About ten minutes later, Gu Zheng and Li Yulan appeared in front of Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou together.
Ling Tianyou stood up, greeted Gu Zheng; "Chairman Gu, hello."
Gu Zheng was slightly startled, seemingly surprised that even at this point, Ling Tianyou’s address was still so distant.
"Sorry, I had so matters to handle, sorry for the wait." Gu Zheng looked at Ling Tianyou and Gu Ningyue and said, "You haven’t had dinner yet, right? Let’s chat while eating. Xiao Yu, serve the dishes!"
Xiao Yu responded, instructed the servants to lay out the dishes, and left under the guidance of the butler.
"Sit down!" Gu Zheng gestured with his hand.
Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou nodded, sat shoulder to shoulder opposite Gu Zheng and Li Yulan.
At this mont, it was gradually getting dark outside, and the servants had turned on the lights, illuminating the whole room brightly.
Under this dazzling light, Ling Tianyou and Gu Ningyue sitting together appeared like a perfect couple, indescribably suitable and a match made in heaven.
Even Gu Zheng couldn’t help but feel that they were extrely well-suited for each other.
"Ning Yue hasn’t been back for a long ti." Gu Zheng lifted his wine glass, smiled, and said, "Today is also Mid-Autumn Festival, President Ling is here too, let’s take this opportunity to have a drink together! Ning Yue is young, I haven’t been an adequate father in the past, didn’t really manage Ning Yue well. If Ning Yue causes any displeasure to President Ling in the future, President Ling, please bear with her!"
Listening to these words, Gu Ningyue couldn’t help but feel these words were a bit sickening.
How Gu Zheng treated the original character and the original character’s mother, has he forgotten?
He and Li Yulan truly make a pair; their thick skin is surprising.
Ling Tianyou raised his wine glass and said, "Ning Yue is great, Chairman Gu need not worry. Even if one day Ning Yue does sothing, I will not harm her. Furthermore, I believe Ning Yue is so kind-hearted, no one with a conscience would bear to let her suffer any grievances."
Gu Ningyue smiled with pursed lips, how co she never noticed Ling Tianyou was so articulate? If you’re good at speaking, just speak more!
Gu Zheng seed to catch the undertone of Ling Tianyou’s words and then revealed so regret on his face. "President Ling is right, Ning Yue is such a good child, indeed she deserves to be treated well by those around her!"
With those words, Gu Zheng drained the wine in his glass.
After slowly taking a sip, Gu Ningyue couldn’t help but glance at Gu Zheng several tis.
Is this still her materialistic father who treats her like air?
How could he say such things? Did these words truly co from Gu Zheng’s mouth?
Didn’t they say, "A dog’s mouth can’t produce ivory"?
Could it be... "When a person is about to die, their words are kind"?
"I and Ning Yue are planning to get engaged, at the beginning of next month on the ninth." Ling Tianyou looked at Gu Zheng and said, "By then, I hope you and your wife will co to witness the event."
Gu Zheng nodded upon hearing this, then looked at Ling Tianyou and said, "President Ling being with Ning Yue is a good thing. As her father, I have not fulfilled my responsibilities towards Ning Yue over the years. For Ning Yue’s marriage this ti, I have nothing to give her, this card has ten million, consider it as dowry for Ning Yue!"
Speaking, Gu Zheng placed a card on the table.
Gu Ningyue was sowhat surprised, originally during this return with Ling Tianyou, she did not intend to get a single penny from Gu Zheng.
Unexpectedly, there is an unexpected delight.
Although this ten million doesn’t an much to her now.
Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou exchanged a glance, then looked at Gu Zheng, montarily at a loss for words.
Finally, it was Ling Tianyou who accepted the card on behalf of Gu Ningyue and thanked Gu Zheng for the gesture.
Li Yulan was disgruntled internally, why could Ling Tianyou and Gu Ningyue sit in front of her like this today?
While her children are one in a ntal hospital and one living a hard life in prison?
The four ate while covertly observing each other with their own thoughts.
Gu Zheng and Ling Tianyou discussed the current situation in A City, and when Xiang Bei was ntioned, Gu Ningyue glanced at Li Yulan.
She seed to have no feelings, just quietly eating her food.
"I heard Xiang Bei treats his wife well, hasn’t abandoned his wife through all these years." Ling Tianyou spoke with intention, "Since returning to A City, many girls have sought Xiang Bei, but there’s never been any scandal about him, shows President Xiang has a good character."
Li Yulan thought to herself, with her around, how could Xiang Bei take notice of other won?
She believes Xiang Bei only has her in his heart, will never have a place for other won, nor will he be attracted to other pretty won.
No matter how young, he will only like her.
Even if her age is now beyond youth, she believes that her bond with Xiang Bei, even his legitimate wife couldn’t replace.
Gu Zheng responded to Ling Tianyou, "Maybe so! So people always appear one way on the surface, yet are completely different behind the scenes. Xiang Bei is deep and calculating, many things are unclear."
Speaking, Gu Zheng gave Li Yulan a glance, "Did you prepare the things I asked you to prepare?"
Li Yulan nodded, "Prepared, but why did you ask to prepare these things, Master?"
Starting yesterday, Li Yulan instructed others to clean a guest room and had so items prepared inside, including toys from Gu Heng and Gu Wanwan’s childhood.
Gu Zheng sipped the chicken soup in front of him, then said to Li Yulan, "You will know after the al."
Upon hearing this, both Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou were curious, what was Gu Zheng up to, why did he suddenly ask Li Yulan to prepare these things?
Was it ant to give her and Ling Tianyou a show of power, or was there sothing else? For the first ti, Gu Ningyue couldn’t decipher the intent.
Slowly eating the al, Gu Ningyue’s gaze swept to her birth mother’s room, and she was almost involuntarily speaking to Gu Zheng, "Later, I wish to visit my mother, haven’t lit incense for her in a long ti."
Gu Zheng nodded and did not reject Gu Ningyue: "Alright."
His tone was very calm, even a bit gentle, a complete shift from the forrly distant attitude towards the renovation of the mother’s room.
If one didn’t know better, they might think Gu Zheng harbored great affection for his late wife.
Actually, insiders all knew, Gu Zheng not only didn’t love Gu Ningyue as a daughter but bore no love even for this daughter’s birth mother, his legitimate wife.
Perhaps there was a bit of affection, but that was rely attracted to the mother’s natural beauty, nothing more!
