Shen Yao, who had been making the phone call with her eyes closed due to exhaustion, suddenly opened her eyes after hearing Gu Tianyou's words.

She took a deep breath and exhaled heavily to calm her turbulent emotions of the day.

She didn't want to have too many emotional ups and downs because of this man anymore.

After pausing for a moment, she glanced at her phone. "I'll be at your house in an hour."

When the words "your home" reached Gu Tianyou's ears, his heart suddenly tightened, and his knuckles, gripping the phone, grew increasingly white.

After a long silence, he deliberately said in a harsh tone, "Hurry up and come over, don't waste my time."

Shen Yao simply replied "okay," hung up the phone, and then told the driver to change the destination.

After driving for half an hour, the car turned around and entered the affluent area of ​​Shenzhen.

Tall tropical rainforest vegetation covers both sides of the wide road.

The towering buildings, under the sky dyed red by the setting sun, appear so majestic and solemn, just like the people who live here, who live forever under the blue sky and white clouds, and who forever stand at the top and look down on life.

If it weren't for Grandpa Gu adopting her, Shen Yao would most likely feel that she would be living in the gutter right now.

An abusive, alcoholic father and a cowardly, incompetent mother could never give her a good future.

Therefore, when Gu Tianyou said that many of the shoes and clothes she left behind were gifts from Grandpa Gu, she had no choice but to come over. Grandpa Gu was like a second parent to her, and his kindness to her was immeasurable.

She could refuse all the lipsticks Gu Tianyou gave her, but she would keep the ones given to her by Grandpa Gu.

As expected, the car was immediately stopped by security guards when it entered the Gu family villa area.

Without a pass or invitation, no outside vehicles are allowed to enter the Gujia Villa area.

Shen Yao didn't want to get out of the car and walk that 1000-meter stretch of road, but it seemed like that was no longer an option.

She could only have the driver wait outside.

"Miss, I have to pick up another customer, I can't wait for you that long!"

"Master, I can give you extra money."

"How long do you want me to wait?"

Considering Gu Tianyou's personality, Shen Yao knew that if she went to get the things now, a lot of things would be waiting for her, and she really didn't know how long it would take.

"Beautiful lady, you seem to have a lot of money. How about this, give me 5000 yuan, and I'll wait here for you all day without any problem."

5000?

Shen Yao has already maxed out her bank card in order to transfer Wang Haiya to another hospital.

She only has less than 10,000 yuan in cash left. If she gives the ride-hailing driver another 5000 yuan, will she starve for the next few days?

"Driver, never mind, I'll just call a car myself later."

"Okay." The ride-hailing driver gave her a meaningful look, muttered under his breath, "Rich people are really stingy." Then, he stepped on the gas and drove away.

Watching the ride-hailing car speed away, Shen Yao sighed. She really wished she were rich.

As she approached the main entrance of the Gu family's house, she saw Gu Tianyou standing with his hands in his pockets in the distance. His handsome face was as gloomy as the dark clouds before a storm, making people feel very depressed.

"It's been over an hour, why are you so late?"

As soon as Gu Tianyou saw Shen Yao, he habitually launched into a tirade of abuse.

Meanwhile, Shen Yao was walking and talking on her phone, completely ignoring Gu Tianyou.

"Huangfu Hao, thank you for your help. I'll treat you to dinner another day."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Yao casually raised her eyes and asked, "Where are my things?"

Ignored by the woman for so long, Gu Tianyou irritably loosened his tie and said in a gruff voice, "Third floor, find it yourself! In short, you have to clean up all your mess, or you're not leaving here tonight!"
