Give Me an Answer (1)
These few words were really out of Xu Weilai's expectations, and caused her to reflexively ask in return, "Your father? Gu Xiong?"
Even Xu Zhanwang turned around and looked at her.
"Yes." Gu Xue nodded lightly. "I can't guarantee 100%, but it's definitely connected to him. Because... because the day after my grandfather fell into a coma, I was worried about my grandfather, so I didn't sleep well the entire 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 housekeeper 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 package in his hand. Then, I heard him call Brother Yu to meet him at the company."
"After the call, he left directly. He 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 related them 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 only that day, but he was also very happy for a period of time after that. Whenever he saw me, he would even give me a lot of allowance to spend as I wished."
"I originally thought that he had encountered something happy, but Grandpa was in a vegetative state and was unconscious. Wouldn't it be abnormal for him to be so happy? Although I didn't find 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 making an excuse for Gu Yu. His tone had a hint of mockery as he said, "You're saying that you have no evidence, yet you're using your hunch to convince us? Are you naive, or do you think we're that 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? Don't you hate Gu Yu? Then why did you learn his way of speaking?"
She didn't want this younger brother anymore. Whoever wanted to take him in might as well take him in!
"..." Xu Zhanwang could tolerate anything, but he definitely couldn't tolerate her saying that he was like Gu Yu.
Xu Zhanwang pursed his lips. Only then did he realize that Gu Xue's face had turned pale from his rebuke. In his fit of anger, he went overboard with his words. 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."
Upon seeing this, Xu Weilai said, "Xiao Xue, did you see what that express delivery package was?"
Gu Xue's gaze turned back to her. She furrowed her brows and thought about it for a moment before replying, "It seemed to be... a document!"
-
Gu Corporation, CEO's office.
When Gu Yu walked in, Zuo Si was already leaning against the sofa while 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."
Not saying a word, Gu Yu stood in front of her and looked down at her from above.
Zuo Si's smile didn't waver, and her tone was as arrogant as ever. "You know what I want, so give me an answer!"
