his throat.
Since he took the initiative to come to Han Clan this time, it was time to meet him.
Thinking about that, the elevator door just happened to open. Han Yunshang did not hesitate for a moment and immediately walked out with big strides.
"Hello, Director Han."
"Director Han."
The greeting's voice caused Gu Jiaru, who had originally sat down quietly once again, to instantly become flustered. Her gaze was erratic, and she tightly held onto the table's surface.
She heard the voice coming from behind her, and even felt the "fluctuations" in the air brought about by Han Yunshang's "aura". However, she didn't know why, but she felt like she didn't dare to turn back.
When he raised his eyes again, Xia Fengnan just looked straight at Gu Jiaru, her eyes filled with deep meaning.
Gu Jiaru frowned, after stealthily glancing at the reflecting material in front of her, and confirming that Han Yunshang did not enter the conference room, she stuck her head out, lowered her voice, and said to Xia Fengnan: "Why are you still not leaving?"
"Why should I leave?" Xia Fengnan stopped smiling and leaned back on the sofa with a straight face, tilting his head, as if he wanted to watch a good show.
Gu Jiaru frowned: "Don't tell me you want to come and harm me?"
"Why should I harm you? The people who harmed your Gu family do not need me to tell you, you understand. " When Xia Fengnan said this, his eyes were filled with hatred. As his words fell to the last word, his gnashing teeth clearly showed his emotions.
"I …" Gu Jiaru wanted to reply him, but of course she understood. But at this time, Han Yunshang's voice came from behind: "Jia Ru, there's something you need to go out with me for a bit."
Although Gu Jiaru was already prepared a few minutes ago, her body still trembled uncontrollably. She did not know whether her face was pale or not, but after biting her lower lip and controlling her facial expression, she turned around and gave Han Yunshang a sweet smile, "Alright."
"This is?" On the surface, Han Yunshang did not pretend to be stupid, he walked towards Gu Jiaru and asked politely.
But in reality, he already knew a lot of things, but he was just pretending that he didn't know anything.
For some reason, Gu Jiaru didn't want Xia Fengnan to speak in front of his. Although she knew that he had always been cautious, she wasn't wrong in her words.
The current her had a feeling that she wanted to control the situation and protect her peaceful life. She didn't allow anyone to disrupt her, not even Xia Fengnan.
She took a step towards Han Yunshang and quickly said, "This is …"
"I'm her father." Unexpectedly, Gu Jiaru's words were still completely suppressed by him.
As he said that, he stood up and looked at Han Yunshang with a deadpan expression. If it was someone who didn't know anything, they would have thought he was a strict father.
Gu Jiaru knew what Xia Fengnan meant when she said that, and how she felt towards her own biological parents. Thus, she naturally understood the hatred deep within his heart and did not wish for the two of them to intersect for too long.
She looked at Han Yunshang, and realized that he had also been completely stunned. The gaze she used to look at Gu Jiaru contained some unease and panic.
With her back facing Xia Fengnan, Gu Jiaru clasped her hands together and made an apologetic gesture towards Han Yunshang. She even nodded at her, indicating that she agreed to what Xia Fengnan had just said.
Gu Jiaru knew that she could no longer predict what would happen next. At the same time, she suddenly realised that when Xia Fengnan came here, she was no longer afraid of meeting Han Yunshang.
Make your move early, or else … He would definitely intervene.
Thinking of this, she felt her heart turn cold.
Han Yunshang's reaction was out of her expectations, but it was also within reason. As if it was his first time seeing his father-in-law's son-in-law, he walked in front of Xia Fengnan and bowed forty-five degrees, then took the initiative to extend his hand out. "I'm sorry, I didn't ask for your opinion before getting my certificate from Jia Ru.
Hearing that, Gu Jiaru was stunned. She had actually completely forgotten to arrange such an important matter for herself, and her and Xia Fengnan's current performance seemed to be somewhat illogical; it was simply not a relationship and reaction that an ordinary family father and daughter should have.
Instead, he happily accepted it. As he extended his hand, he looked at Han Yunshang with a doting gaze: "This is not your fault, Jia Ru actually mentioned you to me before. I have long heard of your matter, so I promised you."
Did he mention it? Agreed?
Gu Jiaru opened her eyes wide, she wanted to push herself towards the middle of them, so that Han Yunshang would misunderstand him.
If she had mentioned him to her father in Han Yunshang's heart. Then, it was illogical for her to not even mention this foster father in front of him.
What Xia Fengnan meant was, he was only here to remind Su Yun? Everything else that needed to be explained needed to be completed by Gu Jiaru herself?
To put it bluntly, he was actually here to cause trouble?
