Gu Mu is the secretary of Mr. Gu.
She is very capable and familiar with the company's internal and external affairs. Most importantly, she really likes Gu Yanyu.
In fact, she was already Gu Yanyu's girlfriend long before Gu Mu started working at Gu's.
However, she was able to apply for Gu's job entirely on her own strength, not through Gu Yanyu's backdoor.
It was precisely because of this that Mrs. Gu was moved.
The younger son is indeed incapable of managing the company, but he can marry a capable wife to help him manage it.
Gu's is the life's work of the old man. Unless it is absolutely necessary, Mrs. Gu really doesn't want it to be destroyed in her hands.
So with her deliberate promotion, Gu Mu and Gu Yanyu, the lovers, got married smoothly.
After the two got married, Gu Yanyu continued to immerse himself in his artistic creation, while Gu's mother took over Gu's from old lady Gu little by little.
She thought she could reap both love and career, but she didn't expect that old lady Gu trusted her on the surface, but did a series of tricks behind her back.
She made a will, indicating that after her death, all Gu's shares and all the property under her name would be inherited by her future grandsons or granddaughters. If there is more than one grandson or granddaughter, it will be divided equally among them.
Special note: only legitimate children can be inherited.
This will does protect the interests of the children born to Gu's mother, but it also damages the interests of Gu's mother herself.
Because she never expected that 60% of Gu's shares were in the hands of Mrs. Gu, while Mr. Gu only held 13%.
Even if this 13% was the second largest shareholder after Mrs. Gu, it was insignificant compared to the 60% with absolute decision-making power.
This matter was not known to Mother Gu until after Mrs. Gu passed away.
She was still pregnant at the time. When she heard the news, she was so angry that she went into premature labor and gave birth to her eldest daughter, Gu Qingqing.
Because Qingqing was a premature baby, her body was very weak. She stayed in the incubator for a month after she was born before going home.
She was the fruit of her parents' love, but because of her grandmother's actions before her death, she became a thorn in her mother's eyes.
Gu's mother had complicated feelings towards Qingqing. Her mind told her that this was her biological daughter and she should have been her closest darling.
But her emotions could not help but make her angry, thinking that Qingqing was a little devil who came to steal her property.
This feeling continued until the birth of her second child.
As Gu's mother's bedside man, Gu Yanyu could actually sense his wife's knot about the children.
He had tried to mediate, but every time he made his wife furious. Over time, the cowardly Gu Yanyu chose to remain silent.
His cowardly behavior happened to be exactly the kind that Fu Heng's father hated the most. He believed that a man who couldn't even protect his own children was not a man at all.
As a result, Fu, who had made great efforts to help Gu after the incident, eventually drifted away from Gu.
"Does mom dislike Qingqing because of money?"
Qingqing looked very calm, but Fu Heng still worriedly observed her for a long time.
He didn't stop talking for a while and talked too much about the past of the two families.
These things were the truth that Qingqing learned after she became an adult. At that time, she was already extremely disappointed with her parents. She just sneered and turned around to sign the right to use her share to her brother.
Gu Lan, who had the added shares of both siblings, took away Gu from his mother with an absolutely overwhelming advantage.
Therefore, the "graceful letting go" of Gu's mother and father was actually just a wolf running away after failing to seize power.
And Fu Heng was very suspicious.
His mother-in-law still wanted to have children at this age. Was it to make up for the lack of having children to take care of her, or... to regain power.
The will of Qingqing's grandmother clearly stated that if she had more than one legitimate grandchild, the property would be divided equally among them.
Therefore, Qingqing and Gu Lan each owned 30% of Gu's shares, and Gu's mother only had 20% in Gu's father's hands.
Thirteen percent of them were left by Grandpa Gu's son, and five percent were inherited from Uncle Gu.
Because Uncle Gu was not married when he died, and it was impossible for him to have children, so in the absence of a direct heir, the inheritance rights after his death belonged to his younger brother.
The remaining 2% was originally owned by Gu Yanyu.
As long as she had another child, Mother Gu could use this child to take 20% of the shares from Qingqing and Gu Lan.
Then she would find a way to buy some shares from other small shareholders, not much, as long as it exceeded the total of Qingqing and Gu Lan, and there was a high possibility that she could successfully regain the rights.
Unfortunately, because of a black dragon-like disease, Mother Gu's entire uterus has been removed.
She would never have a third child in her lifetime. Her original plan to seize power was aborted at the starting line. She could only look at the finish line and curse.
Her thoughts wandered.
Fu
Heng came back to his senses and was about to lower his head to say something to Qingqing, when he saw that the little guy had already turned over his belly, his little hands raised on both sides of his head in a surrender gesture, and he was snoring in his sleep.
"Little bastard, it was you who wanted to hear a story, but you left me to sleep first."
He tapped Qingqing's little nose lovingly, moved away from her wrinkled nose, lay down beside her quietly, and fell asleep too.
"Chi..."
A little bird came in from the gap in the window frame, flapped its wings and flew to Qingqing's pillow.
She tilted her head, and her pair of green eyes stared at the sleeping Qingqing quietly, with an unknown light in her eyes.
Qingqing's originally peaceful sleeping face gradually became eerie, and she seemed to fall into an unknown nightmare again, and her little hands and feet began to struggle little by little.
"Chi..."
The little bird nimbly jumped on the pillow a few times, avoiding Qingqing's unconscious little arms, and then landed on her forehead, and the tree-branch-like feet stepped right on Qingqing's eyebrows.
Looking down, a very thin silver thread was pulled out from between Qingqing's eyebrows and swallowed into the bird's mouth.
As if the nightmare had been taken away, Qingqing gradually relaxed, and a sweet smile returned to her face.
Turning over, the little guy instinctively looked for the source of heat and clung to Fu Heng's arms. Fu Heng also habitually stretched out his hand and placed it on Qingqing, as if to protect her.
"Chi..."
The little bird tilted its head and looked at the two of them sleeping. It seemed to find it meaningless, so it flapped its wings and flew away.

In the morning, it was just dawn.
"Ding Dong." The crisp doorbell rang.
"Who is it?" Yu Yu casually put on her coat, walked out of the house in her nightgown, with a sleepy face.
As soon as she opened the door, she was tightly embraced by a pair of strong arms.
"Um... Si Jin?" The familiar smell of cologne entered her nose, allowing Yu Yu to immediately recognize who the man who ran over to hug her early in the morning was.
"Don't talk, let me hold you quietly for a while."
Fu Sijian hugged Yu Yu, lowered his head and absorbed the breath from her body that made him feel at ease.
"..." Is he unhappy again?
Yu Yu hugged Fu Sijian back silently and patted his back gently soothingly.
The two of them have been together for a long time, and she can occasionally detect that something is wrong with Fu Sijian.
Occasionally, in very rare cases, he would stare at the world with a dark, indifferent, and hateful look.
It seems that at some moment in the future, once the string pulling his sanity breaks, he will completely fall into hell, turn into a demon, and bring disaster to the world.
But until now, Yu Yu has never seen this string break. Maybe it is not thick enough, but it is definitely strong enough.
"Are you free today?"
After hugging for a long time, Fu Sijin finally let go of Yu Yu.
When she looked up, he was the gentle and steady Fu Sijin again.
"I have an appointment with my college roommates to get together."
Today is Saturday, and it happened to be a holiday. The people in her dormitory said that they haven't gotten together for a long time, and asked her to go out for a gathering.
"Decline." Fu Sijin rarely made a strong request.
"No." Unfortunately, Yu Yu didn't buy it.
Seeing the man's frown, she sighed and stretched out her fingers to smooth his eyebrows one by one: "I told you not to frown all the time, it will cause wrinkles."
"You don't accompany me..." Fu Sijian changed his tactics here. His tone was very serious, but Yu Yu heard a bit of aggrieved accusation.
This man really knew where her weakness was.
"The party is in the evening. I have nothing to do during the day, so I can accompany you."
Yu Yu compromised as expected. Fu Sijian curled the corners of his lips and urged her to go upstairs to change clothes.
"Wear more clothes, no need to dress up too nicely."
Yu Yu: "..."
You dressed up brightly and sprayed perfume, and you asked me not to dress up too nicely?
Bah, you bastard!
Yu Yu refused to listen to Fu Sijian. She changed into a moon-white dress, quickly put on some light makeup, and then carried her small bag to go out.
As soon as she walked out of the house, she clearly felt Fu Sijian's real gaze scanning her one-shoulder collar and knee-length skirt, revealing deep dissatisfaction.
However, he did not say anything, but just put his long arms possessively around Yu Yu's slender shoulders, clearly declaring his sovereignty to others.
Although it was early in the morning, there were few people on the street.
"Let's go have breakfast first, and then we'll talk about where to go?"
Agreeing to accompany Fu Sijian out was not a mindless follow-up. Yu Yu still had a say in their itinerary for the day.
"Yeah." Fu Sijian actually just wanted to see Yu Yu before leaving. He didn't have any specific destination, so he let her decide where they were going.
Yu Yu took Fu Sijian to a breakfast shop near her home.
The homemade meat buns and egg burgers sold by the owner of this shop are simply amazing. Yu Yu has been eating them almost since she was a child and has never been tired of them.
The owner of the breakfast shop obviously knew Yu Yu. As soon as he saw her, he greeted her warmly: "Hey, sister, is it still the same as before today?"
"Uncle needs to order more today. I brought someone with me."
