Chapter 177

Two days had passed since Chu Jiran went to the hospital. Gu Yeze returned to the Gu’s house for dinner as ordered by Grandma Gu.

“Yeze, it’s been a while since you got divorced.” Grandma Gu paused and then said, “Now it’s time for you to choose a new fiancée.”

Cliché again…

Hearing this, Gu Yeze frowned, as if he was entangled with something. Gu Yeze said with impatience.

“Now that crisis of our family is over, you don’t need to take care of my private life anymore.”

It seemed that Grandma Gu had already anticipated Gu Yeze’s attitude for a long time. Grandma Gu was not in a hurry at all. She just took a sip of tea quietly and said indifferently.

“As a member of a well-known family, you should have the consciousness of treating your marriage as a must. Do you still need me to teach you these things?”

“You don’t need to say anymore. Your unmarried wives will come to see you this afternoon. Get ready.”

Without waiting for Gu Yeze’s answer, Grandma Gu decided directly for Gu Yeze. And the other family members present were all silent and didn’t dare to say a single word.

After all, although Grandma Gu was no longer the leader of the family, she was also the most powerful person in the family. Even Gu Yeze should respect her so much.

Since Grandma Gu was so tough, Gu Yeze naturally couldn’t reject it.

Gu Yelin looked at Grandma Gu and Gu Yeze on the side stealthily. He was planning to make a fuss about Gu Yeze’s marriage and let Gu Yeze give up the position of the leader of the family.

God knew that Grandma Gu first blocked his way. How partial Grandma Gu was!

How could Gu Yeze not know Grandma Gu’s mind, but this time he didn’t refute it, or he didn’t intend to refute it anymore. Because Bai Weijin…she had already…

A meal just passed like this, and it was soon afternoon. With a knock on the door, Gu Yeze sighed slightly in his heart.

Que sera, sera.

“This is Gu’s family, you are?”

When the person came in, Gu Yeze was shocked. ‘How could it be her? Didn’t she go abroad? Why is she here?’

The person was exactly Tan Xin who said that she was going abroad. Accurately speaking, it was not only Tan Xin who came here, but also a young girl with a lacrimal mole at the corner of her eye, as if she were coming out of a painting.

“Yeze, they are Tan Xin and Ji Yun.” Grandma Gu came out and said, “They are your fiancée that I carefully selected.”

As for Tan Xin, Gu Yeze was not surprise. They were friends since childhood, and Tan’s family was also as powerful as Gu’s. Although Tan Xin’s presence was unexpected, Gu Yeze was acceptable.

But who was this… Ji Yun?

Ji Yun seemed to have seen the doubts in Gu Yeze’s eyes, she evoked a shallow smile and introduced herself, “Hello, Mr. Gu, I am Ji Yun.”

“My father is Ji Yongkang.”

Hearing this name, Gu Yeze couldn’t help gasping. Ji Yongkang! It was a name familiar to every businessman.

He was now the second in command in politics. Whenever there was any good project, aristocratic families should try to establish a good relationship with this real deal at the first time. If we could marry into this family…

Gu Yeze’s pupils shrank slightly, and he looked at Grandma Gu with disbelief. ‘Does Grandma Gu want our family to move into politics?’

What a big ambition!

Since they entered the Gu’s house, Gu Yeze’s eyes never removed from Ji Yun’s body, making Tan Xin very uncomfortable.

It was impossible for Gu Yeze to be interested in women. The only explanation was that the power of Ji Yun’s family was greater than that of Tan Xin’s.

Tan Xin clenched up her fist helplessly and looked at Ji Yun with a malice look. Why… even though Bai Weijin was gone, he still refused to choose me?

As if Ji Yun was aware of Tan Xin’s eyes, she turned to Tan Xin with a gentle smile, which was very dazzling.

How could it be…? It was just a common smile, but it made Tan Xin’s whole body completely stiff. Tan Xin suddenly felt that she couldn’t see through the woman in front of her.

In the next second, Tan Xin was frightened by her own thoughts.

‘How is that possible? Is there anyone in this world who is more horrible than me?’

For a time, Tan Xin’s thoughts were endless. But no matter what she thought, the banquet of Gu’s family had just begun.

Grandma Gu graciously invited the two in and entertained them, but she privately called Gu Yeze to say something quietly.

“Yeze, if it were you, how should you choose? Both of these two women could help our family.”

When seeing Tan Xin come back, Gu Yeze had no more illusions about Bai Weijin. ‘Since it’s impossible to get a normal marriage, then I should use this marriage to maximize my own interests.’

“If our family wants to scale new heights in the business circle, I will choose Tan Xin. After all, with the help of her family, it is inevitable to have wind at our back.”

“But my inner choice is more inclined to Ji Yun, for she represents the infinite possibilities of our family in the future. Which means our achievements may be not just limited to business circle.”

Hearing Gu Yeze’s analysis, Grandma Gu nodded with satisfaction. He deserved to be the heir of Gu’s family. Because Gu Yeze not only analyzed the problem thoroughly, but also met Grandma Gu’s own ideas.

“The future of our family is in your hands.” Grandma Gu sighed and said, “I’m old and can only give you some suggestions.”

“Come on.”

Seeing Grandma Gu’s fading back, Gu Yeze somehow thought of Bai Weijin. If he could, Gu Yeze didn’t want to get a divorce.

‘But why do you just refuse to give up on that child?’

An indescribable pain flashed in Gu Yeze’s eyes, and finally he took a deep breath, hiding his thoughts deeply in his heart.

Bai Weijin, who was lying in the ward, seemed to feel Gu Yeze’s decision, and couldn’t help but twitch in her heart. ‘What happened to myself?’

‘Is the mood of the parturient changing in every second?’

‘Bai Weijin, you should calm down for the good of your baby.’

Bai Weijin kept meditating in her heart, trying to suppress the surging pain in her heart, but the result was in vain.

Tears quietly shed from the corner of Bai Weijin’s eyes and gradually soaked her clothes. The bitterness in Bai Weijin’s mouth was unspeakable.

“Weijin, what’s wrong with you?”

Bai Weijin had no idea when Chu Jiran appeared beside her. Chu Jiran asked with concern.

Looking at Chu Jiran, Bai Weijin managed to squeeze a smile from the corner of her mouth and pretended to be calm, “Nothing. I just missed my father suddenly.”

Bai Weijin’s fragile figure made Chu Jiran’s mood more and more heavy. ‘How can you not bashful to say your decision to her?’

Chu Jiran lost in thought.
