Chapter 348: Amusement Park

Translator: _Min_ |

Li Ying’s family was not wealthy, incapable of producing five million collectively, let alone giving it to her directly.

Li Ying herself knew how absurd her statement was, but having said it, she stubbornly persisted, “That’s the truth. Whether you believe it or not, there’s nothing I can do.”

Gu Dai watched Li Ying with a light chuckle, which quickly faded into a cold expression, “We can find out, and I recall you came to the capital alone.”

Li Ying, sensing a threat in Gu Dai’s words, sat down abruptly on the floor, overwhelmed with fear.

At that moment, she deeply regretted her actions. If only she had known earlier that this person was the Chairwoman of Gu Group, she would never have dared to provoke her or accept the money.

She blamed Gu Ming for her plight. If he had revealed Gu Dai’s identity, she wouldn’t be in this situation now.

After a long stare, Gu Dai withdrew her gaze and said leisurely, “I’ll let you go this time. You may leave.”

Upon hearing Gu Dai’s words, Li Ying scrambled out of the office in a panic.

Meng Zhi watched Li Ying’s retreating figure, puzzled, “Daidai, Li Ying is obviously lying. Why let her go?”

Gu Dai explained, “Since we can’t get anything out of her now, we’ll let her go temporarily. Once she lets her guard down, we can gather more evidence.”

Meng Zhi nodded in understanding.

Gu Dai continued with a smile, “Besides, I have more important things to do right now.”

Meng Zhi, curious, asked, “Like what?”

Gu Dai glanced at the time and smiled, “It’s time to take Yinyin to the amusement park.”

Gu Yin’s head and body injuries had mostly healed, and she could now go out.

Being a person who keeps her promises, Gu Dai, once recovered, immediately planned an outing with Gu Yin.

Standing in the amusement park, Gu Yin looked around in wonder and exclaimed, “So this is what an amusement park looks like!”

She hugged Gu Dai’s leg, joyfully saying, “I’ve never been to an amusement park before. Thank you, cousin, for bringing me!”

Gu Dai crouched down and embraced Gu Yin, softly replying, “You’re welcome. Whenever I have time, I’ll bring you out to play.”

Gu Dai asked, “What would you like to play, Yinyin?”

After looking around, Gu Yin made her choice, “Cousin, can we go on the merry-go-round first?”

Gu Dai agreed, “Of course.”

The Zhou family was all busy, except for Zhou Ci, the odd one out.

Thus, the task of taking care of the children fell to him.

Zhou Le skipped ahead, occasionally looking back to urge Zhou Ci, “Cousin, you’re only in your twenties. Why are you walking so slowly? People might think you’re in your seventies or eighties.”

Zhou Ci quickened his pace and lightly tapped Zhou Le, grumbling, “Shut up. I planned to play games all day at home. I don’t understand why you insisted on coming to the amusement park!”

Zhou Ci couldn’t fathom what was so fun about an amusement park.

Glancing around, his gaze fell upon Gu Dai on the merry-go-round, and he stood frozen in place.

Zhou Le remarked, “Okay, okay, I’ve realized there’s nothing fun here. Let’s go back and play games.”

As Zhou Le was about to head home, someone suddenly grabbed his collar.

In disbelief, he looked up at Zhou Ci and angrily retorted, “Let go of me! Just because you’re older doesn’t mean you can bully me!”

Zhou Ci, holding onto Zhou Le, walked towards the amusement park, saying, “I suddenly feel the amusement park is quite fun. Let’s go, brother will take you on the merry-go-round.”

Zhou Le protested, “I want to go home now, and I don’t want to ride the merry-go-round!”

Despite Zhou Le’s resistance, Zhou Ci had already brought him to the merry-go-round queue.

Zhou Ci’s attention was completely on Gu Dai. He instinctively took out his phone, snapped a photo, and posted it on his social network.

Zhou Le, observing his cousin’s actions, slowly fell into contemplation, feeling as if he had stumbled upon something significant.

After the merry-go-round ride, Gu Dai escorted Gu Yin off the ride. Upon seeing Zhou Ci, she paused for a second, then nodded in greeting before attempting to leave.

Zhou Ci handed the tickets to Zhou Le and quickly followed Gu Dai.

He smiled and said, “What a coincidence to meet you here.”

Gu Dai nodded, puzzled, “What are you doing here?”
