Zhou Jingzhe did not expect Han Jingchen to react this way; didn't she just want to get to know his daughter?
Indeed, Han Jingchen was overly worried, painting Zhou Jingzhe's behavior today as suspicious and fearing this person might cause trouble for Xinyan.
So, he simply didn't want her to get in touch with Xinyan.
Besides, it's enough for him to protect his own daughter; how could an acquaintance of hers have more influence than someone he knows?
What a brazen claim.
Su Jingsong called the steel mill while Han Jingchen went to the study to fetch something: "Hello, may I find Zhou Dongping?"
Zhou Dongping hurried over to answer the phone: "Hello, I'm Zhou Dongping, who is this?"
Su Jingsong didn't stand on ceremony: "Brother Zhou, it's Su Jingsong."
Zhou Dongping hadn't expected Su Jingsong to call: "Jingsong, why are you calling, is there something wrong?"
