Standing right in front of soone, looking at their wife with such a bare gaze, what man could bear it?
Mo Han shielded Luo Ning with his body, his tone icy, "Take your things and get out! Otherwise, don’t bla for being impolite!"
"Impolite? How will you be impolite?" Zhang Hao said arrogantly, "What can you, a cripple, do to ?"
"I’m standing right here, you damn well try to touch !"
Mo Han’s eyes narrowed slightly, two silver needles pinched between his fingers, ready to strike at any mont.
Suddenly!
Yang ifeng rushed over and slapped Mo Han’s cheek hard.
"Mo Han! What nonsense are you spouting! The one who should get out is you!"
"Get the hell out of here now!"
Even a clay figure has a spark of anger.
Mo Han could no longer maintain his dignity, "Mom, isn’t this too much?"
"Ning’er and I aren’t divorced yet; by na, I’m still your son-in-law!"
"You not helping your son-in-law is one thing, but to hit in front of a stranger! Is that appropriate?"
"Appropriate? What’s inappropriate about it!" Yang ifeng flat out tore off the pretense and said, "Do you think you can still be a son-in-law of the Luo Family?"
"With your poor and shabby look, you can’t even match one-tenth of what Young Master Zhang is!"
"Once Ning’er wakes up, I’ll have her divorce you!"
Zhang Hao smirked smugly, playfully flaunting the watch by shaking his wrist that carried a Jaeger-LeCoultre worth hundreds of thousands.
His expression seed to say, Mo Han, you’re just a loser, what makes you think you can compete with ?
Luo Shanchuan frowned slightly, disliking the way his wife was acting. He wanted to speak up for justice, but thinking about Mo Han’s current situation, he lost the will and just shook his head.
Compared to Mo Han, Zhang Hao had far better prospects. How good it would have been if Ning’er had married Zhang Hao from the start...
"I won’t agree!"
Mo Han shook his head, his gaze resolute.
"Water..."
At this mont, Luo Ning on the hospital bed woke up, uttering the word unconsciously.
Upon hearing this, Mo Han hurried to get a cup of water, but his mother-in-law pushed him away and personally handed a cup of water to Luo Ning’s lips.
After taking a couple of sips, Luo Ning gradually ca to her senses.
She looked around, recalling the terrifying mont from the day before, and said, "How... how did I end up here?"
As she spoke, her gaze swept from her parents to Mo Han and Zhang Hao.
"Mo Han, was it you who saved ?"
"I rember yesterday, that Mr. Cao drugged , and I was almost..."
Drugged?
Wasn’t it an allergic reaction to alcohol?
Yang ifeng and Luo Ning both gave Mo Han a questioning look.
Mo Han’s face was a picture of embarrassnt as he hurriedly explained, "Ah, Ning’er, after receiving your text, I imdiately called the hotel manager, and it was his tily intervention that stopped Cao Xiongbin."
The news of the death of the Cao father and son hadn’t been made public yet, and Mo Han didn’t want Luo Ning and the others to know too much, so he made up a reason.
Upon hearing it wasn’t Mo Han who had saved her, a trace of disappointnt flickered in Luo Ning’s beautiful eyes.
Indeed, what could Mo Han possibly use to save her?
The hotel manager?
A re hotel manager dares to intervene in Mr. Cao’s business?
An evil thought arose in Zhang Hao’s mind, and he snorted, "Mo Han, what are you pretending for?"
"Was it you who saved Luo Ning?"
Mo Han snorted coldly, "If it wasn’t who saved her, was it you who did?"
"Of course!" Zhang Hao nodded proudly, "Mr. Cao backed off for the sake of my face and didn’t lay a hand on Ning’er!"
"What?"
Luo Ning looked puzzled, while Luo Shanchuan and Yang ifeng likewise gazed at Zhang Hao with perplexed eyes.
"Your face?"
Having seen shaless behavior before, Mo Han had never witnessed such brazen effrontery.
Last night, it was clearly he who had rushed into the hotel to rescue Luo Ning, but Zhang Hao was telling bold-faced lies, desperately trying to take credit.
"Yes! It’s because of my face!" Zhang Hao coughed lightly, shalessly asserting, "Yesterday afternoon, I had arranged to et a business partner at the Erald Bright Pavilion Hotel for a collaboration."
"As I waited for my guest in the lobby, I accidentally saw Ning’er going up to a private room with a woman."
"I thought of going up to say hello and followed them. Who would have thought just as I was going up the stairs, I heard Ning’er crying for help from outside the room!"
"I panicked and rushed in, only to clash with Mr. Cao’s bodyguards. See, the bruises on my face are from their beating."
"Luckily, I knew Mr. Cao. I pleaded with him several tis and finally talked him into backing down. Later, I even accompanied him in drinking outside for a good while, and only then did he spare Ning’er."
These words were half true, half false. Zhang Hao did go to the Erald Bright Pavilion Hotel yesterday and indeed saw Luo Ning. He even went to the private room and truly heard Luo Ning’s cries for help, and he did end up being beaten by people.
However, the outco wasn’t the sa as he narrated.
He was beaten out by the underlings before even seeing Cao Xiongbin.
But of course, he wouldn’t admit to that.
Luo Ning glanced at Mo Han, hesitating, "Then he..."
"Probably, while I was drinking with Mr. Cao, this loser and the hotel manager took the opportunity to send you to the hospital, making you misunderstand," Zhang Hao said shalessly.
Luo Shanchuan and Yang ifeng, convinced by his plausible story, were already more than halfway believing it. Both of them looked at Zhang Hao with gratitude, and Yang ifeng warmly took Zhang Hao’s hand, "Ah, Young Master Zhang, how wonderful it would be if you were my son-in-law."
Luo Ning also believed Zhang Hao’s words, and sincerely said, "Brother Zhang, thank you! If it weren’t for you, my life would have been ruined..."
