It was clear what Wang Qiuman was planning to do by sending his "fiancée" to him, but this "fiancée" had her own ideas from the beginning and was not under Wang Qiuman's control.
Although there are still some things that don’t make sense.
When he first met her at the cocktail party, Gu Weisheng didn't take it to heart at first, but gradually he realized that he had overlooked something.
She was lazy all day long, never worried about anything at any time, and her carefree and relaxed look made his eyes hurt.
Although she was introduced to Wang Qiuman by her agent, she signed the agreement herself. To a certain extent, she chose to agree to it because she showed no reluctance or indignation. Instead, she seemed... quite confident.
All Wang Qiuman could give her was money and entertainment industry resources, which were exactly what Ye Rong wanted in pursuit of his dream of entering the entertainment industry. But after the agreement was signed, she not only pretended to obey but also did some things that were completely contradictory to her nature - whether it was the addition of light-tasting dishes on the table, or the fact that she always appeared in front of him at the right time to remind him to take his medicine.
Later, an accident happened on the ship.
In that doomsday-like situation, she was still able to calm others down despite being busy with her own affairs. Ye Rong at that time really surprised him.
She firmly believed that the country would come to rescue her, and she showed calmness and clarity in the chaos, which did not seem like someone who would be easily deceived by a pimping company.
There was no definite purpose for what the girl said, and even her visit to Gu's house seemed like a coincidence, but it was unusual for it to be too coincidental.
Gu Weisheng began to find it increasingly difficult to understand what she was thinking.
For example, now.
The platinum necklace inlaid with emeralds was very valuable, both in terms of the quality of the gemstones and the brand itself. She could have kept it for herself instead of bringing it over to say such meaningless words to him.
Gu Weisheng looked at her and almost asked directly: What is your purpose in coming to the Gu family?
The thought flashed through his mind for just a moment, and Gu Weisheng withdrew his gaze calmly. Forget it, no matter what her eyes were on, it had nothing to do with him.
Ye Rongpi noticed that Gu Weisheng looked at her with a deep look in his eyes for a few seconds, but soon he looked away calmly: "Oh."
oh?
Ye Rong didn't expect the boss to have this kind of reaction.
Now seeing the big brother's "broad-minded and tolerant" demeanor, Ye Rong was a little confused.
This doesn't fit your personality, big boss!
Then Ye Rong put the jewel necklace away.
But you know what, the quality of this emerald is quite good, very emerald green.
That's gratifying.
Just like that, it was the end of the month when I would be heading back to my family home.
It was a nice and sunny morning.
It is late autumn and the weather has started to get cooler, but I don’t feel cold because the sunshine is still good.
Ye Rong was wearing an apricot-red flat-cut cheongsam made of Song Dynasty brocade with a thin cream-white woolen shawl draped over her shoulders. She looked dignified and beautiful, and very gentle overall.
Because it was a family dinner, Ye Rong thought that she would just have a meal and then come back, so she didn't make it too formal. She simply tied up her long hair and kept her makeup light and elegant.
She was ready, and when she came out she saw Gu Weisheng standing in the living room, looking at the ornaments placed on the shelf in the living room.
"I think the gem is of good quality and very ornamental, so I'll hang it there as a decoration." Ye Rong explained with a smile, "Make the best use of it."
Gu Weisheng retracted his gaze, glanced at her gently, and smiled: "You are quite good at living."
Ye Rong blinked, not knowing why, but always felt that the boss was speaking in a sarcastic way. But it was not necessary to pay attention to such a small matter, and Ye Rong smiled embarrassedly: "I am not as good as you say."
Gu Weisheng: “…”
-
"Master Gu Zhi, aren't you with the master?"
The housekeeper was a little surprised to see Gu Zhi still standing in the courtyard, as the master and mistress' car had already left.
Gu Zhi glanced in a certain direction, then spoke: "Gu Weisheng is still here, I'll go with them."
"So that's how it is." The housekeeper was even more surprised. It wasn't just one or two days since Young Master Gu Zhi and Young Master Weisheng had been at odds with each other. So why was Young Master Gu Zhi riding in the same car with Young Master Weisheng now?
Gu Zhi ignored the housekeeper's surprise and an extended car drove out.
As soon as Gu Zhi got on the car, he saw a girl talking to Qing Ge. Qing Ge had a calm expression but did not show any annoyance.
To be honest, I have always had a thorn in my side regarding this "brother" Gu Zhi. It was purely an instinctive reaction, stemming from that shameful experience.
When Gu Weisheng, as the eldest son of the Gu family, attracted everyone's attention and was known as a prodigy, he could only hide like a rat that could not stand the light.
Now, everything is reversed.
But why is it that Gu Weisheng, who has lost everything and become a useless man, can still easily overlap with the figure of the former genius when he sees her now?
Gu Zhi's expression was gloomy for a moment, but he quickly managed to control his expression.
Now, he is the heir of the Gu family, and Gu Weisheng is just an abandoned useless person.
-
After getting on the bus.
Ye Rong looked at Gu Zhi and was a little surprised, but it was only a moment away.
After Gu Weisheng sat down, there was no emotion on his face. Ye Rong sat down next to Gu Weisheng, and opposite her was Gu Zhi.
It was at this moment that Ye Rong felt that Gu Weisheng had become even more handsome, especially when he was in the same frame with Gu Zhi, it was simply a crushing win.
Gu Weisheng was still wearing a suit, but the difference from usual was that the cufflinks on his shirt were replaced with low-key and luxurious sapphires. The well-tailored suit fit his body shape, making him look upright and noble.
When it comes to temperament, he really has it nailed.
At this time, Ye Rong didn't understand why Gu Zhi didn't go with Wang Qiuman and Gu Huaqing, but had to squeeze into the same car with her and Gu Weisheng.
Although this car is an extended version and the interior space is large enough, there is no need to do that.
There was an unexpected silence in the car. It was as if there was a barrier between the two of them that kept them separate, and they were in the same space, yet they were completely separate.
The journey took about twenty minutes, which gave him a break, so Ye Rong rested his chin on his hand and let his mind wander.
The person in her sight was Gu Weisheng, who was sitting in a relaxed position, with his head slightly tilted to look out the window. Ye Rong was at a perfect angle to see his profile, with a high nose bridge and a very superior jawline. It seemed that no matter what time it was, Gu Weisheng's posture was always upright and his manners were excellent, giving him the feeling of a young master from a wealthy family.
Therefore, most of the time, he would not realize that his legs were crippled and he needed prosthetic limbs to stand up. Ye Rong had also read Gu Weisheng's medical report, and Sister Lin had also told her in detail. Ye Rong was not surprised to hear the bad results.
It's not that he is completely helpless. In fact, before boarding the ship, Ye Rong checked the items in the system mall, mainly to see if there are any rewards that can heal Gu Weisheng's body.
As a result, she really did find one, a [Cell Repair Cabin] from the interstellar world, which required 12 supply coins.
The current balance of material currency is: 5, and 7 more are needed to exchange.
The prices in the system mall are not high, and the rewards for completing tasks are quite generous. Ye Rong thought that after maxing out Gu Weisheng's favorability and obtaining the system reward of material coins, he would apply to the country to see if he could exchange this thing.
Ye Rong had a hunch that there was a high possibility that the country would agree.
However, all this will have to wait until this mission is completed. I hope this mission can be completed smoothly, although Gu Weisheng doesn't care whether his legs are disabled or not.
