Gu Chen was once a big shot at the Transmigration Bureau. After experiencing 999 different worlds, he finally got to retire.
He chose to return to a peaceful life and be an ordinary, unremark...
Chapter 59
"What's with that expression on your face?" Seeing Li Jiashu's strange expression, his friend couldn't help but say proudly, "Could it be that I was right?"
Li Jiashu was speechless for a moment. He didn't know how to respond. His sister-in-law's identity couldn't be exposed from him.
Hmm? Can't be exposed? This isn't exposed. He's not Gu Zhongmao's son, nor is he a spy. His sister-in-law comes from the famous Gu family. Perfect!
The friend continued: "If you don't say anything, I must have said it right."
So Li Jiashu continued to remain silent and ignore him, and just stood up to pour coffee.
His friend followed him closely and said, "Wow, such an awesome person is actually your sister-in-law. Do you know what the outside world says? The investor of the Yun family can be called a Midas Touch. And the headhunter who helped you negotiate, Mr. Gu, is still looking for him... They are actually the same person. When Mr. Li took over the group, he was not as brilliant as your sister-in-law."
Li Jiashu finally spoke. He sighed and said, "Alas, in fact, you can't say she is my sister-in-law."
"You finally admitted it!" the friend said, "But why? Didn't people say that Mr. Li and Mr. Gu were married?"
Li Jiashu spread his hands and said, "We are married, but... my sister-in-law's family hasn't agreed yet." The country hasn't even agreed, but his brother has already made it a fait accompli.
The friend was surprised: "Mr. Li just acted first and reported later?" Although Li Tingqin is Li Jiashu's elder brother, he is already a legendary big man among their younger generation. It is surprising that he would do such a thing in marriage and love.
Li Jiashu nodded meaningfully and said, "Yes, I now suspect that my brother will be assassinated by my sister-in-law's family." When my sister-in-law was working, she must have had many secret agent friends, right? My sister-in-law is so good at helping my second sister make movies, so her colleagues must be equally awesome. His brother is not a good person every day, and I am really worried about his safety.
The friend's eyes widened and he asked, "Is the Gu family so overbearing?"
Li Jiashu shook his head and continued to sigh: "Alas, you can't blame her family for being overbearing. After all, it was my brother who pursued her first."
"Oh, I see!" The friend nodded to show that he understood. "That's actually similar to what Aunt Liang said..."
These two people are both very strong at a young age, and neither of them is unworthy of the other, but the main reason is that Mr. Li was the first to abduct Mr. Gu from the Gu family, so he is naturally inferior, is that what you mean? So even Aunt Liang has to be soft-hearted.
Li Jiashu took a big sip of coffee, sat down and continued to read the documents, and said impatiently: "Alright, alright, I didn't pay attention to what my mother said because I was working overtime every day. Anyway, everything is based on what my mother said. Don't bother me!"
The friend put his arm around Li Jiashu's shoulders and said, "Can I tell others about this?"
Then he vowed, "Don't worry, I am still loyal. I will never let anyone else bother you in the future. If others have any questions, I will help you explain them, okay?"
Li Jiashu waved his hand without even looking up and said, "You can go out and talk nonsense as you please."
He doesn't want to write these anymore! This work, day after day, can never be finished.
…
Li Jiashu was very happy working overtime these days, as finally no one came to bother him.
However, there are a lot of messy comments from the outside world.
At first, Li Tingqin built a garden on a large scale and got married for love and kept a beautiful woman in a luxurious house; then Liang Qing was Versailles and said frankly how satisfied he was with this young Mr. Gu; without stopping, Gu Zhongmao, the head of the Gu family, announced to the public that this was his son.
In the end, the second son of the Li family finally revealed the truth: Mr. Li’s partner, Mr. Gu, was from the legendary famous Gu family!
The Yun family’s investment was his work. At the same time, he was also the person who impressed all parties during the negotiations - Mr. Gu.
No wonder, no wonder!
No wonder Liang Qing was so satisfied, and no wonder the second young master of the Li family was afraid that President Li would be "assassinated".
This person is indeed a brilliant person who is on par with President Li.
I heard that the Li family and the Gu family are old friends? Are Mr. Li and Mr. Gu old friends?
Such an outstanding junior was just abducted by President Li to Yiyuan, and even got a marriage certificate. The Gu family must be so angry that their teeth are about to break, and it is reasonable for them to want to "assassinate" President Li.
Here, Gu Zhongmao was so angry that his teeth were about to break: "Okay, very good. In order to draw a clear line between ourselves and our Gu family, the Li family can even make up such a lie?" He was not a person who was easily angered, but in the past few days, he really couldn't understand the world. His own son could become not his own. It was too ridiculous!
Gu Kang also didn't quite understand. How could the Li family dare to make up such a blatant lie when there was such a living person? Whoever's son was, he was his son. This couldn't be faked.
He said, "What Li Jiashu said about Xiao Chen using his pocket money to invest in Yun's should be true. After all, Xiao Chen had no job after graduation and no source of income, so the only thing he could have gotten was pocket money from the Li family. But I don't think it's possible that his pocket money could reach 5 million a month. The most reasonable explanation should be... the Li family asked him to hold shares in Yun's on their behalf."
"Why would the Li family do this? Could it be that... in order to get rid of our family, they deliberately created a fake identity for Xiao Chen?"
After thinking deeply for a while, Gu Zhongmao shook his head: "But a negotiation and an investment, just these two things, can make the outside world believe in the amazing Mr. Gu? This is too easy to expose."
Gu Kang also felt that there was some conspiracy and said, "Father, have you noticed a problem? There are so many rumors in the outside world, but few people have seen Xiao Chen so far. Since Xiao Chen got married, we have never seen him again. It's really weird..."
"Now, I have some doubts...Li Tingqin's love is fake, and exploitation is real."
"It's hard to say anything without seeing him." Gu Zhongmao shook his head and said, "Well, the third old man of the Li family will be celebrating his 80th birthday in a week. This is also a big event for the Li family. Let's see if Xiaochen will go with Li Tingqin."
Gu Kang agreed, "Yes, this kind of thing must be confronted face to face. As long as they are face to face, Xiao Chen will not deny his father and brothers. At that time, the rumors will be broken by themselves."
…
In a side hall of Yi Garden, Li Tingqin was leaning on the sofa with a laptop on his knees, having a video conference.
On the side, several designers who came to the store were surrounding Gu Chen, showing him catalogs, communicating with him, and confirming some styles he wanted.
The meeting came to an end, and Li Tingqin raised his eyes and said, "Ah Chen, will you accompany me to my uncle's birthday party next Wednesday?"
Gu Chen thought of the invitation letter he had "worked so hard" to get back, closed the catalog on his lap, and asked, "Is Mr. Li asking or hoping?"
"Of course I hope so." Li Tingqin gave a clear answer, "The outside world also needs to understand our relationship." Recently, there have been too many rumors from the outside world.
Gu Chen raised his eyebrows: "So Mr. Li wants to assert his sovereignty?"
Li Tingqin looked at Gu Chen seriously and said, "You can say that. If you are willing, Ah Chen."
Gu Chen joked, "Okay, I heard that it's already being spread out there that you're not worthy of me?"
Li Tingqin smiled indifferently and said, "Aren't you trying hard?"
After receiving Gu Chen's reply, Li Tingqin turned around and instructed several designers: "Make a few more dresses, one of which needs to be expedited, and it will be needed next week. In addition, my casual clothes for this season must match those of Mr. Gu..."
Gu Chen sighed and said, "So Mr. Li specially hired someone to make clothes for me today. Is he waiting here? I rarely wear suits on a daily basis, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to match them with my regular clothes."
The designer said, "Mr. Gu, don't worry. Even suits and sportswear can be made into couple outfits. For the same series of clothes, we will try to use the same color scheme and match the accessories, such as Mr. Li's tie and the pattern on the sportswear..."
Gu Chen: “…” Is Mr. Li planning to turn their daily clothes into couple outfits?
The designer continued, "We have already gotten a preliminary understanding of your preferences. The design drawings will be released one after another, and we will ask for your opinions then. Now, please stand up and we will measure your size."
Gu Chen stood up, and the designer was about to start working with a tape measure in hand.
Seeing that this was a lady, Li Tingqin closed his laptop, stood up and said, "Let me do it."
Gu Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at him.
Li Tingqin remained calm, and very seriously extended his hand to the designer, saying, "I'll measure, you take notes."
The designer smiled in surprise and understanding, handed him the tape measure, and said, "Okay, you come here, you come here."
Gu Chen had nothing to be embarrassed about and opened his hands naturally.
Li Tingqin measured very carefully, stroking his arm with his fingertips, straightening the tape measure, breathing behind Gu Chen's ear, and said, "Arm span 188, shoulder width 54."
He put the tape measure around his arm and said, "Arm circumference 32."
Then he went around the chest, as if he was hugging Gu Chen from behind. He tightened the tape measure and said, "Chest circumference 98."
Gu Chen turned his head and asked him in a low voice: "Mr. Li, has our recent fitness been effective?"
Gu Chen tilted his head, and his lips almost brushed against his cheek. Li Tingqin's breathing stagnated, and he whispered, "It's perfect."
Li Tingqin wrapped the tape measure around the waist and tightened it, then said, "It's just that the waist is still a little thin." It turned out that he could hug her so easily when he hugged her.
Pulling the tape measure down again, Li Tingqin felt Gu Chen's perfect proportions again and said, "Leg length is 120."
Li Tingqin continued, and the tape measure went around Gu Chen's legs. He was about to report: "Thigh circumference..."
Gu Chen finally held his hand, pinched the tape measure, measured his thigh and hip circumference, and reported to the designer, saying, "It's OK, you can go back first."
"Okay, Mr. Gu, we'll contact you after the drawings are ready." The designers held back their laughter and left the side hall. These two people almost kissed each other while measuring the size!
Gu Chen smiled and said, "Boss Li, are you measuring it for real or fake?"
Li Tingqin explained seriously: "Ah Chen, I didn't mean to offend you. I just felt that it was inappropriate to ask that lady to do it."
But he also said frankly: "It's just that... when I was measuring, I did have some offensive thoughts..."
"Okay." Gu Chen accepted it and nodded, "Next time Mr. Li wants to touch you, can you do it when there are fewer people around?"
Li Tingqin: “Ahem…” He really didn’t think so.
