"Even if you can afford to lose this face, Gu can't afford to lose this face, and I won't accept it."
His attitude was resolute and determined.
He'd already made her desperate and miserable once because of his problems, he couldn't afford to have it happen a second time.
He could never break her heart again, and he would never give her away again.
This was something that only he could decide, the others, no matter who it was, even if Elder Gu threatened him with his life, were not as important as Su Qinglan and his Xiao Ze in his current measure of value.
If being the heir had to be cold-blooded, then his cold-blooded attitude could only be placed here.
"Enough! Do you know what you stupid bastard is saying?!" Elder Gu picked up something in his hand and slammed it hard.
"The marriage with the Shi family is already a precedent broken now, but the power that the Shi family now holds in their hands is something you've been begging for! Let me tell you, even if you are capable, the day you want to equal the power in the hands of the Shi family is still a hundred years away!"
"Waste! Useless fools!"
Elder Gu cursed and coughed as he cursed, his lungs almost coughing out.
With such a big commotion, it was impossible that none of the people outside had heard it, but no one dared to come in, and no one wanted to come in.
What was going on in their heads, Gu Jinchi knew very well.
The current Master Gu or, for the vast majority of people is actually an obstacle.
It was because the old man was overbearing and dictatorial and prudent that many people could only eat their share of the money, but how could human ambition be satisfied with more than that?
Everyone was waiting for the day when Gu's dynasty would be changed, but the candidates were only him and Gu, and his and Gu's supporters in this matter were almost neck and neck above the numbers.
As long as the old man had left a will, they were saved.
"Enough cursing?" He looked on coldly, handing over a glass of water, "This matter is impossible, only she can be my wife."
"Asshole, do you have me in your sights or not?" Elder Gu's eyes reddened, and without knowing where the strength came from, he directly threw all the cups out, making a loud noise as they shattered on the ground.
Gu Zhanyan pushed the door to come and take a look, but was yelled out again by Elder Gu with a yell.
He looked at the man in front of him with a flat expression, "If you want to live a while longer, control your own emotions."
Perhaps it was overly mean and cold-blooded, but it was the best thing he could say for the current situation.
"That's enough! I see that you don't want me to live for long, you can't wait for me to die early so that you can marry that woman and enter the house, right?!" Elder Gu was impatient and looked at him and suddenly sneered, "I'm telling you, I've already made my will."
"As long as you marry Shirui, you'll be the head of the Gu family, but if you stay with that Su Qinglan woman, you won't get a single penny of the Gu family's money in your hands!"
At those words, Gu Jinchi's pupils shook.
"How can you be so childish about something like this?!"
He didn't understand why on earth he had to face such a scene, there was absolutely no way he would give up Su Qinglan to marry another woman, absolutely no way!
"Child's play?" Elder Gu sneered, "Do I look like I'm joking with you? Both you and Zhuyin have outstanding abilities, each with their own excellence, and I won't let you use the Gu family's resources and property to engage in meaningless fights."
"But after all, Zhiyan doesn't have a proper origin, making him the future head of the Gu family would be disgracing the Gu family. Only you, are the most suitable one."
"But don't you dare try to pin me down with this one thing, I've already thought about it now, unless you marry Shirui, I'll immediately announce that he's the man in charge of Gu's business right now if Honorable agrees to a marriage with Shirui!"
"Don't you go too far!" These words were almost yelled out by Gu Jinchi.
Even he froze, the hand at his side already numb and senseless from the tight clench.
"I'm excessive?" Elder Gu looked at him and gave a cold smile, then looked at the time on the watch next to him, "I'll give you five minutes, you'd better think about it carefully, as long as you guys get married, I'll immediately announce that you're the head of Gu's, and it's none of your business whether I'm an old man who's dead or alive at that time."
"But you shouldn't think of getting a divorce right after you marry Tokaree; I'll arrange all these things in my will."
The old man was shrewd and good at scheming, but that was a difficult thing to use if it was used in this way.
Gu Jinchi clenched his teeth and bit his muscles tightly, one was to make him give up his former life, and the other was to make him marry someone he didn't love, leaving a deeper wound in her and Xiao Ze's heart.
All choices that made his life worse than death, is that something a biological grandfather could do?
But ... he soon calmed down too, and five minutes later, wearily, walked out of the ward.
Gu Zhanyan and a few directors guarding the outside were whispering something, and he just gave a cold glance as he passed by, throwing down a sentence, "He told you to go in."
He didn't even want to address his grandfather anymore, he just wanted to find a peaceful place to go to sleep early and wanted to put all these things behind him.
Once noon is over.
When Su Qinglan woke up from the bed, Gu Jinchi had already fallen asleep on the sofa, the whole person was dressed in a suit, and even the buttons of his jacket had not been loosened.
The tie had also been crumpled under the body.
After thinking about it, she walked over and squatted down, helping Gu Jinchi loosen his buttons and undo his tie before covering him with a blanket.
Anni came in to see this scene.
He stood by the side and watched quietly, and after a moment of silence, he lent a step with her and said, "I'm not too sure what happened in the hospital today, but Mr. Gu was already in a bad state when he came out."
"Elder Gu's condition is not very good, for Gu's, it might be a knucklehead to change the dynasty soon, I'm afraid that Mr. Gu will not be able to stay up if he keeps going in a streak, can I ask you to keep an eye on him a little bit more?"
She still had some difficulty with this request.
Gu Jinchi does not look back home to sleep, but instead stays here unavoidably draws the distance too close, but really wants him to go back ... according to Anian s words, she is also worried.
After a worried glance at the man on the couch, she sighed, "Can you tell me more specifically about the situation? That way I can figure out what I can do."
After a pause, An Nian for is, "I'm not sure about the details, but the old man Gu's time must be not much more, now Gu's candidate only two, either Gu Zhuyan is Gu General, two people for the old man Gu hand heart hand back are meat, want to make a choice must be through something."
"Mr. Gu wants to take Gu's, not only for the sake of these things not to be taken and utilized by Gu Zhanyan, but also for the sake of ..." said An Nian, looking deeply at her, and then looking in the direction of where Xiao Ze's room was in the distance.
She understood very well what he was trying to say.
Gu Gu was always bad for her.
That day when Ren Lord told her about the complicated relationship between Sheng Feiyu and also Cenxu and Gu Zhuyan, she already had a bad feeling about it.
With three strong enemies joining forces together, and perhaps Cenxu holding her grandmother as a hostage in her hand, of these three, only Gu Zhuyan looked like the best to tackle.
Before that, Gu Jinchi would have to take down Gu, otherwise as long as Gu fell into the hands of Gu Jingyan, not to mention revenge, even living on would be a difficult thing, I'm afraid.
All their retreats will be cut off.
Although only Gu Jinchi was vying for the inheritance, it was a very important juncture for their small family.
Although she didn't want anything to happen with Gu Jinchi again, in front of such a big event, she couldn't afford to act like she was staying out of it anymore, especially now in this situation, they still had to join forces.
"I know." Having done her thinking, she was much more open.
They used to work together intimately and perfectly, so it wasn't as if just a year apart this time would dismantle the understanding they'd cultivated over five years.
Gu Jinchi was trying so hard to save everything to save them.
What reason did she have to stay out of this unspoken war?
She sat by the sofa that day, holding hot water and waiting for Gu Jinchi to wake up.
Perhaps because of the long term of keeping the nerves in a tense state, Gu Jinchi only rested for two hours before he climbed up from the sofa with red bloodshot eyes and looked at her tiredly, "Why didn't you go to rest?"
"You're just going to sleep for a little while? I've prepared medicine, why don't you take some and sleep a little longer?" She could guess now that in his current state it would be hard for him to go back to sleep if he didn't take the medicine.
But Gu Jinchi pinched and rubbed his brow to wake up and shook his head, "No, Gu still has important things waiting for me to deal with, it's better to wait and sleep together at night."
"Are you ... going to review home or come here tonight?" She hesitated, volunteering the question still making her a little uncomfortable.
Gu Jinchi, however, was a bit unable to believe his ears and looked at her in shock, "What did you just say?"
"I said ..." she was a bit helpless, don't open her head already don't want to say the words again, "Xiao Ze misses the time when we were together as a family, right? It's convenient if you stay with Xiao Ze during this time, and then after he starts school ..."
"Convenient." He agreed sharply.
It was as if the exhaustion had been cleared away for the most part, "I see what you mean, just shelter me for a little while and let me go back after a while, is that what you mean?"
"Uh-huh." She answered and saw Gu Jinchi's lips curl into a smile.
"Okay, then I'm going out first, I should be back in time for dinner, and if I can't make it, you two eat first without waiting for me."
With that, he had risen, buttoned up his buttons, and picked up his tie on one side, his whole being refreshed and restored to his fullest state of condition.
Just by washing his face and going out, he had become a different man from the tired one.
Looking at his determined back, somehow her eyes grew a little sore.
