If Gu Ying has taken a liking to Wang Ye, it's because she wants to use Wang Ye to get closer to Lu Fan...

So, while it's true that Old Master Gu's move pushed Gu Ying to the Wang family and Wang Ye, it was more accurate to say that he resolved this romantic entanglement for Lu Fan.

To some extent, Jiang Manyue should thank Grandpa Gu.

Upon thinking about it, Jiang Manyue was speechless and quickly banished the thought from her mind.

Grandpa Gu stopped there, not in a hurry to discuss future cooperation with Lu Fan at the Wang family's house.

But for Lu Fan, he was willing to sacrifice his own granddaughter.

With such determination, if Lu Fan continues to evade cooperation with the Gu family, the Gu family might also suffer the consequences of Old Master Gu's ruthless betrayal.

So they chatted for a few minutes and then went their separate ways.

Grandpa Gu was warmly received by the Wang family, while Lu Fan and Jiang Manyue were driven home by A Yong.

On the way, Ah Yong told him about General Manager Li's matter:

“I recognized him, but he didn’t recognize me. I thought this guy was being slow and didn’t seem to have any skills, so I helped him put the thing on Wang Ye’s body.”

"I only met that Gu Ying today, but she was very alert and attracted a lot of attention in the crowd. Later, she disappeared for a while without me knowing where she went."

Lu Fan and Jiang Manyue's expressions were hard to describe.

Presumably, the time when A Yong mentioned Gu Ying disappeared was the time when Gu Ying was talking to Old Master Gu.

Jiang Manyue pondered for a moment and said:

"Now that Gu Ying and Wang Ye are engaged, they are like a terminal and an execution terminal."

"Gu Ying will direct Wang Ye to do some things, and the listening device is on Wang Ye. It's quite good."

Lu Fan added:

"Moreover, Wang Ye will not obediently listen; he will have his own little tricks up his sleeve. Especially now that he has secured a marriage alliance with the Gu family, the Wang family values ​​him even more and will entrust him with many things."

So Ah Yong's compromise became the best choice.

It was a blessing in disguise.

Speaking of Gu Ying again, while lamenting that her cleverness backfired, Lu Fan found it amusing:

"I'm afraid Mr. Li will be very upset."

Seeing Jiang Manyue and A Yong looking at him curiously, Lu Fan said:

"He still doesn't know that it was A-Yong who used the equipment. When he finds out that he not only failed to complete the task but also lost the equipment, he will probably be on tenterhooks for a long time, wary of me asking him questions."

Jiang Manyue has never had any sympathy for those who dare to betray:

"It's good to be worried and afraid, but I'm afraid he'll take it upon himself to try and make amends."

"With his brains, he'll only hurt himself and others."

Lu Fan hadn't initially thought of this, but after Jiang Manyue's reminder, he could only remember it and find time to give President Li another dressing down as soon as possible.

"Fortunately, Gu Ying is probably busy dealing with the engagement right now, so she won't bother us again anytime soon."

Jiang Manyue, however, had many concerns about the Gu family's attitude:

"Given how ruthless Old Master Gu is to even harm his own granddaughter, it seems that future collaborations will be difficult to avoid."

"With Gu Ying gone, who was of no use, the next person Old Master Gu will send will probably not be easy to deal with."

Lu Fan already has Old Master Huang as a ticking time bomb, who knows when he'll explode. Add to that Old Master Gu and the Gu family, and it's like having so many lice that they don't feel the itch anymore.

"Cooperation should naturally be about achieving a win-win situation."

"If you want to get involved in our company's affairs because of this, that's absolutely impossible."

If all else fails, they continue to instigate Old Huang to fight.

The Gu family has now made its presence known in the open, and he doesn't believe that Old Master Huang will remain completely silent.

After returning home, the couple chatted for a while about the marriage alliance between the Wang and Gu families.

Jiang Manyue, overcome with jealousy, couldn't help but tease:

"Honestly, I've never seen you talk about this before they got engaged. What, do you just like this kind of thing?"

Lu Fan laughed in anger, then flipped over and pressed down on Jiang Manyue.

Gu Ying is indeed a beautiful woman, and her family background is also quite good.

But all of this appears to Jiang Manyue.

They're not even worthy of carrying her shoes.

Lu Fan was only thinking about his family. Jiang Manyue's teasing made him instantly wide awake. He tossed and turned until dawn before finally falling asleep in Jiang Manyue's arms.

Early the next morning.

Jiang Manyue woke up from her sleep very early.

Looking at Lu Fan sleeping soundly beside her, seemingly oblivious to everything, she couldn't help but feel a playful urge and reached out to pinch his nose.

An unusual feeling quickly woke Lu Fan from his deep sleep. Seeing Jiang Manyue's prank, he couldn't help but pounce on her again:

"You woke up so early? I think you're still not tired enough." He said, and was about to hug his wife and continue their battle.

Jiang Manyue was startled by him, quickly grabbed her pajamas, jumped out of bed, and scolded Lu Fan:

"You rascal, I have meetings all day today."

Jiang Manyue felt sore all over, otherwise she wouldn't have been so angry and wanted to play a prank on Lu Fan.

After exchanging a few playful words, Jiang Manyue went to wash up. Once she was dressed and had done her makeup, she instructed Lu Fan:

"I'll be back very late tonight. If you come back early, remember to spend time with the children."

Lu Fan agreed and pulled his wife into another deep kiss.
