"Achen, I have something to tell you. Come outside with me."
Han's father, who had been standing silently at the door, said.
Gu Jingchen followed Han's father to the balcony at the end of the corridor.
“Achen, you and Xiaoxi grew up together. You know Xiaoxi’s personality. She’s naive and doesn’t understand anything. We can discuss business matters. Don’t involve Xiaoxi.”
Han's father, who rarely smoked, lit a cigarette, held it between his fingers, and said to Gu Jingchen.
"Uncle Han, I really like Xiaoxi. I'm willing to give up the project. Please believe that my feelings for Xiaoxi are genuine."
Han's father remained silent, scrutinizing Gu Jingchen and assessing the veracity of his words.
"Uncle Han, I know you can't forgive me for what happened six months ago, and I know the mistake I made is unforgivable, but my feelings for Xi'er are genuine, and I can't lose her again."
Gu Jingchen spoke sincerely.
The father remained silent for a long time, thinking that Gu Jingchen was someone he had watched grow up, and at least he wasn't a bad person at heart.
"Don't let us down again. I only have one daughter, Xiaoxi."
When Han's father and Gu Jingchen returned to the ward, they saw Gu Jingchen's parents talking to Han Lingxi, with even Han's mother being pushed aside.
Hearing the door open, Han Lingxi quickly looked to her father for help.
"Ah Chen, how did you take care of Xiao Xi? How could you let Xiao Xi get hurt in Shengyang's company?"
Before Gu Jingchen even entered the door, he heard his mother scolding him.
"Mom, what brings you here? Weren't you traveling abroad?"
Gu Jingchen said helplessly.
"We rushed back as soon as we heard that our daughter-in-law had woken up, but before we could even be happy, we heard that Xiaoxi had been hospitalized again. How could we not come?"
After Gu's mother finished speaking, she turned to Han Lingxi and said something else.
"Xiaoxi, take good care of your injury. Your aunt brought you some very good medicine, it definitely won't leave a scar."
"Uh... thank you, Aunt Gu."
Han Lingxi didn't know what to say. In the original owner's memories, Gu's parents had always treated her very well, and they had long since stopped caring about the company. Their enthusiasm for her was overwhelming for Han Lingxi.
"No need for thanks, we're all family."
Han's mother pouted in dissatisfaction but said nothing. Han's mother and Gu's mother were best friends for many years, and she didn't want to embarrass her.
"Mom and Dad, I'll take care of Xi'er here. You should go home and rest."
"Gu Jingchen said. Gu's mother was about to object when Han Lingxi quickly added."
"Aunt Gu, you rushed back and still worried about me. Thank you for your trouble. You should rest now. Mom and Dad, you go ahead and do your work. I'm fine here."
Han Lingxi finally managed to persuade the four parents to leave and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Gu Jingchen, we don't need you here."
After seeing the four parents off, Han Lingxi didn't plan to keep Gu Jingchen.
"Xi'er, how can I make you believe me? I won't ask Uncle Han for help again. Will that make you believe in my sincerity?"
Upon hearing this, Han Lingxi realized that this would not do; if they did not cooperate, how could she protect Yacheng Company?
"Fine, I believe you. You and Dad can continue working together."
Han Lingxi was discharged from the hospital soon. The first thing she did after being discharged was not to go home, but to go to Shengyang. She had not forgotten how much pain she was in. How could she not get revenge? Gu Jingchen accompanied her into the company.
The four receptionists at the front desk stood in a row and greeted them.
"People with poor eyesight shouldn't work here. Offending a major client is a responsibility no one can afford."
Han Lingxi's words determined the fate of all the receptionists. Han Lingxi didn't pity them at all. How dare they say such things in front of her? It's basic professional ethics not to criticize others. You are free to gossip after get off work, but to say such things in the company is enough to show their capabilities.
She was injured, so it wasn't too much to ask her to use Gu Jingchen to show off her power. Perhaps because of her privileged background, Han Lingxi never considered the possibility of being wronged.
