After receiving the certificate, she was pinched and doted on by the wealthy heir.

"no!"

Jiang Na flatly refused.

Xia Taozhi raised her eyes quietly: "If you don't let me see my dad, I won't give you a dime."

"you--"

Facing her stepdaughter's cold eyes, Jiang Na understood that Xia Taozhi was serious this time.

After hesitating again and again, she didn't know what she thought of, and finally relented: "I can make a video call to you and let you see what your father looks like now, but... you have to give me 2 yuan today!"

"can."

The most important thing right now is to get the definite news that dad is still safe.

Xia Taozhi couldn't care less.

Soon, Jiang Na made a video call, and the screen lit up. Xia Taozhi saw her father lying on the hospital bed.

The instruments around Xia Mingcheng were running normally, and it seemed that he was fine.

Xia Taozhi's eyes heated up, and before Jiang Na came back to her senses, she quickly took out her phone and took several pictures.

Jiang Na panicked and quickly hung up the video.

"You, what are you doing?"

"Nothing else to do, just take some photos of my dad and look at them when I miss him."

Jiang Na was skeptical about such rhetoric and could not find any flaws for a while.

"I don't have that much money here right now, so let me take out another ten thousand from my credit card and give it to you, and you can take care of the emergency first."

Xia Taozhi changed the subject and mentioned money, and Jiang Na's attention was immediately diverted.

"Ten thousand? Didn't we agree on twenty thousand?" Jiang Na was unhappy.

"Just ten thousand, do you want me? I've told you that I have no money now. Even if you threaten my dad, I can't change the money." Xia Taozhi said coldly.

"Ten thousand, just ten thousand..." Jiang Na was unwilling to give in, but there was nothing she could do.

When transferring the money to her stepmother, Xia Taozhi kept an eye on it and added two words in the note - loan.

Jiang Na, who only wanted money, didn't even notice.

She only knew that it was very easy to ask for money from her stepdaughter. The money came too quickly, so naturally she would not cherish it.

She didn't even finish her meal before she left happily.

Xia Taozhi followed her secretly.

Jiang Na was very vigilant and soon got into a car, but Xia Taozhi lost track of her.

She called Cheng Kele, but before she spoke, her friend sounded anxious on the other end of the phone.

"Even if you don't call me, I'm still going to find you. Your stepmother owes a lot of gambling debts, and she almost mortgaged your old house."

Xia Taozhi's breath tightened.

She had already guessed that things would not be that simple, but she still felt dizzy when she heard the truth.

After calming down, she said, "Jiang Na can't take away the house. My father's and my names are on it."

"So she will definitely find a solution elsewhere. You should be careful. How is your dad doing?"

"She...hid my dad." Xia Taozhi smiled bitterly.

"What?!" Cheng Kele couldn't help scolding, "Why is this woman so cruel!? Why doesn't she die? She has tricked you for so many years, and she still wants to blackmail you with your father."

"I can't help it... I only have my father as a relative."

She barely suppressed the turbulent uneasiness in her heart and sent the photo to her friend: "Please check for me and see if you can tell which hospital it is from this photo."

Cheng Keke's brother has a wide range of connections and can help.

She couldn't really just rely on Han Xiao.

What if that husband doesn't come in handy...

Some people really can't bear to talk about it. As she was talking, another call came in - it was Han Xiao.

She hurriedly ended the call with Cheng Kele, but before the call was connected, the other party hung up again.

Then a text message from Han Xiao came in.

——Come quickly, room 8643 of the Royal Hotel.

Two seconds later, a second message was received.

It’s still Han Xiao’s.

He said: I'll give you two 10 minutes. If not, I will throw all the news about your father that I found out today into the trash can.

These words made Xia Taozhi's heart pick up in her throat.

Not caring too much, she went straight to the Royal Hotel.

When he reached the door, a force pulled Xia Taozhi directly in.

Before he could stand firm, he heard a delicate voice speaking.

"Oh, Mr. Han, what do you think we should do...it seems that reporters are squatting outside, and they can't get out."

Xia Taozhi looked up and saw a little beauty sitting on the big bed, dressed coquettishly and with a beauty mark on her chin.

But her hair was messy and she wasn't even dressed properly. The scene was so fragrant that Xia Taozhi couldn't help but feel her heart beat faster.

This beauty looks familiar.

She narrowed her eyes and recognized him for a while, and found that the other person turned out to be a small Internet celebrity who had become popular not long ago and currently has tens of millions of people online.

She has also watched the videos of small internet celebrities before, and there is still a big gap between the online version and the real version.

Han Xiao was not wearing a jacket, a few buttons of his shirt were missing, and there were ambiguous lipstick marks on the collar.He lit a cigarette and looked at Xia Taozhi: "You are in the same room as me."

Xia Taozhi raised her eyebrows slightly, as if she didn't quite understand.

The little internet celebrity couldn't help it anymore: "Young Master Han... what's so good about this woman? Since those reporters are already here, it means they must know something. Otherwise... let's make it public."

Before she could finish speaking, Xia Taozhi asked: "What are you disclosing? Your relationship with Han Xiao?"

The little internet celebrity was so proud that her white and tender shoulders were exposed by her clothes. Her deliberately provocative approach seemed a bit disgusting to Xia Taozhi.

"What do you think?" The little internet celebrity pursed her red lips, "Of course it's acknowledging the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend. Anyway, a man as outstanding as Mr. Han must have more than one woman around him."

"Then do you know that he is already married? If it were made public, you would be the mistress." Xia Taozhi said coldly.

"Hahaha, what's wrong with the mistress? As long as it's true love, what are you afraid of?" The little internet celebrity twisted her long legs and acted coquettishly at the man on the side, "Young Master Han, the online drama you recommended me to go to has already started. , people also need some heat."

Xia Taozhi glanced at the man sitting firmly over there.

Seeing that Han Xiao didn't speak, she knew better.

He quickly walked to the bed, picked up the clothes that had fallen on the floor, and put them directly on the little internet celebrity.Her movements were fast and accurate, and she was so strong that the little internet celebrity was unable to react due to her, and her upper body was directly trapped in her coat.

"You——! Mr. Han, look at this woman, she doesn't take you seriously at all!"

The little internet celebrity started acting coquettishly.

Xia Taozhi ignored her and threw the dressed little internet celebrity out the door together with her shoes.

"The reporter is downstairs. You can explain why you are in the hotel at noon. I won't worry about the rest."

The little internet celebrity's face suddenly changed with anger, and the next second she sneered: "Why should I listen to you? The room was opened by me and Young Master Han. Who do you think you are?"

"I am nothing, but I can throw you out, but you - you are not qualified."

Xia Taozhi looked back, determined not to let someone pretend to be dead, "Han Xiao, come here and tell your confidante, who am I?"

She didn't forget that this man asked for a secret marriage, and she couldn't break the agreement first.

The man blew out a puff of smoke, and his handsome features were surrounded by a haze of smoke, making it difficult to see his deep eyes.

"Listen to Mrs. Han." He opened his thin lips and uttered a few words.

Xia Taozhi's heart skipped a beat.

"Haha, it turns out to be Han, Mrs. Han..." The little internet celebrity suddenly turned pale.

With a bang, the door closed.

Naturally, someone from Han Xiao took over the door. Xia Taozhi didn't believe that someone like him would go out without his assistant.

These assistants must be confidants and don't need her to worry about them.

She stood in front of Han Xiao: "What are you going to do next? I am the one who comes here to open a room with you, not the woman just now, right?"

Han Xiao pressed the unfinished cigarette into the ashtray: "Smart."

He stood up and came closer.

Xia Taozhi smelled the smell of cigarettes and alcohol on him, and subconsciously frowned in disgust.

A few days after receiving the certificate, she noticed that this man had a proud and luxurious noble temperament deep in his bones. Now it seems that he does not look like a rigorous lawyer, but is simply a playboy.

She took a few steps back, trying to gain some distance.

Unexpectedly, the man moved faster than her. He grabbed the girl's slender waist with his big hands and took her directly into the big bed next to her...
