Chapter 1217 - Complex Families
In the morning, at the airport, as it was still some time before they boarded the plane, the three of them sat in the coffee shop. Suddenly, a message came in from Gu Yue"s phone.
Gu Yue was also bored from waiting. She reached out to take a look, and shockingly it was from Nie Jungu, and only asked, "When are you leaving?"
Gu Yue couldn"t help but laugh at the bottom of her heart, she never thought that he would actually still care about the time she left.
She replied, "Waiting to board the plane."
"How long until we get on the plane?"
"One more hour."
"Alright, I have a safe journey." On the other side, Nie Jungu replied.
"Thank you." Gu Yue politely replied.
Just then, Gu Hao"s phone rang, Gu Hao took out his phone, and anxiously looked at Gu Yue, who was already on alert, and spoke to him: "Who has the phone."
"It"s his." Gu Hao bit his lips.
"We"re about to get on the plane, don"t cause any more trouble for me." Gu Yue warned her.
"Alright, I"ll take a call. I"ll be right back." After Gu Hao finished speaking, he picked up his phone and walked out of the coffee shop.
Gong Yuning looked at the two siblings helplessly. He thought back to last night, when his aunt He Lingchu was in his house, hoping so much for Shangguan Chenxu to find a daughter-in-law for her that he could carry a grandson.
But now, from the looks of it, the possibility of that happening was close to nil.
Gu Hao picked up the call from outside, and Shangguan Chenxu directly said, "I"m at the airport. Where are you?"
"What are you doing at the airport!" Gu Hao asked with some surprise.
"Of course I"m here to send you off! "Idiot." Shangguan Chenxu scolded him.
"I"m over at Starbucks. My sister is here too."
"I"ll be waiting for you in the lounge chair next to Starbucks in two minutes." Shangguan Chenxu ended his call and hung up.
Gu Yue asked Yu Ning, "Then when do you plan to return? Or are you planning to stay here for a while? "
"Come back in one month! I still want to stay here. " Gong Yuning smiled sweetly.
"Then take care of yourself." Then take care of yourself.
"Don"t worry!" I"ll be all right by myself. "
"That"s right!" And He Lingchu! " Gu Yue also felt a.s.sured, as she could tell that He Lingchu really loved Gong Yuning.
"Where did my brother go?" Gu Yue was somewhat troubled.
Gu Hao and Shangguan Chenxu were sitting shoulder to shoulder on a chair beside a Starbucks cup. Gu Hao looked exhausted, but when he saw the pale look on his face, his eyes flashed with pain. He stealthily used his body to cover Gu Hao"s waist.
Gu Hao still did not dare to openly show her love, so he immediately stiffened, and wanted to move a little.
Shangguan Chenxu immediately warned in an overbearing manner, "What are you afraid of?"
"My sister and the others are here."
"Who"s your sister with?"
"With Sister Yuning."
Shangguan Chenxu snorted, "Why are you making her so intimate? She"s my cousin"s girlfriend. "
"She is my sister"s best sister. Chen Xu, you are not allowed to hurt her." Gu Hao warned her.
Shangguan Chenxu did not reply, but held Gu Hao"s hand with his other hand, "When you go back, you must miss me, you are not allowed to wander around the bar, other than me, you are not allowed to like any other man."
Gu Hao nodded obediently. In his heart, he still loved Shangguan Chenxu a lot. Just then, Shangguan Chenxu saw that Gu Yue had found it, and immediately let go of Gu Hao"s hand, and said to him: "Go to your sister"s place! It"s time for me to go. "
Gu Yue looked at the cynical young master beside her brother. She really didn"t know what to say.
Gu Hao returned to Gu Yue"s side and did not forget to look at Shangguan Chenxu. Shangguan Chenxu winked at him, expressing his love.
Gu Hao was secretly happy, but Gu Yue could not take it anymore. He pulled him into the coffee shop.
An hour later, the siblings boarded a plane and left.
Gong Yuning was escorted by her bodyguards back to the hotel, but the exhibition was still going on, and An Delu had also left for his country.
Gong Yuning was sitting in the hotel, enjoying the scenery outside the window. At this time, her phone rang, she picked it up, who else could it be other than He Lingchu?
"Hm!" "What"s wrong?"
"Let"s have dinner together tonight."
"Great!" Where are you now? "
"At my grandpa"s house, I can"t leave at noon."
"Good!" Then accompany your family first! See you tonight. " Gong Yuning answered.
"Did the Gu Yue siblings leave?"
"Hm!" They"re on the plane, so you can relax. "
"Alright, I"ll pick you up in the evening."
He Residence.
In the afternoon, all of the He family"s elders and juniors were gathered. As a large family, the incense was burning hot, and the grandchildren were all led by He Haiyi, while He Lingchu was ranked second. Next, there were a few other juniors in his early twenties.
Old Master He had two sons and a daughter, but his eldest son had lived up to his expectations and had given birth to two sons and a daughter in a row. Currently, Grandpa He was still holding on to most of the company"s shares, even his two sons had left the company by retirement. Now, he was putting all the burdens in the hands of his grandchildren.
And amongst the grandchildren, He Haiyi and He Lingchu were the most capable.
As he grew older, he was also very anxious about the future of the company. He hoped that he could choose the best successor to the company. With such a large foundation, he could not be a child"s play.
Therefore, three years ago, he had divided the company into two. The two eldest grandson each took over, and each year, he was able to review the results of each year. With the results of the previous two years, He Lingchu easily suppressed He Haiyi, and in terms of performance, he would receive a profit that was sixty percent higher than his. This year was the third year, and the results were also out. It was time for Old Master He to choose a person to truly continue on.
In the restaurant, old man He didn"t mention this matter, but the atmosphere between his two sons and grandchildren had already become somewhat tense because of this.
He had already made the decision three years ago, and he was planning to carry it out until the end.
"Hai Yi!" There"s still three months, you"d better work hard! " Old Master He encouraged Zhangsun.
"Grandpa, don"t worry. I will definitely not disappoint you from now on." Even though He Haiyi had lost two years already, this year, he was extremely confident.
"Good, keep working hard." As he encouraged He Lingchu, his gaze fell on He Lingchu, and the fondness in his eyes grew.
He Haiyi"s gaze happened to catch his grandfather"s gaze, and his hand under the table secretly clenched into a fist.
On the surface, Grandfather allowed him to work hard, but in reality, he had already decided to help He Lingchu sit in the position of Patriarch of the He clan!
He Lingchu"s father had already spent all of his time and effort on living in peace in his later years. He rarely asked about the matters of the family, but he would definitely not sit idly by when he needed to fight for his son.
On the other hand, his elder brother would often be at his father"s house, running up and down to ask about the situation and win the favor of Old Master He.
These two brothers were openly friendly, but secretly, it was already a situation where they were competing against each other.
