Chapter 144: You're a Smart Person

was more than that. Later, two media outlets friendly with us subtly warned me against doing so, saying someone powerful was protecting the He family. They wouldn't elaborate on the specifics.""Alrig...The sushi on the table looked delicious and tempting, but neither He Hanchuan nor Jiang Qingran had any appetite.

He chuckled, but there wasn't a trace of mirth in his eyes. "Then I can only apologize. Lin Tiantian is an employee of my Dreamland Club, and I can't just hand her over to an elderly man as his partner."

"Hanchuan ge, is this a threat" Jiang Qingran forced a smile, her whole body tense.

He said calmly, “I'm just stating the facts.”

Their conversation felt familiar, yet the roles were reversed.

Jiang Qingran's body stiffened for a moment, then she curved her lips and said in a soft voice, clenching her fists gently: "I came to you today about Lin Tiantian because elders asked me to, it's not that I absolutely have to. But if Hanchuan doesn't agree, I'll be heartbroken, and who knows, I might even sue Xiangwan to vent my anger."

He's gaze deepened, then he sat down.

"Han Chuan is a smart person, he should know how to make choices." Jiang Qingran's face was back to normal as she said calmly.

"Is that so" He Hanchuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

Jiang Qingran smiled and said, “At the very least, I think you're a smart person.”

"That disappointed you." He Hanchuan glanced at her coolly, "I now give you two choices: one, you take Lin Tiantian away, and I treat Xiang Wan's leg. Two, you sue Xiang Wan, and I expose Mr. Lin's romantic affairs online."

Jiang Qingran's body stiffened for a moment, but there was still a faint smile on her lips, "If I wanted to take Lin Tiaottia away, would I even agree to let Xiang Wan treat her leg"

"That's impossible." He Hanchuan said.

Jiang Qingran's smile couldn't hold any longer, "Cold River brother really thinks my grandfather is someone who values reputation"

"Don't care about it" He Hanchuan smiled and stood up, "That's good."

After finishing speaking, he turned and left.

Jiang Qingran watched his resolute back, her expression changing, and finally she bit her lip and called out: "Hanchuan ge!"

He strode on without stopping, nor did he respond.

"Miss, what are we going to do" The maid anxiously said as He Hanchuan was about to reach the door, "If your grandfather and Miss Lin's affair were to be exposed, it wouldn't just be bad for the Lin family, it would also damage the Jiang family's reputation!"

Jiang Qingran's eyes flashed with a sinister glint, and she softly said, "Don't rush."

She watched as He Hanchuan, who had already reached the door and was about to push it open, paused for a moment. "…No matter what, Xiang Wan was my friend before. I'm naturally happy that her leg can be cured."

"You're a smart person." He Hanchuan stopped walking, but didn't turn around, returning her evaluation to her.

Jiang Qingran tightened her grip on the armrest of her wheelchair and smiled, "Since it's settled, why don't you join me for a meal, Hanchuan It would be a waste to have ordered so much and not eat it."

"Our tastes are different, I can't finish this. You eat slowly, don't bother me." He Hanchuan didn't even glance at her as he pushed open the door and walked away.

Jiang Qingran looked at the empty doorway, her red lips slightly parted, trembling, then lowered her head, a trace of pain and bitterness flashing in her eyes.

After leaving the Japanese restaurant, He Hanchuan hailed a taxi and went to Liu's noodle shop.

When he entered the noodle shop, Auntie Liu was facing away from him, clearing the table. "What would you like to eat Just a moment, I'll be right with you..."

Aunt Liu turned around, and when she saw He Hanchuan, the smile on her round face froze. She put the broom and dustpan aside. "The things from my little shop probably aren't good enough for Mr. He to eat, so it's best not to waste them."

"Long time no see, Liu Shuren," said He Hanchuan.

"Of course!" Aunt Liu smiled, speaking with a veiled threat, "You're the big boss of He Group, esteemed Mr. He, and I'm just a small noodle shop owner. We are..."

She pointed up at the sky and then down at the ground, “One heaven, one earth, it’s normal not to see each other! Like you coming here today, us meeting, that’s abnormal. I feel flustered!”

"Do you still have the Three Fresh Noodles Please trouble Auntie Liu to make me one," He Hanchuan slightly lowered his gaze and pulled a chair to sit down.

“Even I wouldn’t dare to do that for you!” Liu Shn chuckled, “If you were to accidentally eat a hair or a fly in the noodles, and you weren't happy about it, you could shut down my shop! It wouldn’t be worth earning just a few dollars. What do you think”

He gently tapped the table twice. "I see there are no hairs or flies in the noodles, you should pluck a few hairs and catch a few flies to put in."

“General He, you’re joking! How could I possibly” Auntie Liu picked up her broom again and swept the already clean floor. “If you were to find out, and break one of my arms or legs, where would I go to seek justice”

He raised an eyebrow slightly. "If I hadn't been able to notice, wouldn't you have gone through with it"

Liu Shn stopped sweeping, leaning on the broom and looking at him, she smiled twice.

"Dr. Lu Yancen is your nephew, isn't he" Liu's words were dripping with sarcasm. The two of them had been going around in circles for so long, and He Hanchuan decided to be direct.

"It's my nephew, that's true." Aunt Liu said. "But he has a strong temper and we don't get along well. If he doesn't treat Miss Jiang's leg, you coming to me won't help either."

"So if he refuses to treat Xiangwan's leg, would it be useful for me to come find you"

Hearing this, Liu's wife paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "You don't have to trouble yourself with this. My nephew just returned from the United States a few days ago, and I've already asked him to go see Wanwan for free. He must cure Wanwan's leg."

She smiled again, "Our little Late is a bit grumpy and always has strong feelings. She doesn't like owing favors to others. If you really have good intentions, then I would trouble you to stay away from our Late!"

"Then, thank you, Aunt Liu." He Hanchuan's eyes sank slightly, his long fingers tapped lightly on the table a few times, then stood up, unbuttoning a shirt, but found that the inexplicable heaviness in his chest did not diminish.

"Auntie Liu, you misunderstood. I did this for Wanwan, not for you. You don't have to thank me."

"I still have some things to attend to, so I'll take my leave for now. Come visit Auntie Liu again when you have time." He Hanchuan frowned slightly imperceptibly and prepared to leave.

“Just a moment!” Liu’s嬸 put the broom across her knees, her smile fading. “No matter what the truth is about your breaking WanWan’s leg two years ago, she ultimately avoided a life sentence because of it. I thank you for that.”

"But that doesn't mean I like you. What you did to Wanwan, even I, an outsider, can't accept it."

"If you truly want to do some good, please let Wanwan go. In the future, just stay away from her. As Wanwan's aunt, I'll thank you on her behalf first!"

He scanned the broom in front of him, his gaze shifting to Liu's aunt with a hint of sarcasm. "How do you know it wasn't her who wronged me"

"Huh" Auntie Liu was taken aback.

He crossed the broom and strode out of the noodle shop, saying coldly, "My business with Xiang Wan is none of your concern."
