Chapter 100: The Quarrel at Dinner
Gu Tingchen's father nodded: "Okay, then you ask Assistant Tingchen to send the documents." β
When Su Yuebai heard him say this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart. Then she added, "I can ask her to send the documents over now." β
"Yes." Gu Tingchen's mother said these two words with a lot of money.
She took out her mobile phone and quickly dialed Gu Tingchen's assistant.
"Mrs. Gu, is there anything wrong?" Gu Tingchen's assistant's voice came from the earpiece of the mobile phone.
Su Yuebai replied: "I want to ......"
She hadn't finished speaking, but Gu Tingchen's mother snatched her mobile phone.
"I'll tell her." After Gu Tingchen's mother coldly threw down this sentence, she said into the microphone of her mobile phone, "Are you Tingchen's assistant?" I am Tingchen's mother. Tingchen's father and I recently want to know about the operation of the Gu Group, please send any financial statements and other documents to our mailbox, okay? β
The assistant on the other end of the phone replied, "Okay, no problem." I'll send it now. β
Gu Tingchen's mother added: "Well, let's keep in touch at any time, Tingchen has been in a coma recently, and my father and I will temporarily take over the management of the Gu Group's business." β
After the assistant on the other end of the phone answered "yes", Gu Tingchen's mother hung up the phone.
"Don't feel like we're targeting you at every turn. We just want to know what is actually happening to the Gu Group. Gu Tingchen's mother said when she returned the phone to Su Yuebai.
Su Yuebai took the phone: "Actually, you don't have to doubt me like this. If Tingchen and I hadn't really loved each other, we wouldn't have come all this far. During the time he was in a coma, I don't know how much I wanted him to wake up earlier, and how could I take advantage of the fact that he was in a coma to seek Gu's property? β
Gu Tingchen's parents were silent again, obviously thinking about how to answer her question.
"We're not saying you have to be. We're just thinking about one possibility. Even if you don't have that mind, who knows if your parents have? Our Gu family has a big business, we always have to be careful, right? Gu Tingchen's mother said this, picked up the teacup on the coffee table, and took a few sips of tea.
Su Yuebai was just about to say something, but Gu Tingchen's father spoke: "We don't mean that your parents must be that mind. Your mother-in-law also said that this is just a possibility. β
Su Yuebai suddenly felt very tired. She didn't want to explain anything to the two of them. As long as she has a clear conscience.
At that moment, she stood up and said to Gu Tingchen's parents: "After you read the company documents, you will find that what I said is the truth. Come to my parents' house for dinner at seven o'clock tomorrow, okay? I'll go back first. β
Gu Tingchen's mother called the maid out and sent Su Yuebai to the door of the villa.
After Su Yuebai left the Gu family's villa, she went straight home.
After arriving home, she went to the bedroom to see Gu Tingchen for a while, and then went back to her bedroom and lay down.
I don't know if she was too tired, but she fell asleep not long after she lay down.
The next morning, she was woken up by the ringing of a mobile phone.
She opened her heavy eyelids, reached out sleepily, picked up her phone on the bedside table, and pressed the answer button.
Gu Tingchen's mother's voice came from the receiver of the mobile phone: "Yuebai, have you woken up?" Ah Fan and I read the documents of the Gu Group last night, and we have also learned about the specific situation. The truth is exactly what you say. At seven o'clock tonight, we will be at your parents' house on time. β
Su Yuebai stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyes, and then said, "Okay, I know." β
"Is it better to be seven or five or six? Isn't it better to be earlier in the past? Yuebai, I'm really sorry that we doubted you like this yesterday. The mother-in-law on the other end of the phone suddenly apologized to her.
Su Yuebai couldn't help but be a little surprised. However, she thought about it, and now that the Gu family is in this situation, they need to deal with the shareholders themselves. They are old and can't keep up with the energy to deal with things.
Thinking of this, a slightly mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then she replied, "It's just seven o'clock." Yesterday I told my parents. β
"Good. Then we'll settle it. See you tonight. After saying that, the person on the other end of the phone hung up.
Su Yuebai took the phone away from her ear and looked at the time displayed on the phone - it was only seven o'clock in the morning.
It's the weekend, and she doesn't have to go to work at the magazine. In fact, recently she wanted to quit her job at the magazine and go home to take care of Gu Tingchen. However, yesterday, Gu Tingchen's parents said that they would send Gu Tingchen to them, which made her dispel this idea.
She threw her phone back at the bedside table, fell out of bed and went back to sleep.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Su Yuebai arrived at her parents' house on time.
Following the maid to the dining room, Su Yuebai found that Gu Tingchen's parents were already sitting in the dining room. And his parents are also sitting quietly.
It's just that there is no eye contact between these four people, and they just suppress each other's dissatisfaction and don't have a seizure.
"Mom and Dad, parents-in-law, how long have you been here? Sorry, I didn't come sooner. Su Yuebai said as she walked over to her mother and sat down.
"We haven't been here for long, it's only seven o'clock, and you're on time." Gu Tingchen's mother raised her hand and looked at her watch, and then said.
Su Yuebai's mother began to ask the maid to bring the meal.
After the servant had brought all the dishes, he left the dining room.
"None of this dishes are to my and Afan's liking, what's going on?" Gu Tingchen's mother glanced at the dishes on the table and said in a cold voice.
Su Yuebai saw that her mother wanted to have a seizure, so she glanced at her, and then said to Gu Tingchen's mother: "Mother-in-law, what they cook are all dishes that I love to eat. It's rare for me to come back, so they'll let the maid cook the dishes, you won't mind, will you? After all, parents always favor their children, right? β
Gu Tingchen's father began to play a round at this time: "It's okay, it's okay, let's eat." Speaking of this, he glanced at his wife, "Don't be suspicious of being a guest at someone else's house, this is not in your own home." β
Gu Tingchen's mother pursed her lips and didn't say anything, just picked up her chopsticks and ate her meal.
What Su Yuebai said just now was actually just to ease the atmosphere. These dishes are not her favorite dishes. In fact, the family never knew what she liked to eat.
After Su Yuebai ate a few bites of food, she raised her head, looked at Gu Tingchen's mother and said, "Mother-in-law, let's talk about the press conference." β
As soon as she finished speaking, her mother next to her said, "Yes." Yesterday my daughter came over and said that there has been turmoil in the Gu Group recently. Let's hold a press conference and make it clear to people in the outside world that the Su family will always be responsible for the Gu family. It's not that we disagree, we just want to hear your opinions. β
Gu Tingchen's mother glanced at her husband and did not speak.
Gu Tingchen's father spoke: "I don't have any opinions. After all, our two families are in-laws, and they always fight back and forth like this, making outsiders look at it as a joke. We are of course happy to have you at a press conference. β
The boulder in Su Yuebai's heart fell to the ground, and she just wanted to speak, but she heard her father say: "It's just that you can't let us work for you in vain, right?" Before the press conference, you have to give us 10 percent of the shares of the Gu Group. β
Su Yuebai's heart jumped. These words undoubtedly put a nuclear bomb on the present calm situation.
Sure enough, Gu Tingchen's father sneered: "Father-in-law, your ability to rob while the fire is not small." Do you think that without the help of your Su clan, our Gu clan would have nothing to do? β
Su Yuebai's parents' faces also became ugly.
Gu Tingchen's father's voice continued to sound: "I'll tell you the truth, we came over for this dinner for the sake of Yuebai. To be exact, it is for the sake of Yuebai is Tingchen's wife. Because Tingchen likes Yuebai, we give her this respect. You have to understand that we are not here to beg your Su family! β
After saying that, he stood up and said to his wife: "Arlene, we won't eat this dinner, let's go to the hotel to eat seafood buffet." β
Su Yuebai hurriedly stood up: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, don't be like this, my dad didn't mean that, don't be angry first, okay?" β
"I don't have the right to distribute the shares of the Gu Group, and even if I do, I won't give them to you who take advantage of the fire. This favor, do you like to help or not, you don't help, we have other connections, how do you think the Gu Group came from? Before Tingchen was born, it was our Gu family who worked hard! β
Gu Tingchen's father was angry, and he sprayed at Su Yuebai's father again.
Su Yuebai's father stood up and opened his eyes angrily: "My father-in-law, I haven't finished my words yet, why are you so angry?" My proposal is that you give us 10 percent of Gu's shares, and we give you 10 percent of Su's shares. In this way, both of us will prosper and lose both. Do you think that our Su family just wants to take advantage of your Gu family? β
Su Yuebai's mother accosted at this time: "Yes, since this is the case, what else are you talking about?" Our Su family is not a small business, and it is not to the point of being so angry! β
"So what else is there to talk about? Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, there's no need to waste each other's time, let's go. When Gu Tingchen's mother said this, she grabbed her husband's arm and was about to walk to the door of the dining room.
Su Yuebai walked in front of the two of them: "Don't be rash, okay?" Gu's and Su's are both big enterprises, and if you work together, it will be harmless to each other. You're all people who have been in the mall for a long time, you can't not see this, right? β
Speaking of this, she looked at her parents: "As a junior, I ask you not to be so naΓ―ve when you speak, and talk about cooperation calmly, okay?" β
