Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 403 - 402: Deal Reached

Gu Xiaoqing also persuaded Fang Shaohan not to reveal her whereabouts these past few days. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

After all, a girl running around all day might make things even harder if Fang Shaohan’s grandparents found out about the two of them.

Fang Shaohan listened to Gu Xiaoqing and decided to bear with it for the future. However, he remembered he had an old colleague in Guang City who was transferred there and is now a captain in the criminal investigation department.

He advised Gu Xiaoqing that if she encountered any difficulties, she shouldn’t hesitate to find his friend.

Safety is the most worrying thing when you’re away from home, and even though his girlfriend had her father with her, Fang Shaohan still felt uneasy.

Gu Xiaoqing nodded, and after noting down the contact details and name, Fang Shaohan talked sweetly to her and chatted for a while before reluctantly hanging up the phone.

Gu Ruhai brought a late-night snack to Gu Xiaoqing’s room and asked his daughter, "Sweetheart, have you succeeded yet? I feel like waiting here isn’t the way to go."

Gu Ruhai was really getting restless. Success or not, at least give a signal. What’s keeping them hanging here supposed to mean?

"Dad, in business matters, you must be patient and calm." Gu Xiaoqing broke the disposable chopsticks and took a bite of the noodle soup.

"It’s so hot."

Gu Ruhai shook his head. "I can’t handle this kind of thing." He really wasn’t much of a businessman.

Early the next morning, the phone by the hotel bed woke Gu Xiaoqing up.

She picked up the phone and heard President Wang’s excited voice, "Miss Gu, Miss Gu, the matter, the matter is..."

"Uh, it’s President Wang, don’t rush, speak slowly."

Gu Xiaoqing sat up, leaned against the pillow, and was still half-awake.

"I finally managed it after all my hard work!"

Thud!

Hearing the noise from President Wang’s side, Gu Xiaoqing hurriedly got up, accidentally missed a step, and fell off the bed.

It seemed that Gu Xiaoqing was also desperately holding back all her emotions, not contacting President Wang, not letting him see how particularly anxious she was.

Because Gu Xiaoqing’s anxiety was not without reason!

"Hello, hello, Miss Gu, are you alright?"

"Ouch, it hurts."

Gu Xiaoqing held her ankle in pain. But she still quickly picked up the phone and said to President Wang, "It’s nothing, I just slipped, no big deal. When can we sign the contract on your side?"

"Phew, I thought something had happened to you."

President Wang was on edge, even though he usually enjoyed flattery and taking petty advantages, he had never done something like this, taking a high commission from the company’s industry.

He was also sleepless, and it had been tough for him these days. He just hoped to finalize this matter early.

To be serious, he was more anxious than Gu Xiaoqing.

"I can do it anytime on my side. As long as you come, we can sign immediately." There was a slightly urgent tone in President Wang’s voice; it was reassuring to get the money in his pocket.

"Alright, I’ll bring a lawyer today to sign with you and have it notarized shortly after, is there any problem?"

Gu Xiaoqing asked.

"No problem!"

President Wang’s heart nearly leaped out of joy.

Gu Xiaoqing hung up the phone, started to contact the lawyer she had hired these days, and then called Gu Ruhai next door, and they set off for Yangcheng Pharmaceutical Company together.

In the car, Gu Ruhai looked at his daughter’s gradually swelling foot and said distressedly, "Can’t it wait? Let’s go to the hospital first."

"It’s alright, Dad. Once we’re done here, it’s not too late to go to the hospital."

"How about this, you go up to discuss, and I’ll go nearby to buy a bottle of herbal oil."

Gu Ruhai got out of the car. He didn’t care about lawyers for negotiations. He only cared about his daughter’s swollen foot.

"No need, we’ll go after..."

Before Gu Xiaoqing finished speaking, Gu Ruhai had already quickly disappeared from her sight.

With the help of a lawyer by her side, Gu Xiaoqing slowly walked into the factory.

President Wang, with a lot of people, unfurled banners to warmly welcome Gu Xiaoqing. Seeing her having difficulty moving, President Wang quickly directed people to help her.

"Miss Gu, this way, please."

President Wang also hoped to complete the signing soon and ease his burden, so he hurriedly gathered the company veterans to hold the signing ceremony.

The whole process went smoothly, and there were no issues with either party. The lawyer handled everything, confirmed that there were no problems, and then Gu Xiaoqing shook hands with President Wang, smiling, "How about it, would President Wang like to have a meal together?"

"Of course, it would be my honor."

President Wang was beaming with joy.

Gu Xiaoqing kept her promise, and during the meal, she handed over a bankbook with four hundred thousand as a reward for President Wang’s efforts these days.

President Wang, excited, slipped the bankbook into his pocket, and his heart gradually settled down. It was then he remembered that Gu Xiaoqing had sprained her foot, so he attentively said, "Miss Gu, I happen to know someone at the city hospital..."

"Ah, no need, I’ll go myself."

Gu Xiaoqing smiled and shook her head; it was just a sprain.

After finishing everything, Gu Xiaoqing returned to the hotel and found her father still hadn’t returned.

Earlier, she thought he just went to buy things and got tired of socializing.

Certainly, she didn’t like it either but couldn’t ignore it.

But now that her father hadn’t returned to the hotel, she started feeling something wasn’t right, as Gu Ruhai wasn’t the type to leave her alone at the hotel.

Gu Xiaoqing hurriedly picked up the phone to call President Wang to confirm if Gu Ruhai had gone back to find her.

"No, Mr. Gu hasn’t come back."

"Are you sure? My father didn’t go back?"

"Uh, wait a minute, I’ll have someone ask." President Wang was puzzled, but considering Gu Xiaoqing might have some background, he quickly asked someone to inquire.

The doorman remembered the Gu family father and daughter clearly, so he could confirm that he hadn’t seen Gu Ruhai today.

"No, no, this can’t continue."

Gu Xiaoqing called the police, but they said a missing person can only be reported after 24 hours. President Wang had already asked people to look for him, but there was still no news.

At this moment, Gu Xiaoqing thought of Fang Shaohan’s friend.

She absolutely didn’t want to seek help, because asking for help meant encountering trouble, but it was already an urgent moment.

She had a bad premonition.

"Hello, is Captain Kang from the criminal investigation department available? I’m a friend of Fang Shaohan’s, and I need to speak with him."

Soon, a hearty man’s voice came over the phone, "Ah, it’s Miss Gu Xiaoqing, right? Shaohan gave me a heads-up, saying he’d find you once he was done. I didn’t expect that just as I finished my case, you called. Since you’re Shaohan’s girlfriend, I must play the host, or that kid wouldn’t cut me any slack, haha."
