Chapter 82: Great Job

Translator: _Min_

Shi Nuan’s gaze landed on Gu Dai from time to time. Her eyes filled with a growing curiosity and uncertainty, deepening her perplexity like a shadow stretching with the descending sun.

Gu Dai had noticed this early on, and with a gentle sigh, she said, “If you have anything you want to ask, Nuannuan, just ask.”

Shi Nuan’s face seemed caught between a frown and a question as she whispered, “Daidai, do you have a grudge with Song Shi’s Song Ling? When we bumped into him at the door earlier, he looked at you so fiercely, and his eyes were full of inquiry when he looked at you.”

The night was calm and the moon a sliver in the sky, as Gu Dai turned her eyes to Shi Nuan and softly revealed, “Song Ling is the man 1 married during the three years I lost my memory. He’s my ex-husband.”

Shi Nuan’s reaction was one of utter shock. Her body froze and her face filled with disbelief.

When she discovered the odd atmosphere between Gu Dai and Song Ling, many guesses, thoughts and theories formulated in her head, but that was the only possibility she didn’t consider.

With a sudden resurgence of anger, she exclaimed, “I can’t believe Song Ling, this bastard, acts like a decent person outside, but changes completely at home. How dare he bully my precious Daidai? I’m going to break his leg!” Then she quickly picked up a stick from the ground and was ready to march forward.

Gu Dai quickly grab Shi Nuan, who was about the lung out.

Shi Nuan shouted, “Daidai, why did you stop me.”

Gu Dai gently patted Shi Nuan’s head and comforted, “People like Song Ling don’t need us to do anything. He will receive his retribution in the future.”

Song Ling, approaching them at this moment, overheard Gu Dai’s words. His face darkened as he coldly accused, “Gu Dai, so this is how you slander me behind my back!”

Gu Dai, slightly taken aback but composed, took a step forward, meeting his eyes as she counter-questioned, “Did I say anything wrong? After all, your affection for Miss Jiang Yue is not something new.”

Song Ling’s face turned frosty and his steps quickened as he moved towards Gu Dai, grabbing her hand and pulling her away.

Because everything happened so quickly, Shi Nuan reacted with haste, running up and grabbing Gu Dai’s other hand, her grip on the stick tightening as she warned, “I advise you to let go of Daidai, or don’t blame me for being rude!”

Gu Dai shook off Song Ling’s grip, whispering reassurance to Shi Nuan, “It’s okay. I’ll see what Song Ling is up to, and did you forget my abilities? Song Ling can’t beat me! You go back first, and say goodbye to Grandpa Shi for me. I’ll visit him next time.”

Shi Nuan, remembering Gu Dai’s ability, nodded but left a parting caution, “Daidai, be careful.”

After Shi Nuan’s departure, Gu Dai turned to Song Ling, her voice firm, “Let’s go-”

Gu Dai led the way as they walked.

Song Ling followed behind, his hand still pulsing from being shaken off and his eyes were on Gu Dai’s back, lost in thought. When did she get so strong?

The silence between them was heavy, broken only by Gu Dai’s impatient voice, “If you have anything you want to ask, just ask.”

Song Ling responded with a cold hum, his face as dark as coal, “Old Master Shi said that Shi Nuan wanted to know about the situation of Miss Gu from the Gu family from you. But 1 see that she seems to have a good relationship with you. Tell me, besides being Miss Gu’s secretary, what other identities do you have?”

Song Ling had previously thought that Gu Dai leveraged Su Ting’s identity to gain entry to the Gu Group. However, her surprising trustworthiness, and what seemed like a pleasant relationship with the Shi family, didn’t align with the treatment one would expect from someone who’d pulled strings to get where she was.

Gu Dai had initially assumed that Song Ling learned from Grandpa Shi that she was not merely a secretary but the young miss of the Gu family. Yet, to her surprise, he still seemed oblivious to the truth.

Gu Dai had no intention of enlightening Song Ling, and as she faced his probing questions, her voice carried an air of finality, “After all, Shi Nuan and Miss Gu get along well and have similar dislikes, such as detesting playboys. Since I have this experience, they inevitably want to vent. Gradually, we became familiar with each other.”

Song Ling’s expression changed, as his face was dark as coal.

His fists clenched tightly, his eyes fixed on Gu Dai with a ferocious intensity. Gritting his teeth, he seethed, “Gu Dai, you are truly something. How could 1 have in the past…”

Suddenly, his voice was cut short by the sight of flames dancing ahead of them. The unexpected fire caught his attention, leaving him staring at the source of the light..
