My Mr. Gu is Courting Death Again

Zuo Si’s eyes darkened as she watched Xu Weilai stood up and walked out the study leisurely.

It was good to have a smart partner sometimes. But it was annoying as well when they were too smart to the point they were unreadable.

Xu Weilai’s suggestion was equivalent to putting Gu Yu on the stage and exposed himself, which was a disadvantage to him at this point in time.

Did Xu Weilai did that because she no longer care about him and his safety, because he was no longer hers?

If that was the case…

A smile appeared on Zuo Si’s face. Xu Weilai’s suggestion was not totally out of question.

Xu Weilai went back to Gu Yu’s room using the same path she took earlier. She reached the door to Gu Yu’s room, but did not go in immediately. She took out a piece of paper from her bag instead. With the wall as her table, her nimble hand skillfully folded the paper into a triangular shape and inserted another small, tiny object into it.

After she finished up, she held it in her palm and raised her other hand to knock on the door.

The nurse came to open the door. She was caught off-guard seeing Xu Weilai as Xu Weilai was an unexpected guest. She automatically reminded her, “Miss Xu, Mr. Gu has not wakened…”

“I know.” Xu Weilai interrupted her, not letting her finish her expected sentence. “I don’t intend to disturb his rest. I’m leaving and won’t be able to see him for the time being. I just want to give this to him.”

Xu Weilai then handed the small triangle paper in her hand to the nurse. “This is a safety amulet. I seek it specifically for Gu Yu. Can you help to put this under his pillow. It will help him recover sooner.”

The nurse certainly did not expect her to be so superstitious. Thus, she was speechless over Xu Weilai’s action.

Xu Weilai ignored her disbelief expression and blinked her eyes at the nurse. “It was just an insignificant gesture from my heart. I just hope that he would recover soonest possible. It’s acceptable, isn’t it?”

The nurse stood thinking for a moment before she nodded and took it from Xu Weilai, since it was indeed an inconsiderable matter. “Okay, I’ll place it under Mr. Gu’s pillow.”

“Sorry for the trouble.”

Xu Weilai was already seated in the living room waiting for her when Zuo Si came down from the upper floor.

Zuo Si walked over. She lowered her eyes and looked at Xu Weilai with indifference. With a no nonsense tone, she said to Xu Weilai, “I’ve arranged for the press conference to be held three days later. It would be best for you to keep a low profile and not appear in public. Do you want me to arrange new accommodation for you, or you have some place you can go?”

Zuo Si’s agreement came faster than Xu Weilai had imagined.

It made sense as Zuo Si was a straightforward and efficient person, but Xu Weilai had a hunch that Zuo Si had a hidden agenda of her own.

But it didn’t matter, as she wasn’t afraid of Zuo Si’s tricks. Only when Zuo Si used her tricks that she could have a clearer view of Zuo Si’s intention. It would be much better than doing nothing.

As for her next destination, she already had the place she wanted to be.

“There’s no need to trouble you. I have places I can go. You don’t need to send me too, I can leave on my own.”

Zuo Si raised her eyebrows. “This place is very remote. It’s difficult to hail for a ride.”

Xu Weilai took out her phone and sent out a Wechat message instantly. She got her reply fairly quick too. She waved the screen at Zuo Si and smiled. “Don’t worry, someone is picking me up.”

“In that case, fine. I’ll see you at the press conference in three days.”

Xiao Chun arrived at the entrance about forty minutes later in her Big Black G and drove away with Xu Weilai in it.

The news about the press conference spread fast.

CEO Zuo and Zuo An were expected to have some action taken at their end. The new of Gu Yu being alive was not really a huge matter to them, but if he came out and told the public that his disappearance was related to Zuo Corporation, it would mean trouble for CEO Zuo and the Zuo Corporation. As for Zuo An, his dream of getting the Gu Corporation would be gone up in smoke.

However, the three days passed peacefully. There wasn’t any movement from both Zuo An and his father. Was it the calm before storm? Or they were having other plans in place.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye as the day of the press conference arrived as scheduled.
