Chapter 123 - 123 Back to the Countryside
123 Back to the Countryside
After Chen Youjun fainted, Gu Qingming left the rest to others.
Because of this troublesome matter, Gu Qingming and her cousins who originally planned to stroll around were no longer in the mood to do so. They found a place to rest and drank afternoon tea before returning!
After returning to the Gu family, Grandpa Gu, Father Gu, and the others already knew what had happened at Eternal Mall.
Grandpa Gu said fiercely, “Hmph, since she dared to bully my Gu family, she would have to realize her mistake through experience! Granddaughter, well done!”
Gu Jianguo also nodded and said, “He can’t protect his family and even let his family bully him. Hmph, no matter how much money he earns, it’s useless”.
“That woman thought that she could bully others just because she had money, but she didn’t know that there was always someone better. Now that she was being bullied, she deserved it.”
“As for Chen Youjun, once he failed to restrain his family, they were like mad dogs, biting people everywhere.”
“Second, he wanted to morally coerce without distinguishing between right and wrong. It was really detestable.”
“Third, he’s not capable enough. The company was bought over by us because of the law of the jungle.”
Speaking of this person, Shi Hangyu said angrily, “This person is even more detestable than his wife and children. His wife and children bully others, but they only bully them openly.
“But this person directly stabbed the heart with a soft knife. If it weren’t for the fact that Sister handled the matter cleanly and beautifully, she would definitely be criticized for being narrow-minded and cold-hearted.”
Shi Yaoqing nodded in agreement. “So, it serves him right that his company is gone. He didn’t want to take responsibility and evaded the crucial point. Does he really think he’s the boss?”
Gu Qingming smiled and said, “Originally, Chen Youjun beat up his wife the moment he arrived. I thought he could pull his wife and son over and apologize to us sincerely. If they apologized sincerely, I could let them go.”
“However, this Chen Youjun is self-righteous. He wants to arm-twist me in public. Hmph, what a joke!”
She had been taught business matters by her father since she was young. Even some of the company’s projects were handled by her. It could be said that she was even more wily than Chen Youjun.
Since she had already given the order, she would naturally consider the series of consequences that would result from this order. As a veteran in the business world, how could she let others have a hold on her?
If Chen Youjun heard these words, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.
He was too smart for his own good.
“That’s right. We won’t take the initiative to bully others.” Grandpa Gu nodded. “But we definitely won’t let others bully us!”
Then, he looked at Shi Hangyu and the others and said with a smile, “Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu, don’t feel burdened. This is how things are in the business world. One moment, you might be glorious, but the next moment, you might be bullied.”
Shi Hangyu and the others nodded and replied, “Grandpa Gu, we know.”
At this moment, Grandma Gu smiled and said, “You didn’t have a good time this afternoon. Let’s go out after dinner. It’ll be more lively tonight.”
Shi Hangyu shook his head and refused, “Grandma Gu, we won’t go. We want to have a good rest tonight and go home tomorrow morning.”
At this point, he was afraid that Grandma Gu would misunderstand, so he immediately explained, “Grandma Gu, we’ve been thinking about the farm work at home. It’s currently the busy season for farming, so it’s difficult to hire people.”
At this moment, Zhou Xiaoyu smiled and said, “Grandma Gu, why don’t we come over after we finish our work? We’ll definitely have a good time!”
Grandma Gu immediately smiled and said, “Alright then. Since you’ve decided, I won’t persuade you anymore.
“Have a good rest tonight. We’ll be on our way tomorrow morning. The journey is long, so you have to be energetic.
“I’ll go to the kitchen now and get them to prepare some snacks you brought along tomorrow.”
Mrs. Gu smiled and said, “Mom, sit down. I’ll go!”
Shi Hangyu and the others did not refuse.
However, Shi Hangyu and the others looked at Gu Qingming. So did Grandpa Gu and the others.
Gu Qingming was puzzled.
She asked in confusion, “What’s wrong? Why are you all looking at me like that?”
Shi Hangyu scratched his head and asked, “Sister, we’ll go back tomorrow morning. You… are you staying at home or following us?”
Gu Qingming said matter-of-factly, “Of course, we’re together.”
Grandpa Gu and his family were speechless.
Didn’t this heartless girl miss home at all?
Shi Hangyu and the others were speechless.
They were so happy that their sister was coming along with them.
At this moment, Grandpa Gu slapped his thigh and said, “Old lady, get ready. Let’s go to the in-laws’ place tomorrow.”
He decided now that he would go wherever his granddaughter was.
His precious granddaughter was pregnant with his great-grandchild.
He wanted to watch the child come into this world with his own eyes.
Grandma Gu was stunned for a moment before a smile appeared on her face. “We haven’t seen our in-laws in a long time. I miss them. Since we have company this time, let’s go together. I’ll go prepare now.”
Gu Jianguo reacted and said worriedly, “Dad, Mom, you’re already so old. This journey is so long. Can you bear it? Why don’t I apply for a helicopter and send you over directly to save you trouble?”
When Grandpa Gu heard this, his face darkened.
“Gu Jianguo, who are you looking down on? Your mother and I have been traveling overseas these days. The journey is much further than going to our in-laws’ house. Why don’t you hire a helicopter to send us here and there? Besides, your mother and I are healthy and are not inferior to those young people. Hmph!” Grandpa Gu said sternly.
“No… no, Dad, that’s not what I meant!” Gu Jianguo was reprimanded by his biological father and immediately defended himself. “I… I was just worried about your health. Is there a need to be so angry?”
Grandpa Gu snorted. “Am I angry? Am I angry?”
He asked Gu Jianguo the first question and Gu Qingming the second.
Gu Jianguo said gloomily, “No, you’re not angry.”
Gu Qingming replied readily, “Grandpa, you’re not angry. You’re just a little arrogant. Dad is already used to it!”
Shi Hangyu and the others were speechless.
This was obviously the tone of coaxing a child.
Grandpa Gu snorted. “Did you hear that? My granddaughter said that I’m not angry. I’m just a little loud.”
Childish!
Shi Hangyu was speechless
No wonder people said that the older one was, the younger they would be!
They had to be coaxed!
…
The next day, at four in the morning, the sky was still dark.
The people in the Gu family villa had already started to get busy.
“Dad, Mom, I’ll get the bodyguards to send you there together. Let Master Li drive. He’s a good driver. You’ll feel more comfortable sitting there, right?”
Gu Jianguo persuaded his parents, who insisted on riding in the same car as the children.
“No need! We’re going to the in-laws’ house. What’s with the bodyguards and drivers? Are we going to show off or something? Who are you looking down on?!”
“No, Dad, that’s not what I meant!” Gu Jianguo explained weakly. “I…”
