The housekeeper answered , " No. " Qin Zhi'ai didn't utter a word , leaving quietly . It was one in the morning . It seemed like Gu Yusheng , again , wouldn't be coming back that night .

Ever since he had commanded the housekeeper to watch her while she swallowed the contraceptive pills , it had been a month since he had gone back to the house .

When he was leaving , he left a message with the housekeeper ordering Qin Zhi'ai not to bother him with anything else . Following what he said , she didn't look for him at all . As a result , they didn't meet or contact each other in that month .

Qin Zhi'ai stared at the grandfather clock not far away from her , watching as the hour hand struck one . She spaced out for quite some time before she gradually shifted her gaze back to the television screen . The television was showing a movie that starred one of her favorite celebrities , but she was too moody to continue watching it . She decided to turn it off and go upstairs .

Perhaps it was because she thought of Yusheng while she had been gazing at the clock just now , but Qin Zhi'ai couldn't fall asleep immediately , even when she was in bed . She closed her eyes while her thoughts went wild . When she finally managed to fall asleep after a long on the bedside table rang .

The phone displayed the landline number of the Gu Mansion She picked up the phone and answered it . It was Nanny Zhang , who had served the Gu family for more than twenty years . " Young Mistress , I am sorry to call you at this time . Old Master Gu phoned earlier on and said that he will be morning flight back to Beijing.He wants you and Young Master Gu together for dinner ... "

Nanny Zhang only obeyed instructions from Old Master Gu . She was probably the only one in the Gu family who dared to go against Yusheng's orders not to address her as " Young Mistress . "

" And for Young Master , please convey this message to him ... '

But he asked me not to bother him with anything . The words were at the tip of her tongue , as she wanted Nanny Zhang to make the call instead . However , she recalled the warning that Gu Yusheng gave her on the day she moved in .

He said that his Grandpa was his only remaining family in the world . If she hadn't used despicable methods to persuade his Grandpa , he wouldn't have had to be with her under his Grandpa's orders . He also wouldn't have bothered to look at her , let alone stay under the same roof .

He added on that he wouldn't forgive her if his Grandpa found out about their sour relationship and worried .

If she asked Nanny Zhang to call Yusheng instead , it would be evident that they were on bad terms , since they were living together . Moreover , Nanny Zhang served Old Master Gu for so many years ...

Qin Zhi'ai struggled for a moment before she decided to swallow what she wanted to say . She changed her mind and said , " Nanny Zhang , I'll tell Yusheng . "

After she hung up the phone , Qin Zhi'ai sat up on her bed . She looked for his number on her cell phone , hesitating for quite some time before she dialed .

As she heard the dial tone from the phone , Qin Zhi'ai was so nervous that she couldn't breathe . One ... two ... three ... at the fourth ring , line was cut on the other side without any hesitation . Gu Yusheng had rejected her call ...

She pursed her lips and didn't attempt to make another call . Instead , she composed herself and sent him a text message . On her phone , the message didn't appear to have sent , so she gave him a call again . However , it wasn't the sound of the dialing tone this time - the line was busy .
