795 Addition of doting

Butler Mo released a troubled sigh. "Master Gu. I have told you time and again. You cannot be so controlling of young master's life and uncaring about his choices."

"So should I let my son get fooled!?" Gu Rong glared at him.

"Master, the case with Ma Dong is understandable. But not when it came to his career path or Miss. Zhou Ai. Those decisions of young master's were never wrong."

"They are wrong..." Gu Rong breathed hard. "Yating would have never gotten any happiness with Zhou Ai. I will always be against their relationship!"

He laughed mockingly, his hands shivering. "There is no peace and happiness with women like her."

"Mr. Liu Jun would have some different opinion on it."

"He would understand it one day soon enough." Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

Gu Rong stared at his unfinished food and apologized to Butler Mo. "I am really sorry, but I don't feel hungry. Even though you worked so hard to make dinner..."

He smiled. "Like father, like son indeed."

"Don't remind me of Yating! The audacity to just up and leave the dinner table!"

Butler Mo said, "Master, you should give him some time. You know how much he cherished his friendship with Ma Dong and how much that brought guilt in him after that night. So I suggest you let some few days go by and then apologize to him."

His mouth fell open. "Why should I apologize to that brat? I was opening his eyes to reality!"

"Not in the right way, Master. You were far from being sensitive."

"Sensitive?" Gu Rong burst into laughter and looked up at the ceiling with a wry gaze.

"There is no place for sensitivity if you want to survive this world. It's only hard truth out there. You have to buckle up, accept it and move on. The world would otherwise just devour you."

Butler Mo said nothing in response.

Gu Rong exhaled a breath and said, "Pour me some drink, will you?"

"Will you drink yourself to sleep, Master Gu?"

He smiled. "That's the only way to get sleep tonight, Mo."

Zhu villa.

Chyou returned home from her date and collapsed back on the couch, tired but happy. Yin had planned one of the most romantic evenings for tonight that couldn't make her happier. He arranged for a beautifully lit dinner table accompanied by her favorite music that played in the background and the fragrance of her favorite flowers that refreshed the air with its vitality. And of course food that made her stomach growl and mouth drool.

"I am stuffed!"

"Me too!"

Her brother, Zhu Xiang, jumped on the couch with a big bowl of ice cream pressed closer to his chest.

Chyou gasped. "What the hell? Do we have ice cream here? Nobody told me!"

"What is it? What is it?" Xiang asked while eating ice cream on her face.

Chyou unpacked the paper bag and her jaw dropped. There was a small box of ice cream neatly stacked inside. She took it out with a note attached to it.

'Nobody will ever know if you quietly dispose of the evidence. - GY.'

"Who is GY?" Xiang asked, speechless.

Chyou brightened with the shine of a million stars. "Gu Yating! OMG! He couldn't give me ice cream back at the set so he had it delivered here!" She laughed, reading his note.

"That's unfair! Why do you have so many people doting on you?" Xiang looked hurt.

"Hah! I have made extremely precious friends~"

The parents were staring at the ice cream box with an unreadable expression.

Chyou held it protectively to her chest. "Mom, you won't let Yating's kindness to waste, right?"

Xiang chimed in. "Don't worry sis. I will happily eat that ice cream. His kindness wouldn't go to waste."

"Hey don't you eye my ice cream now! Eat your own!"

Chyou grinned. "I will head back to my room now and call Yating to thank him~!"

Caihong raised her brow, watching her daughter merrily hop back to her room. She eyed a glance at Xiaosi. "Seems like one more person has been added to dote upon her."

Xiang cleared his throat. "But he is just a FRIEND, right?"

Xiaosi grabbed a spoonful of Xiang's ice cream for himself. "Only time will tell."

"Oof. Why isn't Yating picking up his phone?" Chyou pouted.

It was finally on the fourth try that she heard a click.

"Finally! Where were you Gu Yating? I want to express my immense gratitude!" She beamed.

There wasn't any response.

She blinked. "Yating? Why aren't you saying anything?"

No answer.

She felt a bad foreboding the more he remained silent. She thought what she heard was the sound of his shivering breaths.

"...Hey."

It was clear that he struggled a lot to say that one word that came out as a trembling voice.

Chyou made her decision at that moment. She kept her ice cream aside and asked, "Tell me where you are Yating."
