Once Upon A One Night Stand

Chapter 74

As an old saying went, the father knew his daughter best, looking at Shu Tian's expression at this time,

Shu Changlei had already known that she might have seen Fan Ming. When their eyes met, both of

them were tacit. After a long time, Shu Changlei finally compromised. "Come with me to the room."

...

Without Ye Lihua present, it was much easier for the father and daughter to speak without any

scruples. After all, this incident was not honorable back then, which was a scar on the heart of the

whole family. It took Ye Lihua a long time to accept it. They didn't want Ye Lihua to think about it again.

"Dad, you know Fan Ming, don't you?" Just like Shu Changlei knew her, she knew Shu Changlei very

well. In her memory, her father had never been a person whose emotion fluctuated wildly, but just now,

he couldn't even hold the glass steadily, which was obviously abnormal.

Shu Changlei didn't deny it. "Yes."

Shu Tian asked further, "Do you know that he was hired by Baoyou Group to be the chief legal adviser

after he lost your lawsuit that year?"

When she asked this question, she was staring into Shu Changlei's eyes. She did not find any surprise

or shock in his pair of experienced eyes.

So it meant that Shu Changlei had already known it.

Shu Changlei was silent for a few seconds and nodded. "I know."

"Dad, isn't that strange? Fan Ming used to be your lawyer and pursued the lawsuit against Baoyou

Group which had sparked rumors back then. However, Baoyou Group hired him again. If there wasn't

something fishy inside, Baoyou Group was shooting themselves in the foot!"

Shu Changlei frowned as if he didn't want to talk about the lawsuit. "These things are over. The lawsuit

has already come to an end. It's useless for you to think too much now."

"Dad!" Shu Changlei's evasive attitude surprised Shu Tian and she looked at him in disbelief.

Shu Changlei didn't want to talk to her anymore and waved his hand. "Okay, you can go out if there's

nothing else. I'll get changed. Don't interfere with it anymore."

"Why?"

"Leave the adult problems to the adults. It's none of your business." After that, Shu Changlei turned

around and walked out of the room.

Shu Tian sat by the bed and did not move. After a long time, she stood up and stopped at the door.

"Even if you don't want to tell me, I will definitely figure out what happened to this lawsuit at that time!"

When the door closed, Shu Changlei closed his eyes and sighed deeply. Everything that happened a

few years ago flashed before his eyes, and his eyes were moist.

...

Before she came out of the house, Ye Lihua brought her a lot of food such as the sauce that Ye Lihua

made herself. There was also a lot of daily necessities. Li Han just was out of work and came to pick

her up outside the neighborhood.

When she got into the car, Shu Tian was not in a good mood. She was very depressed and sat in the

passenger seat without saying a word.

The atmosphere in the car was a little abnormal. When waiting for the traffic light, Li Han looked at the

beef sauce in the back seat and rarely took the initiative to find a topic. "Did your parents make it?"

Shu Tian was stunned for a few seconds before she realized his words and nodded. "Yes."

Afraid that she didn't get used to the food outside, her mother tried her best to bring her some home-

made food. Thinking of this, Shu Tian's chest ached again.

Li Han noticed it but did not know how to comfort her. Afraid that he would bring up another topic that

might make her more upset, he simply did not say anything and let her calm down first.

The car drove all the way to Imperial Garden. When they drove to the passing, Li Han suddenly caught

a glimpse of a shop with a long line in front of it. It was a bakery.

He didn't have a sweet tooth so he didn't know anything about deserts. Shu Tian, however, liked

sweets very much.

Looking ahead of the road, the man turned on the left turn signal and parked the car on the side of the

road. As he unbuckled his seat belt, he said to her, "I'm going to buy something."

Shu Tian didn't think much. "You go."

After getting out of the car, Li Han walked to the end of the line with his wallet in his hand. He was

dressed in a formal suit and had an unusual aura, which immediately attracted a lot of attention from

customers, especially those of women.

There were even a few young girls whispering, "Wow, look at that man at the back. He's so handsome.

Is he a star?"

"No, but he's really handsome."

"Yes, I really want to ask for his phone number!"

"Forget it. He looks unapproachable..."

All these words came to Li Han's ears, but he ignored them and continued to wait with a straight face,

not feeling uncomfortable because of the attention of others.

After standing there for nearly 20 minutes, it was finally his turn.

A transparent cabinet was displayed at the shop window. Inside, there were all kinds of small cakes, all

kinds of shapes and tastes.

"Hello, sir. May I help you?"

Li Han glanced around and didn't know which one was delicious. He simply picked the cake according

to its appearance. "This, this, and this..."

After ordering so many ones, he finally nodded. "Wrap them up for me."

The shop assistant was surprised.

Other customers were silent with surprise.

"Sir, are you sure you want them all?"

Li Han raised his eyebrows. "Sure."

"Okay, please wait a moment." The shop assistant, a woman in her early twenties was so excited that

her hands were shaking while packing the cakes up when she saw such a handsome man buying so

many cakes.

In the end, the receipt was three palms long! Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Li Han got into the car with three bags of cakes and threw them into Shu Tian's arms without blinking.

"For you."

Shu Tian came back to her senses and looked down. They were from a very famous bakery in the city.

She saw a lot of people forward the post about it in her Wechat Moments, but... he bought so much for

her?

"I can't eat them all..."

"It's okay. You can take one bite of each flavor."

She was speechless for his extravagance.

Shu Tian, however, was very moved by his deed. After all, it had been a while since he got out of the

car. It was rare for Li Han to be so patient to do something boring.

Shu Tian tightened the bags in her arms. "Thank you."

Li Han tightened his grip on the steering wheel and smiled. "Don't mention it."

"Actually, I'm in a bad mood because of my father. He seems to have something to hide from me. I

don't know why."

"What is it?"

Shu Tian hesitated for a few seconds. Instead of answering him directly, she asked, "Li Han, have you

heard of a lawyer named Fan Ming?"

The man looked over slightly. "Why did you ask this?"

"He was in charge of my father's case back then, and he lost the case." Shu Tian didn't mention the

deeper reason because there were some things that remained to be checked.

"Fan Ming is desperately skilled at dealing with lawsuits. If you met him, you should be careful." The

car turned and drove into the main road. The man's steady voice pierced through her ears.

Shu Tian nodded. "I know."

This Fan Ming was definitely hard to deal with. If there was something fishy about Shu Changlei's case

back then, maybe it was god's will that she had the chance to get in touch with Fan Ming now.
