Chapter 142 Wishes
Gu Xinning is planning to find an opportunity to ask Zeng Yixue about the rumors about Gu Xinyan outside.There are not many people around Gu Xinning who know about this matter. At first, she suspected that Tao Yumei was the one who said it, but now she thinks it is not so.

Gu Xinyan's matter was not reported in the newspapers and media because of Xu Ting's relationship.If Tao Yumei knew, she might be extremely nervous, and she wouldn't be silent at all.

After Song Jianzhong left, Gu Xinning called Min Chengzhuo and told him about Pengzhan.The matter has become very clear, the matter of compensation is just a process, Gu Xinning does not need to handle this matter by himself, just send someone to go, and Min Chengzhuo is the best candidate.

"Are you in the office?" Min Chengzhuo asked suddenly.

Gu Xinning was slightly stunned, thinking that Min Chengzhuo wanted to discuss this matter face to face, and replied: "Well, in the office."

"Then, wait for me." Min Chengzhuo hung up the phone after leaving a word.

When Min Chengzhuo came in, he was carrying a small gift bag in his hand. He didn't know what it contained. Min Chengzhuo put the gift bag on Gu Xinning's table and said with a smile, "Christmas gift."

Gu Xinning's eyes lit up in surprise. In the past, her adoptive parents would give her an apple on Christmas Eve, hoping that she would be safe for the rest of her life. Now that the two of them have gone abroad, no one will give her anything. Last night On the Internet, she also received a call from her adoptive parents, asking her if she had eaten any apples, and Gu Xinning even lied.

Unexpectedly, I didn't get a gift on Christmas Eve, but I got it on Christmas.

The mouth of the gift bag is made of flowers tied with ribbons, which took a little thought.When Gu Xinning picked it up, he felt that the gift bag was a bit heavy, and he was really curious about what was inside.

When I opened it, it was a red apple tied with a ribbon. Gu Xinning was stunned, and looked up at Min Chengzhuo who was standing in front of her: "Brother Min, this is..."

"It's late, isn't it?" Min Chengzhuo was a little annoyed. He only remembered it very late yesterday, and it was too late to send it. He hesitated for a long time today, and finally decided to take it.

"Is this intended for me yesterday?" Gu Xinning asked.

"Well, I know that every year at this time, you will receive an apple as a gift." Min Chengzhuo explained, "I was negligent. I didn't remember it yesterday. Your adoptive parents can't prepare it for you this year."

This gift was completely beyond Gu Xinning's expectation. She opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say. It was too difficult to express her thoughts just by saying thank you.

Min Chengzhuo pampered Gu Xinning's hair. He had wanted to do this for many years. Before Gu Xinning returned to Gu's house, he had been watching her from a distance. Although he didn't see her every day, Min Chengzhuo had already put Take care of Gu Xinning as his own responsibility.

Well-behaved, sensible, never complaining and optimistic Gu Xinning, while Min Chengzhuo was pleased, he also felt sorry for her, wanted to rub her head to comfort her, and wanted to pat her on the shoulder to encourage her.

And now, he can do it.

"Brother Min, do you know why I get an apple every year at this time?" Gu Xinning asked holding the apple in his hand.

"Why?" Min Chengzhuo asked cooperatively.

"Because it's Christmas Eve." Gu Xinning said with a smile, "If you eat apples on Christmas Eve, you can make people grow up in peace and health. Although it's just my parents' idea, it can be regarded as a peace of mind. Look at me, I haven't been sick for so many years, and minor ailments like colds rarely make it to the level of being admitted to the hospital."

Gu Xinning suddenly remembered an unpleasant event, but then met a kind person.It wasn't until I came to the Gu family that I realized that the Min family had been taking care of her for so many years. Gu Xinning suddenly felt that it might have been done by the Min family, but at that time Min Chengzhuo hadn't taken over yet.

"Brother Min, when I was young, one Christmas Eve, I still remember that it was my father's first illness that year, and he was rescued in the hospital for a long time. All the corners and corners of the house were found and given to the hospital. " Gu Xinning lowered her eyes and said, "My mother wants to buy me an apple, but she can't come up with any extra money."

"There will be every year in the future." Min Chengzhuo said firmly.

Gu Xinning nodded lightly: "On the way home, I happened to meet a peddler who was carrying apples for sale. The load he was carrying accidentally touched a tree by the roadside, and the apples fell out, and one rolled far away. He didn't see it all the way to the tree across the road, and he just picked up the things at his feet and left with the load."

Min Chengzhuo remained silent, just looking at Gu Xinning.

"My mother held my hand tightly, stood there thinking for a while, then pulled me across the road, picked up the apples under the tree, and stuffed them into my pocket." Gu Xinning smiled self-deprecatingly, " I don’t know what happened, but the peddler who had already left saw me, and immediately came over and took the apple back from my pocket.”

"Xinning..." Min Chengzhuo didn't know how to comfort her.

Gu Xinning raised his head and continued: "No, it's not me who is embarrassed, but my mother. Although the peddler didn't say a word, I saw that my mother was blushing and had nowhere to go, and she held my hand tightly. Yes, still trembling slightly. At that moment, I knew that I would have to live this kind of life in the future, and I would live better if I didn’t expect extravagance.”

Min Chengzhuo pursed his lips tightly. Gu Siyuan entrusted the people of the Min family to take care of Gu Xinning and Lin Shu, but they would not give too much care, and would only show up in times of crisis.Min Chengzhuo didn't know why Gu Siyuan did this, nor did he know what Gu Siyuan thought when he heard about it.But Min Chengzhuo knew that if he was there at that time, he would never let Gu Xinning suffer this kind of hardship.

"However, there are also good people." Gu Xinning exhaled deeply, "I met an uncle before I got home that day and gave me an apple."

Min Chengzhuo looked at Gu Xinning steadfastly.

"Now I understand that the uncle I met back then is Brother Min's father, right?" Gu Xinning said with a smile, "I have never met your father, so I don't know his appearance, but I guess, that year He was the one who gave me the apple. Now it's your turn to give me the apple again."

Seeing Gu Xinning's smiling expression, Min Chengzhuo just felt that the sad atmosphere had been diluted a lot, and he couldn't help but rubbed Gu Xinning's hair again, unable to say a single word of comfort that he wanted to say.

"Brother Min, are you sympathizing with me?" Gu Xinning took away Min Chengzhuo's hand that messed with her hairstyle in dissatisfaction, "I'm not sad, really. Didn't it mean that a person's life has to taste ups and downs, bitterness first It’s much, much better to be sweet and then bitter than to be sweet first and then bitter.”

The most important thing is that the things I encountered when I was a child are much better than what I have to face in my previous life.At that time, at least there were adoptive parents by my side.It's been so long, although the traces can't be erased, but I don't think it's so serious.

Whenever faced with something difficult to solve, I always feel that the sky is about to fall, but when things really come, I will find that the sky will not fall. In a few years, I will look back at what happened, You will feel that it is nothing more than that.

"You can think about it." Min Chengzhuo didn't know what to say, Gu Xinning didn't need comfort at all, she was more open than anyone else.

"Hey." Gu Xinning smirked.

Min Chengzhuo hesitated for a moment and asked, "Doesn't Xinning blame your father?"

"I used to complain, but knowing that when my mother was sick, he tried his best to provide the best treatment, so I don't resent." Gu Xinning paused, "I don't know what happened at the beginning, although he He has done a lot, but his mother died of illness, and he never showed up, so there should be his reasons for doing so."

Gu Xinning no longer blindly resented someone like before. He didn't understand his adoptive parents at the beginning, and complained to them when he didn't know the real situation, which eventually led to that result.The situation with his biological parents is the same now. When he doesn't know the truth, Gu Xinning will not blindly blame them.Those things that are not said have reasons for their insistence.

It's just that Gu Xinning can't fully accept Gu Siyuan, who has never met, as his father psychologically.

"Let's not talk about these past things." Gu Xinning calmed down and waved the apple in his hand triumphantly, "Thank you for the late gift. I thought I didn't have it this year. Now my wish is fulfilled."

Min Chengzhuo complained: "Your wish is fulfilled, when will the meal you owe me be satisfied?"

"I remember." Gu Xinning thought for a while, "Today is impossible. Let's make an appointment on New Year's Day? At that time, you should be busy with Pengzhan's affairs."

"Okay, then it's a deal." Min Chengzhuo stretched out his little finger towards Gu Xinning.

Gu Xinning couldn't help laughing, and stretched out her little finger, hooking Min Chengzhuo's hand.

Things like hooks are really naive.

Because of the Christmas event, after the Gu's shopping mall closed, all the stores worked overtime for a while, sent the business status of the day to the headquarters, and counted the status of the customers with the highest spending in their respective shopping malls.People in the planning department need to work overtime, not only to determine the customer with the highest spending, but also to make three wishes for the customer, which will be selected by the customer tomorrow.

Just looking at the list of customers with the highest spending in each shopping mall, you can tell that this Christmas sales are good. No shopping mall has a maximum spending of less than 5 yuan. The highest spending in all shopping malls happened to be in Liangcheng, where they bought a set of diamond jewelry. , as high as 600 million, far beyond No.2.

It was Tao Yiqing, the wife of the Tao family, whose surname was changed after marrying into the Tao family.

The Tao family moved their funds abroad many years ago to engage in the oil business. Their family fortune is much richer than that of the Gu family, but their influence in the country is getting smaller and smaller, and they are very low-key.Tao Yiqing's natal family is in Liangcheng, and she would come back occasionally.

For foreign luxury brands, Tao Yiqing is easier to get than Gujia.

This made Xiao Zheng grimaced.

What kind of wish is in line with Tao Yiqing's wish?
 Second update, a bit too late.Continue to double update tomorrow.
