Chapter 306: The scale must be broken

Translator: _Min_ |

After refusing Zhang Wu’s offer, Gu Dai made to leave but then paused, turning back to ask, “I’m not interested in entering the entertainment industry, but can we exchange contact information?”

Zhang Wu, initially disappointed by the rejection, was pleasantly surprised by her return and eagerly agreed, “Of course, of course!”

Exiting the plane, Song Ling saw Gu Dai exchanging contacts with a man.

Approaching her with a darkened expression, he sternly said, “You’re not allowed to add him!”

Gu Dai found Song Ling’s behavior inexplicable.

Upon recognizing Song Ling, Zhang Wu was momentarily taken aback. He had heard much about this distinguished peer from his parents and was interested in connecting. However, Song Ling’s glare seemed less than friendly.

A few minutes later, unable to bear Song Ling’s icy gaze, Zhang Wu gestured to Gu Dai that they would contact each other later and hurriedly left.

Song Ling confronted Gu Dai, “Why do you need his contact?”

Gu Dai frowned, retorting, “Are you questioning me?”

Taking a deep breath, Song Ling softened his tone, “Zhang Wu changes girlfriends like clothes, even forcing some to have abortions. And he’s not even good-looking, especially compared to me. Why add him?”

Gu Dai had added Zhang Wu because Fu Nan needed connections in the entertainment industry, and Fengle Entertainment had a good standing.

She failed to see how Zhang Wu’s personal life was relevant to her.

Song Ling, seeing that Gu Dai didn’t grasp the seriousness, felt more irritated, however his frustration could only brew internally.

As Gu Dai was about to leave, Song Ling said, “It’s inconvenient for you to be alone with a child. Let me drive you.”

Gu Dai declined, “No need, my third brother is here to pick me up,” gesturing to the approaching Meng Zhi.

Meng Zhi quickly came to their side, taking Gu Yin from Gu Dai, and said softly, “Daidai, let’s go home.”

Gu Dai nodded, “Okay.”

Song Ling reached out to stop Gu Dai, but Meng Zhi pulled her behind him, feigning surprise at seeing Song Ling, “What a coincidence, President Song. I didn’t notice you before.”

Song Ling’s face was gloomy, like the sky before a storm.

Zhao Xuan, feeling the chill emanating from Song Ling, inwardly worried for Meng Zhi.

Meng Zhi, calm and unflustered, continued to speak, “I heard that you helped my Daidai a lot in Chuan City. In this world, the act of helping others is all too rare, so upon hearing this news, I was truly grateful. I must treat you to a meal someday.”

Song Ling clenched his fists tightly, his gaze dark and piercing as he glared at Meng Zhi, teeth gritted, “Gu Dai and I were once married. I am not a stranger.”

Unable to hold back, Meng Zhi’s mouth curved into a mocking smile. If it weren’t for the inappropriate setting, he would have certainly swung his arm to strike Song Ling’s face.

He couldn’t fathom how Song Ling had the audacity to say such words!

Gu Dai, too, feared Meng Zhi might become physical and quickly reached out to hold him back.

Meng Zhi whispered reassuringly, “Don’t worry, Daidai. I know my limits.”

Relieved, Gu Dai finally exhaled.

After comforting Gu Dai, Meng Zhi turned to Song Ling, “You know you were once married, but now you’re divorced. Doesn’t that make you a stranger?”

With a dismissive glance at Song Ling, Meng Zhi took Gu Dai and left.

Song Ling, his face clouded with anger, watched until their car disappeared before he averted his gaze and swiftly departed.

Zhao Xuan, with his head bowed, even his breathing careful and guarded, hurried to keep pace with Song Ling’s steps.

Inside the car.

Meng Zhi, noticing Gu Dai’s thinner appearance, expressed his concern, “Daidai, you must have had a tough time in Chuan City these past few days. I’ve had a feast prepared. Once we’re home, you can eat and regain the weight you’ve lost.”

Gu Dai glanced in the mirror and responded helplessly, “Third Brother, I haven’t lost weight, my weight hasn’t changed.”

Meng Zhi, still insistent, retorted, “The scale must be broken.”

Gu Dai accepted Meng Zhi’s words with resignation, but the feeling of being cared for sweetened her heart..
