Chapter 537: Learned That Su Ting Was Injured
Translator: _Min_ |
Su Ting took a deep breath, “Has the time not come yet?”
Su Ci nodded, “It hasn’t.”
Su Ting’s eyes, dark as ink, fixed intently on Su Ci, “Then when will the right time come? People have already harmed Daidai, why won’t you speak up so we can deal with it?”
Su Ci, conflicted in expression, eventually regained his composure, “We wait for the right time.”
Su Ting diverted his gaze, resolved to arrange for more people to investigate later. He refused to believe they couldn’t uncover what Su Ci was hiding.
At Song Corporation.
Song Ling’s eyes, shadowed and dark, stared at Sheng Xin before him, his voice cold, “What do you want?”
Sheng Xin, undaunted, chuckled lightly, “Can’t I seek you out without a reason?”
Song Ling glanced at Zhao Xuan beside her, instructing, “Escort Miss Sheng out.”
Sheng Xin hurriedly spoke up, “President Song, President Song, please don’t be so heartless. I saw Gu Dai at the hospital earlier.”
Images of Gu Dai caring for Su Ting flashed through Song Ling’s mind, his face turning colder, he gritted his teeth, “Zhao Xuan!”
Zhao Xuan internally sighed, puzzled why Sheng Xin would bring up Miss Gu Dai. Perhaps there could have been a chance for a conversation with President Song, but now there was no hope.
Sheng Xin merely wanted to portray Gu Dai as flirtatious, not anticipating it would enrage Song Ling.
Zhao Xuan said, “Miss Sheng, let me escort you out.”
Sheng Xin felt humiliated, her cheeks burning with embarrassment. Before leaving, she couldn’t resist shouting, “Not only was Gu Dai with Su Ting, but Su Ci went there later too. She’s stringing along several men, far from decent. Think it over carefully!”
After she exited the office, the sound of things being smashed inside could be heard. She couldn’t help but smile, whispering, “It seems my instigation had an effect.”
Sheng Xin fixed her gaze on the office door, her determination to conquer Song Ling strengthening.
Zhao Xuan didn’t hear what Sheng Xin said, but her smile made him feel uneasy.
Sheng Xin, lost in her fantasies, momentarily unable to distinguish them from reality, assumed a commanding tone with Zhao Xuan, “Go back and take good care of Song Ling.”
Zhao Xuan responded noncommittally, in reality, he dared not enter the office.
After all, Song Ling was in a fury, and he had no wish to be scolded.
Song Ling, gasping heavily in anger, replayed Sheng Xin’s words in his mind.
With a hoarse voice, he bit out, “Gu Dai… why…”
Why does she string along so many men, yet explicitly rejects me, giving me no chance?
On her way home, Gu Dai’s heart raced. Cautiously entering, she saw Meng Zhi.
She quickly asked, “Third brother, how did grandma find out about the ship? Didn’t we agree to keep it from her?”
Before she could finish, a cold huff sounded from behind.
Xu Huan said, “How long were you planning to keep it from me?”
Gu Dai hurriedly supported Xu Huan, cooing, “Grandma, don’t be angry. I was just afraid it might upset you, so I chose not to tell you for now, hoping to wait until things got better.”
Xu Huan was not swayed by Gu Dai’s words, pressing, “And when will things get better?”
Gu Dai found herself at a loss for words, “That…”
Xu Huan continued, “You haven’t thought it through, have you? Perhaps you’ll only decide after I’m gone?”
Gu Dai replied, “Grandma, I…”
Xu Huan sighed, “Never mind, you’ve just been through a dangerous ordeal, I won’t make it difficult for you. Daidai, are you hurt?”
Gu Dai shook her head, “No, Su Ci saved me. But Su Ting… to protect me…”
Xu Huan immediately understood, “Su Ting is injured?”
Gu Dai nodded, “Yes.”
Xu Huan hurriedly said, “I’ll go see him.”
Gu Dai held back Xu Huan, “Grandma, your leg hasn’t healed yet. It’s better if you rest at home. I’ll take care of him.”
Xu Huan frowned, “I’ve come to regard Su Ting as my own grandson, especially since he saved you. No matter what, I must see him. Besides, I feel much better now, don’t worry too much.”
Gu Dai responded, “Grandma, Su Ting needs to rest. It’s better if you see him once he’s back..”
