âBaby Chuâ¦â Tears welled up in Shengâerâs eyes as she placed her hands on the glass window, her vision was blurry! She kept hitting the window, saying anxiously, âLet me get off! Let me get off!â
Her aunt looked at her and followed her gaze to the back of the car. She saw a little boy chasing after the car. She asked, âShengâer, who is that?â
âItâs Baby Chu! Itâs Baby Chu!â Shengâer kept wailing, âStop the car! Stop the car!â
Baby Chuâs figure gradually disappeared from sight. Shengâer watched helplessly as Baby Chu disappeared from the horizon. She widened her eyes as tears flowed down continuously. Baby Chu watched helplessly too, as the car pulled further and further away. He used almost all of his strength and gradually he weakened. His body swayed and fell to the ground.
âSheng⦠Shengâerâ¦â Baby Chu clenched his fists and said helplessly, âDonât goâ¦â
â¦
Ever since Shengâer left, Baby Chu sank completely into depression. He did not have much of an appetite, and was unhappy in school. After returning home, he would head upstairs after a few mouthfuls of food. He locked himself up in his room, feeling depressed and lifeless.
Chu He knew that he was in a gloomy mood because of Shengâerâs transfer, but as an elder, she did not know what she could do for him, so she let him be. It wouldnât take too long for the depression to subside. She could only hope that with time, he would accept this fact.
As for Gu Jinglian, he was completely helpless against this child. When he heard Butler Fu mention that after Shengâer transferred school, Baby Chu had fallen into depression, he did not say anything.
Butler Fu nagged, âBaby Chu is so young, I didnât expect him to have his first awakening of love. I feel that he likes Shengâer. Now that Shengâer has left, he inevitably feels lonelyâ¦â
âHeâs only a young child. What does he know about relationships?â Gu Jinglian continued, âIâve always thought he was heartless. Iâm surprised that heâd shut himself in his room every day over such a small matter.â
Butler Fu suddenly asked cautiously, âOld Master, are you leaving tomorrow morning?â
âYes.â
âIâve heard that there are many war zones in North Africa now. Warriors do not rest. You must be careful when you go this time.â
âDonât worry.â
The Gu family had a special pass. Even if they crossed the war zone, they would be unharmed.
âIâm not worried about the battle zones, butâ¦â
âTake good care of Baby Chu when Iâm not around. Donât worry about anything else.â Then, the man said, âIâm going to rest. Go and see if Baby Chu is asleep.â
âYes.â Butler Fu left the room.
As soon as Butler Fu left, Chu He entered the room and saw Gu Jinglian sitting at his desk, reviewing a pile of documents. Most of the documents were from the North African military headquarters, among them were a prospectus from the Hurricane Group and the acquisition plan.
To put it bluntly, Hurricane was out to compete with the Gu family for territory. However, the methods of the Hurricane Group were rather powerful. Gu Jinglian originally thought that Gong Jie was the one who had proposed this acquisition plan. However, when he came to the end of the document, he saw an unfamiliar signatureâGong Fan.
Gong Fan?
He had never heard of this person.
He had interacted with most of the key players in the Hurricane Group, and Gong Jie was the most terrifying one.
