Chapter 157: I treat you as a brother, and you come to poach my wall?

"She has returned, but she is still just Qin Shu; your status is more noble than hers, and you are now Tingyan's fiancée."

"What you need to do now is quickly seize Tingyan's heart, and then inherit the Chu Family."

Lin Jingshu said coldly: "Even if there were a thousand, or ten thousand Qin Shus, they would not be your match."

"You must understand one principle: having power and influence is stronger than anything else."

Upon hearing this, Chu Sheng's originally nervous and fearful heart instantly settled down.

She looked up at her mother-in-law, Lin Jingshu, with determination in her eyes: "Mom, you are right."

She curled her lips and murmured: "I am the one who is Tingyan's fiancée now."

Chu Sheng chuckled: "Qin Shu is the one who is the third party now."

Moreover, her father values her; she is the only future heir to the Chu Group.

So what if Qin Shu is back? She is still just a stepping stone for her.

Seeing that she had figured it out, Lin Jingshu thought she wasn't too stupid.

If it weren't for the fact that Chu Sheng gave birth to a grandson for her, Lin Jingshu wouldn't bother with her; compared to Qin Shu, Chu Sheng as a daughter-in-law was much better.

High social standing, beautiful, obedient, easy to control, and the future heir to the Chu Family.

All in all, Lin Jingshu was quite satisfied.

"I heard Tingyan gave you half the shares of one of his research companies?" Lin Jingshu said suddenly.

A smile appeared on Chu Sheng's face: "Yes."

Lin Jingshu was quite satisfied with this move by her son, and she smiled: "It seems Tingyan still values you quite a bit."

"You should be a good daughter-in-law to the Gu Family; in the future, the heir to the Gu Family will surely be you and your son."

The company under Gu Tingyan's name is called Shengda Group, primarily dealing in technology and medicine.

Upon hearing this, Chu Sheng's heartbeat quickened, and her face was filled with surprise and astonishment.

"Yes, Mom, I will do a good job."

Lin Jingshu nodded slightly, looked at her, and said in a low voice: "You know about Lynn, who has been very prominent in the medical field lately, right?"

"The anti-cancer drug she developed has everyone in Beijing scrambling for her."

"No matter what, you must poach her."

"Your Chu Family made its fortune in medicine; she will definitely bring you great assistance."

"Once you succeed in your career, won't Tingyan look at you more often?"

Chu Sheng naturally understood this principle, but...

She wore a look of helplessness on her face and looked up at Lin Jingshu: "This person's identity is mysterious; I had a detective look into it, but they couldn't find her background."

"I don't know what kind of person she is."

"Tomorrow, she will go to New Rui Group; I have obtained an invitation for you." Lin Jingshu handed over the invitation.

Chu Sheng took it, held it in her hand, looked up at Lin Jingshu with a solemn vow, and smiled: "Mom, don't you worry."

"I will definitely poach her."

Xinrui Technology may be developing well, but compared to the Gu Family, it is far behind.

——

Qin Shu had just coaxed Nangong Jin to sleep, tiptoed out to close the door, and when she went downstairs, she saw Ji Yanli sitting on the living room sofa.

A cup of warm milk was placed on the table; hearing the movement, Ji Yanli looked up slightly: "Is the child asleep?"

Qin Shu: "Yes."

Ji Yanli handed the milk to her: "Drink it; your sleep quality isn't very good, and it's good to drink this before bed."

Qin Shu took the milk and sat on the sofa to the left of Ji Yanli.

Ji Yanli said in a low voice: "Gu Tingyan is still outside."

After the man finished speaking, his expression changed for a moment; he stared at Qin Shu, his fingers tightening slightly.

He was afraid that Qin Shu would go find Gu Tingyan and rekindle their old flame.

Qin Shu's hand holding the milk paused, and she looked at Ji Yanli opposite her: "Yanli, he and I have no relationship anymore."

"I will not go back to find him."

Ji Yanli's long eyelashes trembled; he never felt truly at ease in his heart. To the outside world, he was the self-restrained and high-and-mighty President Ji.

But no one knew that in front of Qin Shu, he never had any confidence in himself.

Qin Shu put down the milk, walked in front of Ji Yanli, lowered her head, and kissed the corner of the man's lips.

After the kiss, she stood still in front of him with a brilliant smile on her face: "How about now?"

The woman's moist and bright eyes looked at him with a smile: "Do you still not believe me?"

Ji Yanli was shaken to his core; he hadn't expected Qin Shu to kiss him.

In the face of love, as powerful as President Ji was, he was nothing but a coward.

He never hoped for anything; in the past, watching Qin Shu from afar, he just thought that as long as she was happy, it was enough.

Ji Yanli stood up, held Qin Shu tightly in his arms, his voice trembling: "Huahua."

He loved Qin Shu; he had loved her for a full 12 years.

If Gu Tingyan hadn't appeared, that substitute marriage should have been Qin Shu marrying him.

Qin Shu reached out and hugged Ji Yanli, her face pressed against his chest: "I can tell the difference between what is liking and what is gratitude."

This was telling Ji Yanli that she was not with him out of gratitude or pity.

If it were because of those things, Qin Shu could actually compensate him with a large amount of money.

And she, likewise, was not a woman who would wrong herself by choosing to be with a man she did not love.

Hearing this, Ji Yanli felt moved and fervent deep in his heart; he held Qin Shu and spun her around again and again, as happy as a child.

Tired of spinning, Ji Yanli set her down, pressed his forehead against her temple, and the corners of his lips curled slightly: "Girlfriend, please take good care of me in the future."

A smile also appeared on Qin Shu's face: "Sure."

Outside the villa.

Gu Tingyan's car had been parked there for a long time, refusing to leave; he sat in the cabin, staring at the light in the villa, and as he watched it go out, his heart sank deeper and deeper.

Ji Yanli said goodnight to Qin Shu, and after he finished washing up and lay down in bed, the phone at the corner of the bed began to vibrate frantically.

Without needing to think, Ji Yanli knew who it was.

The call was from Gu Tingyan.

Ji Yanli did not want to answer, but the calls were like a death warrant, bombarding his phone frantically.

He got up and answered, his brows and eyes dark: "Something up?"

Gu Tingyan gritted his teeth, his voice low: "Are you sleeping together?"

Ji Yanli raised an eyebrow: "That's none of your business, is it?"

"President Gu is someone else's fiancé, so being this concerned about my woman, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Gu Tingyan stood tall and straight in front of the car hood, a cigarette pinched between his fingertips, and sneered: "Your woman?"

"Ji Yanli, she is my person!"

"I treated you like a brother, and you come to poach my corner?"

"Do you think that's appropriate?"

Ji Yanli smiled faintly: "It's appropriate, why wouldn't it be?"

"You two divorced eight hundred years ago; that's right, she is your ex-wife, an ex-wife, not your woman."

"Huahua has already gone to sleep, don't come and disturb her rest."

After saying this, Ji Yanli hung up the phone directly.

Ever since Qin Shu kissed him, he now had more confidence when speaking to Gu Tingyan than before.

When Gu Tingyan called again, the other side had already turned off the phone, making him so angry that he smashed the phone directly against the wall!
