I Regained My Memories and Became Rich After Getting Divorced Chapter 226:1 hope we’ll work well together

Chapter 226:1 hope we’ll work well together
Translator: _Min_
Song Ling’s gaze sharpened as he stared at Gu Dai, his voice harsh with inquiry, “Why would you fall out of love? Even if you no longer cherished me, is there a need for such a clear-cut boundary between us?”
Gu Dai pressed her lips together, her eyes brimming with scorn as she looked at Song Ling, “Why I don’t love you, you really don’t know?”
Song Ling froze, his question tinged with bewilderment, “How would 1 know?” “Because the one who loved you was me without my memories, not who I am now. Moreover, what makes you think that, after regaining my memories and knowing how indifferent you’ve been to me for three years, hurting me time and again, 1 could still get along with you harmoniously?” Gu Dai retorted.
The thought of her own dejection over the past three years made Song Ling particularly irksome to Gu Dai. She couldn’t help but want to punch him—and she did exactly that.
Song Ling was kicked several times, ending up in agony on the ground.
Seeing Song Ling’s condition swept away the frustration from Gu Dai’s heart. At that moment, she realized something.
Gu Dai thought she had been wrong to refuse Song Ling’s partnership in the past. After all, leveraging his involvement for profit came with no loss to her and could bring about benefits—it was clearly a favorable venture.
Looking down at Song Ling on the ground, Gu Dai casually said, “About that collaboration on the Suzhou embroidery project you mentioned last time, 1 agree. I hope we’ll work well together.”
Song Ling, taking the hand Gu Dai offered, was momentarily dazed by the smile on her face. He grasped her hand, somewhat stupefied, and replied, “I look forward to a pleasant collaboration.”
Gu Dai nodded in satisfaction, withdrew her hand, and said, “It’s getting late. President Song, you should also head back. Goodbye.”
With those words, Gu Dai strode into the villa.
Song Ling watched her retreating figure, his expression inscrutable, his fingers rubbing together as if they could still feel the softness of her touch.
Gu Dai received a call from Zhou Ci the moment she stepped back in.
Sitting on the couch with her legs crossed, her voice was cool, “Calling me, do you have something to confess?”
Gu Dai had known the moment Song Ling disclosed her identity that it was Zhou Ci who had told him.
After watching Song Ling march away, Zhou Ci had a foreboding feeling and called Gu Dai guiltily. He knew that Song Ling had approached Gu Dai when Gu Dai questioned him.
Realizing this, Zhou Ci apologized sincerely, “I’m sorry, 1 was wrong.”
“I remember you promised me that you wouldn’t tell anyone else my identity,” Gu Dai said.
Zhou Ci hurriedly replied, “1 did promise, but when Song Ling wronged you, 1 just couldn’t hold back and revealed your identity.”
Gu Dai didn’t need confirmation; she knew this was something Song Ling would do.
After Zhou Ci’s explanation, he took the initiative to say, “As compensation, I’m willing to adjust the share of the Suzhou embroidery contract from fifty-fifty to forty-sixty.”
Gu Dai’s eyebrows lifted slightly in surprise, “After the change, you’ll lose at least ten million yuan. Will the Zhou Corporation agree?”
Zhou Ci quickly assured, “Don’t worry, 1 will make sure my sister agrees. Even if she doesn’t, I’ll find other ways to compensate!”
The current president of the Zhou Corporation was Zhou Ci’s cousin, Zhou Jue, who prioritized the company’s interests above all and would never agree to a loss-making deal.
Gu Dai felt that Zhou Jue would never agree, but…
Gu Dai’s eyes lowered as she said, “I’ve just reached an agreement with Song Ling; he will also join the Suzhou embroidery project. So even with a forty-sixty split, we will still earn much more than with the original fifty-fifty.”
Zhou Ci’s eyes brightened at the news, eagerly responding, “Great! By the way, when Song Ling came looking for you, he said…”
Before Zhou Ci could finish, he realized the call had been disconnected, leaving him somewhat perplexed.
Nevertheless, knowing that Gu Dai wasn’t angry about him informing Song Ling relieved him, and he left to find Zhou Jue.
Gu Dai had abruptly ended the call because she suddenly remembered that although she had decided to collaborate with Song Ling, they hadn’t signed a contract yet—it was only a verbal agreement. She hurriedly instructed her lawyer to draft a contract and had it sent to the Song Corporation.
In the following days, Gu Dai was engulfed in work, almost forgetting the existence of Gu Zhi and Gu Yin, so when she saw the two in the villa one day upon returning home, she felt a sense of surrealism.
Gu Dai cast a casual glance at the two, inquiring, “What do you need from me?”
Gu Zhi responded with a smile, “It’s all because Yinyin said she missed you and insisted that I bring her over to see you..”
