"Was it just you at home last night?"

  Facing Gu Yu Sheng's sudden question, the butler's fingertips trembled slightly, and he replied calmly: "Yes."

  Could it be that he remembered wrongly? Gu Yu's eyebrows furrowed.

  "Mr. Gu?" The butler couldn't help but speak out when he saw that Gu Yusheng didn't react.

  Gu Yu regained his composure.

  Maybe he was drunk and took his dream as reality for a moment, just like when he was upstairs, didn't he think he had vomited, but when he turned around to look, there were no signs of vomiting at all?

  Here is the translation:

  Thinking of this, Gu Yu Sheng quickly stretched out his hand to take over the teacup, rinsed his mouth, and then stood up. He tidied up his clothes and was about to leave when he suddenly seemed to think of something, his face turned pale and cold, and his tone also became chilly: "Oh, right, she should be back from the crew by now, remind her to go to the old place next Wednesday to wait for me, it's Grandpa's birthday."

  After finishing speaking, a trace of annoyance flashed across Gu Yusheng's eyes, and he picked up the phone on the dinner table without any hesitation and left.

  -

  The Gu family is in Beijing and belongs to a famous and respected clan. It's an old family with several hundred years of history, with a strong foundation and extensive connections.

  Mr. Gu's birthday was originally intended to be a low-key affair, with only close family and friends gathering together for a reunion dinner.

  But on Wednesday, there were still many people who wanted to get close to Gu's family and took advantage of Mr. Gu's birthday to bring heavy gifts and come uninvited to celebrate his longevity.

  It's a birthday party, which is supposed to be a joyful occasion. Everyone has arrived, so it can't be stopped at the door. By 5 pm, the living room of the Gu family's old house was already half full of people.

  -

  Gu Yu Sheng only let the butler inform Qin Zhi Ai that they would meet at their usual place on Mr. Gu's birthday, without telling her what time to meet.

  Like last time when Grandpa came back from Hainan, Qin Zhi'ai went to the entrance of the alley early to wait for Gu Yu-sheng when they were going to eat at the old house.

  Gu Yu Sheng was probably held up by something and Qin Zhi Ai waited for more than two hours without seeing Gu Yu Sheng arrive.

  The summer sun was a bit big, and Qin Zhi'ai had been hiding in the shade all along, but she still sweated a lot. After a long time, it's inevitable to feel thirsty. Qin Zhi'ai's phone was blacklisted by Gu Yu Sheng, and she couldn't get through to him. She didn't know when he would come, so after hesitating for a moment, she walked to the supermarket across the street and bought a bottle of iced water.

  When a bottle of water was almost finished, Gu Yusheng's car finally arrived.

  Qin Zhi'ai threw the empty bottle into the trash can and then picked up the birthday gift she had prepared in advance for Mr. Gu, got on the car.

  It had been more than two months since they last met, and when Gu Yu Sheng ran into her again, she was still the same as before - her eyebrows and eyes were cold and distant, her expression detached.

  Qin Zhi'ai knew that Gu Yu Sheng was not willing to talk to her, so after she got on the car, she tactfully avoided humiliating herself by greeting him.

  Gu Yu arrived late and by the time he drove to the old Gu residence, there was no more parking space left in the courtyard. The car could only be parked on the roadside outside the gate.
