Si Zheng Ting who has not slept the entire night steps into his office on the top floor of Di Hao Building.
Ji Chen follows him closely, clutching a couple of urgent documents that have just arrived that morning.
When he sees the look on Si Zheng Ting’s face, he secretly sighs before silently putting the documents on the table.
Si Zheng Ting sits behind his desk and begins flipping through one of the documents. A couple of pages in, he begins staring at the document quietly, not changing the page for the longest time.
May is anxiously poking her head in by the door, waiting for the documents to be signed so that she can send them out.
When Ji Chen sees the anxiety on May’s face, he clears his throat, bracing himself to speak, “Sir….”
Si Zheng Ting suddenly lifts his head and without waiting for Ji Chen to stop talking, asks, “Who sued Gu Enterprise?”
Ji Chen is taken aback by that question, “Ah?”
When Si Zheng Ting frowns, Ji Chen quickly says, “Sir, I will ask the Corporate Legal Team right away.”
He walks out and quickly makes a couple of calls. Once done, he walks back into the office, “Sir, when Director Mi realized what happened, she reported it to the Legal Team, who in turn filed a report in court.” After saying all that, he looks at Si Zheng Ting hesitantly, “Sir, this matter…..”
How should they handle this matter?
Si Zheng Ting has a lot of opinions about Gu Enterprise, but no matter what, Gu Enterprise belongs her father.
Besides, if he handles this strictly, she might never get her mother back. She will be really heartbroken.
Something stuck in his throat when he remembers the way she cried inside the convenience store.
After a while, he says, “Suppress the matter for now.”
Ji Chen looks at him for a moment, before nodding in assent.

Zhuang Nai Nai jumps off Su Yan Bin’s car the moment it reaches Gu residence.
She walks into the house. It is still early, so everyone should still be at home.
When she walks in, three of the house inhabitants are eating breakfast under a strange atmosphere. All three turn to look at her.
When Li Yu Feng sees Zhuang Nai Nai, the look on her face becomes darker. She slams her chopsticks on the table.
As for Gu De Shou, his eyes light up as he quickly stands up to greet her.
“If other people don’t know us, they might think that you are greeting your ancestor instead of your daughter!” says Li Yu Feng coldly.
(TN: People usually treat their ancestors with respect and reverence.)
Gu De Shou’s face darkens as he awkwardly stands there, not walking yet not sitting.
Zhuang Nai Nai ignores the pair and goes straight for Gu Xing Shan.
Gu Xing Shan jumps up in shock when she sees her. She drops her chopsticks and runs for cover behind Li Yu Feng, “W-What do you want, Gu Qing Yan?”
“What do I want? Did you do it, Gu Xing Shan?” Zhuang Nai Nai glares at her sharply.
Gu Xing Shan tips up her chin, “What are you talking about? I can’t understand you.”
Li Yu Feng frowns, “What on earth are you doing, Gu Qing Yan? Are you insane?”
“Am I insane?” Zhuang Nai Nai laughs. She has never felt any warmth from these people. She grabs Gu Xing Shan’s wrist and says, “Gu Xing Shan, fess up! Tell your mother and your father what you did!”
