In her previous life, on the day Xu Ruochu married Gu Yixiao, the unapproachable and wealthiest man she had loved for ten years, he uncovered the truth behind his ex-girlfriend's tragic death. ...
Chapter 172 Blind Date
Jiang Limei felt that Madam Gu only knew how to take the overall situation into consideration and lie with her eyes open.
It was obviously because of his daughter's matter that he hated her again.
In the past, she was a little disgusted with second marriages, and even after giving birth to Gu Ziyang, Mrs. Gu never stopped doing this. Later, as the mother and daughter got along sincerely, she gradually changed her mind and treated them better.
Recently, because of the incident between Yixiao and Chuchu, he has changed his face again.
On the other hand, Gu Yixiao understood his grandmother's actions very clearly.
The old man felt that he couldn't handle the problem from his side, so he started to take action against Jiang Limei.
As long as Jiang Limei is convinced, Xu Ruochu can be taken away by then.
In the old lady's view, Jiang Limei now has a biological son with Gu Leiting.
This person always sides with his own children.
Even though she had raised Xu Ruochu for more than ten years, it was only because of their good relationship. Xu Ruochu was a little girl, how could she compare to the one who crawled out of her belly.
The feeling is different.
After Mrs. Gu ran over, she started saying some ambiguous words.
But now, they really can't figure it out clearly.
"Mom, you're here."
Jiang Limei and Mrs. Gu greeted them warmly.
After all, you shouldn't hit someone who smiles at you. What's more, the old lady came to celebrate her birthday, so she should at least show some hospitality.
Of course, it’s also for Gu Lei Ting’s sake.
It was because Mrs. Gu was very dissatisfied with her marriage and even asked the hospital to check whether she had given birth to a child.
Please, so what if she gave birth before?
She wished that Xu Ruchu, such a well-behaved child, was her own daughter.
This way she wouldn't have to worry about whether Xu Ruchu would be taken away by her biological parents one day. She had always been worried about that.
Now Gu Lei Ting even offered to help her find her biological parents. She was so angry that she scolded Gu Lei Ting in the middle of the night.
But today is Jiang Limei's birthday after all, so Madam Gu didn't act too excessively.
And she had other plans.
Now this is just to make their relationship better.
"Okay, don't think too much about some things."
While they were talking, they were thinking about something else.
Xu Ruochu saw Gu Yixiao's stunned expression and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
"Grandma, come here. Why do you look so unhappy?"
Gu Yixiao chuckled. "Don't you know what she's here for? She didn't like Second Aunt very much before, but now she's taking the initiative to attend Second Aunt's birthday party. In the past, she just casually gave some gifts and that was it. But this time she came in person..."
Although they didn't say it out loud, they all knew it in their hearts.
"I know. I just think we don't need to go too far for now. After all, grandma is old. People say she's childish. As long as it's not a big deal, she can do whatever she wants."
Xu Ruochu didn't mean to completely cooperate with Madam Gu's ideas, but she felt that as long as it was not a serious matter, it would be fine to give in.
After all, it has come to this.
"I understand. If it weren't for what happened last time, I wouldn't be so angry."
What made Gu Yixiao most angry was that Old Madam Gu arranged for people he hated to contact him again and again.
She even wanted to replace Xu Ruchu's position in her heart.
If the person you like can be replaced at will, then it means you don't like him at all.
It's not even love.
"Okay, don't be angry. Today is my mother's birthday. Let's go celebrate for her together. Today, our main function is to make her happy. As for the other things, we can discuss them privately."
The Gu family was all about prestige, so they definitely wouldn't do anything serious today. At least in front of so many outsiders, Madam Gu wouldn't cause any major trouble.
But Xu Ruchu never expected that Madam Gu was determined to make everyone uncomfortable today.
The purpose of her coming all the way here was to make them feel aggrieved.
It's just that no one realizes this yet.
"Second son's wife, you've worked really hard these past few years. I came here today specifically to celebrate with you and also to connect you with your daughter."
As she was speaking, a young man appeared behind Madam Gu.
After he appeared on the stage, Gu Yixiao's expression changed instantly.
"This is Mr. Lin from Yuncheng. He's about to inherit the family business and is a rare talent. I suggest we give him a try. Of course, as an old man, I'm just the matchmaker. Whether these young people are good or not is another matter. But if it's possible, we should get engaged as soon as possible."
Lin Yunsheng looked at the scene in front of him and just smiled calmly at everyone.
He was also very shocked when he suddenly received a call from Mrs. Gu.
What surprised him even more was that Madam Gu actually arranged a blind date for him with the eldest daughter of Gu Leiting's family.
He was far away in Yuncheng, so of course he didn't know what was happening here.
But he had also heard some things about Xu Ruchu.
The most important thing is that Xu Ruochu is not Gu Leiting’s biological daughter at all, but an adopted daughter. It seems a bit too much to marry her to him.
After all, he was born into a wealthy family.
But Madam Gu said that as long as Xu Ruochu could be married, a lot of cooperation would be given to the Gu Group.
He was still very happy to have such benefits.
It’s not a problem if you just marry her as a decoration.
"Hello, my name is Lin Yunsheng. Madam Gu asked me to go on a blind date with you. But don't be too nervous. We can just treat each other as ordinary friends."
Lin Yunsheng also noticed that his family was very unhappy about this sudden blind date.
After all, it is indeed very abrupt to suddenly send a man to a blind date at someone's mother's birthday party.
Jiang Limei felt extremely bad after seeing this scene.
She was extremely annoyed, as Old Madam Gu clearly knew that Xu Ruochu and Gu Yixiao were about to be together.
But in the end, it seems that Mrs. Gu is crazy trying to separate the two of them.
It's amazing that they can do such a thing.
It makes me angry just thinking about it.
At this moment, Jiang Limei wanted to curse loudly.
"Hello, Mr. Lin."
Xu Ruochu just put on a very polite smile.
She knew this kind of situation and she absolutely couldn't make a fuss today.
Otherwise, it would make my mother's birthday miserable, but she still has some patience.
Besides, Madam Gu did not say anything definite, she just wanted to have some contact, not really get married.
"Would you like to chat?"
Xu Ruochu smiled calmly: "Today is my mother's birthday party. I'm afraid I have to accompany my mother to entertain the guests. I don't have much time to chat with Mr. Lin. I'm really sorry."
"Then let's exchange contact information."
Seeing this, Xu Ruchu could only take out his cell phone.
Just as he was about to add, Gu Yixiao walked over.
"Xiaochu, your mother wants to introduce you to a friend, so go over there first."
Gu Yixiao directly and forcefully interrupted their contact and asked Xu Ruchu to leave.
