Gu Tingchen has been busy with work and the company quickly returned to normal.
During the rest time, Gu Tingchen was busy with the affairs of the orphanage. Previously, this orphan was intended to be a gift for Jiang Ranran, but after everything was prepared, Jiang Ranran could not accept him.
Standing in front of the newly built orphanage, Gu Tingchen couldn't stop feeling sad.
Lu Yuan walked over, stood behind Gu Tingchen, looked at the newly built orphanage and said, "It's not easy for you either. Are you really not going to tell Ranran? Are you planning to let the two of you misunderstand each other for the rest of your lives?"
When Gu Tingchen's company was at its lowest point, Lu Yuan helped him behind the scenes. Gu Tingchen was very grateful to Lu Yuan, so he invited Lu Yuan to visit his newly built orphanage.
Gu Tingchen sighed helplessly and smiled bitterly, "What can we do now? Madam Lin has been playing tricks behind my back. Although I have won now, they will definitely use more despicable methods next time. If I stay with Ranran, it will only hurt her."
Gu Tingchen knew very well that although everything seemed calm on the surface, it was just an illusion.
Once any accident occurs in the company, under Mrs. Lin's instigation, this accident will erupt like a flood, and the entire company will fall into crisis again.
Therefore, Gu Tingchen must keep a distance from Jiang Ranran during this period of time, at least to prevent Madam Lin from catching them.
"So you plan to live like this for the rest of your life?" Lu Yuan asked.
Lu Yuan was very clear about the relationship between the two and Gu Tingchen's good intentions. If it were to end like this, Lu Yuan would feel it was a pity, not to mention that they had a child.
"I haven't thought about these things yet, and it's not the time to think about them. I must focus all my attention on dealing with Mrs. Lin." Gu Tingchen said seriously.
As long as all the hidden dangers between the two of them are not eliminated, Gu Tingchen will not dare to tell the truth to Jiang Ranran easily.
Lu Yuan saw all of this and was secretly worried about the two of them.
After the two divorced, Lu Yuan also went to see Jiang Ranran.
Although Jiang Ranran didn't say anything on the surface, Lu Yuan could see that Jiang Ranran was very sad. Every day she was like a working machine, always busy with work without any personal feelings.
If you stay in such a depressed mood for a long time, something bad will definitely happen to you.
After thinking for a while, Lu Yuan said, "I invested in your company before, so you should thank me, right?"
Gu Tingchen nodded happily. "Of course, if it weren't for you, the company wouldn't have gotten back on track so quickly. How do you want me to thank you?"
Lu Yuan invested in Gu Tingchen as an investor, and the returns he received were actually enough, but he still said, "I don't need you to repay me in any way. Please treat me to a meal this weekend. I'll reserve the seat and send it to you then."
After saying that, Lu Yuan turned around and left. It was not until the weekend that he sent Gu Tingchen the seat he had reserved.
Although Gu Tingchen felt strange, he knew that Lu Yuan had indeed helped him a lot, so it was only right for him to treat him to a meal.
At the weekend, Gu Tingchen came to the restaurant as agreed, but he did not see Lu Yuan. He only saw Jiang Ranran sitting on the chair.
After not seeing each other for a few months, Jiang Ranran has become much thinner and no longer looks as sunny as before. Seeing Jiang Ranran like this, Gu Tingchen couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
At this moment, Jiang Ranran's eyes collided with him directly, "Why are you here?"
Jiang Ranran was invited by Lu Yuan, so she was naturally very surprised to see Gu Tingchen here.
Gu Tingchen finally recovered from his distraction. It was definitely impossible for him to turn around and leave. There was no way, Gu Tingchen had to sit down on the chair calmly.
"Long time no see, how have you been lately?"
Gu Tingchen spoke in a very unfamiliar tone.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to care about Jiang Ranran, but Gu Tingchen saw that Madam Lin’s spies were following him.
Mrs. Lin was very determined to get rid of the Gu family, and she kept sending people to follow Gu Tingchen without stopping for a moment.
"Lu Yuan asked me to come here."
Jiang Ranran's voice unconsciously became cold. The two of them were silent for a long time before Jiang Ranran took out a card from her bag.
"The three children came to your place some time ago and caused you trouble. This money is to make up for it." Jiang Ranran said very coldly.
Didn't Gu Tingchen say he was going to sue the child? Then Jiang Ranran might as well do something drastic.
"My children are still young and can understand what you are saying. So, for the sake of our past friendship, please don't pursue legal action. Let's settle this privately."
Such a sarcastic tone made Gu Tingchen frown deeply. He couldn't wait to explain something, but after seeing Mrs. Lin's eyes, Gu Tingchen still didn't say it.
After taking the card, Gu Tingchen turned and left.
Looking at Gu Tingchen's back as he turned and left, Jiang Ranran felt disheartened. Now she finally had no hope for Gu Tingchen anymore.
As soon as he left the house, Gu Tingchen called Lu Yuan and asked him, "Didn't I treat you to a meal? Where are you?"
"You went? What did you talk about?" Lu Yuan's tone was normal, and he didn't feel like he was being exposed at all.
After a long while, Gu Tingchen finally exhaled, sighed, and said, "We didn't talk about anything. Thank you for your kindness, but now is definitely not the best time for Ranran and I to meet. I won't choose to explain to Ranran at this time. You'd better not get involved."
"I was thinking the same thing..." Lu Yuan felt helpless.
Lu Yuan could understand Gu Tingchen's intentions, but the Lin family was deeply rooted and powerful. Resolving the conflict between the two families or completely eradicating the Lin family would be an extremely long task.
Did Gu Tingchen not contact Jiang Ranran during this period? No matter how deep the love between the two people was, it would fade.
"I know what you want to say, but I really can't get back together with Ranran right now. Thank you, but please stop interfering in it." Gu Tingchen said very seriously.
He could choose to continue to be with Jiang Ranran regardless of everything, and face the public opinion and future risks together. Gu Tingchen believed that Jiang Ranran would be willing to do so, but he couldn't do that.
The two of them have three children. Given the uncertainty of the future, Gu Tingchen absolutely cannot fail to plan for the future of his three children.
"I understand. I was presumptuous in this matter. I won't get involved again next time." Lu Yuan said helplessly.
Lu Yuan wanted to help, but he couldn't interfere with Gu Tingchen's own decision.
"Thank you." Gu Tingchen hung up the phone.
Before leaving, Gu Tingchen couldn't help but look back. Jiang Ranran was just sitting there in the restaurant, looking extremely lonely, with no expression and no movement.
This was the first time in such a long time that he had been able to have close contact with Jiang Ranran, but in the end he had no choice but to leave without looking back.
