Chapter 816: You Will Regret This (2)
As Gu Yu lost years of his memories, he still felt like the past few years did not happen. Thus, he dressed like how he used to, few years back. He was no longer in the usual suit, but dressed more casually in a hoodie sweater top and a pair of casual pant with white stripes on the side. He looked youthful in casual.
He went over and stood beside Xu Weilai with his hands in his pockets, but did not look at her. His gaze fell on the road in front of him, and with a calm tone, said “Grandpa asked me to see you off.”
Xu Weilai never even glanced his way. “My ride is here.”
The ride she hailed stopped right in front of them. Xu Weilai went forwards and opened the door. She then got in and closed the door. Her movement was swift, and all the while, not even a glance towards Gu Yu.
Gu Yu was still standing in the same spot watching the car drove away, and disappeared into the darkness of the night. Frustration in his heart intensified, but he couldn’t understand the reason behind his frustration.
Five minutes later, Gu Yu returned to the ward.
The moment he stepped into the ward, Grandpa Gu immediately stretched out his hand towards Mrs. Lin, “Pay me, pay me. I’m correct. This rascal was rejected.”
Mrs. Lin looked at Gu Yu with disappointment. “Young Master, you disappoint me.”
Gu Yu looked at her, confused.
Grandpa Gu happily put away the ten Chinese Yuan he won and turned towards his grandson. Gu Yu had already walked towards the sofa and sat down, his attention on his phone.
Although his mindset was few years younger than his current self, his poker face was unchanged. It was still ever unreadable.
Grandpa Gu’s obsession was no longer as deep after his near-death experience. He would have thought of ways to set them up again if it was in the past. He no longer had the thoughts now.
In the past, he could tell that Lil’ Weilai still had feelings towards Gu Yu. But telling from Lil’ Weilai’s determination shown earlier, he knew all hope had failed. His heart sank along with her leaving.
Lil’ Weilai had done enough for the Gu family these years. He could not ask more of her, and he couldn’t bear to let her suffer any longer, too.
If his brat of a grandson could not come to his realization earlier, he should just accept that his grandson would age and die alone without a companion.
He couldn’t help but scold Gu Yu when these thought clouded his mind. “Little brat, an old man’s sayings are seldom untrue, you will regret this.”
Gu Yu threw his phone aside and covered his head with his hoodie. He then leaned back on the sofa with his arms crossed and closed his eyes to take rest.
He had no intention of further discussion on this topic with Grandpa Gu.
Grandpa Gu was so angry that his blood pressure soared. He snorted heavily and leaned back on the bed. He couldn’t be bothered to talk to grandson anymore.
Mrs. Lin sighed deeply as she looked at the two men in front of her.
Gu Yu stayed on for another hour before he received a Wechat message from Xu Shuai asking him out for a drink. He stared at the message for a few seconds before replying an “Okay.”
Grandpa Gu had already fallen asleep again. He nodded to Mrs. Lin before he left the ward and headed to A-Pub.

In the private room.
Xu Shuai opened his precious wine collection as a celebration for Gu Yu’s comeback.
With Gu Yu’s ability, it was only a matter of time before he could stabilize the current situation in Gu Corporation and completely uprooted the Zuo family’s influence in the Gu Corporation.
Xu Shuai poured two glasses of wine and handed one to Gu Yu. However, he saw that Gu Yu was not in the mood and noticed a trace of sadness in him. “Yu, what’s wrong? Is there still problems that couldn’t be solved in the company?”
Gu Yu raised his sight and glanced at him. His brows tightly knitted.
