Chapter 479: His Request
It's true that she is a little clever, but an old fox like Gu Qingzhe is as deep as a deep trench in the Indian Ocean, how can a little girl like her be a little clever and be able to deal with it?
Don't be smart when you are smart, but be mistaken by cleverness, and let yourself lose face in front of the old man.
She knew very well that Gu Qingzhe was not very satisfied with her, and she was very resistant to her being with Gu Jingxi before.
"Well, you don't pretend to be smart, you don't be delicate, but people like it."
His words didn't make Xia Xiaobai feel at ease, she responded with a smile on her face, but in fact, she was already nervous in her heart, like holding a deer in her arms, pounding and jumping.
"But that's not enough!"
See, the best is yet to come, but what does he mean by that?
Xia Xiaobai didn't ask, just looked at Gu Qingzhe with some puzzled eyes.
"Because as Gu Jingxi's woman, just like this, it's not enough. To be honest, I am not very satisfied with your family background, your cultural literacy, and your qiΔ. β
In other words, she is not worthy of his eldest grandson Gu Jingxi.
But he was not wrong, there are indeed few women who can match a man like that, but she has promised Gu Jingxi that no matter what happens in the future, she will not let go lightly, but hold those hands tightly and never give up.
"All I can say is that I will try my best in the future to make you as happy as possible."
He is Gu Jingxi's only elder in this world, and he made Gu Jingxi, who lost his parents since childhood, grow up healthy and smooth, during which he poured infinite love into it, and he is an indispensable and important person in Gu Jingxi's life, and he is also a person that Gu Jingxi loves, cherishes, and respects very much, if she wants to go with Gu Jingxi, she must be recognized by this person.
She knew that she couldn't be perfect, but she would do her best for Gu Jingxi and this family.
She didn't say anything, and she didn't say some nice things in order to get his approval.
However, Xia Xiaobai's sincere tone and sincere eyes at the moment did not impress Gu Qingzhe.
"There is no basis for empty words, it is useless to just talk and not practice!"
Gu Qingzhe simply dropped a sentence, and Xia Xiaobai opened his mouth.
"What do you mean ......"
Gu Qingzhe did not explain directly, but changed the topic.
"Do you remember what I told you at the beginning, to be honest, if you weren't with Jing Xi, I think you are a very good girl, although I don't like you much, but at least I won't hate you. However, if you are going to be with Jingxi, then my opinion of you will change dramatically. β
"I know, you must think that I, like those women, are all going for Gu Jingxi's money, even if I deny it now, you may not believe me."
"Of course! Another important reason is that you have grown up in different modes since childhood, the world you have been exposed to differently, your outlook on life and values are also different, and of course, there is another very important reason......"
Xia Xiaobai's heart tightened, and she obviously felt that Gu Qingzhe's next words were the most important.
"Your father once made me lose my son in middle age, let Jing Xi lose his parents when he was young, and made me almost bankrupt and ruined, this kind of hatred can not be resolved overnight!"
Sure enough, as soon as Gu Qingzhe's words came out, Xia Xiaobai's heart seemed to be torn apart, his body seemed to fall into an ice cellar, and his whole body was wrapped in a biting chill.
Family grievances really can't be resolved lightly, and it is normal for Gu Qingzhe to have hatred for her in his heart, after all, his son is indeed her father who framed her to death.
She was very sorry, although she didn't know these things, and it had nothing to do with her, but she had the same blood in her body as her father, and there was a saying that the father paid the debt, so even if she was left alone to bear all these responsibilities today, she would never complain.
She doesn't know what to say now, as if everything she says is superfluous, and she is justifying, and it is useless to say more, so it is better not to say it.
On Gu Qingzhe's old face, there was a hint of anger and grief that could not be concealed, probably thinking of Gu Jingxi and his father.
is a cold, strong, and stubborn person, in fact, it is just a kind of appearance of his disguise in front of people, and inside, he may not be so soft and fragile.
After a moment of silence, Gu Qingzhe let out a long sigh.
"If this were normal, I wouldn't have been able to let Jing Xi bring you like this into the door of my Gu family, and I would never agree, Jing Xi is with you, even if it costs my life, I won't give up!"
These words sounded quite hurtful, but Gu Qingzhe's tone was not half excited, on the contrary, it was like narrating an innocuous matter.
This proves that he is calm now and is not angry.
Sure enough, as she expected, Gu Qingzhe paused, and then spoke, his tone was much softer than before, with a hint of helplessness.
"But since I've been through a lot of things lately, I've thought a lot more clearly, and I've taken a lot of pessimism. As the so-called retribution is over, there are some things that it is time to let go. β
When Xia Xiaobai heard this, he finally let go of a lot of his heart.
But just as she was about to put it down, Gu Qingzhe changed her words again, and let her raise her heart to her throat again, this old man is really uncomfortable.
"I can ignore those grievances and grievances, but there are some things that must be made clear."
"Speak!"
"I also said before that it is not so easy for a man like Jingxi to find a woman who matches him."
"You're right, he's too good, but I'll do my best to do my best."
"Okay, since you said so, I'm not so stubborn, I'll give you a chance to show you well."
"Hmm."
"In order to separate you and Jingxi before, I asked you to go to the office, do you remember?"
"Of course I do."
At that time, Gu Qingzhe was strongly opposed to her, and his tone was naturally very unfriendly, and he even wanted to use money to send her, but at that time, Xia Xiaobai did not leave Gu Jingxi because of this.
Regarding Gu Qingzhe's use of money to send her, to be honest, she was very annoyed and very disdainful.
But what does it mean to bring it up now?
"If you took my money at that time and agreed to my request, I think I would be grateful to you, and I would have spurned you from the bottom of my heart, thinking that you were nothing more than you, and that you were not worthy of my grandson's love for you."
His words are somewhat contradictory, but the meaning is clear.
"Now I won't do that again, you didn't want my money before, so now you won't want it, and I also know that if I forcibly break you up, it will only make Jingxi feel uncomfortable in the middle, I am such a grandson, I don't want him to be sad, and I don't want him to break with me because of this."
This old man is in his eighties, but his mind is still quite sober and his mind is quite flexible.
Gu Qingzhe has laid so much foreshadowing in front of him, Xia Xiaobai will not think that he is just gossiping, he must have said it with a purpose.
"Now I'll give you a chance to prove yourself, it's up to you to accept it!"
Before, Xia Xiaobai swore that she would work hard and try her best to be a woman who matched Gu Jingxi, but now that the opportunity has come, she must fight for it.
"Okay, I accept!"
"You don't even ask, what did I ask you to do, and you accepted it so lightly?"
Gu Qingzhe asked Xia Xiaobai with a little smile.
"I think you also know how much Jingxi loves me, and how much you love him, you will not hurt the woman he loves deeply, so I accept it."
Gu Qingzhe's expression changed slightly, and he stared at Xia Xiaobai for a while, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.
The difficult thing is that from his eyes, I saw a little appreciation.
Sure enough, his grandson didn't look at the wrong person, this woman is indeed different from other women, and she is not as powerful and tacky as those women, this woman looks very weak, but her heart is very strong and assertive, if Gu Jingxi marries her in the future and makes her the hostess of the King Group, maybe, she can really help Gu Jingxi to reach a higher level in her family and career.
"Excellent! Assertive, decisive, and confident, I like this kind of girl. The main thing is that you don't have so many fancy intestines, you are direct enough, and to be honest, I like people who are more direct, and on the contrary, those who think they are smart and scheming, I not only don't like them, but I hate them very much. β
With that, he stood up.
Xia Xiaobai also quickly stood up, Gu Qingzhe turned around and walked towards the desk, Xia Xiaobai watched him walk to the desk, and couldn't guess what the old man was going to do.
After a while, Gu Qingzhe turned around, but there was an extra bag in his hand.
He walked over and handed the bag to Xia Xiaobai: "This is the plan for the cooperation of the three companies before, and the company has also set up a special department for the design and development of new products, and you were also a member of the design department at that time, right?" β
Xia Xiaobai took it and nodded puzzledly: "Well, at that time, as an intern, I was studying with my seniors. β
"Okay, since you have also participated in the past, then naturally you will not be unfamiliar, this project should be handed over to you as the person in charge, it should be no problem."
Xia Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, a little incredulous: "Wait...... Wait a minute, you mean, let me do it? β
"What? Don't want to, or don't feel like you're up to the task? Didn't you swear just now that you would try your best to be a woman worthy of Jingxi? If you can't even do this little thing, then you might as well take back what you just said! I also want to reconsider you, whether you can become the next generation of mistress of my Gu family! β
Gu Qingzhe turned his face faster than he turned a book, and he was smiling just now, but this time his face changed completely, and Yan SΓΉ was still a little angry, which was more scary.
"No, no, I didn't mean that, I meant to say, I haven't done it before after all, and I don't know if I can do it well......"
