"Did you not find an opportunity, or did you hear she was going to be very successful, so you're afraid?" With no one around, Guan Jibai didn't bother to maintain his persona. He crossed his arms and sneered, "You're afraid of her, but aren't you afraid of me?"
"I... I'm not scared, I just... haven't found the opportunity." Wu Chunfang was terrified at work the whole day. When she saw Guan Jibai coming to the cafeteria to eat, she had already secretly hidden herself.
Afraid of being caught by her.
"That's fine! Since you haven't found the opportunity, I won't force you." Guan Jibai sighed helplessly, "Who asked me to be easy to talk to?"
Wu Chunfang was pleasantly surprised to hear this, but Guan Jibai's words immediately stopped the smile on her face and the joy in her heart.
"I'll talk to your husband. Maybe he'll listen to me."
"Wait!" Wu Chunfang grabbed Guan Jibai's sleeve in fear, "I'll do it. I'll do what I promised."
Guan Jibai's sharp eyes fell on his sleeve that was grabbed, and he said expressionlessly: "Then do it, don't pull my sleeve."
“Yes, yes.”
Wu Chunfang immediately let go, not daring to pause, turned around and hurried back to the art compound.
Guan Jibai stood expressionlessly, leaning against the concrete wall. Suddenly, she felt very bored and uninterested. In her previous life, she had been too lazy to bother with people like Wu Chunfang. She couldn't even talk to them, let alone deal with them.
They are not from the same world at all.
Wu Chunfang, a coward who only bullies the weak and fears the strong, didn't even have the courage to cause trouble for her.
After all, it’s because I have no one to rely on.
In her previous life, she was Guan Wenbai's only daughter and the sole heir to the Guan Group. She was an entertainment industry worker who, if she didn't work hard as a star, would have to return home and inherit billions of dollars. With so many titles, everything she did went smoothly.
It's not like it is now!
Guan Jibai closed his eyes, revealing a fragility that could no longer be concealed.
Guan Wanwan's objection was groundless, but it still hurt her. Last night's conversation had torn the relationship between mother and daughter, which had been repaired with great difficulty, and exposed the inner cracks.
Whether it is the original owner or her current self, there is actually an insurmountable gap between them and Guan Wanwan.
The original owner hated her birth and also resented Shangguan Wanwan.
After she crossed over, she wanted to make amends and treat Guan Wanwan well on behalf of the original owner. So she tried her best to cooperate with Guan Wanwan, even being tactful and using her own little tricks to coax her.
But they are not real mother and daughter after all.
The most important relative in her heart has always been her father.
The argument last night made her suddenly realize that her previous actions might have been a bit wishful thinking.
She missed her dad.
Just like the countless times she had been beaten since she was a child, whenever she felt wronged, sad, or heartbroken, she would go to her father.
I miss my dad so much!
Thinking of this, Guan Jibai simply went to find Guan Wenbo and see his young father! Last time he bullied his father in the billiard hall, he still hadn't apologized to him!
Guan Jibai took a bus to Tieqiao Hutong. In late autumn, the temperature difference between morning and evening was large, and it got dark early. By the time she found the small restaurant her father liked to go to when he was young, her hands and feet were already cold.
The noisy little restaurant is quite large, but there is almost no decoration inside. It is just a shed with a plastic curtain hanging at the door to keep out the wind and rain.
As soon as Guan Jibai entered, the noisy sounds of the game of finger-guessing came to an abrupt end.
Everyone seemed to be paused suddenly, and all looked towards the door.
