Gu Chen turned around to look at the person buried under the quilt, then got off the bed and closed the door. “Come out, she’s gone.”
Tao Yao sat up but didn’t get off the bed immediately. She only looked at Gu Chen who had hung the quilt up. “Gu Chen, am I so shameful?”
Gu Chen’s hand that was hanging the quilt paused for a moment.
Tao Yao got off the bed and tidied up her clothes. “I got it. I’ve caused you trouble these past few days,”Tao Yao said as she bowed ninety degrees. Before Gu Chen could react, she had already left.
Gu Chen’s act of hiding her just now was indeed very hurtful.
This was even more hurtful than rejecting her.
Gu Chen tightened his grip on the veil and forcefully pulled it down. However, no one could tell whether he was happy or angry from his expressionless face.
Hiding?
Did she not know what kind of person his aunt was?
If his aunt really saw this, she would be able to find out all eighteen generations of her ancestors at any moment. That was why he had asked her to hide.
Was there something wrong with this woman’s brain?
Mei Tezhu felt that their CEO had been in a bad mood for the past few days. He had been cursing people to death.
Hong Jing felt that their lawyer Tao had been in a bad mood recently. He had been working overtime to death.
On the third night of overtime, there was a new development in Chao Zuo’s case. They had found new evidence to prove that Chao Zuo was not the murderer, but there was still no way to prove that Qian Daming had a direct connection to his sister’s death.
However, as long as this was proved, there would be no problem with the inheritance case. As parents and daughters, they all had the right to inherit, so no one had the right to take Chao Jiajia’s share.
Hong Jing packed up her things and looked up at Tao Yao, who was not far away. “Tao Yao, aren’t you leaving yet?”
Tao Yao Glanced at the time. It was half past six, half an hour since she got off work. “I’ve finished reading these. You can go first. Be careful on your way.”
“Okay,”Hong Jing replied and left first.
Tao Yao looked at the documents in her hands and saw the message Lin Lin had sent her. He asked if she wanted to bring her supper. She would go back to the office to get something later.
Tao Yao: Supper?
Tao Yao: do you think I want to stay up all night?
Lin Lin: you do look like this, don’t you
Tao Yao looked at her watch on the table. It was already the third day since she had parted with Gu Chen that day.
She looked a little different from her.
Tao Yao: No Need, I’ll be leaving soon.
Lin Lin: it’s said that today is young master Chen’s birthday. Aren’t you going
Gu Chen’s birthday. Yes, it was her birthday tomorrow, how could she not know.
But Gu Chen probably didn’t want her to go. After all, such a big place was his family, and there was no place to hide her.
There was still the gift she had prepared in the drawer. She reached out and took it out, afraid that she wouldn’t be able to give it away.
Just as Tao Yao was thinking about it, a small head popped in from the office door. Tao Yao looked up and saw the sound of a cat.
“Gu Yi?”
Gu Yi came in with a little cloth bag in her arms. She looked around and pursed her lips. “I waited for sister Tao downstairs for a long time, but she didn’t come down. I thought sister Tao wasn’t at work today.”
Gu Yi was cute and likable. She had been pampered and brought up, but there was no trace of arrogance in her. It was hard to dislike her.
“No, I’m just working overtime. I’ll be leaving soon. Why are you here?”Tao Yao looked at the little girl who ran up to her and reached out to pet the kitten she was holding.
Xiao Guyi seemed a little embarrassed as she pursed her lips.
“What’s Wrong?”Asked Tao Yao Nicely.
