Gu Xiuyu was nowhere to be found?
Upon hearing this news, Di Mingjue couldn't help but feel delighted.
"That's great, he won't bother you anymore."
Di Mingjue blurted out his inner thoughts, leaving Ye Ziyu unsure how to respond.
This was probably the difference between men and women. She was curious why Gu Xiuyu had suddenly disappeared, and now that Old Master Gu was ill, why didn't he return? Di Mingjue, however, was focused on matters of romantic relationships.
She considered saying something but decided against it. Too much talk might only make him more defensive and resentful of Gu Xiuyu.
"Let's go back to the living room!" Ye Ziyu turned and said to the children.
Night had fallen, and a gentle breeze had picked up, feeling a bit cool against the skin.
Ye Ziyu watched the smile that remained on Di Mingjue's lips, feeling quite helpless.
He was like someone who had been pickled in a vinegar jar for days on end, showing jealousy at the slightest provocation. If he were a woman, wouldn't she constantly be arguing?
Sensing her gaze, Di Mingjue turned to look at Ye Ziyu and possessively pulled her slender waist towards him.
The children, seeing this, covered their mouths and giggled.
Parents' affection for each other is passed on to their children, bringing them happiness. In this subtle way, they learn from their parents how to love others.
This was also why the three children still wanted to be friends with Xingxing even after being rejected by her repeatedly, and why Ye Ziyu worried about Xingxing.
...
For several consecutive days, Ye Ziyu had to visit Gu Corporation due to project matters. From the Gu Corporation employees, she also learned about Old Master Gu's daily condition. Di Mingjue, knowing that Gu Xiuyu was not at Gu Corporation, was no longer worried, but he still called Ye Ziyu every now and then to check on her.
As usual, Ye Ziyu arrived at Gu Corporation with documents from Ye Corporation. While waiting for the elevator, she heard a crash and cries for help amidst the commotion.
The elevator doors opened before her, but Ye Ziyu quickly ran towards the source of the sound.
"Old Master Gu!" Ye Ziyu exclaimed, seeing the elderly Master Gu lying on the ground, unconscious.
His assistant was anxiously calling for an ambulance.
Ye Ziyu waved her hands, dispersing the surrounding staff, "Everyone, please step back and keep the air flowing."
Everyone cooperatively retreated.
Seeing Gu Master Gu's assistant finish the call, Ye Ziyu immediately asked, "How long will the doctor take?"
"At least fifteen minutes," the assistant estimated.
The distance from the hospital to the company was not short, and fifteen minutes was without any traffic congestion.
Ye Ziyu looked at Old Master Gu's condition; she had to take a risk.
"Does the company have a medical kit?"
"Yes."
The receptionist from the crowd responded.
Retrieving it from a cabinet drawer at the reception desk, Ye Ziyu only picked out a stethoscope from within.
She first took Old Master Gu's pulse, gaining a general understanding of his condition before proceeding to the next step.
Those nearby watched her actions, so tense they dared not even breathe loudly.
In truth, Ye Ziyu could not revive Old Master Gu from his coma; her actions were merely preparations for the doctor's arrival.
"Miss Ye, how is Old CEO Gu's condition?" the assistant asked nervously.
"Preliminary diagnosis is cerebral hemorrhage. The situation is not good. You need to call Gu Xiuyu now and tell him to return as soon as possible," Ye Ziyu instructed.
Gu Xiuyu's phone had been switched off all along. The assistant had tried calling many times, and Old Master Gu had also sent people to search for him privately, but the results were not satisfactory.
Desperate, the assistant had no other choice but to try calling again.
"It's not connecting?" Ye Ziyu asked.
The assistant nodded.
As Ye Ziyu prepared to try using her own phone, the ambulance arrived. Compared to finding Gu Xiuyu, Old Master Gu was more important at the moment.
She accompanied the medical personnel and Old Master Gu's assistant into the ambulance, heading to the hospital.
