Chapter 779: Chapter 770 Family (4) Chapter 779: Chapter 770 Family (4) “You…” Although Han Yizhi knew his brother’s personality, he was still a bit annoyed. He lowered his voice, “To tell the truth, Dad sent me to check on you. If you don’t come back with me, he really will come and get you.”
Han Yifan had been used to his father’s beatings since he was young and wasn’t afraid of him, “Then let him come and get me. At his old age, he’d risk throwing out his back traveling so far. Better he stays home and enjoys his grandchild. I’m doing well out here, eating and sleeping just fine.”
Han Yizhi had married early, to a woman of equal social standing—the daughter of his father’s longstanding friend—and already had a grandson. With the third generation of the Han Family secure, Han Yifan became even more reckless.
But Han Yizhi’s marriage was a thorn in his side. Back in the day, he too had a girlfriend he was close with, but her father was a gambling addict who had accumulated a huge debt. Once Han’s father found out, he paid off the girl’s family’s debts on the condition that she leave his son.
He and the girl broke up and got back together several times, but in the end, she simply couldn’t wait any longer due to her age and they had to break up. It was then that Han Yizhi accepted his current wife; he was already thirty-eight, but only had a child a year ago.
After finishing his piece, Han Yizhi stood up directly, “Anyway, if you don’t want Dad to come and get you personally, it’s best you come back with me now. You know what Dad’s temper is like. If you go along with him a bit, he might just get angry and beat you once. But if you dawdle and make him mad, in the end, it won’t be just one beating.”
Han Yifan was just joking around, but he knew what was important. He shrugged, “I can go back, but big brother, you didn’t come alone, did you? You must have bodyguards with you. Before Fei’er leaves the Southwest, have them protect her. And make sure no one else bullies her. Remember, this is your brother’s girlfriend we’re talking about. If she gets bullied, not only do I lose face, but so do you.”
Han Yizhi was at a loss for words. Before anything had even started, he was already worrying about his girlfriend’s safety.
“If you don’t agree, I won’t leave. If I don’t see her safely back to the set, then I’ll just have to take her myself.”
Though Han Yizhi was used to his brother’s antics, he barely managed to suppress the urge to hit him. After a moment, he finally said, “Got it, so I should just ask a few staff members to come over and escort Miss Shang, right?”
“Not staff, bodyguards. If you have PR, bring a couple of them too. In case the media tries to stir up some trouble, they can help her out.”
What else could he do, having already agreed to this from the start? Han Yizhi could only nod, “Okay. Shall we go then?”
“No, I’ll wait until her assistant or agent arrives, or your bodyguards come. Only then can I rest assured and leave. Otherwise, I’ll just continue resting here.”
“Han Yifan!” Han Yizhi said, tension evident in his expression.
“Eh, brother.” Han Yifan replied with a cheeky smile.
After a standoff between the two brothers, Han Yizhi conceded in the end, “I’ll call someone right away. Happy now? Go get ready.”
Only then did Han Yifan nod with a grin.
In truth, he didn’t have much to get ready. He had come alone, with no luggage to speak of, and would just need to change into a set of clothes and grab his documents before leaving.
Gone was the playful facade, Han Yifan looked at Shang Feifei earnestly and said, “Isn’t every love supposed to face ninety-nine difficulties? This is just the first. Don’t worry, I won’t let you suffer.”
Shang Feifei had never seen him so serious before, yet for some reason, she felt that, in this moment, whatever Han Yifan said was a promise.
