Chapter 61 Second Uncle Treats Me to Dinner
After hearing what his father Lan Jingming said, Lan Yu felt a little sad.
If she hadn't accepted benefits from Gu Yunchi, would her father be so polite to her?
Human nature is truly the most complex and challenging thing in the world. She finally understands what it means that money makes the world go round.
Gu Yunchi noticed Lan Yu's unusual mood. They returned to the car and he started the car while asking her, "What's wrong?"
Lan Yu sniffed, suppressed the tears that were about to burst out, and replied in a muffled voice: "Nothing."
Seeing that she didn't want to talk, Gu Yunchi stopped asking and concentrated on driving, leaving her some space.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at a private restaurant.
After Gu Yunchi parked the car, he quickly went around to the other side and opened the door for Lan Yu.
Lan Yu unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car. Her emotions had almost calmed down. She smiled at Gu Yunchi, extended her hand to him, and let him lead her in.
His palms were warm. Lan Yu knew that this was due to the physical differences between men and women, but she couldn't help but think of it romantically. He seemed like a ray of sunshine appearing in her gloomy life.
Slowly warming her heart and bringing her new hope.
Maybe this is the meaning of marriage.
Two complete strangers met and got to know each other by chance and formed a new family together.
Maybe they will give birth to new life in the future.
This is how human beings reproduce and thrive, over and over again.
The receptionist led them into a room where Gu Qingdong and Song Wanrou were already there.
Seeing them come in, they quickly asked them to sit down.
Song Wanrou put down her phone, stood up, took the teapot and poured tea for Gu Yunchi and Lan Yu. She asked kindly, "Was there a traffic jam on the way here? It should be very congested outside at this time, right?"
Lan Yu pursed her lips and smiled, "Fortunately, there is no traffic jam along the way, thank you, Second Aunt."
After pouring the tea, Song Wanrou sat down and continued, "I've wanted to invite you two out for dinner for a long time, but Qingdong said you two were very busy with work, so I didn't disturb you."
"I heard you were transferred to the Aviation and Medical Center. It should be busier there, right?"
Lan Yu: "I just arrived, so I'm a bit busy at this stage. It will be better once the work is sorted out. But I'm used to the busy life, so it's actually not that different from the situation in the hospital before."
Song Wanrou: "That's good, but you still need to pay attention to rest. Good health is the most important thing."
Lan Yu: "Well, thank you, Second Aunt."
Gu Qingdong waved to the waiter and ordered, "Serve the food."
The waiter nodded and left.
Gu Qingdong picked up the teacup and raised it in Lan Yu's direction, "Ying Yu, Second Uncle toasts to you. Thank you for supporting Second Uncle. Director Zheng told me that you work hard every day and he is very optimistic about you."
Lan Yu picked up the teacup and clinked it with Gu Qingdong's. "Uncle, you're welcome. I have my own selfish motives. I want to experience a different working environment. Besides, the benefits you offer are so good, I definitely can't miss it."
Gu Qingdong: "That little bit of money is nothing. Second uncle will remember what you have done for our Aviation and Satellite Center. In the future, second uncle will find another opportunity to repay you."
Lan Yu: "Second uncle, you really don't have to be polite to me."
The waiter pushed in a cart carrying the food, and Song Wanrou hurriedly said, "The food is here, let's eat first."
After the dishes were served, Song Wanrou took the serving chopsticks to help Lan Yu pick up the dishes, "Come on, Yu Yu, eat more. This private restaurant is opened by one of my sisters. See if the taste suits your taste."
"And Yunchi, you should eat more too. Are you still flying domestic routes recently?"
Gu Yunchi: "Yes, Second Aunt, we should all be flying domestic routes this year."
Song Wanrou: "That's fine. After getting married, I can't live like before. No matter how busy I am, I have to spend some time with my family."
Gu Yunchi looked at Lan Yu, who was eating with her head down, and said with a smile, "Did you hear what Second Aunt said?"
Lan Yu raised his head and glared at him: "Childish."
Gu Qingdong and Song Wanrou were stunned when they heard this.
The smile on Gu Yunchi's lips deepened, and he turned around and jokingly accused Gu Qingdong: "This is all my second uncle's fault. If my second uncle hadn't asked my wife to go to the Aviation and Satellite Center to help, my wife wouldn't have stayed away from home."
"Second Aunt, my wife now eats and sleeps at the Aviation and Medical Center. It was me who went there to catch her today."
Gu Qingdong looked up and laughed, "It's my second uncle's fault. This is indeed my second uncle's fault."
Song Wanrou breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the couple with a smile, and the doubts in her heart also dissipated.
She had always suspected that Gu Yunchi and Lan Yu's marriage was a fake one, but she was unsure of Gu Yunchi's motives.
Gu Yunchi was raised by her, and she loved him as much as her own son, so after hearing the news that Gu Yunchi was getting married, she pestered her husband to invite Gu Yunchi and Lan Yu to have dinner together.
After dinner, Song Wanrou and her husband saw the guests off and stuffed the fruit snacks they brought into Gu Yunchi's car.
Let Lan Yu take it to the Aviation and Health Center to enjoy with his colleagues.
Lan Yu was surprised at Song Wanrou's thoughtfulness and consideration, and was also worried that she had changed to a new unit and needed to build good relationships with her colleagues.
After watching Gu Yunchi and Lan Yu leave, Gu Qingdong turned to Song Wanrou and asked: "Are you relieved now? I told you, their marriage is not a fake one. Yunchi would not do that kind of thing, and there is no need to do that."
"I think it's good that Yunchi has met a wife who can hold him. Maybe in the future, we will have to rely on Yuyu's help to let Yunchi return to work in Anyuan Group."
"It would be great if they could have a baby as soon as possible," Song Wanrou said softly.
Gu Qingdong: "Why are you in such a hurry? They have such a good relationship, it's only a matter of time before they have a child, so don't worry about it."
Song Wanrou glared, "Yun Chi is the child I raised, how can I not worry about him? Do you see me worrying about others? I tell you, if Yuyu is pregnant, you must tell me the first time."
Gu Qingdong wondered, "Why? What are you going to do?"
Song Wanrou: "What else can I do? I treat Yun Chi as my own son, so his child is my grandson, right? Then I will be the child's grandmother, and I have to prepare clothes, shoes, socks and other things for the child."
Gu Qingdong: "It's not like she doesn't have a grandmother. Don't say anything nonsense. If Yun Chi's mother knew that you were competing with her for the identity of her grandmother, she might be unhappy."
Song Wanrou: "She won't. She will remarry soon. When Yuyu is in confinement after childbirth, I will take care of her."
Gu Qingdong raised his eyebrows, "That's not necessarily true. I heard that she broke up with Lu Jialiang and has moved back to her parents' home."
Song Wanrou was surprised: "Why? Wasn't their relationship pretty good? Why did they break up suddenly?"
Gu Qingdong: "So what if they have a good relationship? Lu Jialiang's daughter is not a pushover. No matter how good Shen Aiying's temper is, there will be times when she can't stand it anymore. Everyone has a bottom line."
Song Wanrou felt sad for Shen Aiying, but she also felt that Shen Aiying's approach was correct. "Yeah, if it were me, I wouldn't be willing to compromise. I'm already this old, there's no need to be someone's stepmother and suffer."
Gu Qingdong: "That's right. Although the Shen family is not as wealthy as the Lu family, it is not bad either. Moreover, the Shen family loves Shen Aiying. There is really no need for her to marry into the Lu family and suffer."
Song Wanrou thought for a moment and asked Gu Qingdong, "By the way, have you sent anyone to investigate Lan Yu's family? Any news?"
