Gu Yusheng wasn't sure if Liang Doukou had really gone home, so he stopped by the company on the way . He brought two bottles of wine with him and pretended he was just swinging by as he rang the bell at the Liang's house .
It was already dark enough that everyone in the Liang's house seemed to be asleep . Only the young nanny, who opened the door for him, was still awake .
Frankly speaking, none of the Liangs thought Liang Doukou was really married to him . Even at this moment, none of them believed it . Except for one time, he had never visited the Liangs . That year, he had gone to greet Mr . Liang on New Year's Eve .
The young nanny was surprised to see him when she opened the door . She was in shock for a while before she asked, "Gu, Mr . Gu, why are you here?"
As Gu Yusheng thought about how to ask if Liang Doukou was there, the young nanny tilted her head and looked behind him . She asked in a surprised tone, "Didn't Miss come back with you?"
This question immediately made Gu Yusheng realize that Liang Doukou had not gone back to her family's home . He didn't enter the house after the young nanny's greeting . He only passed the wine bottles to her . "I just came from my grandpa's house and brought some wine for Mr . Liang on the way home . " He paused for a second and continued, "Since everybody is already resting, I won't wake them up . I'll leave now . Thank you . "
He walked back to his car and took a seat . Gu Yusheng drove towards his grandpa's house without wasting a second .
Everyone in his grandpa's house had already gone to sleep, but Gu Yusheng had the key to the house . He opened the door and quietly walked around the whole house, but he didn't see Qin Zhi'ai, so he went back to his car again .
She wasn't at his grandpa's house and hadn't gone back to the Liang's house, either . Gu Yusheng lifted his wrist to check the time . It's already two o'clock in the morning . He wondered if she was hiding somewhere or had returned home after getting tired .
Gu Yusheng called the housekeeper first, but she didn't answer the phone . He started the car and drove back to his house .
The light in the house was still on . This time, the housekeeper wasn't waiting at the door . Instead, she was napping on the sofa in the living room . When she heard the door, she jumped and rushed to the door . When she saw it was only Gu Yusheng, she looked a little disappointed . "Do you have any news about Miss?"
Gu Yusheng didn't answer her . He changed into house slippers, walked into the living room, and took a seat at the sofa .
The housekeeper was a little sleepy, but immediately woke up after she learned Gu Yusheng had no news about Qin Zhi'ai . She went to pour a big glass of water for Gu Yusheng and placed it in front of him . She timidly asked, "It's so late . Where could Miss go? She couldn't be in danger, could she?"
Gu Yusheng was really thirsty after running around for a couple of hours . He had lifted the glass to his lips when he heard what the housekeeper was implying . He frowned, not even in mood for water anymore . He slammed the glass back onto the coffee table .
He finally sat down on the sofa, but became anxious again after the housekeeper mentioned danger . He got up in a rage and paced back and forth as he checked the time .
The hour hand on the clock had reached four . The housekeeper could not help thinking out loud, "It's already four o'clock . Why hasn't she come back yet? Where is Miss? Is she safe?"
As she mused, she asked Gu Yusheng, "Mr . Gu, do you think we should call the police?"
