Xu Jinfei chuckled. âTell me, is there a law that ends the relationship between father and Son?â
Xu Baohanâs handsome face had an undercurrent of emotions and he did not say a word.
Zhuang Tianya, on the other hand, hurriedly explained, âUncle Xu, donât misunderstand. We did not get back together. Itâs just that I lived across the street and happened to bump into him when I was buying breakfast.â
âYou lived across the street too?â Xu Jinfei narrowed his eyes and smiled. âLiving alone, not married, right? I heard that you were engaged to Tang Zheng in the past?â
Zhuang Tianya was stunned, lowering her head unnaturally. âIâm single now, we broke up.â
âOh,â Xu Jinfei raised his brows and nodded. âLovers who have been apart for so many years, living so close together, this is fate..â
âWhat are you doing here?â Xu Baohan couldnât take it anymore and interrupted him. âDonât say nonsense. I have a girlfriend. Zhuang Tianya, you should leave. This is between us, father and son.â
Zhuang Tianya bit her lip and nodded helplessly. âUncle, donât quarrel whenever you two meet. If thereâs anything, letâs talk it out. After all, both of you are biological father and son.â
She left with a bitter expression.
Xu Jinfei watched her cross the road before looking away. âWhen did you find a girlfriend? What does she do? Does your mother know?â
Xu Baohan looked at his fatherâs expression indifferently. Didnât he know what kind of person he was? He was a person who despised the poor and loved the rich.., âNo matter what she does, she is still my girlfriend. Please donât interfere in my affairs. You said it yourself back then. Treat your son as dead. Iâm very busy and Iâm about to go to work. If you want to go home, go ahead. The key hasnât changed. Please donât disturb me anymore. Thereâs nothing to talk about between the two of us. If you are looking for me to help with the relationship, it is even more impossible.â
âUnfilial son,â Xu Jinfei was so angry that his body was trembling. âI came back to inform you that your grandfather passed away last night due to illness.â
Xu Baohanâs departing figure froze.
Xu Jinfei continued, âItâs at the funeral parlour in Ye city, itâs up to you whether you want to go. To be honest, if it wasnât for your cold-blooded and merciless nature back then, watching your uncle go to jail and refusing to help, your grandfather wouldnât have been so angry that he suffered a stroke. After suffering for a few years, he couldnât endure it.â
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, âThatâs true. After suffering a stroke for so many years, he probably didnât realize that his sonâs imprisonment had nothing to do with his grandson. It was his fatherâs lack of disciplineâ¦â
âB*stard.â Xu Jinfei was furious, slapping him across the face.
But before he could touch Xu Baohanâs face, Xu Baohan had blocked him, holding Xu Jinfeiâs hand in mid-air. âDad, youâre getting old. Your hand speed is much slower now compared to your previous hit on me, and youâre much more powerless.â
After he said that, he flung Xu Jinfeiâs hand away. âIâve received your notice. If I have the time, Iâll send him on his last journey. If I donât have the time⦠forget about it.â
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.
â¦â¦
When he rushed to the court, Su Run saw his haggard expression and sighed in shock. âChief Judge, youâre ten minutes late today.â
This was the first time he had seen him late to the court.
âMm, so be it.â 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.
