Chapter 1282 Alarmed! 6
Morrison alighted from the car behind them, but before he could get any closer, he could already hear Qi Feng’s incensed shouts, so he could not help but be alarmed.
He quickly walked up, and at this moment, Qi Feng had already opened the car door.
Morrison could feel the cold aura radiating from Qi Feng, and he immediately asked carefully, “Master, what…what’s wrong?”
“I’ll take the car behind. I’ve got some things to handle at the office. Send her back but help me over first.”
Because Qi Feng’s tone was solemn and mysterious, Morrison felt apprehensive. When he turned to look into the car, he noticed that Gu Lingsha was looking at Qi Feng with a sneer. She turned to look out of the window without any reaction.”
The husband and wife had probably been fighting. Earlier, when Gu Lingsha left the police station, Morrison could already sense her unhappiness, and now…
Nodding without any hesitance, Morrison helped Qi Feng to the car behind. Qi Feng did not linger any longer and made his way straight for Qi Kai.
While Morrison got into the car and turned to look at the gloomy Gu Lingsha, he softly asked the chauffeur to drive even before the car started. From the rearview mirror, he could see Qi Feng’s car drive away. Devastated, Gu Lingsha’s heart ached.
This was Qi Feng!
Every time they fought, he would be the one in the wrong, yet she would be the one suffering the hurt!
When Gu Lingsha thought about this, she felt all sorts of sadness and hurt. Her eyes started welling up with hot tears. She sniffled and felt herself choke up. Large drops of tears fell onto her cold hands, and in an instant, she only felt a burning hot sensation.
She could not help but lift a hand to cover that beautiful face of hers as she tried not to cry…
The sound of those stifled cries made Morrison sad. He thought about it for a while before he advised, “Missus, I don’t know what’s wrong between you and Master. Perhaps, there’s been some misunderstanding, and you need to sit down to discuss. Master’s been spending lots of energy on your matter to the point that he’s become much more wan and sallow. You should be understanding of him.”
“Understanding? Why won’t he be understanding of me then? Does he think that I wouldn’t be sad? I was in there for so many days, but did he care about me? You heard what he said at the police station the last time, and now he’s left me alone. Am I wrong? Whether it’s about being broad-minded or competent, he can’t compare to Mu Yuchen. Mu Yuchen’s never let Xi Xiaye suffer, but me? Every time I was hurt and faced something tough, where was he?” Gu Lingsha could not control the anger and sadness in her heart, so she spoke angrily with a tearful face.
However, when she said that, Morrison understood why Qi Feng had suddenly switched cars to leave!
How could Gu Lingsha compare her own husband to someone? And it had to be Qi Feng’s rival!
That was a huge no!
In that instant, Morrison could only shake his head helplessly!
“I’m a woman too. All women wish for their husbands to be a hero, and when hard times come, to come out and help them resolve the crisis. But what did Qi Feng do? He only spares his mind for Qi Kai, doesn’t he? Don’t think I don’t know that the only reason I’m released this soon is because of my mother, Doris! And not him! Not Qi Feng! Do you understand?” Gu Lingsha was practically shouting toward the end.
“Missus, since you’re fine now, why do you have to be petty about these things? As long as you’re released, isn’t that good enough? You must know that because of your issue, Master’s been trying very hard. In fact, he…”
Before Morrison could finish, Gu Lingsha had cut him off harshly, “You don’t need to speak for him! I know better than you the kind of person he is. I have my own conclusions!”
“Missus…”
“Let’s go to the hotel to see my mother!” Gu Lingsha suddenly said.
“Miss Doris is probably not at the hotel now. Besides, the dishes have been prepared at home. You’ve been detained for so long, so it’s best if you rest well first,” Morrison said with a sigh.
Gu Lingsha’s eyes dimmed. Finally, she stopped talking, but her reddened eyes remained tearful…
…
The news of Gu Lingsha’s release almost immediately reached Xi Xiaye.
The autumn sun was dazzling, and the Fuhua Real Estate building was engulfed in a layer of gentle gold.
Xi Xiaye was busy in her office as always. Xiao Mei walked in and said that she was going to hand some doc.u.ments over to Lan Zilang. When Xi Xiaye snapped back from her busyness and looked at the calendar, she suddenly remembered something and quickly asked Xiao Mei, “Isn’t Qi Lei back yet? I remember him saying that he’ll come over today.”
Xiao Mei took over the doc.u.ments, thought about it, then responded, “Yes, CEO Xi! I thought it was weird too when I saw the schedule earlier, so I called a.s.sistant Yang, but he didn’t pick up.”
Upon hearing that, Xi Xiaye frowned. She paused and then picked up her phone. When she found Qi Lei’s number, she quickly called his cell phone.
The call did get through, but no one answered it though. Xi Xiaye called twice before she decided to give up.
“Looks like he might still be busy. Go and check whether or not he’s back. When he is, tell him to come over right away,” Xi Xiaye ordered softly.
“Okay, CEO Xi! Got it!”
Xi Xiaye nodded, and then kept her phone away.
“Right, CEO Qi, earlier the police station released news that Gu Lingsha has been released. Qi Feng picked her up personally and they seemed to have gone straight home to the Qi residence,” Xiao Mei informed Xi Xiaye of the news.
Was she out now?
Xi Xiaye paused and slowly leaned back against her chair. She held up the tea and took an idle sip. “Didn’t Gu Qiwu go too?”
“No, he seems to be at a business meeting with a client.”
“Mmm, okay, go down first and give Qi Lei a call again. Inform me if there’s anything.”
“Okay, CEO Qi! I’ll go out now!”
Xiao Mei said, then turned around to leave the office.
When she heard the door close, Xi Xiaye breathed in, then her calm gaze looked at her phone. She thought about it, and in the end, was still worried, so she picked up the phone and called the Vice President of Glory World, Liu Lingyu.
