CH 91

When Gu Qianyan returned to Gu’s house, Grandpa Gu hadn’t slept yet and was waiting to discuss tomorrow’s shareholders’ meeting with him. As the company’s vice president, Gu Qianyan’s one-year disappearance had relieved the elders, but they couldn’t help but wonder what these two were up to. Recently, the elders’ lives were not going well. They had heard rumors that Gu Qianyan had and accident, and with Grandpa Gu’s crazy backlash, they had basically believed that Gu Qianyan would not return. After all, Gu Qianyan was Grandpa Gu’s lifeblood… So, facing Grandpa Gu’s counterattack, the elders dared not do anything.

“Be a little nicer to them tomorrow,” Grandpa Gu said, “after all, they are just the jumping grasshopper after autumn, they won’t last long.”

In fact, Gu Qianyan was impressed with Grandpa Gu. Although his current memory was not complete, he vaguely knew that the old man did not initially advocate for taking action against these elders. After all, these people were the ones who fought alongside Grandpa Gu to build the business empire.

It seems that this old man is also a ruthless person in his heart.

But if he is not ruthless, he cannot do big business.

“I know,” Gu Qianyan nodded, “I will definitely be very polite to them. After all, they are my elders.”

Grandpa Gu fell silent. He suddenly felt that his grandson had improved his character after going out for a year, but why did he feel that he was more… cunning than before?

Before, an elder wanted to introduce his granddaughter to Gu Qianyan. After Gu Qianyan found out, he sarcastically criticized them, and it can be said that he offended all the elders in the company. So, when he took over Gu’s, he quickly took action against the elders. On the one hand, he really couldn’t stand these old foxes causing trouble in the company, on the other hand, the elders also didn’t sit back and do nothing, and they did a lot of things behind the scenes.

Before returning to his room, Gu Qianyan specifically asked, “I want to ask, what is my annual salary for this position in the company?”

Grandpa Gu : “…”

He wanted to pick up the slipper by his foot and throw it at this kid.

“As you know, I have amnesia and can’t remember many things clearly, so do I receive a dividend every year or an annual salary? Also, how many shares do I hold in Gu’s family? You can tell me tomorrow, I’m not in a hurry,” Gu Qianyan said thoughtfully.

Grandpa Gu fell silent.

“But it’s better if you tell me earlier, after all, we should calculate these things clearly.”

Grandpa Gu : “I need to rest now.”

“Oh, good night.”

Grandpa Gu suddenly realized that after sending his grandson out to train for a year, this kid…seemed to be even more careful with money than before. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

Jiang Sihan had planned to sleep early tonight because his body was already very tired. But he couldn’t fall asleep. So, he did something he wouldn’t have done before: he secretly booked a plane ticket and rushed back to the city overnight.

It was almost one o’clock in the morning now. He wore a hat and a mask and headed straight to the urban village. The taxi driver wanted to chat with him, but seeing him remaining silent, the driver gave up.

The past gradually surfaced in his mind: the words Xiao Zhou said to him, as well as his own feelings when he promised Liu Ge. In fact, he didn’t not understand, he just didn’t want to understand. He had already realized his feelings as early as he felt something was different between Beibei and Xiao Zhou.

Jiang Sihan walked quickly to the downstairs of the building in the urban village and realized that he had forgotten to bring his access card. He could only stand downstairs.

He looked up and saw that the lights on the third floor had already gone out. The urban village was very quiet at this time.

Jiang Sihan suddenly froze. What was he here for?

Beibei and Xiao Zhou were already in love and together. Was it appropriate for him to say or do anything now?

He also promised Liu Ge that he could not date for these two years. Although a year had passed, he had already made the promise.

Zhan Qi was busy running his own business and had only returned home for the New Year’s Eve. He was preparing to eat some supper when he saw Jiang Sihan standing downstairs. He walked over and tentatively called out, “Is it Xiao Jiang?”

Judging from his figure and temperament, he looked like Xiao Jiang.

Jiang Sihan turned around and saw that it was Zhan Qi, so he took off his mask and said, “Xiao Zhan, it’s me.”

“Did you come back to rest? Did you forget your key?” Zhan Qi thought of this and said, “Then come to my house to sleep. I have a guest room.”

Jiang Sihan shook his head. “No, I’m going to the airport right away and rush back to the set. I have a scene to shoot tomorrow afternoon.”

Zhan Qi was about to ask why he rushed back, but he suddenly remembered the Moments post from Xiao Zhou, and he understood everything. He sighed, “How about this, I have nothing else to do anyway. I’ll take you to the airport and we can chat along the way.”

“It’s too much trouble for you. You just finished work, right?”

Zhan Qi was a kind-hearted person and said, “It’s mainly because you are now a celebrity, taking a taxi is not convenient. Besides, the airport is not too far from here. Okay, it’s decided.”

The two sat in the car. There weren’t many cars or people on the road, so they had a smooth ride.

Zhan Qi said to Xiao Jiang, “At that time, Sister Pian and I were betting on whether Beibei would be with you or Xiao Zhou. And now, Beibei is dating Xiao Zhou. Hey, to be honest, I also feel a bit uncomfortable about it. Of course, don’t get me wrong, I no longer have feelings for Beibei. It’s just a simple feeling.”

Jiang Sihan smiled, “I know.”

“Xiao Jiang, before Xiao Zhou came to rent the apartment, I thought you and Beibei were a good match. Why didn’t you confess to her?” Zhan Qi asked.

“At that time, even having a meal for myself was a problem for me. I never thought about these things,” Jiang Sihan said calmly, “After that, I signed with the company, and I promised Brother Liu that I wouldn’t date for two years. Now, I’m busy every day, and I don’t even have time to catch my breath. How can I tell Beibei? But it doesn’t matter now. Beibei and Xiao Zhou are good together. Xiao Zhou is reliable and treats her well.”

Zhan Qi nodded, “Xiao Zhou is a good person, and they are a good match. Xiao Jiang, it’s good that you can come to terms with it yourself. Feelings are just like that, you just need to take your time.”

Jiang Sihan laughed helplessly, “You speak like that, I’m not used to it.”

“Here’s what we’ll do. If Xiao Zhou treats Beibei badly, we’ll team up and beat him up until he’s black and blue!” Initially, Zhan Qi amused himself, but then he became serious. “Beibei likes Xiao Zhou, so we shouldn’t disturb them. But if he’s not good to her, we must intervene as her family. In the end, who doesn’t want them to be happy?”

Jiang Sihan responded with an “uh-huh,” “I also want them to be happy.”

After that, neither of them spoke for a while.

After a while, Zhan Qi asked again, “Have you written any songs recently?”

“Yes. I even recorded them on my phone. Do you want to listen?”

“Sure, play it.”

Jiang Sihan opened his phone and played the song he had recorded.

The melody was pleasant and the lyrics were cute and warm.

Zhan Qi asked, “What song is this?”

“<I Think You Look Like A Kindergarten Teacher>.”

Luo Bei didn’t know that Jiang Sihan had rushed to her building by plane all night, and neither Jiang Sihan nor Zhan Qi mentioned it again, as if it was just a dream.

The next day on his way to work, Gu Qianyan updated his WeChat Moments and happened to see Jiang Sihan’s like and comment—

“Can you be more stingy? But still, congratulations!”

He smiled and sent Jiang Sihan a fifty cents red envelope, which Jiang Sihan accepted without any chat.

Among men, many things are understood without saying.

Gu Qianyan appreciated Jiang Sihan, and Jiang Sihan also understood Gu Qianyan. In Gu Qianyan’s words, they were like brothers who didn’t need to say anything, but understood everything.

When Luo Bei returned home from work, she happened to run into Lei Yuhao who came to see the child. Recently, under Lei Yuhao’s thick-skinned approach, she could still exchange a few words with him.

However, today the person who came was not just Lei Yuhao, there was also a man with him who looked like a star in terms of his dress and appearance.

Lei Yuhao still tried to establish a close relationship with the “girl friend” Luo Bei and said, “Ms. Luo, I had a batch of fresh seafood air-shipped, and I just delivered a box to Grandma Luo earlier.”

Luo Bei was helpless. Lei Yuhao had actually been doing well lately, he came to see Pianpian and the child every day, but Pianpian still didn’t relent. If he came to see the child, she never refused, but if they wanted to talk about anything else, Pianpian wouldn’t give him a chance.

“Thank you.” Luo Bei didn’t have much to talk about with Lei Yuhao, so she quickly went upstairs.

Lei Yuhao was actually quite happy during this period. He received guidance from Gu Qianyan, and he avoided topics related to reconciliation and getting back together. He also wrote a guarantee letter to Zhao Panpan, promising that no one, including himself, would fight for custody of their child. As a result, Zhao Panpan’s attitude towards him had improved a lot in the past few days.

After Luo Bei went upstairs, Lei Yu Hao’s friend suddenly asked, “Who is she? Pianpian’s friend?”

Lei Yuhao turned his head and looked at his friend. He knew his friend’s character well. To put it nicely, he was a playboy, but to put it bluntly, he was a scumbag who left many girls heartbroken.

Thinking of this, Lei Yuhao said, “Do you know Young President Gu? The Young President Gu from the Gu family.”

His friend was taken aback. “I’ve heard of him.”

Gu Qianyan actually had a pretty big reputation in the second-generation circle. He rarely dealt with people like them, but rumors about him were not uncommon.

In short, he was not an easy person to mess with.

“Ms. Luo is Young President Gu’s girlfriend,” Lei Yuhao patted his friend’s shoulder. “My advice to you is, don’t think about anything else. I know a little about this Young President Gu. He never talks about relationships or marriage. Now that he finally has a girlfriend, if you dare to do anything, the Gu family and Chen family will probably eat you alive.”
