Nan Chen's eyes flickered, and he quickly turned his head away. He Lingchuan vaguely saw that his eyes were a little moist. He knew that although Nan Chen said he didn't want to see him, he was still looking forward to it.
He Lingchuan smiled, believing that one day, Nan Chen would accept him.
Upon arriving at school, He Lingchuan repeatedly instructed them: "Nanchen and Beichen, you must listen to your teachers at school, okay? If anyone bullies you, you must tell your parents."
Nan Chen had already entered the school when he heard this. He turned around and looked at He Lingchuan with a puzzled expression: "Why would anyone bully us?"
He Lingchuan stood there, stunned, looking at him somewhat awkwardly: "It's just..."
"Did you do something wrong?"
As if remembering something, Nan Chen took the initiative to walk up to He Lingchuan: "Mom has been very unhappy lately. I asked her, but she wouldn't say anything. I know it must be because you made Mom angry again. Why do you always make Mom angry? I don't like you at all."
Nan Chen looked at He Lingchuan seriously and said in a stern tone, "Don't come looking for us anymore. If you like Bei Chen, then just take him away. Anyway, Bei Chen doesn't like Mom anymore."
After angrily saying these words, Nan Chen turned and left, refusing to turn back no matter how much He Lingchuan called him.
He Lingchuan looked helplessly at Nan Chen's departing figure. His good mood from before vanished, and his expression turned heavy.
It seems he still needs to find an opportunity to have a proper talk with Nan Chen, at least to prevent him from continuing to misunderstand him.
He Lingchuan stood at the school gate for a long time, observing the other children to make sure they weren't targeting Nan Chen and Bei Chen before leaving with peace of mind.
His reputation isn't very good right now, and I bet a lot of parents are talking about him at home. Kids love to follow trends, and what He Lingchuan is most worried about is that they'll use this to bully Nan Chen.
He Lingchuan was relieved to see that they were alright.
Once in the car, he hesitated about whether to call Shen Yanxi and tell her to keep a close eye on the two children.
I had just taken out my phone when it rang.
He Lingchuan was stunned. He was very familiar with this ringtone. It was the exclusive ringtone he had set for Shen Yanxi when they had just gotten married. He Lingchuan had specially created a couple's phone number for them.
But Shen Yanxi only used it once. After the divorce, He Lingchuan forgot about it. He never expected that after so long, he would hear the ringtone again.
He Lingchuan paused for a few seconds, then slowly pressed the call button.
A man's voice came from the other end of the line, and he knew who it was without even asking.
He Lingchuan chuckled self-deprecatingly. How could he be so naive as to think that the call was from Shen Yanxi?
He remained silent, listening to the person opposite him criticize him word by word.
"He Lingchuan, I'm planning to marry Xixi. What do you think?"
Upon hearing those two words, He Lingchuan unconsciously tightened his grip on his phone. His emotions remained relatively calm, and he even offered his blessings with a carefree attitude: "You two are a perfect match. If you really get married, I will definitely give you a big red envelope."
"No need for red envelopes."
Zhou Mingyan's cold and distant voice rang out, and he asked He Lingchuan angrily, "What I find irritating right now is that you two are still married."
If Zhou Mingyan hadn't mentioned it, He Lingchuan would have almost forgotten about it.
He then remembered that Shen Yanxi had said before that they were not actually divorced.
He paused, understanding Zhou Mingyan's purpose, and asked him directly, "What do you plan to do?"
"
Zhou Mingyan's mocking voice came through the receiver: "What do you mean, 'what do I plan to do'? Shouldn't it be 'what do you plan to do'? Are you going to keep getting entangled with Xixi like this? He Lingchuan, can't you just let Xixi go?"
He Lingchuan couldn't help but chuckle, his face cold as he smiled: "Zhou Mingyan, are you kidding me? I'm the one who wants a divorce, but it's Shen Yanxi who got the Civil Affairs Bureau to issue a fake certificate. Who's really unwilling to let go of whom?"
He Lingchuan didn't hide anything and said directly to Zhou Mingyan, "Let me tell you, I wish Shen Yanxi would divorce me. Thanks to him, my relationship with Cao Xue is currently at a standstill, and I can't be with Cao Xue even if I want to."
If it weren't for Shen Yanxi's relentless pursuit, he might already be in a relationship with Cao Xue by now.
Hearing the gasp from the other side, He Lingchuan knew that Shen Yanxi must be with Zhou Mingyan.
Zhou Mingyan deliberately called him, wanting Shen Yanxi to hear him say those words.
He Lingchuan didn't have time to beat around the bush with them and said directly to the person next to Zhou Mingyan, "Shen Yanxi, I know you're here. You heard what I said, right? I think you should understand what I mean. Find some time and let's get the divorce certificate done as soon as possible. This time, I hope you can be sincere."
He Lingchuan didn't want things to get too ugly, because if he filed for divorce, it would have a huge impact on his two children.
He's under a lot of scrutiny now, and if he files for divorce, reporters will flock to him.
He didn't want his children to think their father was an irresponsible person, and he didn't want them to be talked about because of him.
After He Lingchuan explained his meaning, he asked Shen Yanxi to find a time: "I'm available anytime. You and Zhou Mingyan can discuss it and we can go together. It just so happens that with our class number, you can get a divorce certificate and then you and Zhou Mingyan can get a marriage certificate."
No sooner had He Lingchuan finished speaking than a furious voice came from the other end: "He Lingchuan, how could you insult me like this? You've gone too far!"
He Lingchuan didn't care what Shen Yanxi said at all and hung up the phone directly.
Just as He Lingchuan was about to go back, he received a call from Gu Chengze.
He thought Gu Chengze was going to try to persuade him to go back, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a noisy commotion coming from the other side.
"Chengze? What happened to you?"
He Lingchuan had a bad feeling. He didn't care about anything else and drove to the laboratory.
A few minutes later, someone finally answered, but it wasn't Gu Chengze; it was one of his colleagues.
"Professor He, do you have time to come back now? The lab is surrounded by people."
"What happened?"
He Lingchuan was puzzled and anxiously inquired about the situation at the laboratory.
“I don’t know what happened. A group of people came to ask for refunds and said that we were deceiving consumers. Now people from the regulatory bureau and the health bureau have come and are demanding that Mr. Gu close the laboratory.”
Hearing this, He Lingchuan took a deep breath: "Where's Chengze? Let me answer the phone."
The person opposite paused, and under He Lingchuan's urging, told the truth: "President Gu was bumped on the shoulder and hit a pillar while trying to stop them from putting up banners. He is currently in an ambulance getting his wound bandaged."
