Gu Sisi turned around, putting her index finger to her lips and making a "shh" gesture at Huo Cheng. Then she began to move gingerly, for fear of waking Yang Qian up.
As she approached and saw the dark circles under Yang Qian's eyes, Gu Sisi felt a pang of heartache. Suddenly, she thought she had been too willful back then. She just left a note and ran away, leaving her son to Yang Qian.
This little girl, Yang Qian, must have stayed up for the past one or two days to help her take care of the baby. She really felt sorry for her. Gu Sisi reached out to tuck the loose strands of hair behind Yang Qian's ear.
Yang Qian smacked her lips and continued sleeping.
She's really like a little pig. Gu Sisi suddenly had an urge to pinch Yang Qian's face. But she retracted her hand. She'd better not wake her up. Let her have a good sleep.
Just as Gu Sisi was about to take off her coat and drape it over Yang Qian, Huo Cheng suddenly held her hand and passed her a blanket. Gu Sisi understood and gave Huo Cheng a grateful smile. Then she covered Yang Qian with the blanket.
"Have a good sleep. It's all right now."
Gu Sisi tiptoed out of the baby's room.
After that, Gu Sisi started to catch up on the work she had left behind. When she was working with Gu Chenfei, in the first two days, they both worked very hard and seriously. But later, as more things happened, neither of them had touched the work anymore.
Actually, Gu Sisi could understand. This was just one of Gu Chenfei's many jobs. It might be more appropriate to say it was her hobby. She was willing to spend so much time on it, discussing and researching with Gu Sisi, and giving her many constructive suggestions. Gu Sisi was really grateful for that.
But for Gu Sisi, it was different. She wanted to do this thing well, so she needed to work harder.
Huo Cheng also started to throw himself into work. Now both Gu Sisi and Huo Cheng felt that they should work harder to improve themselves, not to gain the recognition of the Huo family, but to have more confidence when they took back their baby.
Now Huo Yan had been sent to receive the punishment for stealing the Huo family's treasures. This punishment was much more severe than the one Huo Cheng received for violating the family rules last time. This time, the punishment was almost life - threatening for Huo Yan.
Even if she came back, Huo Cheng would make sure she had nothing and paid the price.
Huo Cheng had investigated and found that the hallucinogenic drug in Gu Sisi's body was highly related to Huo Yan. As soon as he knew this, he sent people to investigate. The investigation was very fast. It turned out that there was an insider in the Huo family. The person was from the kitchen, but not Sister Hu's son, but a seemingly ordinary maid in the Huo family.
This maid was in charge of washing the dishes every day. After washing, she would wipe them carefully. Sister Hu even praised her for being responsible. But Sister Hu didn't expect that the problem just lay in this wiping.
This smart maid soaked the rag in water with a high - concentration hallucinogenic drug. After wiping the dishes, the drug was left on them.
Because of her "responsibility", Sister Hu specially assigned her to arrange Gu Sisi's tableware. In this way, the hallucinogenic drug entered Gu Sisi's body through the food on those problematic tableware.
If they hadn't investigated, the Huo family would never have known that this person, who usually seemed so honest and unlikely to do such things, had actually done this secretly. It was really shocking.
When she knew the truth, Sister Hu beat her chest and stamped her feet. "I almost arranged for her to take care of the young master because she was so careful and capable. She always told me that she wanted to take care of the young master and that she liked children. Now it seems that she had ulterior motives."
Many people were also talking about it, mostly expressing disbelief.
But since Huo Cheng had found out, he would never tolerate it. He had already driven that person out of the Huo family. He thought there was no need to keep someone who was disloyal.
The crisis for Huo Cheng was over. Under his management, the company, which had been maliciously attacked by Huo Yan's company before, now that Huo Yan was away, Huo Cheng had successfully turned the tables.
Now it was Huo Yan's company that was in crisis. Huo Yan was busy with the dangerous mission. Even if she survived, her company would probably be on the verge of collapse by then.
Compared with Huo Yan, Huo Cheng never thought he was cruel. Compared with what Huo Yan had done to his wife and child, he thought he was still kind.
Huo Yan's fate had deterred some people with bad intentions, like Huo An. Originally, he was in the same camp as Huo Yan, but now that something happened to Huo Yan, he didn't even dare to say a word, for fear of getting himself involved.
Huo An was a coward. If it weren't for Huo Yan's support, he probably wouldn't dare to do anything. He was also inferior to Huo Cheng in terms of ability. Huo Cheng hardly took him seriously.
Without Huo Yan, Huo An couldn't make any big waves. Huo Cheng knew his elder brother very well.
Now there were two fewer obstacles for Huo Cheng to take back his son. It seemed much easier, but Mr. and Mrs. Huo still refused to give the child back to Huo Cheng and Gu Sisi.
Huo Cheng thought he still needed to work hard. But with Huo Yan and Huo An out of the way, it would be much easier. He just needed to gain the recognition of Mr. and Mrs. Huo.
He hoped that day would come soon. Huo Cheng closed his eyes.
Gu Sisi was also working hard with him. These days, Gu Sisi had been busy organizing things related to the script. Because of her concentration, the work was progressing quickly. Whenever she had any questions, she would call Gu Chenfei.
On the phone, Gu Chenfei's voice sounded even colder. When Gu Sisi first heard it, she was a little scared and almost gave up. But thinking of Gu Chenfei's pretended coldness and looking at the documents on the table, she immediately gained confidence.
Well, familiarity breeds comfort. Soon, whenever Gu Sisi encountered a problem, she would call Gu Chenfei. If Gu Chenfei's tone was cold, Gu Sisi would lower and soften her voice and coax her patiently, just like coaxing a child. In this way, Gu Chenfei would be willing to talk more.
It was also very strange that Gu Chenfei never missed Gu Sisi's calls and never hung up on her. It was as if Gu Chenfei always had time whenever Gu Sisi called.
