Chapter 439 An abacus bead hit my face.

Du Anrao knew that no matter how much outsiders said, it was useless. Only by investigating, seeing, and feeling for herself and coming to her senses could she save herself.

He sighed and said, "I've told you everything I know. Whether it's true or not, you'll have to judge for yourself. All I can do is advise you that seeing isn't always believing, and hearing isn't always true either. Only you can know if life is good or bad. No matter how eloquently others speak, they can't live your life for you. It's always good to think things through before acting, after all, you're not alone now."

Chen Yefang suddenly realized, yes, she wasn't alone now, she had her daughter. Even if not for herself, she had to pull herself together for her daughter's sake.

Just as Du Anrao finished talking about Chen Yefang, Liang Wanjuan, who had gone to the side to make a phone call, returned with his phone.

As soon as he sat down, Liang Wanjuan poured himself a glass of mineral water, stood up and said to Du Anrao, "Miss Du, we are truly grateful for your help to our family today. Due to limited resources, I will toast you with water instead of wine. In the future, whenever you need anything, our whole family will do our best to repay you without hesitation."

After Liang Wanjuan finished speaking, he drank the water with great gusto, which caused an uproar among the crowd.

Tao Sigu and Chen Yefang had just had Du Anrao help them look at each other's blind dates. Chen Yefang, in particular, was not in a hurry to make a decision about her so-called blind date. Just as Du Anrao said, some things need to be felt by oneself, and no matter how much others say, it is all empty talk.

Therefore, she was particularly concerned about the outcome of Liang Wanjuan's call. Even though she knew it was impolite to ask so abruptly, she still tentatively asked, "Brother Liang, did you... call your wife and your parents?"

Fortunately, Liang Wanjuan didn't intend to hide it: "My dad has a slight cold recently. He's stubborn and doesn't like going to the hospital, so he just took some cold medicine that we always keep at home and didn't let my mom tell me. My wife and I have discussed it, and she'll take my dad to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow. She'll let me know if there's anything wrong."

Liang Wanjuan originally planned to book a flight back soon. Although it was just a minor cold, his elderly father was not young. If it dragged on for too long and caused any complications, even if his life was not in danger, the old man would suffer a lot.

At this critical moment, it was the old man himself who told him to stay here and wait until he finished his work before going home.

While doing so, I should also cultivate a good relationship with Miss Du, and encourage my child to get closer to her. If I could persuade her to part with one or two of her treasures to protect her eldest granddaughter as she grows up safely, that would be even better.

Liang Wanjuan: "..." Dad, your abacus beads are thousands of miles away, and they're practically jumping into my face!
Moreover, wouldn't you say you've exposed yourself? You verbally curse my unfilial descendants and claim we're irreconcilable enemies, but secretly you've been keeping an eye on me all along, not only watching the dramas I write but also the variety shows I participate in!
Thinking of this, Liang Wanjuan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, his grin almost reaching the back of his head.

Seeing his expression, Chen Yefang understood everything. What Du Anrao had just said was all true; could her blind date really be…?

Chen Yefang suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, not only because the blind date she might be forced to accept was a two-faced beast, but also because a question suddenly popped into her mind: Did her relatives know about this? Did her parents... know?

Compared to Chen Yefang's lingering fear, Tao Sigu breathed a huge sigh of relief. Fortunately, his family didn't have so many troubles, and his family members were all healthy. The only problem was his career, but now he had a direction.

In an instant, he felt even more grateful to Du Anrao.

Of the four regular guests participating in the show, three have already been counted by Du Anrao, leaving only Duan Jingxing, who seems somewhat out of place.

Busy trying to please his son, Mr. Duan tried to serve him food but was rejected. He then turned away, looking aggrieved like a wronged wife. When he looked up, he met the curious stares of the crowd.

"Why are you all looking at me like that?"

"Mr. Duan, would you like to have Xiao An take a look at your face?" The speaker was Liang Wanjuan. He had heard about the Duan family's affairs and was the most curious person among those present, apart from Du Hexuan.

Duan Jingxing subconsciously waved his hand to refuse: "No need, no need, I don't need to calculate anything."

Upon hearing this, Du Anrao immediately gave him a meaningful look.

Are you sure? Of all these guests, your family's problem is the most explosive and serious. I really don't need to offer you some friendly advice to clear up the misunderstanding between you and your son. Otherwise, if an outsider really causes chaos in your home and harms your descendants, you'll be crying your eyes out.

"Really?" Du Hexuan's eyes flickered slightly. He had waited all night for this moment, how could he let this great opportunity slip away?

"From what I see, Mr. Duan, your relationship with your son seems... you really don't intend to... give it a try?"

It has to be said that the son is indeed the Achilles' heel of this domineering CEO who is obsessed with his son.

Duan Jingxing, who had initially firmly believed that he didn't need any calculations, suddenly began to waver, and finally turned to ask his son for his opinion: "Liangliang, do you think Dad needs to have his fortune told?"

Young Master Duan Changqing promptly rolled his eyes at him, not wanting to pay him any attention.

Duan Jingxing instantly transformed into a dejected, tearful figure, but when he stood up again and looked at Du Anrao, he had already reverted to his usual impeccably dressed elite appearance.

"Alright, I'll give you a chance to see how you do it. If you can really change my son's opinion of me, I'll give you ten million, no, twenty million!"

Duan Jingxing's words caused an uproar in the room, after all, that was 20 million, not 2,000 yuan.

The director, watching from the screen, was green with envy. That was twenty million! If only he had that money, he wouldn't have to worry about funding for post-production.

Du Anrao, who was envied by everyone at the time, rubbed his forehead with a headache and said ruthlessly, "You are really stupid and rich."

No wonder he was so easily fooled with just a few words; he lost his home, his son, his money, and even his life.

Upon hearing this, Du Hexuan couldn't help but hiss inwardly. Although he had known that this person's future might be a bit tough, this was still... too tragic.
Because of the 20 million, the surroundings were somewhat noisy, and Duan Jingxing couldn't hear Du Anrao's words clearly. He asked in confusion, "What did you say? You think 20 million is too little? The price is negotiable. As long as you can help, you can have as much as you want. But if you dare to lie to me..."

As Duan Jingxing spoke, a chilling glint flashed in his eyes, inspiring awe in all who beheld him.

Duan Changqing, who was sitting next to him, gave him a disdainful look, silently moved his chair to the side to distance himself from him, as if he was afraid of getting involved with him.

Duan Jingxing's carefully cultivated domineering aura instantly dissipated, and he pleaded in a humble manner, "Liangliang, don't sit so far away from Daddy, come closer, please?"

Everyone at the scene: "..."
