old love revisited

Chapter 9 Pregnancy (3)
Almost at this glance, Qu Ranran guessed that this woman is "Zi Xin"... The reason is very simple, one is that Guan Hao is very close to this woman, and the other is that she and this woman really look alike .

Qu Ranran used to always think, for a man like Guan Hao who hides his thoughts and does things in a low-key manner, what kind of woman would he like?Now it seems that men still can't escape the appearance association. The beauty of "Zi Xin" is captivating. No wonder Guan Hao has been obsessed with it, so he found a substitute to relieve his lovesickness...

As soon as Qu Ranran stepped into the house, she saw her friend Qi Siya running towards her with tears streaming down her face, and with a "huh", she hugged her tightly.

Qu Ranran patted her friend on the shoulder, "Hey, be careful, I'm not alone now..."

Qi Siya let go of Qu Ranran slowly, and punched Qu Ranran on the shoulder with her pink fist, with tears in her eyes, "You heartless girl, don't tell me that you are leaving tonight, and you still have to go!" If you leave, you plan to never come back, oh...how can you be willing?"

Qu Ranran reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her friend's eyes, and comforted her with a smile, "I don't want to cry like this, I just left T City, it's not that I won't contact you in the future..."

Qi Siya sobbed, "I know, Sister Chen said that you have relatives abroad and wanted to take you to live abroad, lest you stay alone in T City..."

It turns out that Sister Chen explained it like this, which is really reasonable.

"Ah."

Blinking her tear-stained eyes, Qi Siya asked seriously, "Then are you willing to leave that person?"

Qu Ranran held her friend's face in her arms and said coquettishly, "You are the only person who is reluctant to part with it, but communication is very convenient now, as long as there is contact, there is zero distance."

Qi Siya gave her friend an angry look, "Don't play dumb, you know who I'm referring to."

Qu Ranran laughed dryly, "You really hate it, you always mention him to me... say, are you interested in him?"

Qi Siya immediately raised four fingers, "I swear to you, I am only fantasizing about Guan Hao, and I have absolutely no desire to covet Guan Hao."

Qu Ranran patted off her friend's hand with a smile, "Okay, it doesn't matter to me if you covet him, but I will advise you to think carefully, because, based on my two years of experience with Guan Hao Come and see, he is a person you will never figure out, and he is not what you see on the surface..."

When Zou Ji walked into the suite, he happened to see Qin Zixin shyly leaning on Guan Hao's arms. At dusk, the soft light of the setting sun poured into the room through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the picture looked so beautiful.

Zou Ji wanted to leave the door, but was accidentally seen by Qin Zixin.

Zou Ji could only turn back in embarrassment, and said bravely, "Boss, I don't want to disturb you, but I have something to tell you."

Qin Zixin took the initiative to distance herself from Guan Hao, and said empathetically, "You must have business to discuss with Guan Hao, so I won't hinder you, I'll go and freshen up." Then she walked into the bedroom.

Zou Ji said seriously, "Boss."

"Say."

"The evidence has been handed over to the police as you ordered..."

……

Two hours later, T City LY Airport.

Sister Chen was dragging the luggage in front, while Qu Ranran and Qi Siya walked behind arm in arm.

Qi Siya still couldn't help regretting, "Oh, even if you have to leave, you can tell people and see how they react!"

How can he react?At this moment, he is probably holding tenderness in his arms, and he doesn't even have time to think of her...

Of course, Qu Ranran didn't tell Qi Siya about such thoughts, she just smiled softly and said, "I don't want to know."

Qi Siya opened her eyes wide and said seriously, "Even if he doesn't care about you, he might also care about the child in your womb. You just took the child away like this. Didn't you think it would be unfair to Guan Hao?"

Qu Ranran lowered her eyes slowly, "To tell you the truth, the child was an accident, and he and I don't want to have it... I think, after I leave T City, I will find a lawyer to talk to him about the child. I'm fighting for custody of the child."

"But……"

Qi Siya wanted to say something else, but Sister Chen in front of her just said, "Miss, it's ready for security check."

"it is good."

When they came to the security checkpoint, Qu Ranran waved goodbye to Qi Siya.

With tears in her eyes, Qi Siya also waved.

Just when Qu Ranran took the documents from Sister Chen and was about to go to the security check, two policemen suddenly came beside Qu Ranran. They quickly stopped Qu Ranran, and one of them said seriously, "Hello, Is it Miss Qu Ranran?"

"Uh, I am."

"Sorry, you can't leave the country now, our police have some questions about your father and want to ask you."

Police station.

In the interrogation room, Qu Ranran stared at the serious police officer opposite in awe, shaking her head constantly, "No, officer, you must have made a mistake, my dad is not such a person, and he would never do such a thing, I ask you to investigate clearly!!"

The policeman then handed the stack of documents in his hand to Qu Ranran, and said seriously, "Miss Qu, this is the anonymous email I received this morning...the email clearly stated that 25 years ago, your father was with Malaysian Chinese Li Zhaojun, the daughter of the rubber tycoon Li Xianzhi, was dating Li Zhaojun, and cheated Li Xianzhi of one billion yuan from his daughter Li Zhaojun by means of a fraudulent marriage.”

Qu Ranran flipped through the information in front of her, and finally stopped her gaze on an intimate photo of a man and a woman embracing each other...

Even though the man in the photo was in his prime, Qu Ranran recognized at a glance that the man in the photo was his father who was in full bloom back then, but Qu Ranran knew nothing about the woman in the photo. do not know.

Qu Ranran pushed the information to the police, and said firmly, "Just a few documents and these few photos, how can it prove that my dad has committed fraud?"

"Miss Qu, the police will not invite you to assist in the investigation if there is no solid evidence of the crime..."

……

Seeing Qu Ranran coming out of the interrogation room with a pale face, Sister Chen rushed up to greet her and asked nervously, "Miss, what happened? Is it related to the master?"

Qu Ranran nodded slowly, and spit out in a daze, "They said that Daddy was involved in money fraud 25 years ago. Because of the huge amount, the property may be confiscated, and 'Qu', as a corporate group with Daddy as its legal person, will bear the brunt of it." Conduct a share auction to compensate victims."

Sister Chen took a heavy step back after listening to Qu Ranran's narration, her face turned pale quickly.What the master fears the most has finally come...

Qu Ranran didn't notice Sister Chen's abnormal reaction, but asked suspiciously, "Sister Chen, the police said that Daddy once dated a woman named Li Zhaojun in Malaysia. You have been with Daddy for more than 20 years, please tell me , does Daddy really know a woman named Li Zhaojun?"

Sister Chen was still in a daze.

"Sister Chen, Sister Chen..."

After Qu Ranran repeatedly called out, Sister Chen came back to her senses and shook her head vigorously, "Uh, I don't know him, and I've never heard the master mention it."

"But the police do have conclusive evidence. Moreover, according to the information of the police investigation, 25 years ago, Daddy indeed made a fortune inexplicably, and then founded the 'Qu'."

Sister Chen hurriedly said, "Miss, we don't know what the master went through when he was young, but the master has passed away now, and it is meaningless to criticize those right and wrong now... I hope you don't get into this matter, let alone be accused of it." The police misled you into thinking that your father was a villain."

Qu Ranran nodded lightly, "I don't want to believe this, but the police do have real evidence, and the case will be heard in court some other day... If we can't find new evidence to reverse Daddy's confession, it's up to us There is only one way ahead, and that is that 'Qu's' will be auctioned off to repay the victim."

Due to this unexpected incident, Qu Ranran was unable to leave in the end...

So, on the second day after returning from the police station, Qu Ranran ignored Sister Chen's dissuasion to take care of her health, and went into Qu Yaoting's study and bedroom, trying to find clues about her father's relationship with "Li Zhaojun".

Perhaps God was considerate of Qu Ranran's intentions, and finally after turning his father's bedroom upside down, Qu Ranran found a photo of his father and "Li Zhaojun" in the mezzanine of the closet...

Different from the one that the police showed to Qu Ranran, this one clearly proves that the relationship between the two is ambiguous, because in this photo, Qu Yaoting is wearing a white suit and kissing "Li Zhaojun" who is wearing a pure white wedding dress.

……

At this moment, Qu Ranran was leaning on her sofa with a dull expression, her eyes filled with disappointment.

Sister Chen moved to Qu Ranran's side and persuaded softly, "Miss, I told you not to care about this matter. After all, this is the master's past. Even if you know the truth, what can you do?"

Qu Ranran frowned slightly, "What you mean by that is that you know that everything the police found is true, right?"

Sister Chen responded quickly enough, "Of course not, I don't know much about the past of the master."

Lost and looking back at the photo at hand, Qu Ranran thought for a moment, then stood up suddenly, and said seriously, "No, I can't just convict Daddy like this... He taught me the principles of life since I was a child. His nobility and kindness, he will not have such an unbearable past..."

Sister Chen stood up and said seriously, "Miss, in my opinion, since the master has passed away, let the court try it!"

Qu Ranran's eyes widened, "How can this be done? This is related to Daddy's reputation and the survival of 'Qu'."

"As long as we don't apply for an external trial, how can the master's reputation be damaged? Also, the 'Qu family' is already an empty shell, worthless at all, so what if the court awards the victim?"

"No, Sister Chen, Daddy just passed away. I don't want him to be charged with such unbearable crimes. Also, although the 'Qu Family' is already an empty shell, he was founded by Daddy. Although I am not good at management and want to sell it, but Even with a new boss, it can still exist in the business world, and if it accepts the court judgment, the 'Qu' will only be divided up by other shareholders and victims who have received compensation..."

Sister Chen said helplessly, "Even if you know the result, what can you do?"

Qu Ranran replied calmly, "I know a person. He is rich, powerful, and well-connected. He will definitely help me find the best lawyer to fight this lawsuit. At the same time, he can find someone to help me investigate the matter between Daddy and Li Zhaojun. .”

"Miss, you... the person you are looking for is Guan Hao?" Sister Chen seemed unwilling to mention this person by Qu Ranran, with a bit of suppressed fear in her words.

"Yes, he can definitely help me."

Sister Chen excitedly said, "No, Miss, Guan Hao is not someone you can rely on, he actually..." Realizing that she almost slipped the tongue, Sister Chen quickly changed her words, "Uh, what I mean is, you were not the last person you wanted to Do you rely on him?"

Qu Ranran cast her eyes into the distance, and said lightly, "As for husband and wife, we have no relationship, but as for friends, he might help me."

Having known Guan Hao for two years, this is the second time Qu Ranran called Guan Hao.

The first time was when her father passed away, and she was cornered by SF Express and other bosses. She remembered that she called him several times but he didn't answer.

This second time, she was not sure whether he would accept it.

Therefore, when she heard his voice when she made the first call, she was stunned for a few seconds before reacting, "Uh, sorry to bother you, I just want to ask you for a favor because the situation is a bit It's complicated, I don't know if you have time, I'll go find you."

"I'm at home tonight."

He was actually quite gentle when talking to her, but it wasn't the real him.

"Oh, then I'll wait for you when I go home." Qu Ranran responded smoothly, but suddenly felt that the words were inappropriate, so she immediately changed it to, "Uh, I'll wait for you at your house."

He seemed to be busy, and returned to her a few seconds late, "Yes."

"That's it..."

When Guan Hao came back, he happened to see Qu Ranran sitting in front of the window of the room, staring at the scenery outside the window.

"How long has it been?" he asked aloud.

Qu Ranran turned her head abruptly, saw him, and was about to speak when she saw him go straight into the bathroom.

He is a clean freak. If there is no social gathering at night, the first thing he does when he gets home is to take a shower and change out of the clothes he was wearing outside.

Qu Ranran didn't say anything and could only wait patiently for her.

"Go ahead."

Guan Hao suddenly made a sound, and Qu Ranran was taken aback. She turned her head instinctively, but without warning, she saw the picture of Guan Hao wearing a nightgown naked.

He didn't have any scruples in front of her, and she didn't have to. After two years of marriage, it's not like she hasn't seen his body before. Now, it seems that she is too deliberate to avoid him.

So, she looked at him loudly, and said directly, "I want to ask you a favor."

"En." Guan Hao responded lightly, then walked to the French window, tilted his head and lit a cigarette.

Qu Ranran came behind Guan Hao and calmly narrated the matter. Of course, she didn't mention to him that she was stopped by the police at the airport.

After hearing what Qu Ranran said, Guan Hao just finished smoking that cigarette. After putting the cigarette butt out in the ashtray, he glanced at her and said, "This seems to be the second time you want to ask me for help."

Qu Ranran's eyes widened slightly.You know I begged you one more time?
Guan Hao looked into her shocked eyes and replied, "The last time I was in New York, I only needed to make a phone call to solve the dilemma you were facing at that time."

"You know me...why don't you even answer the phone?" She spat out weakly, thinking that she had cultivated well in front of him, but she didn't even have the courage to say the three words "I need you" in the middle.

He narrowed his eyes and squinted at her, "Don't you know the reason?"

Qu Ranran shook her head in a daze.

Guan Hao snorted and smiled, "Father-in-law passed away, but my wife never thought of notifying me, presumably she doesn't need me."

Qu Ranran lowered her eyes slowly, and said to herself, "We've already had a showdown before, you're with me because I look like the woman you love, and I'm with you because my father plotted to steal from you." There is no real relationship between the two of us for the benefits we got there, how can I let you mourn my father's death as the daughter-in-law of the Qu family?"

Guan Hao's eyes narrowed tighter, his voice was hoarse, "Ran Ran, do you really think that I just used you as a substitute to hurt you in the past two years?"

Qu Ranran silently agreed.

Guan Hao still sneered, but his smile turned cold, "You are really my good wife, Qu Ranran... If I just treat you as a substitute, why should I send you to the hospital to test whether you care about our child? Why do you need to find a reason to postpone your divorce from me, and why do you need to come back tonight?"

"I……"

Qu Ranran froze in place.

However, Guan Hao stretched out his hand to pull Qu Ranran into his arms, put his head against her forehead, and whispered, "For you, do you know how angry I am?"
