Chapter 517: Just Shirtless
Translator: _Min_ |
Gu Daiās gaze was fixed intently on her computer screen, engaging in a digital duel with the hacker on the other side.
As minutes and seconds passed, the hacker was the first to send a message.
Hacker: Your skills are truly superior. May I ask for your esteemed name?
Gu Dai glanced at the message but did not respond.
Seeing himself ignored, the hacker became instantly enraged, āWhat does it matter if youāre skilled? Your abilities are still no match for mine!ā
Gu Dai, looking at the words āDefeatedā displayed on her computer screen, showed no change in expression. Instead, she seized the moment when the hacker let his guard down to infiltrate his computer.
In less than a minute, she obtained the answers she sought.
āIt was indeed arranged by Zhou Lin.ā
Su Ting responded, āZhou Lin.ā
Gu Dai nodded, then asked, āHave you arranged for the person involved to clear things up?ā
Su Ting replied, āItās been arranged.ā
Gu Dai felt relieved upon hearing this, her thoughts now on how to counter Zhou Lin.
Seeing Gu Daiās contemplative expression, Su Ting knew what she was thinking and softly said, āDaidai, thereās no rush to deal with Zhou Lin. Now that we have evidence against him, we might as well wait and see what else he does. Itāll be easier to catch whoever is backing him.ā
Gu Dai found this reasonable and nodded in agreement, āOkay.ā
Upon returning home, Gu Dai was called into the room by Xu Huan, āDaidai, come to my room, I have something to discuss with you.ā
Su Ting softly said, āGo ahead, Iāll also head to my room to prepare. Later, Iāll show you my martial arts skills.ā
Gu Dai: āOkay.ā
After she followed Xu Huan into the room and noticed Xu Huanās silence, a wave of concern instantly welled up inside her. Her gaze fell on Xu Huanās fractured leg, and she quickly asked, āGrandma, is there something wrong with your leg? Let me have a look.ā
Xu Huan pulled Gu Dai up from her crouching position, āDaidai, my leg is fine.ā
Since the leg was fine, there might be something else bothering her.
Thinking this, Gu Dai quickly said, āGrandma, Iāll book a full-body check-up for you at the hospital right away.ā
She held Xu Huanās hand, comforting her softly, āWith todayās advanced medical technology, your health will surely be taken care of. Besides, if the hospital canāt do it, my master surely can!ā
Xu Huan comforted, āDaidai, Iām not sick.ā
She sighed and handed her phone to Gu Dai, āDaiDai, I saw what was trending today.ā
Gu Dai glanced at it and saw it was the news about Su Tingās company.
Xu Huan continued, āDaidai, heās a good kid and would never exploit others. There might be some misunderstanding here. Please donāt let this drive a wedge between you and Su Ting.ā
Gu Dai nodded vigorously, saying, āGrandma, Su Ting and I are on very good terms.ā
Recalling the scene of Gu Dai and Su Ting laughing and talking together, Xu Huan finally relaxed, repeatedly saying, āThatās good, thatās good.ā
Gu Dai went on, āSu Tingās company indeed hasnāt harmed anyone. We are preparing our explanation, and the truth will soon be posted online.ā
Xu Huan was surprised, āReally?ā
Gu Dai nodded firmly, āOf course.ā
Gu Dai knocked on Su Tingās door and, receiving no response, puzzledly opened it and entered, āYouā¦ā
She had barely uttered a word when she saw Su Ting emerging from the bathroom, her gaze inadvertently falling on his exposed abs, leaving her momentarily speechless.
Su Ting, seeing Gu Daiās stunned look, curved the corners of his mouth into a smile, stepped closer, and softly asked, āDaidai, what were you about to say?ā
Regaining her senses after smelling his fresh scent, Gu Dai hurriedly pushed Su Ting away, stammering, āYou, keep your distance from me.ā
Su Ting looked down, feigning hurt, āOkay.ā
Gu Dai wanted to comfort Su Ting but, upon seeing his skin, instantly withdrew her gaze, āQuick, put on your clothes.ā
Su Ting obediently replied, āOkay.ā
After waiting a moment, Gu Dai asked, āHave you dressed yet?ā
Su Ting responded, āYes, I have.ā
Gu Dai cautiously opened her eyes and, seeing Su Ting was indeed dressed, finally breathed a sigh of relief, instructing, āIn the future, make sure to get dressed after bathing. What if someone else sees you?ā
Su Ting laughed, āDaidai, I was just shirtless..ā
