Chapter 1085 Funeral 4
Upon hearing that, a light shifted in Butler Fang’s lowered eyes. He quickly smiled courteously and said, “Madam, feel free to ask me anything. I’ll answer everything I can!”
When Doris heard that, she chuckled happily. Her elegance took even Butler Fang’s breath away!
Butler Fang rarely saw Doris. The last time they met seemed to have been at Elder Madam Gu’s funeral. Doris was truly a famed beauty. Even at his age, he could not help but be stunned by her beauty!
It was no wonder the boss doted on her so much!
“Very good, Butler Fang. You’re a frank person. I like frank people, but I don’t have many questions. I just wanted to ask how your Master’s been,” Doris said as she looked at the sofa, “Have a seat. Chat with me.”
Butler Fang nodded and sat down hurriedly. “How has the Master’s health been recently?”
Doris did not speak with perfect diction. There were still hints of her English accent, but it sounded very natural and gentle.
“The boss has been quite healthy, but he’s always working till past midnight. In fact, he misses you very much. Before you returned, he had already told Ah Yong and everyone in the mansion to redecorate the whole place and change it to a style that you liked. Even the potted plants in the backyard have been changed to flowers that you like, Madam,” Butler Fang beamed and said.
Doris nodded brightly. “He’s really put in a lot of thought. You have all worked hard too, and I’ll reward you all later on. Did you say that the Master’s always working till past midnight? I remember that at home, he would usually be done with work in the day. Has he been very busy recently? The days are long and he still can’t finish work? City Z is a bustling city. The nightlife is so exciting, and your Master isn’t such a settled person. It’s too bad if he won’t go out more.”
Butler Fang watched as Doris frowned slightly. Immediately, he smiled. “That’s not quite true. Even though the boss is usually busy with work, he will sometimes go out. Miss Lingsha and Master Feng rarely come back, so the boss is normally alone.”
“What’s fun to do around here then? I haven’t been back in quite a few years now,” Doris raised her brows and asked.
“There are many things to do and quite a lot of places to see, but I think with your status, Madam, you can go to Emperor Entertainment City or Imperial Sky Entertainment City. The boss usually goes there too, but he always goes alone or brings Ah Yong with him. Ther aren’t many people by his side, so he’s quite lonely too.”
“Imperial Sky Entertainment City, is it?” Doris muttered softly, then smiled to say, “Okay, I got it. Apart from that, where else does your Master like to go?”
“He doesn’t seem to go anywhere. Sometimes, he goes fishing by the river. He doesn’t have many hobbies.”
“Okay, I’m done asking. Go do your work. I’ll walk around. Tell the kitchen to prepare some delicious supper for your Master so that he won’t go hungry when he gets back, okay?” She beamed at Butler Fang.
“Okay! Understood! Understood!”
Then, he retreated.
...
At the same time, in the CEO’s office of the Hui Gu Corporation in City B, Gu Qiwu was standing in his office, looking at the map spread out on his table when suddenly there was a knock. Before he could answer, Ah Yong had already entered.
“Boss! Big news! Look!” Ah Yong rushed in towards the table and could not contain his excitement as he moved close to Gu Qiwu. “Boss, look! Something has happened in the Mu family!”
Annoyed by Ah Yong’s overreaction, Gu Qiwu subconsciously frowned and after a while, he took the tablet from Ah Yong to look and was stunned!
Elder Madam Mu had passed away?
Wang Hui had passed away?
Finding out about this shocked Gu Qiwu. He browsed it a few times before finally believing it was true!
“Boss, this is great news! It’s the best time to kick them down! I think it’s most probably because Mu Yuchen did something and gave the Elder Madam a heart attack!” Ah Yong’s deep voice did not hide his hint of delight.
However, Gu Qiwu’s handsome face looked dismal. From his deep eyes, you could not quite read his emotions.
Upon seeing Gu Qiwu’s expression shifting in gloominess, Ah Yong could not help but call out to him softly, “Boss?”
When he heard Ah Yong, Gu Qiwu pulled himself back and sighed softly. He set the tablet aside and asked in a rather cold tone, “How did she suddenly pass away?”
He never had a good impression of Wang Hui, but he did not hate her either. Upon hearing that she had passed away, it did make him feel faintly sad perhaps because of Mu Zi.
“I don’t know. It says there that she had a heart attack and couldn’t be rescued in time. Her memorial service is tomorrow, Boss. We...” Ah Yong carefully probed.
“Any movements on your Madam’s end?” Gu Qiwu did not answer to his question.
“Madam’s been staying home. She didn’t even go to the Qi residence. I think that this time, she’s really angry. Right, Miss Lingsha went back to visit Madam today, but I heard that she didn’t look very happy when she was leaving. I think that Madam probably didn’t make things easy for her.”
Gu Qiwu sighed helplessly. “She’s like that. She’s never changed, not a single bit.”
When he saw Gu Qiwu’s expression, Ah Yong was slightly tensed too. He quickly went up to him and suggested, “Boss, why not wait till Miss Lingsha’s wedding is done, then we’ll persuade Madam to return to City B? Um, to avoid any mishaps.”
Gu Qiwu obviously understood what mishaps Ah Yong was talking about. His expression darkened as he thought about it for a moment, then said, “Tell our subordinates to all be on their toes. Don’t startle Madam.
“I know best how she’s like. If she wants to stay, telling her to leave will only make her suspicious and that won’t be good for us. Just go with the flow.”
When Gu Qiwu said this, a mixture of emotions gathered in his eyes. Because Ah Yong knew that his boss never liked it when other people mentioned Doris, he did not continue asking about it.
“Pack up. It’s almost time for us to leave. We’ll have to race against time to get back to City Z.”
“Yes, Boss!”
