03 Outsiders

That night, I actually slept with her in my arms all night.

I know that if I wanted to do something else, she wouldn't object. But I really like her and didn't want to easily destroy this beauty, so although I endured it very hard, I finally held it back.

I know that she is mine sooner or later, but I want to respect her and wait until she is ready.

She slept soundly in my arms, like a child, and slept beautifully all night.

After dawn, she woke up.

I've woken up long ago and have been watching her quietly.

She glanced at me sleepyly, hugged my neck, and took the initiative to kiss my lips.

I hugged her and kissed her passionately.

I was a little excited as I kissed.

At this time, she stopped and looked at me quietly, her eyes full of happy smiles.

"What's wrong?" I asked her, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Wu Zheng...", she smiled softly and hugged me emotionally, "You are so good..."

I was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but laugh.

I think I did it right.

After getting up, we each took a shower and then went to the hotel restaurant for breakfast.

While eating, Yang Qian'er called.

She glanced at her phone and pressed hands-free, "Hey?"

"Xiaojun, will you come to the board meeting this morning?" Yang Qian'er asked.

"I'm eating," Guo Chenjun said, "going later."

"Okay, it starts at half past ten, don't be late," said Yang Qian'er.

"I know," Guo Chenjun said lightly.

Yang Qian'er was silent for a while and cleared her throat, "Xiaojun, that... I didn't mean to do that day. Dad said that just to scare you. He won't really share your shares. Don't be unhappy about this. After the meeting, go home and have a meal together, okay?"

Guo Chenjun didn't say anything, took a deep breath and put down the knife and fork.

"Hey? Are you listening?" Yang Qian'er asked.

"I understand," Guo Chenjun said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will support you."

Yang Qian'er breathed a sigh of relief, "I know you are sensible. We are a family and we must support each other. Okay, you eat, I'll wait for you in the company."

"Yes", Guo Chenjun hung up the phone.

"What does she mean?" I asked.

Guo Chenjun smiled helplessly, "Today we will hold a board meeting. At the meeting, she will officially become the vice chairman of Dongyang Construction Engineering Group. She is afraid that I will hate her because of the last incident and will not support her, so I will do my job first."

"She is afraid that you won't support her?" I wondered, "What does it mean?"

"Dongyang Construction Engineering is a listed company, so major personnel appointments must be passed through the board meeting," she said, "Our Guo family shares are divided into the hands of my father, my mother, my brother, my sister-in-law and me. Only by combining them together can we form an absolute advantage. She needs my vote to get on the position, so she said these good things to me. In addition, I have been managing the group in the past two years, and most of the senior management are mine. If I don't support her, even if she gets on the position, she will not use the people below. Although in the past two months, she has replaced some of my people and replaced the confidants she brought from her parents' home, overall, my people still account for the majority, so she can't offend me now."

"Since you understand her intention, why don't you argue with her?" I asked on purpose.

"It's meaningless, and it's unnecessary," she said. "This is how my aunt was squeezed out. I know that sooner or later I will end up like this."

She cut a piece of steak and fed it to me, "Didn't you say it? The ancestors of our Guo family were buried in the Sanshui Yulong Bureau. The sons in the family were all prodigal sons, and the daughters were all those who supported their sons. My aunt was the one who supported my father at the beginning. Without my aunt, there would be no Dongyang Construction Engineering today. But after my father got married, he began to use various methods to exclude my aunt. When my uncle was still there, he knew to restrain himself. Just two years after my uncle passed away, he used shameful means to seize all my aunt's shares and put them in my mother's name..."

She sighed helplessly, "I pity my aunt has paid so much for the Guo family's business. In the end, she can only be swept out of the house. She went abroad alone and never came back."

"Who is your uncle?" I was a little curious.

"My uncle was a powerful figure in Shencheng during his lifetime," she said, "My aunt originally had a boyfriend, but my uncle fell in love with her. In order to curry favor with my uncle, my father gave my aunt's boyfriend 100,000 yuan and forced him to break up with my aunt. The man disagreed, so my father found someone to beat him seriously and then added 100,000 yuan to him. The man finally asked for one million, and my father agreed, and then the man dumped my aunt. Later, my father forced my aunt to marry my uncle..."

She sighed, "My aunt was very beautiful when she was young. When they got married, my aunt was less than 30 years old, and my uncle was over fifty years old. In those years, relying on my uncle's relationship, Dongyang Construction Engineering obtained a large number of infrastructure projects in Shanghai and made a lot of money. The Guo family has today, and my aunt made a lot of money. But later my uncle passed away. My father felt that my aunt had no value, so he started to burn bridges across the river. The Guo family's assets were more than one billion, but when my aunt went abroad, they only gave her less than ten million."

She smiled helplessly, "This is my dad. In his eyes, his daughter is an outsider and his daughter-in-law is his own, so my sister-in-law is what he really protects."

"Wouldn't you be better if you weren't with me?" I asked.

She shook her head, "It has nothing to do with you. As long as I am in love, it will be the result in the end. Just like last time, when I gave Xiaotong shares, my father strongly opposed it. He said that Xiaotong is an outsider, and if she gets married in the future, this part of the shares will be cheaper than outsiders. The same is true for me. He thinks that I am a daughter, and once I get married, I will definitely divide the shares of the Guo family. Although he didn't say this directly, he already understood his meaning."

Tears of grievance flashed in her eyes.

I gently held her hand, "Xiaojun, you still have me."

She smiled happily and nodded with tears in her eyes, "Yeah!"

"Eat something, after dinner, you go to the company and I will take a taxi back by myself," I said.

"No, I'll give it to you," she said.

"It's too time-consuming," I said.

She fed me another bite of the steak, "You are much more important than that meeting!"
