Chapter 8: Where's Your Ring?

affairs, if I'm not mistaken, they were most likely orchestrated by Gu Chi, the CEO of遲曜 Group. He's the second son of the esteemed Gu family and Ah Han's uncle."Gu Chi! The illustrious Gu Chi! The co...On his long slender ring finger, he wore a simple and unpretentious diamond ring.

It was the very same one she had bought before.

Su Keixin was stunned, she even forgot to sit down at the table. In the end, it was Gu Chi who looked up at her.

"What's wrong" Gu Chi opened his mouth, his gaze sweeping over her empty fingers, his brow slightly raised. "Where's your wedding ring"

Su Keqin suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Before, she felt that the ring she bought wasn't suitable for Gu Chi, so in front of him, she wouldn't wear her own. Unexpectedly, Gu Chi actually found the ring she had put away and even wore it

Su Ke Xin could only reach into her bag and take out the ring. As she put it on, she couldn't help but whisper, "I'm sorry, I just picked a random style."

Gu Chi's lips curled into a smile. "It's fine, it looks good."

Su Ke Xin didn't know how to respond now, she could only sit down and start eating breakfast in silence.

After breakfast, Gu Chi folded the newspaper in his hand and said softly, "I'll give you a ride to work."

"No need," Su Keqin quickly said, "I can just take a taxi or the subway."

Just kidding, what if those people from the magazine recognized Gu Chi She would be torn to shreds by those women in the magazine!

"This is far from the subway station," Gu Chi frowned slightly, "and there are no taxis to be had."

Indeed, Su Kexin noticed this when she moved in yesterday. In this wealthy residential area, all the residents drive their own cars, so there are naturally no taxis or subway stations.

Su Ke Xin glanced at her watch, it wasn't too early either, she could only speak up: "Could you please, take me to the nearest subway station on your way"

Gu Chi raised his eyes and glanced at Su Ke Xin, making Su Ke Xin a little nervous for a moment. But in the end, Gu Chi still nodded.

Su Keqin and Gu Chi walked to the door, and a black Bentley was already parked outside.

A young man stood beside the car, introducing himself as Yang Zuo, Gu Chi's assistant.

Yang Zuo opened the car door, Su Kexin was thinking about how Gu Chi would get into the car, and she saw a metal plate fall from the car. Gu Chi's wheelchair smoothly slid up and into the car.

Su KeXin got into the car and discovered that the interior was also modified, with a special place for Gu Chi's wheelchair.

After Su Keixin sat down, the car started quickly and drove straight to the nearest subway station.

The car was parked beside the subway station. Through the window, Gu Chi could see the bustling environment outside. His handsome sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, "It's too inconvenient for you to commute like this. If you don't want me to pick you up and drop you off, I can get a car for you."

Su Keixin was stunned for a moment, then immediately spoke: "Really don't need to."

She knew of course that a car meant nothing to Gu Chi, but she still felt weird about spending his money.

For Su Ke Xin's thoughtless refusal, Gu Chi's black eyes sank slightly, and then he spoke again: "I'm not often at the villa, how do you get to work alone."

To this, Su Keqin had already thought about it on the way just now, and immediately took out her phone and shook it. "Car booking services are very convenient now. I can book a car a few minutes early. That...I'm going to be late, so I'll get off here first, see you later."

Speaking, Su Kexin quickly got out of the car.

In the car, Gu Chi stared out the window at her tiny figure running farther and farther away. His eyes were dark and deep.

When Yang Zuo, who was driving ahead, saw this scene, he finally couldn't help but speak up: “That... Young Master Gu, I feel that the Madam is different from what we investigated before”

Gu Chi gazed out the window at Su Ke Xin's retreating figure, thoughtful. "It's indeed quite different."

He really didn't expect Su Keixin to so readily refuse his offer to buy her a car.

He had Yang Zuo investigate Su Ke Xin's past. He thought she should be a superficial and materialistic woman who would sell anything for a little money.

It was precisely this point that made him choose her.

A woman who can be bought for a pittance is far safer and easier to control than those so-called wealthy socialite princesses who are obsessed with his fortune.

Of course, he also admitted that another reason for choosing her was that she didn't make him dislike her.

But unexpectedly, she didn't seem to want her money at all

Or maybe she's more cunning than I thought, skilled in the art of playing hard to get

Gu Chi's eyes darkened slightly before he finally withdrew his gaze.

"Drive."

……

The top floor of the Chi Yao Group Building in the S city Financial District.

Gu Zhi sat at his desk, his fingers flying across the keyboard as images and numbers on the screen rapidly changed.

Ring ring.

The phone on the table suddenly rang, and Gu Chi pressed it at random. Yang Zuo's voice came from the phone.

"Young Master Gu, Young Master Lin is here."

"Let him in."

The office door swung open quickly, and a handsome man with sharp eyebrows wearing a bright pink flashy shirt strode in.

"Gu Chi, are you still working" The man exclaimed dramatically when he saw Gu Chi, "I thought you finally got married. Even if you didn't have a wedding, at least you should go on a honeymoon or something."

Gu Chi's eyes were still fixed on the computer screen, he briefly threw out three words, "No time."

The visitor had already taken a seat at Gu Chi's table. He wasn't angry about Gu Chi's coldness, he just narrowed his peach blossom eyes and smiled again, "Sister-in-law is truly pitiful, marrying such a man with no sense of romance."

Gu Zhi finally focused his gaze on the other person, but his face remained expressionless. "Lin Ze, what do you want to say."

Lin Ze's smile made his peach blossom eyes into crescents, "I was just bored and wanted to see my sister-in-law."

"Don't even think about it." Gu Chi refused without hesitation. "You should know the reason why I married her."

"Of course I know." Lin Ze curled his lips, the smile gradually fading away. "But no matter what, you've finally settled down. You can let go of the past, can't you"

The moment Gu Chi heard Lin Ze's words, his hands on the keyboard tightened ever so slightly, almost imperceptibly.

"There's nothing to let go of." After a moment of silence, Gu Chi spoke slowly, "The dead cannot be brought back to life."

Lin Ze looked at Gu Chi, opening his mouth to say something, but the words died on his lips.

"What about that little girl from back then" Lin Ze couldn't help but ask again, "Has she been found"erstood her sister's meaning instantly. She stood up at once, coughed twice, and pulled on Ji Xiangru's arm with a slight force, saying with a smile."This brother is unaware, my sister does indeed hav...
