Hearing that, Zhou Fu felt helpless again. He had a pretty good idea what had transpired from his boss’s reaction.
Even though he wasn’t there in person, he could visualize the entire unfriendly conversation scene between the father and son.
Afterall, with the boss’s personality…
And that of the little young master from what he had found out.
Boorish and rude?
Emmm, if Zhou Fu could be so bold as to venture a guess. The little young master probably talked back to the boss.
“Um, Sir, the little young master’s temperament really isn’t so bad. He’s still young and immature. And also going through his rebellious period,” said Zhou Fu.
He wasn’t entirely just defending Su Han or trying to make Lu Shao feel better. Truth was, Su Han really wasn’t half bad.
Even Zhou Fu was surprised by that. How could the little young master be so nice growing up with a woman like that? That was practically a miracle. Or just like the saying goes, that things tend to develop in the opposite direction once it reaches an extreme?
Sure, he might be a bit of a loner and tend to keep a distance with others, but wasn’t that just like the boss?
Sure enough, Lu Shao’s look softened a lot after hearing Zhou Fu’s words.
Then, immediately after that, something else occurred to him.
“From your earlier investigation, Su Han’s mother did not treat him well?” ask Lu Shao with a frown.
He did have a lot of faith in the abilities of those who worked for him. As such, he did not question the reports provided to him by Zhou Fu previously.
Seeing Su Han’s reaction from today, he wasn’t so sure anymore.
First of all, Su Han didn’t seem like his days were rough. Also, his relationships with his schoolmates didn’t seem to be as bad as they were suggested in the reports.
In addition, from the way Su Han talked, Lu Shao didn’t feel any resentment from Su Han about his current status, his home, or the woman who had given birth to him.
In fact, he sensed that Su Han was even protective toward her, if he wasn’t mistaken…
Lu Shao didn’t think that Su Han was someone who would show kindness toward those who had hurt him or intended to hurt him in the past.
He wouldn’t. Therefore, neither would Su Han.
Then, how else could he explain Su Han’s attitude?
Zhou Fu, standing next to him, had no idea what was going through his boss’s mind. Hearing Lu Shao’s question, he nodded seriously and said, “Yes, Sir.
“From the information that we have gathered, Ms. Su gave birth to little young master in the bathroom inadvertently. She was going to abandon the little young master, but she wasn’t able to because her neighbors had alerted the police. After that, the little young master was raised on leftovers or food from some kind neighbors. His clothes and other necessities were also given to him from his neighbors or bought from stalls on the streets. The little young master moved out temporarily after he started junior high school and worked at a hot pot restaurant near his school.” Zhou Fu repeated in detail what Lu Shao had not asked about previously. Mainly, he wanted to let his boss know that the little young master had a rough life and it was inevitable that he would turn out a bit stubborn.
What Zhou Fu didn’t know was that his master’s focus was entirely on something else.
“He moved out? For a while?”
“Um, yes. But the little young master got into some sort of conflict with the restaurant owner later on and stopped working there. Ms. Su brought him back home shortly after that.”
As they were planning on how to compensate (get rid of) Su Ran lately, Zhou Fu went back and sent someone to look into Su Ran.
And that’s when he found out that Su Ran had quit her job at the night scene some two months ago and the reason she gave was “she was going to straighten herself out.”
Zhou Fu, much like the owner of the shop, was skeptical about it. But, low and behold, Ms. Su had truly stayed away from that scene during the period of time that followed. And she seemed to have treated the little young master better than she did in the past.
Zhou Fu wasn’t worried about Su Ran, but as a good employee, he still reported the additional information to Lu Shao.
