Gu Xue paused for a moment, there is clearly conflicted and struggling in her eyes. But from the corner of her eyes, she glanced at Xu Zhanwang, who was still full of anger, so she spoke the second half of her sentence, “Has something to do with my father.”
These few words were really out of Xu Weilai’s expectations, causing her to subconsciously asked back, “Your father? Gu Xiong?”
Even Xu Zhanwang turned around and looked at her.
“Yes.”Gu Xue nodded lightly, “I can’t 100% guarantee , but it’s definitely related. Because… because the day after my grandfather fell into a coma, I was worried about him, so I didn’t sleep well the whole night. I woke up very early. When I passed by the study, I heard my father talking on the phone, but my head was a little muddled at the time, so I didn’t hear it clearly. I only vaguely heard things related to the GU Corporation and the company.”
“At that time, I didn’t think too much about it and quickly walked over. After that, I went downstairs to the kitchen to ask the maid to make me some breakfast. She wasn’t in the kitchen, so I went to the guest room to look for her. I saw that my father was holding an unwrapped express delivery in his hand. Then, I heard him call brother Yu to meet him at the company.”
“After the call, he left in haste, didn’t even hear me calling out to him. It seemed like he was in a hurry to do something!”
Gu Xue tried hard to recall the details of that day and said one by one, “My father dotes on me very much. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t ignore me. There must have been something important that day.”
“Moreover, after my father came back that day, he was very happy. Not just that day, but he was very happy for a period of time after that. When he saw me, he even gave me a lot of pocket money to spend as I wished.”
“I originally thought that he had encountered something good, but Grandpa became a vegetable and was unconscious. Wouldn’t it be abnormal for him to be so happy? Although I didn’t have any evidence to prove it, I have a hunch that brother Yu’s change must have something to do with my dad!”
“Hunch?”
Xu Zhanwang clearly didn’t believe Gu Xue’s words and thought that she was looking for an excuse for Gu Yu. His tone couldn’t help but carry a hint of mockery, “You’re saying things that have no evidence, yet you’re using your intuition to convince us? Are you too naive, or do you think we’re too stupid?”
Just as he finished speaking, Xu Weilai couldn’t take it anymore and kicked him. “If you don’t know how to speak properly, then get out of the car! Did I teach you to talk to girls like this? HMM? Didn’t you hate Gu Yu? And yet you learn his way of speaking?”
She didn’t want this younger brother anymore. Whoever wanted to take it, just take it!
“…”Xu Zhanwang could tolerate anything, but he definitely couldn’t tolerate Gu Yu.
Xu Zhanwang pursed his lips. Only then did he realize that Gu Xue’s face had turned pale from his rebuke. He was too angry just now, and said something bad. His voice softened and he said in a low voice, “I’m sorry, I went too far.”
Gu Xue squeezed out a smile and shook her head. “Forget it, you didn’t do it on purpose.”
Seeing this, Xu Weilai said, “Xiao Xue, did you see what that delivery is?”
Gu Xue’s looked back to her. She furrowed her brows and thought for a moment before replying, “It seems to be… a document!”
–
Gu Corporation, CEO’s office.
When Gu Yu walked in, Zuo Si was already leaning against the sofa, holding an ice pack to cover her face. When she saw him, her lips curled into a smile. “CEO Gu, I can’t take this punch for nothing.”
Gu Yu stood in front of her and looked down at her from above, not saying a word.
Zuo Si’s smile did not change, and her tone was as arrogant as ever. “You know what I want, give me an answer!”
