s.h.i.+ Mengwan refused to be pestered like this. She needed to forget Zhan Haoze as soon as possible and not let him appear in front of her again and again.

However, Zhan Haoze didn’t seem to notice the ugly expression on her face. He suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms.

s.h.i.+ Mengwan was stunned for a moment. She wanted to push him away, but he hugged her very tightly.

Zhan Haoze’s chin touched s.h.i.+ Mengwan’s hair. Smelling the fragrance in her hair, he felt his mood gradually calm down.

His hands around her waist were a little tight. The feeling of being worried that something would happen to her made him lose his mind for a moment.

s.h.i.+ Mengwan didn’t let him hug her for too long. She suddenly raised her elbow and slammed it hard into his chest.

Zhan Haoze was caught off guard by her attack. He took two steps back and let go of her hand.

s.h.i.+ Mengwan took a deep breath. Her will wasn’t strong enough. Especially when it came to matters related to Zhan Haoze.

But this didn’t mean that she had no bottom line or principles.

On the contrary, it was precisely because she had principles and bottom lines that she couldn’t accept Zhan Haoze’s behavior.

“Zhan Haoze, do you have to do this?”

Must he use this method to constantly get closer and shake her will?

“Wanwan.” Zhan Haoze thought about Chen Feifei’s car accident and his brows furrowed tightly.

Those explanations were hard to say and he didn’t want her to know those worries, but when he saw s.h.i.+ Mengwan’s clueless expression, he hesitated again.

He didn’t say anything, and s.h.i.+ Mengwan didn’t know what to say either, so she kept silent as well.

Facing each other, the two of them kept silent. A few minutes pa.s.sed, and s.h.i.+ Mengwan finally couldn’t stand the situation in front of her.

She didn’t want to speak anymore, nor did she look at Zhan Haoze. She turned around and returned to her seat.

She still had an order to finish, so she wanted to finish it quickly so that she could go to Rong City to see Su Qingsang.

Although Su Qingsang didn’t lack people to take care of her, and she was a doctor in the obstetrics and gynecology department, s.h.i.+ Mengwan still wanted to see Su Qingsang with her own eyes to make sure that she was safe.

As soon as her hand touched the mouse, Zhan Haoze walked up to her.

He held her hand so that she could not continue for a while.

“Zhan Haoze.” Even if he was crazy, he should have had enough now, right?

“Follow me to Qing City.”

He wanted to go to Qing City to personally resolve the Zhan family’s troubles. Before that, he had to put her in front of him and put her under his nose before he could feel at ease.

s.h.i.+ Mengwan blinked. For a moment, she thought that the man in front of her was possessed.

“What did you say?”

“Follow me to Qing City.” As if afraid that s.h.i.+ Mengwan didn’t quite understand, he didn’t mind saying it more clearly. “My father is from Qing City. My home is also in Qing City. I want to bring you back.”

s.h.i.+ Mengwan looked at him holding her hand and chuckled. “You mean, bring me to meet your parents?”

Zhan Haoze frowned. He didn’t mean that. In his heart, no one in the Zhan family was qualified to be “parents”.

“You don’t need to see them.” In Zhan Haoze’s heart, they were just a group of unimportant people.

He and Zhan Kun were people who wouldn’t rest until one of them died.

s.h.i.+ Mengwan misunderstood what he meant. She didn’t know what he meant. The only thing she could be sure of was that Zhan Haoze had never thought of bringing her to see his family.

“Zhan Haoze, you should go. I won’t go to Qing City with you.”

She had heard from Mother s.h.i.+ that Zhan Haoze’s father had married another woman and he had a stepmother. It wasn’t just the stepmother. The stepmother might have her own children.

Under such circ.u.mstances, Zhan Haoze’s relations.h.i.+p with his family was definitely not good. She wouldn’t really request to see his family.

However, Zhan Haoze’s words just now made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Since he didn’t want to bring her to Qing City to see her family, why did he have to say that he wanted to bring her to Qing City?

She pulled her hand away from Zhan Haoze’s and the defensive look on s.h.i.+ Mengwan’s face was even more obvious than before.

“Wanwan –” Zhan Haoze’s expression became more and more conflicted. He wanted to mention it more or less, but he didn’t know where to start.

“I still have something to do. If President Zhan has nothing else to do, please leave.”

As she spoke, she s.h.i.+fted her attention back to the screen in front of her.

Zhan Haoze was about to say something when his phone rang again. It was a call from Tang Hua. He brought two messages.

The two messages made Zhan Haoze’s expression change slightly. After he hung up, he looked at s.h.i.+ Mengwan.

She was focused on the screen. The mouse on her screen clicked a few times, as if she wasn’t affected by him at all.

Zhan Haoze couldn’t finish his sentence. “Wanwan, I might be busy for a while. When I’m done, I’ll come pick you up and take you to Qing City.”

“No need.” s.h.i.+ Mengwan didn’t even raise her head. “I’m not interested.”

Her cold tone was filled with resistance, and he was helpless. Moreover, it was indeed an eventful time. He could only leave first.

“Wanwan, wait for me. I’ll definitely come pick you up.”

If everything was settled by then, it would be easier to pick her up and take her to Qing City.

s.h.i.+ Mengwan acted as if she didn’t hear him and continued to focus on her work. However, after Zhan Haoze left, she put down the mouse and looked at the unknown dot in the distance. No one knew what she was thinking.

..

Zhan Haoze left the office building and Tang Hua had already parked his car downstairs.

He quickly got into the car. Tang Hua looked a little anxious. “Boss, what do you think we should do about this?”

Zhan Kun, that old fart, actually gave an order to kill his boss. Although such an order was only issued from within the Zhan family.

But what kind of family was the Zhan Family? In the early years, they relied on doing some shady business to get the Zhan family to this stage.

The Zhan family had their own hall of a.s.sa.s.sins. They might not be able to compete with the top professional killers in the world, but they were still quite powerful.

For so many years, Zhan Kun had used this hall of a.s.sa.s.sins to get rid of many of his enemies.

Now, Zhan Kun had actually used such a kill order on him. It wasn’t a warning, not a beating. He really wanted his life.

Zhan Haoze’s expression had a rare trace of solemnity. Previously, he thought that Chen Feifei’s injury was a warning to him, but now that he thought about it, it wasn’t.

Thinking back to what uncle Chi had said when he came looking for him, he seemed to understand a little.

No matter if it was the second or third generation of the Zhan family, there was no worthy successor now.

Zhan Kun was already old. Who could continue to lead the Zhan family to the glory of the past few decades? It wouldn’t be that easy. Uncle Chi was probably carrying Zhan Kun behind his back and thinking of letting him take up the mantle of the Zhan family.

What he didn’t know was that his hatred for the Zhan family and Zhan Kun had already been carved into his bones. No matter what the Zhan family did, he was unmoved.

“Boss?” Tang Hua was a little worried because he didn’t speak.

“Go back to Qing City.” Zhan Haoze made a quick decision within a few seconds. Tang Hua wasn’t surprised.

“But if we leave, what about Chen Feifei?”

Actually, he wanted to ask, what about s.h.i.+ Mengwan? The people from the Zhan family were just fl.u.s.tered. They weren’t stupid.

When they reacted, they would definitely understand that Chen Feifei was just a completely useless s.h.i.+eld.

Zhan Haoze narrowed his eyes, as if he had thought of something. “Let’s go. We’ll go to the hospital and then return to Qing City.”

No matter what, Chen Feifei’s injury this time was all because of him. After all, the Chen family had saved his life, and he still needed to give them an explanation.

..

The weather in Qing City had started to turn cold after these days. Zhan Haoze sat in the car and watched the driver lose the people trailing them for the thirteenth time.

He glanced at the traffic behind him. “Ah-Hua, how is the old man doing recently?”

“He’s still hanging on.” He had already suffered two strokes, and this stroke had brought about quite serious consequences. However, Zhan Kun was lucky. He was already in such a state, yet he still didn’t die.

He still had time to deal with Zhan Haoze? It was because his previous actions were too light.

“Tell sixth and seventh to move faster.”

Although this was a bit difficult, at this time, he had no other choice.

Tang Hua nodded in understanding. “Alright, I believe that sixth and seventh will make the necessary arrangements.”

Hopefully. Zhan Haoze had such hopes, but he couldn’t let his guard down completely.

In fact, the Zhan family had been operating in Qing City for decades. Their power was intertwined, and it wasn’t something that could be completely defeated in one or two moves.

He had underestimated his enemy before.

But no matter what, he wouldn’t stop, even if the process was more difficult than he thought.

Zhan haoze narrowed his eyes. His expression was full of danger.

… ..

Zhan Kun was a very biased and very a.s.sertive person. In his heart, if there was someone who didn’t do what he wanted, it must be someone else’s fault, not his fault.

He would never reflect on his own problems. Naturally, he wouldn’t feel that it was his fault that his son, who he had taught himself, was reduced to being a housewife with a woman.

This was that woman’s fault. It was that woman’s fault. It was she who had seduced his son, and she was the one who had caused Zhan Lie to become like this.

Since Zhan Kun had been in a shady business back then, he was an extraordinarily ruthless person.

When he found out that that woman had caused his son to become like this, he had the intention to kill her. He had to get rid of that woman.

But in the beginning, he didn’t find the opportunity to do so. Zhan Lie’s other family seemed to know something, and they were very protective of their grandson and grandson’s child.

Just because he didn’t have the opportunity to do so, it didn’t mean that he would never have the opportunity to do so.

He decided to wait for a period of time, wait for a suitable opportunity, and then get rid of that woman.

At first, he didn’t get a chance, and this made him depressed. Later, he even brought Zhan Zhi and Mingquan to his side while thinking of nurturing them for a period of time.

But with Zhan Lie in front, the other illegitimate children naturally couldn’t satisfy Zhan Kun.

The more dissatisfied he was, the more he hated Zhan Lie and Zhan Lie’s wife.

Later, Zhan Kun’s opportunity finally came. Because of the change of power, Zhan Lie’s family met with some trouble. They couldn’t care about Zhan Lie for the time being. This was an opportunity for Zhan Kun.

Previously, because he was worried about Zhan Lie’s family, he didn’t make a move. Now that Zhan Lie’s family was in trouble, his opportunity came.

And at this time, Zhan Lie had been living outside with his wife for several years now.

The family of three was living in another city, living the most ordinary, most mundane life. When he saw the research materials again, Zhan Kun was still extremely angry.

Because after so many years, he actually didn’t pick out a child who could inherit his career. Zhan Lie, who could inherit, was bewitched by a woman.

He couldn’t bear it. Zhan Kun decided to get rid of that woman. Before he got rid of her, he came to the door with the last trace of his intention to use their father-son relations.h.i.+p.

At the beginning, Zhan Kun decided to treat him with respect before he attacked. If Zhan Lie was willing to obediently let him go home, then he could just kill that woman and let him bring that b * stard home.

But if Zhan Lie didn’t listen to him, then don’t blame him for being rude.

When Zhan Kun came to the door, Zhan Lie was naturally very surprised. He had no idea that his father had actually set his eyes on him several years ago.

Seeing his father, Zhan Lie was still happy, but that happiness didn’t last long.

“Zhan Lie, you disappoint me too much.”

Since young, Zhan Kun, who had always been cold-blooded and indifferent, still put on that kind of face.

“Dad –”

“Don’t call me.” Zhan Kun was very angry. “For a woman, where did you put the honor of our family in the Zhan Family?”

Zhan Lie was silent. He had indeed let down Zhan Kun’s breeding efforts. However, he said, “Dad, Ruoliu is a good woman. If you had really come into contact with her, you would definitely like her.”

“Hmph. Impossible.”

“It’s true.” Zhan Lie was still too naive. At this time, he was still trying to convince him to accept his wife.

“Ruoliu is a very good woman. Dad, you really –”

“Shut up.” Wis.h.i.+ng he could strangle him to death, Zhan Kun glared at his son in front of him.

However, the purpose of his visit today wasn’t to play games with his son. Zhan Kun’s face was cold. He took out a gun and threw it in front of Zhan Lie.

“Take it.”

“Dad?” Zhan Kun was shocked. He wasn’t unfamiliar with guns, but after leaving the Zhan family, he hadn’t touched one for many years.

“You are my son, so you can’t be so cowardly, right?”

Zhan Kun sneered, “Don’t say that I, as your father, didn’t give you a chance.”

“What do you mean, dad?”

“Pick it up.”

Zhan Kun shouted. Zhan Lie hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he picked up the gun.

“Dad?”

“Kill her –”

As Zhan Kun spoke, he pointed at Qiao Ruoliu, who had just come down from upstairs and had just settled her baby.

“Dad?”

Zhan Lie had been living too comfortably these past few years. He was so comfortable that he had forgotten how the Zhan family had made their fortune.

He looked at the gun in his hand and then at Zhan Kun. In the end, he threw the gun out like it was a hot potato and threw it on the coffee table.

“Dad. Are you, are you crazy?” Zhan Lie’s expression was full of shock and blame.

“I’ll say it again.” Zhan Kun looked at his useless child and pushed the gun towards Zhan Lie once again.

“Didn’t you say that you wanted to go back to the Zhan family? If that’s the case, then kill this woman. Once she’s dead, you can go back to the Zhan family.”

“Dad. If you say that, I won’t go back to the Zhan family for the rest of my life.”

Zhan Lie’s words caused Zhan Kun to squint his eyes. His face was filled with anger. In the end, he picked up the gun before Zhan Lie. He faced Qiao Ruoliu, who was already standing there somewhat frightened.
