A mysterious text message late at night allowed her to capture the adultery between her husband and Little San. For the sake of her child, she chose to swallow her anger.

However, she had endured it in silence. What she had received in return was even more heartless humiliation from her husband!

She handed over a piece of divorce paper, then turned and threw herself into the arms of another man.

Deep in the man's love for her, she suddenly realized that all of this had long been carefully planned out.

CHAPTER 401 - SWITCH TO A BIGGER OFFICE

What's wrong? Has something happened?

Tang Jinyao slowly walked over to the bedside. Shen Dian Dian Dian Dian, she's dead.

Ji Xinqing was stunned. Dead?

How could she die? Wasn't she fine yesterday …

Tang Jinyao interrupted her. I just got the news that she committed suicide this morning.

Dead, he actually died just like that … Ji Xinqing lowered her eyes. Her throat was somewhat hoarse, How did she die?

She took a lot of sleeping pills, Tang Jin Yao's pupils darkened. She actually had sleeping pills on her.

Ji Xinqing pursed her dry lips as she lowered her head to discover that her palms were wet. Young Master Tang, you, when did you arrest her? Now that she's dead, what are you going to do? "

There's no need for you to worry about that. Just leave it to me, Tang Yao rubbed her head lovingly. All you need to do is rest and rest in peace.

He did not want her to see these obscure matters, nor would he let her see them … All she needed was a happy smile.

But … Ji Xinqing was about to say something, but the man shoved her into the bed.

This kind of thing is a disappointment.

He bent down and pressed his forehead against hers. By the way, did you have something to say to me?

No, it's nothing. Ji Xinqing looked away unnaturally.

Nothing much, what were you trying to tell me?

When the warm breath landed on her face, Ji Xinqing's face turned slightly red, I, I forgot.

Forgot? The man's eyes were full of warmth and smiles. Then do you want me to help you remember?

He deliberately lowered his body and rubbed his lips against Ji Xinqing's. Eh? Do you remember?

Ji Xinqing's eyes were tightly shut. She could not push it away, so she could only whisper, I really forgot.

The man chuckled lowly, his words piercing through Ji Xinqing's thoughts, Have you forgotten, or don't you want to speak?

Ji Xinqing's eyes flashed, not daring to look at him. Suddenly, she wrinkled her brows and raised her hands, feigning grievance as she said, Young Master Tang, you're hurting me.

Even though he knew that she was just putting on an act to fool him, Tang Yao was unable to do anything about it.

He simply couldn't bear to let her hurt him. Even if it was fake pain, he couldn't.

He kissed her eyes and let her go.

Where does it hurt? he asked, looking at her hands.

Ji Xinqing pointed guiltily, You just encountered it here.

Tang Jinyao held her hand and lightly kissed the spot she had pointed to. Does it still hurt?

Did he think that his kiss had the effect of a miracle medicine?

Even though she thought that, Ji Xinqing shook her head obediently, It doesn't hurt anymore.

Tang Yao rubbed his thumb across her palm. The texture of the gauze was very rough.

What do you want to eat at noon? I'll get Aunt Li to prepare some food and send it over.

Anything is fine, Sister Li said, having basically figured out her taste.

If you're tired, then rest. I'm going to the Gu family right now. Tang Jinyao gave him a faint smile.

Is there any news about Young Master Gu?

No, there are a lot of details I need to talk about with Grandpa Gu regarding that explosion, Tang Jin Yao stood up. Rest well, if you need anything, just call the nurse.

Ji Xinqing tugged at his sleeve, looking at him, wanting to say something but hesitating. Young Master Tang, actually, she said. Everything that Shen Dian had done was commanded by Gu Yuling.

She wanted to tell him, but she had no proof.

In the end, he changed his mind, Young Master Tang, if you have news of Young Master Gu, don't forget to let me know.

There was a fool waiting for this man called Gu Ling.

...

As usual, around ten in the morning, Gu Yu Ling arrived at the starry sky.

Although she was Su Yu's successor on the surface, Gu Yu Ling could only stay in the starry sky for no more than three hours a day.

It was around 10 in the morning and she was late. At 1 in the afternoon, she would find another excuse to leave.

This was her work schedule.

However, no matter how much the employees of Starry Night disliked her, no one dared to say anything in front of her face.

On the surface, they were still extremely respectful to her, even treating her like their ancestor.

But on this day, when Gu Yuling walked into the hall of starry skies, she discovered that the atmosphere was a little strange.

Everyone was looking at her with schadenfreude. They didn't even bother to put on a mask. Instead, they stared at her with naked mocking eyes and frowned.

However, she disdained to deal with these people. She raised her chin haughtily and, as usual, ignored their stares and sauntered to her office.

Hey, hurry up, bring everything out for me. Yang Qi stood in the doorway, commanding a worker.

Move those flowers away as well! Empty them all!

Gu Yu Ling heard Yang Qi's voice from afar.

She walked over with an unsightly expression and saw that most of her office space had been moved.

Gu Yu Ling still maintained her noble demeanor and didn't immediately reveal the anger in her heart.

Vice Guild Leader, what do you mean by that?

Yang Qi ignored her and continued to direct the workers.

Vice President, Gu Yuling emphasized, and her expression had already turned completely cold.

Gu Yu Ling didn't fancy a small charity like 'Starry Sky', but she was still Su Yu's replacement in name. Even if she didn't have much heart for work, she knew that these people wouldn't dare to do anything to her.

Only then did Yang Qi take a proper look at her, and exaggeratedly said, Aiyo, it's already 10, our young miss finally came to work.

She could hear the ridicule in her words, but Gu Yuling didn't seem to be in a good position to react. She could only gloomily look at the nearly emptied office and ask, Vice Chairman, what's the meaning of this?

Yang Qi smiled, What do you mean? That's what you mean. Miss Gu is so smart, it can't be that you can't even tell, right? "

Gu Yu Ling's eyes darkened quite a bit, You want me to leave?

Yang Qi quickly waved her hand, No, no, no, I didn't mean that. Miss Gu, please don't misunderstand.

Gu Yu Ling laughed mockingly. She knew that as long as her identity was in front of them, these people would have no choice but to come over like flies to please her.

Then Vice Chairman, you are … You want me to change offices? It's about time to change it to a bigger one. I wanted to mention this matter to you a long time ago, but I've been busy and haven't had the time to look for you."

Yes, yes, yes. Yang Qi gave a weird smile. Miss Gu, you're really a busy person. There's no one busier than you in the 'Starry Sky'.

Just you wait, I'll give you a bigger office.

Yang Qi clapped a few times, Ai ai! Did you hear what Miss Gu said? She wanted a bigger office! Now, throw everything out for me!

Gu Yu Ling's expression instantly changed, like a palette, alternating between green and purple.

Vice guild leader, you are...

After so many days, Yang Qi had long been unhappy with Gu Ling. Now, she could finally lift her eyebrows and feel proud.

Miss Gu, didn't you want to change to a bigger office? The land outside is so big, I'll help you make room."

Hurry up, what are you waiting for! Throw everything out of the way!

CHAPTER 402 - NEVER UNDERSTOOD HIM

Hearing Yang Qi's instructions, the workers didn't dare to delay any longer. They carried the large cardboard box down the stairs and mercilessly threw it at the entrance of the starry sky.

Pieces of paper and all kinds of small items were scattered on the floor.

The staff in the hall were whispering to each other, but not a single one of them wasn't mocking him.

Normally, Gu Yuling was like a proud peacock, she couldn't wait for everyone to come up and please her. Today, the Vice Chairman had finally vented a sigh of relief for them.

Gu Yu Ling clenched her teeth tightly, looking at Yang Qi with a gaze that wished she could tear her to shreds.

Yang Qi's smile became even wider, Miss Gu, you said so yourself. The land outside is much larger than our small place. Isn't it the bigger office you want? You big Buddha, I really can't afford to support you.

Hurry up, this office is so smelly. Once we're done moving, let's go. I still need to get a few aunties over here to clean up.

Gu Yu Ling fiercely gripped her bag. This time, her expression was no longer good, I was sent by Tang Qing. Aren't you afraid of offending her by doing this?

Yang Qi looked at her with a smile, but didn't answer her question, Miss Gu, why aren't you leaving?

With that, she frowned. Could it be that Miss Gu wants us to ask you to leave as well?

Yang Qi laughed, Why didn't you say so earlier?

Hey, you, come over here and properly invite Miss Gu out.

The worker who had been pointed out came over.

Gu Yu Ling took a few steps back in disgust, Don't come near me!

She fiercely glared at Yang Qi and said while clenching her teeth, I can leave by myself!

Yang Qi shrugged indifferently, Take your time.

Under everyone's mocking gazes, Gu Yuling walked through the hall with an ugly expression. When she reached the entrance, Yang Qi called out to her from the second floor's staircase, Ah, that's right. Miss Gu, don't forget to bring all the rubbish out the door with you!

Gu Yu Ling's body suddenly froze. She turned her head to look at Yang Qi, but Yang Qi was still smiling brilliantly at her.

The items at the door were scattered all over the floor. Gu Yu Ling stepped on a folder and ruthlessly crushed it.

Almost all the passersby were staring at Gu Yuling and pointing at her.

Gu Yuling, who had been spoiled and spoiled since she was young, had never suffered such humiliation before. She got into the car and looked at the starry sky with a sinister gaze.

Yang Qi was usually very respectful to her, so Gu Yuling didn't believe that she would have such courage.

Then there was only one possibility —

Ji, Xin, Qing!

Gu Yu Ling almost ground her teeth as she spat out this name.

Just you wait!

The car soon left, raising a cloud of dust off the ground.

Yang Qi sneered, Clean up all the rubbish in front of the door for me.

Some of the staff uneasily asked, But Vice Chairman, is it really good to do that? Miss Su Yu isn't back yet. Miss Gu was sent here by Miss Qing …"

What's there to be afraid of? Just based on Gu YuLing's character, you want to take over the branch? She's dreaming! Yang Qi paused for a moment, before soothingly saying, You guys don't have to worry. If Miss Qing scolds me, you all can push the blame onto me.

Some people in the audience were unhappy.

Vice Chairman, that won't do. Don't even think about becoming a hero. The President said that 'Starry Night' is a group. Say, isn't it?"

That's right, vice president, you are too unkind.

...

Yang Qi's eyes were a little hot, but her face was fierce as she said, You guys, each and every one of you are still standing here chatting during work hours! All of you, scram back to work! "

Someone in the audience laughed.

Do you guys think that after the president left, this vice president will be even more vicious towards us …?

It's still better to grow up. She's beautiful, and her personality is also gentle.

No wonder no one wants the vice president when he's so old. Who would dare to take the fierce matriarch …

The crowd roared with laughter.

What a great spring, you dare to scold me! Yang Qi pretended to be angry. You have to work overtime today!

Ah? Don't do it, vice president …

Yang Qi coldly snorted, turned around and left, If anyone still doesn't return to my position, then all of you have to work overtime today!

Oh my god, the vice president is such a wicked woman. Once the president leaves, she'll reveal her true face …

...

Along the way, Gu Yu Ling received a call from Shen Mu. He told her to go to the mental clinic.

It has been a long time since she contacted Shen Mu, and this is the first time he has taken the initiative to look for her.

As for … Why did he look for her? Gu Yuling's eyes flashed with hostility.

The car quickly drove to the entrance of the mental clinic. Gu Yu Ling specially drove the car to an unremarkable corner of the road and made a call to Shen Mu.

But Shen Mu made her wait.

Gu Yu Ling sat in the car and waited for a long time, but she still didn't see Shen Mu come out of the clinic.

He had already suffered a lot in the starry sky, so at this moment, Gu YuLing was becoming more and more impatient. However, she could only wait.

Shen Mu, this man, she can't fall out with him yet.

After a long time, someone suddenly lightly knocked on the window a few times. Gu YuLing turned her head and saw a faintly smiling face.

She quickly put on a charming smile, opened the door, and welcomed the man into the car. Ah Mu, you're here.

Hmm, have you been waiting for me for a long time?

No, no. Waiting for A'Mu will always be short. Gu Yu Ling's fist turned white.

Shen Mu lightly smiled, Really?

Only now did Gu Yu Ling notice that Shen Mu was wearing casual clothes. Remembering that Shen Mu hadn't just come out of a psychological clinic, she asked, Ah Mu, where did you go?

Shen Mu carelessly glanced at her, He went to the hospital.

Hospital? Gu Yu Ling immediately asked worriedly, Ah Mu, are you sick?

However, just as she finished speaking, a slender hand suddenly grabbed her neck. Gu Yu Ling widened her eyes in disbelief. Ah Mu, you —

Shen Mu continued to smile, but there was no trace of warmth in his eyes.

He gradually increased the power in his hands and looked at Gu Yuling with a gaze as if he was looking at a doll that had nothing to do with him.

Gu Yu Ling continuously patted Shen Mu's hand, feeling the strength that was slowly tightening around her neck. Her eyes widened in fear.

He actually wanted her dead?!

She opened her mouth with difficulty, Ah Mu …

Shen Mu scoffed. Just as Gu Yu Ling was about to faint from extreme lack of oxygen, he finally released her.

Gu Yu Ling leaned against the back of the chair, covering her neck as she breathed in large mouthfuls of air.

There was still a scorching pain on her neck, and as she looked at Shen Mu, she couldn't help but feel fear.

Unfortunately, she was clearly a heartless executioner one second ago. At this moment, Shen Mu once again gently hugged Gu Yu Ling in his arms.

Yu Ling, does it hurt? A soft voice.

No, it doesn't hurt … It was as if a cold wind had blown in, causing Gu Yuling's body to tremble instinctively.

Being together with this man for so many years, she had unexpectedly only realized one fact today. She had never understood him before.

Shen Mu laughed, but that laughter made Gu Yu Ling's limbs turn cold.

He covered his ears, and his tone was so light that it sounded like a whisper from a world of love.

Yu Ling, did I warn you that you are not allowed to touch Ji Xinqing?

CHAPTER 403 - A RIDICULOUS JOKE

Feeling the slowly moving fingertip on her neck, Gu Yuling's body trembled.

But he pretended to be calm and said, Ah Mu, what are you talking about? What's wrong with Sis Xinqing?

What's wrong? Shen Mu's voice was low like a snake's tongue, and a dangerous aura lingered around Gu Yurou's ears, I just received news that Ji Xinqing is in the hospital. Yurou, didn't you do this?

There's no need for that, Gu Ruoyun pouted, Ah Mu, don't wrongly accuse me. Ever since you told me that Ji Xinqing might have found out about your sister, I never targeted her again.

Her palms were already wet, but she grabbed onto Shen Mu's sleeve and shook it a few times in a spoiled manner, Ah Mu, just believe me this once. Since you said that, how could I dare to do anything to her?

Besides, Gu Yuling said with a gloomy expression in her eyes, The matter between her and Little Fourth Bro has already become a foregone conclusion. If I do these things again, it will only make Little Fourth Bro hate me even more.

Shen Mu narrowed his eyes and stared at her, not saying anything.

Gu Yu Ling's heart thumped when she was stared by his gaze, and she pulled on his sleeve, Ah Mu —

Shen Mu lightly smiled, calmly took his hand away, Yu Ling, then do you know how she was hospitalized?

Gu Yuling blankly shook her head, When did Sis Xinqing get hospitalized? Is she badly hurt?

She looked just like a girl who didn't know anything about the world, but … But she was Gu Yuling.

It seems like you really don't know, then I'll believe in you for the time being, Shen Mu smiled faintly, unhurriedly leaning back in his chair. Oh right, Yu Ling, I didn't contact her last night if you had any news about the kid.

He looked at Gu Yuling with a faint smile, I heard that recently, you've been very close with the little child.

Gu Yu Ling's blood froze in an instant, from her head to her feet.

However, a second later, an even brighter smile appeared on her face. Ah Mu, I've only been on the phone with little sister Tong recently, that's all.

Call? What did you talk about?

This … Gu Yu Ling bit her lips and glanced at Shen Mu. Then, she lowered her head in embarrassment, I, I heard that little sister Tong is very experienced in chasing men, so, so …

Shen Mu softly laughed, So that's how it is. I thought the disappearance of the little kid was related to you.

Did Sister Tong disappear? Gu Yu Ling immediately looked at him uneasily, How did she disappear?

I'm still investigating this matter. Shen Mu didn't continue speaking.

Feeling the faint gaze above her head, Gu Yuling forced out a smile, A Mu, don't worry. Big Sister Tong is so amazing, she'll definitely be fine.

It's best if it's like this, Shen Mu frowned.

Gu Yu Ling quickly changed the topic, Oh right, how's your search for your sister? Do you want me to help you?

Shen Mu immediately glanced at her, There's no need for the Rain Ling. Keep your good intentions.

The smile on Gu Yu Ling's face froze for a moment. Ah Mu, I just wanted to help you.

There's no need. Shen Mu immediately opened the car door and got out, leaving Gu Yuling with a cold and heartless view of his back.

Only after watching Shen Mu enter the mental clinic did Gu Yu Ling completely tear off the mask on her face. Her sweet smile was no longer there, and only malice and unwillingness filled her eyes.

Sister Tong's body was probably soaked to death in the seawater.

This was the result of threatening her!

Shen Mu, I hope the next one won't be you.

...

Young Master, this is the thing you wanted. Tang Han handed a document to the man behind him as the car drove up to the Gu house.

Opening the file, he found a stack of photos inside.

Tang Yao let out a cold laugh as he put the photo back. Tang Han, tell me. What was Grandpa Gu's first reaction upon seeing these photos?

This … Tang Han was at a loss as to what to say, so he waited for a while before saying, Young Master, don't worry, your subordinate has already backed up the photos. Therefore, he wasn't afraid of Old Man Gu destroying the evidence.

Tang Jinyao pursed his lips in mockery as he opened the car door and got out. Wait for me here.

Yes, young master.

A servant had been waiting outside the living room for a long time. When he saw Tang Yao, he immediately stepped forward and said, Young Master Tang, you're here. Old Man Gu has been waiting for you for a long time.

This way please …

Yes.

The servant led Tang Jinyao to the study room on the second floor and knocked the door, Old Master, Young Master Tang is here.

A series of coughing sounds could be heard from inside, and after a long while the coughing sounds finally died down, Little Four, come in.

Only now did the servant open the door to the study. Young master Tang, this way please.

The study room was dark. The curtains were ajar, blocking most of the sunlight.

The normally sturdy old man sat hunched on the sofa, trembling as he felt for a watch in his hands.

Tang Jinyao stopped a few steps away from him and said, Grandpa Gu.

Little Four, you're here!

Old Gu was still looking at the watch in his hand, while the white-haired man's grief filled his eyes. Did you find out about that bastard thing …

The title that would only make him angry in the past. Now, all that was left was … endless pain.

Grandpa Gu, what I'm going to tell you next, Tang Yao said with a faint smile. You have to be mentally prepared.

Old Gu's grey hair hung down weakly, Little Four, speak.

Only then did Tang Jinyao open the file and take out a stack of photos, Grandpa Gu, after reading this, I think you'll understand.

Old Gu received it shakily.

When he saw the contents of the photo, his muddy old eyes seemed to bulge out, and his rigid face turned even more ashen.

Old Gu breathed rapidly and gripped the photo tightly, green veins popping out from the back of his hand.

Only after a long while did Old Gu throw the photo to the ground with all his might.

This is impossible!

The photos were scattered all over the floor. Borrowing the light coming from outside the window, they vaguely illuminated a woman in the picture.

The woman arched her back as if she was doing something sneaky. In her hand was a piece of black cloth. She lifted up a corner to reveal a black muzzle, as well as a … A screen that is so familiar to Old Man Gu.

Impossible! The muscles on both sides of Old Gu's face twitched. His appearance was exceptionally horrifying.

Grandpa Gu, you're the dignified commander in chief of the army. It's not good to deceive yourself, Tang Yao pursed his lips, a faint smile on his face.

Old Gu stared at the photo on the floor, his eyes almost popping out as he shouted, Impossible! The photos had to be synthesized! It's impossible for Yu Ling to do such a thing!

The investigation into the explosion had yet to progress. Over here, more people had appeared, stealing ammunition.

As long as one wasn't a fool, one could easily guess the connection between the two.

However, Elder Gu didn't believe it. This commander in chief, who was usually impartial, already subconsciously believed that Gu Yu Ling was innocent.

Stealing the back of ammunition... It was a ridiculous joke.

CHAPTER 404 - SYNTHETIC PHOTOS

Grandpa Gu, Tang Jinyao smiled faintly at Old Man Gu. Do you think it's necessary for me to show you the composite photo?

The meridian on Old Gu's forehead became blue, and he said forcefully, Xiao Si, Yu Ling is my granddaughter, her nature is good, why would she harm her biological brother! She would never do something that goes against common sense!

Tang Jinyao nodded in agreement. Yes, she won't harm Gu Ling, he paused for a moment, then curled his lips into a cold smile. But, Grandpa Gu, did you forget how Gu Ling went missing?

Old Gu tightly gripped the broken watch in his hand, his old eyes flashed, Of course I remember, it was to save that woman called Bai Ran.

Tang Jinyao chuckled. Only Bai Ran?

Old Gu's hands trembled, the watch in his hands was almost unsteady.

And … Ji Xinqing.

Those cloudy eyes of hers were blinking intensely right now, but she continued to speak stubbornly, Little Four, Yu Ling and you are childhood friends, you should know what she's thinking of you! But after all these years, when have you ever seen her do anything unclean for you! She has always been my good granddaughter! He's the pride of our Gu family!"

Is that so? My good granddaughter? Tang Jinyao gave him a wry smile. Grandpa Gu, is Yu Ling really that good in your heart? Good to... With the evidence in front of you, you can even pretend to ignore it?

Old Gu glared fiercely at the pile of photos on the floor, Little Four, where did you get all these photos from!? This was clearly synthesized! It was clear that they were trying to stir up a relationship between the Gu Clan and the Tang Clan! You are too young to be able to see these tricks, so Grandpa Gu doesn't blame you. It's just that Little Four, Grandpa Gu doesn't want you to become a tool for people to deal with the Gu family!"

Don't get involved with that bastard anymore. Little Four, I'm afraid you can't handle it well.

As for these photos, I'll tell the servants to burn them later!

Tang Jinyao pursed his lips into a faint smile. He wasn't the least bit surprised by Old Man Gu's reaction. It was as if he had expected Old Man Gu's reaction long ago.

This conversation was completely reasonable … However, the gunshot wound on Ji Xinqing's ankle could not be faked, much less that huge explosion yesterday.

Compared to Old Gu's words, which were obviously biased in his heart against Gu Ruoyun, he believed it more — — Ji Xinqing.

Tang Jinyao's gaze swept across the pile of photos on the ground. It was the same girl. Then, she lifted her foot and stepped onto the picture. She happened to be stepping on that girl's face without showing any mercy.

Tang Jinyao's eyes turned cold. In the next moment, Old Man Gu's expression suddenly changed, as he greeted him, Old Man Gu.

Little Four, you — Old Man Gu raised his hand that was covered with age spots. After a long while, he lowered his hand and sighed.

The corners of Tang Jinyao's lips curled up slightly, but there was a hint of coldness within that smile. Her icy gaze shot towards Old Man Gu, Old Man Gu, tell me. If I were to show this kind of photo to grandpa, what would he do?

Old Gu's face turned slightly pale, and he shouted, Little Four, you are too outrageous! If your grandfather were to see these composite photos, wouldn't he fall into someone's trap?

He hated Tang Jinyao for not being able to keep up with his expectations. It was as if Tang Jinyao had done something outrageous in his eyes.

I'll tell the servants to destroy them now!

A hint of ridicule flashed across Tang Jinyao's eyes. He had truly underestimated the position that Gu Yu Ling held in his heart.

Seeing Old Man Gu call in a servant, Tang Jin Yao laughed, Old Man Gu, I'm afraid you don't know yet. These photos … More than one.

The meridian on Old Gu's forehead bulged to a terrifying extent, Little Four, hand over the photo and it will destroy the Rain Ling!

Oh? Looks like Old Man Gu, you're finally willing to speak your mind."

'To cover my eyes, it is just for... Not destroy her? "

Old Gu's body trembled almost imperceptibly. The man in front of him, who was still a child in his eyes, suddenly exuded a threatening aura.

Old Man Gu was momentarily flustered. All of his selfish motives seemed to have been thrown away by Tang Yao.

His face turned ugly, refusing to admit the fact that he was at a disadvantage in front of a kid.

Xiao Si, Grandpa Gu is doing this for your own good! You can't ruin the hundred years of friendship between the Tang and Gu Families just because of one or two photos!

The evidence was already laid out in front of them, and they still couldn't admit it … Tang Jinyao shook her head with disappointment in her eyes, Old Man Gu, you should get a good rest.

Lifting his foot, the man turned around and left.

Old Gu's face, which was covered with deep gouges, instantly became sinister, Little Four, I will call your grandfather. You are still too young, and you fell for someone else's trap easily! You still have a lot to learn!

After pausing in midair for a moment, Tang Jinyao finally came to a stop. With a soft chuckle, he said, That's true, Old Gu is right. I still have a lot of things I need to learn.

I need to learn these things from Elder Gu.

Old Gu looked at him with a malevolent expression. Deep wrinkles seemed to be etched into his eyes, while a cloudy light shone in his old eyes.

A sniff of laughter came from the quiet study, Old Man Gu, you should rest well.

Old Gu looked at the photos scattered all over the floor, then looked at the tightly shut door. The back of his brown hand suddenly pulled out a few deep creases.

...

Sister-in-law Li had long figured out Ji Xinqing's tastes. After Tang Jinyao gave her instructions, she hurriedly placed the dishes in a thermal container and rushed back to the hospital.

Tang Jinyao wasn't back yet, but the sickroom was empty. Ji Xinqing was still on the phone, seemingly in a good mood.

Qi Qi, you have become a lot bolder. I told you to invite her out, but I didn't tell you to kick her out … Yes, yes, yes, I'm your backer. If something really happens, push me out … Ai, when did I say that Young Master Tang is my backer?

Creak! The door was opened, and Sister Li peeped into the ward. Madam, she said.

Alright, Qi Qi, let's stop talking. I've been busy for a long time, let's go eat first. If something really happens, then come find me. Ji Xinqing then hung up the phone.

Sister Li, Ji Xinqing smiled, You're here.

Young madam, is the injury serious? I heard last night that young master said you were in the hospital and was worried you didn't sleep for the whole night.

Ji Xinqing shook her head, It's fine, Sister Li. You don't have to worry. It's just a small wound. It'll be fine for a few days.

That's good, Aunt Li sighed with a pained heart. She placed one end of the dish onto the table and turned around to see Ji Xinqing struggling to get off the bed.

My little mistress, Aunt Li quickly stepped forward and supported Ji Xinqing to the table.

Ji Xinqing looked at the dishes and then slowly put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hand.

What's the matter, little lady? Is the food you made not to your liking?

CHAPTER 405 - DON'T TELL HER I WAS HERE

Ji Xinqing glanced at the tightly shut door and softly said, I think it's better if I wait for Young Master Tang to come back and eat together.

Sis Li was stunned for a moment before she covered her mouth and smiled.

The little madame's relationship with the little young master seemed to have grown closer.

When Tang Jinyao arrived at the ward's door, she heard the sound of chattering coming from within the room.

The unhappiness that had accumulated in his heart abruptly dissipated quite a bit when he heard the familiar light laughter.

Young Master, you're back. Sis Li stood up and hurriedly scooped out a bowl of rice from the thermos. She pointed at it and said, Young Master, even if you didn't come back, some people still wouldn't eat.

After saying so, Sister Li left the ward with keen eyes.

You've been waiting for me? Tang Jinyao sat down next to Ji Xinqing. Seeing Ji Xinqing's slightly pale face, a trace of heartache surfaced in his eyes. Didn't I tell you last time that you didn't have to wait for me?

Ji Xinqing shook her head and smiled. She looked at him as if she was looking at her husband at home. She said gently, Let's eat.

A slight ripple appeared in Tang Jinyao's heart. Although she didn't know it yet, this was the truth.

She was his wife.

Sis Li specifically strolled around the outside of the hospital. After thinking that it was about time, she returned to the ward.

However, she saw a man in a black coat at the door of the ward.

Sister-in-law Li subconsciously thought that his actions were improper, but, after seeing the man's appearance, she couldn't doubt him anymore.

A man had a face that was more beautiful than a woman's, but it was the only thing that did not have the gentleness of a woman.

For a man of such good looks and temperament, Aunt Li stared blankly for a few seconds.

He stopped at the door of the ward and looked at the tightly shut door. The shadow on his face was so deep that it was difficult to see his expression clearly.

He seemed to want to go in. His hand that was hanging at his side lifted a few times, but in the end it fell down powerlessly.

After weighing the pros and cons for a while, Aunt Li finally walked over and hesitantly asked, Sir, are you here to visit my wife?

Little Madam … The man's lips became extremely pale. He looked at Sis Li and shook his head with a smile. When Sis Li heard his melodious voice, she asked, Is she okay?

He had indeed come to visit his wife. However, since he was concerned about her health, why not visit her himself? Unless … She glanced at the door, then lowered her voice and replied meaningfully, Sir, don't worry. The young mistress is currently in good health, and the young master is currently accompanying the young mistress to have a meal.

This was to tell him how good the relationship between Ji Xinqing and Tang Jinyao was. Or was she hinting to him that he should stop having ill intentions towards Ji Xinqing?

Yao took a look at Sister Li and smiled.

...

As soon as Sis Li returned to the ward, Ji Xinqing fixed her eyes on her, Sis Li, was there someone outside? I think I heard a voice.

Don't tell her I came, was the last thing the man had said to Mrs. Li.

Oh, it's nothing, Aunt Li smiled. It's a nurse. I talked to her for a while.

Ji Xinqing did not doubt him.

Aunt Li walked over to the table to clear up the dishes. She then thought back to that beautiful and outrageously beautiful man and shook her head with a sigh.

Ji Xinqing rested for a while. When she woke up, it was already 2 PM.

The warm sunlight shone into her eyes. She squinted and her gaze slowly focused on a figure not far away.

A tall and straight back that made people feel at ease.

Good.

The last thing he saw before going to sleep was him, and the first thing he saw after waking up was him.

Ji Xinqing looked at him. As she did so, she could not hold back her laughter.

You're awake? Hearing the laughter, Tang Jin Yao was momentarily stunned. What are you laughing at?

Ji Xinqing shook her head and looked at him with a smile. It was as if her lips were blooming with flowers.

There were some things that neither of them spoke openly about.

And yet, she knew this favor, and he knew it as well.

He still had a lot of unhandled matters on hand. However, when he saw her smile, Tang Jin Yao couldn't help but put down the pen in her hand and walk over to the bedside.

I heard that someone reached out his claw again this morning and it wasn't light at all.

Ji Xinqing was stunned for a moment before quickly reacting. He was referring to Gu Yuling's matter.

She turned her head away uncomfortably. Why did this person like to compare her to an animal? Scratching people's claws?

After pondering for a while, Ji Xinqing replied, Regarding Miss Gu's position, I thought about it last night. Her ability — erm — has completely surpassed my imagination, in such a small place like 'Starry Night', I'm afraid she won't be able to fully utilize it. In order to not delay her, I think it's better to invite her out.

She always had the ability to turn black into white … Tang Jinyao stroked her head with a doting smile before slowly opening her mouth, It's fine, continue scratching. Just remember, I'll always be standing behind you.

If you want to leave, keep walking. If something happens, I'll clean it up for you.

I'm tired, it's good to stop, I'm here, I'm here all the time.

Ji Xinqing did not dare to meet his gaze and changed the topic, Did Miss Gu bring this matter to Miss Tang Qing's side?

Tang Jinyao sneered. She doesn't have the guts to do that. The guild leader of 'Starry Sky' has invited her out. If word of this gets out, the Gu family's face will be the only thing left to lose.

If it really was like that, Tang Qing wouldn't have the guts to help her.

Also … Tang Yao reached out and flicked Ji Xinqing's forehead, causing Ji Xinqing to cover her head as she stared at him in disbelief. You hit me?

I hit you because you're lowering yourself. There's no need to call me Miss Gu anymore.

Don't worry about her identity in the future.

Ji Xinqing was stunned, What?

She's the Gu family's young miss, but she needs the Gu family's support. If she leaves the Gu family, she's nothing.

You're different. You're the young mistress of the Tang Clan. Everything in the Tang Clan is yours. After leaving the Tang Clan, you still have me.

There are some things that you should let go if you want to do them.

Ji Xinqing was stunned before she was stunned again. With a smile, she pushed the man in front of her away.

I suddenly remembered that Yang Qi will be reporting to me later. Young Master Tang, you should hurry up and get busy.

Tang Jinyao raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Ji Xinqing raised the phone in her hand, You just said that there are some things I can do freely.

A trace of amusement appeared on Tang Jinyao's face. I just told you, why are you acting so fast?

Also, after he said so much, the main point was just the last sentence?

However, Tang Jinyao didn't say anything in the end. Instead, he returned to his table and began to work on the stack of documents.

Ji Xinqing quickly sent a text message to Yang Qi. Only after receiving her reply did she raise her head and look at the man's back, secretly raising the corner of her mouth.

In this world, there were no words that could move one's heart.

You and me.

...

When the sky darkened, Gu Yuling returned to the Gu household. Her face was so sinister that not a single maid dared to step forward.

Not mentioning how she was chased out of the starry sky, Tang Qing, who she thought would stand by her side, actually stood against her.

What Tang Qing had said still made Gu YuLing feel embarrassed even when she thought about it.

Yu Ling, it's understandable that they would do this. You're too young, and your ability is lacking. Sister Qing, please find a more leisurely job for you. The job of 'Starry Sky' is not suitable for you.

CHAPTER 406 - GRANDPA I WAS WRONG

A more leisurely job?

Thinking up to here, Gu Yu Ling gritted her teeth so hard that they almost broke. Didn't Tang Qing just say that she was just a useless looking vase?!

She was the proud daughter of heaven of the Gu family. Did she need to work in a crappy place like Starry Sky?!

Yang Qi, Ji Xinqing, and Tang Qing …

One day, she would return all the disgrace that these people had brought to her!

Gu Yu Ling sneered and walked towards her own bedroom.

Little Miss. A maid trembled as she stopped Gu Yuling's steps.

Gu Yu Ling's sinister gaze swept over her, What's the matter?

The maid's body trembled even more violently, Little miss, the old man has something to talk to you about.

Grandfather is looking for me again? Gu Yu Ling impatiently frowned, Do you know why he's looking for me?

Miss, I don't know.

Gu Yu Ling cast a disgusted glance at the servant in front of her, What are you waiting for!? Hurry up and bring me there! "

Yes, yes, miss. This way, please. The maid shivered.

The maid brought Gu Yuling to the entrance of the study and knocked on the door, Old Master, the Miss is here.

The inside of the door was silent, and only after a long time did a sigh sound out. Come in, Yu Ling.

The maid hurriedly opened the door. After Gu Ling went in, she
