Zuo An turned towards Xu Weilai. A faint smile appeared on his face. He looked at her with the usual gaze, gentle as ever, as if nothing unpleasant ever happened between them. “Get in. I’ll send you.”
Xu Weilai raised her eyebrows slightly, but she didn’t refuse. She opened the car door and bent down to get in.
The car glided on to the road into the traffic.
Qiao Chu took a glance at Xu Weilai from the rear mirror and inquired respectfully, “Miss Xu, where are you heading?”
Xu Weilai replied, “The hospital.”
Qiao Chu glanced at Zuo An, seeking permission. Zuo An instructed, “To the hospital then.”
Qiao Chu nodded towards his boss and checked the navigation for the smoother route. He then concentrated on the steering wheel.

Silence filled the car for a moment before Zuo An spoke. “I thought Gu Yu exposed himself to prove that he was not dead the public because of you. I thought you are getting back together. Now it looks like he was doing it to announce his marriage.”
His gaze fell on Xu Weilai’s face, pondering on the next words he should say. Still, he chose the sharpest against Xu Weilai. “Weilai, you toiled for the benefits of others by keeping Gu Yu as the CEO of Gu Corporation.”
Xu Weilai guffawed out of sudden.
Zuo A frowned at her sudden laughter. “What are you laughing at?”
Xu Weilai finally turned to look at Zuo An. Her eyes met his. “Zuo An, just because you’re a person who wanted something in return for everything you do, others would want things in return after they did something for others?”
“Can’t I do it just because I wanted to?”
She sighed as she said that. “Forget it, There is little common ground for understanding between people of differing principles. You probably won’t understand what I’m saying either.”
“My heart ached for you.” Zuo An’s voice filled with hoarseness. “I also feel that it was undeserving for you to have done so much and get back nothing back.”
She kept Gu Yu as the CEO of Gu Corporation, but Gu Yu announced his marriage with Zuo Si. And still she visited Mr. Gu Sr. at the hospital. In his mind, Gu Yu was undeserving of her to do so much for him.
“Zuo An.”
Xu Weilai sneered, “It’s ridiculous to hear from you your heart ached for me. If you really do, you wouldn’t have tried to rope me in to stand on your side against Gu Yu and Zuo Si at this moment.”
“Perhaps you think that Gu Yu and Zuo Si’s marriage is another opportunity for you to rope me in. Let’s be clear about this, for the fact that you hurt Grandpa Gu, has already made it impossible.”
Zuo An wasn’t even embarrassed when his real motive was exposed. After all, if Gu Yu and Zuo Si were to get married, Gu Yu’s share would still fall into Zuo Si’s hand. He would be at a disadvantage if he lost the half of his share that was now Xu Weilai’s.
He did not regret giving half of Xu Weilai’s shares back then. He lost the bet he made, and now he was here to redeem his chips.
Xu Weilai thanked him and got out of the car to leave when the car arrived at the hospital.
Zuo An stared at Xu Weilai’s leaving figure and rubbed his tired forehead at his eyebrows.
–
Mrs. Lin was alone when Xu Weilai reached the wards. She nodded at her and left the room.
Xu Weilai sat by the bed and whispered, “Grandpa, it has been so long. I miss you. Too many things have happened during this period…”
She told him everything that happened and whatever that came to her mind. She ended with, “The major reason I came today is to tell you that Gu Yu will marry Zuo Si, he…”
She stopped talking immediately when she glimpsed a slight movement from Grandpa Gu’s finger.
