Chapter 205 The most suitable candidate for Mrs. Gu
"Gu...Grandma Gu." Ling Yan was speechless.
"Get in the car." The old lady asked with a serious expression.
How dare Ling Yan refuse, she bent down and sat in.
"Don't think I don't know who you've been with these days, Ling Yan, I didn't expect you to be a person who doesn't keep your word." The old lady scolded her harshly.
"I'm sorry, Grandma Gu, I deceived you..." Ling Yan was shaking with shame and self-blame.
"Huh, do you know how I always punish people who don't keep their word?" Old Mrs. Gu threatened her.
Ling Yan's pretty face turned pale and she was so nervous that she couldn't speak.
"Ling Yan, if you really like my grandson, you should think about him. The old man and I have only a few years left to live. I want to find him a well-matched girl to marry and help him in his career in the future.
, is it wrong? Why do you always have to pester him?" Mrs. Gu was also very angry, feeling that Ling Yan was too greedy.
Ling Yan's face was as pale as paper, and she had nothing to say. She knew that she was not worthy, but she couldn't figure it out. She deserved it.
"The Gu family has made countless enemies. Don't look at the Gu family's superficial glory, but in fact, it is walking on thin ice. Xichen's parents died tragically. He has been tracking down the murderer and offended many international organizations. The dangers he will face in the future are beyond your control.
Just imagine." Mrs. Gu was really worried about her grandson's situation, so she planned his future for him.
Ling Yan had taken risks with Gu Xichen, and she had also experienced those real guns and live ammunition. She knew that Grandma Gu did not lie to her, so she lowered her head.
"I'm going to lock you up now and prevent you from meeting him. Do you want to escape?" Mrs. Gu asked her coldly.
After Ling Yan was silent for a few seconds, she shook her head: "I won't run away."
"Okay, if my grandson gets engaged to a girl from the Chu family, I will let you go free." The old lady has already introduced a well-matched young lady to Gu Xichen.
Ling Yan's heart ached violently. She couldn't imagine the scene of him being with another woman, but she had to accept it.
"Okay." Ling Yan was unable to resist and let it go.
Mrs. Gu was quite satisfied with her attitude: "I know you are a good girl. Don't worry, as long as you don't ruin my grandson's marriage, I will not hold you accountable."
"Thank you, Grandma Gu." Ling Yan's heart was in a mess, and she looked out the window sadly.
The cell phone rang suddenly, and the old lady stared at it. Ling Yan hung up without answering, and the next second, she turned off the phone.
The old lady nodded with satisfaction: "I have my own explanation for my grandson."
Ling Yan sighed, is this the result of greed?
Gu Xichen waited until after ten o'clock in the evening and did not see Ling Yan. He was about to take his coat and go out.
But standing outside the door was the old housekeeper of the Gu family.
"Young Master, the old lady ordered me to come here and tell you that if you still want Miss Ling to be safe and sound, you can meet Miss Chu at noon tomorrow. The address is here."
Gu Xichen's handsome face was ashen and he tensed up: "Does Grandma know?"
"The old lady is very concerned about every move of the eldest young master..."
Gu Xichen took the address, turned back to the hotel, and slammed the door hard.
Haitang and Yuan Feng watched from a short distance away and couldn't help but feel sorry for the boss.
It is really painful to not be able to make the decision in your own marriage.
Gu Xichen held the piece of paper tightly, his thoughts in confusion. Do he really have to obey his grandma's arrangements?
If he really meets the young lady of the Chu family, what will Ling Yan do? Will she be sad?
Gu Xichen had never lost his mind like this at this moment.
The next day, Ling Yan received a call from the director asking her to go over for filming. Ling Yan was grounded and could not go there. Moreover, she felt that her job was going to be bad, so she took the initiative to resign from the director and asked him to
Change an actress as soon as possible. The director had no hope for her, so after discussion, they found someone to replace her.
The old lady locked Ling Yan in a villa, where she also lived. In the early morning, the old lady came to her room.
Ling Yan opened the door. She had not slept all night and her face looked haggard.
"My grandson promised to see Miss Chu at noon."
Ling Yan was shocked again. She bit her lower lip and pretended to be calm. "If their meeting turns out to be successful, I will send you to study abroad, and your future life will not be too bad."
Ling Yan knew that the old lady had no ill intentions, but that she had been doing wrong things that troubled her.
"Thank you, Grandma Gu, I will follow your arrangement." Ling Yan was like a puppet, losing herself.
The old lady nodded and said nothing more. She just asked someone to bring breakfast in: "Eat as much as you can, don't torture yourself."
"Okay." Ling Yan responded and closed the door.
The sun was shining brightly outside the window, but Lingyan's heart was extremely messy. She could no longer be happy. She curled up on the sofa, hoping that this day would pass quickly.
At noon, in a high-end restaurant, a tall figure appeared. A black suit wrapped around the man's slim body. His temperament was cool and noble.
As agreed, Gu Xichen came to the door of the restaurant's private room.
A pretty girl stood up from the table and chair.
"Brother Gu..." Chu Ling greeted with a smile.
Gu Xichen walked in expressionlessly and sat opposite her.
"You were forced to come here by your family, right?" Gu Xichen said coldly.
"It's not..." Chu Ling said as she took the teapot and poured him a cup of tea: "I have admired Brother Gu's talent since I was a child."
Gu Xichen narrowed his eyes and stared at her with cold eyes: "Why didn't I see it?"
"That's because Brother Gu has never looked at me directly." Chu Ling said with an aggrieved face: "I often find opportunities to come to Gu's house for dinner, but Brother Gu is only busy with business and doesn't pay attention to my admiring eyes."
"So, are you willing to marry me?" Gu Xichen frowned. If Chu Ling was interested, this matter would be even more difficult to handle.
"Yes." Chu Ling nodded seriously: "I am very willing to marry you and be your wife. Whether it is family affairs or official affairs, I will do my best to cooperate and support you, and I will definitely become your good wife..."
"I don't love you." Gu Xichen endured it again and again, but he still couldn't hold it back and let out a loud blow.
A flash of shock flashed across Chu Ling's face, and then she laughed self-deprecatingly: "Love is love, marriage is marriage, they are two different things. As long as we get married, we can always find a harmonious rhythm in marriage. Don't you now
Love, because you don’t understand me, if you understand me..."
"I have someone I like. I'm sorry, I can't marry you." Gu Xichen didn't want her to have vague hopes, so he could only tell the truth.
Chu Ling's face turned pale little by little. She held the cup and spoke for a long time: "Brother Gu underestimated me. As the daughter of the Chu family, I have also seen a lot of people in the world. Marriage from a wealthy family, originally
You're not innocent. In fact, if Brother Gu has someone he likes, I won't mind. I will turn a blind eye and properly handle the relationship between you and her. I don't know who the other person is? I really
I really want to get to know her."
Gu Xichen narrowed his cold eyes, Chu Ling's words contained deep meaning.
"Do you want to get to know her, or do you want to know her identity and pressure her to leave me?"
Chu Ling's expression froze. Unexpectedly, her thoughts were revealed by Gu Xichen.
"I won't threaten anyone." Chu Ling wanted to continue to maintain her grace.
"Sorry, I don't want to hurt her, so we won't get married..."
"Brother Gu, if you don't marry me, Grandma Gu will be very sad. Do you really not care about her feelings?" Chu Ling also quickly caught Gu Xichen's weakness.
Gu Xichen's handsome face sank, and the air pressure around his body became cold.
"I will explain it to my grandma."
"If Grandma Gu is really willing to listen to your explanation, she won't ask me to come over to meet you. Brother Gu, you have to believe that I am the most suitable person to be your wife." Chu Ling is very confident.
She has business skills and is also very beautiful. She is most suitable to be the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family.
Gu Xichen's handsome face was stiff and he had no words to reply.
Seeing that he was silent, Chu Ling knew that she had reached the point.
"Brother Gu, I don't mean to force you. I just want to help you solve your problems. Grandma Gu is an elder I respect. After marriage, I will be filial to her and take care of your housework so that you have no worries...
"
"I think you may have misunderstood. I don't want to get married." The more Gu Xichen listened, the more irritated he became. He didn't want to worry Chu Ling about finding a husband, and he couldn't get married hastily. He couldn't imagine that the person beside him in the future would not be Ling Yan, let alone Ling Yan.
It is unacceptable that she will marry someone else one day.
Since it was not the result he wanted, Gu Xichen could only refuse rationally.
"Brother Gu..." Seeing him getting up to leave, Chu Ling stood up anxiously: "You need to think about it calmly. I'll wait for your reply."
"I've thought it over carefully, Chu Ling, you are excellent, but you are not suitable for me." After Gu Xichen finished speaking, he left without looking back.
Chu Ling's face turned ugly, she clenched her fists and took out her mobile phone.
"Grandma Gu, I'm going to your place for dinner tonight. I want to talk to Miss Ling."
The night was dark, a heavy rain was coming, and the wind was whistling outside the window.
Ling Yan stayed up until dark. In the past few hours, she didn't know how she got here. She was groggy and her mind was in a mess.
Has Gu Xichen met that Miss Chu?
How was their chat?
Did he agree?
Ling Yan wanted to know the answer, but she was afraid to know.
The door of the room was pushed open. She thought it was Grandma Gu who had asked people to bring food in again. She didn't raise her head and only said a few words softly: "I have no appetite, don't bring any more food in."
"Do you want to threaten Grandma Gu with a hunger strike?" A cold female voice sounded, breaking the peace of the room.
