Chapter 211: Chapter 211: Qi, Han, Encounter!!!

Gu Wenfan stood in the alley, his handsome, refined face full of anger. Upon seeing her, he couldn’t help but scold:

"Gu Zhi, Mom fainted and was taken to the hospital from anger, and she’s called you so many times. Why won’t you answer!?"

Gu Zhi pulled at her lips, accustomed to the Gu Family’s attitude long ago. The Gu Family had been constantly changing numbers to call her these days, but she hadn’t answered a single call. She didn’t even need to guess what they wanted to say.

"Why should I answer? Do you expect me to go to the hospital to take care of her?"

"You..." Gu Wenfan couldn’t refute her, only responded coldly, "Mom is in such a state because of you. It’s only right for you to visit her. How did the Qin Family raise such an unfilial daughter like you?"

Gu Zhi laughed in anger, "Oh, so you know I was raised by the Qin Family. What does that have to do with the Gu Family?"

Gu Wenfan was at a loss for words again. He never imagined that, despite being an accomplished lawyer skilled in sophistry, he would repeatedly find himself at a disadvantage before Gu Zhi.

His eyes darkened, a hint of coldness flickered beneath them, "So, what? You want to put the Gu Family into ruin, send Father and Big Brother, as well as Third Brother, into jail, and only then will you be satisfied. Do you think Dad being locked up will benefit you somehow!?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Zhi paused slightly. If he hadn’t mentioned it, she might have almost forgotten. Yet she still smiled faintly, "Is that not allowed? How could the judiciary pronounce them not guilty, and you already know they will be convicted? So, it seems their crimes are valid?"

"Gu Zhi, stop talking nonsense." Gu Wenfan was furious, glaring at her coldly and ordered, "Make the Qin Family withdraw the lawsuit, and Father won’t pursue the past matters anymore. Father also agrees to publicly acknowledge your identity and bring you back home."

Gu Zhi looked at him, only finding it laughable, but she couldn’t be bothered to argue with him, "Aren’t you a great lawyer? Then handle the lawsuit yourself. What, are you afraid of losing?"

"You..." Gu Wenfan’s face reached an extremely unpleasant shade, clearly remembering the last time he lost a case, where he was left speechless by the team of lawyers led by Chen Rui.

Remembering that incident, he couldn’t help but sarcastically remark, "I really couldn’t tell you had the ability to persuade Qi Hanyu to help you."

After the incident, he had contacted Gu Zhi’s agency several times, intending to leverage connections to suppress her, preventing her from tarnishing the Gu Family’s name online.

But he hadn’t expected her new company to be Shiyu Film and Television, under Qi Hanyu’s control — a place where networking paths were solidly blocked.

No wonder Chen Rui had helped her with the lawsuit back then.

Gu Wenfan only felt suffocated inside, the loss of that lawsuit being a matter that had always stung him.

Gu Zhi remained silent, merely watched him with a cold sneer, her eyes carrying a hint of dismissive contempt.

Gu Wenfan shot her a cold glance, stepping forward intending to grab her hand coldly, "Come on, you’re going to the hospital to apologize to Mom with me!"

Gu Zhi immediately shook him off, retreating a step, as if avoiding the plague, her gaze now laced with sharpness.

She mocked, "Mr. Gu, don’t lay hands on me. I definitely don’t want to be on the news again, accused of seducing people."

Gu Wenfan’s face froze, turning red and white, as if getting publicly slapped.

He remembered the last incident, with marketing accounts spreading rumors. Though he had considered clarifying, Yiyi had told him it was unnecessary, saying, who hasn’t had some messy gossip online?

And anyway, discussions generate topics, leading to traffic. At the time, he needed a certain level of fame to appear on programs, so he hadn’t explained.

Unexpectedly, she had found evidence.

Gu Wenfan didn’t say anything, moving forward again to grab her, but a large hand forcefully clamped onto his wrist, and he abruptly let go, turning back to see a figure standing behind him.

Qin Ji, dressed in an exquisite suit, his tall and lean build accentuated, stood with a cold, stern expression, unhappily eyeing him:

"Is the Second Young Master Gu trying to lay hands on my sister?"

Gu Wenfan was startled, quickly recognizing who he was, his face extremely unsightly, realizing this was his sister!

He coldly retorted, "I’m talking to my sister. It’s none of your business!"

"Your sister? When have you ever treated her as a sister?" Qin Ji stepped in front of Gu Zhi, warning, "Whatever issues you have with Zhi Zhi, discuss them with me first. If you dare lay a finger on her, I won’t hold back."

Gu Wenfan looked at the two, his eyes nearly popping out of his head. His fierce gaze swept across Gu Zhi before he angrily turned away, storming to his car and slamming the door shut.

Qin Ji coldly watched his retreating figure until his car was out of sight. Then he turned to Gu Zhi, his expression relaxing considerably, "Zhi Zhi, are you okay?"

Gu Zhi shook her head, only feeling amused by the Gu Family’s impotent fury, then looked up at Qin Ji and smiled, "How did you get here so quickly?"

"I was just meeting clients nearby."

Qin Ji glanced at the time, "How much longer until you finish filming?"

"I’ve finished filming. I can wrap up now."

"Alright, then let’s head back directly and pick up your Second Brother on the way."

Gu Zhi nodded. Ever since Qin Yuan joined the national research institute, his schedule had been much more flexible, though reportedly, they hadn’t begun formal enclosed research yet, which meant more free time.

After removing her makeup and changing out of her clothes, she set off with Qin Ji.

After picking up Qin Yuan from the subway station, the two returned to the Qin Family home together.

They happened to run into Qin Zheng, who was returning, and he was delighted to see Gu Zhi, greeting her as the three went upstairs together.

Just as they reached the door, they heard sounds of laughter from inside.

Qin Zheng pushed open the door, noticing a tall figure standing in the living room, with Father Qin and Mrs. Qin happily chatting around him.

And that man, the one they had seen just a few days ago — Qi Han Yu!

Qin Yuan and Qin Ji, who were following behind, were briefly stunned by the scene, then their expressions simultaneously darkened.

Looking over, they also saw Qin Mo sitting in the living room, watching Father Qin and Mrs. Qin entertain the guest with visible displeasure.

Father Qin and Mrs. Qin, hearing the noise, quickly turned to see them, cheerfully saying, "Are all of you back? Come in, come in, Zhi Zhi, greet Xiao Yu."

As she spoke, she turned to the others, "Let me introduce, this is Zhi Zhi’s friend, who appeared on a variety show with her last time and took good care of her. His name is Han Yu. These are Zhi Zhi’s brothers, and you..."

She hadn’t finished her introduction when Qin Zheng interrupted unpleasantly, "We’ve met and know each other already."

Mrs. Qin paused, "You’ve met? When?"

"The night of Zhi Zhi’s birthday," Qin Zheng couldn’t resist tattling, "He lives right across from Zhi Zhi, we’ve bumped into each other several times, how could we not know each other!?"

But Mrs. Qin did not get it, on the contrary, felt even more reassured, "So you live across the hall? That’s wonderful, you can look out for each other, and I can feel more at ease."

Qin Zheng and others: ?

What are you reassured about, it’s precisely because he lives across the hall that we can’t be reassured!
