Love should be fierce, marriage should be pampered: first marriage and then love

Chapter 24

The fact that a woman appeared in Gu Xiaoran's office was reported to the Gu family the next day, and when Old Master Gu Gu Shengming found out, he was furious.

Just after work in the afternoon, Qing He brought the news to Gu Xiaoran when he was delivering the materials.

"Master, the old man asked you to go home tonight. He said that the old lady came back from abroad today and wanted to have a family reunion dinner."

Gu Xiaoran was busy approving a document. Hearing this, he raised his head from the document, his eyes were stern, and he asked calmly, "Why didn't he call me directly?"

"He knew what happened yesterday, and he probably was afraid of arguing with you, so he asked me to tell you directly."

Gu Xiaoran rubbed his temples, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Isn't it good to know? He thought he could control everyone, and I was beyond his control. What do you think will happen to him?"

Speaking of Gu Shengming, Qing He's temples jumped wildly.

Back then, the marriage that was pointed out to the young master Gu Zining was originally supposed to belong to Gu Xiaoran, but because Gu Xiaoran escaped in front of the battle, at the engagement banquet, Old Master Gu forcibly arrested Gu Zining, which facilitated his marriage with Meng Yunxin.

The young master has a soft temper, so although he was only engaged these years, the old man didn't stare at him closely anymore, but Gu Xiaoran, after returning from studying abroad, quickly took over the Fenghua Group, the most important thing next, of course, was the marriage.

"Although the old man has been in poor health these years, his abilities have not diminished. Qinghe, send someone to watch over him. Don't ask him to find out Su Xiaoqing, otherwise, with Su Xiaoqing's elm head, the Su family alone can't handle it. Let alone an old man."
-
The Jinshan villa area in City A is home to the best mansions in City A, and the Gu family's old house was built here.

The once quiet sanatorium is gradually becoming more lively now, but the Gu family is old-fashioned, so they never moved out of here.

As night fell, the silver Rolls-Royce slowly parked in front of the retro-style villa, the door opened, Gu Xiaoran got out of the car, held the key, and entered the villa.

As soon as he arrived at the door, a servant rushed over to greet him, bent down and said, "Second young master, the old man ordered you to park the car in the underground garage, and then go directly to the study to find him."

Gu Xiaoran played with the keys in his hand, and said displeasedly: "I'm going back after dinner, the car is parked there."

The servant didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly followed Gu Xiaoran into the door.

The Gu family had more than a dozen servants and several bodyguards. Seeing Gu Xiaoran's return, they all avoided him.

All the way to Gu Shengming's study room, the door was open, and by the window facing the door, there was an old wicker chair, an old man was sitting on it, his old face was wearing a Thick presbyopic glasses, at this moment, he closed his eyes with a peaceful expression.

If one only looked at the appearance, everyone would think that this was a kind old man, but...

"Finally willing to come back?" Hearing someone coming in, Gu Shengming opened his eyes, caught a glimpse of Gu Xiaoran, his eyes flashed brightly.

Gu Xiaoran hesitated for a moment, and while entering the door, he said: "I didn't intend to come back, but grandma is back, so come and visit."

After Gu Shengming heard this, his face remained calm, but his tone was a little dissatisfied, "You wish my old man would return to the West quickly, you are pure if you don't see it?"

Gu Xiaoran pursed his lips slightly, picked up a painting and calligraphy from the desk, and asked, "Brother isn't coming back? Where is grandma?"

Gu Shengming snorted coldly, and replied: "Your sister-in-law is also back, and they are all talking in your grandma's room."

Gu Xiaoran put down his calligraphy and painting, turned around and was about to leave.

"Stop!" Gu Shengming stood up, holding his cane with one hand, and called Gu Xiaoran, "Who is that woman?"

Gu Xiaoran stopped, turned around to look at Gu Shengming, and asked indifferently, "Which woman?"

Gu Shengming picked up his crutches, slammed it on the ground, and said angrily: "For so many years, you have been rejecting the blind date I arranged for you, pretending to have no desires, but how could you do this in front of the company? Bring her to the CEO's office in front of many people? Make everyone in the company know about it! How decent are you?"

He really called himself back for this matter.

Gu Xiaoran raised the corner of his mouth, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"Grandpa, you are old, you can do Tai Chi every day and plant flowers and plants. Don't worry about which woman your grandson takes to the office. You have been worrying about it all your life."

Gu Shengming was furious, picked up his crutches and was about to throw it at Gu Xiaoran, but luckily someone behind him pulled Gu Xiaoran over in time.

"Grandpa, I was so angry that I hurt my body. It's hard for Ah Ran to go home once. He's such a big man, and he's the new president. If you hurt him, how can he go to the company?" Qingrun's gentle voice sounded behind him. .

Gu Xiaoran turned around and saw that it was the elder brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time - Gu Zining.

Gu Zining is Gu Xiaoran's eldest brother. He has just turned [-] and is the youngest and most promising professor in the history of the business school in City A. Although he has a fiancée, with his handsome appearance and profound knowledge, many girls are still crazy about him. .

Gu Xiaoran came back to his senses, looked at his elder brother who was about the same height as him, nodded lightly to say hello, then turned and walked outside.

Gu Zining pursed his lips slightly and followed.

Outside the door, stood a woman with full hair but elegant manners. She was wearing a blue cheongsam, holding a shawl, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, looking at Gu Xiaoran kindly.

This old lady is Gu Xiaoran's grandma - Lu Wen.

"Grandma, you are tired all the way." Gu Xiaoran stepped forward to hug Lu Wen, and said sincerely.

Lu Wen also hugged Gu Xiaoran back, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well, Ah Ran has grown up."

"Grow up? Can you still behave like this when you grow up? A person who is really grown up will not disobey his elders again and again. I think he owes a lesson and should be thrown into the army when he was a child!" Gu Shengming rang again from inside the room. An angry voice.

"Okay, okay, save me a few words, how can you still be so annoying after a lot of age?" Lu Wen stared into the room twice, and pulled Gu Xiaoran downstairs.

"Aran, don't talk to your grandpa, he's used to being arrogant and wants to interfere in everything. Grandma is back, and if you have any problems in the future, grandma will take care of everything for you, so mad at that old man..."

"Get out! Get out of here!" There was a crackling sound coming from behind. You don't need to look to know that Gu Shengming must have broken a lot of good things.

Gu Zining glanced at the study room and was about to go downstairs when a gentle voice came from behind him: "Zining, grandpa is so angry, why don't you go in and persuade him?"

Looking back, it was Gu Zining's fiancée——Meng Yunxin, who was supposed to be Gu Xiaoran's fiancée, but Gu Xiaoran escaped from the engagement banquet back then, so she became his fiancée...

Gu Zining frowned and looked at Meng Yunxin. She was wearing a smoky pink dress today, with light makeup and flaxen slightly curly long hair. Gu Zining felt a little uncomfortable.

After tidying up his shirt, Gu Zining looked straight into Meng Yunxin's eyes with a soft smile on his face, and said, "The old man is getting angry right now, going to persuade him will undoubtedly add fuel to the flames, if you are fine, go Talk to grandma for a while, she seems to have changed her attitude towards you, if you want to marry into the Gu family smoothly, shouldn't you try to please her?"

"Zining, you..." Meng Yunxin frowned, her delicate face distorted.

"Okay! It's rare for Grandma and Aran to go home and eat together at the same time. Let's go downstairs!" Gu Zining glanced at Meng Yunxin's nervous face, smiled softly, reached out and grabbed Meng Yunxin's wrist, and led her downstairs.

Meng Yunxin felt Gu Zining's breath blowing towards her face, she was a little uncomfortable, but she couldn't refuse.

In the spacious and gorgeous dining room, Gu Xiaoran was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, holding a mobile phone in his hand, his fingers were constantly tapping on the screen of the mobile phone, and his eyes were soft.

"Aran?" Meng Yunxin walked to the dining table, pulled the hair on her forehead awkwardly, and greeted Gu Xiaoran with a sweet smile.

Gu Xiaoran raised his head and glanced at Meng Yunxin, seeing her smile, he frowned, put away his phone, and nodded to say hello: "Sister-in-law."

A trace of injury flashed across Meng Yunxin's eyes, but soon she recovered, pulled out the chair with a smile, and sat opposite Gu Xiaoran.

"There are no rules..." A soft reprimand came from the side.

"Grandma!" Gu Zining then pulled away a chair next to Meng Yunxin, sat down, raised his hand and poured a cup of fruit tea for Lu Wen, and said with a smile, "Thank you for catching such a long flight."

Lu Wen glanced at Meng Yunxin with a smirk, reached out to take the fruit tea that Gu Zining handed over, and took a sip, "It's hard work, as soon as grandma sees you and Aran, she beats you with a cock." It's like blood, and the whole person's spirit is very good, but..." She turned her eyes to Meng Yunxin, and said politely, "Shouldn't Ms. Meng study abroad? Why don't you have time to come to our house for dinner today? gone?"

Meng Yunxin sat in embarrassment, feeling a little nervous, so she had to apologize and said, "Grandma, you forgot again. I finished my studies years ago, and now I have started working. Grandpa called me yesterday to tell me that grandma is back and asked me to come over. Have a family reunion dinner together."

"Oh..." Lu Wen stretched out her tone with a grim expression, put down the teacup in her hand, and turned her head to talk to Gu Zining and Gu Xiaoran.

Gu Xiaoran's parents, Gu Anwen and Chen Wanyi, were helping to cook in the kitchen, Gu Shengming was sulking again in the study, Meng Yunxin sat alone at the dining table, so quiet, so out of place, she suddenly felt full of grievances.

Back then, Mr. Gu and his grandfather had agreed to let her be the granddaughter-in-law of the Gu family. She originally disagreed, but after seeing Gu Xiao, she agreed without even thinking about it. However, on the day of the engagement banquet, what she got was Gu Xiaoran going abroad There was no other way, under the arrangement of Mr. Gu, she became Gu Zining's fiancée.

Gu Zining is like a glass of warm water on weekdays, apart from being more handsome and gentle, how can he compare to Gu Xiaoran?
However, Gu Xiaoran didn't care about him at all, and besides knowing that she was his sister-in-law, he didn't care or understand her at all...
