“If there were no report about you and Yang last night, you could clarify it yourself. But it was reported. If you clarify it now, everyone will think you’re trying to find excuses for yourself. I think you should go see Old Master Gu.”

...

Gu Yusheng had a meeting this morning, and it was 11:00 a.m. by the time it ended.

As he returned to his office for a quick rest, an HR manager and a marketing manager followed him. While those two managers were still conferring with Gu Yusheng in his office, Xiaowang let himself in and nodded to greet them, before walking to Gu Yusheng and whispering in his ear, “Master Gu, Miss Liang is at your grandfather’s hospital now.”

Immediately, Gu Yusheng’s phone on the desk started to ring.

Gu Yusheng and Xiaowang both glanced at the phone to see who was calling—Grandpa Gu.

Gu Yusheng pretended that he didn’t know his grandfather was calling him and set the phone on silent mode. He nodded at Xiaowang to let him know he got it and continued talking with the two managers.

After they left, Gu Yusheng picked up his phone and was alerted to more than 30 missed calls, all of them from his grandfather.

Gu Yusheng raised his arm up to check the time, noting it was already lunch time, and then dialed the internal line on his desk to let Xiaowang know. He walked out of his office with his cell phone in hand and waited for Xiaowang outside the office door to go to the company cafeteria together.

Gu Yusheng’s cell phone kept vibrating throughout lunch.

Old Master Gu started to call Xiaowang after finally giving up on reaching Gu Yusheng.

Xiaowang took his cell phone out to check who was calling him and then raised his phone in front of Gu Yusheng. After Xiaowang realized Gu Yusheng had no intention to speak to his grandfather, Xiaowang answered the call.

He apologized and explained that Gu Yusheng was in an extended meeting that required he not be distracted by his cell phone. He continued to promise Old Master Gu that Gu Yusheng would call him back after the meeting ended. Only then would Old Master Gu let him go.

Xiaowang put his phone down and could not help but ask, “Master Gu, when do you plan on calling your grandfather back?”

“Not in a hurry,” Gu Yusheng curtly responded. After pausing a second, he added, “Let her suffer. At the same time, let people on the internet have their say about her for a while.”

He had spent so much effort to set her up, he didn’t mind prolonging the fallout. In addition, this might be enough torture for Liang Doukou that she will unlikely pull any stunts in the future, so nothing would be gained by letting her off the hook so easily.

He had never known what the real Liang Doukou was like even though their families were close friends and he’d known her since they were children. Mainly, he thought she was spoiled.

He had never treated her badly, even when she did not want to tell him who little troublemaker was.

Gu Yusheng’s grandfather had been saved by Old Master Liang, and Liang Doukou herself had saved Old Master Gu’s life also. Therefore, Gu Yusheng had never had even a fleeting thought of hurting her in any way.

Gu Yusheng had not known what Liang Doukou had done behind his back until the day Mr. Xia had talked so much.

Qin Zhi’ai was the girl he loved. He did not worry about his own reputation, but he wanted her to be well and happy. He would not tolerate anyone bullying her.
