Chapter 5 - Who Said That It Was My Fault?

Gu Zhang was eyeing Han Corporation's upcoming construction project since the day it was announced. However, he knows that among hundreds of companies, his company won't be selected since, in the field of construction, they are still new and amateur. It's been only three years since he established the subsidiary company, which deals with construction projects. If Han Corporation's upcoming project landed in his hands, then no one can prevent his company from becoming unbeatable in the construction field as well. Han Corporations do not have a name for no reason. He thought that using Xu Nuan's accident case, he could make him select Gu enterprises for the upcoming project as compensation. However, his expressions turned ashen when he heard a weak yet cold voice from the side. " Who said that the matter has been resolved?" Han Zihao raised his brows as he lazily looked at the girl, who was looking sickly, but there was determination and a strong aura in her eyes. Feng Sheng has told him that the adopted daughter of the Gu family, Gu Nuan, is timid and an introvert. That's why, unlike others, Feng Sheng didn't offer much in compensation and just thought that bearing hospital bills would be enough since the Gu family is not less on money in any way. Han Zihao didn't say anything because he was not interested in dealing with such petty matters. He was going for important work and was on his way to the airport when she suddenly jumped in front of his car. His driver was driving, and because of shock, he couldn't put the brakes on time and ended up hitting her quite badly. They immediately took her to the hospital, and he had to cancel the trip as well because this is quite a serious issue. Even though it was not their fault, it's about someone's life after all. They did whatever they could have done. However, while leaving the hospital, he heard that the nurse who was talking with the girl's family, and someone from the other side, said that they didn't know anyone by this name. He was quite surprised, and when he heard that the girl had woken up, he went to meet the doctor first. After knowing her condition, he was a bit surprised hearing that she had lost her memories, but it might be temporary due to shock. After this, he came to meet her to clear this matter once and for all, but was shocked to hear the conversation going on in the room. He couldn't help but be amused that the rumored adopted daughter of the Gu family is not the adopted one but the legitimate heiress of the family. How can someone's life be so dramatic? He was surprised to see the indifferent expressions of a rumored timid girl. Xu Nuan raised her head and glanced at him with an indifferent gaze. She chuckled sarcastically and turned to Gu Zhang, " Who said that the matter has been resolved? It was a fu*king serious accident. Because of this, someone…" She paused as she was about to say that someone had died. But she couldn't say anything and pursed her lips. She turned to Han Zihao and said, " Because of this accident, I had gone through an operation and am in this state. And paying for bills is enough? I don't agree with this arrangement. It's not fair." Gu Zhang's gaze darkened when he heard Xu Nuan cursing. Since when did this girl become so crude? Xu Nuan might not have been as elegant and intelligent as his daughter, but she has always been obedient and timely, which is why he never had problems with her. " Xu Nuan. What kind of crude language is this? Is this what we have taught you?" Lin Ran shouted when she saw Xu Nuan's behavior. Xu Nuan knitted her brows and chuckled as she looked at this body's so-called mother, " Hah. What a joke. You raised me? I think you forgot that I am an orphan, and you simply adopted me. And since that day, there has not been a single day when you showed any effort to teach me." " Wait..you did teach me something." She paused as she looked up at Lin Ran with a mocking smile. " You taught me how people change their attitude according to their needs. You brought me home for your so-called satisfaction, while you never accepted me as your daughter. You guys are nothing but a bunch of losers. " "-_-" "-_-" "-_-" The three of them were shocked. They have seen Xu Nuan all these years, but she has never acted like this before. ' What has gotten into her all of a sudden? How can her attitude towards us change from a Cinderella to an evil witch?' Gu Xingren knitted her brows as she clenched her fists tightly. Han Zihao raised his brows in interest, hearing her words. Did Feng Sheng make a mistake about her information? " And you,u Mister, aren't you the biggest businessman in the country? Can you only pay hospital bills in return for compensation for such a big accident?" she commented sarcastically while supporting her back against the elevated hospital bed. Han Zihao was surprised when she looked at him and commented sarcastically. A frown appeared on his face as it was the first time that someone had talked to him like this. Feng Sheng panicked, seeing the way the girl was acting. He came forward and looked at Gu Zhang, " Mr. Gu, what is this? How can you let your daughter disrespect Mr. Han?" Gu Zhang gritted his teeth and glared at Xu Nuan, " Xu Nuan, what the hell are you doing? You should be grateful to Mr. Han that he came all the way here to check on you and is willing to pay for your hospital bills in the form of compensation, despite it being your mistake. You should be careful while walking on the road. How can you jump in front of the car like this?" Feng Sheng rubbed his nose as he didn't want to scold Xu Nuan so harshly. He just wants him to stop her from disrespecting Mr. Han, but Gu Zhang's response was too intense. Xu Nuan looked up at Gu Zhang with a rare cold gaze and said in a low yet cold voice, " Who said that it was my fault? Who said I jumped in front of the car because I was careless or playful?"
