Gu Yibo had taken Gu Xinzhou away, following Song Zhen as they left.
Cassie stood there alone.
He had never imagined that his first meeting with the family of the girl he cherished would turn out like this.
Even less did he expect that the hardships Gu Xinzhou had endured were far more than he had imagined!
A waiter came in, "Sir, do you still want these dishes?"
Cassie took a deep breath and pointed at two dishes that McDull would like, saying, "Pack these two dishes, along with that unopened bottle of red wine and those three gifts, and send them to my suite."
The waiter replied, "Yes, sir."
Inside the car.
Song Zhen was driving himself, taking Gu Yibo away from the hotel.
He glanced at the rearview mirror and asked, "Uncle Gu, do you want to go to the hospital?"
"No need, find a hotel, I'll put Zhouzhou there, then sing to her, and she will come around," Gu Yibo said, becoming emotional, "This is a song her grandmother taught her mother. Her mother never got the chance to sing it to her, and it was always her grandmother who sang it to her before she turned seven in the countryside."
Song Zhen drove into a high-end residential compound.
Gu Yibo was curious, "Song Zhen, where are you taking us?"
With both hands tightly gripping the steering wheel, and his heart still anxious for Gu Xinzhou, Song Zhen replied, "This is my private place, unknown to anyone, it has been unoccupied since it was refurbished two years ago.
It is more convenient for Zhouzhou to stay here than in a hotel.
Tomorrow I will call a few people over to clean up and cook."
Gu Yibo didn't object, "Thank you, Song Zhen."
The car stopped in the parking spot.
Song Zhen opened the back door and took Gu Xinzhou from Gu Yibo's hands.
At that instant, holding her supple body in his arms, Song Zhen's nose inexplicably began to feel sour.
For so many years, he had battled through the business world, with all its ups and downs and hardships, but he had never felt like crying.
The handsome Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed.
Suddenly, Song Zhen looked tenderly at the small face in his arms, "Zhouzhou, we're home."
Before long, Gu Xinzhou was settled on the sofa.
In the room, Song Zhen personally made up her bed, while from the living room, the sound of Gu Yibo singing to Gu Xinzhou could be heard.
Song Zhen wasn't sure if he could sing himself.
He had never sung before.
Not even when he was a child.
But he had recorded every lyric that Gu Yibo sang.
He even secretly sang along while making the bed in the room.
Gu Yibo sang for about half an hour.
The maids and bodyguards called by Song Zhen all arrived.
Gu Xinzhou seemed to awaken from a dream, her eyes slowly regaining their brightness, and her gaze gradually focusing.
Suddenly, Gu Yibo was overjoyed, "Zhouzhou~ Zhouzhou~ Daddy's little treasure, you really scared Daddy, wake up now!"
Gu Xinzhou's thoughts slowly gathered, and she looked at Gu Yibo with a puzzled face, "Daddy?"
She looked around in confusion, "Where is this place?"
Song Zhen watched Gu Xinzhou.
One thing he was certain of now: Her psychological issue was very serious!
"You fainted just now," Gu Yibo didn't want to hurt his daughter's self-esteem, so he lied, "Just like when you were little, you passed out.
Zhouzhou, Song Zhen brought us here, this is his house.
Daddy is taking you, and we'll stay here for a few days."
Gu Xinzhou suddenly stood up, too anxious to even put on her shoes, and ran outside, "I must go back!"
What about Cassie?
And McDull, McDull is still waiting for her at the hotel!
Gu Yibo quickly followed after her.
But he found that Song Zhen had gotten there before him, rushing forward to scoop Gu Xinzhou up in his arms, "I won't let you go again! Never!"
