Gu Yusheng had been so ruthless that Qin Zhi'ai couldn't get out of bed for a few consecutive days. Fortunately for her, Liang Doukou had no upcoming events, so Qin Zhi'ai didn't have to go out. She could stay at home and have a good rest. By the time she had pulled through from that night's horror, a week had passed.
And during that week, Gu Yusheng didn't return home at all, just like before.
Only Gu Yusheng himself and those from the Gu Mansion knew his home phone number.
Ever since Qin Zhi'ai had started living in his house, Gu Yusheng treated the house like it had never existed and had never called.
Thus, the phone was no different from a decoration, other than when the Gu Mansion called.
That afternoon, when the phone rang, the housekeeper was in the kitchen preparing fruit tea. Whereas Qin Zhi'ai, who had happened to be sitting on the living room sofa watching TV, picked up without looking at the number displayed as she thought it was a call from the Gu Mansion.
