But Han Sheng couldn't say it out loud, so he tightened his lips and nodded after a few seconds: "In this regard, you are very similar to that kid, with the same persistence."

"Where is Han Xiao?" Xia Taozhi asked, "When...will he come back?"

Han Sheng did not answer and continued to look out the window: "Go and have a rest and prepare. There will be a press dinner in three days. You and I will attend it together."

Xia Taozhi did not ask further: "Okay."

She turned away.

Returning to Fuhai Garden, I was greeted by my father’s concern.

Xia Mingcheng made delicious food again today and tried various tricks to make his daughter happy.

Even if Xia Taozhi is in a bad mood, she will still cheer up and smile when she comes to her father: "I'm fine, Dad."

"How could it be okay..." Xia Mingcheng muttered.

"It's really okay."

"Then you eat these snacks first. They are made of milk and taste the way you like. By the way, your Aunt Lian also said she would come to visit you tomorrow. Are you at home?"

"Yeah." She nodded with a smile.

After finishing her snack, she returned to her room and fell asleep.

On days like this, except for necessary work and matters with the Han family, she basically spent the rest of the time in this state.She didn't want to drink or be anesthetized by alcohol, so all she could choose was to sleep.

When you wake up, it's a new day.

She reached out and touched the other side of the bed, which was empty.

I got up, washed, dressed, ate, and worked on my creation for a while. At lunch time, Aunt Lian arrived.

"Aunt Lian." When she saw Xia Lian, she couldn't help but her eyes turned red.

Xia Lian hugged her tightly: "Good boy, Aunt Lian is here to see you..."

In an instant, tears burst out.Xia Taozhi actually didn't understand why she was crying like this. It seemed that when she smelled the familiar scent of the other person, there was a kind of tenderness belonging to a mother, which made her instantly drop all her defenses, exposing only the softest and most vulnerable part.

After crying for a while, she smiled and wiped the corners of her eyes: "It's rare for you to come see me. We shouldn't cry like this. Aunt Lian, let's have lunch together."

"Okay, otherwise what do you think I'm doing here? I'm just here to get some food."

Aunt Lian said half-jokingly.

In the restaurant, Xia Mingcheng had already asked his aunt to set up lunch. The three of them sat down and chatted while eating. The warm atmosphere of the family gradually infected her, and this warmth seemed to give her new courage.

"During this period, Aunt Lian also helped you pay attention to the Han family's properties. Later, I found out that you didn't get a cent from these properties, so I ignored them."

Aunt Lian snorted coldly, "It's too much to bully our Taotao like this and not take anything with you even if we share things with you!"

Xia Taozhi couldn't laugh or cry: "It doesn't matter to me. It's not mine in the first place. I don't want it."

"That's your husband's thing. Let's not say whether it's time to divide it now. Now that I've come up with this idea, how can I exclude you from it? And... they have such wonderful ideas, thinking that after they get the Han family's property, they will Can you sit back and relax? Huh, dreaming!"

There was a touch of sarcasm on Aunt Lian's lips, "The Han family's industry is huge, and in the eyes of others, it is just a piece of fat. Mr. Han had the means and ability before, and the Han family's industry was prosperous. At that time, some people started to take advantage of the Han family. , but Mr. Han’s ability is there, who dares to act rashly?”

"Later, Mr. Han chose Han Xiao as his heir. As you know, in Han Xiao's hands, the industry expanded a lot in a short period of time."

Xia Taozhi nodded silently.

Han Xiao's ability is superior to that of Mr. Han.

In addition to Hanjia Industry and Hanhai Law Firm, he also has other unknown assets and projects.That mysterious underground office area is enough to prove his strength.

"So, when this industry is concentrated in Han Xiao's hands, it can truly realize its value. Once separated, the connection between the various industries will be severed. If there were other people in the father's generation who could use it, the old man I won’t give all my hopes to Han Xiao.”

Aunt Lian sighed as she spoke, "They don't understand this and always want to get a piece of the pie. This is great... The Han family's industry, which has attracted so much attention, will probably be destroyed."

Xia Taozhi's eyes were clear: "That is also their own choice."

"You don't worry about them."

"No." She shook her head, "I'm still too busy with my own affairs, so I don't have time to worry about this..."

After seeing the documents left by Han Xiao, she already understood.

It turned out that this man had been prepared from the beginning.

If he is not here, the Han family's property is destined to be unprotected. No matter how hard she tries to stand in front of him, she cannot change the outcome.

Aunt Lian held her hand tightly: "Don't be sad. No matter what happens, you still have Aunt Lian by your side."

"Thank you, Aunt Lian."

Xia Lian stayed until evening before leaving, declining Xia Taozhi's invitation to have her dinner. She got into the car, and the friendly smile she had just moments ago disappeared.

"Is she still on the phone?" Xia Lian asked coldly.

"Yes, ma'am, I've been beating every day from yesterday to today."

"How's the matter that I asked you to investigate?"

"Overseas agencies are already conducting in-depth investigations, and the results will be available soon. Madam, just wait patiently for a while."

Xia Lian sneered: "If you dare to play tricks under my nose, I want to see what tricks you want to play."

"By the way, madam, the youngest lady of the Gui family has been sent away. She is said to be... mentally insane and needs to go to other places for medical treatment."

"Haha, it's indeed a trick they pulled off." Xia Lian closed her eyes, "Does this matter have anything to do with her?"

"It hasn't been found out yet. The Han family had kept the incident at the dock a secret, and there was no news at all, so... our progress here has been a bit slow."

"The Han family can hold off for a while. I believe Han Xiao will not do anything to hurt Taotao. The most important thing is the Gui family. The loss of Gui Susu is nothing to them. What can really make them happy?" Their injuries haven’t appeared yet.”

She said to herself, looking out the car window.

After a while, she returned to the villa.

But there was already someone waiting outside the door - Gui Yunrong.

Gui Yunrong smiled slightly: "Aunt Lian, you didn't answer my call. I felt worried, so I had to come to see you myself. I don't know...if I did something wrong to make you so cold to me."

As she spoke, her original smile was also a little aggrieved.

Xia Lian glanced at her: "No, it's just that there have been a lot of things recently."

"That's good. By the way, I specially found fresh king crabs. The quality is excellent. I didn't even give them to my parents. I just gave them to Aunt Lian to share. Please don't turn me away again. Outside."

Gui Yunrong didn't seem to notice Xia Lian's indifference, and still smiled to herself.
