But the trance only lasted for a moment, and Song Qiao quickly pulled away. She and Gu Jingting were just having fun, and they could say anything nice.
What's more, this man is too dangerous, so it's better to stay away.
She was thinking secretly, but Wen Shuya was stimulated to tears by Gu Jingting's firm words. She could no longer maintain her dignity, "Do you like her that much?"
Gu Jingting said without hesitation, "Of course."
Wen Shuya's expression changed, her eyes looking at Song Qiao were filled with hatred, "You will regret it!"
She turned and left.
The originally harmonious atmosphere was so disturbed that no one was embarrassed to talk anymore. They looked at each other, thinking about how to whitewash the peace.
Fortunately, at this time, the old lady finally came on the stage and spoke, "Everyone, I have no other intention of inviting you here today. One is to have a lively atmosphere at home, and the other is to inform everyone that if nothing happens to our family, Jing Ting,
We will get engaged at the end of the year, and when the time comes, I would like to ask you all to come and attend."
After she finished speaking, she accurately found Gu Jingting and Song Qiao in the crowd, smiled and waved to them, "Come here and say hello to everyone."
Song Qiao's cheeks were so hot that she didn't have the courage to go on stage.
She whispered to Gu Jingting, "Mr. Gu, at this time, I won't go. It's better for you to go. You can find a way to tell grandma."
Gu Jingting lowered his eyes, watching Song Qiao desperately shrinking behind him, and estimated that if he kept pressing closer and closer, she might really have to flee.
Profit.
He hummed in his heart, but did not force Song Qiao to go on stage. He packed his suit and walked over.
Mrs. Gu was anxious, "Why don't you come up and go down by yourself and bring Qiao Qiao up with you? I have to let them see my granddaughter-in-law."
Gu Jingting had no choice but to explain in a low voice, "She is shy, so don't force her."
"That's it..."
Mrs. Gu was full of regrets, but looking down at the audience, Song Qiao was indeed blushing fiercely. If she were forced to come over again, she might be scared to tears.
She thought to herself and decided that the future would be long.
The main purpose of this banquet was to find a fiancée for Gu Jingting. Now that he had brought someone back with him, the original plan was naturally cancelled.
Gu Jingting took the microphone and said quietly, "Hello everyone, if you need anything, just ask. The Gu family will do their best to entertain you."
As he said this, some people who had originally held out hope now understood that their plans to climb up to Gu Jingting and enter the Gu family today would be in vain.
Mrs. Gu didn't care.
Her wish was to see Gu Jingting get married as soon as possible. Now that she saw hope, there was no dissatisfaction left. She just hoped that her grandson would be more proud and marry his granddaughter-in-law back as soon as possible!
"Yes, yes, eat and drink well." She agreed.
At this time, a person suddenly squeezed out of the crowd and shouted to Mrs. Gu, "Old lady, I just heard that in the project in the south of the city, someone died because of Jing Ting's mismanagement. Yesterday, the family even made a fuss on the construction site.
.”
Mrs. Gu smiled slightly and looked back at Gu Jingting, "Is what he said true?"
Gu Jingting nodded, "Well, because the supervisors were enriching themselves, the project was of poor quality, and the workers were hit by falling bricks and stones during the construction process."
Mrs. Gu's face turned serious, "How did you solve this matter?"
"Yesterday I went to the scene to meet with the family members in person. I apologized and will arrange for compensation later. If they have any difficulties at home, the company will help solve them." Gu Jingting replied.
Such an arrangement can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous one.
After hearing this, Mrs. Gu remained silent for a long time before sighing, "No matter what happens, my life will never come back."
Gu Jingting lowered his head, waiting for her to give up.
The man who just came out to shout immediately struck while the iron was hot, "Old lady, I think Jing Ting must be busy with company affairs, so he can't take care of it. Don't blame him, we just need to be more careful later."
"Yes, after all, the Gu family has a huge business. It is understandable that Jing Ting can only support it by himself." Someone agreed.
Mrs. Gu's smile completely disappeared, and her originally gentle eyes became sharp.
She glanced at the people below with an expressionless face, and recognized that the people who had just spoken were all members of the Gu family. Over the years, they felt that she and Gu Jingting were the only ones in the main family, and they were all jumping around trying to take a bite of meat.
Now that I have finally caught the handle, I am like a wild wolf smelling fishy smell, showing my ferocious look.
Mrs. Gu sneered and asked calmly, "Then what do you think is better?"
The people below didn't speak immediately until an old man who was over seventy years old and leaning on a cane slowly walked out and said, "Since Jing Ting can't take care of you, let's find someone to help."
"It just so happens that the juniors on the side branch have also grown up. Let them join the company and learn from Jing Ting. They will be his right-hand men in the future. After all, they are on their own and can be used with peace of mind."
Peace of mind? I’m afraid I can’t sleep at night.
If those bastards were really allowed to enter the company, I'm afraid the Gu family would be emptied of money within half a year. Old Mrs. Gu looked at the people below and cursed inwardly.
If he hadn't been of higher seniority, she would have called her uncle when she saw him, and the old lady would have called for them to be kicked out by now.
Mrs. Gu had no expression on her face and said quietly, "Jing Ting, what do you think?"
Gu Jingting seemed to have expected this scene. He handed the microphone to his servant and adjusted his sleeves slowly, "We can discuss the matter of joining the company later."
"No need, just..."
"Before that, I have something I would like to ask someone from the side branch first." Gu Jingting seemed to have not heard him open his mouth and raised his hand to wave.
Xiang Chen quickly walked in from outside with his bodyguards.
They walked up to Uncle Gu and threw a man at his feet like a sack. To ensure that he could see clearly, they turned the man over face up.
This sight almost scared Uncle Gu to the point of fainting.
The person lying in front of him was not even human at all. His whole head was swollen from being beaten, and his face was covered in blood. It was almost impossible to tell what he looked like.
Maybe the collision just now was too painful, and the unconscious person was awakened by the pain again. He saw Uncle Gu in a daze, his eyes burst with hope, and he opened his mouth and shouted vaguely, "Help...save me..."
As he spoke, the teeth in his mouth could not be seen.
Uncle Gu thought of something and felt his whole body go cold. He looked at Gu Jingting tremblingly, opened and closed his mouth several times before he managed to calm down, "What do you mean?"
Gu Jingting smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes.
He said, "Uncle Er Tang, don't you know this person? I thought you two were old acquaintances. After all, when I caught him, he kept shouting that you would look good on me."
How dare you shout like that?
Idiot! Idiot!
Uncle Gu was so furious that he grabbed the crutch in his hand and wished he could just knock it down on the man and kill him. Then the little beast would have nothing to threaten him with.
Following his thoughts, he suddenly raised his crutch at an extremely fast speed and swung it towards the man's head.
