They adopted Gu Nianqiang because she looked somewhat like the lost Gu family daughter, Gu Qiang. Even her name had the character "Nian" added in the middle, just to express their longing.
Du Yi has a close relationship with this adopted daughter, just like a biological mother and daughter.
On the contrary, Gu Ming'en was indifferent to her, and was focused on finding his lost sister.
Over the years, I've always felt that Gu Nianqiang is ambitious, wanting to enter the headquarters, and also constantly thinking about marrying into the wealthy Fu family.
All of these factors made it impossible for Gu Ming'en to like her.
On the contrary, after Myne returned this time, everyone originally thought that she would definitely not accept someone replacing her status as the young lady.
I never expected that seeing her running around every day to help with everything, and how she thoughtfully taught Mayne various etiquette and helped her become familiar with the company's business, I could see her sincerity in everything she did.
This was exactly the effect Gu Nianqiang wanted; she felt guilty upon hearing his comforting words.
“Dad, I will stay by Yin Yin’s side after she wakes up. She has been so pitiful in the past, and we should all give her more encouragement.”
Gu Ming'en nodded with satisfaction: "She is blessed to have you as a sister."
Grandma Gu said with satisfaction, "You're right. Those things in the past only make me feel more sorry for her. When she wakes up, everyone should give her more care."
Now that they've become a family, Fu Nanxiao and Jiang Yilai can't even exchange a single word.
Jiang Yilai has always had an inexplicable tolerance for the Gu family, and she expressed her opinion after seeing this scene.
"I'm here to check on Miss Mei's condition. Nan Xiao and I will go downstairs to wait. Please let us know when she comes out."
Seeing that her attitude had softened, Gu Nianqiang quickly chimed in, "I'm really sorry for causing you trouble this time. I will personally come to apologize after I find out the truth."
The implication was that she wanted to investigate the matter herself; if she let Fu Nanxiao handle it, the investigation might lead back to her, and that would be the end of her.
Jiang Yilai didn't want to make things difficult for her at this time, so she nodded and said, "If you need any assistance, just let me know."
Fu Nanxiao, however, had a different opinion: "It's better if I arrange for someone to investigate so that we can find out the truth more quickly."
Gu Nianqiang shook her head and said heavily, "Nan Xiao, thank you for your kindness, but this matter is also a private matter within the Gu family. The investigation will undoubtedly uncover more..."
She paused deliberately, as if to say something more, as if afraid that more bad things would be exposed.
Gu Ming'en saw her concerns and agreed, "Nian Qiang is right. We should investigate ourselves and you shouldn't interfere."
“Of course, once we confirm that it has nothing to do with Miss Jiang, we will apologize in person,” Gu Ming'en added.
Since the person in charge has said such a thing, if Fu Nanxiao insists on conducting an inspection, he will only be making things difficult for them.
Fu Nanxiao nodded slightly: "Then I will wait for your response and give me an answer as soon as possible."
Gu Ming'en nodded: "That's for sure. We must also find out who is spreading rumors and causing trouble behind the scenes. I will never let them get away with it."
Gu Nianqiang frowned. It was all Fu Nanxiao's fault for disrupting her plans.
However, this incident left Grandma Gu with a very bad impression of Jiang Yilai.
The old woman never liked being talked back to, and Jiang Yilai even called her senile. The anger on her face hadn't subsided, showing that she still harbored resentment towards this person.
We must find a scapegoat, otherwise we'll be finished if the investigation leads back to her.
