After parting with Yuan Meng and her family, they arrived at the number seven.
Gu Weiwei got out of the car and went to find Lei Ning; she asked her to take care of the kidnappers first and deal with them after she spoke with Fu Hanzheng.
“Yes, Madam.” Lei Ning nodded and brought the men out of the car.
Seeing her leaving with her men and the kidnappers, Gu Weiwei and Mrs. Fu brought the two children into the house.
Fu Hanzheng had been in the study on the second floor when he heard the noise.
“Didn’t you say…” He approached and before he finished the words, he lifted the fringe that was resting on her forehead and his expression sank when he saw the wound. “How did it happen?”
Gu Weiwei slapped away his hands and brushed her fringe.
She had concealed it so well and yet he saw it the moment he came over. Was it that obvious?
“It’s just a little scratch.”
Fu Hanzheng reached out for her hand and showed it to her. “Did you get this at the same time too?”
Gu Weiwei touched her ears guiltily. Her voice sounded hoarse because of the cold.
“Get someone to make some food for the two children, they are hungry.”
Fu Hanzheng threw a look at the kitchen. “Is lunch ready?”
A servant came out and answered, “It’s almost done, making food for the children.”
Knowing that they were almost home, he had asked the servants to get lunch ready.
Fu Hanzheng looked thoughtful. “There is still some time before lunch, is that enough time for you to tell me the truth?”
Gu Weiwei threw a look at Mrs. Fu and the two energetic children who had just woken up.
It was not a good time to talk here, so she said, “You’re right, a small problem occured, so let’s talk in the study.”
Fu Hanzheng threw a look at the nervous elders in the living room and led her upstairs.
When they went into the study, he poured her a cup of water and asked, “A small problem? What problem?”
Gu Weiwei took a sip of water to moisten her throat and said in a relaxed tone, “I ran into Gu Siting’s men on the way back, but everyone is fine. They have been caught and Lei Ning has taken them into interrogation.”
Hearing her words, Fu Hanzheng looked cold.
So that’s why Lei Ning and Yuan Meng did not pick up the phone and it took her a long time before the call went through.
That must have been after the accident.
“Why didn’t you tell me over the phone?”
“Thanks to you arranging Lei Ning and Yuan Meng to protect me, those men did not get what they wanted and we were able to return safe and sound.” Gu Weiwei ignored the incident of her being taken away and focused upon the results, praising his foresight.
Fu Hanzheng stared at the woman who was speaking and made a call to Lei Ning.
“Come to the study within ten minutes.”
He did not quite believe what she said.
So he needed an honest person to tell him what had happened.
“I told you everything, why did you call Lei Ning?” Gu Weiwei said unhappily.
“Did you tell me how you got the wound?” Fu Hanzheng asked.
He knew that she was hiding something important from him.
Since she was not telling the truth, he had to ask Lei Ning to come and report the situation.
“I did,” Gu Weiwei said.
But she did not say that it was because of the accident.
What was done was done and they were all here in one piece, what was the point of getting to the bottom of it?
