Translator: _Min_
Wu Zhen blamed himself, “Miss, it’s my fault for forgetting to lock the window last night. Otherwise, Gu Zhi wouldn’t have had the chance to escape. I’ll go and organize—”
Gu Dai shook her head and interrupted, “No need. I watched her climb out the window last night.”
Relieved that it had been Gu Dai’s intention all along, Wu Zhen exhaled slightly.
Upon seeing Gu Zhi’s return, both Gu Ming and Liu Min were utterly stunned.
Liu Min embraced Gu Zhi tightly before finally letting her go, asking, “Zhizhi, you’re back? Mom missed you so much. Was it that bit*h Gu Dai who let you go?”
Compared to Liu Min’s emotional outburst, Gu Zhi’s demeanor remained unchanged. She spoke calmly, “I escaped on my own.”
Liu Min pushed Gu Zhi away, incredulous, “How could you come back on your own?”
Gu Ming’s expression also turned icy. “Go back, right now!”
Gu Zhi looked at her parents, who once doted on her but now seemed keen on pushing her out of the family because of Gu Dai.
Iler disdain for Gu Dai deepened when she realized this, and her attitude toward Gu Ming and Liu Min worsened. She spoke icily, “Do you have any idea how much humiliation I suffered under Gu Dai? If you couldn’t save me, fine, but now that I’ve escaped on my own, you actually want to send me back?”
After uttering these words, Gu Zhi retreated into her room and slammed the door shut.
Gu Zhi tried calling her aunt Gu Si several times before finally getting through.
Gu Si asked, “What’s the matter, ZhiZhi?”
Gu Zhi didn’t directly answer but asked, “Aunt, what were you doing just now? Why didn’t you answer my calls?”
Gu Si said, “I was just looking at something on the web, my phone wasn’t with me. What do you need?”
After a moment of silence, Gu Zhi relayed her situation.
Tears started to fall, her voice tinged with bitterness, “Aunt, Gu Dai has humiliated me like this, you have to help me get revenge.”
Gu Si didn’t respond immediately but said, “No need to act hastily; it’s not the right time to deal with Gu Dai yet.”
Gu Zhi grew anxious.
Iler aunt, who was abroad and out of touch with Gu Dai’s menace, didn’t understand the urgency. But she had to worry about the situation.
Realizing that any further delay would make her situation even worse, Gu Zhi urged, “Aunt, you must act quickl—”
Gu Si said, “Zhizhi, a friend of mine is here. 1 have to hang up now.”
Gu Zhi quickly called out, “Au…”
Before Gu Zhi could protest, the call was disconnected.
Frustrated, she hurled her phone onto the floor.
No, she couldn’t wait for Gu Si any longer; she needed to deal with Gu Dai herself.
Meanwhile, at Zhou Corporation.
Zhao Xuan bowed his head and reported, “President Song, Zhou Gang, the former president of Zhou Corporation, is causing a scene at the entrance, demanding to see you.”
Song Ling frowned, “Zhou Gang?”
Zhao Xuan answered, “He’s the one who supported Wei Ling online yesterday, slandering Miss Gu Dai.”
Song Ling replied concisely, “Don’t let him in.”
Zhao Xuan couldn’t help but think, President Song obviously cares about Miss Gu Dai, why won’t he admit it?
Zhao Xuan then added, “President Song, Zhou Gang didn’t come alone. His wife Feng Xue is also here, and the Feng family’s business has strong ties with our company. If we don’t see them—”
Song Ling set down his pen, his gaze turning icy as he looked at Zhao Xuan.
Zhao Xuan felt a shiver down his spine, but just when he thought Song Ling was about to lose his temper, the latter averted his eyes and spoke softly, “Let him in.”
Zhou Gang, his face battered and bruised, walked in, his tone icy, “I apologize, President Song. I don’t know what I’ve done to offend you, but I hope you can forgive me.”
The room’s atmosphere instantly chilled.
Song Ling regarded Zhou Gang with cold eyes.
Feng Xue, born into a wealthy family and always poised, could no longer tolerate Zhou Gang’s behavior.
She slapped him across the face, while she did her best to maintain her composure, and softly said, “Zhou Gang!”
Recalling the beating he’d taken at home, Zhou Gang’s demeanor instantly changed. He began to plead tearfully, “President Song, you’ve already acquired Zhou Corporation, please spare my smaller assets. Leave me some money..”
