Hubby's Deep Love Will Never Change-Chapter 35: Is This Considered a Work Injury?_1

Upon hearing Su Qing’s words, Gu Liancheng also raised his head, frowning and asking, "What’s going on?"

"Ah, about that..." Su Bai glanced out the window, his expression somewhat troubled, "Nothing serious, Mr. Gu. I just tripped and fell while walking."

Gu Liancheng calmly set down his business tablet, his cold gaze sweeping up towards the copilot’s seat.

Sensing that something was off, Su Qing slapped Su Bai’s head, "You fool, do you think you can deceive the boss with such childish lies? Better come clean or you’ll suffer."

"Right... that’s impossible to hide, isn’t it?" Su Bai turned to look at Su Qing, then at Gu Liancheng, chuckling, "I also said it’s impossible to hide!"

"So, what’s the deal?" Gu Liancheng didn’t have much patience.

Resting one hand on the seat, Su Bai turned and said to Gu Liancheng: "Mr. Gu, this matter has to do with the lady! I was going to tell you, but she insisted on not bothering you, as you’re so busy that you don’t even have time for this..."

While speaking, Su Bai surreptitiously glanced at Gu Liancheng.

"You didn’t tell her I was here?" Indeed, Gu Liancheng narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, I was about to say it! Mr. Gu was also here, waiting at the school gate, but he didn’t enter the school! But then... the lady interrupted me, thought about it and decided against it. She even said that if you asked about the injury on my face, I should just make up an excuse."

Su Qing pursed his lips at him, raised his hand as if to slap him, and admonished, "I gave you a free hand and you just ran with it? Your excuse was too random!"

"So, what’s going on?" Gu Liancheng wouldn’t miss any detail.

"Well... something happened today."

Su Bai explained the drama between Eleven and Jin Xiangbei. Su Qing, who was listening on the side, repeatedly nodded, watching their boss’s expression.

Huh... sure enough, he couldn’t make out anything!

"...Then, these days, there have been rumors circulating in the school that are unfavorable to the lady, saying that she... is involved in compensated dating, with propaganda and her phone number plastered all over..."

At this point, they noticed that their boss’s face seemed to darken.

Compensated dating?

In Gu Liancheng’s mind, the innocent face on the magazine cover several years ago flashed before his eyes.

Years ago, she too was treated with strange gazes by people around her because of a similar incident.

"However!" Su Bai immediately followed up, "But I have promptly remedied it and made them mistakenly believe that the lady is a rich heiress, so I believe that these unfavorable rumors about the lady will self-destruct tomorrow."

"You just mentioned... Jin Xiangbei?"

"Yes! Jin Xiangbei, the eldest son of Jin Corporation, who has just recently returned from the United States."

"Look up his information."

"When should I submit it to you?"

"Tomorrow."

"...Yes, sir!"

Wow, their boss sure liked keeping them on their toes.

"Mr. Gu," Su Bai pointed at his own face and asked, "Does this count as a workplace injury?"

Without lifting his head, Gu Liancheng said nonchalantly, "Hmm, a compensation for dying in the line of duty might be more appropriate."

Su Qing knocked him on the head again: "What workplace injury!"

...

"Hey, hey, hey! There’s a twist in the story! Have you all heard about what happened yesterday?"

"We’ve heard! Apparently, that Fang Eleven is actually a rich heiress with a trillion-dollar family fortune! My god, is that true or false?"
