The other side.
When Bai Shuqin and Guan Ruirui returned to Guan's house, they saw Guan Baocheng coming downstairs while talking on the phone, with an anxious look on his face.
"Assistant Tan, didn't we agree on this? The terms on both sides were very close, why did Jianghai Group suddenly say they don't want to cooperate?"
When Bai Shuqin and Guan Ruirui heard this, their hearts skipped a beat. When they looked at each other, they saw the guilt in each other's eyes.
Guan Ruirui wanted to go up and talk to Guan Baocheng, but Guan Baocheng raised his hand with a stern face to signal her to stop making trouble.
He turned around, restrained his emotions, and even spoke in a flattering tone to the person on the other end of the phone, "Are the conditions proposed by Guan too high? This can all be negotiated. We can also give up a part of the profit point we agreed on before. I am very sincere in cooperating with Jianghai Group."
I don't know what was said on the other end of the phone, but I saw the muscles on Guan Baocheng's face twitching slightly, and then his whole body seemed to collapse in an instant, and he sat down on the stool at the entrance.
Bai Shuqin and Guan Ruirui rushed forward upon seeing this, "Baocheng, what happened?"
Guan Baocheng held his head, looking annoyed. "What happened? How should I know what happened? Jianghai Group suddenly called and said the cooperation was cancelled. Everything was fine before!"
As he spoke, he suddenly looked at Bai Shuqin again, "Didn't you bring Ruirui to visit the Third Madam of the Jiang family? Did something happen to you at the Jiang family?"
Bai Shuqin felt her heart skip a beat when she heard his question. It was obvious that Jianghai Group had not disclosed the Jiang family's affairs. She opened her mouth and was about to explain, but was stopped by Guan Ruirui.
"It's nothing, Dad. We haven't even seen Mrs. Jiang San."
Bai Shuqin subconsciously looked at Guan Ruirui, and saw Guan Ruirui gently pinching her arm, obviously trying to stop her from saying it.
Guan Baocheng did not doubt it after hearing this. He just scratched his not-so-thick hair in annoyance and muttered to himself,
"Why is that? Jianghai Group is such a great partner... If we can successfully connect with Jianghai Group, our family will be able to move to a higher level! No, I can't just let it go like this."
As he spoke, he stood up and walked out quickly, not paying any attention to Bai Shuqin and Guan Ruirui behind him.
Bai Shuqin watched the people leave the door, then turned to Guan Ruirui, "Ruirui, why did you pull me just now? The Jiang family may have canceled the cooperation because of that little bitch..."
"Mom!" Guan Ruirui called Bai Shuqin, not giving up, "I thought about it carefully on the way back, and Mr. Jiang didn't explicitly say that Guan Ruirui was his daughter. Maybe we heard it wrong?"
Guan Ruirui was unwilling to believe that Guan Xuxu left the Guan family and became the daughter of a top wealthy family like the Jiang family. She could not accept that Guan Xuxu had a higher status than herself.
"How could I have heard it wrong? If Guan Xuxu is not Mr. Jiang's daughter, why did Mr. Jiang suddenly cancel the cooperation between our two families? And why did the housekeeper say that?"
Bai Shuqin felt that Guan Xuxu was most likely the daughter that the Jiang family had just found, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence.
If this is true, she must explain it clearly to her husband as soon as possible. The Jiang family is so big, and her family raised his daughter for him. Even giving them a mountain of gold and silver as a token of gratitude would not be too much. How can she cancel the cooperation?
Isn't this an ungrateful person?
"Anyway, I don't believe it. Mom, think about it. If Guan Xuxu is the long-lost daughter of the Jiang family, why didn't the Jiang family even send someone to pick her up? The person who contacted Dad before also said that they live in the mountains and the signal is not good. There is no need for a family like the Jiang family to lie to us."
Guan Ruirui tried her best to convince Bai Shuqin, and also to convince herself, "Mr. Jiang suddenly got angry today. Maybe he was just mad at us for making a scene at Jiang's house. As for the cancellation of the cooperation, it was probably just a coincidence. Business matters are not so trivial. It definitely has nothing to do with what happened at Jiang's house today."
Bai Shuqin began to doubt after hearing what she said, "Is that so?"
"It must be." Guan Ruirui looked confident and took out her cell phone.
"Just now, the group was talking about this young lady from the Jiang family. They said that the Jiang family will hold a banquet the day after tomorrow to officially let the young lady of the Jiang family make her debut. If we can find a way to get the invitation to the banquet, we will know when we see her in person."
When Bai Shuqin heard this, a hint of hesitation suddenly appeared on her face.
After all, Jianghai Group had just cancelled the cooperation between the two companies, so it was not easy to get an invitation letter.
Guan Ruirui saw this and said hurriedly,
"It would be best if Guan Xuxu wasn't the daughter that the Jiang family just found. We could take this opportunity to explain today's misunderstanding to Mr. Jiang, and maybe Dad could take this opportunity to get the cooperation project back. In that kind of situation, it would be hard for Mr. Jiang to refuse."
She paused, gritted her teeth, and said another possibility:
"If by any chance, Guan Xuxu is really the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, our family has raised her after all. She can't just recognize her biological parents and then not recognize us, right?"
Guan Ruirui's words instantly awakened Bai Shuqin.
Her eyes lit up.
Yes, why didn't she figure it out?
Regardless of whether Guan Xuxu is the daughter of the Jiang family or not, this matter is good for them!
"Rui Rui is right. If that little bitch Guan Xuxu is really the daughter of the Jiang family, the Jiang family can't kick us out in front of so many people. Whether it's a cooperative project or something else, the Jiang family will have to give us something to express their gratitude. After all, we raised their child."
The more Bai Shuqin thought about it, the more she realized that this was the case. She clapped her hands and said, "I'll figure out the invitation letter. Bring your dad along when the time comes. You also go buy two beautiful dresses. You must dress up beautifully the day after tomorrow."
The banquet hosted by the Jiang family would definitely be attended by the well-known young masters and celebrities in Hai City. It would be the first time for her daughter Ruirui to appear in such a circle, and she would definitely amaze everyone.
Upon hearing this, Guan Ruirui shyly moved closer to Bai Shuqin, but she had the same thought as Bai Shuqin in her heart.
…
Guan Xuxu didn't know what the Guan family was planning. After dinner, she was finally shown her new room by her second aunt Yao Lin.
It was a suite on the third floor. It was very big and divided into two rooms, the inner and outer rooms. The whole room was filled with a princess-like dreamy children's style, and the outer corner was filled with various toys and gifts.
There are even items like baby strollers.
"This was originally the baby room prepared for you. My eldest brother has had it kept for all these years, but I thought the decoration was too childish, so I thought of arranging other rooms for you first and giving them to you after repainting and decorating them. I didn't expect this to happen. Please don't blame me."
As Yao Lin spoke, she put her arm around Guan Xuxu affectionately.
Guan Xuxu felt that this second aunt was too close to him, so he quietly pulled his arm back from her hand.
"Second Aunt, you are too serious."
Yao Lin looked at her cold attitude, the smile on her face froze. She said a few more words and then turned to leave. The moment she closed the door, her friendly smile disappeared. When she turned her head to look at the door, there was a hint of gloom in her eyes.
He is indeed a bastard born of a bastard. He has no shame even when given treatment.
Just wait, she doesn't believe that she can't be dealt with.
