Main Character:
Shen Yao
Qin Kelan was persuaded to leave by her own son and daughter, followed by Han Jinsheng leaving with his son.
The elders who should have left all left, and the remaining younger generation each found excuses to leave as well.
Shen Yao and Gu Jingrun left the fastest; they didn't want to stay and engage in a war of words.
With that kind of effort wasted, Shen Yao would rather go back to work and make money.
"Since they might all be future sisters-in-law, wouldn't that be a bit too cold?"
Gu Jingrun raised an eyebrow; the room the two of them stayed in had been prepared long ago, and Shen Yao had come to the Old House more than once.
"How could it be? General Manager Gu must have misunderstood me," Shen Yao sat in Gu Jingrun's lap, both arms wrapping around his neck, her slender waist unconsciously pulled tight, "I just want General Manager Gu's work to be a little easier; the several medical companies under Gu Group are all excellent cooperation partners."
Of course, as for whether to actually carry out cooperation, everything depends on Shen Yao's wishes.
There are so many medical companies; Shen Yao couldn't possibly only choose Gu Group.
Unless
"Are you confident? Perfect Company's products have had very high sales in the industry over the past two years.
A kinship adding to kinship; I hope the two sides can strengthen cooperation."
In the middle of the night, Gu Jingrun was summoned to the Study by Gu Mengyan and had a load of grand principles smashed down on him; his already bored mood became even more impatient.
Thinking of Shen Yao's schadenfreude when he went out, Gu Jingrun sighed.
"Dad, Gu Group's medical sector is currently under Second Uncle's charge; I can't say too much to Yao Yao about it."
Perfect Company is Shen Yao's enterprise; these years it has become renowned relying on solid product quality.
Although Perfect Company currently cannot compare in scale to any single medical company under Gu Group, Perfect Company's own potential is still widely recognized by many industry insiders.
Gu Mengyan even evaluated Shen Yao as a rare business genius.
Shen Yao: As long as the industry is chosen well, you basically won't encounter any difficulty.
Shen Yao comes with a Cheat; the things she produces have miraculous effects, and with Gu Jingrun and Gu Group standing behind her, why worry about development?
"Your Second Uncle's side isn't a problem; I've already instructed the board to transfer you over to help.
Jintai, Shunyuan, Kangye, Kanglai — you can freely choose one."
Gu Jingrun: ……
"Then what are your thoughts?" Shen Yao looked at Gu Jingrun, who had been sitting on the sofa contemplating ever since he returned, and couldn't help but ask.
Gu Jingrun shook his head, "Haven't decided yet; these four have different emphases.
If cooperating with your company, it's best to choose Shunyuan, which has relevant business," but Gu Jingrun valued Kanglai more for its excellent future potential.
Shen Yao had already changed into pajamas; she poured a cup of warm milk and brought it to Gu Jingrun's side, herself sitting down unhurriedly, "Choose Kanglai."
Gu Jingrun wasn't surprised to hear this, because he and Shen Yao are the same kind of people.
His body unconsciously leaned back a little; Gu Jingrun unbuttoned his collar, then folded the shirt sleeves on both arms up to his forearms, revealing beautiful muscle lines.
"Then I'll have to trouble President Shen to give me more guidance then, so I don't fail to deliver."
The corner of Shen Yao's mouth curled slightly, expression cunning, "That depends on General Manager Gu's performance."
"Performance?"
Gu Jingrun's face was full of pampering; by the time Shen Yao reacted, the person was already lying on the bed.
Shen Yao: …… Eh?
The incandescent lamp overhead was blindingly bright; Shen Yao half-narrowed her eyes, turning her head to look at Gu Jingrun, who had already begun to slowly and methodically take off his own clothes, not forgetting to seriously appreciate Gu Jingrun's good figure while at it.
Not bad, not bad, especially that layer of muscle at the waist and abdomen which, though thin, is full of explosive power.
"Very satisfied?"
"Wait, you'll be even more satisfied."
"……"
Gu Jingrun used absolute fact to prove he hadn't spoken a false word.
Shen Yao was indeed extremely satisfied, especially after getting her hands on him she simply couldn't stop.
The two people stayed in bed playing until very late; even when Shen Yao closed her eyes to sleep, she didn't let go.
Gu Jingrun: Looks like working out really is effective; he should continue to work hard.
A night of sweet dreams, woke up fully rested
Shen Yao calmly moved her hand away from Gu Jingrun's waist and abdomen.
Got up, got out of bed, changed into a sky-blue long dress; Shen Yao waited for Gu Jingrun to finish tidying up, then the two went out to eat.
Living in the Old House, all three meals a day must be eaten together, especially during this relatively sensitive time.
When the two arrived, most people had already appeared, but Gu Bingcheng and Li Shuli, as the elder generation, had not yet shown up.
Huh? Has this matter not been settled yet?
Shen Yao shook her head inwardly; her body settled down following Gu Jingrun's pull.
"Yao Yao, the weather is nice today; later the two of us mother-and-daughter will go out for a stroll."
Zhou Min Hui spoke to Shen Yao with a smile, lowering her head to drink a sip of soup.
"Miss Jiang, you come along too; leave the child to the servants to watch."
Finished speaking, not waiting for Jiang Peiyi to open her mouth to refuse, Zhou Min Hui had already risen and left.
It was as if Zhou Min Hui sitting in the hall was purely to invite them out.
Shen Yao drank the clear rice porridge cooked in her bowl, her gaze attentive to the expressions of those around her.
Good, except for Jiang Peiyi who was obviously panicked, everyone else managed to keep their composure.
Especially Qiao Xiyue, who suffered a severe loss of face last night; worthy of being a star, her bearing was impeccable.
After breakfast, just as the three were about to go out, Gu Jingxing was seen calling Gu Jingrun over.
Shen Yao couldn't hear what the two said, but Gu Jingrun returned with an extremely poor complexion; one look and it was clear Gu Jingxing's words were not pleasant.
Shen Yao spoke up for Gu Jingrun, complaining that Gu Jingxing's actions were not honorable.
Gu Jingrun smiled, patted Shen Yao's shoulder, his hand lightly brushing her cheek, "Eldest Brother's attitude has always been thus; still not as good as Second Brother who knows the times."
Casting a mocking glance at Gu Jingxing not far behind, Gu Jingrun bent down to Shen Yao's ear, "Today going out, just have fun yourself."
As for the others, they are all irrelevant, fundamentally no need to pay attention.
Shen Yao turned her head and kissed Gu Jingrun's cheek, seemingly intimate yet actually teasing, "Blow retaliation?"
Gu Jingrun seriously smoothed his cuff, "Normal companionship."
Shen Yao: ……
Shen Yao covered her mouth with one hand, eyebrows curved, everything unspoken.
The three departed from the old house at ten in the morning; Shen Yao had no small amount of matters, but to accompany her future mother-in-law, she could only push some work later.
Originally thought this merely a simple shopping trip, who knew all sorts of episodes would occur in between.
When Shen Yao saw Jiang Peiyi covering her belly fall to the ground, face full of pain, the only lament left in her heart was that the story's main cast were actually beside her.
Tsk, truly strange!
Born to an ordinary family, gentle kind and considerate little white flower female lead; born to a financial consortium, beautiful selfish and insidious cunning vicious female second; plus a handsome wealthy domineering male lead cold ruthless to all but warm to female lead.
The more she looked the more alike; despite system constantly saying this world fundamentally has no such creatures as male female leads.
"Liu Family simply ignorance of death, Peiyi injured, I absolutely will not let them off lightly."
"Ridiculous! Liu Family generations in politics, holding nearly one-third media resources.
Gu Group cannot accept groundless damage, Gu Jingxing you should be clear what can do what cannot do!"
"Eldest Brother, Father's words not wrong, Gu Group's interests cannot afford loss; Father, Eldest Brother's words also have reason, Eldest Sister-in-law's belly still carries Eldest Brother's child, Liu Clan's young lady moves hand then moves hand, beating still our Gu Family face."
"……"
Shen Yao stood comparatively far, but Gu Mengyan and Gu Jingxing's dispute and Gu Jingzhi and Gu Jingmu's adding fuel to fire she could still hear clearly.
Gu Jingrun just sent off Zhou Min Hui, came to Shen Yao's side stretched hand rub rub eyebrow corner.
"How? I see Eldest Brother their side, moment half moment still cannot unify viewpoint."
Shen Yao simply powerless complaint, this all which connect which, indeed not reliable.
Gu Jingrun both hands in pockets, person appears leisurely, "Only can say heaven time earth advantage man harmony," all are advantageous to them.
Shen Yao signaled Gu Jingrun not too high profile, "Still have Second Uncle they.
However Liu Clan's young lady able directly touch over also very have means.
Our Second Uncle family's that cousin brother, person to marry also Liu Clan young lady."
Merely one Eldest Brother one Second Brother, Liu Clan's two young ladies same father different mother, among also pull out some comparatively secret old matters.
"Everyone heart know belly clear, merely Eldest Brother this scene act too real."
Gu Jingrun evaluation finished, turned body and Shen Yao left Gu Group's private hospital.
……
Gu Jingxing and Jiang Peiyi's wedding banquet ultimately Gu Family placed in late November.
Want compare original fixed big some, but still reach not should have scale.
Same time, Gu Jingzhi and Qiao Xiyue's matter also noisy full city wind rain.
Others temporarily not mention, Perfect Company flag down June launched new model product, borrowing this scandal, sales volume compare expected high out three tenths.
Looking at delivered to self front financial statement, Shen Yao big hand one wave, continue increase investment scale.
Relying on blown out this east wind, Shen Yao earned basin full bowl full.
'Indeed, as long as able increase exposure degree matter all will bring benefit.'
No wonder, first not pipe out what name, solidly to hand money will not deceive person.
Because new product fire explosive, company subsequent some push all timely speed up.
Including previously mentioned self channel establish plan, Shen Yao also borrowing Gu Jingrun light, and Gu Group real estate industry achieve mutual win.
After all real estate this kind thing, sell who not sell, money left hand pour right hand, fall to self family not more cost-effective.
"Is very cost-effective, however pharmaceutical part, Shen General Manager still must more care."
Gu Jingrun already smoothly took over Kang Lai Pharmaceutical, although interim twists turns unceasing, but Gu Jingrun is who? Certain small tricks still able handle.
Even if originally again how, he also in Gu Family accepted orthodox cultivation.
Gu Family's younger generation, just daily by Gu Jingrun despised Gu Jingmu, in commercial talent also not low.
Gu Family's people nature thus, after all in power nest grown people most play power.
"As long price suitable, I naturally more willing and Gu General Manager cooperate."
Shen Yao playfully blinked blink eye, then two people all cannot help laugh out sound.
"Engagement banquet wedding clothes arrived, today have free, we can past look look."
Gu Jingrun gave Shen Yao poured cup warm tea, is Shen Yao most love drink floral tea.
"Still want trouble Gu General Manager drive"
Shen Yao shook shake hand middle tea cup, mouth corner reveal beautiful arc.
"Seek not get"
Gu Jingrun laughing returned sentence, stood up lightly pull hold Shen Yao wrist, two people simply side by side toward door outside walk go.
The wedding attire was delivered to the Old House, which was also the site of their September engagement.
As the two rode back in the carriage, they happened to see Jiang Peiyi, her pregnant belly prominent, holding a child's hand.
A seven-month pregnant belly was not large, but because Jiang Peiyi was in poor condition and physically weak, with a pale complexion, the belly instead appeared very large.
"Miss Jiang."
Shen Yao smiled and greeted Jiang Peiyi, ignoring the other's complexion, turned around, and entered the door with Gu Jingrun.
How could Jiang Peiyi be at the Old House? "I thought she would rather live outside."
Shen Yao turned to look at the unwell Jiang Peiyi, not understanding the logic of this person coming to the Old House to suffer.
The elders of Gu Group directly made clear they disliked her; if it were herself, she would surely run far away.
Anyway, she had already secured the man and was carrying his child in her own belly—was she still afraid of not living well?
"Mother's meaning: An An is Eldest Young Master's eldest son and should stay at the Old House to receive cultivation."
Gu Xuan An, Gu Jingxing's son, was now three years old and still appeared very hostile toward the Gu Family.
One did not know how Jiang Peiyi raised him; besides resembling Gu Jingxing in appearance, there was truly not a single likable trait.
Every time they came to the Old House, he was just like Jiang Peiyi; Shen Yao did not understand their method of offending more the more they associated, and how Gu Jingxing actually accepted it.
Was it really necessary to rely on love to conquer everything? Then Jiang Peiyi was indeed enough to sacrifice.
"Accompanying like this has no effect at all; if the parents cannot be ruthless, they might as well simply give up."
Nowadays, hanging in between, adults are uncomfortable and children are unhappy—it truly is a typical case of double loss.
By this time, the two had already arrived at the room where the wedding attire was placed, with servants inside helping to manage it.
"Someone is too greedy; this matter, no matter how much we say, is useless."
"See how Mom and Dad handle it; but for now, the situation does not look good."
At least for Gu Jingxing, there was not a single good thing about it—it was even better not to marry.
Gu Jingrun also did not understand Gu Jingxing's thinking; if before it was Second Uncle's family scheming, Eldest Young Master also seemed to have no intention of refusing.
If Jiang Peiyi were truly married into the door, for Gu Jingxing it would only add two children and provide no help to his career whatsoever.
As for the children? There are so many who can give birth; there is absolutely no lack of this one.
Shen Yao had already walked to the wedding attire to try it on, displaying herself left and right in front of the full-length mirror.
"Will the color be too light?" The off-white fabric layered upon layered like flower petals.
The dress cut fit the figure, especially with that set of pearl jewelry, crystal and jade-moist, making Shen Yao appear even more nobly imposing.
"Why not change it to red? It would suit you better."
Gu Jingrun expressed his opinion, taking out another cheongsam embroidered with gold and silver threads.
Shen Yao reached out to take it, "One must try more after all."
Letting the servants lift the skirt hem to change clothes again, Shen Yao spent the entire afternoon trying on wedding attire.
Finally, three were selected: cheongsam, long dress, formal gown, plus several alternates.
That evening, Shen Yao and Gu Jingrun stayed, and by the way accompanied the elders.
At such times, someone is bound to be wronged, but Shen Yao deeply understood the survival strategy.
As long as it did not involve herself, there was no need to manage too much.
One must know that the most taboo thing about some matters is meddling; asking in daily life, what does it have to do with you? What does it have to do with me?!
"Miss Jiang, rather than envying, you should think of ways from yourself."
"With Miss Jiang's intelligence, you should be able to understand what the Gu Family wants."
If self-pity and self-abasement were useful, then what need was there to strive at all?!
