520 Waiting for a Person Whose Return Date Was Unknown 10

"You're welcome," Xiaowang said. Feeling a bit shy, he raised his hand, scratched his head, and tried to comfort Qin Zhi'ai. "Secretary Qin, just forget what happened this afternoon."

Qin Zhi'ai nodded slightly with a smile.

Xiaowang was still uneasy, but then he sighed. "Fortunately, Master Gu came right in time—otherwise..."

After a pause, Xiaowang sighed again and continued, "Master Gu might have quarreled with Old Master Gu again after we left."

Qin Zhi'ai had been communicating with Xiaowang almost every day since she had become Gu Yusheng's secretary. Once they had become acquainted, they would sometimes chat, but they seldom talked about Gu Yusheng.

At that moment, Qin Zhi'ai couldn't help but look at Xiaowang again when she heard what he said.

With Qin Zhi'ai now unwittingly involved in Gu Yusheng's family affairs, Xiaowang felt compelled to share more details. "Actually, Master Gu has been unhappy over the past year." 

"I've worked for him since he left the army and took over the Gu's Company. And he's been quite unhappy over the past four or five years."

"He did have one happy time last year, when he was getting on well with Miss Liang… But it was like she wasn't the real Miss Liang..."

Although Xiaowang didn't know the entire situation, he did know certain details about Liang Doukou having a body double at that time, but because these were Gu Yusheng's private affairs, he did not share everything he knew.

Qin Zhi'ai, however, being at the center of the situation, certainly knew the meaning of Xiaowang's ambiguous words.

"At that time, Master Gu was seriously happy. His face was always bright, but it didn't stay that way for long. He eventually lost his joy. In fact, he was much unhappier than he had ever been."

Qin Zhi'ai sat silently in the front passenger seat, feeling Xiaowang's simple words warming her heart.

After I left him, Gu Yusheng had a difficult time?

"I've known Master Gu for many years, but this was the first time I had ever seen him be so reckless. He even drank until he got a stomach ulcer, and he smoked so much that he couldn't even speak. Master Gu was in the hospital for a month at this time last year..." 

Qin Zhi'ai remained quiet, but her hands clenched the straps of her bag.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

"And Old Master Gu is so close to Miss Liang as his daughter-in-law. Last year, Master Gu tried to disassociate himself from Miss Liang and even get a divorce..."

Although only his opinion, Xiaowang had always believed that Gu Yusheng and Liang Doukou had married too soon. He had never understood why Gu Yusheng would have promised any Gu Company shares to Liang Doukou should they ever divorce.

"After the Spring Festival, though, it was Miss Liang who saved Old Master Gu when he was almost hit by a car. Miss Liang was in a coma for two weeks. That was how Old Master Gu forced Master Gu to accompany her all the time. And ever since then, Master Gu and Old Master Gu fight every time they meet. This is why Master Gu had decided to leave Beijing and come to Shanghai."

So, at the beginning of the year, Gu Yusheng left, just to be away from Liang Doukou...

Qin Zhi'ai finally spoke out with her fingers trembling, "Then why did Master Gu suddenly come back?"
