Mr Gu's First Doting Marriage

Chapter 572: Chapter 573: Can’t I change the rules that I set?

Everyone turned around.

They saw a man standing at the restaurant’s entrance, suitcase in hand.

“Third Brother is back,” Xi Yanbo called out gently.

Xi Yanbo and Xi Yankai had been enjoying the show since the beginning.

The Xi residence was often cold and deserted, so such a lively scene was quite rare.

Xia Yangyang was slightly taken aback by the man’s presence.

Back in the research lab, she had already begun to suspect.

The lab must belong to Gu Zhaohan.

In this world, no one cared about Xia Ye’s condition more than Gu Zhaohan did.

And also, those notes in the files.

Xia Yangyang recognized them at a glance.

Xia Yangyang almost forgot.

Gu Zhaohan had returned to the Xi family four years ago.

However, he was never willing to change his surname. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

It was said that Xi Jiachen thought highly of him and had been trying to convince him to work for the company over the past four years.

But Gu Zhaohan insisted on studying medicine abroad.

Upon seeing Gu Zhaohan, Han Cheng’s expression slightly changed.

The man standing before him probably held the highest position in the Xi family.

Because the eldest and second young masters of the family were incompetent, the old man brought the third young master back with the intention of grooming him as the successor.

Even though Gu Zhaohan is currently just the “third young master” of the Xi family,

Everyone knew that, given Xi Jiachen’s affection for him, he would eventually become the head of the Xi family. This was well understood, even by Xi Yanbo and Xi Yankai.

Han Cheng quickly tried to curry favor and said: “Third Young Master, if we knew you were coming back, we would have arranged for someone to meet you at the airport.”

Gu Zhaohan, however, shot Han Cheng a detached glance and walked straight up to Xia Yangyang.

When he was at the door, he had just heard everything that was going on inside.

But Gu Zhaohan wasn’t interested in that.

His gaze was locked on Xia Yangyang alone.

Her cheeks were flushed, her gaze slightly unfocused, her steps wobbly, it was clear that she wasn’t feeling well.

Upon reaching Xia Yangyang, Gu Zhaohan extended his hand to touch her forehead, “Why is your temperature so high? Why didn’t you go to the hospital if you have a fever?”

Everyone present was shocked by this scene.

What exactly was going on?

Did the third young master know Miss Xia?

And the third young master, who was generally so aloof, was he really showing concern here?

Han Cheng’s face turned pale.

Xi Yanbo and Xi Yankai were also greatly surprised.

Just who was this girl? Wasn’t she the daughter of Liu Ruyan’s ex-husband? How come she was so familiar with Gu Zhaohan?

Xia Yangyang, however, shook her head and took a step back, “I’m fine.”

Seeing the wind change, Han Cheng quickly said: “Third Young Master, we didn’t know Miss Xia was acquainted with you. However, Miss Xia did barge into your research room earlier, so how should this be handled?”

Han Cheng was still unsure about their relationship.

But he knew that the third young master was very protective of his research room. Even Xi Jiachen was not allowed to enter, let alone regular folks.

If Miss Xia was only an ordinary friend of the third young master, trespassing into his research room would likely be considered intolerable.

But Gu Zhaohan only said lightly, “Is this the way you’ve been trained to treat guests over your many years as housekeeper of the Xi family, Mr. Han? Are you going to send Miss Xia away?”

Han Cheng sensed the implication in Gu Zhaohan’s words, noticing the third young master now appeared to seek an account for this matter.

The third young master typically didn’t meddle with Xi family affairs, but now he came across as forceful and sharp, seemingly intent on punishment.

Han Cheng quickly explained, “Miss Xia intruded upon an off-limits area of the Xi family. The rules dictate that she should be ‘escorted’ out.”

Gu Zhaohan’s voice was icy, “Am I not allowed to change the rules that I set?”
