Qiao Yin didn’t explain why she didn’t go to Shensong Hospital, she simply smiled lightly: “What brings Young Master Gu to me?”
“Nothing much, it’s just that my grandfather needs some medical attention that necessitates him to stay home. He asked me to invite you over to our place tomorrow. I hope you don’t mind? Don’t worry, the consultation fee will definitely satisfy you, way higher compared to what it usually is at the hospital.”
If it had been before, she wouldn’t have agreed if Gu Jing invited her to the Gu Family’s place.
But now, she was worried about not having an opportunity to visit their home. She didn’t expect Gu Jing to invite her.
Her smile became a bit brighter: “Since the old man is so sincere, it would be rude of me to refuse. So, from tomorrow onwards, I’ll go to your home for his treatment.”
Gu Jing was pleased and spoke with a hint of ambiguity: “That’s great! If you’re at our home, we’ll have plenty of opportunities to interact and strengthen our bond!”
Qiao Yin pretended to ignore his insinuation and laughed it off: “Please remind me of the norms of the Gu Family to avoid any faux pas and displeasing the old man.”
“There are no such taboos. My grandfather always appreciates you. He would only be delighted, not upset.”
“That’s good.”
“But -”
“But what?”
“My father seems to know that I’ve been pursuing you. He said that he will come and see you when you begin the treatment for my grandfather. You don’t need to feel nervous, my dad is the best, especially toward girls, he treats them very well.”
Qiao Yin was a bit surprised. Although she always wanted to meet Gu Jing’s father, she didn’t expect it to happen so soon!
She feigned uneasiness and asked: “Did you tell him you’re pursuing me? Isn’t that inappropriate?”
Seeming perplexed, Gu Jing scratched his head: “I didn’t say anything. I’m not sure how he found out. Perhaps my grandfather told him, or maybe my uncle? Although I’ve had girlfriends before and my father never obstructed me, this is the first time he’s taken the initiative to meet any of my girlfriends.”
Qiao Yin felt it unusual too.
Gu Jing had not just one, but numerous girlfriends. Some of them didn’t even count as girlfriends but were merely playthings for the young aristocracy.
Under such circumstances, there was no reason for his father to meet any of his girlfriends.
In this case, Gu Jing was not dedicated to pursuing her. Plus, she wasn’t even his girlfriend yet. There was no reason his father would want to see her.
Qiao Yin quickly analyzed the situation and got a presumption.
Maybe, Gu Jing’s father didn’t want to see her because of Gu Jing’s pursuit.
The biggest possibility is that he heard from his father or his uncle that she is Shen Tang’s daughter. That’s why he wanted to meet her.
The more Qiao Yin thought about it, the more plausible it seemed!
If that’s the case, does it mean the person related to her mother’s murder case, the probable murderer, is Gu Jing’s father!
A chill coursed through Qiao Yin’s body, and instinctively, she clenched her hands.
Seeing her turn pale, Gu Jing thought she was simply scared of meeting his father. He comforted her with a smile: “Come on, you don’t need to be so scared. I told you, my dad is an amazing person. Once you meet him, you’ll understand that there is no one better than him in the entire world!”
Qiao Yin scoffed inwardly, thinking to herself, “The “best person in the world” could potentially be the real murderer who killed my mother!”
She forced a smile on her face: “I’m not scared, just a bit nervous. I hope you won’t make fun of me for not being worldly.”
“Why would I? I’m still trying to woo you, I wouldn’t ever mock you. By the way, are you free for lunch today? Would you like to join me?”
Now that she had achieved her goal of meeting his father, she didn’t wish to spend any extra time with him. Politely rebuffing his offer, she said: “I have a really busy schedule today. I have some work during noon as well, so I won’t be able to join you for lunch.”
“What about dinner?”
“There’s an academic exchange meeting at the hospital in the evening. I have to attend that, so I wouldn’t have time.”
