Chapter 122 Eldest Brother
Lu Fengqing woke up naturally and sat blankly on the bed, recalling the words she had said to Gu Suixing before he left. She belatedly blushed.
Whether she marries him or not makes no difference to her. They are too familiar with each other, and they live together now. They have done countless things, both appropriate and inappropriate, together.
To put it bluntly, marriage law can guarantee marital property, but it cannot guarantee marital happiness, a man's physical and emotional well-being, or the absolute inheritance rights of children born in wedlock. For her, the difference between having this certificate and not having it is merely a matter of status. She doesn't covet Gu Suixing's things; even without them, she can still live a carefree life.
But it's different for Rui Rui.
If she can reunite with Rui Rui and marry him, Rui Rui will be their legitimate child.
Although children born out of wedlock and children born in wedlock now enjoy the same inheritance rights, children born in wedlock are always more legitimate, and at least their background will not be used as a stain to attack them.
There was no other way before, but now that there is, we naturally want to give Rui Rui the best.
However, after they got married, that scoundrel became her husband...
Lu Fengqing patted her warm face and got up to wash.
In the world of fame and fortune, one cannot be careless in social interactions. The Zhang family's full moon celebration is the day after tomorrow. Since Lu Fenghe said he would give a gift, then a red envelope must be given, and the gift itself cannot be lacking.
While there was still time, Lu Fengqing went out to pick out a few gifts, but she had no experience buying things for such a young child, so she had to call Dou Meijuan to ask.
My older brother is bringing Rui Rui back next week. This apartment is just right for one person, and also suitable for two people. Any more than that would make it crowded. Knowing that jerk's domineering nature, he might not be willing to let Rui Rui sleep with them... If all else fails, we'll just have to kick the older one out. Anyway, she absolutely can't bear to part with the younger one.
I don't know if things are ready at Xingheli yet. I promised Rui Rui I'd get him a children's room. She's already ordered the turtle wallpaper, and she's also picked out the children's bed, table and chairs, sheets and blankets. I'll have someone pick them up and deliver them to Xingheli later.
After mentally reviewing the tasks she needed to complete over the next two days, Lu Fengqing finished the breakfast Fang Ning had brought and then went out with Fang Ning.

The meeting hall of the Gu family was quiet.
Everyone held their breath, silently watching the man in the head seat.
The man's expression was indifferent, revealing neither joy nor anger, but the more indifferent he was, the more nervous the board members became.
Leaving aside what this young master did at the Gu family back then, they haven't forgotten the sweeping changes he made on his first day as CEO.
This project was negotiated by Mr. Gu, and he was the perfect person to take charge of it. However, last night they received a notice requiring them to change the person in charge of the project.
Changing the person in charge at the last minute is not a good thing for the project's progress. Although they are all shareholders of Gu's Group, the decision-making power of Gu's Group has always been in the hands of Gu Jinhong. Even if they object to his decisions, it is useless.
However, they didn't intend to object. They were told that it didn't matter who was in charge, as long as money came in in the end.
Sigh, everything was fine a while ago, I don't know how this young master suddenly offended his grandfather.
In the silence, Gu Suixing spoke up: "I have no objection."
Last night, when I confronted my father, he anticipated things would come to this point, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
Even after all these years, the old man is still as domineering as ever, and as decisive as ever in his actions.
On his way back to the president's office from the conference room, Gu Suixing remained calm, as if he wasn't the one who had lost control of the project and been publicly humiliated at the board meeting.
Assistant Fang asked in a low voice, "Are you still going to the 10:30 meeting?"
There's a meeting at 10:30 about the West District project. Gu Suixing is currently the main person in charge of this project, so naturally he has to go, but right now...
Gu Suixing: "I'm not going."
Assistant Fang: "That dinner with Deputy Director Qin that night..."
Gu Suixing sneered, "Since the old man wants Gu Jingdong to take charge, let him go."
Whether it's overseeing the project's progress or dealing with those cunning old foxes, it's not an easy job. In the end, the money won't end up in his pocket, so letting go of this project might not be a bad thing for him.
Gu Suixing turned slightly and patted Assistant Fang's shoulder, "This is just the beginning."
Based on his understanding of the old man, the old man would not only take the project away from him, but if he still insisted on his own opinion and refused to give in, the old man would also gradually strip him of his power, make him a CEO in name only, and in the end, he might even replace him with someone else.
However, none of this mattered to Gu Suixing, as he had never intended to own the Gu family business anyway.
For him, the right to inherit the Gu family business was less important than coaxing Old Master Lu to marry his granddaughter to him.
It's better now that he has more free time; he has more time to plan his personal life's major events.
Back in the CEO's office, Gu Suixing asked, "How long will it take for the flowers we ordered from overseas to arrive?"
Assistant Fang adjusted his glasses. "We plan to bring it back to China with the ring you ordered. The balloons and candles have also been ordered and are temporarily stored in the new company's office."
Gu Suixing nodded in satisfaction. "She likes crowded and lively places, so the location will be... Go talk to the person in charge of the shopping center and clear out the plaza that night."
Assistant Fang's eyelids twitched.
The shopping mall plaza... there are so many people there, especially on weekend nights. If you were to propose there, it might even trend on social media and become the talk of the town.
Others might feel embarrassed, but judging from Miss Lu's consistent way of doing things, she might actually like it.
So Assistant Fang suggested: "Fireworks are not allowed in the city center, but we can book those advertising screens over there."
Gu Suixing raised an eyebrow. "Okay."
Assistant Fang: "Send your confession to Ms. Lu."
Gu Suixing: "..."
-
The news of the change of person in charge of the Xicheng District project spread like wildfire through every corner of the Gu Group.
Gu Suixing was already a focus of attention in the company, and after this incident, almost everyone was discussing it all morning.
Lu Fenghe doesn't like gossip, let alone gossip about his partner company. He didn't pay attention at first, until he saw that Gu Suixing didn't attend the meeting and heard Gu Jingdong say that he would be in full charge of the project starting today.
When they went downstairs for lunch, Lu Feng ignored the stares of others and went straight to sit down opposite Gu Suixing.
Gu Suixing greeted him with a smile, as if they were old friends: "Big Brother."
"..." Who is your older brother?
Lu Feng was always amiable, but he couldn't give Gu Suixing a kind look. He asked coldly, "What's going on?"
This was a perfect opportunity to curry favor with her brother-in-law. Gu Suixing's eyes flickered slightly, and she suddenly sighed, "Nothing much, I just didn't listen to my father-in-law's arrangements, which made him angry, and he's planning to kick me out of the house."
Lu Feng frowned, not thinking about how Gu Suixing had angered Gu Jinhong, but just thinking that changing the person in charge of the project was not a good thing for him. As far as he was concerned, Gu Suixing was much easier to talk to than Gu Jingdong.
Gu Jingdong, that person...
A look of disgust flashed across Lu Fenghe's eyes.
Gu Suixing glanced at him calmly and asked slowly, "What are you thinking about, brother?"
"It's nothing." Lu Fenghe said indifferently, looking at Gu Suixing with an unfriendly expression. "Also, don't call me big brother."
Gu Suixing looked innocent. "You are Niannian's older brother, so naturally you are my older brother too. We will be family sooner or later, so it doesn't matter whether I call you that sooner or later."
"..." Who's family with you?
Lu Fenghe didn't want to waste his breath; every word he heard only fueled his anger, so he simply got up and sat down elsewhere.
Of all the people his sister could have fallen for, she had to pick such a shameless guy.
