“There will only be sweetness in our marriage. There will be nothing unhappy about it.” Xiaoze said, “Those people must be so envious of you!”
“They are envious that your in-laws treat you well and treat you like their own daughter. You don’t have any conflicts with your husband or your in-laws. You’re still the daughter of the Jiang family.” Xiaoze’s face was full of imagination. “In everyone’s eyes, you’re a winner in life! No one can live a happier life than you. No one can live a smoother life than you.”
Yuexi gradually lost herself in the flatbread that Xiaoze had painted for her.
She lived with the Gu family as if she was at home.
There were no issues with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
She was treated like a biological daughter by the Gu family.
She was loved by her in -laws.
Everyone knew that her in-laws treated her well.
Why were her in-laws so good to her? Wasn’t it because she was worth it?
Didn’t this mean that she was especially rare, which was why the Gu family treated her like a treasure?
She had so much face!
She would become the envy of everyone.
Yuexi took a deep breath and asked again, “You will treat me well, right?”
“For you, I even sold my own family out. Once my father finds out about this, no matter how much he dotes on me, he won’t forgive me.” Yuexi’s eyes darkened. She lowered her eyelids slightly to hide the expression in her eyes. “He might even kick me out of the house.”
“At that time, I will not be the daughter of the Jiang family at all. I can only rely on you and the Gu family.” Yuexi looked up at Xiaoze. “When the time comes, will you still treat me well?”
“Of course!” Xiaoze said firmly and sincerely, “I like you as a person, not the
Jiang family.”
“We’re childhood sweethearts. We’ve known each other for so long and have been together for so long. When you were underage, I didn’t dare to say that I liked you. I could only wait silently. It wasn’t easy to wait for you to become an adult. It wasn’t easy for us to be together openly. I can only cherish our relationship more,” Xiaoze said affectionately.
“If, and I mean if, you’re really no longer the daughter of the Jiang family, and
Jiang Chengye vented his anger on you because of this matter, and if he said
something that definitely makes you angry…” Xiaoze smiled slightly. He said nervously, “I’ll actually be happy.”
Yuexi’s eyes trembled as she heard Xiaoze say, “In this way, you’ll be mine. You’ll be a member of the Gu family, not the Jiang family. The two of us can really be loyal to the Gu family and our contribute to our small family together.”
“At that time, you won’t be tied down anymore. My parents will be even happier.” Xiaoze’s words were extravagant.
If Jixuan and Jiang Xun were here, they would definitely pout and mock him for lying to a fool.
However, Yuexi was really convinced by him.
She looked at him with a touched expression and said, “I believe you.” Xiaoze was already on the verge of losing his patience.
Finally hearing Yuexi say that she trusted him, Xiaoze didn’t dare to be too anxious this time. He could only patiently put in a good word for her before slowly turning the topic back to Chengye Group’s trade secrets. “Yuexi, can you tell me Chengye Group’s offer? This is really important to us.”
Yuexi nodded and said a number, “I remember it very clearly. I won’t remember wrongly. Don’t worry.”
Xiaoze was extremely excited.
He had a rough idea of Chengye Group’s price range.
With Yuexi’s brain, it was impossible for her to fabricate something out of thin air.
What did she know!
Even if she wanted to fabricate it, it would not be accurate. She could not fabricate a decent number.
Not to mention a number that was within a reasonable range.
Therefore, the number Yuexi said was highly credible.
He submitted it to the company and asked the company’s staff to verify it and confirm its authenticity.
Then, based on this price, they would calculate and discuss the best price for the Gu Corporation.
Xiaoze held Yuexi’s shoulders happily and lowered his head to kiss her forehead. “Yuexi, I was too anxious just now and spoke to you a little harshly.
I’m sorry.”
“I promise that I won’t do this again.” Xiaoze put on a regretful expression and said softly.
He let go of Yuexi’s shoulder and wrapped her hand in his palm instead. He pulled her hand to his heart. “If this is successful, we’ll get engaged. No one can bully you in the future.”
“I’ll do whatever it takes to help you if you want to act in anything or participate in any variety show. What others have, you have to have too. Other people have backers and backgrounds, but it’s not like you don’t.” Xiaoze affectionately painted a grand picture for Yuexi.
“An engagement?” Yuexi was delighted.
Up until now, although she was with Xiaoze and claimed to be his fiancé, they were not engaged yet.
Now that she finally heard Xiaoze’s promise, Yuexi temporarily put down her unhappiness.
Xiaoze nodded. “I’ve been quite busy recently. Once the business deal we’re competing with Chengye Group for is settled, I’ll make some time and we’ll get engaged.”
“Don’t worry, the competition with Chengye Group won’t affect the relationship between our two families.” Xiaoze continued, “Whether it’s your father, my parents, or us, we’re all people who separate public and private matters. We all know that competition is inevitable in the business world. I won’t bring the unhappiness of the business competition into the relationship between our two families.”
“At least, our Gu family will never do that,” Xiaoze said after a pause.
Yuexi nodded.
“Yuexi, I have to hurry to the company to deal with this matter. I can’t accompany you today.” Xiaoze added, ‘When this matter is settled, I’ll definitely spend more quality time with you.”
“Alright.” Yuexi had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Xiaoze was waiting for her to agree. As soon as she nodded, Xiaoze immediately let go of her and ran to the door. He changed his shoes and went to the office.
Yuexi’s face darkened. About half an hour after Xiaoze left, Yuexi also went out to buy an identical USB drive and put it away in case of emergency. She could use it to appease Xiaoze when the time came.
Xiaoze went to look for Qinghui when he returned to the company and told him the price offered by Chengye Group.
Qinghui heard that Yuexi did not copy the document into the USB drive in order to avoid being caught, and instead memorized the price. He nodded and praised her, “Jiang Yuexi’s brain is much better than before. She’s very thoughtful.”
In addition, the price that Yuexi offered was indeed similar to their guess.
Qinghui was even more convinced.
He immediately called a meeting to discuss the Gu Corporation’s offer.
At night, Yuexi went to sleep alone.
She wasn’t in the mood to care whether Xiaoze would come back or not, or when he would.
After she left the Jiang family today, she couldn’t muster up the energy to do anything.
She added some lavender essential oil into the aromatherapy machine and opened the door. The fragrance of lavender was sprayed out of the machine along with a fine and gentle mist..
