Shocked, Gu Lingsha bit her lower lip lightly as her eyes were filled with dissatisfaction when she looked at Gu Qiwu who squinted at her angrily. “Have you forgotten what I told you?”

“Father, Xi Xiaye provoked me! You just didn’t see her. She left no room for me to breathe. I thought she’d learn her lesson after her arms were hurt! We should get rid of her first. Mu Yuchen is really concerned about her. If we create some kind of accident…” Gu Lingsha was desperately searching for an excuse for herself.

“That’s enough, Lingsha! I don’t know how you became so stubborn. I already told you not to mess with them. Did you actually listen to me!” Gu Qiwu was annoyed. “It’s a critical period right now. Qi Kai has just only stabilized, and your marriage with Qi Feng has barely been announced, yet you’ve stirred up this mess right now. Have you ever thought about the consequences of your actions? You know very well what could happen.”

“But, Father, I can’t just let her…”

“I don’t know what kind of person Xi Xiaye is, but I do know you very well. You promised me you wouldn’t do anything without consulting me. You must know what’s important to us right now. What’s the point of getting involved with them at this point in time?!” He shot her a disapproving glance.

Although Gu Lingsha could not accept it, she knew she was at fault, so she lowered her head and took a deep breath. Noticing that her father was so worked up, she apologized, “I’m sorry. I acted recklessly.”

Gu Qiwu looked away and drank some tea from the cup beside him. “You’ve not been looking very well recently. Don’t forget your purpose here! You guys don’t even have the resources to fight Mu Yuchen right now. Qi Qiming is a cautious man as well. What do you think he’s thinking now that this has happened?”

Gu Qiwu’s tone was grim. He put the teacup down before looking at Gu Lingsha. “I’ve reminded you that Qi Feng is getting impatient as well. You understand your relations.h.i.+p with Mu Yuchen the best. It’ll be horrible if the reporters manage to find out about the past. Why would you even be alone with Mu Yuchen?”

“Father, I didn’t know he was on the veranda at the time. I felt a little dizzy after having slightly too much to drink, so I went out to get some fresh air and didn’t expect to see him there…It’s already too late to say anything now. Don’t be too worried about it, Father. Uncle Qi invited some media portals to cover some news on my life with Ah Feng. Those rumors will go away on its own when people see how happy we are together!” Gu Lingsha explained.

“Do you take everyone as idiots? Only Qi Qiming could think of stupid ideas like that.” Gu Qiwu was not impressed.

“What should I do then?” Gu Lingsha frowned and asked for advice.

Gu Qiwu leaned back in his chair. “Register your marriage with Qi Feng right away and get your marriage certificate earlier. Try to leak the news to the media. You should also go to work as usual. They won’t be able to get anything if you’re innocent.”

His thoughts were the polar opposite of Qi Qiming’s!

“But Uncle Qi told me to stay at home for now, and Ah Feng agreed as well. Moreover, Weiwei hasn’t been doing very well lately. I’m worried…” Gu Lingsha frowned.

“You’re making yourself seem guilty if you try to hide. It’s a critical period for South River Project No. 2 right now and people will take advantage of your incident, especially Qi Lei. You need to be constantly on your toes around him, understand?”

“Qi Lei? Beware of him?” Gu Lingsha was puzzled. “He doesn’t seem suspicious, does he?”

Gu Qiwu chuckled. “Not suspicious? You should be vigilant of him simply with the fact that he’s getting closer to Mu Yuchen.”

“Aren’t you overthinking this? Qi Lei’s forces have reduced significantly ever since w.a.n.g Qin’s death. He’s just a little project manager in the company right now who carries the empty t.i.tle of Vice President. Uncle Qi doesn’t really trust him, so it’ll be very difficult for him to get an important position. Uncle Qi also mentioned letting Qi Feng get used to the company’s operations. He should be handing Qi Kai over to him soon.”

Gu Lingsha did not think Qi Lei was a threat at the moment since Qi Qiming was probably very disappointed in him right now.

“Is what you said true?” Gu Qiwu squinted at Gu Lingsha. “How come I heard that Qi Lei landed a big project?”

A big project?

Gu Lingsha suddenly remembered the project in City B. “That’s thanks to w.a.n.g Qin’s subordinates. He was lucky that he didn’t screw up.” She did not seem very happy because she remembered very well that Qi Lei had been pus.h.i.+ng her into a corner, especially after saying those words to her the other day.

“Anything can happen before Qi Feng successfully takes over Qi Kai. Qi Qiming’s att.i.tude towards Qi Lei is the key. I heard that they’ve been getting along lately. What happened?”

Gu Lingsha gave it some thought before answering, “They are being a little odd recently. Actually, I can sense that Uncle Qi has been treating Qi Lei a little differently ever since he was discharged from the hospital.”

Gu Qiwu’s eyes darkened.
