Gu Siyu leaned back in her chair leisurely, and ordered the guest to leave expressionlessly, "I'm sorry I can't see you off!"
Lan Yongchang snorted coldly and pushed his two sons out in dissatisfaction.
Soon, only Gu Siyu and her grandmother Ouyang Muqing were left in the living room.
Ouyang Muqing moved a fruit platter in front of him to Gu Siyu and asked, "Eat some fruit. By the way, didn't you go to school? Why are you back so soon?"
Gu Siyu peeled a grape and put it in her mouth, then replied, "Haotian just sent me to school, and the entrance was surrounded by reporters. I couldn't get in at all, so I came back for the time being."
Ouyang Muqing felt very uncomfortable after hearing this, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble. This is an adult matter and you shouldn't be asked to bear it!"
Gu Siyu shook her head and said, "In this family, no one can stay out of trouble, unless they leave forever, but that's desertion! I won't be a deserter!"
Ouyang Muqing said with a look of relief: "Silly child! And the Yongchang family today are also very embarrassing for you! In fact, before you came, I clearly rejected them. There are so many descendants in the Lan family branch. If I take care of everyone, how can this company operate?"
Gu Siyu smiled and comforted her grandmother, saying, "It's okay! If Brother Zheming and Brother Zheqian were truly talented, I would have hired them even if it cost me a fortune. Unfortunately, they themselves aren't interested in this, so I don't need to go along with Uncle and Auntie's wishes."
Ouyang Muqing nodded and said in agreement, "You're right! The Yongchang couple have been plotting against our eldest wife all day long. If they had put all that thought into their work, they would have achieved great results long ago! They're still just a small department manager after all these years, and they're not ashamed of it!"
Gu Siyu didn't know much about the personnel of each department of the company, so she asked curiously, "Department manager? Didn't they ask you for a promotion? That shouldn't be the case!"
Ouyang Muqing curled his lips in disdain, "Why didn't you look for it? But I rejected them all! Without rules, there will be no order. They have no ability, so they can only stay where they are! Thinking of finding a backdoor? It's a pipe dream!"
Gu Siyu giggled non-stop, "Grandma is awesome! You are the pillar of the Lan Group!"
Ouyang Muqing smiled proudly, "Of course! But grandma is old, and this pillar of support won't last much longer. You must grow up quickly, and you will be the pillar of support for the Lan family in the future!"
Gu Siyu couldn't help but feel that her shoulders were heavy, as if she was carrying a heavy burden!
"There are five older brothers! Grandma, do you really not consider them?"
Ouyang Muqing immediately rejected the idea, saying, "Forget it! The eldest has his own company, the second is already a leading lawyer, the third is also planning to start his own business, the fourth is planning to take the civil service exam, and the fifth is quite comfortable in the fashion industry."
"Tell me, what else do I need to consider? In fact, whether it's knowledge or adaptability, your conditions in all aspects are better than theirs. Especially now that you have the Qin family as your backing, you are fully capable of shouldering the burden of the Lan Group!"
Gu Siyu felt a little embarrassed by the praise. After all, her brothers were too outstanding and had made their own place in the world outside. Otherwise, they would definitely try their best to come back and grab power and money!
"Well, I will definitely study hard. Whenever the company needs me, I will be there anytime!"
"But we still have to be careful about what Uncle Yongchang said today, especially when he said that our eldest branch has occupied the Lan family's power for so many years, and it's time for their second branch to take over."
Ouyang Muqing smiled and waved his hands, saying, "You believe his lies! I tell you, he's said this no less than twenty times! I wait here every day, and what's the result? He's not even a small department manager!"
"I think the biggest promotion he could have in his life would be taking over his father's position as director after he passes away! Otherwise, there's absolutely no hope!"
Gu Siyu covered her mouth and laughed. It seemed that she was worrying too much!
“Ding! Ding!”
At this time, there are countless message reminders on the mobile phone.
Gu Siyu opened it and saw that it was actually netizens sending her private messages. Some were cheering her up, some were questioning her, and some were even trolls...
"Grandma, look! Information spreads so quickly these days! Everything that happened in our family these past few days has been posted online, and everyone's calling for my response!"
Ouyang Muqing put on his reading glasses, took his phone and read: "This person said it well: Gu Siyu has suffered too much, everyone should love her well!"
"Don't look at this person. What kind of person is she? She actually said you were a jinx. As soon as you got home, your mother cheated on you, Lan Yaxin became an illegitimate daughter, and your father was seriously injured and hospitalized. None of this has anything to do with you. How could she say that to you?"
"You can't look at it, you can't look at it. The more you look at it, the angrier it gets. Don't respond. He thinks so badly of you, what's the point of responding?"
If Gu Siyu knew her grandmother was so excited, she would definitely not show it to her. Now seeing her sad and self-blaming look, she felt bad too.
"Grandma, I respond to those who are kind to me. They are all very concerned about my life and mental state. I don't pay attention to those who scold me. That lowers my IQ too much!"
Ouyang Muqing thought about it and suggested, "Why don't I open an account and say a few words for you? Netizens will definitely believe what I, an old woman in her twilight years, say!"
Gu Siyu was afraid that her grandmother would check netizens’ comments every day after opening an account. It would be fine if the comments were good, but if there were a few argumentative people, wouldn’t her grandmother be so angry that her blood pressure would soar?
"No, no, no! Grandma, didn't you just tell me to study hard so I could become the pillar of the Lan Group? Now is the best opportunity to learn. If I can handle the doubts raised by netizens, then I'll have achieved a small success."
Ouyang Muqing asked doubtfully, "Are you sure? Don't force yourself!"
Gu Siyu patted her chest and said, "Of course not! Women who act like spoiled children have the best lives. I want to act like spoiled children to grandma more, so that grandma will love me more!"
Ouyang Muqing laughed dumbly and said, "Whether you act like a spoiled child or not, grandma loves you! Oh, by the way, your Xiuhe dress should be made, otherwise you will miss the wedding. Since you are at home today, I will just ask the tailor to come over after lunch!
Gu Siyu asked in confusion, "This also needs to be custom-made? Isn't that too extravagant?"
Ouyang Muqing waved his hands and said seriously, "What's so extravagant about this? I don't know about other girls, but this is the only important event in a lifetime, and I want you to marry in style!"
Gu Siyu was touched, "Thank you, grandma!"
Ouyang Muqing stood up, waved to Gu Siyu and said, "Follow me!"
Gu Siyu followed behind in confusion. Could it be that the tailor had come? Didn't he say he would come over for lunch?
