It was so cold that Du Xiaoxian felt that she even had difficulty breathing. However, her mind was abnormally clear. Fang Yaru's words entered her ears. "If Nianbin is willing to get married to Xia Xiaowan, we won't say anything if you will stay by his side. As for Xiaowan, I will need to ask for mercy from her. She is a sensible person. Although she feels wronged, she will surely give me a face. However, Nianbin loves you so much and he would rather suffer himself than let you suffer the slightest bit of grievance. So, his father and I really have no other choice but to beg you. Of course, if you have any requests, just say them. Although the company is in trouble, we still can make you comfortable for the rest of your life."
The moment she saw Fang Yaru, Du Xiaoxian already had a premonition. But she didn't expect that Fang Yaru was here to beg her to leave Gu Nianbin. Moreover, Gu Group's safety depended on her!
She was even willing to give her life for
The financial war between Jiang Group and Gu Group had almost caused a sensation in G City. The financial industry was even more bustling, with magazines and newspapers reporting long stories about it every day. Retail investors who held shares in the two groups were half frightened and half excited, taking a "wait and see" approach.Du Xiaoxian went to the company every day. Although no one purposely said anything to her, she heard a little about what had happened. The ordinary employees in the company were not strong enough, and all of them looked as if they were facing a great enemy. Their faces were filled with fear. The higher-ups still appeared calm. But they were also cagey. The focus of the company had been shifted to the Finance Department. Gu Nianbin and Shao Boqing stayed there every day. When they entered the department, their faces were solemn. When they came out, their faces were still solemn. They didn't show any changes. This made the employees even more
Gu Nianbin came home early that night. Just after nine o'clock, Du Xiaoxian heard the sound of the key as he opened the door.She hurried to the entrance to greet him, and when Gu Nianbin saw her after pushing open the door, he asked, "Have you eaten yet?""Yes," Du Xiaoxian replied, "but I was too lazy to cook, so I ate at a restaurant downstairs."Gu Nianbin asked, "What did you have?""Egg-Fried Rice," Du Xiaoxian answered, taking his coat and putting it on the armrest of the sofa, "from the corner shop, it was delicious."As she replied, she also ran into the kitchen to prepare some tea. While taking out the tea leaves, her hand trembled and more tea leaves came out than was necessary. Then she took out some, trying to put them back into the tea jar. However, as she turned around, her elbows bumped the teacup, which was swept to the ground. With a crisp sound, it shattered into pieces. The ground was covered in fin
"Guangxian, why are you up?" Fang Yaru walked over to support Gu Guangxian. "Go back to your room and sleep. Why do you care about him?""Let him say," said Gu Guangxian. Unlike Fang Yaru, who was impatient, he was calm and unhurried when facing things, and he had a sense of aging dignity that made other revere."Mom and Dad," Gu Nianbin pulled Du Xiaoxian to his side. He had a firm attitude, and said clearly in a serious tone. "I'm going to marry Du Xiaoxian. We're going to get the certificate tomorrow. At present, the company is in trouble. We won't hold the wedding for the time being. After the crisis in the company is over, we will hold the wedding. If you feel that having such a daughter-in-law is very embarrassing and don't want to bless us, you can refuse to attend the wedding.""You! You're simply disobedient!" Fang Yaru was so angry that her blood pressure went up again, and she staggered, "What is this? Giving us the ultimatum? You re
Gu Nianbin came home very late. He opened the door and saw that Du Xiaoxian was sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at him blankly."Why aren't you sleeping?" Gu Nianbin frowned as he changed his shoes."Is Master alright?" Du Xiaoxian's voice was soft and gentle, slightly hoarse, and it sounded like a veil in the silent night, which gently slid over Gu Nianbin's eardrums. When she went downstairs, she heard Fang Yaru's shout. It was as if it wasn't good. She stopped and saw a group of servants standing downstairs, and their eyes were filled with disdain. Those gazes were too familiar, so she chose to flee."He's alright. He took the medicine and has already fallen asleep. Doctor Liang is also there. Everything will be fine." He walked over and sat beside her, unable to conceal his deep fatigue between his eyes. He knitted his brows and turned to look at her. Out of the corner of his eye, however, he saw a suitcase beside the wall a
After asking that, Du Huayue had arrived at the door of the room. Seeing that it was Du Xiaoxian, he heaved a sigh of relief, "You didn't even tell me in advance. I thought it was a thief." He quickly helped Du Xiaoxian bring the suitcase in."I was afraid you were sleeping," said Du Xiaoxian, "Since I have the key, I come here by myself."Du Huayue looked at the big suitcase and suddenly felt that something was wrong. He looked at Du Xiaoxian in surprise and said, "This is …""I move back and will live with you." Du Xiaoxian smiled and dragged the suitcase to her room. It was the same as what it looked like when she left. Du Huayue didn't move anything. She opened the suitcase and put the clothes into the closet one by one. Du Huayue stood on the side and looked at her for a long time before carefully asking her, "Xiaoxian, you, you and Gu Nianbin…""We broke up," Du Xiaoxian said calmly. "This time, it's true.""Why?
"Why did you bring him here?" Ling Yun glanced at Jiang Kaiwei out of the corner of his eyes and lowered his voice, "He doesn't play mahjong. Doesn't he feel boring if he just sits with us? Besides, Boqing will come later. Now that the two of you have fought against each other like this, can you still enjoy playing together?"Shen Li showed a helpless look on his face. "What can I do if he insists on following me? Besides, is he someone I can control?" He paused for a moment and then said, "But I was also confused. He's been quite interested in this nightclub lately and has come here with me several times."Ling Yun took a sip of wine and said, "Your words remind me of seeing him in Palace Club two days ago. He sat at the bar there drinking alone.""Did he?" Shen Li waved the wine in his glass and said, "I think he might feel tired due to the fight these days. So he wanted to relax.""I really don't understand." Ling Yun said. "Why
Since being scolded by Xia Nanze for drunk driving last time, Xia Xiaowan had learned her lesson. As long as she didn't drink excessively and kept sober, nothing wrong would happen. Before returning home, she first went to the bathroom to wash her face and remove her makeup. Then, she walked along the curb for ten minutes to get rid of alcohol breath. In this way, when she returned home, she could muddle through. Anyway, Xia Nanze did not stay in the living room every night to wait for her.There weren't many people on the streets in the middle of the night, but it didn't appear deserted. In a bustling city like this, even it was quiet in the middle of the night, there were always neon lights flashing along the streets. Outlined by colorful scenery lights, the buildings opposite her appeared to be large crystal boxes, and she was walking slowly through these crystal boxes.Xia Xiaowan enjoyed this serenity. It was like she was in a silent world of fairy tal
Jiang Kaiwei chased Xia Xiaowan to the alley's entrance and finally caught her.Ever since he rescued Xia Xiaowan in the alley, his mind had been somewhat confused as if he was dreaming and dizzy. There was always a layer of veil in front of him, and he could not see everything around him clearly as if there was an illusory background.He didn't know why he wanted to grab Xia Xiaowan. However, when he grabbed her, he ignored Xia Xiaowan's punches and kicks. He put her on his shoulder and stuffed her into his car on the side of the street.After coming out of the nightclub, he had been following Xia Xiaowan in his car from a far distance. He even didn't turn on the lights of the car. He saw the three men who had been following Xia Xiaowan and knew what they were going to do. However, he did not deal with them in advance. He just thought that it had nothing to do with him. That woman was so annoying and she should be taught a lesson. He only thou
