"Were you the only one at home last night?"
Faced with Gu Yusheng's sudden question, the housekeeper's fingers trembled slightly, but she pretended to be calm and replied, "Yes."
Did I remember wrongly? Gu Yusheng frowned.
"Mr. Gu?" The housekeeper couldn't help but ask when Gu Yusheng didn't respond.
Gu Yusheng snapped back to reality.
Maybe he had drunk too much and thought it was a dream. Didn't he also think he had vomited upstairs, but when he turned around to look, he didn't see any traces of vomiting?
Thinking of this, Gu Yusheng quickly reached out his hand to take the teacup. He rinsed his mouth and stood up. He straightened his clothes and was about to leave. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something. His face suddenly became cold and his tone became cold. He was not as casual and elegant as before. "Oh, by the way, she should be coming back from the set. Remember to tell her to wait for me at the old place next Wednesday. It's grandpa's birthday."
After saying this, Gu Yusheng's eyes flashed with annoyance. Without hesitation, he picked up his phone from the dining table and walked away.
In Jing City, the Gu family was a prestigious family with hundreds of years of history. They had a strong ancestral foundation and a wide network of contacts.
Old Master Gu's birthday hadn't been planned to be a big deal. He'd only wanted to invite his family and friends for a reunion dinner.
However, on Wednesday, there were still many people who wanted to build a relationship with the Gu family. They came uninvited with expensive gifts to celebrate Old Master Gu's birthday.
Birthdays were supposed to be a joyous occasion, and since they had all come, they couldn't be stopped outside. Therefore, before five o 'clock in the afternoon, the living room of the Gu Mansion was already half full.
Gu Yusheng had only asked the housekeeper to tell Qin Zhi 'ai that they would meet on Old Master Gu's birthday at the same place, but he didn't tell her the exact time.
Just like the last time her grandfather had returned from Hainan and invited them to the Gu Mansion for dinner, Qin Zhi 'ai went to the alley early to wait for Gu Yusheng.
Gu Yusheng seemed to be tied up by something. Qin Zhi 'ai waited for more than two hours, but Gu Yusheng still hadn't shown up.
The summer sun was a little hot. Although Qin Zhi 'ai had been hiding in the shade, she still sweated a lot. After a long time, she inevitably became thirsty. Gu Yusheng had blocked Qin Zhi' ai's phone, so she couldn't call him. She didn't know when he would come, so she hesitated for a while and finally walked to the supermarket across the street to buy a bottle of ice water.
When she was about to finish the bottle of water, Gu Yusheng's car finally arrived.
Qin Zhi 'ai threw the empty bottle into the trash can and got into the car with the birthday present she had prepared for Old Master Gu.
They hadn't seen each other for more than two months, and Gu Yusheng was still as cold and distant as ever when he saw her.
Qin Zhi 'ai knew that Gu Yusheng didn't want to talk to her, so when she got in the car, she didn't greet him and embarrass herself.
Gu Yusheng had arrived late. When the car arrived at the Gu Mansion, there was no parking space in the yard, so the car could only be parked on the side of the road outside the gate.
