Chapter 17  : I Will Treat You Well (7)

Qin Zhi’ai called up the mansion, and it was shortly picked up by Nanny Zhang. “Good afternoon, this is the Gu Mansion.”

Qin Zhi’ai greeted Nanny Zhang first before she addressed her agenda, “Is Grandpa home?”

“Old Master? Yes, he was resting. I’ll get him.” As soon as Nanny Zhang finished her sentence, Qin Zhi’ai could hear a series of footsteps fading away into the background. The conversation came from afar, and she could vaguely hear Nanny Zhang telling Grandpa, “It’s a call from Young Mistress.”

After a short while, Old Master Gu picked up the phone,”Xiaokou.”She called her manager to request moving her flight forward to today after she was done packing.

She then dragged her luggage down the stairs.

Before leaving the house, she had the housekeeper give Gu Yusheng a call, notifying him that she wouldn’t be unable to attend the dinner, since she had a last-minute shooting to be done. As such, he wouldn’t have to fetch her at all. Also, she reminded the housekeeper to tell him that she had already informed Grandpa about it.

When the housekeeper called, Gu Yusheng was sitting in his bright and spacious office, reading and approving documents.

He didn’t even look at his phone screen as he swept the answer button, lifted it to his ear, and answered while he was signing a document.

“Mr. Gu, Miss wanted me to give you a call…”

On hearing the word ‘Miss,’ he frowned and contempt flashed in his eyes. He snorted and was prepared to turn a deaf ear to what the housekeeper was going to say.

The housekeeper on the other end was intimidated by his snort and shivered while he talked, “Miss said she will be flying off to the States tonight as she had some last-minute work to do. She will not be attending tonight’s charity dinner, and you don’t have to pick her up.”

Gu Yusheng suddenly stopped in the middle of flipping his document.
