Chapter 16  : I Will Treat You Well (6)

Gu Yusheng had been so ruthless that Qin Zhi’ai couldn’t get out of bed for a few consecutive days. Fortunately for her, Liang Doukou had no upcoming events, so Qin Zhi’ai didn’t have to go out. She could stay at home and have a good rest. By the time she had pulled through from that night’s horror, a week had passed.

And during that week, Gu Yusheng didn’t return home at all, just like before.

Only Gu Yusheng himself and those from the Gu Mansion knew his home phone number.

Ever since Qin Zhi’ai had started living in his house, Gu Yusheng treated the house like it had never existed and had never called.He had thought that she had looked for Grandpa in order to make him take her to the charity party…

As if to verify her guess, Gu Yusheng spoke again. “Your actions are so timely. I just returned from a business trip when Grandpa’s call came… Ha… ”

He gave a short and soft chuckle, but even across the phone, Qin Zhi’ai could still feel his sarcasm.

Then, he quickly hung up.

No wonder it had been so peaceful that week, with no calls from the Gu Mansion at all. So Gu Yusheng being on a business trip was the reason…

Now, as soon as he came back, Grandpa had grabbed the chance and tried to pull them together.

Qin Zhi’ai knew that Grandpa was just being kind, but… Grandpa’s kindness was precisely the reason why she suffered again and again!magic

That nightmare a week ago was still enough to make her shiver in fear, and if she and Gu Yusheng were really going to meet that night, who knew what he would do to torment her.

The first two times had been too unexpected and she couldn’t avoid them, but this time was different… If she had known that she would be miserable, she wouldn’t offer herself up for that kind of situation.

Qin Zhi’ai calmly pondered over the matter. As she stared out of the window into bright afternoon sunlight for a moment, the words “business trip” that Gu Yusheng had just mentioned popped into her mind, and that gave her an idea. She quickly picked up the handset and dialed a number.
