nGet back here right now!

nSince Su Ting already said this, Gu Dai had nothing more to say, she agreed, “Alright, why don’t we go to the company and sign the contract now? Is that okay?”

n“Sure,” Su Ting agreed without any hesitation.

nAfter agreeing, Su Ting thought of something. His eyes started to drift, and he spoke in a quiet voice, “Sister, your phone rang this morning. It was Chu Min who called, but you were asleep at the time, so I answered instead. He said he had already informed Special Assistant Lin, and you can go to the company later today.”

n“Alright,” Gu Dai nodded in agreement.

nSu Ting’s eyes brightened, and he asked excitedly, “Sister, you don’t blame me for answering the phone without your permission, do you?”

nGu Dai was taken aback because she hadn’t thought about that at all just now, so she shouldn’t blame him, right?

nShe thought about it then shook her head, and honestly replied, “No, I don’t.”

n“Hehe,” Su Ting couldn’t help but started to giggle after he received Gu Dai’s assurance.

nGu Dai didn’t know why he was giggling, but seeing Su Ting’s smile made her feel better. Then she thought of something, “If I don’t have to go to the company in the morning, I’ll take the chance to do something else.”

nYesterday, Gu Ming reminded her that they were still living in the villa where her parents used to live. Now that she was back, it was time to sort things out.

n“Sister, can I go with you? I just returned to the country and am still a little unaccustomed. I don’t have many friends here, so if you go out, I’ll be left alone in the villa.” As Su Ting spoke, his voice became more and more aggrieved, quieter and quieter.

nOriginally, Gu Dai wanted to refuse, as she was not going out for fun. But she couldn’t help but picture the scene he described and felt a bit sorry for him.

nAfter a moment of thought, Gu Dai agreed, “Alright, we can also stop by the company later to sign the contract.”

nSu Ting nodded repeatedly, “Okay.”

nBefore leaving, however, Gu Dai had one more thing to deal with. She took out her phone and sent a message to someone.

nAt the hospital on the other side.

n“Brother Song Ling, what happened to your leg and face…?” Jiang Yue looked at the man sitting in the wheelchair in front of her, not only with bandages on his leg but also on the left side of his face.

nSong Ling stiffened, especially thinking about the scene that happened last night, his face turned dark again.

nHe didn’t expect that Jiang Yue would see him in his current state. It was all Zhao Xuan’s fault for arranging him to come to this hospital.

nI will deduct his salary when I get back!

nIf Zhao Xuan knew Song Ling’s thoughts, he would definitely cry out that he was innocent. Song Ling suddenly called him at midnight, ordered to be immediately picked up from the bar and take him to the nearest hospital.

nAnd the hospital where Jiang Yue was now happened to be the closest one.

nAfter Song Ling realized that Jiang Yue was in front of him, he quickly controlled his emotions and said, “I had a little accident yesterday.”

nSong Ling didn’t want to talk about the details and even didn’t want to recall the incident.

nSeeing Song Ling’s appearance, Jiang Yue tactfully didn’t mention the matter again. Instead, she smiled and said, “Shall we go for lunch together then?”

nSeeing that Jiang Yue didn’t ask further, Song Ling subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, ignoring the slight reluctance in his heart, and agreed, “Alright.”

nBut just as Song Ling agreed, his phone rang.

nIt was a call from his grandfather, Song An. Song Ling quickly answered.

nBefore he could even speak, he heard an angry roar from the other end, “You actually divorced Gu Dai? Get back here right now!”

nSong Ling had just agreed to have lunch with Jiang Yue, so he refused, “Grandpa, I have something to do right now.”

nHowever, Song An didn’t listen to him and directly said, “What could you have to do just after leaving the hospital? I’ll give you ten minutes. It’s up to you.”

nSong An hung up the phone without giving Song Ling a chance to refuse.

nSong Ling had no choice but to say to Jiang Yue, “I’m sorry, I have to go home. Next time when I have time, I’ll accompany you for a meal.”

nSong An’s voice was very loud. Even without being on speaker, others could hear it, let alone Jiang Yue, who was standing close to Song Ling.

nShe heard the conversation clearly but pretended not to have heard it and said understandingly, “It’s okay, Brother Song Ling. If you have something to do, go ahead and take care of it.”
