Chapter 8: There Is a God on the Wall (8)
"It's because the old man couldn't sleep at night and wanted to go out for a walk, so he simply brought you the bracelet." Zhang Ma followed Qin Zhi'ai into the living room.
"Grandpa is here too?" Qin Zhi'ai frowned slightly, and before Mama Zhang could answer, she saw the butler holding a steaming cup of calming tea and handing it to Mr. Gu who was sitting on the sofa.
Qin Zhi'ai hastily said again, "Grandpa."
"Yeah." Mr. Gu answered a little vaguely because he took a sip of tea, and after he swallowed the tea, he said aloud, "Why did you come back so late?"
After finishing speaking, Mr. Gu realized that something was wrong, frowned, and then glanced at the yard outside the floor-to-ceiling window. He didn't see Gu Yusheng's car, and continued to ask, "Where is Yu Sheng? He didn't talk to you?" Come back together?"
Following Mr. Gu's continuous inquiries, his expression obviously became displeased: "Is he still the same as before, leaving you alone at home, regardless of his care, and not coming back all day?"
"No..." Qin Zhi'ai replied to Mr. Gu's words without any hesitation.
The reason why Gu Yusheng acted so seriously in the old house tonight was just to make grandpa feel at ease that he and her lived in harmony.
If grandpa knew that he and her were not as friendly as he saw, he would definitely blame Gu Yusheng. In the end, it was her who suffered.
What's more, last month he fell asleep so cruelly and she gave her medicine, which was already a great insult to her. Now how dare she let grandpa know the real situation between him and her, and then go to her own Take the shame?
Qin Zhi'ai's brain was spinning quickly to find an excuse, and at the same time she pulled out a calm smile at Mr. Gu: "Yu Sheng just received a call temporarily, saying that there was a problem with the company and he had to work overtime.
"Yu Sheng originally wanted to send me home, but I wanted to take a walk, so he let him put me at the gate of the community and walked back by himself."
Facing Mr. Gu's thoughtful eyes, Qin Zhi'ai didn't feel nervous at all. She spoke again in a leisurely manner. The expression on her face was so calm that no one could see the slightest sign of lying: "I'm fine for the rest of my life." Some of them will go home, if Grandpa doesn’t believe you, ask the housekeeper.”
As she said that, Qin Zhi'ai gave the housekeeper a look.
The housekeeper immediately echoed with interest: "Yes, old sir, when Mr. Gu is not busy, he always goes home."
"That's good..." Hearing the housekeeper's words, Mr. Gu's expression finally eased, and he stood up while talking: "...I'm here for nothing, just wandering around, it's getting late, I'm going back too."
Knowing that Mr. Gu was deceived by herself, Qin Zhi'ai secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Grandpa, I will see you off."
...
Qin Zhi'ai stood at the door of the house and watched Mr. Gu's car drive out of the hospital door before turning around and going back upstairs.
The butler first made Qin Zhi'ai a cup of hot milk before going out of the house to lock the door of the compound. Unexpectedly, Mr. Gu's car was parked outside the door and hadn't left yet.
The butler was taken aback, but before he could recover, Mr. Gu's car window fell, and Mama Zhang called out in a low voice, "Xiao Yang, Mr. Gu is looking for you."
The butler hurried forward, and respectfully shouted into the car: "Mr."
