Gu Changle put his fingers on the door panel and knocked lightly.
There were footsteps coming from inside.
Gu Changle frowned and laughed in disgust: "The soundproofing effect of this door is really bad. Didn't the person who bribed her say give her a check or cash?"
Shao Tianze didn't answer, just looked at the door.
Through the gold-rimmed glasses, no one could see the dark and sharp look in his pupils.
He thought that Han Rujia could stand up and testify against Gu for more than just a blank check.
He was wondering who instigated her to testify against Gu.
The sound of slippers falling to the floor could be heard clearly through the door. The moment the door was opened, Gu Changle's eyelids jumped heavily.
Then he whispered: "Jiajia!"
She covered her mouth and looked at Han Rujia, her eyes quickly covered with a hazy mist, as if she were seeing an old friend she hadn't seen for many years, and she couldn't control her emotions after thousands of thoughts came rushing up.
Han Rujia first glanced at Gu Changle in surprise, then her wide eyes recovered gradually, and then she shifted her gaze and landed on Shao Tianze's face behind Gu Changle.
From the age of twenty-nine to thirty-two, after not seeing him for three years, Shao Tianze still looks like a handsome, elegant and humble gentleman.
The emotions in Han Rujia's heart swept away like a storm.
In an instant, it felt like many years had passed, recalling many things.
She looked at Shao Tianze with eyes that were not filled with hatred, but were calm and quiet. At the end, she even showed a slightly bitter smile: "Looking for me?"
Shao Tianze nodded: "Looking for you."
Han Rujia did not step away from the door immediately, but pulled an ugly face and looked at Gu Changle with a half-smile: "Changle, are you coming to me alone, or are you coming to me with Tianze?"
After not seeing each other for many years, Han Rujia showed no signs of unfamiliarity with Gu Changle.
Gu Changle was stunned for a moment, and then responded in a daze: "Of course I came to see you with Tianze."
Han Rujia opened her lips and smiled sarcastically: "I remember that Shao Tianze seems to have married your sister Gu Changge, right? Is it appropriate for a sister-in-law of yours to stay with your brother-in-law all day long?"
Gu Changle was stunned. This was the first time she had been taught such a lesson.
People she usually met would not speak so bluntly, and even when speaking, she would look at Gu Tianze to try to please her.
Seeing her stunned, Han Rujia raised her lips and looked sideways at Shao Tianze: "Shao Tianze, if you want to find me, just come in by yourself and let your sister-in-law wait outside."
"Jiajia?!"
Han Rujia raised his hand: "Gu Changle, don't call me. I am so ugly that I am not worthy of being your friend. You should wait outside."
After saying that, he looked at Shao Tianze: "Do you want to come in?"
Shao Tianze nodded and took a step forward: "Excuse me."
"Don't bother me. I've been waiting for you for many years."
When Gu Changle behind him heard these words, he clenched his fists and his eyes were so cold and vicious that they were about to shoot out sharp needles.
After Shao Tianze entered the door, he turned around and told Gu Changle: "You are not in good health. Don't stand outside the door. Go to the car and wait for me. I will go to you as soon as I finish talking about the matter. Be obedient."
He treated her dotingly and tenderly as if he were coaxing a child.
When Gu Changle heard his voice and saw his appearance, he slowly relaxed his grip on his fingers.
The expressionless face was like a white rose in full bloom, revealing a soft smile: "Well, you have to come out early."
As soon as she finished speaking, Han Rujia inside sneered coldly, stretched out her hand and immediately closed the old door panel.
Gu Changle clenched his back teeth and almost wanted to tear Han Rujia apart immediately.
Although Han Rujia has been disfigured, she was still very affectionate towards Shao Tianze back then.
It’s really uneasy to leave the two of them alone now!
…
The space inside the door is neat and orderly. Although most of the furniture is worn out, fortunately the homeowner has cleaned all the furniture.
Shao Tianze was tall and tall. He did not sit down immediately after entering the room. Instead, he looked at Han Rujia and asked her: "How have you been these past few years?"
"Thanks to you, life would be worse than death," he said, pointing to the sofa at home, "Please sit down, have tea or coffee?"
Shao Tianze smiled bitterly: "You look very bad. Drinking tea and coffee can easily lead to insomnia. You should drink boiled water or milk."
"Then let's have coffee." Han Rujia decided on her own, then bent down to make him instant coffee and put it in front of him.
Shao Tianze didn't dislike it. He picked up the mug and took a sip, then got to the point: "You must hate us very much."
"You?" Han Rujia sneered, "Who are you talking about?"
"Me and Chang Ge."
Han Rujia sat on the sofa opposite Shao Tianze: "Why don't you think I hate Gu Changle?"
"What happened back then, only Gu Changge had the ability to do that, but you doubted Chang Le?"
Han Rujia looked up at her, and the smile on her face had mostly faded: "Gu Changge's willingness to take the blame for Gu Changle is Gu Changge's fault, and who I hate is my freedom."
"The current Gu family is neither Gu Changge's Gu family nor Gu Changle's Gu family. The current Gu family is my Gu family. Do you want to harm me?"
Han Rujia shook her head: "My feelings for you have never changed, and I have never thought of harming you."
"Then why are you doing this now..."
"Because I haven't seen you for a long time. If this hadn't happened, would you have come to see me?"
Shao Tianze frowned suddenly.
Han Rujia smiled and touched her face: "You must think that it would be an insult to you for an ugly person like me to say such things to you, and it would also make you feel disgusting, right?"
Shao Tianze took a breath: "No, I'm sorry for you. I couldn't stop Chang Ge from doing this to you back then."
Han Rujia smiled: "It doesn't matter, I can get this face back. She promised to send me abroad for the best plastic surgery."
"who?"
Shao Tianze suddenly became excited.
As long as we can ask this person, we can know who wants to overthrow the Gu family. Is it the Chu family
Han Rujia shook her head: "I'm so sorry, I can't tell you."
Shao Tianze did not continue to ask who this person was. Gu Changge once said - the more you want to know the question and the question you are persistent about, the less likely the other party will tell you easily.
He knew that what Gu Changge said was right.
He calmed down and lowered his eyes: "It's me who makes the decision now, Mr. Gu. I can send you to a foreign country for the best plastic surgery. But what happened back then was Mr. Gu's fault. I am willing to make the decision to send you to a foreign country for plastic surgery."
Han Rujia looked at him with a smile: "So, why are you willing to do this?"
"I just feel guilty because of what Chang Ge did to you."
As long as Han Rujia agrees, as long as Han Rujia declares to the outside world that she is willing to accept the help and compensation from Gu.
Then, Shao Tianze can tell the public that he felt guilty and made amends to Han Rujia because Gu Changge had done too much harm to others.
At that time, there was no need to say anything else to point the finger of the entire incident at the dead Gu Changge.
Gu Changge is a strong business woman. He can tell everyone from the side that this woman is headstrong and will not listen to others' advice. She is vicious and will do whatever it takes to gain benefits.
He quietly waited for Han Rujia to give him an answer.
Suddenly, an email notification sounded in Han Rujia's bedroom.
Han Rujia put down the coffee cup in her hand and smiled apologetically: "I'm going to check the email."
Then he entered the bedroom.
Three minutes later, Han Rujia came out of the bedroom.
It's just that her face was obviously worse when she came out, and her eyes were still a little dazed when she saw Shao Tianze.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Han Rujia raised her hand to support her head: "I accidentally looked in the mirror just now and was scared by myself."
Shao Tianze's face turned a little apologetic: "I know what happened back then caused great harm to you, so please promise me no matter what and let me help you."
Han Rujia held her forehead, listening to what he said, and suddenly felt funny and laughed.
Then he slowly raised his head and looked at him with his eyes: "Shao Tianze, I haven't really seen who you are for so many years. Now, I finally see clearly."
"What do you mean?" Shao Tianze suddenly felt a bad premonition.
Sure enough, Han Rujia took her hand away from her forehead: "I don't accept your help, please leave."
"Ajia, you..."
When this Ajia was called out, Han Rujia was slightly startled.
As if he suddenly recalled something that happened many years ago, the corners of his lips slowly opened, and there was a wry smile in his eyes: "You must think that I am being ungrateful by driving you away like this and not accepting your help. However, I do this for a reason. Why don't you see my reason and call me by my name again?"
After that, he got up and went to the bedroom to take out his laptop.
The earphones plugged in were suddenly unplugged, and a voice came from the loudspeaker that made Shao Tianze feel chills running down his spine—
"Changge, you see, Han Rujia's disfigurement is not a bad thing for our Gu family. We can take this opportunity to slander Venus. Venus is involved in lawsuits and has disfigured consumers. Who else will go to Venus for plastic surgery? "
"But the person who bribed the doctor to disfigure Han Rujia is from our Gu family! Who is that person?!"
"… it's me."
A simple word, but the surroundings became completely calm in an instant.
Shao Tianze felt as if there was a sudden thunder in his ears, and then his eyes widened in disbelief, staring at the laptop playing the audio.
This is impossible!
This is absolutely impossible!
How could the conversation from that year be recorded as audio and kept until now, and appear on Han Rujia's computer impartially
How could such a thing happen
Han Rujia pressed her finger on the single loop key of the computer's audio playback software and looked at Shao Tianze: "This is the reason why I reject you, Shao Tianze."
Just now, she was still thinking about whether to accept Shao Tianze's overtures and accept Gu's help for plastic surgery.
But this sudden email made her completely change her mind.
A man like this, even if he shows kindness, is deeply utilitarian.
How could she accept his help
