Chapter 57: Baby, We Are One

Gu Jinghan searched street by street, but he couldn't find her—not a single trace of He Huanhuan anywhere.

He drove back to the scene of the car accident and crouched down, examining it carefully.

But he wasn't a professional detective, and he couldn't make heads or tails of anything.

"Second Young Master Gu, what are you doing here?"

A young voice suddenly sounded from behind him. Gu Jinghan turned around.

The man looked somewhat familiar—wasn't he Han Mo's special assistant?

He couldn't help but frown. "What are you doing here?"

If it hadn't been for Han Mo, Huanhuan would never have been in trouble.

Who knows if she's already gone bad by now?

Waaah...

Not gone bad. She was nestled in Han Mo's neck, fast asleep and snoring softly.

Chen Yu's eyes reddened as he asked again, "Why are you here, sir?"

Gu Jinghan said impatiently, "Why do you think I'm here? If it weren't for Han Mo, would I be here? What else could it be? My sister is missing!"

He angrily picked up a clump of mud and hurled it at Chen Yu. "Get out of my sight! Just seeing you pisses me off!"

But Chen Yu stood there and let him throw it. "My brother—he didn't do it on purpose... he didn't know Han Xuan would suddenly..."

Gu Jinghan froze mid-motion. "Han Xuan? How do you know it was Han Xuan who hit him?"

Chen Yu shut his mouth and said nothing. Gu Jinghan grew even angrier, charging forward and landing a punch on him. "Talk!"

Chen Yu had already taken quite a few beatings from his father over the past couple of days, and his body still ached.

Gu Jinghan's punch was fierce, so Chen Yu immediately caved. "My brother was planning to..."

He spilled their plan, omitting the key details, and sobbed with tearful eyes, "My brother's gone missing too..."

"Is Han Mo insane or what?"

Gu Jinghan didn't understand. Why would he pull a stunt like that for no reason?

Chen Yu didn't tell him about Han Xuan's involvement in fraud.

And since he'd always had a strained relationship with Gu Chacha, Gu Jinghan's father naturally hadn't told him about any of that either.

So he knew absolutely nothing about the little scheme between Gu Chacha and Han Xuan.

From his perspective, he just thought Han Mo was nuts.

Why would you deliberately lure Han Xuan into scheming against you?

Just to get him locked up?

What a waste of time!

And he'd dragged Huanhuan into suffering along with him!

But at least he had some idea now—he could be fairly certain that He Huanhuan was still alive.

She wouldn't have gone bad.

"Han Xuan?"

He released Chen Yu and stood up straight. "You're absolutely sure it was him?"

Chen Yu nodded firmly. "Definitely him. There's no one else."

"Good."

Gu Jinghan got into his car with a dark face and drove off, heading back to the Gu residence to grab the listening device he'd bought.

To hell with morality!

It was his hotel—so what if he bugged it?

Sue him if they dared!

At the hotel, he headed straight for the presidential suite.

The manager chased after him, asking cautiously, "Boss, what are you planning to do?"

He glanced at the manager. "Are you going to interfere in my business now? Am I the boss, or are you?"

The manager quickly stepped back. "I was just asking, just asking..."

"Wait outside! Don't come in!"

He laid down the order and entered the presidential suite alone.

Thinking about Han Xuan's brevity in bed, he decided to install the bug under the bed.

Given how little time he lasted, there was no way he'd have much time for pillow talk beforehand.

He crouched down, then shouted toward the door, "Hey! Get in here!"

The manager rushed in. "Boss, what's wrong?"

Gu Jinghan: "How do I install this thing?"

He didn't know how...

The manager's face went pale. "Boss, this is illegal!"

Gu Jinghan jumped up and clamped his hand over the manager's mouth. "I know! Keep your voice down! I'll only listen once, and then I'll take it out!"

The manager frowned. Their hotel wasn't in the best location, so the presidential suite rarely got booked.

Recently, only the Second Young Master Han and the boss's sister had stayed there.

He looked at Gu Jinghan. "Boss, you're a real pervert."

Gu Jinghan's face darkened. "Shut up and install it. I'll transfer you two thousand after."

The manager quickly crouched down. "Alright, boss. My lips are sealed!"

The moment the bug was installed, the manager's earpiece picked up the front desk's voice: "Manager, manager, a guest wants to book the presidential suite. Is it ready?"

"It's ready, it's ready. Send them up!"

The manager grabbed Gu Jinghan and scrambled out to hide. He said, as if seeking praise, "Boss, the guests are here!"

Transfer me the money, quick, and make it plenty.

Gu Jinghan transferred him five thousand without a second thought. The manager's eyes squinted happily.

So what if the boss was a pervert? He could handle it!

As long as the boss didn't get perverted with him.

The two of them hid in the fire escape stairwell and watched Han Xuan bring Gu Chacha into the room with their own eyes.

Gu Jinghan immediately went back to the garage, got into his car, and turned on the listening device.

Thud.

The car door opened and closed, and the manager climbed in.

Gu Jinghan gave him a confused look. "What are you doing in here?"

The manager said matter-of-factly, "Boss, I'm afraid you might do something shady and drag me down with you. I have to keep an eye on you."

......

"Get out, get out, get out..."

But before he could shoo him away, noise started coming from the suite.

Moaning and groaning instantly filled the car, echoing in both their ears.

The manager picked his nose. "Boss, you really are a pervert."

Gu Jinghan: ...Fired! He was going to fire this guy!

The noise from the suite came to a quick end, and the manager summarized quietly, "He looks young, but his stamina's not great."

Gu Jinghan's face darkened. "Shut up!"

The manager secretly covered his mouth—he'd been talking about the Second Young Master Han, but the boss had gotten all embarrassed and angry...

My God, he'd just discovered another one of the boss's little secrets!

Inside the suite, Han Xuan lay on the bed with his arm around Gu Chacha. "Chacha, the company's back in my hands. Your performances can resume now."

Gu Chacha said uneasily, "Nothing like last time will happen again, right?"

Han Xuan kissed her forehead. "Don't worry, I'll keep a close eye on things. I won't let them screw up."

He took her hand. "Next, it's your time to shine. Once we've made enough money, how about we emigrate to New Zealand? We can buy a ranch there and start a farm..."

As for the Han Corporation, he'd already planned it out.

Once he made enough money, he'd sell the company for cheap.

Then he'd head abroad in style and live his best, carefree life.

Gu Chacha frowned. "What about my piano?"

She'd done all this not just for money.

She wanted both fame and fortune.

She was still young—there was no way she was going to emigrate and retire so early!

Han Xuan kissed her hand again. "Chacha, you have to come with me. You have to understand—Han Mo isn't dead. If he comes back, do you think he won't investigate who ran him over?"

Gu Chacha pulled her hand back. "What do you mean? You're the one who hit him. That has nothing to do with me!"

A smile curled at the corner of Han Xuan's mouth. "But how would I have known where he was? Chacha, don't forget—you went back to the Gu residence that day."

Gu Chacha sat up abruptly. "Are you threatening me?"

Han Xuan's smile widened. "How is that a threat? I'm just reminding you, darling. We're in this together."
