Back Then, I Adored You Chapter 512 Waiting for a Person Whose Return Date Was Unknown 2

Xiaowang was so shocked that his phone almost slipped from his trembling fingers.

Gu Yusheng broke the silence by mumbling, “What did you say just now?”

Suspecting Gu Yusheng had drunk too much, Xiaowang quickly repeated himself. “Secretary Qin is now entertaining Old Master Gu and Miss Liang.”

Afraid of his reaction, Xiaowang added, “Miss Liang insisted. She said she had a good chat with Secretary Qin.”

“Secretary Qin?” Gu Yusheng asked, as if he didn’t know who she was. Without waiting for an answer, he said, “Oh, I see,” and ended the call.

……

Qin Zhi’ai sometimes believed that Liang Doukou and Jiang Qianqian had to be cousins because of how similarly they dealt with others.

She had anticipated that Old Master Gu and Liang Doukou would not be easy to entertain, but she had never imagined she’d be tested so soon.

Because the cups of tea and coffee were too hot to carry by hand, Qin Zhi’ai used a tray to take them to Gu Yusheng’s office.

Qin Zhi’ai politely knocked on the door and waited until she heard Liang Doukou sweetly say, “Please, come in.”

She carefully entered and approached Old Master Gu and Liang Doukou with the tray.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

Lounging elegantly on the sofa, Liang Doukou had been reading a magazine while occasionally chatting with Old Master Gu. When Qin Zhi’ai approached the coffee table in front of them, Liang Doukou suddenly raised her leg and nonchalantly stretched it toward Qin Zhi’ai’s feet.

The floor of Gu Yusheng’s office was shiny and slippery, and wearing two-inch heels Qin Zhi’ai was being particularly cautious, but before she realized what had happened, she felt her foot hit something and then her entire body start to fall forward.

She realized immediately that Liang Doukou had intentionally tried to trip her.

With Old Master Gu sitting directly in front of her, and his face in danger of being splashed with the hot drinks, Qin Zhi’ai was appalled that Liang Doukou would try to cause her problems by jeopardizing Old Master Gu’s safety.

This move was even more shocking because Old Master Gu genuinely loved Liang Doukou like a daughter, and he was the most important man in Gu Yusheng’s life.

The instant that Qin Zhi’ai was about to completely lose her balance, she swiftly drew the tray backward.

As she did, the two cups rocked forward on the tray and flipped over onto the table, splashing all over Qin Zhi’ai as they crashed.

Qin Zhi’ai was relieved she had managed to prevent Old Master Gu from being hurt, but now she was covered with hot tea and coffee.

A burning sensation quickly flared on her wrist, and she collapsed on the table.
