Xu Jinfei chuckled. “Tell me, is there a law that ends the relations.h.i.+p between father and Son?”
Xu Baohan’s handsome face had an undercurrent of emotions and he did not say a word.
Zhuang Tianya, on the other hand, hurriedly explained, “Uncle Xu, don’t misunderstand. We did not get back together. It’s just that I lived across the street and happened to b.u.mp into him when I was buying breakfast.”
“You lived across the street too?” Xu Jinfei narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Living alone, not married, right? I heard that you were engaged to Tang Zheng in the past?”
Zhuang Tianya was stunned, lowering her head unnaturally. “I’m single now, we broke up.”
“Oh,” Xu Jinfei raised his brows and nodded. “Lovers who have been apart for so many years, living so close together, this is fate..”
“What are you doing here?” Xu Baohan couldn’t take it anymore and interrupted him. “Don’t say nonsense. I have a girlfriend. Zhuang Tianya, you should leave. This is between us, father and son.”
Zhuang Tianya bit her lip and nodded helplessly. “Uncle, don’t quarrel whenever you two meet. If there’s anything, let’s talk it out. After all, both of you are biological father and son.”
She left with a bitter expression.
Xu Jinfei watched her cross the road before looking away. “When did you find a girlfriend? What does she do? Does your mother know?”
Xu Baohan looked at his father’s expression indifferently. Didn’t he know what kind of person he was? He was a person who despised the poor and loved the rich.., “No matter what she does, she is still my girlfriend. Please don’t interfere in my affairs. You said it yourself back then. Treat your son as dead. I’m very busy and I’m about to go to work. If you want to go home, go ahead. The key hasn’t changed. Please don’t disturb me anymore. There’s nothing to talk about between the two of us. If you are looking for me to help with the relations.h.i.+p, it is even more impossible.”
“Unfilial son,” Xu Jinfei was so angry that his body was trembling. “I came back to inform you that your grandfather pa.s.sed away last night due to illness.”
Xu Baohan’s departing figure froze.
Xu Jinfei continued, “It’s at the funeral parlour in Ye city, it’s up to you whether you want to go. To be honest, if it wasn’t for your cold-blooded and merciless nature back then, watching your uncle go to jail and refusing to help, your grandfather wouldn’t have been so angry that he suffered a stroke. After suffering for a few years, he couldn’t endure it.”
Xu Baohan clenched his fists with difficulty. After a while, he turned sideways, half of his body sinking into the shadows of the morning sun, as cold as frost, “That’s true. After suffering a stroke for so many years, he probably didn’t realize that his son’s imprisonment had nothing to do with his grandson. It was his father’s lack of discipline…”
“B*stard.” Xu Jinfei was furious, slapping him across the face.
But before he could touch Xu Baohan’s face, Xu Baohan had blocked him, holding Xu Jinfei’s hand in mid-air. “Dad, you’re getting old. Your hand speed is much slower now compared to your previous. .h.i.t on me, and you’re much more powerless.”
After he said that, he flung Xu Jinfei’s hand away. “I’ve received your notice. If I have the time, I’ll send him on his last journey. If I don’t have the time… forget about it.”
After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back, not caring how fiercely Xu Jinfei was scolding him from behind.
After getting into the car, he sat quietly for a while before slowly burying his face in his palm.
……
When he rushed to the court, Su Run saw his haggard expression and sighed in shock. “Chief Judge, you’re ten minutes late today.”
This was the first time he had seen him late to the court.
“Mm, so be it.” Xu Baohan pulled out his chair and sat down expressionlessly.
Su Run watched his back for a while before he went out to secretly call An Lan.
