"Yeah, okay, I'll be right there."
Gu Kai ended the call and glanced at Shen Ruo, his voice cold. "I've got something to do, so I'm leaving first. You stay out of trouble and stop bumping into this or that, got it?"
Shen Ruo really wanted to answer him with, "What's it to you?" But recalling the gloomy expression on his face just moments ago, she held back.
Gu Kai didn't seem to expect her to reply anyway; he gave a few instructions to Sister Zhang before taking off.
At lunchtime, Mother Wu brought a rich meal over and stayed to take care of her for a few hours before leaving.
When it was time to sleep, Shen Ruo kept thinking about the person on the other end of Gu Kai's phone call, someone who could soften his tone like that.
So far, she didn't seem to recall ever seeing Gu Kai being polite to anyone.
That person must be very important to Gu Kai.
