Chapter 17: Treat You Well (7)
Qin Zhiai dialed the phone of the old house, and after ringing twice, she was answered, and Zhang's mother's voice came from the earpiece: "Hello, this is Gu Zhai." ”
Qin Zhiai asked Zhang's mother first, and then cut to the point: "Is grandpa here?" ”
"Old sir? At home, just after my lunch break, I went to call him. After Zhang's mother finished speaking, there was a series of footsteps on the other end of the phone, and then Qin Zhiai faintly heard the conversation between Zhang's mother and Mr. Gu: "It's a call from the young grandmother." ”
After a short while, Mr. Gu's voice sounded in the earpiece: "Xiaokou." ”
Even though Qin Zhiai has been under the identity of Liang Cardamom, it has been more than a month, but whenever people call her "Miss Liang" and "Xiaokou", she will always react slowly and half a beat, which is calling her.
This time Qin Zhiai was no exception, after Mr. Gu's "Xiaokou" shouted for a while, she came back to her senses and hurriedly replied: "Grandpa." ”
Then he went straight to the point: "Grandpa, just called me for the rest of his life, saying that there is a charity party tonight, and you asked me to go with him." ”
After a pause, Qin Zhiai continued: "Grandpa, I'm really sorry, I'm waiting for the plane to go to the United States, and there will be an announcement over there tomorrow, so I may not be able to attend tonight's charity gala." ”
Mr. Gu on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Xiaokou, will you not be allowed to come for the rest of your life?" ”
"No, grandpa, it's really a coincidence......" Qin Zhiai tried her best to let her voice speak, dyed with a touch of coquettishness: "Besides, the announcements were all set a long time ago, grandpa, you can see it on the news, even if I want to take a job to deceive you, I can't deceive you." ”
Old Mr. Gu was amused by Qin Zhiai's chuckle: "Of course, if you have a job, you have to be busy with work first, I'm afraid that Gu Yusheng's kid will make a mistake, and there will be something unpleasant between you." ”
Hanging up the phone, Qin Zhiai went upstairs to pack her luggage.
She really didn't lie to Mr. Gu, there was really an announcement in the United States the day after tomorrow, but the ticket was booked tomorrow.
After packing her luggage, Qin Zhiai called Liang Cardamom's agent and asked her to help change the ticket to today, and then dragged her suitcase downstairs.
Before going out, Qin Zhiai didn't forget to tell the housekeeper, called Gu Yusheng, and told him that she had work to do temporarily, and she didn't need him to pick her up at night, and at the same time, she didn't forget to remind the housekeeper that she remembered to tell Gu Yusheng that she had already said hello to her grandfather.
-
When the housekeeper called, Gu Yusheng was sitting in a spacious and bright office reviewing documents.
He didn't even glance at the screen of his phone, he signed the document smoothly with one hand, and swiped the screen to answer the call with the other, holding it to his ear.
"Mr. Gu, it's my sister who asked me to call you......"
When he heard the word "little sister", Gu Yusheng frowned slightly, an obvious disgust flashed in his eyes, and he "hummed" with his nose without anger.
The housekeeper on the other end of the phone trembled with fright, and according to Qin Zhiai's instructions before going out, he relayed in a trembling voice: "...... Xiao-sister said that she has a temporary job to be busy and needs to fly to the United States, and she can't go to tonight's charity gala, so she doesn't need you to pick her up. ”
Gu Yusheng flipped through the documents and stopped.
