Chapter 69: Marriage with the Lu Family
Gu Qinghui's old face turned black and purple with shame and anger. When he came to his senses, Lan Yu had already left.
He cursed Lan Yu and turned back to the office.
When he pushed the door open and went in, he saw his wife Fang Lin sitting on the sofa and was scared. "When did you come? Why was there no sound? I will be scared to death by you sooner or later."
Fang Lin looked at his flushed face and asked, "You drank alcohol again at noon? Didn't the doctor tell you that your liver isn't in good condition and you should drink less? Can't you control yourself? If something happens to your body, what will happen to me and the two children?"
"What should I do? How old are you? Do you still want me to support you?" Gu Qinghui said angrily.
Fang Lin frowned. "Are you angry? What's wrong? Did you encounter any problems at work?"
Gu Qinghui didn't want to say too much to Fang Lin, for fear that she would gossip about him everywhere, and if it got back to his father's ears, he would be scolded again.
He just couldn't understand why his father hated him and his wife and children so much.
No matter how hard he tried, the old man just didn't appreciate it.
Among the three brothers, the old man favors the second brother the most, and is okay with the third brother, but he just doesn't like him.
Nine times out of ten, whenever two people talk, they end up arguing.
But the old man liked Gu Yunchi very much and once hinted that he wanted Gu Yunchi to take over.
However, due to the emotional disputes between Gu Qinghui and his ex-wife, Gu Yunchi has been at odds with his father since he was a child.
The father and son were like enemies. He told Gu Yunchi to go east, but Gu Yunchi insisted on going west.
He told him to take the position of heir, but Gu Yunchi insisted on becoming a pilot and flying planes for others.
In Gu Qinghui's eyes, there is no difference between flying an airplane and driving a taxi.
They are all lowly service industries.
What kind of family are they, the Gu family? How could they do such a menial job?
Gu Qinghui completely fell out with his son because of this. After a big fight between the father and son, Gu Yunchi cut off contact with him.
The more Gu Qinghui thought about it, the angrier he became. Not only did his son become a pilot, but he also married a doctor.
Thinking of this, Gu Qinghui turned to Fang Lin and asked, "Have you seen the daughter of the Lu family recently?"
Fang Lin shook her head. "No, I haven't seen her for a while. Maybe I'm sad. I thought she could marry into our family, but Yun Chi suddenly married a doctor without saying anything. Don't you think this is a slap in the face?"
"I don't know what Yun Chi was thinking. He gave up such a good young lady and actually went to find a doctor. I think his rebellious character is inherited from his mother. Maybe his mother is behind it."
Gu Qinghui wondered, "What is she doing? What is her purpose?"
Fang Lin: "To get revenge on you. She hates you so much, and she knows you want Yun Chi to be the heir to this family, so she's deliberately going against you to get revenge on you and see you suffer. What could be more satisfying than getting revenge on you like this?"
Gu Qinghui seemed to be awakened and slapped the armrest of the sofa, "Hmph, this bitch, this is indeed something she can do. When I meet her one day, I will definitely give her a good scolding."
Fang Lin's eyes flashed with the joy of a successful scheme, but she quickly suppressed it and changed the subject, "Yun Xi will be returning to China soon. Have you decided what to do with her in the company?"
Gu Qinghui then remembered that his daughter had graduated. "Let's wait for her to come back and ask for her opinion. As for Yun Yi's marriage, I should think carefully about it. Yun Chi is already married, and he is only one year younger than Yun Chi, so it's worth considering."
"Do you want Yun Yi to meet the daughter of the Lu family?"
After hearing this, Fang Lin smiled and said, "I didn't expect that you and I thought the same thing. In fact, I have wanted to tell you for a long time that if Yun Yi and the Lu family are allowed to marry, then the Lu family can become an ally of you and Yun Yi."
"My mother-in-law likes the girl from the Lu family so much. If Yunyi marries that girl, my mother-in-law will definitely support Yunyi. In the future, I can ask my mother-in-law to say a few good words for Yunyi in front of my father-in-law."
Gu Qinghui thought about it and it made sense. He couldn't control Gu Yunchi, but his second son still listened to him.
If it really doesn't work, you can support the second son to be the heir.
Compared with the eldest brother, the second child is not even close in ability, so he needs to be encouraged to work harder.
Gu Qinghui: "Then you can arrange it. Contact the Gu family and make an appointment for the two children to meet each other. If there is no problem with both children, you can hold an engagement party first."
"Okay, I'll contact Mrs. Lu this afternoon to arrange a time for the two children," Fang Lin replied happily. "Then do you want to inform your mother about this first?"
Gu Qinghui: "Don't mention it yet. What if it doesn't work out? You should think before you do anything. Don't spread everything everywhere. In the end, you will be criticized and laughed at. Also, don't come to the company unless you have something to do."
"The old man warned you last time not to meet with the company's shareholders. How come you don't know how to avoid it? Why do you have to run into the old man's gun?"
Fang Lin pouted and said, "I'm just trying to win allies for you and Yun Yi."
Gu Qinghui: "You can try another approach. For example, invite the wives of shareholders to have tea or treat them to beauty treatments. They will definitely thank you and tell their husbands about it when they get home. Isn't it the same thing?"
"I know," Fang Lin replied pretending to be obedient, and deliberately flattered him, "Husband, you are the best. I will listen to you... By the way, there is one more thing. I almost forgot about the main thing."
Gu Qinghui was impatient. "What's the matter?"
Fang Lin knew he was getting impatient, so she cut to the chase. "I heard that Lan was transferred by the Second Brother to the Aviation and Medical Center as deputy director. Is that true? What does the Second Brother want to do? Does he really want to bring Yun Chi and his wife against us?"
Gu Qinghui snorted coldly: "Isn't it obvious? The second son's son only knows how to play racing all day long. He is a hopeless loser. Of course the second son has to find someone to help him."
"Yun Chi grew up with him, so of course he has to find Yun Chi to help him. It's your fault. If you had been nicer to Yun Chi, Yun Chi wouldn't have gone to live with the second brother."
Fang Lin curled her lips and said, "How could I have known at that time that the old man liked Yunchi so much? If I had known, I would have treated Yunchi as my own son and would never have let him go to the second brother's house."
Gu Qinghui: "Okay, what's the point of saying this now? You should urge your son to work harder and try to win the approval of the old man and the old lady. Maybe things will turn around."
"Everything is unknown now. If we can marry into the Lu family, we will have a better chance of success."
Fang Lin: "I understand. It's lunch time now. I'll call Mrs. Lu at four in the afternoon. Forget it, I'd better go to her beauty salon in person. Talking to her in person will show our sincerity."
-
Fang Lin calculated the time accurately, left home at 3:30, and arrived at the beauty salon opened by Bai Xiuhe at 4 o'clock.
When the receptionist saw her coming, she quickly ran to the door to greet her. "Mrs. Gu, long time no see. You haven't been here for a long time. Did you go to another beauty salon?"
Fang Lin waved her hand. "Hey, don't mention it. Something happened at home recently, something ugly, so let's not talk about it. Is your Dean Bai here? I need to talk to her about something. Is it convenient?"
