Chapter 383 Don't want her
Zhao Yong and his group arrived as promised, along with Gao Hao and Song Yanchu.
Upon seeing them, Song Tingnan burst into tears, calling out in a hoarse voice, "Master, Uncle..."
During the days when she was bombarded by rumors and gossip, she appeared strong in public, holding on with her last breath. She could endure the bitterness of being ostracized, isolated, and unjustly accused. But she couldn't bear the thought of her future and her ideals being ruined by such a 'stain,' and her family being implicated in the criticism.
“Silly girl, such a big thing, and you didn’t even tell us. If it weren’t for President Zhao…” Song Yanchu wanted to hit her a few times, but seeing the child’s haggard face, she finally put her hand down.
"Come on, let's go have a good meal with your master. Look how thin you've gotten." Gao Haoran was also heartbroken. This child had really been plagued by villains this year. "Here, take this amulet with you. Your parents went to get it for you."
"Master, do my parents know?" Song Tingnan looked up at Gao Haoran with wet eyes.
“Your parents don’t know the actual situation. He came to me with this amulet, saying that your grandmother appeared to him in a dream. Your grandmother said that you are trapped in a net and the more you struggle, the less you can get out, so she asked us to help you.”
He came to the county town to ask me if I had any news about you. I had just finished a call with A-Chu and told him I was coming to Shanghai on business. He gave me the amulet and said, "Take this with you." Gao Haoran explained the situation.
"That's good. I'll call home later to let them know I'm safe." Song Tingnan was relieved.
Gao Haoran and Song Yanchu exchanged a glance. This child was always so sensible that it broke their hearts. She always put her family first, making it hard to punish her severely. Of course, this was also one of the reasons why they valued her.
The three of them booked a small private room at the hotel. Since the matter wasn't resolved yet, it was safer to discuss it in a private room. The others didn't come with them, giving them space to talk.
Song Yanchu ordered the dishes; having lived together for three years, he knew what Tingnan liked to eat. After Tingnan finished eating, Gao Haoran asked her to recount the whole story from beginning to end, including her suspects and their subsequent scheme.
After listening to Nan's explanation, Song Yanchu said, "Ah Huo, President Zhao has considered everything very thoroughly. Do you have anything to add? If not, just proceed according to his plan."
"And you? What are your plans? This is your old base." Gao Haoran knew Song Yanchu well; despite his many twists and turns and numerous name changes, he still had some influence here.
Song Yanchu looked somber. This was the city where he grew up, and also the demonic place that left him scarred.
"This place was indeed my family's old stronghold, and my family still had some influence here. I never expected my daughter to suffer here."
I came here this time to scout things out first. When Tingnan got into this university, I considered taking her to make connections, and even subtly discussed with Wanli about adding Tingnan to my family genealogy. But after much consideration, I decided against it.”
Gao Haoran asked in surprise, "What happened? You didn't tell me?"
"I've already given up, so there's no need to tell you anymore. As for Wanli, of course I have to discuss such a big matter as snatching his daughter with him."
"He agreed? He was so worried when Nan refused to change her mind, afraid that his daughter wouldn't acknowledge him. I had to talk to him a lot." Gao Haoran couldn't help but ask curiously.
Song Yanchu raised an eyebrow. "He readily agreed. Wanli said that he would wholeheartedly support anything that would benefit Tingnan."
He said he heard that a girl from the south had been studying in Shanghai for five years and might even work and settle down there in the future, which worried him. But as a lame man from the countryside, he couldn't help her. If she were in Shanghai, with family protecting her, he had no reason to object; he'd be overjoyed.
Ting Nan was deeply moved. She never expected that her father would agree to "abandon her" for her sake. It is said that parents plan far ahead, and at this moment she felt this profound love.
