Chapter 187: Poor Doggy
Translator: _Min_
Wei Ling couldn’t comprehend why Gu Dai chose to hide her capabilities, but she nodded continuously in response, saying, “Okay.”
When Gu Dai expressed her decision not to blacklist Wei Ling, she didn’t lower her voice, so Su Ting, Zhou Ci, and Song Ling all overheard.
Given Gu Dai’s stance, they had no choice but to revoke their earlier decision.
Although Gu Dai had pardoned Wei Ling, she hadn’t forgotten the sycophantic words these people spouted earlier to please Wei Ling.
The surrounding crowd trembled slightly, sensing impending doom. Recalling how Wei Ling was forgiven after her apology, they hastened to speak up.
“Miss Gu, we were wrong. We shouldn’t have speculated without knowing the full story.”
“Miss Gu, we apologize to you. Please spare us this once.”
“Miss Gu Dai, you can ask us to do anything, as long as you can forgive us!”
Gu Dai took note of the hidden desperation in their eyes.
She responded coldly, “You won’t be considered for any future Gu Group events.”
Hearing Gu Dai’s words, the people felt nothing but regret. They couldn’t believe their earlier folly, offending the chairwoman of the Gu Group just to gain favor with Wei Ling!
Zhou Ci, who had arrived late and was unaware of the earlier events, promptly added, “You’ll also be excluded from any Zhou family events.”
Song Ling cast a quick glance at Zhou Ci, wondering why he was everywhere.
Catching Song Ling’s gaze, Zhou Ci grinned, “I’m pursuing Gu Dai, after all. 1 need to be proactive!”
Zhou Ci stared at Song Ling, challenging him, “Weren’t you thinking of implementing the same measure?”
Song Ling flatly rejected, “No!”
With that, Song Ling turned and swiftly departed.
Watching Song Ling’s hasty exit, Zhou Ci chuckled. It was clear to him that Song Ling had wanted to make the same declaration but had denied it.
Luckily, Zhou Ci was sharp-witted, posing the question first. Otherwise, if Song Ling had mirrored his words and Gu Dai had been swayed by them, what then?
Zhou Ci, with thoughts of Gu Dai on his mind, quickly approached her, smiling cheerfully, “How did I do?”
Gu Dai looked at the approaching Zhou Ci with a hint of helplessness in her eyes, but he had indeed assisted her. Thus, she replied, “Thank you.”
Zhou Ci hastily responded, “You’re welcome, it’s what I should do!”
Su Ting, narrowing his eyes slightly, swiftly walked to Gu Dai’s side, nudging Zhou Ci away, and sweetly offered, “Sis, the auction is about to begin. Let me take you inside.”
Gu Dai nodded, “Alright.”
Even though Zhou Ci had been pushed aside, he didn’t show any annoyance and followed them with his ever-present smile.
Song Yu, after sharing her plan with Gu Zhi, had always been behind her, both finding a hidden spot to sit.
Initially, Song Yu felt triumphant as everything was going according to plan. But the emergence of Gu Dai turned everything upside down.
She was taken aback by the sheer number of people supporting Gu Dai.
Especially Zhou Ci, who not only helped Gu Dai but was also sticking close to her like a devoted dog. But wasn’t he supposed to have feelings for her, Song Yu?
Over the years, every time Zhou Ci met her, he was always gentle, leading Song Yu to believe he held affection for her.
No, it wasn’t just a belief. Zhou Ci definitely had feelings for her. contemporary romance
Yet, Gu Dai had ruined everything. She not only ensnared her brother, Song Ling, but now even Zhou Ci.
Hatred swirled in Song Yu’s eyes; she wouldn’t let Gu Dai off easily!
Meanwhile, Su Ting led Gu Dai into the auction hall and after choosing a prime seat, he lamented, “Sis, I have to take the stage shortly, so I won’t be able to accompany you for a bit. 1 initially wanted to be the first to appear, but the organizers insisted I go fifth…”
Looking at Su Ting’s pitiable puppy-dog expression, Gu Dai reached out, ruffling his hair with affection, “It’s alright. You go ahead.”
Su Ting nodded and as he was about to leave, he added, “Sis, buy whatever you like, and I’ll cover the costs later..”
