Gu Xingren's expressions turned ashen when she heard Xu Nuan's words. Call the police? Has this girl gone insane?
" Xu Nuan! What rubbish are you spouting? You want to call the police and want to defame your sister? How dare you even think about something so ridiculous?" Lin Ran burst out in anger hearing Xu Nuan's words.
Gu Xingren also panicked and stuttered, " Xu Nuan, what nonsense are you saying? When did I push you? I left early for some urgent work and asked you to take a taxi. How is that my fault that you got into an accident? Was it me who was trying to walk in high heels when you can't even stand in them?"
Xu Nuan raised her brows as she looked at Xingren with interest. This girl knows how to lie very well.
According to Xu Nuan's memories, on the day of the accident, she and Xingren went shopping. Of course, that's what everyone thinks.
In reality, it was Gu Xingren who was shopping while Xu Nuan was there to carry her shopping bags. However, to show it to her parents, Gu Xingren took Xu Nuan to a shoe store in the mall.
She chose high pointed heels which Xu Nuan clearly couldn't wear. Despite her rejecting to wear them, she encouraged her or more specifically forced her to wear those shoes by using the emotional blackmail and saying that it's a gift from her 'sister'.
Xu Nuan who has always yearned for the familial love and sisterly bond, that emotional fool wore those uncomfortable high heels and was uncomfortable all the time while Gu Xingren roamed around the mall freely and was enjoying Xu Nuan tripping and slipping at places.
Seeing that she was trying to put all the blame on those heels, Xu Nuan could see that she has the ability to rise as a potential bit*h.
Gu Zhang who was standing there silently, finally spoke, " Xu Nuan, I understand that you're a young girl and have a desire to look beautiful. You can wear heels but at least be aware of your standard. When you can't carry such shoes then why did you wear them?"
" And even if you wore them, how can you blame Xingren for your accident? Just because she bought you those shoes? You're ridiculous." He spat those words irritatingly.
.
He wasn't liking the way Xu Nuan was acting at this moment. How can she cut his words in front of Mr. Han?
Xu Nuan didn't say anything all this while and just listened to their nagging and the way they were trying to protect their darling daughter.
" Hmm...you think I am falsely accusing her? Then let's call the police. Why are you getting so hyped up? If she is innocent then it will be proved once the police come. Why are you getting panicked over it?" She said casually while reaching out to pick up a glass of water from the side table.
Han Zihao, who was standing near her bed, didn't say anything and simply picked up a glass of water and passed it to her.
"-_-"
She was speechless seeing how attentive this man is. Even Xu Nuan's parents didn't notice that she was having difficulty in getting that glass of water.
But he noticed it right away. She even forgot for a while that he was standing there because his presence is almost nothing.
He was standing against the wall lazily with one hand in his pant's pocket. He was just listening to the whole argument and didn't even comment on it.
Even his secretary was making comments sometimes and showing some reaction at least, but he was quietly observing everyone.
" Ah, Thanks." She took the glass from his hand and said in a low voice.
"-_-"
But what surprised her was, he didn't even look up at her and just stood against the wall again.
Does he hate to talk to people that much?
…
She took a sip of water when she heard Lin Ran's piercing voice.
" Xu Nuan, stop your rubbish. No one is calling the police here. I am sure that you're just spouting nonsense. There is no need to call the police for this stupid reason.".
" What do other people think if you complain against your sister?"
Xu Nuan frowned and was about to place the glass back when a hand came in front of her.
She was startled because that man took the glass from her hand and placed it back on the side table and just like that, he stood against the wall again as nothing happened.
Even his secretary was in trance seeing him being so active.
Feng Sheng was speechless because it was the first time that he had seen him helping someone and that too a woman.
From his high school days to university time, he has dated no one. He knows about Han Zihao everything because Han Zihao's grandfather has made him find out about his past relationships and found out that the young master of the Han family is as clean as a white sheet.
It was all good when he was young but now when he has turned 28 this year, his family is getting worried about him. He has no girlfriend, nor does he like anyone. Is he going to be single for his whole life?
That's why the secretary was surprised because he has never seen him flirting with any woman nor has he taken fancy to anyone. How come he is acting so close to this woman who insulted him?
.
Is he a kind of masochist that he suddenly got interested in her just because she insulted him?
Han Zihao who was unaware of his secretary's wild thoughts was observing the whole situation from the side.
Xu Nuan ignored everything and focused on Gu Xingren and turned to Lin Ran as her lips curled up in a evil smile, " Mrs. Gu, people will only say that the fake princess of Gu family tried to kill the real heiress to take her place."
" Xu Nuan, shut the hell up!!" Gu Xingren shouted in anger when she heard Xu her provocative words.
