"He felt guilty towards Xiao Ying. It was only in front of Xiao Ying that he didn't act rashly. In any case, she saved him. Since then, you also know that he hasn't been interested in any other woman."
Wen Yi sighed. "Actually, Old Gu and I didn't have any hopes of him getting married or having children. At that time, when he said that he wanted to come back to China to relax and find his sister, we only took it as an excuse to escape from the villa. Meeting you was really an accident in life."
"Meeting Si Nian was also an accident in my life."
Ji Xiaoyue frowned.
However, this accident was too shocking for her. Her entire youth was in turmoil.
"Xiao Yue, our family feels that his life is actually dark and gloomy. It's not because no one can illuminate him, but because he would rather be buried under a pile of ruins. But you made him walk out of it, so I hope that the two of you can truly permeate each other's lives and live a good life."
Ji Xiaoyue pursed her lips.
She knew that it was a very sad thing to fall in love with a man with a story. You couldn't make him forget the past, and you couldn't even ask him to let go of the past because it was a part of him. It constantly reminded you of its existence and couldn't be erased.
She thought about this before she got married and accepted it.
But it wasn't until after she got married that she understood that when the other person's memories were a minefield that you couldn't penetrate and talk to, friction was inevitable.
The impact of Su Ke and the child's death on Gu Sinian was so great that it was beyond her imagination.
Because of the child's ashes, he almost didn't have any glass bottles with him. The decorations in the house were always mainly milky white. Even the windows were designed with wooden shutters. He never drank from a glass cup and was always drinking from a white porcelain cup.
Did he really let go?
Neither of them mentioned it and tacitly deceived themselves.
Yes, he let go.
"Is it enough to just have this child?"
Ji Xiaoyue looked at Wen Yi. "But I think Si Nian doesn't want this child."
"Child." Wen Yi touched her forehead with a loving expression. "You're wrong. After the child is born, you'll understand. All his energy will be placed on this child. Your family and everything in the past will be gone."
Ji Xiaoyue looked at Wen Yi as if she understood.
Even if she didn't understand, Wen Yi's words couldn't be wrong. Who could understand her son better than her?
However, it seemed to be a tradition of the Gu family to leave things unsaid!
Ji Xiaoyue tilted her head and coughed dryly, secretly sighing.
In the Gu family, from the head of the family, Gu Heng, to Ye Huanyan's little assistant, Gu Chi, all of them had outstanding IQ. Their words were very profound and difficult to understand. The only exception was Gu Min, who was a weapon lover. She was always shouting about fighting and killing.
In a private room of a private club in Lanjiang City, a middle-aged man in his forties played with a purple clay teapot in his hand. There was a hint of impatience between his brows. "What time is it?"
The assistant beside him glanced at his wrist. "CEO Hong, it's 11 o 'clock."
Hong Rizhang frowned and looked in the direction of the room's entrance. There was no one else other than the waiter standing respectfully.
Today, he had an appointment with Umbo to discuss the acquisition of Pleasure Group.
This was already the third time. The first two times, Umbo was very enthusiastic. This time, he was actually half an hour late.
"CEO Hong, will Mr. Wen not come?"
"Impossible."
Hong Rizhang sneered. "Unless he wants to wait for Pleasure Group to declare bankruptcy and be burdened with debt. How's the news from Macau?"
Hearing that, the assistant breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. "That's true. Our son is disappointing. He lost 20 million in one night. Right now, other than you, who else can take out such a large sum of money to acquire Pleasure Group in such a short time?"
As he spoke, the door of the room opened and the waiter's voice sounded. "Sir, please come in."
A white-haired man walked in with the smell of alcohol. Although he was dressed in a suit, it still could not hide the decadence on his body. The dark circles under his eyes were especially serious. One look and one could tell that he was sleep-deprived.
"CEO Wen is here."
The assistant stood up and greeted him. He did not show any displeasure at his lateness.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting."
Wen Bo glanced at Hong Rizhang. Although his words were apologetic, he didn't look apologetic at all. Instead, he sat down across from Hong Rizhang and asked the waiter for a cup of tea.
"It's okay. I just arrived too."
Hong Rizhang took a sip of tea and put down the cup. "I don't have much time today. Let's get straight to the point. You should have seen the previous conditions. I'm willing to raise the price, but don't mention the shares again. You see …"
"Can't I tell the difference between a fishing rod and a fish?"
Umbo sneered. "Do you think I'm short of money? What I want is future prospects. You're not the only one who wants to acquire Pleasure Group. "
"But other companies may not have the ability to bring him back from the dead."
"Forget it."
Umbo suddenly stood up. "Since you don't have much time today, there's no need to talk about it. Let's talk about it another day. I have something to do, so I'll leave first."
His cold attitude was something that she had never seen before in the two previous meetings she had with him.
Hong Rizhang's face froze and showed a somewhat stunned expression, but it was quickly drowned by his deep eyes.
"Are you very busy today?"
"I have an appointment to talk about something."
Wen Bo stood up and brushed the dust off his suit. Compared to the two wrinkled suits he wore during the discussion, today's outfit seemed to have been purposely cleaned up.
Hong Rizhang became alert and asked tentatively, "Talk about something?"
"What about it?"
Umbo glanced at him, his words and actions full of pride. "Only you, CEO Hong, are allowed to talk about things, but I can't? Although I'm in dire straits now, Pleasure Group is such a big company. A starving camel is still bigger than a horse. There are many people who want to talk about business with me. "
As he spoke, he had already walked to the door of the private room. "I won't say much, I have to go. Let's talk about the acquisition another day."
The assistant sent him to the door. When he turned back, he had a panicked look on his face. "CEO Hong, look at his attitude …"
Hong Rizhang's face darkened. "Follow him and see who he's meeting this afternoon. Think of a way to find out who has contacted him recently."
"Yes."
In a secluded and elegant small cafe, Su Nianhua was wearing a blue suit, a pair of Gucci sunglasses between his slender fingers. He lowered the brim of his hat and held a cup of coffee in his other hand, looking very elegant and calm.
The smell of alcohol opposite him hit him in the face, but his expression did not change. "I'm just doing this on behalf of someone else. You also know that the domestic media industry has a bright future. That's why my uncle wants to develop in the domestic market. However, it's not that easy to start one's own business. That's why he wanted to acquire it."
Umbo raised his eyebrows. "That's natural. Pleasure Group is just temporarily avoiding the limelight. The previous rumors weren't very good. His internal operating mechanism and those big clients are all …"
"You don't have to explain these to me." Su Nianhua looked at him with a half-smile.
