Chapter 83: The Gu Family
The Gu family's home base camp is located in West Vancouver, a well-known and wealthy area in Canada, which is backed by mountains and facing the sea, with suitable temperatures all year round, elegant environment and lush trees. The residents are all celebrities, with per capita assets of more than 10 million, and luxury cars and yachts everywhere.
Gu Mingyuan parked the private jet in the parking lot next to the villa, and Lu Yan got out of the car to see that more than 100 private jets were parked here in an orderly manner. There are as many as 5 aircraft with Gu character logo on the fuselage.
When a handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes saw Gu Mingyuan, he immediately hugged him warmly, but when he opened his mouth, there was a smell of Northeast ballast, "Brother, why did you come, I have been waiting for you for a long time." β
Lu Yan's eyes widened in surprise.
Gu Mingyuan explained with a smile: "This is my cousin Anthony, who used to do business in the Northeast and learned the accent over there. β
Anthony greeted Lu Yan with his eyebrows, "Hello, cousin-in-law, my Chinese is quite authentic." β
"Authentic, very authentic." Lu Yan smiled. I thought that the Gu family would be very cold, but I didn't expect to see my cousin so down-to-earth for the first time.
Anthony opened the door of the four-seater sports car, and the gentleman politely invited Lu Yan to sit in the back seat, and was ready to help her fasten her seat belt.
Gu Mingyuan secretly saw his eyes shining, and pushed him away, preventing him from being courteous.
Anthony sighed twice and said with a smile: "Cousin is here for real this time, I have never seen you protect calves like this before." β
"Shut up and drive your car seriously." Gu Mingyuan glanced at him.
"Yes, for your brother's sake, I don't care about you. If someone else called me like this, I would have greeted me with a fist. Anthony chattered.
Lu Yan looked at the scenery along the way, and listened to the two brothers arguing, and she didn't feel embarrassed at all.
When she arrived at the Gu family's villa, Lu Yan noticed the difference between domestic and foreign. thought that the old mansion of the Gu family in Wenjiang was already luxurious and high-end, but the villa in front of her, which was comparable to a small castle, opened Lu Yan's eyes.
The appearance is the unified eighteenth-century castle style of the community, the interior decoration is magnificent, there are dozens of bedrooms, world famous paintings as decorations, there is a large garden in front, a large swimming pool in the back, and a private courtyard.
Anthony walked in front to lead the way, Gu Mingyuan took Lu Yan's hand and secretly reassured her not to be nervous.
On the eaves of the corridor on the third floor, a fashionable and noble woman stood expressionlessly. The maid next to her whispered, "The second young master is back, and he also brought a lady, saying that it was his fiancΓ©e." β
The lady replied lightly, "I saw it." β
"Ma'am, are our plans still going on as usual?"
"Of course."
"But I'm afraid the second young master ......"
"No, how capable can a little mainland girl be? And let them be dashing for two days. β
After the lady finished speaking, she walked away with the maid in her black high heels.
The butler in the tuxedo greeted Gu Mingyuan and Lu Yan with a smile on his face, and led them to the large room on the third floor to the south.
"The second young master and Miss Yan will rest for a while, and the master and wife will not come back until later." The butler said gently.
Gu Mingyuan nodded and motioned for him to retreat.
Lu Yan let out a heavy breath and collapsed on the big bed. Gu Mingyuan let go of his bow tie and asked her with a smile, "Are you tired?" β
"It's fine. I just think it's a little weird. β
"What's the blame?" Gu Mingyuan pulled her into his arms and made her lie more comfortable.
"In China, parents must stay when they know that their son is back
The family is busy with food. This side of your house looks deserted. β
Gu Mingyuan smiled bitterly and said lonely: "You have also heard about my life experience, the Gu family can recognize me as kind, I don't expect them to be very enthusiastic about me." β
Lu Yan could feel his loss and sorrow from his words, like a child who was not valued from beginning to end. She wrapped her arms around his waist, pecked him on the cheek again, and coaxed, "Don't be afraid, I'll be with you." β
"Really? Can you promise not to leave me all the time? Gu Mingyuan asked seriously with wide eyes.
"Well, if there are no moths over there, I should always occupy Yan Yitong's body."
"Now in Canada, you can tell me about the car accident." Gu Mingyuan hugged her, "You don't know that I watched Yan Yitong return with my own eyes that day, but you didn't know where you were, how anxious and ...... you were?"
With that, he clenched his fists.
How helpless it is to watch your loved one disappear and be unable to find it all over the world.
"Tell you, tell you all. But I'm hungry now, can I eat enough? Lu Yan softened her voice and coquettishly told him.
Gu Mingyuan couldn't stand her soft cuteness, so he immediately disarmed and surrendered, and went out to find food with her.
In the end, Anthony was the host, and I had an authentic Canadian meal. Lu Yan was very interested in the maple sherbet and fried salmon with maple sugar, and drank two glasses of ice wine.
At the banquet, Anthony praised: "Sister Yan, you are the most beautiful and charming oriental woman I have ever seen." β
Gu Mingyuan snorted coldly and told Lu Yan, "Don't believe his rhetoric." If it weren't for his aunt's explicit ban on him from falling in love with domestic women, I'm afraid his romantic history would have spread all over the circle. β
Lu Yan smiled, secretly thinking about the reason why Anthony can't fall in love with a domestic woman. After thinking about it, I only thought that it might be related to Gu Mingyuan's mother, the Gu family felt that domestic women were tough and difficult, and once they got into trouble, they had to go to the skin, which was not as refreshing and neat as Western women.
"My mom is totally prejudice, prejudice. How cute mainland women are, small and exquisite, delicate and ruddy faces, waist and limbs, and a smile are all amorous. Anthony said.
"If you're not afraid of death, you can try." Gu Mingyuan had nothing to do with his own instigation.
Anthony thought for a moment and shook his head, "Come on, I'm afraid my mother will cut off my financial resources." β
After eating, they requisitioned Anthony's sports car and left him alone to go to the park.
Like little children, the two rode their bikes for a while, fed them for a while, and finally bought an ice cream and sat on a bench by the lake.
With snow-capped mountains in the distance, a blue sky overhead, and a clear blue lake in front of her, Lu Yan suddenly felt that time had slowed down, giving people the illusion that the years were quiet.
She took a bite of the sweet ice cream and slowly told Gu Mingyuan about the rebirth of Yan Yitong after the car accident. even took her to study her acting skills, made a bet with Yang Moxue and was finally destroyed by Yan Yitong, and Yan Yitong committed evil obstacles, which must be eliminated one by one before she can enter reincarnation.
After Gu Mingyuan heard this, although he felt incredible, he was expected. He touched Lu Yan's hair and comforted him softly, "I can help with Liu Mengying's affairs." She has always wanted to sign with Mandu, and I will arrange the contract when I return to China. As for director Fang Peiran, there was a little trouble. β
"What's wrong?"
"Director Fang Peiran passed away two months ago. Very few people in the circle know about it, and I only heard about it when I went there to participate in a charity event. β
"Passed away
Isn't the removal of evil obstacles a dead end? Lu Yan's heart ached.
Gu Mingyuan thought for a while and replied: "Everything has a turnaround, and a dead situation can become a living situation as long as it is planned." When I return to China, I will accompany you to his hometown to have a look, and the matter is man-made. β
"Hmm."
He assured her, and she suddenly felt that the road ahead was bright.
On the way back, Gu Mingyuan introduced Lu Yan to the people who might appear at the dinner.
"My father Gu Qidong, his fourth wife is the governor's niece Julia, my aunt Gu Qiong, her son Anthony, eldest sister Gu Lin, third sister Gu Ran, and fourth brother Gu Minglang, these people are considered close relatives. In addition, there are some distant relatives, and there is nothing to be afraid of. β
Lu Yan had only heard much information in China, and after listening to Gu Mingyuan's explanation, she felt more and more that the Gu family was complicated.
When the two returned to the castle villa, the interior and exterior were already lit up and full of joy. Pushing open the door, a room full of beautiful and handsome guests gathered to sing and dance. In the northwest corner of the living room, a woman with a beautiful back sat in front of the piano and played, Lu Yan listened to the music familiarly, but she couldn't remember what it was called for a while.
Anthony was the first to rush out and introduced Lu Yan before Gu Mingyuan spoke: "This one in red is the eldest sister Gu Lin, and the one who plays the piano over there is the younger sister Gu Ran. The others were brothers and sisters of the uncle's family. β
Lu Yan kept a proper smile and greeted them one by one.
However, they didn't appreciate it, and they kept a straight face from Gu Lin's beginning, and their attitude was neither salty nor light.
Several people gathered together and exchanged ears, speaking not Chinese or English, but French. From their expressions, they can see their dislike for Lu Yan.
Gu Mingyuan didn't care if Lu Yan understood it or not, he immediately covered her ears and reprimanded a few people who said bad things in French.
Gu Lin was not convinced, and choked back in Chinese, which he was not very familiar with: "Don't forget, you are nothing at home, where do you have the courage to give your girlfriend a head." β
She wears a red dress, her skin is snow-white, her eyes are deep, her eyebrow bones are high, and her eyes are a little fierce, which is not easy to get along with at first glance.
Gu Mingyuan was not afraid of her, and said something in French, which made her stomp her feet and lose her temper.
Gu Ran, who was playing the piano, immediately came over to play a round and said with a smile: "Sister and brother, don't quarrel, it's rare for us to get together." β
She has delicate facial features, thick eyebrows, plump lips, and is not as tall as Westerners.
Gu Mingyuan's attitude towards her was a little gentler, and he didn't speak coldly.
Several uncles and brothers and sisters next to them didn't take the opportunity to say something to ridicule Lu Yan, but just watched the excitement with their wine glasses detachedly.
Anthony quietly comforted Lu Yan and said, "Sister Yan, don't be surprised, they haven't been to the mainland and don't know what is good there, so they have prejudices against you." β
"It's okay, I'm used to it." Lu Yan smiled.
She is indeed used to it, whether it is the Yan family or the Gu family, whether it is domestic or foreign, the luxurious appearance of the wealthy family is the same.
As long as there are interests, there will be struggles.
"My family hasn't arrived yet, this kid can't be idle, and he went out on a road trip with his friends." Anthony said.
At the dinner, Lu Yan met the Gu family members. Gu Qidong looks great, does not smile, looks very stern, and has a polite and cold attitude towards Gu Mingyuan. His wife Julia, who is Gu Ran's mother, has a very kind attitude. took good care of the atmosphere at the dinner table, greeted Lu Yan cordially to taste the food, and showed the good and excellent tutor of the original family in his words and demeanor. 2k reading web
