Chapter 194 There is no chance for you and Mr. Gu
Chu Lin frowned because of Yuan Xi's cold words: "I heard Gu Hanchen talk about Mi Chen's difficulties, so I came back to you to help you solve it. Do you need to treat me like this?"
Yuan Xi's tone was still cold: "I don't need you to meddle in my business."
Chu Lin frowned and said, "You didn't treat me like this before."
"Before, you were my boss's brother and one of Mi Chen's shareholders, so I had to be respectful to you, but now..."
Yuan Xi glanced at Chu Lin and said, "I don't need to be nice to you anymore. My good temper and good expression have been worn out when you protected Chu Yan again and again. Why should I still be nice to you?"
In a sense, Yuan Xi is also an only child, and she doesn't know how to get along with her brothers and sisters.
Chu Lin frowned and said, "I didn't know it when you were lost. My feelings towards Chu Yan over the years are different from my parents'. My parents know that she is not their biological sister, but I don't know. I have always treated her as my biological sister, just like you can't give up the Liang family grandparents now!"
Yuan Xi said: "It's completely different. The Liang family's grandparents will not hurt you."
Chu Lin: "In the end, Chu Yan didn't hurt you at the beginning. She was just a little girl vying for favor and attention."
Yuan Xi said, "Really? Long before I recognized my relatives, she and Yu Xiaoxiao blocked me in the underground garage and spread rumors about me and Gu Hanchen. Isn't that hurtful? And smashing the bracelet I gave to my mother for the first time isn't that hurtful?"
Chu Lin said: "Can you not be so aggressive?"
Yuan Xi slammed the door angrily. She really didn't want to say a word to Chu Lin.
Yuan Xi was glad that Liang Suisui didn't like Chu Lin.
Chu Lin was locked outside the door and cursed softly.
Cheng Yue heard the sound of the door slamming shut, and came out to look at Chu Lin and said, "Mom had a hard time getting Xiaoxi to live with us. If you make Xiaoxi angry and leave, Mom will definitely blame you."
Chu Lin took a deep breath and said, "She really is a jerk. She doesn't know how to appreciate a good person."
After Yuan Xi closed the door, he continued to talk on the phone with Huo Shiyan.
Seeing Yuan Xi's angry face, Huo Shiyan comforted her, "Forget it, don't bother with insignificant people."
Yuan Xi said: "I suspect that if Chu Yan had not been sent abroad, Chu Lin would have helped Chu Yan take the position of Mrs. Xu if she was still in China."
Huo Shiyan asked: "What Mrs. Xu?"
Yuan Xi said: "Chu Yan is pregnant with Mr. Xu's child from Hengjie Paper and has just gone to Melbourne. I suspect that if she hadn't gone to Melbourne, she would have cried and played a pitiful role in front of Chu Lin, and he would definitely soften his heart again..."
Huo Shiyan chuckled and said, "Mom and Dad won't let Chu Lin mess around."
Yuan Xi said: "I really think that the one who should go to Gu Hanchen's pig farm to raise pigs is Chu Lin. His IQ is the best match for pigs."
Huo Shiyan laughed.
Yuan Xi continued the previous topic, "Oh, right, you mentioned fishing, but who can we find to trick Mi Yi so that she will believe the bait?"
"Jackson."
Huo Shiyan said: "He had a high ranking in the hacker forum before he started his business. He can help you."
"Then I really owe him a big favor this time." Yuan Xi said.
Huo Shiyan said, "Just invite him to dinner if you have the chance. If he wants to gain a foothold in Jiangcheng, he also needs the support of the old families in Jiangcheng. When the Chu family and the Gu family have a banquet, just invite Jackson."
Yuan Xi nodded gently, "Okay, I understand."
The Internet era has made many people rich overnight, but there is rarely any interaction between Jiangcheng's Internet upstarts and some traditional wealthy capitals.
It was because of Gu Hanchen's background in the Gu family that Mi Chen was able to attend many banquets of wealthy families.
For Jackson, he also wanted to enter the circle of Jiangcheng's old wealthy families. Yuan Xi thought Gu Hanchen would be happy to help.
After Yuan Xi resolved his worries, he said, "I'm going to sleep, I'll hang up first." Huo Shiyan said, "Don't hang up, I'll watch you sleep."
Yuan Xi smiled softly and did not hang up the video call.
-
One o'clock in the morning, outside Jiang Ye's door.
Zhong Xiaoyi supported the drunk Gu Hanchen and sighed softly. After finally helping Gu Hanchen into the car, she heard Gu Hanchen clamoring for wontons.
The car started, Zhong Xiaoyi looked at Gu Hanchen who was drunk, and sighed helplessly again.
After returning to River View No. 1, he helped Gu Hanchen back to the master bedroom.
Zhong Xiaoyi went to the kitchen and turned on the fire to cook the wontons she had made during the holidays. The wontons did not take long to cook.
Zhong Xiaoyi carried the wontons to the living room outside the master bedroom, helped Gu Hanchen up from the bed and said, "Boss Gu, you can eat the wontons now."
Gu Hanchen smelled the wontons, woke up and took a bite, "It's much better than what Yuan Xi made."
Zhong Xiaoyi chuckled, "If you like it, eat more."
Gu Hanchen stretched out his hand and rubbed his temple. "You must not get married or fall in love before the age of 30. If you get married and have children, there will really be no one to cook wontons for me in the early morning."
Zhong Xiaoyi said: "After you get married, Mrs. Gu will cook for you."
Gu Hanchen snorted, "Do you think it's so easy to find Mrs. Gu?"
"You are asking too much." Zhong Xiaoyi chuckled.
Gu Hanchen's requirements are indeed very high. He wants the girl to be a great beauty who can be spotted in the crowd at first glance. Ordinary beauties are not in his eyes.
Not only does she have to be pretty, but she also has to be outgoing and good at joking, and she also has to tolerate Gu Hanchen playing with his friends until the early morning before going home.
In the past, Zhong Xiaoyi thought that Gu Hanchen was deliberately making things difficult for Mrs. Gu. In fact, Gu Hanchen didn’t want to get married at all. Later, she found out that he was serious and his requirements were so high.
Gu Hanchen sighed, "For a lifetime, shouldn't we have higher expectations? You make such delicious wontons. Whoever marries you in the future will be blessed."
Zhong Xiaoyi said: "Mr. Gu, I don't want to get married."
Gu Hanchen was a little less drunk, "You are much more sober than Yuan Xi. You are not as confused as Yuan Xi. You got married and had children at the age of 26."
Zhong Xiaoyi smiled at Gu Hanchen. After Gu Hanchen had eaten half of the wonton, she started to clean up the living room.
When she entered the kitchen, Zhong Xiaoyi saw her mother washing the pot.
Mother Zhong glanced at Zhong Xiaoyi and said, "Look at your dark circles. Change your job. I see you haven't slept much recently. It's already two in the morning. Mr. Gu can go to work at ten or twelve, but you have to go to work at eight in the morning..."
Zhong Xiaoyi said: "Let me wash it, you go and rest."
Mother Zhong looked at Zhong Xiaoyi and said, "Xiaoyi, there is no possibility for you and Mr. Gu."
Zhong Xiaoyi said: "I know, I don't ask for results. I just want to repay Mr. Gu for his kindness to us mother and daughter in my own way, that's all."
Mother Zhong said, "Xiaoyi, I'm afraid you'll get hurt."
Zhong Xiaoyi was washing dishes. She had never demanded any results, so how could she be hurt?
She knew her identity very well and she would not have any unrealistic dreams.
But she will always remember that when she had menstrual pain in her second year of high school, Gu Hanchen helped her make brown sugar water and put on a hot pack for her.
When she was in her second year of high school, her math scores were not improving, so she had to go to cram school after school and would not come back until 11 o'clock at night.
Zhong Xiaoyi returned to Riverview No. 1 in the middle of the night and was seduced by a yellow-haired man with bad intentions. After being seen by Gu Hanchen, he learned that she came back so late because she was taking math tutoring, so he asked her to withdraw from the evening tutoring class and only take tutoring during the day on weekends.
Normally, Gu Hanchen, who had just started his own business, would come to tutor her in math and English.
Zhong Xiaoyi has always known that Gu Hanchen's kindness to her is that he just treats her as a child whom he has watched grow up.
Zhong Xiaoyi thought that she would never fall in love with anyone else in her life. She would always like Gu Hanchen silently and would not ask for any results. She just wanted to silently guard the love she had in her youth.
