Chapter 49
Her words were blocked by that woman's voice, and she felt a hand was gripping her throat, which
made her feel sore and hurt. Shu Tian opened her mouth but could not make a sound. She did not
know what to say.
She even took her phone away from her ear and glanced at the number on the screen to see if she had
dialed the wrong number.
It's indeed his number.
"Hello?" The woman asked again impatiently.
Shu Tian came back to her senses and hung up the phone in a hurry.
She was standing in the huge living room alone. The French window next to the sofa was open, and
the night wind blew in. Shu Tian couldn't help but tremble slightly.
The house was so quiet that she could hear the movement of the watch needle, and her ears were
filled with the soft voice of that woman.
Was this so-called social engagements?
Was this the way to socialize?
...
At the same time, Li Han was walking out of the bathroom of the VIP room in Hongding Club.
The man was wearing a black shirt, and his two unbuttoned crystal buttons were sparkling like
diamonds under the dim light, revealing his fair and sexy collarbone. His straight and slender legs
looked even more powerful under his suit pants. Half of his handsome face was hidden in the shadow
of the light, which made him look gloomy but charming.
"Young Master Li, someone called you just now. I saw you weren't there, so... I answered it for you."
The woman sitting at the side had long wavy hair and exquisite makeup on her face. The black
buttocks dress was tightly wrapped around her butt, revealing her great shape.
Li Han seemed to be annoyed, and that sexy woman looked unhappy either. "Who let you take it?"
The woman panicked. "I..."
Pei Yu waved at her. "Feifei, you've been working in Hongding Club for so long. How come you not
know this rule?"
"Young Master Pei, I was in a hurry and... it was my fault. I'm sorry."
"All right, you can go out." Pei Yu waved his hand and said nothing in the end.
After all, Feifei had been working with him since the founding of the club. Although she was just a
barmaid, she did her job with due diligence.
Li Han swiped the phone screen open, and saw the name "Shu Tian" in the recent call history.
The man frowned. It was her?
Subconsciously, he wanted to call back, but he still stopped when he pressed it.
Thinking of what happened in the office today, and the way she gave that video to Liu Lifang, Li Han
frowned, threw the phone on the table, and picked up the glass, drinking silently.
Ling Junze and Pei Yu tipped the wink at each other. Pei Yu didn't have the guts to step forward and
say something to Li Han, for he knew that Li would not listen to him. Pei Yu shrugged and left the
chance to Ling Junze.
The latter sat next to the man and looked at him who was emitting a cold aura. Ling Junze asked
tentatively, "Did you quarrel with your 'little pet'?"
Li Han paused as he was going to drink the wine. His resolute face was filled with irritation and his tone
was unkind. "When must my emotions have something to do with her?"
Ling Junze knew that he had guessed correctly and nerved himself to ask, "Because of what?"
Li Han gulped down another glass of wine, acting as if he didn't care about this. The light yellow liquid
flowed into his throat, and his sculptured features were even more outstanding in the dim light. His thin
lips, which were tightly pressed, made him seem even more ruthless.
"She didn't get over her ex-husband." It was a little awkward for him to discuss her with others.
In fact, a few people had heard about most of Shu Tian's things. Li Han, Pei Yu, Ling Junze, and Ji
Chuanyi had a chat group of four people. Shu Tian worked in the Hanyi Law Office, so naturally, Ji
Chuanyi knew everything, so did them.
"What's so good about that girl? Look at you, so into her." It was really not Li Han's style to come out in
the middle of the night to get drunk.
Except for Chujing, none of them had ever seen he was affected to this extent.
Hearing this, Li Han gently curled his lips and smiled at himself. "Right, what's good about her?"
He also wanted to know that a girl, who was eight years younger than him, made him so impulsive.
"Come on! There are all kinds of women in Pei Yu's club here. You can try another one. If someone
else can do it..." Before Ling Junze could finish speaking, he was stopped by Li Han's sharp eyes.
The corner of his lips twitched. "Well, forget it. I didn't say anything just now."
In fact, Ling Junze also felt sorry for Li Han. The obstacles on him actually came from his heart. What
happened in the past made this seemingly-perfect man have the most painful stroke, which was like a
scar that would not disappear easily.
He knew it better than anyone else.
Ling Junze clinked the glass with Li Han and drank it. "Han, if you really like her, just give it a shot. It's
just about love. As long as you keep it under control, there's nothing wrong with it."
"Like her?" Li Han looked down at the light yellow liquid in the glass with a frustrated face. "It's hard for
me to like someone."
Ling Junze was stunned and frowned. "Maybe you misunderstood her. Although I haven't seen that girl
often, she doesn't look like the woman who wasn't loyal to a relationship."
"She's not happy when I'm targeting her ex-husband." Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken that video.
Whether it was family affection or love, she still had feelings for the Tang Family.
He could accept it even when he was called a pervert, but the truth was that he couldn't accept that his
woman had any feelings for her ex-husband's family. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Even if it was just sympathy.
...
After a round of drinking, it was almost two o'clock in the morning.
The three of them drank a lot, and the bottle alone occupied one-third of the table.
Pei Yu asked Hongding Club's substitute driver to drive the two of them home, while he lived upstairs.
Before Li Han left, Ling Junze patted him on the shoulder and said, "Think about it again. Don't be too
arbitrary..."
Li Han took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and waited for the driver at the entrance of the club.
He got on with his slender legs and his voice sounded clear under the alcohol. "To Imperial Garden."
The driver responded. Just as he started the car, someone suddenly grabbed the window. "Young
Master Li!"
Li Han in the back seat slightly raised his eyelids and looked at the woman who had chased out. She
was the one who had just taken his phone call in the private room, but he had forgotten her name, not
even her appearance.
"Young Master Li, you left your lighter." The woman reached out and handed over the expensive lighter.
Her thin arms reached through the crack of the window and she presented it in front of him.
Li Han didn't take it. He took a puff of his cigarette and puffed it out again. There was a slight smile on
his mouth, but it looked so fake. "I don't like people touching my things. You can keep it."
After that, he didn't even look at the woman and ordered the driver, "Let's go."
The Bentley sped out, leaving the woman standing there regretfully stomping her feet.
She had heard that Pei Yu had a very powerful friend in the law domain. It was not usual for her to
come here today. She just wanted to seize the opportunity, and it was worth sleeping with such a man
for a night. She never thought that he would ignore her.
She thought that Pei Yu was the only one who was rich but upright, but she didn't expect Li Han to be
more serious.
Li Han preserved his moral integrity so much that she even wanted to know what kind of woman could
sleep with him.
Perhaps such a man could only be looked up to.
