The waiter didn’t respond immediately but smiled and said, “1 just fell and bled a little. I’m fine, there’s no need to go to the hospital.”
Gu Dai understood his concern right away, “Don’t worry, I’ll cover the medical bills. You don’t need to be concerned about the money.”
The waiter hastily waved his hand in refusal, “No, no, no. I can’t take your money. It was my fault for not doing my job properly and even startling you. You haven’t even asked for compensation, how can you give me money? Besides, 1 can still walk on my leg; it’s just a scratch. I’ve fallen so many times since 1 was a child and nothing bad has happened.”
Gu Dai sighed in exasperation, taking another look at the waiter’s leg, she said earnestly, “Your leg has internal damage. It might look fine now, but if not treated in time, it will become incurable in two months, and the condition will only worsen.”
The waiter, upon seeing Gu Dai’s serious demeanor, began to waver, stuttering, “Is… is that so?”
Gu Dai nodded firmly, “Yes!”
The waiter, convinced, hurriedly said, “I’ll go to the hospital right away.”
Elsewhere.
Song Yu hid in a bathroom stall, tears streaming down her face. She couldn’t understand how things had turned out this way. Not only was Gu Dai unharmed, but she had also become the one blamed.
As Song Yu’s tears flowed freely, a woman’s voice suddenly emanated from the neighboring stall.
Gu Zhi spat, “Damn you, Gu Dai! What’s so great about you? How dare you play me like this? Once my father takes back the Gu Group, I’ll lock you up in a dark room and have someone beat you every day. Then, I’ll let you wish for death but won’t let you die!”
There was a chilling laugh in Gu Zhi’s voice by the end, sending shivers down one’s spine.
But Song Yu felt no fear. Instead, a surge of excitement took over.
Ever since she found out that Gu Dai was the heiress of the Gu family, Song Yu had someone investigate the Gu family ties.
She knew the relationship between the Gu Ming family and Gu Dai wasn’t good. She wanted to use them against Gu Dai. Unexpectedly, before she even found a reason to approach them, an opportunity had presented itself right in front of her.
Song Yu wiped the tears from her face, composed herself, and stepped out of the stall. She then knocked on the door of the stall where Gu Zhi was.
When Gu Zhi heard the knock, she immediately stopped murmuring about her plan against Gu Dai. After a few seconds, she asked loudly, “Who is it?”
Song Yu replied with a smile, “Sorry to disturb you. 1 am Song Yu, the younger sister of the President of Song Corporation, Song Ling. I heard noises from this stall and wanted to check on the situation.”
Gu Zhi paused, murmuring, “Song Yu, the younger sister of the President of the Song Corporation, Song Ling…”
After a few moments, Gu Zhi quickly exited her stall, saying excitedly, “You, hello, I am…”
Before Gu Zhi could finish, Song Yu interjected, “1 know who you are. You’re Gu Zhi, the heiress of the Gu Group, right?”
Any shadow in Gu Zhi’s heart was instantly dispelled, replaced by sheer excitement. The Gu Group was a level below the Song Corporation in stature. The fact that Song Yu knew her stunned Gu Zhi, who hesitantly asked, “Miss Song, how do you know me?”
Inwardly, Song Yu coldly responded, Of course, I’ve done my research. If it weren’t for Gu Dai, a woman like Gu Zhi wouldn’t even be worthy of my acquaintance.
Though these thoughts raced through Song Yu’s mind, she maintained an excited facade, exclaiming, “You’re so accomplished, and my mother always mentions you. I low could 1 possibly not know you? I’ve wanted to meet you for so long, but I’ve been too busy. I can’t believe we’ve finally met!”
Gu Zhi grabbed Song Yu’s hand, laughing, “It’s not too late for us to get acquainted now!”
But then her demeanor changed as she added, “However, my father is no longer the president of the Gu Group, and I’m no longer its heiress.”
Song Yu knew the reasons but feigned surprise, asking, “Oh? What happened?”
Gu Zhi nodded somberly, “I have a younger sister named Gu Dai. She returned after a three-year disappearance and, without any regard for my father’s three years of dedication to the company, took over his position as chairman. She even evicted our family from the villa.”
Song Yu hadn’t expected Gu Zhi to be so manipulative, trying to use her as a pawn.
Luckily, Song Yu knew the real reasons and wouldn’t fall for it.. After all, if someone was going to be used, it would be Gu Zhi by Song Yu!
