Chapter 65 Today is Teacher Gu and Student Lu's Day
The lights in the other departments of Gu's Group had already been turned off, except for the lights in the technical department, where everyone was still on. They were either gathered in twos and threes eating sunflower seeds and watching TV series, or huddled in their own seats watching short videos, reading novels, sending messages, and making phone calls.
Lu Fengqing was working diligently, her eyes glued to the screen, her hands rapidly typing on the keyboard.
At first glance, everyone seems to be living their own lives, creating a harmonious and beautiful scene.
A female colleague, who was texting her boyfriend on her phone, noticed that her coffee was gone. Just as she was about to go to the water room to make herself a new cup, she looked up and saw a tall figure appear at the entrance of the technical department. Her eyes widened and she froze.
The handsome face that he used to secretly lick and fawn over in private has now turned into a deadly mask.
After a while, the female colleague finally found her voice, "M-Mr. Gu."
Her voice wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the quiet surroundings.
The previously harmonious and pleasant technical department suddenly fell silent.
The next second, the group of people who had been huddled together eating sunflower seeds and watching TV scattered like startled birds.
Gu Suixing's face was icy cold. "Where is Wei Gao?"
“Our boss…” The female colleague pointed in the direction of the office, her heart filled with tears, “I’ll go call him.”
They were caught red-handed by the big boss while trying to slack off during overtime, and the rest of the tech department didn't dare to breathe too loudly.
Wei Gao rushed out of the office, his face not looking too good. "Young Master Gu."
Gu Suixing: "Is this the attitude of the technical department towards working overtime?"
Wei Gao glanced at the others, resignedly taking responsibility, "It's my fault for not managing things properly."
Gu Suixing's attitude did not soften. "Deduct this month's bonus and submit a self-criticism of no less than a thousand words to my office before you leave work tomorrow at noon."
A thousand-word self-criticism? Wei Gao looked miserable. "Yes."
Gu Suixing: "Everyone else who has nothing to do, go home immediately."
Someone shouted, "Yes!"
Gu Suixing frowned. "Keep your voice down."
The man paused, then weakly repeated, "Yes."
They were so focused on being nervous and guilty that they didn't notice until now that their big boss was holding a child in his arms.
She looked to be about four or five years old, her little face buried in the man's neck, making it impossible to see her features.
I haven't heard that the big boss got married and had a child. Could it be a relative's child?
The group murmured amongst themselves, quickly packed their things, and left one after another.
Wei Gao walked last.
Gu Suixing asked, "Where is she?"
Wei Gaocai suddenly remembered that there was an extra person in his department today. He thought to himself, "No wonder Xiao Gu always runs down suddenly." He pointed to a certain spot and said, "Over there."
Gu Suixing walked over there, saying, "You should go home too."
Wei Gao responded and went to turn off the lights in the other areas before leaving.
Although the noise was not loud, it was late at night and anyone with ears should have noticed it.
Unfortunately, Lu Fengqing's ears were plugged.
With Bluetooth earphones plugged in, she ignored everything around her, her eyes glued to the computer screen in front of her.
Gu Suixing walked to her side, raised his hand, took off one of the earrings, and put it on.
A strange, mechanical female voice entered her ears: "She ran, he chased, she couldn't escape even if she had wings!" Gu Beichen gripped Su Ying's neck tightly, gritting his teeth as he said, "Woman, you are mine in life and in death, you will never escape my grasp." Su Ying cried out, "No, don't touch me there..."
Lu Fengqing raised her hand to touch her empty right ear, tilted her head back, and met a pair of deep, dark eyes.
The mechanical female voice in the earphones continued relentlessly: "Gu Beichen sneered, 'Whether I want it or not is up to me. Woman, I'm very powerful, so bear with it!'"
"..."
Lu Fengqing wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.
She squeezed her eyes shut, trying her best to suppress the embarrassment in her heart, turned on her phone, and tapped pause.
The colorful reading voices finally disappeared.
Lu Fengqing casually turned off the computer, picked up her bag, and stood up. "Let's go."
Gu Suixing did not move.
The sleeping little one suddenly let out a soft moan, as if he was about to wake up.
"Rui Rui, be good and keep sleeping." Lu Fengqing gently patted Rui Rui's back, watching Rui Rui fall asleep again, and reached out to take the child from Gu Suixing's arms.
Gu Suixing stepped aside to avoid her, "You're so busy you forget to eat and sleep, do you even remember you have a child to take care of?"
Lu Fengqing put her hand down and pouted, "I haven't forgotten. Sui Sui texted me saying you had Assistant Fang pick up Rui Rui."
As for why I stayed in the technical department so late, it was because I was really too busy to remember the time.
Gu Suixing asked her to come down to the technical department to do this, which clearly showed that he trusted her abilities, and she didn't want to embarrass him.
She's never been this serious when she's getting paid to do her job.
Gu Suixing's expression softened slightly. "Let's go back."
It's still back in the Milky Way.
Before going to bed after washing up, Gu Suixing suddenly asked, "Is there something you're hiding from me?"
Lu Fengqing's heart skipped a beat. "Why are you suddenly asking that?"
Gu Suixing: "It seems like it is."
"..." Lu Fengqing glared at him, "And you, are you hiding anything from me?"
Gu Suixing leaned against the headboard, composed and relaxed. "No."
Lu Fengqing didn't believe it.
Gu Suixing: "Ask away."
Lu Fengqing didn't want to ask.
Gu Suixing: "Tell me without asking."
Lu Fengqing met his gaze and knew that he wouldn't let it go until he spoke to her tonight, so she said, "I just feel a little sad."
Gu Suixing gave Lu Fengqing a look of attentive listening, waiting for her to continue.
Lu Fengqing: "Lu Yuhan is pregnant."
Gu Suixing didn't expect that she still cared about this matter. "It's not that I feel sorry for her or that I can't bear to part with Tang Xingzhou, so are you holding a grudge against her, or do you feel wronged?"
Lu Fengqing remained silent.
There was resentment, and there was definitely resentment.
It's less about feeling wronged and more about feeling stifled.
Back then, Lu Yuhan paid someone to rape her and wanted to ruin her. She clearly had evidence, but she couldn't send Lu Yuhan to the police station to face legal punishment. She could only give Lu Yuhan a half-hearted slap and release a few photos, and in the end, she silently swallowed the loss.
That's bad enough. Just a few days ago, Lu Yuhan even called her child a bastard...
She really wanted to beat Lu Yuhan to death at that moment, but she still couldn't do it. She could disown Lu Yuhan as her sister, but Lu Yuhan was still her maternal grandfather's granddaughter and her second uncle's daughter. Her maternal grandfather and second uncle had always treated her very well and had never wronged her in any way, so she had to consider them.
"That means you feel wronged." Gu Suixing patted her head. "Take it easy."
Lu Fengqing slapped his hand away, "Is this how you comfort people?"
"Otherwise what?" Gu Suixing chuckled, "'The weather is cold and the land is broken'?"
Lu Fengqing glared at him, "You dare!"
After a while, Lu Fengqing said again, "Shouldn't you say 'I'm here for you, I'll never let you suffer again' at a time like this?"
"Read less of those ridiculous novels." Gu Suixing's voice was lazy. "Just listen to those sweet words. As long as people have weaknesses, as long as they are bound by morality and the law, they will inevitably suffer injustices. The kind of plot of revenge and vengeance only exists in novels and TV shows."
Lu Fengqing pondered these words, her attitude respectful, "Teacher Gu, please continue."
Gu Suixing paused for a moment before continuing to speak to the diligent and studious student, Lu: "Reflect on your actions carefully to avoid suffering the same loss again, and try to take things easy."
The young lady is all show and no substance; she's actually a coward. He's the one who should take revenge and vent his anger.
He couldn't guarantee she wouldn't suffer any more injustices, but he could guarantee she wouldn't suffer in vain.
"Take it easy again." Lu Fengqing gave him a light punch, then dropped the subject. "My second uncle and aunt won't let Lu Yuhan keep the child."
Gu Suixing patiently hummed in agreement, signaling her to continue.
Unable to speak the truth for the time being, Lu Fengqing could only express it in another way: "Lu Yuhan has always felt that the elders love me more. She asked if they would object if I were to get pregnant out of wedlock and want to keep the child."
Lu Fengqing lowered her head, her mood also somber. "My second uncle said no. Because I'm not his biological daughter."
Because she is not their biological daughter, they can only love and pamper her, but they cannot beat or scold her like they would their own child.
It's a bit cruel, but that's reality. She understands, but she still can't help feeling sad.
"And what about you? Do you treat your second uncle as your biological father?" Gu Suixing said indifferently. "If you don't treat him as your biological father, why should you expect him to treat you as his biological daughter?"
Lu Fengqing was speechless.
"Let's take a step back, you're as close as father and daughter. If you..."
Gu Suixing paused, raised an eyebrow, leaned closer, and whispered in her ear, his deep voice light and flirtatious: "If you were pregnant with my child, and they told you to abort it, would you listen?"
