Translator: _Min_

Zhou Cis voice made the tension in Song Lings brows ease a bit. Leaning back in his chair, he responded, No, its not about that.

As for the news, he had already dispatched Zhao Xuan to handle the PR crisis, minimizing the repercussions. Still, rumors continued to circulate.

However, Song Ling had prepared for the worst and didnt dwell on it.

Zhou Ci chuckled, Man, youve got some nerve. But Jiang Yue is clearly bad news. She left you when you were down and out, only to return once youre successful. Yet you couldnt see through her.

Song Lings eyes drooped, and he said coldly, If theres nothing else, lets end the call.

Zhou Ci hurriedly interjected, Wait, wait, I do have something to talk about!

He had called Song Ling precisely for this matter and couldnt let him hang up just yet.

Zhou Ci continued, 1 didnt have to tell you, but since were brothers, 1 thought it best to let you know. Ive developed feelings for Gu Dai and intend to pursue her.

Ever since their encounter at the bar, Zhou Ci found Gu Dai exceptionally alluring. The more he saw her, the more mysterious and captivating she seemed.

Song Ling froze. Regaining his composure, he frowned and demanded, Say that again.

Zhou Ci sensed Song Lings irritation but reiterated, I said 1 like Gu Dai and 1 want to pursue her.

Song Ling flatly rejected the idea, No way.

Confused, Zhou Ci inquired, Why not? You and Gu Dai have broken up; you have no say in her life. What if she happens to like me?

Though he might not be as handsome as Song Ling, perhaps Gu Dai didnt care for overly good-looking men and might find his type appealing.

Song Ling couldnt believe Zhou Cis level of self-delusion. He scoffed, Take a good look in the mirror. What about you could possibly attract Gu Dai? Even if were divorced, 1 know her well enough to say she would never fall for a playboy like you.

Song Lings words made Zhou Ci feel compelled to defend himself. After realizing my feelings for Gu Dai, Ive turned over a new leaf. 1 wont be a playboy anymore; Ill be a committed man. You should know, when a flirtatious man turns committed, he becomes irresistibly charming!

Song Lings expression darkened even more. With a slight exertion of force, the pen he was holding snapped in two. He coldly asked, I dont know! But 1 do want to know when did you start having feelings for Gu Dai?

Zhou Ci pondered for a moment before answering, Initially, I was just struck by how radiant she seemed. The more I noticed her, the more 1 started to like her. Plus, she saved my grandfathers life. A life-saving favor deserves a lifelong commitment. Now, my whole family takes pride in my sincere pursuit of Gu Dai.

Confused, Song Ling inquired, When did Gu Dai save your grandfather? Why wasnt 1 aware of this?

Zhou Ci let out a yawn and spoke casually, You were busy preparing for your wedding with Jiang Yue; of course, you wouldnt know. But I have to say, youve been married to Gu Dai for three years and yet know so little about her. You didnt even tell me she had a medical background. Could it be that you didnt know either? No wonder she lost interest in you and wanted a divorce.

Song Ling wasnt bothered by Zhou Cis mockery. He quickly asked, Are you saying Gu Dai has a medical background and she saved Grandfather Zhou using those skills?

Rolling his eyes even though Song Ling couldnt see through the call, Zhou Ci said, Bro, if you really want to know, you can always have someone investigate.

With that, Zhou Ci hung up the phone.

After all, he had more important matters to attend tolike executing his plan to woo Gu Dai.

The call to Song Ling had merely been a courtesy; whether or not he agreed didnt matter to Zhou Ci.

After being hung up on, Song Ling immediately dialed Zhao Xuans number. Find out what recent interactions Gu Dai has had with the Zhou family and how she saved Grandfather Zhou.

Zhao Xuan, already juggling multiple tasks in a short amount of time, felt his head spin. Nevertheless, he could only respond, Understood, Mr. Song..
