Chapter 638: Go to Lincheng
Gu Dai cleared her throat and nodded hurriedly, “Yes, it’s fine.”
Hearing the exchange between Gu Dai and Su Ting, everyone turned their attention to them.
Feeling the heat of their gazes, Gu Dai tugged at Su Ting’s sleeve, signaling him to tone it down.
Su Ting continued to massage Gu Dai’s wrist gently, then turned to the group with a smile, “Everyone has worked hard. Let’s go to Shulin for dinner and take a break.”
The group was stunned. Shulin was known for its high prices, with the cheapest dish starting at over ten thousand. They couldn’t believe Su Ting was offering to treat them there.
Once they recovered from the shock, they cheered, showering Su Ting and Gu Dai with blessings for their happiness.
Gu Dai’s face turned even redder at the well-wishes.
Seeing her blush, Su Ting’s smile broadened. Unable to wait any longer, he said, “It’s getting late. Let’s head out now.”
Just as he finished speaking, Zheng Ming hurried over.
Seeing Zheng Ming’s anxious expression, Gu Dai asked, “What’s wrong? Is there another issue?”
Zheng Ming nodded quickly, “Chairwoman Gu, there’s a problem with our suppliers. We suddenly lost contact with all our suppliers in Lincheng, causing a complete halt in our operations. If this continues, the consequences will be dire.”
A shadow crossed Gu Dai’s eyes as she made a swift decision, “Prepare a car for me. I’ll go to Lincheng to check it out.”
Su Ting immediately said, “I’ll go with you.”
Gu Dai shook her head, “I can handle it alone.”
Su Ting frowned, “Daidai, those behind this might be trying to lure you to Lincheng. It’s too dangerous for you to go alone. I must go with you.”
Gu Dai insisted, “You need to stay here to stabilize the company.”
As Gu Zhe arrived, he overheard their conversation and interjected, “I can handle things at the company. Let Su Ting go with you to resolve the supplier issue.”
Gu Dai sighed, looking at Gu Zhe, “Dad, I trust your ability to manage the company. But what if there’s another hacker attack?”
Gu Zhe opened his mouth to argue but found no words and eventually fell silent, looking to Su Ting for help.
Receiving the silent plea, Su Ting turned to Gu Dai to persuade her.
But before he could speak, Gu Dai whispered, “If the hackers strike again, you can hold them off until I return.”
Su Ting nodded instinctively, then hesitated, “But…”
Standing on tiptoe, Gu Dai patted Su Ting’s shoulder, “Don’t worry. I’ll be fine. Trust my abilities.”
Su Ting replied, “Of course I trust your abilities, Daidai. I’m just worried the people behind this are too cunning.”
Gu Dai nodded, her mind made up, “I’ll take a few more people with me.”
Realizing her determination, Su Ting sighed, “Be careful and stay in touch.”
Gu Dai agreed, “I will.”
Su Ting pulled her into a hug. “I’ll come back as soon as I handle things in Lincheng. It’s right next to the Capital, so it won’t take long.”
Still holding her, Su Ting murmured, “Even though it’s close, I’ll still miss you.”
Gu Zhe and the others, initially reluctant to see Gu Dai leave, brightened up seeing the couple’s affection.
Before leaving, Gu Zhe and Meng Xian reminded Gu Dai to be cautious. She nodded in agreement.
Reluctantly, Su Ting said, “Daidai, the hackers haven’t made another move. Maybe they’ve given up. How about I…”
Before he could finish, someone shouted, “The company secrets are under attack again!”
Su Ting responded immediately, “I’m on it.”
Gu Dai gave him a quick hug, “Go ahead. I’ll be back soon.”
Su Ting smiled, “Okay.”
Watching her car drive away, Su Ting felt a sudden pang of unease but had no time to dwell on it as Gu Zhe guided him to the computer to counter the attack..
