Xu Weilai only saw Gu Yu’s reply after she finished with her bath. ‘I will be very busy this time so I will be staying in my office. I will not go back to the apartment. Take care of yourself too. Eat well, rest well, and exercise regularly. Mrs. Lin will supervise you.’
Xu Weilai couldn’t help but pout after she finished reading the message.
He was always so busy, but he didn’t know how to take care of himself and rest more! Instead, he kept supervising her closely to make sure that she rest well. He was able to do whatever he wanted, but couldn’t bear the thought of letting her work. How domineering!
Although Xu Weilai was complaining, she couldn’t help but raise the corners of her lips.
Gu Yu’s nervousness and concern made her feel appreciated. In the past, she didn’t dare to be greedy. If Gu Yu truly wanted to stay married to her, she hoped that while she loved him so dearly, he would reciprocate the feeling even a little.
She put down her phone and laid on the bed. She tilted her body to face the side Gu Yu slept on and opened her mouth to say in a soft and sweet voice, “Goodnight, Gu Yu.”
She hoped that every night from now on, she would be able to say goodnight to him.

Xu Weilai thought that when Gu Yu said ‘this time’, it would at most last for a week or half a month. After waiting at home for more than ten days, however, Gu Yu still didn’t come home.
That wasn’t all. When she called Gu Yu, Assistant Lin was always the one who picked up the call. When she sent messages directly to Gu Yu, he seldom replied to her if even at all.
Xu Weilai couldn’t remain calm anymore. She started to feel a tinge of uneasiness.
Why did this situation seem so familiar? It was just like three years ago when Gu Yu suddenly started giving her the cold shoulder.
At that time, Gu Yu said that he was busy too. He was so busy that he didn’t have time to see her, call her, or even message her.
Was Gu Yu truly that busy?
Xu Weilai bit her lips and thought for a moment. She felt that taking the initiative was better than overthinking the situation! Even a patient person like her would feel agitated after waiting for so long.
If Gu Yu couldn’t come back to the apartment, she could go to his office to look for him and check if he truly was so busy. If he was, she would no longer need to worry over it. She could just wait at his office. No matter how busy he was, he still needed to eat. She could use this spare time to talk to him about Yun Rou!
This time, Xu Weilai was smart. She didn’t call or sent a message to inform Gu Yu that she was coming. Instead, she chose a sunny and bright afternoon to personally prepare Gu Yu’s favorite dishes. Then, she carried the lunchbox left home in her small little car!
Since nobody can see Gu Yu without scheduling an appointment, Xu Weilai only took out her phone when she reached the lobby of the Gu Corporation. She gave Assistant Lin a call and asked him to come down to fetch her. With that, she added that she wanted to give Gu Yu a surprise so she told Assistant Lin not to tell Gu Yu that she came!
When Assistant Lin suddenly received Xu Weilai’s call, a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back as he slowly grew more fearful.
What… what was going on? Why did young mistress rush all the way to the office without any warning?
He wasn’t stupid. His big boss didn’t say anything, but he suddenly and voluntarily requested to increase the workload. He also hadn’t gone back to his apartment for many days. Anyone with a brain could tell that more problems arose between his boss and young mistress. His boss didn’t want to see the young mistress.
Should he find a reason to reject the young mistress?
That wouldn’t have felt right. It would’ve been possible if the young mistress was only calling him, but she had already arrived in the lobby of the building. The young mistress was smart; if he didn’t let her see Gu Yu, she would quickly notice that something was amiss.
Assistant Lin thought about what to do for some time, but he couldn’t arrive at a decision. In the end, he decided to stand firmly on his boss’s side and asked for Gu Yu’s opinion first.
He walked into the office and asked, “Mr. Gu, the young mistress is here, waiting in the lobby. She wants to see you. Would you like to see her?”
