In fact, almost all of the information Gu Xi had revealed was fake, and that was why the Gu Family Group had fallen into their current situation. A man dressed in an expensive black suit leaned lazily in his seat at the head of the table. Although he was merely sitting in an ordinary chair, his powerful presence made it seem as though he was sitting on a throne.“Some other people have been secretly buying the Gu Family Group’s company stocks as well. Based on what I’ve found, the buying company is an entertainment company owned by Luo Yang, the youngest young master from the Luo family of the four great families. Another company called Beibei Entertainment also participated in the buying process. However, this company has recently been bought over by someone else, and there’s currently no information available about the new owner of the company, so I haven’t been able to find out who the owner is just yet.”“Beibei Entertainment?” There was a faint gleam in Xing Beiyan’s eyes as he m
“Okay, brother-in-law.” Li Lianzhi glanced at Gu Tianxiang shyly and then obediently went upstairs. “Xixi, hurry up and take a seat. Dinner is already served. We’ve been waiting for you to join us.” “Is that so?” Gu Xi asked in a somewhat meaningful tone as she looked at the huge table that was filled with dishes.Indeed, one who showed concern without any reason usually bore evil intentions. “Xixi, how long has it been since you last went to your grandfather’s house?” Gu Tianxiang asked curiously while taking some food for her in a caring manner. “I think it’s been quite long.” Gu Xi thought about her grandfather, who was strict to her yet loved her dearly. In her previous life, her grandfather refused to help her get away from Xing Beiyan and to hand her mother’s company shares over to Gu Xi. On top of that, Gu Xue’er had tried to distort his image in many ways, so Gu Xi had been under the impression that her grandfather was a selfish person. Therefore, after getting married, sh
“When did your grandfather say this?” Gu Xue’er’s eyes grew red. ‘You’re even thinking of having Xing Beiyan’s child? Gu Xi, dream on! That man belongs to me.’ “When I first got married to him, but I was very upset back then, so I didn’t agree with it. “That’s why you have to think about this properly, Daddy. Now, if Grandfather finds out that you’ve taken my shares, he’ll certainly find it suspicious when I go to him and ask for those shares in his possession later.” “Well then, what idea do you have, Xixi?” Gu Tianxiang asked in a puzzled tone.“I’m at a loss for ideas too. I can’t exactly fake a pregnancy and lie to Grandfather, right?” Gu Xi asked with frustration.“Why not?” Gu Tianxiang immediately approved of the idea.“Exactly, Xixi. You can just fake a pregnancy. Don’t tell me you’re really planning to have that man’s child?” Gu Xue’er asked gravely. “But what if Xing Beiyan finds out about this?” Gu Xi still looked quite troubled.When she heard Gu Xi’s words, Gu Xue’er
“Xue’er, you really like Xing Beiyan?” Madam Gu looked somewhat astonished. “Yes, Mom. I fell for him the moment I saw him. I won’t marry anyone but him. However, that shameless b*tch, Gu Xi, used that pretty face of hers to seduce him. This time, we’ll seize this opportunity to manipulate the situation and set Gu Xi up as well. When Big Brother Xing finds out about this later, he’ll definitely be very upset. We’ll be able to kill two birds with one stone…” Gu Xue’er replied excitedly and looked as though she could already imagine herself walking into the wedding hall with Xing Beiyan.“But Xing Beiyan isn’t someone you can control that easily…” Madam Gu said and still felt rather worried. “Mom!” Gu Xue’er appeared to be somewhat upset. “Do you still not trust your daughter? I’ll make him fall in love with me. Don’t worry!“I heard that he likes Gu Xi only because she looks like his first love. Otherwise, how could that fool ever be capable of making him happy?” Gu Xue’er asked with
“Because there’s something I have to settle first.” Xing Beiyan suddenly looked at Gu Xi with an unreadable emotion in his eyes.‘Starting a company, buying the Gu Family Group’s shares, leaking false information… What exactly is Xixi trying to do?’ he wondered.When Gu Xi saw him staring at her so intently, she averted her gaze somewhat uncomfortably. She could not shake off the feeling that he had found out something. This time, Xing Beiyan simply sent her back to campus. Gu Xi kept looking back from time to time as she walked into campus. Honestly speaking, she really wanted to tell him all the things she had been doing but also felt afraid he would think that she had changed too drastically and end up suspecting her. Therefore, she could only keep it a secret and hope that she would get the chance to tell him when their relationship improved. “Master, Gu Tianxiang would like to invite you out for a meal at Royal Hotel tomorrow night. He said he’s hoping to discuss some matters a
“How could you be so careless?” Gu Xue’er turned around and scolded the waitress half-heartedly. Then, she turned back to Gu Xi and soothed her. “Don’t be upset. Come and take a seat.” After that, she looked at the waitress and muttered, “Well, hurry up and serve us our drinks.”The waitress nodded anxiously.“Darling, you’re here too!” Gu Xi looked as though she had just noticed Xing Beiyan. Immediately, she made her way to him and tugged at his black suit to please him.“Mm…” Xing Beiyan always liked her being close to him, so when he saw her doing this, his cold expression from earlier instantly grew warmer, and he personally pulled a stool over to have her sit beside him.“Wow, steamed carp, sweet and sour pork ribs…” Gu Xi’s eyes soon fell upon the dishes on the table, and she asked excitedly, “Is today some kind of a special day?”“Hehe, of course, it’s a special day. We rarely get to share a meal together. Doesn’t that make today a special day?” Gu Tianxiang asked while grinning
Gu Xue’er was caught off guard and secretly called Gu Xi a fool. Nonetheless, she quickly explained, “Of course not. What nonsense are you saying? It’s because Daddy often brings Mom and me here to eat. That’s why I’m more familiar with this place.” Gu Xi had to cover her mouth to hide the smug smile on her face as she chuckled. “Well then, Daddy is indeed very rich. It must be quite expensive to have a meal here!” Gu Xi let out a cold laugh. “Daddy, since you’re so well off, why haven’t you been giving me any living expenses for the past year or so?” Gu Xi suddenly asked and looked at Gu Tianxiang in confusion. Gu Tianxiang was taken aback for a moment but soon replied in a kindly tone, “Hehe, you’re already a married young woman. I’m doing this to protect your reputation. If others come to hear that you’re still using your own family’s money after getting married, how shameful would that be?”“Is that so? But you never brought me out to eat at hotels in the past…” Gu Xi muttered u
“Tsk… How intense.” Although Gu Xi had been standing outside the door, she could still hear the noise coming from inside the room. She clicked her tongue in a dramatic way and did not seem embarrassed at all to hear such sounds. “Like what you hear?” While Gu Xi listened with keen interest, a deep and low voice came from behind her. “Baby, I thought you were going back to get your bag?” The smile on Gu Xi’s face froze at once while her entire body went stiff. As she turned around to look at Xing Beiyan, she could even hear a cracking sound in her neck. “No, no, I don’t like it at all. I was just passing by. Haha, darling, I wonder why Elder Sister Xue’er is still not here yet. Never mind. I’m heading there anyway. I’ll just let her know where we are when I go and get my bag. I’ll be off then,” Gu Xi said and laughed loudly. After that, she did not wait for him to speak and ran away as quickly as possible. As Xing Beiyan glanced at her, the corner of his lips curled up a little. T
