Chapter 911: The Three Great Families’ Marriage
In a high-end jewelry store in Beijing, two ladies walked in arm in arm. As soon as they stepped through the door, they were greeted cautiously by the salesperson.
"Mrs. Hu, Mrs. Jiang are here. We just got a new batch of goods in our store. Would you like to take a look?"
The two ladies were very proud: "Let's see."
"Okay."
The salesperson immediately took the two of them to see the new goods that had just arrived.
"This is a diamond imported from Country J. Look at the clarity and cut, it's absolutely amazing, and the color too. Both of you ladies have seen a lot of the world, so you'll definitely be able to tell the quality of this diamond..."
The two ladies thought it was good: "This and this, wrap them up."
The salesperson was delighted: “Okay!”
"Does your store have any wedding gifts to offer?" asked the ladies.
"Of course!" the salesperson quickly replied, "We have a limited edition four-piece jewelry set: a necklace, bracelet, earrings, and anklet. It's so beautiful! It'll definitely make a great gift."
Mrs. Hu waved her hand and said, "Take it out and let me see it."
"The two ladies, please go to the lounge area and have some tea and wait for a moment. I'll go get the goods."
The salesperson went to get something, and the two ladies sat on the sofa. The waiter in the store immediately brought them two cups of hot tea.
After taking a sip of hot tea, Mrs. Jiang looked at Mrs. Hu with a gossipy look on her face: "That Ji Zhinan is really capable. She actually married Gu Yibei? She stepped into the aristocracy right away. How enviable!"
The waiter was about to leave, but when he heard the three words Ji Zhinan, he was shocked and stood silently by.
The two ladies didn't take the little waitress seriously at all. Mrs. Hu replied with a look of contempt: "You are still young and capable. Just that face, let alone men, I am fascinated by her!"
Mrs. Jiang laughed: "You really know how to joke."
"I'm not talking nonsense. Don't you know that to my old Hu, Ji Zhinan is his white moonlight! When he mentions Ji Zhinan, my old Hu's eyes light up so brightly that they can blind me!"
After taking a sip of tea, Mrs. Hu said, "It's better to get married. It will save the heads of the companies in Beijing from worrying about you."
"That's right." Mrs. Jiang nodded: "But why did I hear that the Gu family doesn't seem to like Ji Zhinan very much?"
Mrs. Hu: "What's so surprising? If your son marries a woman with no background, would you be okay with it?"
Mrs. Jiang felt terrible when she thought about her son marrying a pretty girl. "How could Gu Yibei dare to marry her?"
"She's pregnant!" Mrs. Hu said, "My cousin went to pick up some photos with her fiancé a few days ago, and ended up running into Master Gu and his friends taking wedding photos. My cousin said the staff at the bridal shop had a full supply of water and food, and Ji Zhinan had to take a break every half-hour because she was afraid she'd get a stomachache from standing for too long. So, if she's not pregnant, what could she be?"
After picking up the teacup and drinking a glass of water, Mrs. Hu continued, "My husband, Lao Hu, has a friend who does business in Country Y. His friend told me that the Gu family has recently been very close to the Warrens family in Europe and the Luo family in North America. They have a lot of business dealings. If I'm not mistaken, this is a marriage alliance!"
Mrs. Jiang was shocked: "A marriage between the three major families?"
"That's right." Mrs. Hu nodded. "It seems that Ling Yin Warrens is dating Luo Ling, the deputy patriarch of the Luo family. Luo Ling is the biological mother of Ling Yin Warrens' daughter, South Wulace."
"What does that have to do with the Gu family?" Mrs. Jiang asked curiously.
