Chapter 397: He lives with me
Translator: _Min_ |
Gu Dai’s eyes narrowed slightly as she asked, ice in her voice, “Are you threatening me?”
Song Ling remained silent, staring at Gu Dai.
Gu Dai might disregard Song Ling, but she couldn’t overlook the Grandpa Song, who had always cared for her during the past three years.
His good health now could be compromised by worry if he learned of Song Yu’s ordeal.
After a moment of contemplation, Gu Dai made up her mind.
She turned to Su Ting and spoke softly, “Go see how Fu Nan’s training is going.
I’ll join you shortly after I decrypt the surveillance.”
Su Ting nodded in agreement, “Okay.”
Song Ling, who should have been pleased with Gu Dai’s consent, felt increasingly irritable, especially seeing her gentle interaction with Su Ting.
If he knew this would happen earlier, he might have been better off seeking more hackers.
Impatient, Song Ling urged, “Hurry up, it’s getting late!”
Gu Dai glanced at him indifferently.
Zhao Xuan, sitting in the driver’s seat, occasionally glanced back. He hadn’t expected Song Ling to actually persuade Gu Dai to help.
Wrapped in her thoughts and gazing out the window, Gu Dai spoke, “I should make it clear, I can’t guarantee success in decrypting the surveillance. So, don’t get your hopes up.”
“I believe in your abilities,” Song Ling responded confidently.
Gu Dai yawned, having already set the expectations. If she failed, she couldn’t be blamed since Song Ling had chosen to trust her.
Song Ling, smelling Gu Dai’s light fragrance, recalled the incident at the hotel.
Even though Jiang Yue had claimed responsibility, his instincts denied it.
His eyes darkened as he asked, “Were you the one who took me to the hotel that night?”
Surprised, Gu Dai recalled the incident after a moment and nodded, “Yes, it was me.”contemporary romance
A flicker of joy appeared in Song Ling’s eyes. He suppressed his excitement and said, “So that night…”
Gu Dai quickly interjected, “I left after dropping you off at the hotel.”
The joy on Song Ling’s face froze, he trembled, then slumping back in his seat.
He closed his eyes for a few minutes to compose himself before speaking again, “The Legendary Doctor saved my sister recently. Where were you the night I called you?”
Gu Dai, aware that he was suspecting her of being the Legendary Doctor, lowered her gaze and answered, “I was asleep at home.”
After a pause, she added, “You already knew that when you called me that night. If you don’t believe me, ask Su Ting.”
Su Ting had returned from overseas and met her at home that evening.
He could corroborate her alibi.
Song Ling frowned, asking skeptically, “Why ask Su Ting? Do you live together?”
Gu Dai, finding no fault in his question, nodded, “Yes, he lives with me.”
Song Ling’s expression darkened, his fists trembling slightly. A single man and woman living together; it was obvious what others would think.
Biting back his anger, Song Ling sneered, “No wonder you were so impatient on the phone that night. I must have interrupted something between you two!”
Gu Dai adjusted her sleeves and gave Song Ling a disdainful look, finding his assumptions absurd.
Zhao Xuan stopped the car, his voice trembling as he announced, “President Song, we’ve arrived.”
Gu Dai looked at the towering Song Corporation building and motioned for Song Ling to lead the way.
Inside, programmers huddled around a computer, attempting to decrypt the surveillance. Days of fruitless efforts had left them on the brink of desperation. Their hairs, fallen one by one, as they slowly approach baldness.
Song Ling glanced at them disdainfully, cursing in his heart that they were all useless.
Song Ling then ordered, “Move aside.”
The crowd parted, revealing Gu Dai, who walked in behind Song Ling.
The programmers looked at her skeptically, wondering if such an elegant and beautiful woman truly possessed hacking skills.
Unperturbed by their doubtful gazes, Gu Dai pulled out a chair and sat down, her eyes focusing on the chaotic code on the screen.
Song Ling watched anxiously, asking, “Can you decrypt it?”
Gu Dai replied nonchalantly, “It’s manageable. The system’s backend is just messed up. I’ll need some tools, but it’s not overly complicated..”
