Huo Sicheng left without looking back.
Seeing this, Chu Yu hurriedly picked up the documents on the table and quickly chased after President Huo.
In the CEO’s private elevator, Huo Sicheng reached out his hand to Chu Yu.
“President Huo, where are you going?” Chu Yu quickly handed the document to President Huo.” It’s noon. It’s time for lunch.
Huo Sicheng remained silent.
He signed the document and handed it to Chu Yu.
“You don’t have to follow me.
“Yes, President Huo.”
The restaurant was doing well. Gu Qingcheng had booked a private room in advance. She wore a pair of black glasses that covered her face and walked in to tell them her room number.
She held her phone and looked at the message that Yuan Feng had sent her and sneered.
Qi Shaoze had a bunch of missed calls and messages, but she did not reply to any of them.
She entered the private room. Before she could stand still, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist and she was pulled into a strong embrace.
Just as she was about to resist, she fell into a pair of phoenix eyes that were like stars. She was stunned and even forgot to struggle.
She was ecstatic and filled with sweet joy. “Hubby! Why are you here?”
“Can’t we do it here?” Huo Sicheng lowered his head and planted a kiss on Gu Qingcheng’s lips. His heart was as soft as water for her, and he spoke softly about how much he missed her. “I missed you.”
Gu Qingcheng was already excited about Huo Sicheng’s sudden appearance, and she was pleasantly surprised.
His words of missing her were like the sweetest existence in the world. It was so sweet that it made her feel weak all over.
“Hubby…” She kissed his chin coquettishly and winked at him mischievously.
“So you know how to say sweet nothings. Say more in the future. I like it.” Huo Sicheng smiled. “It’s not love words. It’s what I want to tell you from the bottom of my heart.”
Gu Qingcheng smiled brightly. “I like it. I like it very much.”
Huo Sicheng kissed Gu Qingcheng gently. “I’m relieved to see you so happy.”
Gu Qingcheng didn’t understand. “Why?”
“I’m worried you’ll be unhappy.”
“No, I’m happy.” Gu Qingcheng cupped Huo Sicheng’s handsome face gently in her hands. “If you didn’t come, I would have eaten alone. Now that you’re here, we can eat together as husband and wife. I’m in bliss.” “Eat first, don’t starve yourself,” Huo Sicheng said gently.”
“Alright.”
This was the first time Gu Qingcheng and Huo Sicheng had lunch together.
The dishes at the steamed restaurant were light. Gu Qingcheng had specially added spicy sauce when she called to order. Because Huo Sicheng had suddenly come to her side, she had hurriedly changed the dishes to non-spicy ones, just to suit his stomach.
After dinner, Gu Qingcheng snuggled up comfortably in Huo Sicheng’s arms and said softly, “Hubby, if you get off work early, go home early to accompany your son.”
Huo Sicheng knew that Gu Qingcheng was worried that Huo Xuan would be traumatized by the kidnapping, so he said lovingly, “Okay, I’m free today. I’ll go back directly later.”
“Yes.”
At this moment, outside the Gu family’s villa, the neighbors who passed by and ran were shocked to see Gu Mei lying on the ground at the entrance, her clothes disheveled as if she had been raped.
Someone stood at the side, not daring to step forward and asked softly, “Oh my god! Is this Miss Gu?”
“What Miss Gu? She’s obviously the Second Miss Gu.” Someone explained in a disdainful tone, “Look at this hair color. Only Gu Mei loves to dye her hair in such a gaudy color. It’s like she’s out for sale. She doesn’t know how to embarrass herself.”
“Shh, don’t talk nonsense.”
“There’s nothing that can’t be said. Among the elites, who doesn’t know that the second daughter of the Gu family, Gu Mei, is uncultured! The shameless mother and daughter had taken over the place of their first wife’s daughter, Gu Qingcheng. She was the daughter of a mistress, yet she treated herself as a young miss every day. She was shameless.
“Speaking of this, Gu Tianhao is really not a person. He drove away the daughter of his first wife, Mu Xia, Gu Qingcheng, and left a mistress and her daughter by his side. They are still doted on by him.
“Sigh, it’s a pity that Miss Gu, Gu Qingcheng, lost her mother when she was young and was kicked out of the family. Fortunately, this girl was self-reliant and survived well. She was also very promising and deserved the title of the number one socialite in Jiang City.”
Someone mentioned Gu Qingcheng’s mother, Mu Xia, and said regretfully, “Yeah, it’s great that Mu Xia is still alive. Mu Xia is so dignified and elegant. He’s always so gentle when he sees us. Unfortunately, she had passed away early. Otherwise, her daughter, Gu Qingcheng, wouldn’t have suffered so much.”
“That’s right. If only Mu Xia was still alive. Otherwise, the mistress and her daughter wouldn’t have the chance to enter the family.”
“Isn’t that so? Mu Xia’s daughter, Gu Qingcheng, is capable and elegant,” someone said. “On the other hand, the daughter of this junior was not presentable. Look at her tattered clothes, she looked like she had been raped.” “What do you mean by looking like she was raped?”
“Despicable.” Someone cursed Gu Mei. Everyone in the upper-class circle knew about Qin Jun, the boyfriend of Gu Qingcheng. “I think Gu Mei is as dirty as her mother. She likes to seduce men everywhere.”
Before Gu Mei could open her eyes, she heard someone insulting her. She hated people calling her the daughter of a mistress the most in her life.
“Shut up!” She opened her pair of scarlet eyes and looked at the noblewomen who were running together in running clothes a few steps away. She said angrily, “You bunch of damn old women, you’ll definitely be struck by lightning if you spout nonsense.”
The few of them did not expect Gu Mei to wake up. They were shocked and insulted by Gu Mei.
The leading lady looked at Gu Mei with disdain and snickered. “If you gossip, you’ll be struck by lightning. If you’re a mistress, you’ll kill your first wife. Not only will you be struck by lightning, but you’ll also be despised by others for thousands of years.”
These words stung Gu Mei. She cursed angrily, “You’re the one who’s harming people, you shameless bastard. Just you wait and see. I’ll definitely tell my mother about your ugly faces and won’t let you off.”
“Is that so?” The woman raised her hand to cover the corner of her eyes and mocked Gu Mei. “You’d better tell your mother. Then, your mother will come to my house with a gift and apologize to me. After all, my husband holds power and wants to make things difficult for your father.”
Gu Mei’s lungs were about to explode from anger. She knew this d*mn old woman and also knew that this woman’s husband was an official. If she really told her mother, her mother would definitely say that she was causing trouble.
She was so angry that she went crazy. Suddenly, her heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife. She could not suppress the heat that surged up her throat.
“Wow…” She spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Oh my god, she’s vomiting blood.” Someone exclaimed, “Let’s leave quickly. If she dies, we’ll be in trouble.”
The running ladies quickly left.
Gu Mei lay on the ground and looked at the bright red blood in front of her. She thought of the substance that she had been injected with. The uneasiness and fear made her tremble.
The door of the Gu family was opened by a servant who had gone out to buy things. When the servant saw Gu Mei, she quickly said, “Miss, what’s wrong with you?!”
When Chu He heard the servant say that her daughter was vomiting blood and collapsed at the door of the house, she hurriedly walked into her daughter’s boudoir. When she saw Gu Mei lying on the bed in a state that was neither human nor ghost, her eyes widened and she could not believe what she had seen.
“Xiao Mei…You…. What happened to you? Why are you lying in front of our house? Who bullied you?”
