Fang Lanzhi, who had been observing from the sidelines, gradually became serious. "What exactly is going on between you and Xiao Yu?"
Gu Jinhuai revealed an unprecedented seriousness, his gaze resolute, "Although the arranged marriage was just an excuse, I genuinely love Chu Yu."
As he finished speaking, his calm and steady voice slowly reached the ears of everyone present.
Chu Chen and Lu Haoming, who were standing in an inconspicuous corner listening to the conversation, immediately exchanged a glance.
Their expressions revealed a hint of excitement at having "met someone," completely forgetting that the two had just been frantically targeting Gu Jinhuai.
Chu Tingnian's expression grew even more serious. "I don't care if you like her or if it's just an excuse. My daughter, Chu Tingnian's daughter, isn't so easy to marry!"
Gu Jinhuai said calmly and firmly, "I will do everything I can to gain the consent of President Chu and Mrs. Chu."
Although Chu Tingnian hadn't given in yet, Chu Chen and Fang Lanzhi were somewhat persuaded by Gu Jinhuai after this conversation.
This also includes Lu Haoming, who has been watching the drama unfold. All three of them highly approve of Gu Jinhuai's various performances.
At this moment, in the bedroom on the second floor.
Chu Yu, who was half asleep, suddenly turned over in bed.
The curtains blocked out the sunlight, leaving only silence and darkness in the bedroom.
After a while, Chu Yu slowly opened her eyes and reached out to rub her hair.
Huh?
What time did she sleep until?
Chu Yu struggled to get out of bed, picked up his phone from the bedside table, and glanced at the time.
It's almost noon.
Chu Yu sat up wearily, leaned against the bedside table, and rubbed his rumbling stomach.
Just as Chu Yu's mind was gradually clearing, the voices from downstairs and outside the door began to drift in indistinctly.
Although he couldn't hear what they were saying, Chu Yu could tell that the voice belonged to his father.
It seems the group's affairs have been resolved.
Chu Yu didn't think much of it, quickly got out of bed, opened the door, and left the room.
" President Chu, please rest assured, I will definitely not let Chu Yu suffer any injustice."
Gu Jinhuai's voice came abruptly, causing Chu Yu to pause in her steps.
What happened?
How could she hear Gu Jinhuai's voice at home?
Am I hallucinating?
Chu Yu patted her head, still bewildered. Until the next second, her gaze suddenly fell on Gu Jinhuai, who was standing downstairs.
Oh no, she's not only experiencing auditory hallucinations, but also visual hallucinations.
"Daughter, you're awake. Come on down, let's have a meal together as a family later." Fang Lanzhi noticed Chu Yu's figure first and quickly waved to her.
Chu Yu glanced at Fang Lanzhi, then repeatedly stared wide-eyed at Gu Jinhuai beside her.
Gu Jinhuai turned around at the same time, looking at Chu Yu, who was still in a daze upstairs, with a gentle smile on his lips.
It's not a hallucination, it's really Gu Jinhuai!
So, how did Gu Jinhuai end up at her house?!
Half an hour later, under Fang Lanzhi's enthusiastic arrangement, Chu Yu and Gu Jinhuai sat down at the dining table next to each other.
Beside them stood Chu Chen and Lu Haoming, looking completely like bystanders, glancing over every now and then.
Chu Tingnian and Fang Lanzhi sat in the main seats, one solemn and dignified, the other with a smile on her face, they complemented each other quite well.
"Come on, everyone, don't be shy. Help yourselves to whatever you want to eat." After giving these instructions, Fang Lanzhi picked up her chopsticks and began to eat.
Chu Yu glanced awkwardly at the man beside her, her eyes seeming to ask, "Why did you come to my house?"
In response, Gu Jinhuai thoughtfully picked up his chopsticks and took the initiative to put a piece of fish on Chu Yu's plate.
"No thorns."
This action immediately caught the attention of Chu Chen and Lu Haoming.
Their eyes quickly shifted to this direction.
Chu Yu coughed twice, but didn't refuse, "Mm."
Lu Haoming whispered in Chu Chen's ear, " Chu Chen, they're even putting food on our plates right now, we can't show weakness."
Although Chu Chen's attitude towards Gu Jinhuai has improved considerably, he still has to fight for what he needs to fight for, and he absolutely cannot let Gu Jinhuai look down on his sister.
Chu Chen narrowed his eyes, immediately picked up his chopsticks, and turned to put a piece of fish on Chu Yu.
"Sis, eat more of your favorite sea bass."
Seeing this, Lu Haoming followed suit and put a piece of chicken into Chu Yu's bowl, saying, " Sister Yu, chicken won't make you fat, but it's nutritious."
Chu Chen: "Cabbage is good for detoxification, eat more of it."
Lu Haoming: "Don't just eat vegetables, get some fruit to supplement your vitamins. Sister Yu, have some strawberries."
Within minutes, Chu Yu's bowl was filled with a pile of vegetables and fruits.
Chu Yu suddenly felt a buzzing in his head.
While the Chu Family enjoyed a warm meal, the outside world was abuzz with news of a sudden marriage alliance between the Chu and Gu families.
The first to be affected are naturally the stock prices of the two groups.
After all the twists and turns last night, everyone thought that the stock prices of both companies would inevitably fall when the market opened this morning.
As a result, after the news of the marriage alliance broke, the stock prices of the Gu and Chu families not only did not fall when the market opened this morning, but instead soared all the way up.
And just now, news broke that Chu Tingnian, chairman of the Chu Group, has returned to China.
Although the factory scandal has not been completely resolved, people in the industry know that as long as Chu Tingnian is involved, the impact of this matter on the Chu Group is unlikely to be significant.
And so, the Chu Group, which had been facing various pessimistic predictions the day before, rebounded overnight, its stock price soared, and it became the top choice for investors in the industry.
Similarly, news of Gu Jinhuai's swift and decisive reorganization of the Gu Group's internal personnel also began to circulate, making everyone realize that the news circulating online last night that Gu Jinhuai was on his deathbed was just a pretext.
[So, the Gu and Chu families had absolutely nothing to do this time, and we were just worrying unnecessarily?]
