Xu Weilai looked down at her phone and realised that it was a call from her boss.

Pursing her lips lightly, she swiped across the screen and held her phone up to her ear before she greeted, “Hello.”

“Weilai, have you arrived home?” Zuo An asked in a slow, gentle voice.

“Yes.”

“Is CEO Gu alright? He isn’t drunk, is he?” Zuo An enquired with a hint of concern in his voice.

If Zuo An had the intention to deceive someone, Xu Weilai felt certain that it would be quite impossible to guard against him for he was so gentle that he seemed almost harmless.

“He’s fine. He told me to leave after I sent him back to his apartment,” Xu Weilai noted calmly.

Although Xu Weilai expected Zuo Anto press on, he merely replied, “Good. It’s been hard on you tonight. Rest early then. Good night.”

“Oh. Good night…”

After hanging up the call, Xu Weilai frowned and her heart was once again filled with doubts.

She couldn’t help but wonder why Zuo An would take everything she said for what it was if his intention was to check on Gu Yu’s condition.

But ultimately, Xu Weilai decided not to bother about Zuo An’s motives for the time being, for he had masked his intentions too well and Xu Weilai knew that she had to conceal her true plans from him so that she could plan her own crafty escape.

After Zuo An’s call, Xu Weilai’s thoughts returned to Gu Yu once more. But before she could even decide if she should check on him, Xu Shuai had dropped her a text.

She quickly tapped on the message and saw three simple words, “He’s fine now.”

Xu Shuai was apparently reluctant to divulge more about Gu Yu.

Xu Weilai stared at those three words so hard that she nearly became cross-eyed. Eventually, she typed out a short sentence quickly and gritted her teeth before she finally sent it out.

“Is Gu Yu suffering from some serious illness?” she wrote.

However, she received no response, for her message was akin to a pebble that was tossed into the ocean and was soon drowned out.

Xu Weilai did not know when she fell asleep but by the time she opened her eyes, the information stored in the phone that she was still holding in her hands was already completely erased.

If Gu Yu’s deathly pale face hadn’t left such a strong impression in her last night, she would have thought that everything was just a figment of her dream.

Xu Weilai knew that she could only find out the truth for herself since Gu Yu and Xu Shuai refused to let divulge anything to her.

…

“Drastic weight loss, coughing, coughing blood, cold sweat, pale complexion…” Xu Weilai listed.

She then began to muse over these keywords as she sat down at her desk. However, as there were too many symptoms and she was utterly lost as to which to look into first, she decided to consult a professional doctor.

Xu Weilai was so engrossed in her thoughts that she did not even realise someone approaching her until the other party’s voice boomed right beside her ear, “A penny for your thoughts?”

“I want to find a doctor…”

Xu Weilai answered subconsciously and when she looked up, saw Zuo An standing before her. Stunned, she instantly held her tongue and changed the subject quickly. “Boss, why are you here? Do you need something from me?” she asked.

Noticing how quick she was to switch topics, Zuo An did not continue to probe further and merely smiled before he nodded and replied, “There’s a document that I need to see. Could you go to the Archives and find it for me?”

“Sure, I’ll do it right away.”

Xu Weilai nodded her head in acknowledgement, rose to her feet and left.

Based on the requirements that Zuo An had shared, Xu Weilai eventually found the document that he needed. However, by the time she came out of the Archives, it was already past working hours and almost everyone had left. After Xu Weilai left the document on Zuo An’s desk, she returned to her table, grabbed her bag, and punched out.

She then entered the elevator and pressed the button for the first floor. But just when the elevator door was about to close, it suddenly opened and a familiar figure walked in.
