Protagonist:

Shen Yao

The door to the room made a soft sound, and Gu Jingrun looked up to meet Shen Yao, who had just returned from outside.

"How is it? What do you think?"

Gu Jingrun stood up and walked slowly to Shen Yao's side, not forgetting to hand her the water cup he held in his hand as he did so.

Shen Yao took it and drank a sip, "Dull-witted, but she should be able to figure it out."

Given the current situation, Jiang Peiyi doesn't want to be drained to death; she will definitely have to learn self-rescue.

But Jiang Peiyi's own capabilities are limited, and she didn't get close to Gu Jingxing through her own ability.

The secretary position Jiang Peiyi holds is just a very ordinary job.

It's just that Green Forest Real Estate, where Jiang Peiyi was originally located, was managed by Gu Jingxing earlier on.

"I remember the Green Forest Real Estate incident back then caused a huge impact.

After all these years, the people inside haven't changed much," surprisingly, none of them were implicated.

Shen Yao tilted her head, then felt that if Jiang Peiyi really got dragged into Green Forest Real Estate's troublesome affairs, Gu Jingxing marrying her didn't seem cost-effective.

How much is Green Forest Real Estate worth in total? The position of Gu Jingxing's legitimate wife can match several Green Forest Real Estates.

Gu Jingrun helped Shen Yao sit down, "When it comes down to it, Big Brother still likes Sister-in-law quite a bit.

Otherwise, after all these years, any random blind date candidate would be more excellent than Sister-in-law."

Shen Yao put down the water cup, "Put that way, Sister-in-law does have some capability.

In the future, I should get along well with Sister-in-law; I believe with a virtuous wife like Sister-in-law, Big Brother's future life will certainly be blissful and happy."

Gu Jingrun:... Are you sure that's not sarcasm?

Shen Yao blinked, you guess?

The two people stayed at the old house for one night, and early the next morning they left by car in a hurry.

Both companies' businesses were very busy, especially since Shen Yao suddenly had a new planning proposal.

"Since the publicity is this effective, the subsequent arrangements can't stop either."

Shen Yao directly interpreted what it means to be ruthless to others and even more ruthless to oneself.

Didn't she previously use Qiao Xiyue and Gu Jingzhi's matter to create revenue for her own products? Then next she'll use her own engagement banquet to create even greater revenue for her own products.

'The engagement banquet arranged by the Gu Family has invited all the celebrities and dignitaries of H Country.

At such a moment, on such an occasion, as the protagonist being the center of attention is perfectly reasonable, right?'

Shen Yao leaned on the rocking chair, the office empty of anyone, yet that still couldn't stop her enthusiasm for speaking.

And the system, as her chat companion, was behaving exceptionally cute and obedient at the moment.

'Host, you're simply a genius!'

Wow, going to strike it rich, strike it rich; with the Host working this hard, swallowing and taking over the entire Gu Group is just around the corner (beautiful dream not woken up version).

'System, instead of flattering and praising here, why not properly ponder the next task world.'

Shen Yao indifferently stroked the stray hair by her ear, not forgetting to tuck it back behind her temples on both sides.

The system exclaimed, 'The Host is already preparing for the next task world?'

Too fast, right? Although the Host is a genius, even a genius needs time to develop; most importantly, the child hasn't been born yet.

'What's there to worry about, having a child is just the most insignificant thing right now.

Once I use this east wind to establish my company firmly, would the rest be hard to say?'

Currently the most critical issue is company development; from nothing to something, from something to more, Shen Yao can now lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade because the industry she chose temporarily has no direct conflict of interest with Gu Medical.

But no conflict now doesn't mean no conflict later; moreover, Gu Medical's business is basically all in the hands of Gu Mengqing of the Second House.

Gu Jingrun snatching a Kang Lai required all sorts of wrangling with Gu Mengyan and the board of directors.

When Shen Yao's company truly reaches a point where it cannot be ignored, the one to make a move on Shen Yao first will absolutely be this colossal giant, the Gu Family.

The precedent of Hehuan Film & Television is clear before her eyes; Shen Yao absolutely doesn't want the commercial empire she built with such hard work to be handed over to others for nothing.

Even if this 'other' is her future husband's family, and even more so the object she relies on!

Throughout the entire month of August, Shen Yao behaved exceptionally busy.

Not because of the upcoming engagement banquet; even the engagement banquet matters were handled by Zhou Min Hui, Shen Yao lowered many trivial detailed requirements, all the small things that didn't really affect the outcome were let go by her.

Company Office

Shen Yao flipped through the documents in her hand, and let out a long breath of relief.

Finally, hard work pays off; it's done!

'If we roll out according to this plan, by the time we get married next year, the company scale will expand several times over on top of the original foundation.'

As for the capital shortage and broken capital chain issues that such a large company will inevitably face, Shen Yao indicated that those gold, silver, and jewels in her space are not mere ornaments.

She set aside an extra day, and Shen Yao made appointments with several bank representatives.

Using the physical funds she took out, she went through normal deposit and withdrawal procedures.

As for whether the other party would suspect her source of funds? With the Gu Family backing her, what is there to fear.

You know, what financial consortium families lack least are these kinds of gold, silver, antique treasures.

Even if the other party couldn't help but probe, Shen Yao only needed to sit there and smile ambiguously, and the other party would eagerly find a suitable excuse for her.

Unlike the already rumored Gu Jingxing and Jiang Peiyi incident, and also different from Gu Jingzhi and Qiao Xiyue who stirred up a storm throughout the city, Shen Yao is the veritable fiancée who has received the Gu Family's personal acknowledgment.

"So these gold and silver jewelry can serve as the meeting gifts from the Gu Family elders to Junior Shen."

The bank's people can't exactly run up to the Gu Family's doorstep to ask about this treasure.

System:...

The System just wants to deduct 666 from its own Host; it's simply a master at toying with people's hearts.

In this way, not only is the company's most pressing funding problem resolved effortlessly, but it also sends a bogus signal to those partner banks.

At least next time we negotiate cooperation, for the sake of Gu Group's face, the concessions that should be given cannot be few.

Hiss—

Could it be that this is the Host's purpose in seeking out Gu Jingrun? It does seem indeed more cost-effective than other financial consortiums.

You must know the first and second are not merely a difference in ranking; more so, it's a difference in assets and personal connections.

When going out into the world, identity is given by oneself; if strength doesn't measure up, other people simply won't give you face.

When Shen Yao was studying at university, at first she didn't have it easy.

Later, because the company took a turn for the better, plus having such a boyfriend, she slowly gained a certain sense of presence.

Nowadays, quite a few of Shen Yao's company employees are graduates of national universities.

Could it be these people really only chose Shen Yao for money? Under equal conditions, there may well be other aspects of consideration.

Shen Yao never pursues these matters; the reason is she judges by deeds, not by intent.

Never probe what other people are thinking in their hearts; just pay attention to how they act.

In life, it's rare to be muddle-headed!

Ring-ring-ring—

The phone's ringtone sounded, likewise interrupting Shen Yao's contemplation.

"Hello"

"Need to return to the Old Residence tonight; what follows will be some engagement banquet matters."

"Okay, see you downstairs at the company building."

"..."

The phone hung up; Shen Yao smiled, and before standing up to leave, she didn't forget to pick up the planning case on the desktop.

Her time will be very busy next, but the matters that should be explained still have to be explained.

How does that saying go? Time is like water in a sponge; squeeze it and there will always be some.

"Notify management to convene a meeting immediately," Shen Yao waved the planning case in her hand with a cold/indifferent expression, "There are matters that need arranging."

"Yes, General Manager Shen"

The sky grew slightly dark; colorful street lamps brightened on both sides of the street with its ceaseless flow of traffic.

Shen Yao came out of the company and saw Gu Jingrun with hands in pockets, a leisurely look on his face.

"President Gu personally came to pick me up? The honor is mine."

Shen Yao wore an off-white suit, over which she had a long windbreaker; her slender, dense hair hung down her back.

"General Manager Shen is busy with official duties all day; if I didn't come, wouldn't that be insensible."

Gu Jingrun turned and opened the car door, simultaneously resting his hand on the door.

Shen Yao enjoyed Gu Jingrun's gentlemanly demeanor, and finally couldn't hold back the corners of her mouth curling up slightly.

"Company matters handled? Once we go back to the Old Residence this time, we won't be able to get out."

At least until the engagement banquet ends, they both have to serve as auspicious mascots at the Old Residence.

Gu Jingrun sat into the driver's seat from the other side, "Handled more or less.

Some things are difficult to manage, but by the time the engagement banquet ends, they'll also be resolved effortlessly."

The engagement banquet isn't just an ordinary wedding banquet; it also represents Gu Group's regard for them.

Some currently very difficult-to-advance projects, once an engagement banquet ends, are no longer problems.

Shen Yao turned her head to look at Gu Jingrun who was driving, "Feels like this engagement banquet will yield an abundant harvest."

At least Shen Yao's company can take this opportunity to step up to a higher level.

"Otherwise why hold an engagement banquet?" Gu Jingrun raised an eyebrow, "As long as strength is enough, anywhere can be an occasion to negotiate business."

What's an engagement banquet? Next year the two's wedding is the main event.

Financial consortia value profit; it has always been so.

The silver-gray sedan merged into the densely crowded street like a brilliant streak of flowing light.

Shen Yao looked at the bustling, lively scene outside the window, her gaze unconsciously shifting slightly.

Multi-story giant screens continuously played one new product advertisement after another, among them was her own company.

Wow—

Appreciating it like this now, she feels she still has quite a design talent.

Shen Yao happily lowered her head, took out her phone, and continued instructing the assistant on what to do.

Time is money, time is precious; it absolutely cannot be used to waste.

Gu Jingrun:...

Asking: wife loves work very much, what should he do?

Thoughtfully lowering the car speed slowly, Gu Jingrun didn't forget to turn off the music, creating an even more comfortable environment for Shen Yao.

Working all the way until the Gu Family Old Residence, Shen Yao rubbed her somewhat sore neck.

Gu Jingrun got out of the car to open the door for Shen Yao; the two entered hand in hand.

Went to Zhou Min Hui's apartment first; the main character is naturally Shen Yao.

Gu Jingrun merely acted as an accompanying tool person, especially when Zhou Min Hui brought up the topic of Gu Jingxing and Gu Jingzhi, he looked at the sky, looked at the ground, just wouldn't look at his own mother.

Shen Yao:... Chu Xin~

Compared to Gu Jingrun, Shen Yao could be called a thoughtful padded jacket, causing no trouble and making no noise; whatever Zhou Min Hui said, she could follow along, and even had the ability to improve the other's mood.

"Yao Yao ah, our Jing Run being able to marry you is truly not bad."

At least she's a Normal Person; taking her out wouldn't get mocked by Other People.

Zhou Min Hui, a noble lady for many years, now gets a Headache just thinking she still has two Daughters-in-law who aren't of much Usefulness.

No value whatsoever; bringing them in one by one, they can only serve as Flower Vases.

Right in front of Shen Yao, Zhou Min Hui made no effort to hide her profit-seeking face.

A Financial Consortium isn't a philanthropist; if the person brought in has no value at all, wouldn't people privately Nag a couple of sentences?

Shen Yao had no Dissatisfaction whatsoever toward Zhou Min Hui's Complaints; she just did her own thing.

Conveniently, in her heart she also had to thank Jiang Peiyi and Qiao Xiyue, the two of them.

"Mom being Satisfied with me is none other than her being too Dissatisfied with others."

Shen Yao sat at the desk, the two of them having a Conversation about the question just now.

Gu Jingrun stretched out a hand and knocked on the tabletop, "Mom's Attitude to a large extent will Represent Dad's Attitude."

Gu Mengyan and Zhou Min Hui, a married couple for many years; if you say they're deeply in love, that's False; but the two are husband and wife, with Four Children under their knees, and aligned interests is also true.

"Is it that something Happened recently at Gu Group? From Mom's Meaning, the situation is not Optimistic."

Between the lines there was some urgency; Shen Yao thought left and right, and could only Attribute this problem to Gu Group itself.

Gu Jingrun nodded, "Previously Little Uncle returned to the country, and has had no work all along.

It was still Eldest Young Master who proposed, wanting to hand Green Forest Real Estate over to Little Uncle to manage."

"Green Forest Real Estate, that's not Eldest Young Master's thing," nominally Gu Enterprise, in reality Gu Jingxing's private property.

Gu Jingrun sneered, "Dad agreed; after Many Times of discussion with the board, Eldest Young Master's position in Gu Group will undergo Adjustment Optimization."

Shen Yao's eyes Widened, "Second Young Master taking over?"

Gu Jingrun shook his head, "It's Second House's paternal cousin; Second Young Master's own company in hand has rather poor performance, and hasn't achieved the board's demands."

Shen Yao:...

Shen Yao walked to Gu Jingrun's side, and was pulled into his embrace by the other party.

"Dad agreed?"

"Agreed, but Jing Mu and I each Acquired a company."

Acquired a company?

A flash of inspiration in Shen Yao's Brain; she looked up meeting Gu Jingrun's eyes, and the two simultaneously said a name, "Kang Ye"

Shen Yao:!!!

Ginger is still old and Spicy ah; Gu Mengqing wants to take advantage from Gu Mengyan, but Gu Mengyan isn't a decoration either.

Counting Kang Lai which Gu Jingrun has already Acquired, now adding another Kang Ye, then Gu Group's medical industry can be said to be half-open to Gu Jingrun.

Plus Shen Yao is also engaged in medical-related industry; if they Cooperate, the Profit margin absolutely won't be low.

Just now it was said, the board has certain demands on company performance.

Medical industry makes Money very well, but everyone is also Unwilling to earn less Money.

Shen Yao leans on Gu Group to enjoy the shade; Gu Medical also borrows Shen Yao's products to make Big Profits.

"General Manager Gu, looks like tonight I'll have to work hard; my decision is very important."

Shen Yao teased Gu Jingrun, revealing an Appearance of an old lecher.

Gu Jingrun:...

Gu Jingrun seemingly helplessly sighed, "President Shen must Consider carefully," his entire family fortune and life now rest on the beauty in his arms.

The result of Shen Yao's careful Consideration was a night of not sleeping very well; getting up in the morning still Faint and lacking strength.

Aiyo, truly a Sweet burden~

Wearing Pajamas getting up, Shen Yao pulled open the Floor-to-ceiling Window curtains, Gaze looking toward the distance.

Gu Jingrun entered from the Doorway, walked behind Shen Yao and pulled her into his embrace.

The Two People neither spoke, just like that enjoying the rare tranquil time.

Until the room door was Knocked, the Servant responsible for delivering food Arranged the dishes properly.
