“Sheng… Sheng Sheng…”
It took Gu Yueming five or six seconds to finally come to her senses. She quickly pressed the "open door" button and immediately rushed out towards the door.
At the same time, he took out his phone and made a call: "Hey, Zheng, come back quickly, Sheng Sheng is here!"
He hung up the phone after saying just one sentence and rushed out like lightning.
Qin's Building.
The Qin Group's executives were in a meeting when a slight vibration suddenly occurred.
Everyone looked around, wondering who was so bold as to not mute the meeting. Then they saw Qin Zheng, who was at the very top, suddenly stand up.
Without saying a word or even glancing at anyone present, he kicked aside the chair behind him and strode out.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Finally, a tall man stepped forward.
Qin Hao coughed lightly to draw everyone's attention before saying, "A-Zheng must have something urgent to do. How about we end the meeting here for today and continue when A-Zheng returns?"
Although Qin Zheng is the CEO of Qin's Group, everyone present was a senior executive of the company. It's impossible for them not to be dissatisfied with Qin Zheng's behavior of leaving without saying a word.
But everyone's gone, what else could they do but leave one by one?
Qin Hao was the last to leave.
He glanced at the chair that Qin Zheng had kicked aside, pondered for a moment, and finally picked up his phone and made a call.
"Meng Ling, go and take a look over at the main house."
"I'm not sure either, you should go and check first."
"Then call Mom over too. If they ask, just say Mom wants to come."
Qin Hao hung up the phone and turned to leave the conference room.

When Gu Yueming saw Qin Sheng, Qin Sheng had just entered the Qin family manor and was sending messages as she walked in.
Hearing the noise, Qin Sheng looked up.
She saw a slender figure rushing towards her like a gust of wind, only stopping abruptly just before reaching her.
Gu Yueming was so nervous she didn't know what to do with her hands and feet: "Sheng... um... Qin Sheng... you... why are you here?"
She realized her words were inappropriate and quickly waved her hand, saying, "That's not what I meant!"
"I mean... I mean... welcome to our home..."
"No, no..."
No matter what she said, it was wrong. Gu Yueming was so angry that she wanted to beat herself to death.
Looking at the face in front of her that resembled her own, Qin Sheng felt a strange sensation. She pursed her lips and asked, "Shall we go inside and talk?"
"Yes, yes, let's go inside, let's go inside."
He reached out to take Qin Sheng's hand, but then abruptly pulled it back halfway.
Qin Sheng saw this and pursed her lips even tighter.
The two quickly entered the house. Gu Yueming dismissed the maid who had just come down from upstairs after cleaning, and personally heated up some milk and placed it in front of Qin Sheng: "It's cold, have some milk first."
Qin Sheng took it.
She had only intended to have a quick sip, but when she looked up, she met Gu Yueming's bright eyes. Seeing her looking over, she immediately asked, "Is it good?"
Qin Sheng: "...It's alright."
Gu Yueming immediately beamed with joy: "If you like it, drink more."
Qin Sheng: "..."
She picked up the cup she was about to put down and continued drinking.
Gu Yueming's eyes lit up even more.
Yes, Sheng Sheng likes to drink milk, I've noted that down.
After finally finishing his drink, Qin Sheng was about to speak when another chocolate was handed to him.
"Have some chocolate, it's very sweet," Gu Yueming said.
Qin Sheng paused for a moment, then took it.
Then another one, and then another.
Just as Gu Yueming picked up the fourth chocolate and was about to hand it over, Qin Sheng quickly grabbed one and handed it to her, saying, "You have one too."
Gu Yueming was stunned for a moment, then her eyes welled up with tears.
She pushed the whole plate of chocolates in front of Qin Sheng and said in a hoarse voice, "Eat as much as you like, it's all yours."
Qin Sheng: "..."
I feel like something's gone off track.
After Qin Sheng ate five chocolates in a row, he drank a glass of milk, and Gu Yueming finally stopped feeding him, satisfied.
She looked at the girl in front of her, liking her more and more, and feeling more and more gratified. She smiled and said, "Is Qin Sheng here to challenge me to a duel? I'm ready, anytime is fine."
Qin Sheng: ...She's completely forgotten about that.
Okay then.
Qin Sheng stood up and followed Gu Yueming toward the Qin family's underground gym. However, just as they reached the stairwell, they heard footsteps approaching.
The two of them stopped walking at the same time.
Gu Yueming seemed to realize something, and her expression changed slightly. She glanced at Qin Sheng nervously and lowered her voice, saying, "Qin Sheng, you can go down first. I'll be right back."
Qin Sheng glanced at her but didn't move.
Gu Yueming felt a surge of anxiety. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of three figures appearing at the door. She instinctively shifted her feet, shielding Qin Sheng behind her.
This is what Hu Mengling saw when she helped Wang Shujun in.
Her gaze darkened, and she thought to herself that there was definitely something fishy going on in the second brother's family, but she put on a reproachful smile: "Second sister-in-law, why are you standing there? Didn't you see that Mom is here? Don't you know to come and help her up?"
Gu Yueming's heart tightened, but she didn't move.
"Mom, why did you come all of a sudden? Look at me," she tugged at her pajamas and smiled sheepishly, "I wasn't prepared at all."
Wang Shujun waved her hand with a smile: "We're all family, it's no big deal. Xiaoming, don't stand there, come and sit down."
"I haven't seen you in a while, so I came over to keep Mom company and talk to her."
Seeing a glimpse of a sleeve, Wang Shujun paused, then asked in confusion, "Is there a guest here?"
Gu Yueming's expression stiffened, but she couldn't deny it any longer. She gritted her teeth, stepped Qin Sheng out from behind her, and said with a smile, "She's Yan Yan's classmate, named Qin Sheng. I met her at No. 1 Middle School last time, and I felt that I had a connection with this girl, so I invited her to come to my house to play."
Wang Shujun suddenly realized, then showed a disapproving expression: "Since she's Yan Yan's classmate, you should have told Yan Yan to come and keep her company. Why did you bring her here directly?"
Qin Yanshu's expression changed the moment she saw Qin Sheng, but she only came back to her senses when Wang Shujun mentioned her.
She smiled and said, "Grandma is right. Why didn't Second Aunt tell me? I didn't even know Qin Sheng was coming to our house."
As he spoke, he walked towards the two of them and reached out to take Qin Sheng's hand.
Almost instinctively, Gu Yueming stepped forward and stood between Qin Yanshu and Qin Sheng.
Qin Yanshu paused, a puzzled look on her face: "What is Second Aunt doing?"
Gu Yueming glanced back at Qin Sheng first, and seeing that she didn't seem unhappy, she breathed a slight sigh of relief before turning her gaze back.
"It's alright, it's just that Qin Sheng is timid, don't scare her," Gu Yueming said, her words full of protectiveness.
Qin Yanshu's heart sank.
Gu Yueming had already pulled Qin Sheng toward the sofa.
