The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife Chapter 892 - Father and Daughter (2)

As Gu Lingsha said that, she handed the large bag in her hand to Butler Fang who was stunned for a moment. Then, he reached out to take it before he smiled a little wistfully, “Thank you, Miss, for remembering these things.”

“I’ve always adored everyone. Alright now, I’ll go on first.”

Then, Gu Lingsha walked unhurriedly inside.

At this moment, at the flower wall in the backyard, the refres.h.i.+ng wind gently hummed past, filling the air faintly with the blend of floral fragrance.

Gu Qiwu was lying on the rattan chair while flipping through a newspaper as his subordinate Ah Yong stood aside quietly.

When he heard the sound of footsteps from the winding corridor, Ah Yong turned to look vigilantly. The moment Gu Lingsha’s exquisite beauty greeted his sight, he quickly turned around, walked up and whispered softly to Gu Qiwu, “Boss, Miss Lingsha’s back.”

Gu Qiwu flipped a page and responded indifferently, “Mmm, you go down first.”

“Yes, Boss!”

Without daring to hesitate, Ah Yong bowed and then retreated towards the other end of the corridor.

Gu Lingsha’s footsteps slowly became closer until she reached behind Gu Qiwu. She stopped and smiled to greet respectfully and politely, “Father!”

As her crisp voice fell, Gu Qiwu looked up from his newspaper in an instant. Turning to look at Gu Lingsha, his grave face revealed the rare smile of a loving father. “You’re back!”

Gu Lingsha’s slender figure walked over as she reached out to put a hand on Gu Qiwu’s shoulders, considerately and obediently ma.s.saging Gu Qiwu. She responded, “Knowing that you’re around, of course, I had to come back to visit. Before this, it was always just me, so I was a little afraid of coming back alone because I’d always think of Grandmother.”

When Gu Qiwu heard her reply, his eyes dimmed slightly, then he said calmly, “It’s been so many years now. It’s not wrong to come home and visit, especially if you really have the heart. After all, your grandmother loved you the most.”

Gu Lingsha stiffened, but she quickly relaxed and quietly answered, “Yes, I know, Father.”

Gu Qiwu looked tired as he spoke and put away the newspaper in his hand, “How’s work coming along recently? The two managers have roughly explained to me about South River Project No. 2, so I’m clear of the situation. This project should also go with you and your mother’s wishes, thus I’ll let you decide how to do it.”

“Yes, Father, thank you for your support! You love me the most, unlike mother. She only knows how to limit me.” Gu Lingsha could not help but complain a little.

“Your mother’s just worried about you. If you don’t go home to visit often, she might be coming to City Z to visit you in a few days. I’ve seen your Uncle Qi the other day too. When Qi Feng’s back, shouldn’t you and him be thinking about your wedding? Weiwei’s old enough now, so she should go to school when she returns. Recently, the doctor said that her situation’s improved a lot. We can’t always make her feel like she’s different from other children. Besides, Mu Lingtian’s been dead for many years now. Even if you two feel guilty towards him, it’s been so long,” Gu Qiwu said in a sincere and earnest tone.

As he said that, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Gu Lingsha with a glum expression. “Are you still blaming me for not rescuing Mu Lingtian years ago?”

Gu Lingsha quickly shook her head. In an instant, she looked sad and pale as pain flashed in her blue eyes. “I don’t blame you, Father. Back then when he was protecting me, I knew he wouldn’t make it. He exchanged his life for mine and Weiwei’s. In fact, Qi Feng also agreed that Weiwei would be his daughter from hereon, so Weiwei has two fathers. One is Qi Feng, and the other is Mu Lingtian. When Weiwei used to look at Lingtian’s pictures, she’d always say that she was so lucky to have such a handsome father. Sadly, Weiwei’s situation is sometimes good, sometimes unfortunate…”

After that, she suddenly could not speak as she choked on her sobs.

“Alright, since you know that’s the case, then he should feel glad too. Qi Feng’s a pretty good guy since he’s principled and knows how to repay a deed, but he’s Weiwei’s real father, so you should also care about his feelings too. As for Qi Qiming, he’s long considered himself Weiwei’s grandfather. Even though his legs aren’t very agile now, he’s really kind to you. In the future, it won’t be too easy for him to step in and handle Qi Kai, so you’ll need to hold things up. Without a clear ident.i.ty, it won’t be easy for you to explain to those shareholders,” Gu Qiwu incisively a.n.a.lyze as he looked to Gu Lingsha, “Also, as for the things between you and Qi Lei, you have to watch your words and actions, especially in front of him. The accident from six years ago took a huge blow on him. I’m a man too. In such a situation, he’s become emotionally dependent on you. Therefore, you have to be more vigilant. Don’t act too concerned about Qi Lei or other men in front of him. Otherwise, if anything happens, you’ll need to handle it yourself. I’m sure you know this very well.”

“Yes, Father, I understand! Qi Feng trusts me very much, and I sincerely would never leave him. He knows that. I’m just worried that Qi Lei will ruin things. Ever since w.a.n.g Qin pa.s.sed away, he’s changed, even towards me. He’s been very cold. The last time I went to his house, I wanted to advise him to forgive Uncle Qi, hoping that the two of them could reconcile, but unexpectedly Qi Lei hates him to the bones. I can tell that w.a.n.g Qin’s death took a huge toll on him. I’m really worried and I feel sad for him.”

Gu Lingsha did not hide her grave concern. She hesitated before continuing, “Father, Qi Lei…seems to have fallen for Xi Xiaye. In fact, he’s very close to Mu Yuchen… If we could…achieve three things at one go…”

“LIngsha, don’t interfere in matters with Mu Yuchen. Do you think I don’t know that it was you who did that at Mu Yuchen’s wedding banquet last year? If I didn’t deal with the aftermath, Mu Yuchen would’ve known that it was you. Just do what you should do. Without full confidence, don’t even think about those things.”

When this was brought up, Gu Qiwu was a little irritated. Along with Qi Feng, he had taken on all these burdens for them!

“Father!” Gu Lingsha could easily read his body language. From Gu Qiwu’s tone, she could hear his annoyance, so she then calmed down. “I got it.”

Gu Qiwu took a look at Gu Lingsha as he reached out to take the gla.s.s of water aside to drink a sip. Then, he asked nonchalantly, “Did your mother ask about…the South River Project recently?”
