Arnor held his teacup, rubbing it slightly. "Is there an auction open to the public in a little over a month?"
“Exactly. We will send invitations to the world’s rich and powerful for that auction, and they must sign a confidentiality agreement before they come,” Qiao Yifan replied.
“Then let those families who possess Subject Two bring him along.” Arnor showed no concern for the lives lost. “The auction items must be the best and of the highest quality. Security must be strictly enforced!”
"Rest assured, Your Excellency, everything has been arranged properly, and the auction items are under strict control."
"As for the GM144, you guys speed up its development. I hope to get a more complete GM144 at the auction, so that we will have a reason to make those No. 2s stay on their own."
"yes."
After assigning tasks to each other, Arnor sent a message to a group of five people.
Leader: How's the selection process for new recruits going? Are there any promising talents?
FLower: There aren't many good prospects, so don't rush, take it slow.
Bomb: Oh dear, it seems our 7-Eleven isn't so popular anymore.
Forest: There's not a single one who can fight.
Bomb: Why expand enrollment? 711 isn't a place to collect trash.
Forest: We always need to recruit some fresh blood, it's just a pity that there isn't one like our Rose.
Bomb: Hahaha, then you'll probably have to go after those people from the Elite Academy. Besides them, I don't know anyone else in the younger generation who can compare to Rose.
Forest: By the way, I remember you were also from the Elite Academy, right, Flower? You were one of the seniors from the closed-campus generation. Who is more impressive, them or Rose?
Bomb: Where's our little Rose? Why isn't she saying anything?
FLower: I'll only say this once: don't mess with them, or you'll die without even knowing how.
Hua Yin glanced at the beeping messages in his hand and lowered his eyes slightly.
leader…
Dear Big Brother
Was your original intention in establishing 7-Eleven really a good one?
Over the years, how many illegal things have you done using 7-Eleven?
Meanwhile, Xie Yunyu, who was far away in the capital, also received these messages.
He looked into the distance with an unreadable expression.
Suddenly, someone wrapped their arms around her waist from behind, resting their chin on her shoulder. "What are you thinking about, so engrossed?" came Shen Juanqing's clear and gentle voice.
Xie Yunyu spoke softly, "Is it really true that no one in this world can stay true to their original aspirations, and that some people might even have bad intentions from the very beginning?"
The voice was faint and soft, with a hint of confusion.
"Why wouldn't it exist?" Shen Juanqing's voice was deep and melodious, like a cello. "Mencius believed that human nature is good, while Xunzi believed that human nature is evil. The essence of it all lies in our original intentions."
"Heaven and earth are the inn of all things, and time is the passing guest of a hundred generations. We cannot decide what others are like, but for ourselves, we can only hope that we can look up to heaven without shame and look down to people without guilt."
"Ayu, ten years of hardship cannot cool our passion. We don't know what others are like, but we really want to make a change." Shen Juanqing still remembered the scene of the twelve of them full of vigor back then.
Things have changed, but the original intention has never changed.
Xie Yunyu rolled over and hugged Shen Juanqing's waist, burying her head in his chest. "You're right, I understand."
Shen Juanqing gently placed a kiss on the top of her head.
He knew his lover was mysterious, and he wouldn't interfere with any of her decisions.
Even knowing she had been through a lot, as someone slightly older than her and a partner with more experience, I still felt a connection.
He wanted to share his insights with her and hoped that she would be happy and healthy.
Biluo Xiaozhu
The Gu family members gathered here again.
"Sister Yan, you must make sure to celebrate their 100-day celebration properly." Gu Yu, who was nearly fifty years old, sat on the sofa, eating Tang fruit and drinking tea, glancing at the two little babies on the carpet from time to time.
The younger generation of the Gu family, numbering over a dozen, were all gathered around the two little children.
"So cute!"
"Why does Ah Jin's expression look so much like her older sister's?"
“Look at Ah Shen’s eyes, they’re almost exactly the same as Ke Yu’er’s!”
"How come they're so well-behaved? They don't make a fuss at all."
"I wish I could have such a cute baby someday!"
"First of all, you need to have a husband as good-looking as your elder sister's husband, and secondly, neither of us are mixed-race."
"Hahaha."
"How can you be so well-behaved?"
"They seem quiet and well-behaved. Aren't babies at this age supposed to be the most fussy?"
"Fourth Aunt, I know, it's almost all arranged." Gu Nanyan and Shen Bei'an sat together, Gu Nanyan holding Shen Bei'an's hand and playing with each of her fingers carefully.
Shen Bei'an couldn't help but pinch her; there were so many elders here.
Could you please be a little more careful?
Gu Nanyan showed no restraint, still holding Shen Bei'an's hand tightly and playing with it one by one.
No one else in the Gu family cared about these things; such intimate gestures between husband and wife were commonplace in the Gu family.
"Where do you plan to hold this?" Old Master Gu asked, even though the Gu family was neutral and not well-known in the capital.
But they have many friends, not only from China, but also from abroad, who will come to attend the two little ones' 100-day celebration.
Furthermore, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the eldest daughter, Gu Muyuan, will become the next head of the Gu family.
They might even bring their children along.
"We'll invite the head chef from Baiweiju to the main building of Yuxuan Pavilion, and we're still planning to hold a flowing stream banquet. As for the guests... just invite them all." Gu Nanyan said casually. "Security measures have also been arranged to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
Gu Nanyan's choice of words was precise and certain.
Just as she said at the beginning, who in the entire capital would dare to touch Gu Nanyan?
"The main building of Yuxuan Pavilion is indeed a nice place. You can make the arrangements." Old Master Gu has always trusted his eldest granddaughter.
The main building of Yuxuan Pavilion is almost never rented out or opened to the public; it is only open to officials.
Gu Lan picked up a Tang fruit, took a sip of tea, and smiled, "I'm afraid it will leave the people of the capital speechless."
Gu Nanyan's pregnancy was kept secret, yet she still had a child.
Shen Bei'an would naturally not use a gestational sac, and surrogacy is strictly prohibited in the Empire, so neither the Gu nor Shen families would knowingly break the law.
So these two children are biological children, isn't that an absolutely incredible situation?
"Whether you're dumbfounded or speechless, it's enough to satisfy some people's unwarranted thoughts," Sheng Hualan said lazily, but a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes.
Her daughter is highly sought after, both in Beijing and abroad. Countless people openly and secretly ask her if they can send their sons to her bed, not asking for a title, just to have a child.
They could even implant a gestational sac, requiring only one egg from Gu Nanyan.
