Chapter 155 Paying Tribute to My Biological Mother
Gu Beixiao was somewhat surprised when he saw Lu Jingxiao. If he remembered correctly, Lu Jingxiao had an appointment with Luo Zhiwei.
No matter what, her mother is still Weiwei's mother, and since her mother has passed away, Weiwei should go and visit her, both out of kindness and reason.
There must be a reason for their separation; he already has some clues and plans to talk to Weiwei about it.
He didn't expect Lu Jingxiao to come, and even dressed so formally. He didn't know what to say.
"Mr. Lu, I don't think I invited you. You've come uninvited?"
The funniest thing was that Lu Jingxiao looked serious, but there was also a hint of smugness in his expression. I don't know what he was showing off.
Lu Jingxiao tilted his head back arrogantly and snorted, "Weiwei invited me here. She is Weiwei's biological mother, so of course I have to pay her a visit."
Weiwei invited me!
My baby invited me!
Gu Beixiao: "..."
No, what are you so smug about?
Luo Zhiwei stepped forward to smooth things over, explaining softly, "I asked him to come along, I..."
Gu Beixiao interrupted her, his voice gentle: "I understand. I didn't say President Lu couldn't come. Since you invited him, it's fine..."
After catching up, the group went into the living room, where Gu Youran sprawled on the sofa, thoroughly enjoying herself.
When Luo Zhiwei saw her, her eyes lit up: "Ranran."
Gu Youran immediately turned around, then jumped up in alarm and straightened her clothes.
It wasn't that she was slightly concerned about her image; rather, Lu Jingxiao had come, after all, and he was her client. She had to be mindful of her image, otherwise... what if she didn't consider working with him again next time?
After she felt there was no problem, she quickly walked to Luo Zhiwei's side and whispered in her ear, "Weiwei, why did you bring Lu Jingxiao with you?"
"I... his illness hasn't fully recovered yet, and I'm worried about him, so I had to bring him along."
That's a reasonable excuse, I suppose.
Gu Youran pursed her lips. She had heard that Lu Jingxiao had fallen ill, so she hadn't gone to see Weiwei these past few days. There were some things that couldn't be clearly explained on WeChat, so she had been holding back.
Seeing that the two of them seemed to be about to catch up, Gu Beixiao stopped them, saying, "Alright, let's go to the cemetery to pay our respects first. We can talk about it when we get back."
Gu Youran went along too. She hadn't visited her aunt in a long time, so she took this opportunity to visit her.
**
The cemetery, the grave of Lin Yuehan.
Lin Yuehan is Gu Beixiao's mother and Luo Zhiwei's biological mother, whom she has never met.
Gu Beixiao placed the flowers in his hand in front of the grave, then squatted down in front of the tombstone. His voice was very gentle, as if he had found some satisfaction: "Mom, I've come to see you. I also brought other people with me this time. You should know them, right?"
"Luo Zhiwei, she's my sister, my own sister. Why didn't you tell me this before? I only knew you had regrets, but I didn't know your regret was about your sister..."
When Luo Zhiwei saw the photo on the tombstone, she couldn't help but ask, "Is this photo... from when he was young?"
"Yes, Mom says she loves beauty, so her photos have to be pretty pictures from when she was young."
When Gu Beixiao mentioned his mother, his heart softened, and his eyes were filled with longing.
Luo Zhiwei frowned: "I think I've seen her before, in a photo..."
It looks like my mother's photo album?
She needs to go back to the Luo family villa.
Gu Beixiao was taken aback. He immediately stood up: "You've seen him before?"
"I'm not sure, but I think I've seen it before. I need to go home and confirm."
Luo Zhiwei stepped forward, closing the distance between her and Lin Yuehan. She took a deep breath, as if preparing herself mentally: "I am Luo Zhiwei. My older brother and I have done a paternity test, and we are siblings. So, I'll be your mother and daughter. Nice to meet you."
Luo Zhiwei silently prayed in her heart: Mother, the man beside me is the man I love most in this life, my first choice forever. I hurt him before, so please, Mother and Mom, bless him from heaven.
Mother, you should have met with Mom by now, right? There must be so many things you haven't told us...
Luo Zhiwei sadly raised her hand and touched the tombstone and photo: "Mother, when you meet me, you must support each other. My brother and I will be fine. As for... Gu Hancheng, who had a relationship with you, he is a fool. I don't want to acknowledge him. I hope you have no objection."
Gu Beixiao added, "I don't plan to acknowledge him either. I have a mother, that's enough. As for a father, I don't need him, there's no need."
Lu Jingxiao didn't expect him to say that. After all... the children of the Gu family all have shares. If Gu Beixiao doesn't go back, wouldn't that mean giving up?
"Gu Beixiao, you should think this through carefully. Every child in the Gu family owns 5% of the shares. Except for the heirs who have more shares, every child in the Gu family has their own shares from the moment they reach adulthood... Even 5% of the Gu family's shares will earn more than your current company..."
Lu Jingxiao doesn't like to interfere with other people's decisions; he simply tells them what he knows.
Weiwei may not have the Gu family, but she has him. Lu's shares are more valuable than Gu's, and he is more valuable than every member of the Gu family. Weiwei may not have the Gu family, but she has him.
Gu Beixiao... has nothing.
"Then should I take Weiwei back to the Gu family?"
Lu Jingxiao's face darkened instantly. What was wrong with this guy? He was going to contradict him again!
He snorted arrogantly, "Whether you come back or not is up to you. Anyway, Weiwei has me, and she'll definitely be doing better than you."
Gu Beixiao: "..."
Does he care?
Gu Beixiao completely ignored Lu Jingxiao and instead looked at Gu Youran, pulling her to his side: "Mom, Youran has come to see you too."
"Originally, You Ran and I were half-siblings, but now... You Ran and I are not related. However... I still want to treat her like my own sister. Mom, can You Ran call you godmother?"
Gu Youran turned to look at Gu Beixiao in surprise. She hadn't expected her brother to say that, and her eyes welled up with tears: "Brother..."
Gu Beixiao pretended to be relaxed and said, "I've been thinking about this for the past few days. What should I do if we're not biological siblings anymore? I don't want to lose you as my sister. I want to be your brother. You Ran, would you still like to be my sister?"
Gu Youran nodded frantically: "Yes, yes, I'm a hundred times willing!"
Fearing that Gu Beixiao might change his mind, she immediately turned to look at Lin Yuehan's photo: "Godmother, from now on I'm your daughter!"
Gu Youran was very excited. She hadn't expected that her older brother would actually consider her needs.
Although she had been staying at Gu Beixiao's house for the past few days, she knew very well that she no longer had any standing or right to call him "brother," even though he was the brother she had chosen herself.
She didn't want to lose her brother.
Luo Zhiwei was also very touched. She didn't expect Gu Beixiao to think of these things. She smiled and held Gu Youran's hand: "From now on, we are really sisters. Call me sister."
You didn't expect that, did you?
Despite being the boss of a company and taking care of Luo Zhiwei, Gu Youran is actually the youngest; she's a year younger than Weiwei.
Gu Youran, shamelessly, clung to Luo Zhiwei, her best friend, and whined, "Sister~~"
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
She knew that Ranran wouldn't think there was anything wrong with it, or even be shameless.
Lu Jingxiao pushed Gu Youran away, looked at Gu Beixiao, and said arrogantly, "Isn't it my turn to pay respects to our mother?"
Gu Beixiao: "???"
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
