Seeing Gu Qingcheng's intense reaction, the butler immediately realized he had spoken out of turn and quickly bowed his head in silence.
Gu Qingcheng's face, which was previously flushed from Huo Xuan's comments, suddenly turned pale at the mention of Miss Li.
She noticed the butler's fearful behavior with her ashen face.
Her heart was racing, not with the excitement caused by Huo Sicheng's flirtations, but with panic and nervousness.
"I asked you a question," she said after taking a deep breath, her voice stern. "You told me Miss Li called, right?"
The butler bowed his head even lower, not daring to make a sound.
"Don't test my patience." Seeing the butler's silence, Gu Qingcheng's anger flared, and she demanded, "Speak!"
Terrified, the butler trembled all over and cautiously replied, "To answer Madam, yes, it was a call from a Miss Li."
