Chapter 217: Not Forgiving

Gu Dai nodded, signaling for Song Ling to continue speaking.
Song Ling said, “I acquired Zhou Corporation for your sake, so you should be thankful.”
Unmoved, Gu Dai responded calmly, “While Zhou Corporation may be inferior to Song Corporation, it has considerable growth potential and could benefit Song Group in the future. So, how can 1 be sure you’re not morally blackmailing me?”
Song Ling tried to speak, but found himself at a loss for words. Frustrated, he turned to leave but misjudged the transparent restaurant door and walked right into it.
Irritated, he kicked the door and quickly walked away.
Gu Dai observed this sequence of actions from Song Ling and fell silent.
Zhao Xuan, who had witnessed Song Ling’s behavior, was torn between face-palming and speaking up as his subordinate.
Looking at Gu Dai, he said, “Chairwoman Gu, President Song truly acquired Zhou Corporation for your sake.”
Gu Dai remained undisturbed, merely nodding her head.
Zhao Xuan continued, “Upon seeing the unfavorable news about you online, he was furious. He immediately had me dig up dirt on Zhou Gang and also gave the information to Mrs. Zhou, which led to their divorce.”
This revelation left Gu Dai somewhat surprised. She hadn’t expected Song Ling would go as far as to break up a couple.
Zhao Xuan then hurriedly left to catch up with the departing Song Ling.
Su Ting looked at the silent Gu Dai, his clenched hands hidden behind his back.
His Sis had finally returned to his side, and he had no intention of letting anyone else have her.
Suppressing his internal unrest, he tentatively asked, “Sis, are you considering forgiving Song Ling?”
Gu Dai shook her head, her reply resolute. “No.”
A wave of joy instantly washed over Su Ting.
Gu Dai said, “Song Ling ignored me for three full years and spent time with other women during our marriage. How could one good deed make me forget all that?”
She thought Song Ling was naive. Just because he had done one thing for her, he expected her to be grateful. What about all the terrible things he had done before? Shouldn’t he atone for those with his life?
Gu Zhi had been pondering ways to deal with Gu Dai, only to dismally realize she couldn’t handle her alone; she needed Gu Si’s help.
Since Gu Si was enjoying his time abroad and didn’t seem concerned about her suffering at Gu Dai’s hands, she resolved to take matters into her own hands.
Gu Zhi remembered that Gu Si had a daughter named Gu Yin who had left the country. She was young and easy to control.
If Gu Zhi held Gu Yin hostage, Gu Si would have to help her.
In the wake of her realization, Gu Zhi acted on the firm belief that she would not ignore her daughter, Gu Yin.
With resolve crystallizing within her, Gu Zhi gathered all her spare cash, sparing no expense, to commission a search for Gu Yin, intent on bringing her back to the Capital.
The next day, Gu Yin arrived.
At the airport, Gu Zhi rushed to her, embracing her tightly and exclaimed, “You must be my cousin Gu Yin. You’re just as pretty as I imagined!”
Gu Yin blushed and lowered her head, quietly saying, “h.e.l.lo, Cousin.”
Handing her a teddy bear, Gu Zhi smiled and said, “Yinyin, this is a gift from me. I hope you like it.”
Gu Yin couldn’t believe it. Holding the teddy bear tightly, she said, “You’re the first person to give me a gift. You’re so kind, Zhizhi!”
Gu Zhi’s smile widened; children were so easy to win over
Especially a kid like Gu Yin, who grew up in a loveless home with an alcoholic father and a negligent mother, who offloaded her responsibility to the nanny.
Squatting down, Gu Zhi whispered, “I have something to tell you. Your cousin from your Big Uncle’s family, Gu Dai, is a bad person. She always targets me for no reason. If you ever run into her, keep your distance, okay?”
Gu Yin nodded, fearfully. She had already labeled Gu Dai as a bad person in her mind.
Gu Zhi said, “Yinyin, you’re so obedient. How about we take a picture?”
Gu Yin replied, “Okay.”
After snapping the photo, Gu Zhi sent it to Gu Si right away..
