Can you be called a rich man if you don’t indulge yourself?

Chapter 94 Why is your girlfriend not the same person as the one she showed me?

Although Xu Hong kept urging Gu Heng to find a daughter-in-law for her.
But when her "daughter-in-law" appeared in front of her, she panicked.
He opened his mouth and closed it again, struggling for a long time without saying a word, and could only look at Gu Heng for help.
Although Gu Heng didn't know why Lin Ran was so cooperative, wasn't the purpose of inviting her here to pretend to be his girlfriend?
Now he doesn't have to bother talking to her or promising her any benefits to get her to play the role willingly, so he doesn't have to worry about it anymore.
He smiled shamelessly and said, "Mom, this is my girlfriend Lin Ran."

Then he turned to Lin Ran and introduced him: "This is my dad."

"This is my uncle and aunt. They are also Xinran's parents."

Lin Ran did not have the slightest airs of a senior executive of a famous company at this time. After listening to Gu Heng's introduction, he greeted everyone with a smile on his face.
"Hey hey hey, okay okay!"

After Xu Hong got used to it for a while, a smile appeared on her face and she responded to Lin Ran excitedly.

"Don't stand at the door anymore, come on, come on, go home and sit down!"

After saying that, Xu Hong planned to hold Lin Ran's hand intimately and take her home.
But just when he stretched out halfway, he saw Lin Ran's hands with exquisite manicure, and his skin was as white as a baby's without impurities. Then he looked at his own hands, which were full of wrinkles and calluses due to years of rough work. He was so embarrassed that he pulled his hands back.
Lin Ran noticed Xu Hong's action, smiled and threw the bag on her arm towards Gu Heng, then took Xu Hong's hand and took the initiative to close the distance between the two: "Xin Ran and I have been waiting at the door for almost half an hour, and we are almost exhausted."

When Gu Heng saw this scene, his favorable impression of Lin Ran increased again.
Hearing this, Gu Heng's aunt immediately scolded Gu Xinran, "This damn girl, she refused to tell me who she was going to pick up today! If we had known that we were going to pick up Xiao Heng's girlfriend, we wouldn't have gone to this village meeting!"

Gu Xinran: “???”

Seeing a big black pot being put on his head, Gu Xinran was speechless.
She originally wanted to call Gu Heng directly, but Lin Ran said she wanted to walk around the village, so she accompanied her for half an hour.
Is it my fault now?

But when he saw Lin Ran's beautiful profile, Gu Xinran could only sigh secretly in his heart.
A higher-ranking official can crush someone to death, not to mention the gap between an intern like me and the deputy director.
Unconditionally take the blame for your boss, isn't this the first rule of the workplace?
After a brief chat, the group of people walked towards the old house with smiles on their faces.

Gu Xinran also forgot the pain of taking the blame, and followed the crowd in a hopping manner.
Just as she was about to go into the house together, a large hand grabbed the back of her neck and pulled her out.

Seeing his parents and his uncle and his wife looking at him, Gu Heng laughed and said, "You guys go in and sit down first. Xinran and I have something to say."

"Come in quickly! Why do you have to say it now? Can't you say it later? Your girlfriend is here and you leave her alone? You are so ignorant!"

Listening to Xu Hong's scolding, although Lin Ran didn't understand the meaning of the dialect, he could roughly guess it, and pretended to be well-behaved and sensible and said: "Auntie, it's okay. The brother and sister probably have something to say in private. I'll stay with you."

Seeing Lin Ran being so sensible, Xu Hong couldn't help but smile.
Then he didn't care about the two siblings and pulled Lin Ran to the sofa.

Seeing his parents enter the house, Gu Heng turned his gaze to Gu Xinran's face and glanced at her with scrutiny: "Go ahead."

Gu Xinran shrank his head and pretended to be confused: "What are you talking about?"

"What do you think? Why did Lin Ran come here suddenly?"

"Didn't you invite her to dinner with us two days ago? Why are you asking me?"

Gu Heng grabbed her neck and continued, "Yes, I invited her here. I want to know why she came here without making any noise."

"It hurts!"

After struggling for a long time, he still couldn't escape from Gu Heng's hand. Gu Xinran could only look at Gu Heng with a wronged look on his face, trying to persuade him with family affection.
There was no way to get away with it, so Gu Xinran could only lower his head and poke his finger while telling the story.
"Someone added me on WeChat yesterday afternoon, and I agreed, but I didn't expect it was Director Lin."

Gu Heng nodded. As the company director, it would be very easy for Lin Ran to get the contact information of an intern.

"go on."

"Director Lin added me on WeChat and asked me to send her my home location."

"And you agreed?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Xinran's eyes widened, and he looked righteous and awe-inspiring: "How is it possible? I, Gu Xinran, am such a person? I rejected her righteously at the time! And I also explained to her the importance of personal privacy such as home address!"

When Gu Heng heard this, he didn't say anything, but just lowered his head and stared at her face.
After being stared at by Gu Heng for several seconds, Gu Xinran said weakly: "Okay, I'll send it to her directly."

"Then why didn't you tell me when she was coming today?"

"I wanted to tell you!" Gu Xinran's tone weakened again, "But Director Lin asked me not to tell you. He said you would know it when she comes.
Godfather, you know I am just an ordinary intern.
She was a senior executive in the company and held the power of life and death over me. The disparity in status was so great that I didn’t dare to refuse. In addition, Director Lin tempted me with a formal contract. With both kindness and force, I couldn’t resist the temptation and agreed.”

"In other words, Lin Ran deliberately didn't let you tell me?"

"Yes! I swear to God! I will never hide it from anyone else, not even you, my godfather!"

Looking at Gu Xinran who was showing his loyalty like a clown, Gu Heng shook his head helplessly and said, "If you want a formal contract, why don't you just come to me? Don't you think your brother doesn't even have the ability to do this?

My Gu family is a family of anti-Japanese heroes after all, and all of us are loyal and brave. How could we have a traitor like you who sells out your father for fame and fortune?"

"Then I think it's a bit of a waste to ask a multimillionaire like you to take action for such a small matter. Next time! If something like this happens again, I will definitely notify you in advance!"

"Okay, stop playing around and go sit at home. It's freezing outside."

Gu Heng thought for a long time but couldn't figure out why Lin Ran wanted to hide it from him, so he simply gave up thinking about it and took Gu Xinran straight into the house.

After entering the room, Gu Heng saw Lin Ran sitting dignifiedly in the middle of the sofa, with his mother Xu Hong and his aunt sitting on either side, asking about his well-being.
"Ran Ran, it's okay for Auntie to call you that, right?"

Lin Ran didn't feel uncomfortable with this name, and smiled obediently: "It's okay, Auntie, my parents call me that at home, it sounds intimate." Although she only met Lin Ran for a few minutes, Xu Hong's love for her was beyond words.
And beautiful.
And well behaved.
I don't mind that my family is from the countryside.
Unlike the daughter-in-law of Li Laoer in the village, who is said to be a city girl, she looks like a big black bear, with broad shoulders and a big waist, and she always looks at the sky when she walks. At the beginning, Li Laoer and his wife boasted everywhere that their son had found a city girl and they would enjoy a good life in the future.

The results of it?
The daughter-in-law lives at home and is served like a queen every day
If things don't go his way, he'll scold the old couple.

Look at Lin Ran in front of him. He is completely different from the big black bear in Li Laoer's house.
"How old are you this year?"

"I was born in the first month of 96, so I am 28 this year. After my birthday, I will be 29."

Hearing this age, Xu Hong was stunned at first.
Then he said in surprise: "You don't look like you are 29, you look about the same age as our Xinran."

The young aunt continued, "Third sister-in-law, you don't understand this! Girls in the city like Ranran will take care of themselves. When they reach our age, they will look like they are in their twenties.

Look at the stars on TV, aren’t they all like this?

Look at Ranran again, isn't she prettier than a celebrity? "

"Yes, yes, you are right."

Xu Hong nodded in approval, then smiled apologetically at Lin Ran: "Auntie is from the countryside and doesn't have much experience. Don't take what I say to heart."

"Auntie, what are you talking about? You praised me for being young, and I'm so happy~"

"The one born in 96 is good. My Gu Heng was born in 00, so you are exactly four years older than him. As the old saying goes, if a woman is four years older than her husband, she will be blessed with good fortune and longevity!"

Gu Heng stood aside and listened to the old sayings that his mother had heard from somewhere, with a frown on his face.
Xu Hong, smiling, saw Gu Heng standing next to the sofa, then looked at the well-behaved and sensible Lin Ran, and then shouted at Gu Heng with a look of disgust: "Why are you standing there like a wooden stake? Come here quickly, I have something to ask you!"

She just couldn't understand why a good cabbage like Lin Ran was taken away by her own pig.
If Gu Heng had just picked up an ordinary cabbage, she could still comfort herself.
But the problem is that Lin Ran is such a good cabbage that she was taken away by her own pig. She couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
After Xu Hong finished speaking, she smiled apologetically at Lin Ran: "Ranran, let Xinran and Auntie chat with you for a while. I'll talk to Xiaoheng."

Then he pulled Gu Heng into the room without saying anything.

Gu Heng was dragged into the room and before he knew what was happening, he was hit hard on the back of his head.
Xu Hong lowered her voice and said hastily, "Tell me the truth! Did you pay someone to pretend to be Lin Ran?"

I don't know where the flaw is, but I definitely can't admit it at this time, so I can only say stubbornly: "How is it possible! Don't you believe in your son's charm? If I am willing, there will be hundreds of girls vying to be your daughter-in-law. How can I still need to spend money to hire someone?
What on earth gave you this dangerous idea?"

Seeing Gu Heng's determined look, and seeing Lin Ran's obedience and understanding, she really liked her. She could only half-believe and half-doubt, "Is she really your girlfriend?"

"Absolutely true!"

"Then why is this Lin Ran different from the one you showed me last time?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Heng's cold sweat ran down the back of his neck.
I originally thought that Lin Ran had revealed some flaws, but I didn't expect that the problem was with me.
The last photo I showed my mother was of Lin Jiayun, and this time it was Lin Ran.
Although they are both beauties, their looks are very different. It is normal for Xu Hong to recognize the difference.
"The one I showed you last time was my younger girlfriend, and this one is my older girlfriend. If you want to see it, I'll ask the girl in the photo to come over and show it to you some other day."

As one of the people who knows me best
He knew that if he explained normally at this time, it would make her more suspicious, so he could only talk nonsense to divert her attention.
As expected, after Gu Heng's nonsense, Xu Hong's slap came as expected.
But after this slap, the doubt in Xu Hong's heart gradually dissipated.

"Do you have any cash on you?"

Hearing Xu Hong's topic span such a wide range, Gu Heng couldn't help but be stunned.
One second he was asking himself if his girlfriend was real, and the next second he was asking himself if he had cash.
Seeing that the old lady was about to slap him again, Gu Heng quickly took out all the remaining 1000 yuan in cash: "Yes, yes, yes! There are still more than yuan."

"Okay, get lost! Go and talk to Lin Ran. I'll be out in a minute."

After receiving the money from Gu Heng, Xu Hong started to chase people away.
Although he didn't know what the old lady was doing, Gu Heng still walked out of the room obediently.
Returning to the living room, he found that only Lin Ran and Gu Xinran were sitting on the sofa. Gu Heng couldn't help but ask, "Where are my dad and the others?"

"My uncle said he was going to buy groceries, and my uncle and aunt went with him, so Xinran stayed to accompany me."

Lin Ran glanced at Gu Heng and responded calmly.

Now that there was no one in the hall, Gu Heng was too lazy to pretend. He sat down next to Lin Ran, stared straight into her eyes and asked, "Why did you let Xinran hide this from me and not let me know that you were coming to my place?"

When Lin Ran heard this, he turned around and looked at Gu Xinran.
Gu Xinran didn't expect Gu Heng to betray her directly, so she started to play the ostrich.
"It shouldn't have any effect on you whether I keep it a secret or not, right?"

Without Xu Hong by her side, Lin Ran was no longer the obedient and well-behaved person she once was. She looked back at Gu Heng with the same sharp eyes.
"It doesn't matter, I just want to know."

After staring at Gu Heng for a long time, Lin Ran picked up the disposable water cup on the table, took a sip, and said casually: "Just think of me as having a bad taste.

I just want to see if you will bring other women home besides me, your "daughter-in-law".

If I let you know in advance, wouldn't that give you time to prepare?"

Gu Heng: “???”

Listening to Lin Ran's words, Gu Heng felt something was not right.
What does this bitch mean?
Didn't I tell her at that time that she would pretend to be my girlfriend and I would pretend to be her boyfriend after the New Year?
A completely fair trade!

Why does she look like the wife catching an adulterer with her husband?

Could it be that she wants to turn her fake play into reality and really wants to control herself?
