Chapter 11: Gu Jia San
Gu Chen, who was standing between Gu Huai Min and Shen Bi Ru, caught sight of me and narrowed his eyes - this was his habitual action every time he saw me, which I had never noticed before. It just so happened that Gu Chen and Xia Ling Cheng did bear some resemblance to each other.
"Sister." Gu Chen seemed to especially like calling me sister, every time he called out sweetly, yet always managed to give me goosebumps.
Although I was reluctant in my heart, I smiled and nodded at him with a smile on my face.
"Let's eat." Gu Huamin ordered the nanny to serve the dishes when he saw that everyone had arrived.
Gu Huamin sat in the main seat, with Shen Bieru on one side and Gu Liuyi on the other. I sat between Gu Liuyi and Gu Chen, sitting up straight.
It's been a long time since we've done this, five people sitting together for dinner, it really feels like home.
"How's business lately?" Gu Huai Min asked coldly, his voice full of majesty.
"The business with the Bai family has already been discussed and an agreement has been reached." Gu Liu replied in a formulaic manner.
Almost everyone knows that the Gu, Xia and Qiao families are three-legged tripod, which can make the whole world tremble with just a move of their fingers. They have an absolute position in the business world.
"Very good." Gu Huai Min was very satisfied, although his voice was still cold and clear, but it was softer than before. He turned his gaze to Gu Chen again and asked: "How's the underworld?"
He lazily peeled the shrimp in his plate and said, "I have to report these things to Grandpa every day. Grandpa says that apart from him, I don't need to ask for anyone else's opinion. What do you want to ask, Dad?"
Gu Huamin pursed his lips and cast an unhappy glance at Gu Chen, no longer speaking.
I quietly ate my meal, without looking around.
"Huai Min, didn't you say the other day that you had found a good match for Liu Yu? Why haven't you talked to him about it?" Shen Bi Ru suddenly changed the subject.
My hand holding the knife and fork paused for a moment.
Gu Huaimin responded coldly.
"It's like that." Shen Bieru smiled and said, "You're not young anymore, and now you've taken over the Gu family business. You should consider getting married. The second miss of the Qiao family, I and your father have met her before. She's pretty and clever, what do you think?"
Gu Liuyi only said, "You decide what's best." In fact, he had long known that his future wife would have to be a rich young lady, whether he liked it or not. For the sake of the Gu family, he didn't have a second choice.
"That's just right, next time you come back, bring the second miss of Qiao's family and get familiar with her first, who knows, maybe we'll become one family." Shen Bieru's eyes shone with cleverness and calculation, "Hua Min, what do you think?"
"Hmm." Gu Huai Min seemed to agree.
The food in my mouth suddenly became hard to swallow, I didn't know whether or not to tell Su Yan this news, but even if I told her it wouldn't change anything, after all the person Gu Liu Yu was going to marry couldn't possibly be her.
This is the distance between Gu Liuyi and Su Yan before, not only in age but also in status.
I have never seen the second daughter of Qiao's family, Qiao Yunge, but I've heard that there is a saying circulating in this city: "When marrying a wife, marry Qiao Yunge; when marrying a husband, marry Qiao Nanmu."
Actually, there's another sentence before that: one should be a person like Qiao Shengxi. The three young masters and misses of the Qiao family are extremely famous, even surpassing Gu LiuYi and Gu Chen.
After this meal, no one said another word.
