After Divorce, Hidden Marriage Husband Became Addicted to Me-Chapter 433 - 302: Suing Gao Youhan_2
Chapter 433: Chapter 302: Suing Gao Youhan_2
But Shen Duan understood clearly.
The "her" he referred to was Tang Xi.
"Miss Tang probably also doesn’t wish for your identity to be exposed. After all, her social circle is simple, consisting of colleagues, while your status, President Fu, is extraordinary. If the people around Miss Tang learned of your identity, it would inevitably lead to unnecessary criticism. Miss Tang must have considered this, which is why she concealed your identity."
Fu Tingzhou pinched the bridge of his nose, alleviating some fatigue, "You’re really good at making excuses for her. How did the matter I asked you to handle with the bank go?"
"It was sorted out in two minutes." Shen Duan did not expect such a trivial matter to concern Fu Tingzhou. It was just a bank appointment...
"President Fu, Shangguan Group is hosting a jewelry design competition tomorrow. Shangguan Nanxian called me an hour ago to inquire whether you would attend?"
"You can attend on my behalf."
The competition’s restart might have only stabilized Shangguan Group for a while in the past. However, Gao Group recently became embroiled in a public scandal, causing their stocks to plunge. Now, Shangguan Group could soar with the wind’s support. Gao Chengxiong and Gao Yufeng, along with Gao Youhan, haven’t been seen since that day.
The internet is currently in an uproar.
Nearly the entire Northern Island is discussing how the Gao Family used despicable tactics and improper relationships to compete.
Moreover, the police have gotten involved.
As Shen Duan drove, he glanced at the road ahead and said, "The Gao Family this time has sunk into a public relations storm, losing billions in market value in just a few days. The banks have come to collect debts several times, and this time the Gao Family will definitely need to push someone to the forefront. It’s highly likely that Gao Chengxiong and Gao Yufeng will choose to abandon Gao Youhan, after all, it’s Gao Youhan’s face that appeared in the video."
Two minutes passed before Shen Duan continued, "However, I’ve heard that the other designers and socialites aren’t pursuing the kidnapping matter with Gao Youhan. But Shangguan Group has already hired a lawyer to file a lawsuit."
"Find me a lawyer to sue Gao Youhan for kidnapping, threatening, and endangering Tang Xi’s personal safety," Fu Tingzhou crossed his legs, speaking with closed eyes and a mild tone, but his words left no room for argument, "Even if Shangguan Nanxian withdraws the lawsuit, we will not."
Shen Duan glanced at Fu Tingzhou, "Understood."

In the evening, Gu Zhiyi came to the ward.
It was Su Xuewen who told her.
When Gu Zhiyi arrived, she brought some duck soup and some pastries that Tang Xi liked to eat from the roadside.
"I’m on the night shift, luckily. After eating, I’ll head to the emergency room," Gu Zhiyi picked up a bowl of soup for her, "How are you feeling, still uncomfortable? I’ll come to see you tonight when I have time. Call me if you need anything. The ER is quiet at night, not many patients."
"I’m fine, just have a fever. It’ll pass in a couple of days." Tang Xi took a sip of the soup. The fever dampened her sense of taste, but she still complimented, "It’s delicious. It’s kind of Doctor Gu to come see me."
"Should Doctor Gu spend the night on a makeshift bed in your ward to keep an eye on you? I think you might get a fever again tonight," Gu Zhiyi, seeing that Tang Xi was still joking and appeared to be in good spirits, laughed along a bit.
"No worries, I’m a doctor myself."
Tang Xi had been lying in bed all day and her back was starting to feel uncomfortable.
After eating a bit, she and Gu Zhiyi went downstairs for a walk.
Gu Zhiyi mentioned the jewelry design competition happening the next day and asked if she would participate. Tang Xi shook her head, but she was indeed eager to see it. Hearing from Gu Zhiyi that there would be a live media broadcast, she took out her phone and followed a couple of accounts.
Tang Xi sent a WeChat to Si Ruoli, encouraging her to perform well tomorrow.
Si Ruoli replied with an adorable smiley strawberry bunny sticker.
Perhaps Gu Zhiyi told her about Tang Xi having a fever, Si Ruoli replied: "How are you, has the fever subsided? I have customers at the shop tonight, Mengmeng is off. After I finish with this customer, I’ll close the shop and come over to see you."
Tang Xi hurriedly replied, "No need, it’s just a fever, it’s no big deal. Gu Zhiyi is right by my side. You just take a good rest tonight and prepare for the design competition tomorrow. I’ll be watching the live stream, you have to do your best, get a good night’s sleep and recharge!!"
"Alright then, I’ll come to see you after it ends tomorrow."
"I’ll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Once I’ve recovered, the three of us should get together and have a meal, let’s have hotpot at your shop!"

There’s a light breeze on North Island tonight, not too cold, but it carries the moisture from the seaside.
Gu Zhiyi’s voice followed the breeze into Tang Xi’s ears, "When are you leaving?"
"Next week," Tang Xi had already processed Tangtang’s withdrawal from school in the past few days.
"That’s soon." Gu Zhiyi sighed softly, "I still remember when I first met you, just three months ago. I was transferred to this hospital with you." She put her arm around Tang Xi’s shoulder, "I never thought we would become friends. The very first time I saw you, I knew about you. Do you know you’re very famous in the hospital? Those female doctors would quietly gossip about you behind your back, saying very nasty things. But the first time I saw you, I felt you were my type!"
Of course, Tang Xi knew how those people gossiped about her behind her back.
They said she was a whore pretending to be pure, always trying to hook up with wealthy people.
That she had seduced all the male doctors in the hospital.
The ones who said these things were nothing but jealous, big-mouthed, and spineless followers with no minds of their own.
Plus, Gao Youhan had made a scene in the emergency department.
Tang Xi was standing in the vortex of gossip.
She wasn’t afraid of being misunderstood, just living her life well was enough. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
She wasn’t currency; she couldn’t make everyone like her.
Even if currency fell on the ground, those wealthy people would disdain to stoop to pick it up.
Gu Zhiyi was straightforward in character, Tang Xi had never thought before that they would become friends. At this moment, she smiled, leaned her head gently on Gu Zhiyi’s shoulder; this friendship was the most beautiful reward she received on North Island.
She would also reminisce about the memories she had on North Island in the future.
Gu Zhiyi was not a sentimental person, but now, with the evening breeze blowing and their shared silence, she felt a twinge of sorrow, "Come on, it’s not like it’s a life-or-death farewell. It’s not far from Qichuan City to North City by flight. If we want to meet, we can do it on the same day. North City is your home, after all. You’ll be the host then!"
"No problem!"

Tang Xi took her medicine and lay down in bed at night.
She was dozing off when she heard the door open.
Struggling to open her eyes, Tang Xi glanced over. The bright light in the hallway revealed a tall figure standing at the door, the outline resembling that of a man.
But she was too sleepy.
Fu Tingzhou lightened his footsteps and slowly sat down in the accompanying chair. He watched Tang Xi’s sleeping face, took out his phone, and under the dimly lit mode, he focused the camera several times before finally capturing Tang Xi’s face.
