Back Then, I Adored You

Chapter 16 Treating You Well (6)

Gu Yusheng tossed a little hard, and Qin Zhi'ai couldn't get out of bed for several days.

Fortunately, Liang Doukou has no schedule recently, so Qin Zhi'ai doesn't have to go out, she can stay at home and rest well. It was already a week later when she recovered completely from that night of narrow escape.

During this week, Gu Yusheng was the same as before, still not going home every day.

Apart from himself, only the people in the old house know about Gu Yusheng's landline.

Ever since Qin Zhi'ai moved into this family, Gu Yusheng acted as if this family did not exist, and never called the family once.

Therefore, this phone, except that it will be used for calls from the old house, is no different from a decoration at other times.

That afternoon, when the phone rang, the housekeeper was making fruit tea in the kitchen. Qin Zhi'ai, who happened to be sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV, thought it was a call from the old house, so she picked it up without checking the caller ID.

Before the receiver was raised to her ear, a concise sentence came from the phone: "Let her get ready. I'll pick her up at six o'clock tonight."

It was Gu Yusheng's voice... Qin Zhi'ai's movement of raising the microphone suddenly stopped.

Did he regard the person who answered the phone as a housekeeper? The "she" in his mouth refers to her, right?

Just when Qin Zhi'ai was hesitating whether to answer "Oh" by herself, or to go to the kitchen with the receiver and ask the housekeeper to answer "Oh", Gu Yusheng on the other end of the phone seemed to sense something was wrong, and suddenly spoke again, saying: Obviously much colder: "Why did you answer the phone?"

He didn't give her a chance to answer at all, and then said again: "Grandpa's order, you must attend the charity gala held at the Beijing Hotel tonight!"

When he said this, he deliberately bit down on the word "Grandpa". Although he didn't have any extra words other than to inform her, Qin Zhi'ai still understood the meaning of his words.

He thought that this charity gala was the grandfather she went to and asked him to take her there...

As if to confirm her guess, Gu Yusheng said again in a calm voice: "Your timing is really good. I just came back from a business trip when Grandpa called... Heh..."

As he spoke, he chuckled, very low and short, Qin Zhi'ai could still feel his mockery through the phone.

Afterwards, he quickly hung up the phone.

No wonder it was very quiet this week. There was no phone call from the old house. It turned out that Gu Yusheng was on a business trip...

Now as soon as he came back, grandpa immediately seized the opportunity to drag her and him together.

Qin Zhi'ai knew that grandpa had good intentions, but... it happened that it was grandpa's kindness again and again that made her miserable!

The nightmare a week ago still haunts her. If she really meets Gu Yusheng tonight, she doesn't know what methods he will use to torment her.

The previous two times, it happened so suddenly that she had no chance to avoid it, but this time it's different... She can't send her home to accept that miserable situation knowing that she will be miserable tonight.

Qin Zhi'ai tilted her head calmly, staring at the bright afternoon sun outside the window for a moment, the word "business trip" that Gu Yusheng just said to herself suddenly flashed in her mind, and then she seemed to think of something, quickly He picked up the landline and made a call to go out.
