Chapter 141: Mrs. Gu’s Softened Attitude

Mrs. Gu arrived at the banquet to find it was already over and the guests had left.

“Madam, it seems something happened to Chu Zhaoyi. The Xie family has temporarily suspended the banquet,” her husband, Mr. Gu, explained, leaning close to her ear.

Mrs. Gu sighed heavily, feeling a faint sense of guilt when she thought of Chu Zhaoyi. How could something have happened to him?

“I thought our son was just eating, drinking, and wasting his days, but I didn’t expect him to be so capable,” Mr. Gu remarked with a touch of admiration.

Mrs. Gu glared at him, the Suzhou embroidery of lotus patterns on her cheongsam rustling as she moved. Was this the time to say such things?

After Mr. Gu initially intervened to prevent Gu Yusen from being subjected to family discipline, he refused to show his face again, instead returning every night to speak up for his precious son.

It made her seem like the villain.

Mr. Gu lost his usual stern and dignified demeanor in front of outsiders, a hint of flattery on his face. There was even some moss from the wall his son had climbed on his suit. “Isn’t it the truth?”

Gu Yusen and Lu Eryin, those mischievous monkeys, had grown up together, playing from childhood. There was a time when they were tinkering with something, several years ago, when they were both still underage, and their parents hadn’t bothered with them.

If it weren’t for this incident, they probably would still be kept in the dark.

What business people fear most is not keeping up with the times, and in recent years, AI large language model technology has advanced by leaps and bounds. Many companies have seized this opportunity to become well-known throughout the country.

Among them, there was a new upstart company. The main technical director inside, no one knew where the company’s CEO had dug him up, spending a lot of money to invest in research.

But he actually researched something of value.

Once the technology they mastered was released, it caused quite a stir in the industry.

At that time, they had discussed this new upstart company. Although it was not as rich in foundation as their large families, it looked like it had a bright future.

Apart from the talent of the technical staff, the CEO was also a smart person, probably also had some background. He invested a lot of money at the beginning, when large language models were not as popular as they are now, which shows his foresight.

Everyone wanted a piece of the pie, and the Gu family naturally did too. They all wanted to cooperate with this company, and it wasn’t surprising that they chose the Gu family. The Gu family’s foundation was not just something to talk about.

At that time, Gu Yusen volunteered to lead this case, making a fortune for the Gu family and completely consolidating the Gu family’s status.

But they never expected that the boss of this company was their own son.

Thinking of this, Mr. Gu couldn’t help but feel a little proud.

Mrs. Gu glared at him fiercely.

This morning, Lu Eryin had ostentatiously led a large group of people to take Gu Yusen away right under her nose.

And he still had the nerve to be proud here!

“Wife, let’s just let them be, okay?”

“I think that child A-Yi is also extremely good, and the two children like each other.”

“What if the Gu family has no heir?” Mrs. Gu knew about the feelings between the two children, did he think she wanted to play the villain? It wasn’t for the Gu family!

She turned her head away, the emerald earrings tracing a cold arc against her neck.

“Children and grandchildren have their own blessings.” Mr. Gu took out a yellowed photo from his suit pocket – it was a picture of Gu Yusen at the age of three, grinning in front of a piano. “If they’re willing, they can adopt a child, or find a child from a collateral line to raise.”

“If we don’t adopt one, then we just won’t adopt, when they’re old they will worry about themselves, no one to take care of them in their final years, at worst sell all of Gu’s Company”

He had said this to Mrs. Gu several times in recent days, but at that time, Mrs. Gu was extremely angry with Gu Yusen. Mother and son were both stubborn, and neither was willing to give in first.

Gu Yusen stubbornly refused to eat almost anything for three days, thankfully he was in good health and could withstand the torment.

Mrs. Gu felt both heartache and anger, and her attitude had already gradually softened. But she never expected that this morning Lu Eryin would ostentatiously step on her face!

“We’ll talk about it later, let’s find the two children first.” Mrs. Gu didn’t completely reject the idea this time, but just left these words, and ordered people to continue searching for Gu Yusen and Chu Zhaoyi.

Hopefully nothing bad has happened.
