Chapter 37: His and Her Past (7)

  Qin Zhi'ai didn't mention Gu Yu Sheng's name, she just used a "he", the housekeeper was stunned for a second before understanding: "Alright, miss."

  Because of the mask, Qin Zhi'ai's voice was slightly muffled: "Hangovers are really uncomfortable and will definitely give you a headache. You should make him a cup of honey tea, it'll make him feel a bit better."

  "Miss, I've taken note of that." The butler replied, then suddenly realized the time was still early and asked another question: "Miss, do you have work to attend to so early?"

  She wasn't busy with work, she was afraid that Gu Yu Sheng would wake up and see her lose her temper... Qin Zhi Ai didn't tell the truth to the housekeeper, lightly nodding her head and saying "en".

  "Miss, is there anything else you'd like to entrust me with?"

  Qin Zhi'ai thought for a moment and confirmed that she had said everything she wanted to say, then gently shook her head.

  She knew that the housekeeper had followed Gu Yu Sheng for many years, understood him better than she did, and was more capable of taking care of him. However, after shaking her head, Qin Zhi still couldn't help but add: "Take good care of him."

  "Don't worry, miss."

  Qin Zhi Ai slightly lowered her head and didn't say anything else.

  "The housekeeper pointed to the room: 'Then I'll go in first.'"

  "Uh-huh." Qin Zhi'ai responded with a murmur. As the butler opened the door, she called out to him again.

  She knew the housekeeper had turned to look at her, but she didn't look back at the housekeeper. Instead, she stared at a jasmine plant in the center of the courtyard that was full of white flowers and remained silent for a moment before speaking up: "Don't tell him I came back."

  The housekeeper was taken aback and blurted out: "Why?"

  At this time, Qin Zhi Ai was really grateful for the sunglasses and mask on her face, which could well hide the desolation and sadness at the bottom of her eyes. She tried to keep her tone steady, as if she were talking about something that had nothing to do with herself, and said lightly: "Because he knew, so he wouldn't drink that bowl of porridge."

  The housekeeper had always known that Mr. Gu disliked the young lady, but at this moment she heard such words from the young lady's mouth, suddenly reminding her of the scene where the young lady took the initiative to ask her for birth control pills, and like that time, she was stunned on the spot, somewhat unsure of how to respond.

  Compared to Guan Jia's flustered state, Qin Zhi Ai still had that calm and collected demeanor. She left a "thank you" behind before turning around and leaving.

  Qin Zhi'ai left for a short while, and Gu Yu Sheng woke up soon after.

  Hangover made his head ache badly. He opened his eyes, struggled to sit up in bed for a while before getting out of bed and going to the bathroom.

  After taking a hot bath, Gu Yu Sheng felt much more comfortable. He took out a set of home clothes from the dressing room and put them on. As he was about to leave the bedroom, he suddenly remembered that he might have thrown up last night while half asleep.

  Gu Yu stopped in his tracks and glanced towards the bed. The sheets and carpet were clean and tidy, with no signs of vomiting at all.

  Did he remember it wrong?

  Gu Yu furrowed his brow slightly, withdrew his gaze, opened the door and went downstairs.
