The annual meeting ended when the clock struck twelve.
When Ye Huanyan returned to the apartment, Song Xiaobo had already returned. He was wearing the waiter's vest that he had not had time to change out of. He and Naonnao were each holding a laptop and tapping on it.
"Secretary Dong sent him back. She said that they don't need him anymore." Gu Min stood up and hurriedly explained.
Ye Huanyan nodded. She forced a smile and closed the bedroom door.
In the hotel apartment, Ling Han closed the door. When he glanced at the comfortable figure on the sofa, his eyes turned cold.
"How was it? How was the talk with my good sister?"
"I will give you what you want. I hope you can keep your promise and let Gu Sinian go."
"If I were you, I wouldn't worry about Gu Sinian. After all, he is the most important person in my life. How could I bear to hurt him?"
Gu Duo stood up from the sofa. Her plush slippers stepped on the floor and her steps were heavy.
"You really don't care about the child in my belly at all. He is your child. Aren't you a little too heartless?"
Ling Han's face was as cold as ice. "You can make any request. I will not acknowledge this child. Abort it or raise it yourself. It's up to you."
Gu Duo's eyes froze. Her voice was tinged with hatred. "You are really cold. Compared to Gu Sinian, you are even worse."
Ling Han's expression did not change. "I have already signed the share transfer agreement. After the lawyer notarizes it, all the shares will be transferred to Umbo's name. After Gu Sinian is released, we will never see each other again."
"Why?" Gu Duo sneered. "Are you so anxious to cut ties with me? Are you afraid that I and this child will come between you and Ye Huanyan? I'm afraid that even if I'm easy to negotiate with, the two from the Four Seasons Manor won't be easy to negotiate with. Do you really think that you and Ye Huanyan can go back to how they were before just because you sent me away? "
"This is between me and her."
"Do you think she really forgave you? Even if she forgave you, would she be together with a cripple? " Gu Duo's eyes swept over Ling Han's slightly trembling legs. "The effect of the drug is about to wear off. Can you still stand?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the tall figure slowly collapsed in the living room and appeared in a kneeling position. His pale face was full of pain. He looked in the direction of Gu Duo, but his eyes were full of sarcasm. He gritted his teeth and said, "No wonder Gu Sinian doesn't like you."
His words touched Gu Duo's sore spot. Her expression suddenly changed. She picked up the ashtray on the coffee table and threw it in his direction. She roared, "You don't have the right to talk …"
In the dim light, a muffled groan sounded particularly painful. The ashtray fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
Blood dripped from Ling Han's forehead down his cheeks and dripped onto the floor. It was bright and dazzling.
Gu Duo's emotions were probably stimulated by the blood. She clenched her fingers and trembled for a while. She suddenly calmed down and looked at Ling Han, who fell to the ground and couldn't get up. She sneered, "Why should I be angry with a cripple like you? Just wait. After I get what I want, you will never see me again."
Ling Han covered his forehead. Blood seeped through the gaps between his fingers and stained his hand with blood. He tried to move, but his legs didn't have any other reaction except for twitching.
After soaking in the cold pool for a whole week, the blood circulation in his legs was blocked. He could only rely on temporary stimulation drugs to maintain normal walking. Gu Duo was right. Without those drugs, he was now no different from a cripple.
What right did he have to be with her like this?
Haiyan Media's penthouse apartment.
Since returning, Ye Huanyan had locked herself in the room. The whole room was dark. She hugged the quilt and looked at the little stars outside the window in a daze.
An unexpected child. Such an explanation was too weak.
It was understandable, but not tenable.
Ye Huanyan didn't think that she was an unreasonable person, but she couldn't get over this hurdle in her heart. The child was his blood, and Naonnao wouldn't be his only child. How could she accept that he had such intimate contact with another woman and even had a child?
The sudden blow caused her mind to be in chaos. She had no time to think about the matter between the father and son of the Wen family. She also had no time to analyze the loopholes in Ling Han's explanation that could be seen through at a glance.
Why didn't he replace his phone with a new one? Was it possible that he had disappeared for a week without contacting anyone?
On the other hand, Ji Xiaoyue got into the car after leaving the venue of the annual gala. She called Gu Sinian over and over again, but no one answered the phone.
"Chief Editor, do we go back to the hotel directly or …"
Ji Xiaoyue held the phone and pondered for a moment. "Go to Haiyan Media."
She knew from the beginning that Gu Sinian was investigating Ling Han's disappearance. But now that Ling Han suddenly appeared with Gu Duo, and Gu Sinian's phone couldn't be reached. She just called Gu Sinian's phone and also got a busy tone. Her intuition told her that something might have happened.
Gu Duo's target had always been Gu Sinian. She knew this better than anyone else.
It wasn't that she hadn't done things like creating a diversion.
She was a little anxious. Even though she knew that Gu Sinian might be too busy to call, she still went to Haiyan Media directly to ask Gu Min.
Ji Xiaoyue knocked on Ye Huanyan's door and turned on the lights.
The person on the bed shrank back, as if she couldn't bear the glaring light for a moment.
"Yan Yan."
Ji Xiaoyue frowned and looked at the woman lying on the bed. She hadn't even changed out of her gown or removed her makeup. Her expression froze slightly. "What's wrong with you?"
The person on the bed turned over and said in a muffled voice, "Nothing. It's so late. Why are you here?"
Ji Xiaoyue then remembered the reason why she was here. "I couldn't get through to your brother's phone, and neither could Gu Liu. That's why I'm here to look for Gu Min. I want to see if he can get in touch with Gu Liu."
Ye Huanyan sat up from the bed and looked like she had lost her soul. "My brother should be at the villa. Just ask Gu Min to call his subordinates and we'll know."
Ji Xiaoyue nodded. "I've already asked Gu Min to contact him. But are you okay?"
She only found out about Ye Huanyan's departure from the annual gala later on. Unfortunately, she couldn't leave at the moment, so she only found out about what had happened at the gala after asking around.
"So, what did Ling Han say to you? Did he explain why you were missing during this period of time? "
Ye Huanyan's eyes dimmed. She sat by the bed and took a deep breath.
"He said that he wasn't missing. He just lost his phone. For the past two days, he has been dealing with Gu Duo … and the child in her belly. He lives in Los Angeles."
Gu Duo's biological parents lived in Los Angeles.
"That child …"
"He admitted it. He said that … it was his."
