Chapter 1123

“Who was it?” Han Zhuoli said darkly.

“It was Mr. Han Dongping,” Zheng Tianming said.

He was puzzled too when he got this answer.

What was Han Dongping thinking?!

What was there to be gained by betraying his own family?

Han Zhuoli’s anger was clearly visible in his silence. “He spoke about Lu Man too?”

“That, he didn’t.” Zheng Tianming felt that Han Dongping at least still had some sense in him. “What he exposed was purely the surface meaning—that your wife is Mr. Wang’s daughter. But as to who his daughter is, the informant didn’t know. That is to say, Han Dongping didn’t really divulge anything, just that one sentence.”

“I get it.” Han Zhuoli grew even more silent.

But no matter who looked at him now, they would clearly see his rage.

The more silent he was, the angrier he was.

Zheng Tianming knew that his job was done.

He left the office.

Han Zhuoli reclined on his chair, pinching the bridge of his nose.

He thought it was someone who didn’t like Lu Man and wanted to harm her.

But after they checked, the culprit turned out to be someone from the Han Family.

It was his own family, yet he was harming Lu Man. Han Zhuoli was so furious, he could explode.

Calming himself down, Han Zhuoli picked up his phone and hesitated before dialing Lu Man’s number.

Thank goodness her lesson hadn’t started yet.

Lu Man left the classroom with her phone the moment it rang.

She walked some distance before picking up.

“The informant has been found,” Han Zhuoli said.

Hearing Han Zhuoli’s weird tone, Lu Man thought for a moment and had a hunch. “It’s Uncle?”

Han Zhuoli was helpless. This girl was smart as always.

“It’s him. But what he leaked was exactly what the Internet said, about my wife being Wang Juhuai’s daughter, but nothing about who she really is.” Finally, some news that could be a relief for them. “Father-in-law called too to show his own concern.”

Lu Man was stunned for a moment after hearing this form of address all of a sudden.

She recovered after a few seconds, realizing that the “father-in-law” Han Zhuoli referred to was Wang Juhuai.

It couldn’t be Lu Qiyuan anyway.

Lu Man smiled after hearing his address. “Does Dad know you’re calling him this?”

Han Zhuoli thought for a moment. It seemed he didn’t address him as such over the phone just now. “Not yet. I’ll find a chance to tell him.”

Lu Man reckoned Wang Juhuai would have a scare.

Seeing that it was almost time, Lu Man said, “I have to go for class.”

She did not ask how Han Zhuoli would settle the matter. He would never let her suffer.

Because of her trust in him, she did not even have to ask.

“Okay.” It was as if they were born to complete each other.

Lu Man never asked and Han Zhuoli never told.

But they knew each other’s thoughts without the need to open their mouths.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Upon hanging up, Lu Man hurried back to class.

And Han Zhuoli did as promised, calling Wang Juhuai.

While waiting for Wang Juhuai to pick up, Han Zhuoli thought about what Lu Man said.

“Zhuoli.” Right at this time, Wang Juhuai picked up.

As Han Zhuoli was thinking about what Lu Man had said, he blurted out, “Dad.”

Wang Juhuai’s hand shook and he nearly dropped his phone.

Han Zhuoli’s sudden surprise shocked him, who had not mentally prepared himself at all.

It was so sudden—what’s wrong with him?!
