Qin Chong affirmed, âYes, Huo Sicheng isnât disabled; heâs capable of walking.â
Chu He was incredulous. âThatâs impossible!â she exclaimed, refusing to believe Qin Chongâs words. âHuo Sicheng has been wheelchair-bound from childhood.
How could he possibly walk? You must be delirious from your anger towards Gu Qingcheng.â
Qin Chong, with a furrowed brow, insisted, âWhile I am indeed infuriated by Gu Qingcheng, Iâm not speaking nonsense. Huo Sicheng truly isnât disabled. He stood up right before my eyes.â
Chu He was stunned. âIf Huo Sicheng isnât disabled, why has he been using a wheelchair for so many years?â
Qin Chongâs expression turned icy as he contemplated Huo Sichengâs deliberate torment. He felt a deep desire to tear Huo Sicheng apart.
âItâs better not to delve too much into this matter.â
Chu He probed further, asking Qin Chong, âIs Gu Qingcheng aware of Huo
Sichengâs actual condition?â
Recalling his own inquiry to Huo Sicheng, Qin Chong replied, âGu Qingcheng is aware of it.â
âThat despicable Gu Qingcheng,â Chu He fumed, âShe knew all along Huo Sicheng wasnât disabled. No wonder she left Qin Jun for Huo Sicheng. I thought it was satisfying that Gu Qingcheng married a âcrippleâ like Huo Sicheng, as she would be condemned to a lonely life. But now, learning that Huo Sicheng is not disabled, sheâs actually married a wealthy, handsome, and capable man. This infuriates meâ¦
Overhearing Chu Heâs enraged rant on the phone, Qin Chong felt agitated and displeased.
âStop yelling. We shouldnât be concerned with Huo Sichengâs disability right now,â he reprimanded her sternly. âFirst, arrange medical treatment for Tianhao, and then rush to Guâs Corporation. You need to get into the board of directors meeting before Gu Qingcheng has a chance to intervene. Huo Sicheng wonât be able to touch you then.â
Upon hearing this, Chu He hastily agreed, âRight, youâre correct. Iâll head to Guâs Corporation first.â
âIâll be at Guâs Corporation waiting for you,â Qin Chong stated before ending the call.
At that moment, Gu Qingcheng watched Qin Chongâs private car vanish from her sight. She narrowed her eyes thoughtfully and dialed a number on her phone.
Huo Sicheng, sitting in a spacious conference room, was in the middle of a meeting. He answered the call immediately upon seeing the caller ID.
âIâm here,â he spoke, his voice a gentle caress.
The executives in the room were taken aback to witness the usually stern and aloof President Huo display such tenderness. They watched in disbelief.
Chu Yu, recognizing the softness in President Huoâs voice, quickly deduced Gu Qingcheng was on the line. He promptly dismissed the executives to give Huo Sicheng privacy.
Hearing Huo Sichengâs soothing voice, Gu Qingcheng felt her irritation at Qin Chong melt away, replaced by happiness.
However, she swiftly turned to the matter at hand. âHuo Sicheng, youâ¦â
Huo Sicheng gently corrected her, âCall me hubby.â
Gu Qingcheng laughed lightly, âHubby, are you free now?â
Huo Sicheng responded affirmatively, âYes.â
Gu Qingcheng requested, âCould you come to Gu Corporation? Iâm on my way there too. Wait for me in the parking garage.â Huo Sicheng agreed with a simple, âOkay.â
After hanging up, Gu Qingcheng contacted Li Jing.
âMaster, I have an urgent matter today and wonât be at Royal Dance. Please take care of Ziyu in my absence.â
Li Jing expressed concern, âQingcheng, you promised to focus on the Peach
Lotus Cup final. Whatâs happening now?â
Sensing Li Jingâs worry, Gu Qingcheng reassured, âTrust me, Iâll be prepared for the cup.â
She vividly remembered missing the Peach Lotus Cup in her previous life due to her painful days in the hospital.
Li Jing relented, âAlright, attend to your matters. But remember, the Peach
Lotus Cup competition is the day after tomorrow. Donât let anything interfere.â
Gu Qingcheng affirmed, âI understand. The Peach Lotus Cup final wonât be
affected.â
After ending the call, she contacted Lu Chi.
âLu Chi, Gu Tianhao was pushed from the sixth floor of the Gu family villa and is currently in critical condition in the hospital,â she informed him. âPlease investigate the incident at the villa and ensure Gu Tianhaoâs safety in the hospital.â
Lu Chiâs response was brief. âUnderstood, Iâll send someone.â
âLet me know the cost, and Iâll transfer the funds,â Gu Qingcheng clarified their professional relationship.
Before she could finish, Lu Chi had disconnected the call.
Gu Qingcheng pursed her lips, accustomed to Lu Chiâs abrupt manner. She then drove towards Guâs Corporation, reflecting on her only previous visit there.
It was a painful memory following her mother Mu Xiaâs death.
As she attempted to enter Guâs Corporation, she was halted by security.
Huo Sicheng, as the president of Huoâs Corporation, had unrestricted access, while she, the Gu familyâs daughter, was ironically denied entry.
The security inquired, âDo you have an invitation?â
Before Gu Qingcheng could respond, a respectful voice interjected, âItâs Miss
Gil.â
She turned to see Chu Yu approaching with reverence.
âMiss Gu, President Huo is already here waiting for you,â Chu Yu informed her. His recognition of her as Miss Gu astonished the security staff, who promptly opened the gates.
âPlease, Miss Gu,â they apologized.
Gu Qingcheng smiled warmly at Chu Yu, âThank you, Chu Yu.â
Chu Yu, Huo Sichengâs assistant, had spoken, and the security didnât dare to impede her further.
Grateful for Chu Yuâs timely intervention, Gu Qingcheng expressed her thanks.
Chu Yu, captivated by her smile, was momentarily spellbound. Remembering a previous incident, he hastily checked his surroundings, relieved that President Huo wasnât nearby.
Once, a smile from Gu Qingcheng had nearly resulted in his arm being broken by President Huo. He didnât want a repeat of that incident.
âPresident Huo asked me to wait here for you, Madame,â Chu Yu explained respectfully, âIf you wish to thank someone, it should be President Huo.â
âI know it was Huo Sicheng who sent you,â Gu Qingcheng acknowledged, perceiving Chu Yuâs fear of Huo Sichengâs jealousy. She smiled, âBut it was you who came to my aid, and Iâm grateful for that.â
Chu Yu was pleasantly surprised by her words and responded with a grateful smile.
âMadame, President Huo is waiting in the garage.â
âIâm aware,â Gu Qingcheng replied, âIâm on my way to meet him.â
âUnderstood,â Chu Yu acknowledged.
As Gu Qingcheng entered the parking garage of Guâs Corporation and prepared to meet Huo Sicheng, she unexpectedly encountered Chu He and Qin Chong.
Upon seeing Gu Qingcheng, Chu He reacted with shock and apprehension, asking, âWhat brings you here?â
