Chapter 177: A Lost Puppy

Translator: _Min_

After Su Ting left, Gu Dai picked up a piece of cake from the table and began to eat it in small bites. Suddenly, a piercing voice reached her ears.

It was Song Yu, and she knew it instantly.

“How are you here, Gu Dai?” Song Yu’s voice was shrill.

Annoyance filled Gu Dai’s heart, and it deepened when she saw Song Ling standing next to Song Yu.

Without even glancing at them, she focused on her cake and replied coldly, “I’m here because I have an invitation. And as far as I remember, neither this banquet nor the Capital Hotel belongs to the Song family, so you don’t have any right to question my presence here, do you?”

Stung by Gu Dai’s retort, Song Yu pressed her lips together before forcing out a reply. “You’re here because you knew my brother would be attending, aren’t you?”

Gu Dai’s expression soured upon hearing this.

Reading Gu Dai’s expression as confirmation, Song Yu gloated, “All, so I guessed right!”

“I’m not upset because you guessed right,” Gu Dai shot back, her face growing even darker. “I’m upset because I feel disgusted hearing you say that. After all, Song Ling has no redeeming qualities that would make me want to follow him here.”

Infuriated by Gu Dai’s harsh words about her brother, Song Yu pointed a shaking finger at her. “Gu Dai, why don’t you look at yourself from before. How dare you talk about my brother like that? You’re just following him around like a lost puppy, and you’re afraid to admit! You—”

“Song Yu, shut up!” Song Ling interrupted, his face covered in gloom.

Song Yu’s laughter got stuck in her throat as she coughed awkwardly. When she regained her composure, she looked at Song Ling in disbelief. “Why are you yelling at me? I’m just speaking the truth. She’s been following you around like a lost puppy.”

Exasperated, Gu Dai wondered how someone could be so clueless.

But to her surprise, Song Ling seemed even more upset than she was.

He walked up to Song Yu and slapped her, his voice icy. “Didn’t you hear me tell you to shut up?”

Song Yu stood there, stunned, her hand covering the red mark on her face, as she looked at Song Ling with hollow eyes.

Song Ling knew exactly why he was so angry.

It wasn’t because Gu Dai had come knowing he would be at the banquet; rather, he had left a dinner party and rushed to the Capital Hotel’s hall after seeing a social media post featuring Su Ting holding Gu Dai in his arms.

The commotion between Song Ling and Song Yu had attracted quite a bit of attention; many eyes were now turned their way.

Zhou Ci, noticing the odd atmosphere as he entered the hotel, followed the crowd’s gaze to Gu Dai and Song Ling. He quickly approached, asking, “What’s going on here?”

While asking, Zhou Ci didn’t really expect an answer from the crowd. His eyes remained fixed on Gu Dai, intending to walk over to her and ask if she was alright.

However, he was stopped in his tracks when Song Yu grabbed his wrist.

Her face stained with tears, she cried out, “Brother Zhou Ci, my brother slapped me! Look at the mark on my face!”

Being the sister of his friend, Zhou Ci had always treated Song Yu like a younger sister.

He instinctively spoke in her defense, “Even if she did something wrong, you shouldn’t have laid a hand on her. She’s a girl; you should be giving her gentle guidance.”

Having said that, Zhou Ci remembered that Song Ling was generally quite kind to his sister, Song Yu. It seemed unlikely that he would slap her, especially across the face.

Realizing this, Zhou Ci looked down at Song Yu and asked, “What did you do to make your brother so angry?”

Song Yu was in a tearful mess. Without a second thought, she recounted the entire incident to Zhou Ci.

After she finished, she shook Zhou Ci’s hand pleadingly. “Brother Zhou Ci, you have to help me get justice. 1 was just telling the truth; 1 didn’t say anything wrong.”

Zhou Ci’s eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper as Song Yu spoke, so much so that they could have knotted by the time she finished..
