Xiang Jianhao met Gu Xijue's sincere eyes and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
He has known Gu Xijue for many years, and he admires this junior in some aspects. However, it was all in the business world, and in the financial storm circle, he had seen the way he eliminated his opponents.
Decisive, neat, killing people with a borrowed knife, killing without a single blow... He really does everything he can.
Those practices are not in line with the moral values of a pure man, but they are essential skills in the profit field. Gu Xijue never does loss-making business, but if he goes into this muddy water, he really may not get any benefits. Since
The money is gone, then...it's for people?!
Xiang Jianhao looked at Xi Haitang, and then remembered the scene at Qin Hao's house before, and he felt a little more clear.
For Gu Xijue, this was a gamble with an unpredictable outcome, but he was willing to risk everything. This determination moved him.
Xi Haitang, who had been listening silently, her eyelashes trembled slightly. She could see the admiration for Gu Xijue in her father's eyes, but he was reluctant to embarrass her. The softest nerve in his heart was deeply touched. There is no one like him in this world.
The more important things in relationships are responsibility and filial piety.
"Dad...if you don't object, he and I can give it a try."
Using my marriage to protect your lifelong efforts is what I, a daughter, should do. For more than 20 years, I have failed to do anything for you. This time, I will try my best.

On the top floor of the hospital, Xi Haitang stood silently. Gu Xijue slowly approached and handed her the hot cocoa he just bought from the vending machine.
He himself drinks a cup of pure black coffee and is used to the bitter taste.
"Isn't it aggrieved to make such a choice?" He knew her reluctance.
Xi Haitang was stunned, "What?"
"Exchanging marriage for benefits is not in line with your concept of love, I understand."
Xi Haitang gently clenched the cup in her hand. The temperature of the hot cocoa spread through the cup to the palm of her hand. A warm and slightly painful feeling penetrated into her body. Her concept of love had already been broken when she was 18 years old.
Already...
While she was silent, Gu Xijue walked to the other side of the roof and answered the phone. His black leather shoes creaked on the thick snow, and it was extremely quiet on this cold night. He held the phone in his hand and listened to Qin
Hao reported what was going on in the financial crisis circle, while looking back at her slender figure, feeling her depression.
As if sensing his absent-mindedness, Qin Hao on the other end suddenly sighed heavily, "Jue... do you really like her that much?"
Qin Hao couldn't believe it. Although Gu Xijue's capital was there, the risk was still there if he wanted to settle in an investment bank in the name of Jin Jue. After knowing him for so many years, this was the first time he had seen him so irrational.
Business and private matters were mixed together, and he seemed to be trapped in a certain blind spot. If he could not break through, he would never be able to get relief.
After hearing Qin Hao's question, Gu Xijue was slightly stunned. He looked up at the lonely night sky and saw the thin snowflakes falling. He reached out to catch them. They melted in the palm of his hand and felt cold and moist. That night seven years ago,
It seemed to be the same, the way she stood by the window made him feel lost...
There was a slight soreness in the throat, and Gu Xijue's eyes were blurry, unable to distinguish between dreams and reality, and his voice passed through the air desolately, "Actually, I don't like her...but I can't help but like her."
In the prehistoric era, the Cambrian era was desolate and the chalk was complex. After that, there was the era of no love. The vicissitudes of the sea and the land, because of the elimination of love and desire, the earth will never grow old and the sky will never be deserted.
In his past life, he had always been stuck in the loveless era. It was she who single-handedly took him out of the loveless era.
It turns out that a person's loneliness is not something he is born with, but begins when he begins to understand feelings.
He is not in love, but in a kind of poison. Witch poison is more deadly than love. You can quit drugs, but not this one. He has no choice but to obey.

Xiaochen and Yunhen stood face to face, with identical expressions of surprise on their faces. Their eyes met, and they could see the same doubt in each other's eyes.
"What?! My mommy is getting married to your daddy?!"
"Well, that seems to be true."
"What's going on?!"
"That's it...from now on, your mommy will also be my mommy, and my daddy will also be your daddy." Although this sounds good, it is so beautiful that it seems unrealistic.
"Then does it mean that grandpa has also become our common partner?!"
"certainly."
Xiaochen wrinkled his little eyebrows, feeling that he needed to ask some questions clearly first, "Yunhen, tell me what relatives you have."
"ah?!"
"Ah, what, come on, I want to compare and see, which one of us has more relatives?"
“So what if there are too many?”
"More people will suffer. Look, after my mommy married your daddy, I just got an extra daddy, but you got an extra mommy and a grandpa, so it's more cost-effective for you.
, I am more at a disadvantage!"
The corners of Yun Hen's mouth twitched a little. How could she tell the difference so clearly? Girls are really stingy!
"Hurry up and say it!" Xiaochen refused, pulling on Yunhen's sleeve and shaking it.
Yunhen had no choice but to tell her, "I have very few relatives. My grandparents have passed away long ago. I only have one uncle. He and my father are half-brothers. He has been living abroad since we got married. I am very sad."
I seldom see him."
"anything else?"
"No more. That's it."
"Ah?!" Xiaochen was dumbfounded, "You...you are just such a relative, and you still don't see each other often?!"
"Um."
"Then I have more than you. I have a grandpa and an uncle!" Xiaochen opened his hands and counted, "Ah, I also have Su Xin's mother, but I can't share this with you, absolutely not!"
"You are so stingy!"
"Girls are all stingy!" Xiaochen stamped his feet and widened his eyes angrily.
Seeing that she was angry, Yunhen had to squeeze out a smile to comfort her, "Xiaochen, don't be angry, I will share with you half of all the good things I have in the future. By the way, you will take the car home with me after school today, and we will
