Chapter 450 - 450 We Are All Friends

450 We Are All Friends

The Zhou family’s name in Province A was very useful. Zhou Hao was exceedingly confident that, with his intimidation, that person would definitely submit.

Zhou Hao couldn’t help but lick his lips. Chen Fang’s loss didn’t seem to be a big deal. At least he was in a good mood now.

At the same time, Dong Nan’s house welcomed a strange guest.

Bai Hong was very polite, and he knocked on the door before entering.

Ever since he had started working for Chu Ning, he had become more patient and courteous.

Dong Nan’s eyes flashed as she looked at Bai Hong.

In the afternoon, she had chosen to leave Jingyuan High School because Xu Xi had given her a phone number.

It was Deputy Mayor Xu Gang’s personal contact number. Xu Xi had told her very simply that if anyone dared to create trouble for her again, she could call the deputy mayor directly and let the troublemaker take the call.

“Mom, who is this uncle? Why haven’t I seen him before?” Dong Nan’s son asked in confusion as he looked at Bai Hong, who was sitting in their living room with a calm expression.

“He is…your father’s good friend.” Dong Nan was a little hesitant, but she still came up with a reasonable identity for Bai Hong.

At the door, Bai Hong had explained the purpose of his visit to Dong Nan. He had been sent by Chu Ning to protect Dong Nan’s family.

Although she had the protection of the deputy mayor, it was inevitable that Zhou Hao would do something crazy.

“Father’s good friend? Why is he staying in our house? Also, when will Father be back?” Dong Nan’s son scratched his head. He was still unable to comprehend it.

“Hurry up and do your homework. Mom still has something to tell this uncle.” Dong Nan could not answer her son’s question, so she could only say this.

“Alright.” The child left the living room reluctantly, his eyes sizing Bai Hong up.

“About President Chu… I’m sorry, but I can’t do anything about it. I really regret what I did back then. I want to make it up to her, but Zhou Hao won’t give me a chance. He keeps forcing our family into a corner.” As Dong Nan spoke, she was about to burst into tears once more.

Even though she was filled with guilt towards Chu Ning, she would still do it if she was given another chance.

She had no other choice.

If it hadn’t been for Xu Xi’s appearance, she would have knelt at Jingyuan High School’s entrance until evening without hesitation.

“Stop. I’m not interested in your story. I’m only responsible for protecting your family.” Bai Hong gestured for her to stop.

“Alright… Thank you, and thank you to President Chu for forgiving us.” Dong Nan hesitated. She couldn’t quite grasp Bai Hong’s intentions from his expression.

However, since he had said that he was there to protect her family, Dong Nan did not have any other opinions.

She could feel that she was being watched every time she went out, but when she stopped to look around, she found nothing.

Dong Nan knew that she and her family was being secretly monitored by Zhou Hao.

It was the same even for Bao Xu, who was lying in the hospital bed.

“Go do what you need to do, just pretend I don’t exist.” Bai Hong turned on the television in Dong Nan’s living room. He made himself at home, grabbing a handful of melon seeds from the coffee table and watching television as he munched on them.

After another half an hour, the second group of ‘guests’ arrived at Dong Nan’s house.

“Bang, bang, bang!” The sound of knocking on the door was heard.

Bai Hong was in the middle of watching an exciting part of the show when he was interrupted by the knocks on the door.

The slight smile on his face gradually disappeared.

Dong Nan was washing her clothes at the moment. When she heard the knocking on the door, her heart thumped.

She was all too aware that Zhou Hao would come for her sooner or later.

Even though she was mentally prepared, when Zhou Hao really came, her heart still pounded.

She couldn’t help but recall the number Xu Xi had given her in the afternoon. She turned to look at Bai Hong, who was still watching television.

Could this lazy person, who was not much different from an ordinary person, really protect her family?

Dong Nan was a little uneasy.

The door to the living room was still opened.

It was Dong Nan’s son, who was doing his homework.

The child did not know what had happened. He and his sister were doing their homework in their room, but the knocking on the living room door was too loud.

He had no choice but to stop doing his homework and get up to open the door.

Dong Nan was hesitating about whether she should call the Deputy Mayor, while Bai Hong was simply too lazy to make a move.

“Good boy.” After the door was opened, Zhou Hao beamed as he patted Dong Nan’s son’s head.

“Who are you guys?” Another child’s voice was heard. It was Dong Nan’s four-and-a-half-year-old daughter.

The narrow stairway outside the living room was almost full of people. They stood behind Zhou Hao, their faces expressionless.
