Chapter 59: Adultery 26

Gu Rong did not wait a month, but submitted his resignation immediately.

Although the Gu family intended to suppress the news that the two children were mistakenly taken away, the thing that is most difficult to cover up in the world is gossip, so the news gradually leaked out. In addition, Gu Rong had not come to the company and even directly handed in his resignation, so the news became even more difficult to cover up.

There are certainly not many people who dare to talk about it openly, but it cannot stop the gossip and communication in private.

Even Gu Yanchen could sense the restless atmosphere, and even Qi Si sometimes hesitated to speak.

Truth will come out sooner or later, and this matter needs to be stated.

Regarding Gu Rong's resignation, Gu Yanchen had not yet given a clear response, so Gu Chengyuan called Gu Rong back first.

"grandfather."

In the study, Gu Chengyuan and Gu Rong faced each other alone.

Gu Chengyuan snorted softly: "You still remember that I am your grandfather."

Gu Rong smiled and said, "You are my grandfather at all times. Even if you don't recognize me as your grandson, you are still my grandfather."

"I think you don't want to recognize me as your grandfather."

Gu Chengyuan sat across from him on the sofa, pushing the snacks towards Gu Rong. He couldn't help but sigh, "You moved out like that? You've been in the Gu family for over twenty years. How could you leave so easily? Do you know how mad Yan Chen was when you left so suddenly? Not only did he lash out at Zhe Yan and Zhe Wan when he came back, but Song Yi almost lost his job. I heard there was a big commotion at the Tang family too, and now the relationship is strained. Jun Yue even admitted that he hasn't been to the Tang family once since he came back."

Gu Rong's eyes flashed with surprise: "I didn't know that."

Then he jokingly said, "Grandpa, I didn't order my brother to do this."

"Of course it can't be you."

Gu Chengyuan took a sip of tea and said, "But I really wronged you."

"I know Yan Chen did this out of concern for the injustice you've endured over the past twenty years. He told me he would tell Jun Yue everything you've endured and let him decide how to treat the Gu and Tang families, including himself. We've ignored you for too long. We're all sorry for you, for letting you suffer for over twenty years."

"Grandpa, you can't say that—"

Gu Rong paused, lowered his eyes, and looked at the document that Gu Chengyuan was pushing towards him.

"This is......"

“It’s a share transfer.”

Gu Chengyuan said, "Take it. I was thinking of giving it to you, but it was just a little while ago."

Gu Rong picked up the document, opened it and looked through it: "But this seems to be a bit too much... Grandpa, this is not appropriate."

"There's nothing inappropriate about it. Giving you so many shares is all within a reasonable range."

"Big brother, does he know?"

Gu Chengyuan laughed and said, "You should ask Yan Chen about this. He won't let me say it."

Hearing this, Gu Rong immediately understood.

I'm afraid that Gu Chengyuan's decision to give him shares now also involved Gu Yanchen. He even gave him so many shares... I don't know who gave them to him. After all, we can roughly infer how much shares Gu Rong can hold. As a result, the shares Gu Chengyuan gave him now are obviously a bit excessive. Add to that what Gu Chengyuan said just now...

"If I accept this, then there's no point in me resigning." Gu Rong put down the documents and said.

Gu Chengyuan shook his head: "If you are unwilling to accept this, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to resign."

Gu Rong felt helpless.

"grandfather......"

"Don't call me grandpa. You can't refuse the responsibility of being an elder. If you want to refuse, don't call me grandpa."

""

Gu Chengyuan changed the subject immediately: "Are you planning to live with your parents?"

Gu Rong could only put the matter aside for the time being, nodded, and said: "I have been helping out at the clinic recently, and I want to spend more time with them."

“That’s what should be done.”

Gu Chengyuan nodded in agreement: "Your parents are both very good people. They have taught Jun Yue very well."

"It's just so good that not only does one of them not want to leave, but now the other one doesn't want to come back either."

Gu Rong touched the tip of his nose and thought that if Xu Junyue didn't want to come back, he would have to ask Gu Yanchen.

He didn't know that Gu Yanchen had done so many things behind his back.

"In a few days, the Gu family is planning to hold a banquet, and you and Jun Yue must be present." Gu Chengyuan spoke again.

Gu Rong nodded: "I understand, Grandpa."

"Don't think too much. You are still the child of the Gu family. This will not change. I will also make this clear when the time comes."

Gu Chengyuan gave Gu Rong a reassurance, and at the same time, he looked at Gu Rong and said, "Don't let anything else happen. Who knows what Yan Chen will do."

The purpose of holding the banquet was to personally confirm the recent rumors, and at the same time to formally introduce Xu Junyue to the outside world and officially recognize Xu Junyue as a member of the Gu family.

A single stone caused a thousand ripples. I didn't expect the rumor to be true.

However, Gu Rong was also present on the day of the banquet, and from what Gu Chengyuan said, no matter whether Gu Rong was Gu Rong's biological son or not, he was still a member of the Gu family. It was not known whether this was true or just a polite remark, but the next second, Gu Chengyuan stated in front of everyone that he had transferred 8% of the original shares to Gu Rong's identity.

Almost everyone took a breath, and the expressions of Gu Zheyan, Gu Zhewan and others changed suddenly.

That’s Gu’s original stock!

And Gu Rong actually got 8%?!

Why?

Gu Rong didn't expect that Gu Chengyuan would bring this up at this time. Even if he didn't accept it, I'm afraid that in the eyes of others, he still owned these shares.

"I really didn't expect that."

Zhong Luoyao moved closer to Gu Rong and glanced to the other side. Gu Yanchen was talking to someone with Xu Junyue.

Although Gu Rong and Xu Junyue were both the protagonists of this banquet, Xu Junyue's identity was obviously more important, so after Gu Chengyuan finished speaking, Gu Rong immediately hid in the corner. Even though many people wanted to come over to ask something more because of Gu Chengyuan's last few words, they were all avoided by Gu Rong.

Only Zhong Luoyao came over, and Gu Rong didn't find an excuse to leave.

"Where's An An? Why didn't she come?"

"Forget about this kind of occasion. I knew something big was going to happen at this party, so I deliberately didn't bring him along. Children, after all, are better off being innocent."

Zhong Luoyao shrugged: "But I didn't expect it to be such an exciting thing."

"Hasn't this been rumored for a long time?"

"I don't have time to listen to rumors and gossip when I'm taking care of the kids."

Zhong Luoyao glanced at Gu Rong and said, "But what I didn't expect was that the Gu family would actually express their attitude in this way. Hey, your two elders are both looking very unhappy right now."

"That's good."

Gu Rong nodded: "For this reason, it's not a loss for me to take it."

"Pfft, you're not afraid of someone hearing this."

Gu Rong shrugged: "It doesn't matter. They must hate me to death now anyway."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone pushed him on the back.

The wine glass that Gu Rong was holding was directly poured onto Zhong Luoyao.

When he looked back, he saw Song Yunzhou, the son of his nominal aunt, staring at him viciously.

Gu Rong couldn't help but feel embarrassed. It turned out that one shouldn't talk about others behind their backs.

He turned his head and looked at Zhong Luoyao again. He was suddenly frightened by the wine splashing on him and almost screamed.

Gu Rong said, "I'll take you to deal with it."

The banquet was held in the annex of the Gu family's old house, and Gu Rong was familiar with this place.

But just as he was about to take Zhong Luoyao away, he was pulled back by Song Yunzhou again.

"Don't leave!"

Song Yunzhou's face turned grim: "Do you know that my dad is about to lose his job because of you?"

Gu Rong nodded: "I have heard this before, my grandfather told me."

"Grandpa—"

Song Yunzhou gritted his teeth: "What do you want to do by moving grandpa out? Do you think you are still a biological child of the Gu family? You are not even as good as me now!"

"yes."

Gu Rong sighed, looking very embarrassed: "At least you don't have to worry about whether to take the 8% of the original shares."

"you--!"

Gu Rong pulled Song Yunzhou's hand away: "Also, what's the point of venting your grievances to me? Don't take it out on me when you don't have the courage to find the right person to vent your anger on. If you were smart, you would know that if you provoke me now, your father and your whole family will only have a harder time. Otherwise, why do you think your father lost his job?"

Song Yunzhou's expression became increasingly grim: "Gu Rong, what are you so proud of?!"

"I'm not even a biological child of the Gu family, but I'm still so valued. If it were you, wouldn't you be proud?"

Gu Rong was so angry that she almost died: "But I am very sensitive. If you continue to disrespect me, believe it or not, you won't even have the chance to work at Gu's?"

"I--"

"What are you doing?"

Gu Yanchen's voice suddenly rang out.

When they looked back, they saw Gu Yanchen walking towards them at some point, accompanied by Xu Junyue.

Xu Junyue looked at Song Yunzhou with some curiosity. He had recognized him before, so he knew Song Yunzhou's identity.

Song Yunzhou and Xu Junyue's eyes met. Just as they were about to speak, Xu Junyue quickly withdrew his gaze as if he didn't care much. Then he walked past Gu Yanchen towards Gu Rong. Then, with obvious concern in his tone, he called out to Gu Rong - "Xiao Rong, are you okay?"

Um......

After the words were spoken, there was silence for a few seconds.

Zhong Luoyao secretly smacked her lips and was no longer in a hurry to tidy up her clothes. She thought that Gu Rong hadn't said that he had a good relationship with this real young master.

How can this script be performed when the real and fake young masters have such a good relationship?

Gu Yanchen also remained silent, staring at the back of Xu Junyue's head for a few seconds.

I didn't pay attention just now. I was in such a hurry to come here that I didn't notice that Xu Junyue also came with him. Tsk.

However, compared to the two of them, Song Yunzhou was more silent.

A word of "Xiao Rong" and a greeting almost made him speechless.

How could someone with no blood relationship to the Gu family accept 8% of Gu's original shares at a banquet where they were formally introducing themselves? This is not right, is it?!

Only Gu Rong didn't think anything was wrong and shook his head at Xu Junyue: "It's okay. It's someone else who has problems."

Xu Junyue patted Gu Rong's shoulder.

They have been living under the same roof these days. How could he not know how good-tempered Gu Rong is? It must be someone else who started the trouble first.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, thinking that the Gu family was quite chaotic and Gu Rong had suffered a lot.

So Xu Junyue turned around and said, "Brother, I'll take Xiaorong and this lady away first."

Gu Yanchen: “”
