Chapter Twenty-Seven: "If You Can't Catch Up, Don't Chase"
Leaving the mall, Gu Qingyan went straight back to the company, he had an important meeting to hold in the afternoon.
The finals will be held next month, in Shanghai, the organizers got in touch with Yunsheng in the morning, hoping that the finals can continue to be sponsored by Yunsheng Technology, and want to increase the scientific and technological elements of the competition venue, and plan to deliver the scientific and technological equipment of the entire venue to Yunsheng.
This opportunity is a good thing for Yunsheng from both a commercial and a private point of view, and if this participation is successful, then Yunsheng will further reach into the field of clothing.
Recently, Yunsheng's R&D team is designing a device that can get rid of customized clothing and can only be customized in stores.
After the meeting, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Qingyan went back to the office to deal with some trivial things, and was ready to go home for Yang Ronghui's birthday at seven o'clock.
"Brother Yan, you said that you made an assertion and gave the A-12 directly to Xiaoyue, what should I do if people don't accept it?"
The car was speeding on the viaduct, and the night in the northern city was already lit up with colorful lights.
Kong Mu sat in the co-pilot and said to Gu Qingyan, who was driving: "In case people don't accept it, aren't you a hot face and a cold ass?"
"She has no reason not to accept it, her studio now has a large number of orders, but the staff is insufficient, looking at the whole Beicheng and even in China, there is no more advanced and intelligent equipment than ours, others can't grab it, I don't believe she is not moved." ”
Kong Mu didn't think so: "I'm not sure if I'm moved, I'm afraid that people won't dare to move, maybe I heard that it was someone from our company, and I didn't even enter the door of the studio, and I refused to sign out directly at the front desk." ”
"Tsk. Gu Qingyan glared at him: "When can your mouth say something good, and if you talk nonsense, get out of the car!"
“...”
————————————————
Tonight's Gu Mansion is still the same as in the past, the lights are bright, the villas in the rich area are far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, except for the servants who are busy, there is no extravagant and wasteful scene like the birthdays of other wealthy wives in the northern city.
Mrs. Gu's fiftieth birthday, according to Gu Jian's meaning, it is a big deal, but Yang Ronghui said that she is the second entry, before this she lived in an ordinary family, she was not used to the days of those rich wives, and she liked it very much.
Gu Qingyan still remembers that when she first came to Gu's house, she was wearing a sports long coat, and she was leading a little girl who was only two or three years old in her left hand.
At that time, Yang Ronghui was only in her twenties, and her face was light, but there was no trace of fear and inferiority in those eyes.
She has a straight temperament, but she is not arrogant, her hands and feet are neat, her mind is bright, and she takes care of the entire Gu family in an orderly manner, and the Gu family's career has grown stronger and stronger because of her.
At that time, Gu Qingyan was only five years old, and it was reasonable that he was a little repulsed by this new family, but Yang Ronghui was not annoyed, and insisted on making breakfast and dinner for him every day, and the servants at home were very idle during that time.
Gu Qingyan thought at first that she wanted to create the image of a good wife and mother first, but she couldn't last long, so a year, two years or even five years passed like this.
Later, when he accepted her existence, and every time he came home from school, the first thing he said was "Where's Aunt Yang?" realized that these were not deliberately shown by her, but the simplicity in her bones.
As soon as Kong Lan entered the door, he gave Yang Ronghui a big hug: "Happy birthday, Auntie, I wish you good health, a long life, and a younger life, yo,"
Kong Mu lowered his head: "Hey, hey." ”
"you stinky boy, the dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth, it's not big or small! I'm still moved to think that you can finally be a man!" Yang Ronghui scolded with a smile.
Kong muttered and laughed, let go of Yang Ronghui, and just when Gu saw that he was going downstairs, he called "Uncle Gu"
Gu saw a "hmm", and turned the iron and stone walnut in his hand, his expression was more iron than the walnut in his hand, followed by Gu Jin.
"Brother Kong. ”
Gu Jin had the posture of a small jade lady, and she looked a little more willful than before.
Kong Mu had always had no good impression of Gu Qingyan's younger sister, and nodded at her: "Hello." ”
And then there was no follow-up.
After eating and cutting the cake, everyone sang a birthday song to Yang Ronghui together, and it was time to make a wish.
Yang Ronghui folded her hands and said: "I am over half a hundred years old, I have a family and children, and I don't have anything I want, I just hope that my family is safe and sound, and we Qingyan can catch up with the girl I like as soon as possible." ”
Don't seek glory and wealth, don't ask for children and grandchildren, just ask for family peace and security, and the hearts of obsessed people belong to them, which is a complete thing for Yang Ronghui.
Gu Jin's face was stunned: "Brother, do you have someone you like again?"
Gu Jian also looked completely blind: "Do you have a girl you like?"
"It's been there for a long time, and you're the only one in the family who doesn't know that your son fell in love for two years when he was in college. Yang Ronghui said in disgust.
"Who is it, brother, why don't you tell us?" Gu Jin said dissatisfiedly: "It won't be another ill-intentioned person, brother, let me tell you, your vision has not been very good, the one before-"
"What happened to that one before?"
Gu Qingyan said impatiently: "There is only one person I like from beginning to end, do you understand?"
"Ah?!It's her again! Isn't she going abroad, what are you doing when you come back?"
"Is this your part in talking?!" Yang Ronghui angrily reprimanded Gu Jin: "Have you heard a word, what kind of person sees in the eyes of what kind of person is what kind of person, you don't know anything and just evaluate and speculate about other people's girls, why don't you reflect on what good things you have done?"
"Alas, alas, okay," Seeing that the mother and daughter were about to quarrel again, Kong Mu stopped in time: "Aunt Yang, don't be angry, Gu Jin shouldn't know the inside story yet, celebrate your birthday first, celebrate your birthday first." ”
Yang Ronghui glared at Gu Jin angrily.
She still can't understand why the two children who were also brought up by herself are so different in appearance, and which step she did wrong to teach her daughter to be so vain and arrogant.
"Stop arguing. Gu Jian's head was in a mess now: "I can't understand what you're saying!"
“...”
"Let's stop,"
Gu Qingyan was upset and wanted to get angry, but thinking that the occasion was not right, he pulled Gu Jin aside in a temper and said: "I will watch and deal with my own affairs, Gu Jin, you put yourself in your own position, I think you should not forget what I told you before, if you dare to get involved in my affairs again, I have a way not to let you take the surname Gu." ”
After speaking, there was silence in the huge living room.
Gu Jin's face turned pale, and sweat broke out between his fingers.
After Gu Qingyan finished speaking, he walked back to the cake like no one, cut off a piece of cake and handed it to Yang Ronghui, a little tired, and a little hanging: "I did something wrong today, I am willing to accept the punishment, today you are the biggest, and the first bite of cake will be given to you." ”
"Happy birthday, Mom. ”
If Gu Qingyan's gratitude to Yang Ronghui earlier was that she gave her the family affection that he no longer wanted when he was young more than 20 years ago, then now he is willing to give her back what he can give Gu Jin that he has not given.
This was Yang Ronghui's birthday wish on her fortieth birthday, and Gu Qingyan was not at home when he was out to participate in the winter camp that birthday, but later the maid at home told him.
Everyone noticed that Gu Qingyan came back empty-handed today, and it wasn't until this moment that everyone understood that Gu Qingyan didn't prepare a birthday gift, but his gift was more precious and rare.
Yang Ronghui was stunned for a moment, tears fell uncontrollably, and deliberately complained: "Dead boy, if you can have such a brain for other girls, you won't be so miserable now." ”
Gu Qingyan raised his eyebrows, thinking to himself that this is not it, blaming him for developing his EQ too late and being occupied by IQ.
"Ouch, what is this for? Kong Mu laughed and said, "Have a good birthday for Aunt Yang, what's the matter with you giving such a tearjerker?"
"Okay, don't cry," Gu Jian once again felt abandoned by this family: "What are you talking about, Gu Qingyan, when did you have a favorite girl, why don't I know anything?!"
"Alas, this is a long story, Uncle Gu, it's not a secret, according to the normal development of things, it shouldn't be that your son is still alone now, the story in the middle is not long or short, anyway, it means that there is something wrong with our brother Yan on the way to learn the scriptures, otherwise you may be able to hug your grandson now, it's a pity." ”
Kong Mo pretended to be regretful and shook his head: "Your grandson has been lost by your precious son, and you have to wait for another two years." ”
“!!!”
Gu Jian's eyes widened in disbelief, the hand pinching the walnut trembled, and a raging fire had already ignited in his eyes, as if it was about to erupt in the next second.
"Stinky boy! Okay, if you don't learn, you will give me some mess! You come over to me, if I don't kill you today, I won't be surnamed Gu!"
As he spoke, he threw out the ironstone walnut in his hand, Gu Qingyan was caught off guard and was smashed into his head.
"Crazy, crazy!"
Yang Ronghui was shocked: "Gu saw that your brain pumped you! What do you smash on people's heads!"
"I'll go!!What are you doing!Brother Yan, are you okay?Get up and let me see!"
The scene of the family birthday banquet, which was harmonious a second ago, changed for some reason at this moment, Gu Qingyan bent down to cover his smashed forehead, Gu saw an angry look and yelled, Kong muttered Yang Ronghui was busy at both ends, and the living room was in chaos.
"Shut up!"
Yang Ronghui roared angrily and pointed at Gu Jian: "You, shut your mouth for me!
“...”
Gu Jianqi's chest was shaking, and Gu Jin was on the side to help him calm his qi.
"No, what's going on, Uncle Gu, your temperament is too big, Brother Yan was dumped badly enough, and now the girl finally came back and didn't care about him, how can you still smash people, he doesn't want to do this!"
Yang Ronghui: "You haven't asked your son since you were a child, but now it's just that you've been dumped and you treat him like this, are you such a father?"
"Dad, don't beat my brother! Even if something happens, that woman will cause it, and it can't have anything to do with my brother!"
Gu Jian: "Don't talk to me about this, if you don't have it, he made people's stomachs bigger and let the child go, who will be dumped if he doesn't get dumped?"
“....”
Wait, who made whom's belly bigger?
"Stop, stop," Yang Ronghui was confused: "Why didn't I understand what you said, who made people's stomachs bigger?" Gu Qingyan?"
Kong Mu also looked confused, and handed Gu Qingyan a look of "Brother, you have done this kind of bastard thing".
Gu Qingyan covered the bag on his forehead with his hand, and gritted his teeth with a cauldron on his head: "When did I say this?"
He had that in mind, but the question was whether he dared? Who gave him a chance?
"If I did, if she didn't give birth to me, I would have to give birth to her. ”
“...”
The scene fell silent for a moment, no one spoke again, and the servants were far away from the battlefield long before the battle began.
For a minute, everyone was lost in thought.
Kong Mo found the root cause after realizing it: "Uncle Gu, did you misunderstand what I said, what I said was that if Brother Yan and Xiaoyue didn't break up, they would have to complete a set of marriage proposals and certificates, I didn't mean that..."
“.....”
"Come on,"
Yang Ronghui was dizzy, sat down on the sofa, sighed, and pointed at Gu Jin: "You, let me go back to the house and stay, don't come down if it's okay." ”
"Mom!"
Yang Ronghui threw an eye knife over, and Gu Jin's back broke out in a cold sweat.
Gu Jin was still afraid of Yang Ronghui, the last time Yang Ronghui glared at her like this was when she played with Fang Yu's feelings, and she couldn't avoid being beaten, causing her to still have a shadow in her heart, and she reluctantly went upstairs.
Gu saw that this would be considered a surprise, and realized that he would be wrong, and felt that he was not to blame him.
Who told them not to say anything? The stinky boy can't go home twice a month, and every time he has zero communication with himself, it's clear that he is his son!
Yang Ronghui: "Qingyan, how is your head? Do you want to go to the hospital to make a film?"
Kong Mo asked Aunt Zhang to bring an ice pack and put it on Gu Qingyan's forehead, which would have subsided the swelling.
Gu Qingyan was extremely tired, and he really didn't want to stay in this place anymore: "It's nothing, you guys rest first, I'll leave first, happy birthday, Mom." ”
After speaking, he prepared to go out, without looking at Gu Jian.
"Come back!"
Gu Jian stopped Gu Qingyan: "Where are you going?"
"Where else can I go," Gu Qingyan pointed to the place where his forehead had just been smashed: "I'm made of meat, you're made of iron, have you ever seen an egg that is harder than a watermelon?"
“...”
Gu Jian coughed embarrassedly: "I didn't use my strength, who let you be dumb every day, and don't tell me anything when you go home, I'm your son, I don't even know that your kid has a partner, and I don't know how to talk well, I come up to the grandson or something, I'm not in a hurry and didn't react for a while." ”
Kong murmured: "Uncle Gu, it's still my fault when I say it, I shouldn't be joking with you, I'm here to apologize to you, I'm sorry." ”
"Don't say it," Yang Ronghui's headache was about to crack: "Let you toss like this on the first day of the second half of my life, I think I will not have a good time in the second half of my life." ”
"Don't talk nonsense," Gu Qingyan frowned.
Gu Jian sat on the sofa and sighed: "Listen to what you mean, you kid got a partner when he was in school, and he was dumped in the end?
"It can be understood in this way," Gu Qingyan confessed.
Gu Jian nodded: "Then why didn't you tell me?
"I don't tell you because I'm afraid you're going to cause trouble for me, don't ask why I broke it up, I want to know that I won't be annoyed like this now, no matter what, I'm sorry for her, and I'm still chasing. ”
"What can I do to make a mess for you, I'm not a feudal idea!"
Gu Qingyan: "..."
This is also true, he forgot that his biological mother and Yang Ronghui were not famous young ladies before entering the Gu family.
According to what he said, Gu Qingyan felt that his old man didn't seem to be so unkind, and he wasn't as difficult to communicate as he had in his impression.
He prepared a wording, and was about to say that you don't care about it first, I'll chase after it first, and when I catch up, I'll bring someone to see you, but in the next second, Gu Jian said-
"If you can't catch up, don't chase it, don't believe in the words of the broken mirror reunion, your sister is right, don't put the Gu family with such good conditions, she may still have some thoughts, although I don't want to pay attention to any feudal thoughts, but in today's society, it is still very important to be a good person, and it will also be of great help to your career, don't tell me where she is different, what good person can you fancy the person you like?"
