Chapter 166 - I need payment for this injustice Part 4

Su Han was initially in a very good mood. He had investigated the address of Su Lin's so-called company headquarters and had even spat out the drink in his mouth when the address came in. 

Pfft… Such a remote corner of the city! Almost in the dumpy area! Serves her right!

But the man who had walked in with such a high and mighty attitude instantly flared up on seeing Runyan in such a position of power.

And as if that was not enough of a slap in the face, someone like him who manages the majority of the Su family's business handlings was running an errand for a nobody like her?? Ridiculous!!

So as soon as he entered the office, he immediately flew into a rage and lashed out on Runyan.

In the midst of his tantrum, Runyan, however, still maintained a calm and steady expression.

She patiently picked up the papers that had scattered everywhere and sat back in her chair as if nothing happened.

Her entire focus was on the papers in her hand, as patiently went through each and every single form, making sure even the smallest of details were accurate. 

Su Lin had already warned her beforehand that these people might play some cheap tricks on them.

For instance, getting the forms signed and attested, but changing some minor details in the forms.

And catching this small hole in the process, they could later arrive with the officials and get their manufacturing unit shut down for lack of proper paperwork.

Even though Runyan's brain was not as devious as Su Lin's to think about all these infinite sabotage possibilities, she was still part of the system and was learning all these nooks and corners slowly.

Looking at the woman's calm and steady nature, Su Han gritted his teeth. His head was covered with black lines.

Somehow, this reaction of hers seemed to be way more disrespectful, compared to if she had actually retorted back in anger.

He harrumphed in annoyance and sat back down in the chair with a thud.

Placing his chin on his hands clasped together, he silently observed the woman in front of him.

Her long black hair hung in loose curls, only slightly longer than her shoulder height.

With the morning rays of the sun ċȧrėssing her back, a tinge of auburn danced on the silky curls.

She had gentle and kind features, that lacked any sense of anger or hatred in them. Just looking at her could put anyone at ease.

Su Han frowned slightly as he felt guilt trickling down his conscience. He shouldn't have taken his anger out on her.

Even her office looked very warm and nurturing, with simple minimalistic decor.

The huge office window was adorned with several green potted plants arranged neatly on the windowsill.

Though they didn't have any colorful or showy flowers on them, the plants themselves seemed to be sort of energizing the room with a pleasant and uplifting mood.

Damn it. He had almost lost sight of who he was just because of plain dumb anger and that sŀut Su Lin. 

This pretty girl in front of him might not even know the entire truth about that villainess!

He planned to initially just dump the papers on her and get the hell out of there, but somehow ended up patiently waiting for the woman to finish perusing everything. 

His confused gaze seemed to be vaguely fixated on her and procrastinating about god knows what.

Only when Runyan loudly cleared her throat and clapped her hands together, Su Han snapped back into reality.

"Thanks. Everything looks good." Runyan beamed, as her lips curved into a gentle smile.

Su Han looked away in awkwardness, not being able to meet her gaze directly.

"Cough. Cough. If you say so. Don't blame me later." He stuttered and mumbled quickly, but his voice was much gentler than before.

Runyan simply nodded. She had not even registered his angry tone or his brattish behavior.

As far as she was concerned, Su Lin was her one and only priority.

When she had given up entirely on life itself, it was this random stranger who had dragged her back into the world and gave her a new warm and kind home.

She treated her better than her own sister ever did. The least she could do was make her proud and try her best to stand beside her and cheer her on.

Noticing the awkward silence that had suddenly enveloped them, Su Han abruptly stood up. 

"I am leaving then." He finally managed to look directly at Runyan and spat out his words.

"Thanks." Runyan again thanked him.

But much to Su Han's dismay, she didn't linger on him any longer. She fished out her phone and started dialing a number.

She was probably processing the papers that he had just given her.

Su Han heaved a huge sigh as he left the simple office room with his mind and emotions in turmoil.

He was not an angry or arrogant person by nature. But for some reason, he felt like he was the villain in this scenario.

He silently reprimanded himself for his rash behavior and walked towards the elevator.

When suddenly, a familiar figure greeted him, as she waltzed past him.

Su Lin looked like she was headed towards Runyan's office as well.

Just seeing that stupid face with a big stupid smile plastered on it, drove Su Han crazy.

"Damn it. Forget it. I hate her. And I hate everyone ȧssociated with her. Hmph."

Su Han angrily cursed under his breath as he quickly strode into the elevator and got the hell out of there.
