Gu De Shou is quiet for a moment before he says, “As soon as I possibly can.”
Zhuang Nai Nai does not believe him, but she does not have any other choice but to stay quiet for now. “Can you arrange a video call for me and my mother?”
Gu De Shou thinks for a moment before he says, “Let me arrange it first.”
Let him arrange it first?
Zhuang Nai Nai narrows her eyes at him, “You should know the importance of my mother for me, right dad? You wouldn’t mistreat her, would you?”
Gu De Shou is momentarily frozen before he patiently says, “Yes. She is out of the country at the moment. She is doing well, don’t worry.” After saying that, he changes the topic, “I heard that you are now working in Di Hao Group’s Design Department. You must have seen their new designs. Their Apparel Department is very famous in the country. Qing Yan, what do you think about my request?”
What does she think about his request?
Such a wishful thinking on Gu De Shou’s part.
The entire company has been working so hard for the 100th year anniversary. Besides, for apparels, their selling point is their creativity, how can she simply hand it over to him?
Where is Gu De Shou’s brain?
She sneers at him, “What do you think?”
Gu De Shou gets up with a fake-looking smile on his face, “I know I am asking for too much, but Mr. Si likes you so much, I think he will not have a problem giving you the designs if you ask him to. If he won’t, then you can just go to the Apparel Department and look at their designs. Then, you can give our designers a few ideas.”
She purses her lips. This Gu De Shou is really shameless. He is actually asking her to steal!
“No,” Zhuang Nai Nai immediately rejects his suggestion. Her relationship with Si Zheng Ting has just turned better, why would she go around ruining it?
Gu De Shou looks calm as ever as he sighs in front of Zhuang Nai Nai, “Qing Yan, if our Gu Enterprise goes bankrupt, we won’t be able to even afford buying a plane ticket for your Zhuang mama.”
The look in her eyes changes as she stands up, “Are you threatening me?”
“No. ‘Threaten’ is such a strong word. Take the designs, Qing Yan, and our company will safely go through this year. I will arrange a video call for you, alright?”
She clenches her fist, she really wants to give him a slap.
But in the end, no matter what, she still has to lower her head, “Give me some times to think.”
After saying that, she turns around to leave the study room. When she is by the door, she suddenly stops in her steps and turns to look at Gu De Shou, “I have a question I have always wanted to ask you.”
“Ask away.”
“You said that the car accident was just the trigger of her illness. What is the real cause, then?”
She has always been very confused about her mother’s illness. Her mother had never told her anything about her past back then. She kept everything to himself.
Is the reason for her mother’s illness originates from the years before she was born?
From the moment she met Gu De Shou and Li Yu Feng, she had always wanted to ask them what really happened between them and her mother.
If what Li Yu Feng said was right and Zhuang mama really did kidnapped her, why did she choose her out of all other babies?
