Chapter 54

Mr. Lü's car was hit!

After understanding the whole story, Gao Yuliang hung up the phone and stared blankly at his phone. Fangfang had been back in China for several years and even had a boyfriend, yet she hadn't contacted him even once in all these years.

"It seems Fangfang is still upset about what happened back then..."

Gao Yuliang murmured softly, his voice revealing a hint of helplessness and bitterness. Since his divorce from Teacher Wu, Fangfang had never returned home or contacted him in all these years.

Gao Yuliang knew that Fangfang resented him!

However, his divorce from Teacher Wu and subsequent marriage to Gao Xiaofeng was out of necessity. Many people believed that he married her because he was attracted to her beauty or admired her insights into the history of the Ming Dynasty.

How is that possible?

If he liked beautiful women, he would have gone to learn foreign languages ​​with his former secretary Chen Qingquan long ago. How could he only like Gao Xiaofeng?

If you're appreciating Gao Xiaofeng's insights into Ming history, that's even more absurd. Professor Wu is an expert on Ming history; is there any comparison?

Marrying Gao Xiaofeng was simply his way of showing loyalty to Zhao Lichun, nothing more!

Fortunately, the problems have all been resolved, and Gao Yuliang is now willing to open up to his daughter and resolve their inner conflicts.

"Fangfang works at the Academy of Sciences..."

The thought of his daughter, whom he hadn't seen for six years, made Gao Yuliang impatient. As for his daughter's marriage to her boyfriend, he would take care of it as long as the two girls were in love.

Opening his contact list, Gao Yuliang found the phone number of Bian Chongyang, the president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and dialed it.

"Mr. Bian, I am Gao Yuliang."

"Director Gao called me, is there some technical problem that requires our Academy of Sciences' assistance?"

"Professor Bian, it's not a problem with the project, but rather I have some personal matters I'd like your help with." Knowing that these technical talents were straightforward, Gao Yuliang didn't mince words and asked directly, "I'd like to ask if there's a staff member at the Academy of Sciences named Gao Fangfang?"

"Wait a minute, let me look." Bian Chongyang shouted on the other end of the phone without even hanging up, "Xiao Wu, go check if there's anyone named Gao Fangfang at the Academy of Sciences..."

Two minutes later, Bian Chongyang said, "Director Gao, Gao Fangfang is indeed a staff member of the Academy of Sciences. What do you need her for?"

Gao Yuliang was excited and said in a trembling voice, "Elder Bian, when I get to the Academy of Sciences later, could you ask Comrade Gao Fangfang for a leave of absence so that she can see me?"

"Okay, call me when you get here!"

After checking the time, Gao Yuliang realized it was lunchtime. He tidied his clothes and got up to head to the Academy of Sciences.

Half an hour later, in the courtyard of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Gao Yuliang and Bian Lao paced back and forth downstairs after speaking, feeling both excited and apprehensive.

He was thrilled to finally see his daughter again after six years!

He was worried that his daughter would still resent him and refuse to forgive him!

Before long, a familiar figure appeared at the entrance of the Academy of Sciences Research Center.

Their eyes met, and Gao Yuliang's eyes reddened slightly. This was the person he had been longing for day and night, who had appeared in his dreams more than once.

At the doorway, Gao Fangfang saw Gao Yuliang, her eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face. But she didn't say a word and turned to leave.

Gao Yuliang knew his daughter was still resentful of him, so he reached out to stop her and hurriedly said, "Fangfang, I'm divorced."

Gao Fangfang paused, her face filled with disbelief, but she still turned around and asked, "Are you serious? You're not lying to me?"

"Really, I'm not lying to you!" Gao Yuliang looked at his daughter with doting eyes and smiled, "I got divorced a few days ago!"

"If that's really the case, then I'll reluctantly forgive you." Gao Fangfang smiled broadly, skipping over to Gao Yuliang and taking his arm. "Old Gao, will you treat me to dinner?"

……

After finishing his meal, Gao Yuliang sent his daughter back to work at the research institute, and then returned to the Development and Reform Commission, where he sat in his office deep in thought.

My daughter has forgiven me, which is good news, but there's a problem that needs to be solved.

That's my daughter's wedding!

Regardless of whether the marriage goes through or not, she must meet the man's family. For no other reason than to know why this family looks down on her daughter!

"Director of the Agriculture Department, Meng Derun, and the Finance Department..."

Taking out his phone, Gao Yuliang called Qian Cheng, the head of the finance department. "Minister Qian, this is Gao Yuliang. Do you have time tonight? Let's have dinner together?"

"Oh dear, I was just about to invite Director Gao over; this meal has to be on me!"

After exchanging a few pleasantries and hanging up the phone, Gao Yuliang remembered that he still owed Secretary Hao Le a meal, so he invited Hao Le to join him for a dinner party.

After getting off work in the afternoon, Gao Yuliang did not go back to the Zhou family home. Instead, he took President Zhou's car to a place called "Moonlight Lodge" in the suburbs.

When Gao Yuliang arrived, Minister Qian Cheng was already there. The two chatted and laughed, and soon General Manager Lü's secretary, Hao Le, arrived.

Hao Le got out of the car and apologized to Gao Yuliang and Qian Cheng, "I'm sorry, you two, something came up and I was delayed. Sorry to keep you waiting."

Gao Yuliang laughed and said, "Don't mention it, we just arrived too."

Qian Cheng chimed in, "Yes, yes, we just arrived."

The three walked into the restaurant chatting and laughing. Although Hao Le was the lowest-ranking among them, he held the highest position, after all, Hao Le represented President Lü!

At the dinner table, the three first had a routine discussion about funding for new energy vehicles, then talked about new energy vehicle brands, and finally discussed the development history of new energy vehicles in foreign countries.

Midway through the meal, an unexpected incident occurred!

"Squeak... Bang!"

With the sound of tires rubbing against the ground, a loud bang followed. The three realized something was wrong and rushed out of the restaurant.

A black Audi suddenly appeared out of nowhere, violently rammed into Qian Cheng's car, and crashed directly into the Hongqi car with the license plate ending in 003, then veered sideways more than a meter away.

However, when the three of them looked at the damaged Mr. Lü's car, they all knew... this was a serious matter!

Mr. Lü's driver had already subdued the intoxicated driver who caused the accident. Upon seeing Gao Yuliang and his group emerge from the hotel, the driver reported to them, "Boss, he's been drinking!"

Looking at the young man in a well-tailored suit who was so drunk he could barely stand, Hao Le and Qian Cheng exchanged a glance. They clearly recognized the young man and saw the surprise in each other's eyes!

Gao Yuliang had no time to pay attention to them. He was extremely worried. The car was assigned to him by President Lü. Now that the car had been hit, would President Lü have a problem with him?

After hesitating for a moment, Gao Yuliang decided to take responsibility, saying, "I am to blame for what happened. I'll call General Manager Lü and explain the situation."

Unexpectedly, Hao Le, the secretary to General Manager Lü, grabbed Gao Yuliang's hand and said in a serious voice, "This call is inappropriate for you. He is Wang Gan's grandson and Sha Ruijin's son!"

"You're from Handong, after all, so you should avoid the risks and let me handle this!"
