Ji Heng’s anger clearly exceeded their expectations.
From the time they met Ji Heng, he had always been indifferently stable, his emotions not outwardly evident; one couldn’t tell from his expression whether he was happy or angry.
When Xu En first visited Xiangcheng, Ji Mulan had provoked Ji Heng due to Bai Lian’s issue, but even then, Ji Heng remained exceptionally composed.
He had witnessed Bai Lian’s imposing aura and had even wondered who Bai Lian really resembled.
At this moment, Ji Heng’s narrowed eyes and the reined-in aura of his body made even Xu En reluctant to meet his gaze.
"Grandpa, please don’t be angry, don’t be angry," Pu Xiaohan reacted, going over to pat Ji Heng’s back, "You must be fine, we are also waiting for Principal Shi’s news, Third Brother Xu and Sister Chen are following up on it as well."
Ning Xiao was inquiring about this matter with Zhou Wenqing and Shun Yu.
Beside them, Xu En, looking at Ji Heng’s face, thought that Pu Xiaohan’s reassurance was indeed not wrong.
Ji Heng’s expression was not one of anxiety, but rather...
Anger.
It was very strange.
Ji Heng calmed himself for a moment before heading to his own room.
He reached into the bottom of a trunk and took out a sandalwood box which, if Bai Lian were here, she would certainly recognize; he had shown it to her before.
The box still contained a pile of photographs.
The woman in the black and white photos was gentle and beautiful. Ji Heng ran his hands over these photos, then reached to the bottom of the box.
He took out a small badge from inside.
When he came back out, Xu En saw that Ji Heng was holding a cellphone in his hand.
Ji Heng stopped and asked Xu En about the current situation of the Xu Family.
"It’s alright," Xu En’s private equity mostly worked with overseas partners, Bai Lian wasn’t legally included in the Xu Clan, nor was she his stepdaughter, so the impact wasn’t significant, "Things aren’t looking great for President Mu for the time being."
But it was different for the Mu Family; Xuan Kang was directly cooperating with the Mu Family.
It wasn’t too favorable for the Mu Family’s medical research institute.
Ji Heng pursed his lips, "Let’s go, I need you to drive me somewhere."
Zhang Shize and Pu Xiaohan hadn’t learned to drive yet, so of everyone in room 103, Xu En was the only one who could drive.
Xu En quickly grabbed the car keys and followed Ji Heng.
Ji Heng and Xu En left the house, while Zhang Shize and Pu Xiaohan stayed in room 103, exchanging puzzled looks.
