Gu Dai pursed her lips and said softly, “He’s not my boyfriend.”
The nurse, taken aback, quickly apologized, “Sorry, Miss Gu. Actually, I’m a fan of Su Ting. He used to be indifferent to everything, almost inhuman. But today, he seems so alive, and the way he looks at you, it’s so bright and sparkling. I thought…”
Images of Su Ting’s smiling face flashed through Gu Dai’s mind, her heart fluttering slightly as a smile involuntarily graced her lips. She gently shook her head at the nurse, “It’s okay.”
Upon Su Ting’s return, the nurse, feeling a bit guilty, quickly left the room.
Su Ting, sensing the nurse’s odd look, asked in confusion, “What happened just now? Why was she looking at me so strangely?”
Gu Dai shook her head and swiftly changed the subject, “I still have work to deal with. Could you ask Zheng Ming to bring it to me?”
Su Ting refused, “No, you’re injured now and should rest. You can’t be working.”
Gu Dai, “But…”
Gu Dai started to protest, but Su Ting suggested, “How about I help you with some simple tasks that won’t affect the company much?”
He pulled out his phone, adding, “I’ve been learning about business lately and even made some money. Take a look, Sis.”
Gu Dai, seeing a series of numbers, exclaimed, “You earned all this recently?”
Su Ting nodded, “I wanted to help you, so I took some online business courses. Luckily, I have a bit of a knack for it and managed to earn some money.”
Gu Dai was impressed, “You’re not just a bit talented; you’re exceptionally gifted!”
Su Ting blushed at the praise, asking shyly, “Sis, am I qualified to help you with the work?”
Gu Dai nodded, “Let Zheng Ming bring the contracts over for you.”
Su Ting, after receiving the documents, realized some were about the company’s internal affairs. He promptly set them aside.
Gu Dai, seeing his action, chuckled, “It’s okay, go ahead. I trust you won’t betray me. And with such talent, it shouldn’t be wasted. Use these as practice for now.”
Su Ting earnestly promised, “Sis, I won’t let you down!”
Gu Dai nodded then contemplated which branch of the Gu family business to give to Su Ting.
In the following days, as Gu Dai lay resting in bed, she would open her eyes to the sight of Su Ting diligently working on documents. At such moments, she felt an immense sense of tranquility.
After being discharged, Gu Dai got into the car to return home.
Su Ting, helping her out of the car, cautioned, “Sis, you might have recovered, but still be careful.”
Meng Chuan agreed, “That’s right, that’s right.”
Meng Zhi and Shi Nuan also looked at Gu Dai with concern.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Gu Dai assured them, “I’ll be careful!”
She then went to Shi Nuan, teasingly whispered in her ear, “Nuannuan, when you and my Third Brother looked at me just now, you were so in sync, like a couple that’s been together for years.”
Shi Nuan, blushing from her face to her neck, exclaimed softly, “Daidai!”
Gu Dai quickly added, “Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore. I’m going to see grandma now.”
In recent days, Xu Huan had grown accustomed to her fractured leg, even managing to maneuver her wheelchair by herself.
Upon seeing Gu Dai, she didn’t wait for the servants to react before she wheeled herself over to Gu Dai’s side, asking with concern, “Daidai, how are your injuries?”
Gu Dai smiled, “I’m all better now!”
Xu Huan turned to look behind Gu Dai, then after a few seconds, said with a smile, “Su Ting doesn’t have worry in his eyes, so you’re not lying to me.”
Gu Dai turned to look at Su Ting, noticing his flushed face, then turned back and said, “Grandma, don’t tease him.”
Xu Huan agreed cheerfully, “Okay, okay.”
She then added, “Daidai, your master called me yesterday, saying she misses you.”
Gu Dai, puzzled, asked, “Why didn’t my master call me?”
Xu Huan shook her head with a sigh, “You haven’t contacted her in years; she’s upset with you.”
Gu Dai recalled her senior brother mentioning that her master sent her gifts every year. Since regaining her memory, she had been too busy with work and hadn’t had the chance to contact her master.
Feeling guilty, Gu Dai immediately said, “Then I’ll go see her now. Grandma, why don’t you come with me? Just in case she locks me out of the mountain and doesn’t let me go up..”
