The reason why he came to see me with a cup of ginger tea must be that Nanny Zhang told grandfather and grandfather told him to come, but if he found out that I lied, he would definitely think that I wanted to stay with him alone through some kind of scheme. Normally, he would be furious by now. Why is he so calm?
Qin Zhi’ai frowned. Her head remained downcast, so she couldn’t see his expression to guess what he was thinking at that moment, but after a period of hesitation, she plucked herself up and took a quick glance at him.
Instead of the fury she had seen before when they were alone, indifference was the only emotion visible on his face.
Maybe he walked directly to me after he entered the room, so he didn’t notice my reactions or see through my little trick. Yes, that must be the case… I was just being nervous and self-absorbed. Gu Yusheng hates me, and he’d rather not see me at all, how could he stare at me?
Thinking of that, Qin Zhi’ai felt relieved, her fear and anxiety soothed a bit.
Gu Yusheng put the ginger tea down on the bedside table, leaving it there without a word.
It seemed to her that Gu Yusheng would only come for the sake of grandfather even if she really was sick, but today, why hadn’t he just left after he had done what grandfather told him to do?
Qin Zhi’ai became nervous again because of Gu Yusheng’s abnormal behavior.
He hadn’t gotten angry or just left… Was it because grandfather also told him to stay with her?
Qin Zhi’ai rocked her brain, and found that to be the most likely reason. She suppressed her fear and anxiety with a deep breath, then looked up at Gu Yusheng calmly, saying, “Today is Grandpa’s birthday. You don’t have to stay with me…”
Before she finished her words, he suddenly bent down, removed the quilt from her vigorously, and picked her up.
“Yu…” Qin Zhi’ai shouted his name subconsciously, but the last time she had called his name and almost been throttled by him occurred to her, so she changed her words immediately. “…Mr.—Mr. Gu.”
Gu Yusheng just ignored her screams and carried her downstairs emotionlessly.
He didn’t see Old Master Gu downstairs, so he just told Nanny Zhang that he would take Qin Zhi’ai to the hospital, then he strode out of the room without waiting for Nanny Zhang to respond.
When he got to the car, he just put her inside and slammed the door.
He got in the car and stepped on the accelerator without fastening his seatbelt, then turned the steering wheel and drove out of the yard quickly.
?
Seeing the neon lights they passed on the road, an inexplicable panic aroused in Qin Zhi’ai’s heart.
She didn’t know if she was being too sensitive, but she could feel that something was wrong with him. She racked her brain but could find no answer.
