CHAPTER 842: CHAPTER 842: YOU WILL PAY THE PRICE (9)

Gu Nuan looked at his departing figure and closed her eyes.

"Dad, what’s up?" Ou Yanan asked the person on the phone.

"I asked your mom where you were, and she said you’re still interning at the hospital. Being a doctor is a good thing, but occasionally you should think about the family, you know?" Ou Shihua earnestly educated his son.

Ou Yanan said softly, "I know, I keep in touch with Mom."

"Alright, tomorrow, I need to come to your place, there’s something urgent I need to deal with."

"When you arrive, call me?"

"No need, if you’re busy with work, just keep at it. I’m just letting you know. Also, find some time to have a meal. Our family of three hasn’t eaten together in a long time."

"I got it, Dad."

"Work hard."

The phone clicked off with a snap.

Ou Yanan frowned.

Downstairs, Gu Dad and Gu Mom returned. Zhang San, who stayed here, didn’t dare tell them about Gu Nuan’s health, afraid they would worry more, and only said she’d gone to sleep.

Instead, Gu Dad and Gu Mom seemed a bit impatient, upon hearing their daughter went to sleep, they rushed to report the news to Zhang Sanfeng, saying, "Our third aunt was found, she’s now at the police station giving a statement. Her daughter died near Mingxin Hospital."

Ou Yanan walked to the staircase entrance and heard this, indeed giving him a shock.

That Qiu Jiali died?

What happened?

Wasn’t everything fine when he left?

Zhang Sanfeng’s housekeeper was in fact following Ou Yanan’s instructions, having someone track these girls, but that day, the cars were coming and going at the entrance, it was chaotic, and before they could find Qiu Jiali and her group, something had already happened.

Therefore, Zhang Sanfeng was aware of what happened to Qiu Jiali, and when hearing Gu Dad and Gu Mom share this news, he only nodded indifferently: "Apparently, she was killed by a brick, whether it’s an accident or intentional harm needs to be determined by the police."

"I find it too coincidental," Gu Mom said.

Zhang Sanfeng looked up at Gu Mom’s face.

Gu Dad pulled Gu Mom to continue, asking, "How about it? Any news on Yebai?"

Knowing they’d eventually find out, Zhang Sanfeng didn’t hide it and said, "After he ran away from the Xiao Family, he’s been missing. Uncle and Aunt don’t worry, we’re now adding manpower to investigate what happened that night."

Gu Dad and Gu Mom certainly had their hearts hanging anxiously.

Then, the call came.

Gu Aunt called to tell Gu Dad: "Mom and Dad said they want you two to accompany them back to the old home, otherwise don’t come back!"

The old couple of the Gu Family feared Gu Dad would deceive them, enjoying himself here.

Facing such old folks, Gu Dad had nothing to say.

Gu Mom said to Gu Dad, "Either you accompany your parents back, I’ll stay here with Nuannuan."

"They fear you enjoying yourself here, does not going back help?" Gu Dad said.

Gu Mom was fuming, yet they were her husband’s parents.

A sound of footsteps came from the stairs.

Gu Dad and Gu Mom looked up and saw Ou Yanan descending the stairs.

Their hearts skipped a beat.

Facing them, Ou Yanan said, "You should go, she’s here, with professional doctors taking care, nothing will happen."

For some reason, when this young man, who looked much like their son, said this, Gu Dad and Gu Mom suddenly felt a sense of reassurance.

Thinking if their own son grew up, he would surely stand by his sister in such situations; with such a brother by her side, it should give their parents peace of mind.

"We’ll go fool those old folks for a few days then find a chance to come back," Gu Dad decided.

Gu Mom had no choice.

Zhang Sanfeng, hearing their resolution, arranged for tickets and the plan to go back.

The next day, at the airport, Xiao Shulan met Ou Shihua.

"Mr. Ou, hello, isn’t Mrs. Ou coming?" Not familiar with Ou Chunhua, Xiao Shulan asked.

"Her flight is in the afternoon," Ou Shihua said.

Hearing this, Xiao Shulan was naturally delighted, saying, "Actually, regarding the cooperation between the two families, Mrs. Ou mentioned it before, she should have talked to Mr. Ou about it—"

"She mentioned it, saying she had a good impression of a lady she met on the plane."

These words didn’t refer to Kang Yueting, but Zhao Mengjin.

Xiao Shulan’s expression dimmed slightly.

Standing behind her, the usually timid and shy Kang Yueting suddenly stepped forward, unexpectedly bold, smiling at Ou Shihua: "Hello Uncle, I’ve met your son, Brother Ou, and I quite like him."

"Is that so?" Ou Shihua was both surprised and laughed heartily.

His son being liked, of course, made him proud.

"If Uncle Ou could help me and Brother Ou be together, that would be wonderful. Now, my family company is under my mom’s leadership."

Hearing her daughter speak this way, Xiao Shulan was taken aback.

Opposite, Ou Shihua seemed unaffected by Kang Yueting’s words, keeping a slight smile with deep curves at the corner of his mouth.

"Let’s go, Miss Second, let’s discuss the details thoroughly."

Xiao Shulan, overjoyed, maintained her composure, saying, "Mr. Ou understanding our Xiao Family so well is truly wonderful."

"It’s nothing—just that woman is called Gu Nuan?"
