Chapter 437: 433. Gifts and Warnings (Please subscribe, monthly tickets!)

Zhang Ran looked at Liu Kai and Gu Panpan, who were somewhat reserved in front of him, and smiled, saying: "Alright, you two should go walk around the courtyard. In the future, when you come to Beijing, just ask your sister for the key and come stay here directly."

"Thank you, Zhang Shu." Liu Kai seemed to only know how to say this; he did not know how to express the gratitude in his heart.

Zhang Ran actually did not have a good impression of Liu Lu's maternal family at the beginning; after all, Liu Lu had previously been mocked by people in the village for marrying his son, Zhang Sicheng.

However, ever since Liu Kai returned the luxury car he had already won in a lucky draw last time, his opinion of this family had changed somewhat.

At the very least, Liu Kai's personality was more to his liking.

Liu Lu took Liu Kai to find a room to settle in. "Panpan, take a look at these wedding dresses and see if there are any you like."

After getting them settled, Liu Lu took out a tablet computer, which displayed photos of exquisite wedding dresses one by one.

Upon seeing these photos, Gu Panpan's eyes lit up, flickering with a hint of infatuation.

They were simply too beautiful!

The delicate patterns and the materials that looked excellent at a glance—almost every detail could reflect the designer's dedication.

"Sister, these are too beautiful; I like them all," Gu Panpan said, suppressing the excitement in her heart.

She could guess what Liu Lu meant by this.

"Then pick the one you like the most. I was originally planning to send these to you in the next two days, but since we've met, just choose now, and I'll have someone make it for you," Liu Lu said with a light smile.

These wedding dresses were previously designed by the tailors from Prince Haiman's side; some had not been used by anyone and were discarded designs.

But even so, they were incomparably exquisite.

Liu Lu did not ask Prince Haiman's side to find someone to redesign them specifically for Gu Panpan; she had always known her limits.

At appropriate times, she could help her maternal family, but she could not help them without limit, and even less could she use her husband's family's favors to help them.

This time, it was also because Zhang Ran had spoken up, asking her to choose a suitable gift as a reward for Liu Kai's previous actions.

These were all ready-made and did not need to be redesigned. As long as Gu Panpan made her choice and sent over some of her measurements, the people on that side would help get it done.

Gu Panpan did not know how to choose for a moment, and she was also a bit embarrassed.

However, Liu Kai was not like this. He would be very reserved when facing Zhang Ran, but when facing his own sister, he was still very relaxed.

"Sister, you are too good to me," Liu Kai said with a grin.

Liu Lu glared at him and said: "This isn't from me to you; it's a gift from my father-in-law to you. You did the right thing last time, and it's rare for my father-in-law to praise you."

"Really?" Liu Kai said, pleasantly surprised.

"Of course it's true, but don't get cocky, and don't use his name to do anything bad, or I won't spare you," Liu Lu warned quickly when she saw he was getting a bit carried away.

Liu Kai said: "Sister, don't you worry, I won't do such stupid things."

Yes, Liu Kai would certainly not do such stupid things.

His sister had already gained the recognition of the Zhang Family, and the Zhang Family had never been stingy; there was no need to annoy the Zhang Family over small matters, as that would not only make the Zhang Family unhappy but also make things difficult for Liu Lu.

"You two remember, do what you are supposed to do. If you have any requests, just say so. As long as they aren't excessive, I as your sister will definitely help you, but you must never, ever do anything excessive, otherwise..." Liu Lu was still somewhat worried.

The more she saw, the more she understood the power of her husband's family, especially the power of her father-in-law.

If Liu Kai really offended Zhang Ran because of some matters, that would be the biggest mistake Liu Kai could make.

Liu Kai quickly said earnestly: "Sister, don't you worry, I will absolutely not do that. Wouldn't that make me an ungrateful person?"

"As long as you know what you're doing. Don't think your sister is nagging; I'm doing this for your own good," Liu Lu sighed.

Actually, a part of what she said was for Gu Panpan to hear. When Gu Panpan and Liu Kai get married, the Gu Family's affairs will also be Liu Kai's affairs. If something happens to the Gu Family, it's hard to say whether Liu Kai would insist on doing something wrong.

Sometimes, understanding something in one's heart is one thing, but doing it is another. Just like with Fengchao Supermarket, everyone knows this is Zhang Ran's goal, but they all have no choice but to do it.

Liu Kai and Gu Panpan returned after staying here for two days; they still needed to be busy with the upcoming wedding preparations.

Although there were two families helping, and the Liu Family was no longer short of money, since Zhang Ran said he would attend, Liu Kai still hoped to hold it a bit better.

Zhang Ran had not been idle during this time either. Although he no longer intervened in the affairs of Maikai Supermarket, he needed to be informed of the news at the first opportunity.

When encountering certain situations, Jiao Zhen also needed to touch base with Zhang Ran.

Just like yesterday, something happened that even surprised Zhang Ran: there were actually still people in the company who dared to secretly pull strings.

Zhang Ran really had to admire this person's guts. After he had dealt with people like You Jingyang without showing the slightest bit of mercy, this person still dared to reach out at this time—one couldn't help but admire them.

However, since they popped up at this time, then don't blame Zhang Ran for being ruthless; it was just right to treat them as an example to be dealt with again.

Zhang Ran directly had He Qing come forward, handed over some of the person's previous dark materials to the police, and then the arrest, interrogation, and prosecution—all the procedures were arranged for them.

This was considered a small matter, but for the entire Maikai Supermarket, they were still somewhat frightened.

In the last few days, it had returned to how it was at the beginning, walking on eggshells.

Zhang Ran did not care much about this; let Jiao Zhen have the headache.

In the last two days, Gong Nan would also often come over to chat with Zhang Ran about everyday life.

On October 6th, Gong Nan came again, but this time he was not alone; he came as a family, including Qi Lin's uncle.

Seeing Qi Guanghuan, Zhang Ran knew the purpose of their visit this time, and he also secretly sighed that Qi Guanghuan's methods were truly capable; he had found evidence in such a short time.

The reason Qi Guanghuan asked Gong Nan to come with him was to have Zhang Ran show mercy for the sake of Gong Nan.

Although Zhang Ran had previously said he would let bygones be bygones and let him keep his current position, who knew what the final result would be.

Indeed, Zhang Ran could let him keep his current position, but with just a little manipulation, he would become a marginal figure in the company. This was something Qi Guanghuan was unwilling to see, and it was also something the entire Qi Family was unwilling to see.
