Chapter 161 - 161: Get To Know Her
The top trending topic featured Song Ling, accompanied by a blazing “Breaking” label.
“#SongLing, the President of Song Corporation, has built over a dozen orphanages over the years and donated hundreds of millions!”
“Song Ling is such a good person. He’s done so many great deeds over the years. The more I think about what he’s recently been through, the more my heart aches for him.”
“Absolutely. He’s not only handsome but also has a great character. He’s never been involved in any scandals. Yet Jiang Yue, who got so lucky with him, is ungrateful and even cheats on him!”
“If I could marry Song Ling, I’d be obedient and sensible, taking care of his everyday needs, his mother, and his sister. I’d never cause him any stress.”
Reading through these exaggerated comments, Gu Dai fell into deep thought, particularly puzzled by those who claimed they would be obedient and look after their in-laws. She couldn’t understand why anyone would willingly subject themselves to that.
Some comments also supported Jiang Yue.
“Jiang Yue didn’t cheat! All those videos were from before she was with Song Ling. Don’t you people have exes too? What’s the problem with doing such things when dating?”
However, this person was quickly rebuffed, though a few stood up for Jiang Yue.
“Heh, the premise is that Jiang Yue was dating someone else, which she wasn’t. She was just seducing the director to get a role.”
“Sure, we might have exes, but not multiple ones at the same time. And those men in the nightclub don’t look like Jiang Yue’s exes, do they?”
“Jiang Yue is shameless; otherwise, why would videos like that exist?”
“She explained that the faces in those videos were altered, and it wasn’t her. Why aren’t you listening to the explanation and just blindly criticizing?”
Chu Min softly asked Gu Dai, “Boss, are you alright?”
Lying on the couch, Gu Dai sighed, “I have to admit, Song Corporation’s PR is impressive, especially how they’ve shifted Grandpa Song’s achievements onto him.”
Chu Min paused, incredulous, “I thought he fabricated those, not that he was taking credit for someone else’s work.”
Gu Dai hummed in agreement.
Over the past three years of her amnesia, she had gathered in-depth knowledge about Grandpa Song and Song Ling himself. She was absolutely certain that these deeds were not Song Ling’s doing.
An idea flashed across Chu Min’s mind, “Boss, should we expose Song Ling’s lies?”
Gu Dai lowered her gaze, pondering before finally refusing, “Let it be. If the company’s stock falls, it might affect Grandpa’s mood. Let’s not disturb him.”
Though Chu Min wanted to argue, recalling Gu Dai’s firm tone made him keep his mouth shut.
In recent days, Song Ling had been deeply occupied with handling public relations, making him look particularly haggard. After a night of rest and noticing the improved situation online, he found himself at Gu Group the next morning.
Song Ling was intensely curious about Gu Dai’s identity. He wanted to confront her and get clear answers.
He wanted to know what secrets Gu Dai was hiding, to get to know her again—the real her.
Upon reaching the reception desk, Song Ling ordered coldly, “Tell your Chairwoman Gu to come down and see me.”
The receptionist, hearing Song Ling’s harsh demand to meet their beloved Gu Dai, was instantly irked. She even managed to ignore his good looks as she responded coldly, “I’m sorry, but our Chairwoman is quite busy. 1’11 have to check for you.”
Most importantly, the receptionist had a good memory. She remembered that Gu Dai had shown a lack of interest in Song Ling, the CEO of Song Corporation, before. Therefore, she didn’t dare to make a decision rashly.
She was about to phone Zheng Ming, who would then relay the message, when she caught sight of Gu Dai walking in. Wearing a smile, she greeted softly, “Chairwoman Gu.”
Gu Dai returned the smile and nodded, proceeding to stride out of the company.
Song Ling hadn’t anticipated that he would be so blatantly ignored by Gu Dai, and his face darkened instantly.
Hurrying to catch up, he reached out to grab her wrist.
But Gu Dai, now seasoned in his tactics, deftly sidestepped his move.
Her expression turned cold, and she spoke in an irritated tone, “I’m busy right now. I’d appreciate it if you didn’t disturb me, or else don’t blame me for being rude.”
Unwilling to let her go, Song Ling pressed, “Gu Dai, what other secrets are you hiding?”
