My dad's words made me feel more and more uncomfortable, and I just talked about what happened between me and Zhou Yanli. When he heard it, his expression changed obviously, but he didn't say anything.
The pressure is all on me now, so my dad doesn’t want to put any more pressure on me, and I understand that.
The meeting lasted only half an hour, and I was reluctant to leave when I left. I wished my dad could come out right now and reunite with us.
But it still doesn't work, I don't have enough evidence to defend him.
After I was released from prison, I felt sad. I had heard that my dad was not doing well, but I didn’t know exactly how bad it was. It wasn’t until I met him that I truly felt it.
The more this happens, the more uncomfortable I feel.
Xiao Li was waiting for me outside. When he saw that I looked strange when I came out, he asked in a low voice, "Miss Shu, is your father okay?"
I shook my head and said nothing.
Xiao Li already understood my answer. He opened the car door for me silently and waited until I got in the car before asking me, "Miss Shu, should we go back or go to your place of work?"
"Go to work." I replied softly.
"yes."
As soon as I arrived at the studio, I found that Zhang Xiuqian was not there, but I had the key here, so I opened the door myself.
I searched around the studio but couldn't find him, nor in the rest room. Finally, in the bathroom, I found a bunch of bloody tissues in the trash can.
I was confused, and an uneasy feeling came over me.
I immediately dialed Zhang Xiuqian's number, and he answered quickly, "It's interesting, I have a friend to make an appointment for dinner. I didn't go to the studio today. Isn't it because I have an art exhibition? You can think about some more paintings these days. Just come out!”
"Where are you? Why is there blood in the bathroom?" I asked hurriedly.
I'm worried about whether there is something wrong with Zhang Xiuqian's health.
But he looked like he didn't care, "It's okay, it's just hemorrhoids. It's such an embarrassing problem, don't worry!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
I was confused by the word "hemorrhoids". Is this really the case? I always feel like something is wrong, but it makes sense.
Since Zhang Xiuqian said this, I naturally did not ask further questions, but began to think about the art exhibition. My qualifications are really too junior, but Zhang Xiuqian didn't care about this, as if he was eager to take me out of the mountain. Same.
I regarded his eagerness as his love for me, a closed disciple, and as a help to my family's current situation, and didn't think much about it at all.
Just as I was conceiving the picture, someone pushed the door open and came in. I turned around and saw Jin Han.
My brows wrinkled subconsciously, and I asked, "What are you here for?"
His engagement to Nan Yu was just two days away. Time was so tight. Shouldn't he be busy with the engagement?
Nan Yu is not me. When I first got married, Jin Han acted like a careless person. Not only did he not arrange the wedding, but he also disappeared, not answering phone calls or text messages.
This time he had to arrange it carefully and pay more attention to it.
"Aren't you open for business here?" Jin Han came to the sofa and sat down happily. His fine suit pants tightened slightly with his movements, revealing the slender lines of his legs.
I am indeed open for business here, and Zhang Xiuqian makes charity donations everywhere. It seems that money is an extraneous thing to him, but he will actively make money and donate after making money.
So no matter who comes here, as long as they come to buy paintings, customize paintings, and do all the painting-related business, he does it.
I am his close disciple, so of course I cannot violate his principle of making money.
I went to pour a glass of water for Jin Han and sat down across from him. I followed Zhang Xiuqian's example and treated him as an ordinary man who came to discuss business. "Well, do you want to buy a painting or a custom order when you come today?"
"I want to buy a painting. I heard it's in the hands of your master." Jin Han picked up the water glass, took a sip, and then said to me lightly.
Zhang Xiuqian does have a lot of paintings in his hands, many of which are orphans, but he collects these paintings not for money, but for his own preferences.
Jin Han came to him to buy a painting. The painting must be of great importance, and Zhang Xiuqian would most likely not be willing to sell it.
Instead of rejecting it outright, I asked, “Which painting are you talking about?”
"Paintings by Gu Kaizhi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty." Jin Han reported his name.
I do know this. Since I decided to study painting with Zhang Xiuqian, I have read a lot of information about various paintings and painters of various generations.
The problem is that one of Zhang Xiuqian’s favorite ancient painting masters is Gu Kaizhi. He has carefully collected Gu Kaizhi’s paintings, so how could he be willing to sell them?
Without even thinking about it, I refused directly on behalf of Zhang Xiuqian, "I'm afraid not, my master won't agree to it, so you can go."
"I know, that's why I need you." A confident smile appeared on Jin Han's face, which meant a lot. "My father likes that painting of Nan Yu very much. I plan to use it as one of her betrothal gifts in the future."
It turned out that it was because of Nan Yu that I went to such great lengths. I smiled slightly and said, "That's useless. You're just wasting your time by coming to me."
"Have you met your dad?" Jin Han suddenly changed the subject to my dad.
I felt uneasy and had a premonition. Sure enough, he continued, "His situation is very bad. You have seen it with your own eyes. You should know in your heart what the worst outcome is if he continues to stay. I can make that possibility happen." Sexual enlargement can also make that possibility disappear, depending on how you do it.”
As soon as my dad was mentioned, I couldn't sit still. It turned out that Jin Han arranged for me to meet my dad just to let me see with my own eyes how bad my dad's current condition was, so that I would be even more worried.
"Jin Han, why on earth are you doing this to me?!" I asked, somewhat broken.
"I just use all the methods I can use to achieve my goal." Facing my collapse, Jin Han looked completely indifferent and just told me in an understatement, "When I say I love you, I can You regard it as a treasure, but you don't cherish it. In this case, I can only use another way to get along with you."
"My dad was wrongly accused. I already have some evidence in my hand. Don't even think about threatening me." I looked at Jin Han's overly indifferent look and calmed down and replied.
"There are so many people who have been wronged in this world. How many people can see the so-called truth?" Jin Han didn't take my words seriously.
He is so confident and sure when dealing with any problem because he has the strength, background, and countless connections and means.
I thought of Zhou Yanli. He once said that he could help me investigate my father's affairs, but if he solved it for me, he hoped that I could marry him.
Instead of being threatened by Jin Han, I might as well choose Zhou Yanli. At least my current boyfriend is Zhou Yanli, and he will never threaten me like this.
