Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

President Gu, since the old man is sick and wants you to visit him, you have to visit him no matter what, someone in the crowd said first.

As soon as these words were spoken, the others also spoke up to persuade her.

Thats right, President Gu. No matter how important the other matters are, the old mans health is still more important.

President Gu, just go and take a look. It wont be too troublesome!

Hearing the persuasive voices of the surrounding guests, Ji Gao was overjoyed and looked like victory was in his grasp.

He did not believe that Gu Xiao would reject his request in front of so many guests.

As long as Gu Xiao rejected this request today, he would immediately send someone to spread the news of Gu Xiaos cold-bloodedness throughout the entire circle tomorrow.

He did not believe that anyone would dare to work with Gu Xiao after Gu Xiaos cold-blooded and heartless reputation spread!

Although profit was important in business, favors were also indispensable.

He was just waiting for Gu Xiao to leave with him obediently.

If Old Master Ji is sick and wants me to visit him, then 1 naturally have to go. The corners of Gu Xiaos mouth curled up slightly, and her mocking gaze landed on Ji Gao. But the premise is that Old Master Ji is really sick!

Ji Gaos expression darkened. He looked at Gu Xiao with a dark gaze and said word byword, What do you mean by that?

Gu Xiao shrugged nonchalantly. I meant it literally. If Old Master Ji is really sick, 1 will definitely visit him. The prerequisite is that you can give me a certificate of Old Master Jis illness.

As soon as Gu Xiao finished speaking, the surrounding guests looked at Gu Xiao in confusion. Then, their gazes landed on Ji Gao.

Proof of illness? What proof did she need? Couldnt she just go to the hospital to take a look? Why did she need to prove such a thing?

They suddenly felt that they did not understand what Gu Xiao was doing.

On the other hand, some of the more sensitive and quick-witted guests seemed to understand something.

After all, the circle had more or less heard that Old Master Ji didnt really like girls. Now that he was sick, he wanted to have a girl, who had been chased out of the family, visit him. It was really confusing.

However, even if they had guessed that there was something fishy about this matter, they did not say much. They just quietly waited for the subsequent developments.

Ji Gao looked at Gu Xiao angrily. Xiaoxiao! What nonsense are you talking about! Could it be that I would lie to you about the old mans illness?

There was a hint of a smile on Gu Xiaos lips. She did not retract it because of Ji Gaos anger.

Of course its possible. To be honest, 1 really cant believe you! Who knows what Ill face when 1 go to the hospital?

Upon hearing Gu Xiaos words, Ji Gaos heart tightened and a trace of panic flashed across his eyes.

What did Gu Xiao mean? Could it be that the other party already knew what he wanted to do? But that shouldnt be the case. He had kept this matter a secret very well. Even Xiao Li didnt know that he planned to bring Gu Xiao to the hospital today.

Then Gu Xiao was

Ji Gao looked at Gu Xiao inquisitively, but he didnt find anything wrong with Gu Xiaos face. He then glanced at Chu An, who had been standing beside Gu Xiao. Seeing that Chu An was also expressionless, it didnt seem like she had discovered his plan.

If Gu Xiao and Chu An knew of his plan, they would definitely jump up to refute and chase him away. They definitely wouldnt be so calm.

But that made sense. In the end, Gu Xiao and Chu An were just children who had just reached adulthood. How could they know so much?

Ji Gao suppressed the uneasiness in his heart. What do you mean by that? Were just going to the hospital to visit the old man. Its not a dragons pool or a tigers den. Theres no need to worry so much.

He comforted Gu Xiao. When he saw that the other partys expression remained unchanged and did not look like she was taking action, he became a little anxious.

Alright, Xiaoxiao, hurry up and follow Daddy to the hospital to see the old man.

As Ji Gao spoke, he gave a look to the few people he had brought with him. They tacitly walked in Gu Xiaos direction.

When Mr Chu, Mrs Chu, and the others, who had been hiding in secret, saw this, their expressions changed slightly, and they immediately planned to walk out of the crowd.

However, Chu An noticed it and signaled with his eyes to stop them..
