Chapter 564: Take Good Care of Daidai
....Translator: _Min_ |
Gu Dai knew Su Ci had no reason to lie to her, and indeed, he wasn’t one to lies. Yet, the revelation that Father Su was her grandmother’s son was something she found hard to believe.
Moreover, she couldn’t understand why Father Su would imprison her parents or harbor such hatred towards the Gu family.
Taking a deep breath, she looked at Su Ci and asked, “You and your father…”
Su Ci lowered his gaze and spoke softly, “Three years ago, when I fell into the sea, it was he who saved me. However, there’s no affection between us. To put it accurately, I’m merely a p.a.w.n in his hands, a tool meant to be used against you.”
After saying this, he quickly looked up at Gu Dai, a.s.suring her again, “Although he instructed me to do so, I have always refused and never harmed you.”
Gu Dai nodded slightly, “I know. And if you had hurt me, I would have definitely sensed it.”
Thinking of the tone Father Su used when speaking to him, she sighed lightly.
Even without knowing their past interactions, she could imagine that it must have been particularly challenging.
Su Ci spoke in a low voice, “My father doesn’t consider me important, so he never shares his plans with me. I don’t know what he intends to do next.”
He paused for a few seconds, blaming himself, “I’m sorry, Daidai. It’s my fault for being so useless, unable to offer you any help.”
Gu Dai shook her head, “It’s because your father is cunning. You can’t blame yourself.”
Hearing Su Ci’s words, Su Ting’s brows furrowed, and he rhythmically tapped his fingers on the table. After a few seconds, he stopped and looked at Gu Dai, expressing his concern, “Daidai, could Father Su foresee our plan to lure him to the island and instead target the Gu family?”
Su Ci’s expression changed, “Knowing my father, he’s very likely to do so.”
Gu Dai quickly took out her phone to call Meng Si, but after several attempts, he didn’t answer, increasing her anxiety.
Su Ting tried to calm her, “Daidai, don’t panic. Big brother Meng might be busy with work, which is why he’s not answering. I’ll investigate the situation in the Capital.”
Gu Dai nodded and softly agreed, “Okay.”
Although Su Ting appeared calm on the surface, he was also in a state of panic inside, quickly sending messages to his contacts in the Capital to check on the Gu family’s situation.
Gu Dai took several deep breaths, trying to calm herself, but to no avail, “I need to return to the country!”
Su Ting understood Gu Dai’s urgency and did not stop her, softly responding, “Okay.”
With Su Ting’s support, Gu Dai’s nervousness eased slightly. At that moment, her phone rang—it was Meng Si calling.
She quickly answered, anxiously asking, “Big Brother, how’s everything there? Has anything happened?”
Meng Si rea.s.sured her, “Daidai, don’t worry. Everything is fine here, nothing has happened.”
After a moment of silence, Gu Dai asked again, “Big brother, are you sure no one has caused trouble for you?”
Meng Si sighed, “I knew I couldn’t hide anything from you. Grandmother wanted me to keep it from you.”
He continued, “After you left, I moved our location along with auntie and uncle. However, we were attacked during the move. Fortunately, we acted swiftly and weren’t injured.”
Gu Dai breathed a sigh of relief, “I’m glad you’re all safe.”
Meng Si then cautioned her, “Daidai, the person behind this is ruthless. Be very careful.”
After saying this, he became even more worried, “I’ll come to you. That way, the person behind this won’t be able to hurt you, and we can have peace of mind.”
Gu Dai immediately objected, “No need, I can take care of myself. Plus, if you leave the Capital, grandmother and our parents might be in danger. You mustn’t go.”
Meng Si was in a dilemma, “But you…”
Su Ting stepped closer to Gu Dai, whispering, “Let me speak to big brother.”
Gu Dai unconsciously agreed, “Okay.”
Meng Si, hearing the voice on the other end, asked, “Is that Su Ting?”
“Yes, it’s me,” Su Ting said, suppressing his nervousness.
After introducing himself, he a.s.sured, “Big Brother, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Daidai and ensure she stays safe.”
Meng Si, having only heard about Su Ting from his younger siblings, felt an instinctive trust in his promise upon hearing these words..
