Chapter 240 I won't steal your thunder.

In the hospital,

Gu Youran came to visit Gu Hancheng. After exchanging a few simple pleasantries, she immediately jumped into Luo Zhiwei's arms and started whimpering and rubbing against her.

"Weiwei, I was so scared yesterday, someone bullied me."

She was drunk, but she hadn't blacked out yet; at least, she remembered what happened in the bar.

As for why I didn't remember it when I got home, it's probably because... I didn't want to remember.

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiwei became extremely nervous and asked with concern, "Are you alright? Were you bullied? Which bar was it? I'll have Ah Xiao get revenge for you."

Gu Youran suddenly smiled brightly; she knew that her daughter would never abandon her.

Before she could even speak, Luo Zhiwei dialed Lu Jingxiao's number and briefly explained the situation: "Jingxiao, help me find those people who bullied Ranran. I won't let them get away with this!"

She felt most at ease leaving this matter to Lu Jingxiao.

Gu Hancheng looked at Gu Youran with concern, and seeing how good her relationship with her daughter was, he was somewhat envious.

“You Ran, now that this has happened, don’t be afraid. With A Xiao and Yu Lin here, they will stand up for you. And Bei Xiao, the brother you’ve called for so many years, he will also stand up for you.”

Gu Hancheng's mind was somewhat active.

Perhaps because his daughter had accepted him, he was overjoyed and couldn't stop thinking about everything and wanting everything.

Gu Youran nodded slightly to him in gratitude, speaking respectfully, "Thank you, Uncle, I understand."

With Weiwei around, Weiwei is her greatest source of confidence.

Regardless of whether Weiwei has the background of the Lu and Gu families, Weiwei has always been her biggest support.

They nestled together, supporting each other.

Now that Weiwei has found a better home, she can be even more unrestrained.

Just thinking about it makes her want to burst into laughter.

Gu Hancheng smiled faintly. He suddenly looked at the two children in front of him and sincerely suggested, "How about this, Youran, since you and Weiwei have been good friends for so many years, you should be good friends for life. How about this, I'll recognize you as my goddaughter, and you'll be a member of the Gu family from now on."

As for the Gu family, they are a distant relative with no connection whatsoever to their Gu family.

Since they have no feelings for Gu Youran at all, then... why not just let her be Gu Hancheng's goddaughter?

That way, there will be two daughters in the family, and Weiwei can keep each other company.

Luo Zhiwei looked up in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"You...you really want Ranran to become the Gu family's goddaughter?"

Gu Hancheng raised his hand, as if he wanted to joke with his daughter, but after thinking for a moment, he replied seriously, "Of course, I'm also afraid that if I don't make a move soon, your second aunt will snatch it away."

I'll save the jokes with my daughter for later.

Let's talk about it after their relationship progresses further.

Gu Youran also looked at Gu Hancheng in astonishment. Why did she feel like a pie had fallen into her lap?

this...

“Uncle, this...this is not appropriate. Weiwei and I are best friends, and we will be for life. We don’t need these things to maintain this relationship.”

She was certainly happy, at least it proved that someone cared about her, but... she didn't want to use these things to prove how good her relationship with Weiwei was.

Gu Hancheng quickly said, "You're overthinking it. Although there's definitely a slight factor involved, you're a good girl with impeccable character and abilities. I'm afraid it would be unfair to you if I took you as my goddaughter."

Gu Youran then realized that her uncle didn't seem to be joking; it seemed like he was serious.

"Uncle, are you...are you serious?"

"nature."

Luo Zhiwei immediately nodded in agreement: "I think this is great. I'm very happy. Dad, Ranran's parents... I hope we can treat her better."

"Of course, from now on you two will both be my daughters."

Gu Hancheng pondered for a moment, then said softly, "I'm going to hold a family reunion banquet for you and Bei Xiao in a couple of days, let's have another ceremony at the same time." He looked at Gu Youran: "Youran, do you agree?"

"good!"

From then on, she had a family.

**

After receiving Luo Zhiwei's call, Lu Jingxiao paused for only a few seconds before directly dialing Li Huaijin's number.

"Are all the people who hurt Gu Youran with you?"

"I knew it."

"Okay, you handle it. My baby said we can't let those people get away with this."

"Second brother, you've fallen for Gu Youran, haven't you?"

"You're just being stubborn."

"Okay, I'll be there in a bit."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Jingxiao got up and left the office.

Before he could take two steps outside, Wei Mingfeng blocked Lu Jingxiao's path.

He held a stack of contracts, all laid out and prepared, his expression businesslike: "Mr. Lu, these are urgent documents that need to be processed today, you..."

Lu Jingxiao: "..."

He had a bit of a headache and couldn't help but 'kindly' remind him, "Wei Mingfeng, didn't you see I was about to go out?"

Wei Mingfeng: "......"

I'm here because I saw you; otherwise, I'd be in your office right now.

"President, these documents are really urgent and won't take much time. Why don't you... take care of them first?"

Wei Mingfeng continued to assure him, "It'll only take about an hour. You don't have any other plans this afternoon, so you can have a date with the president's wife..."

Lu Jingxiao fell silent instantly.

He and Weiwei haven't had a proper date yet.

Wei Mingfeng is very meticulous in his work. Even if he leaves now, he will probably still follow him to the Li family.

Since Li Huaijin was there to avenge Gu Youran, and this was his chance to prove himself, he... wouldn't compete. He would just tell Weiwei later.

After finishing his work, he could easily go on a date with Weiwei.

After thinking it over, Lu Jingxiao reluctantly hummed in agreement: "Send it back to the office, I'll look at it now."

When Wei Mingfeng heard this answer, his heart finally settled down.

This kind of suffering cannot be endured alone.

So he took out his phone and started sending messages in the group chat.

[President Lu is in a good mood today. Bring up any difficult proposals quickly so we can get to the bottom of this, otherwise...]

[If you miss today, it's uncertain when President Lu will be in a good mood again.]

His message quickly received a response.

【Ahhhh, I'm coming right now, right now!】

I've been waiting for Mr. Lu to be in a good mood for so long, and finally it's here!

[Thanks to Assistant Wei for providing the information; I'll organize the documents immediately.]

Those who responded to Wei Mingfeng were all high-ranking members of the Lu Group, who could report directly to Lu Jingxiao.

Before long, several senior executives entered Lu Jingxiao's office one after another. Lu's expression was acceptable for the first two, without much fluctuation.

Starting with the third supervisor who went in, Lu Jingxiao's patience was completely worn out, and he showed no friendly expression whatsoever.

"roll--"

That shout of "Get out!" revealed just how impatient he was.

Assistant Wei, come out here! Come out here!

I got really yelled at, you have to make it up to me.

[Me too. They said President Lu was in a good mood today, but it's clearly like he's been hit by a firecracker.]

I don't even know if I'm lucky or unlucky. I was the third one to go in, and Mr. Lu was already clearly getting impatient...

Wei Mingfeng pushed up glasses that weren't actually on his face.

[You guys were just unlucky. The first two people who went in came out fine.]

[...]

She can't bear this kind of workplace horror alone.

After finishing his work, Lu Jingxiao couldn't wait to leave his office and quickly got into the elevator.

Wei Mingfeng: "......"

What just flew by?
