Speaking of the Gu family, the rapid rise in the imperial capital back then was mainly due to the family property that Gu Shengze's mother brought when she married his father.

Gu Shengze's mother An Yule was originally the only seedling of the An family, after his parents died in a plane crash, that large amount of property fell into the hands of An Yule, and later An Yule and Gu Shengze's father Gu Yunting fell in love and married, the Gu family was not rich at the time, but Gu Yunting was born with business acumen, and he was stunned to use the money brought by An Yule to establish the Gu Enterprise, and developed rapidly, becoming a business group that dominated the imperial capital in one fell swoop.

In addition to Gu Yunting's father, Gu Shengze also has an uncle and an aunt, aunt Gu Yunxia has married abroad a few years ago, and Uncle Gu Yunxiao is now helping Gu Shengze manage a branch of the Gu family, as for his father, as early as seven years ago, because of a car accident, he and his mother were both killed.

……

When the dinner was over, it was only eight o'clock in the evening, so when Gu Shengze arrived at the old mansion, the old man was having dinner with Gu Yunxiao's family.

Mrs. Housekeeper walked into the restaurant from outside the door: "Old Sir, Big Sir, Big Lady, Young Master Sheng Ze is back."

Old Man Gu glanced out of the door, and sure enough, he saw Gu Shengze leading a woman in.

The old man's brows furrowed: "It's only been a long time since I saw you, and you brought a woman back?"

The displeasure in his tone was very obvious.

Gu Shengze's eyebrows were clear, but Jiang Liyin was startled, she pulled her lips, and smiled a little courteously: "Mr. Gu, I think, you have misunderstood something, I am Mr. Gu's secretary."

Old Man Gu glanced at Jiang Liyin, didn't speak, and then turned his gaze to Gu Shengze again: "Sit down and eat first!"

Gu Yunxiao, who was sitting on the old man's side, glanced at the old man: "Dad, Sheng Ze finally came back, don't be angry." ”

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Gu Shengze again: "Shengze, come, sit down and have some food, I have something very important to tell you when I come back to you this time." ”

"Brother Sheng Ze, come and sit with me." Gu Yunxiao's daughter Gu Shengya beckoned to Gu Shengze.

Gu Shengze originally wanted to say that he had already eaten, but looking at the old man's face to himself, he was afraid that if he said that he had already eaten, it would make the old man misunderstand that he was putting a face on him, so he pursed his lips, didn't speak, walked to Gu Shengya's side and sat down.

The old man snorted coldly, and the atmosphere at the dinner table seemed to be particularly embarrassing for a while because of Gu Shengze's arrival.

Gu Yunxiao's wife Mu Fanghua is a good person, and everyone has lived under the same roof for so long, so naturally they know the old man and Gu Shengze again, but after so many years, the old man's heart knot for Gu Shengze has not been untied yet, but Gu Shengze has only returned home once for so long, and he can't give him such a face, so he hurriedly smiled to ease the atmosphere: "Mrs. housekeeper, what about the bottle of wine that Mr. Big received from a foreign partner a while ago, go and get it." ”

Gu Yunxiao's hand that was originally holding the vegetables paused, and the dishes fell back on the plate.

He turned his head to look at Mu Fanghua, his face aching.

That bottle of wine was sent by a partner of country F on a business trip abroad some time ago, and it is said to be a special wine supplied by the royal family of country F, which is basically priceless, not to mention that he is not even willing to give it to the old man, and he himself is not even willing to open it until now.

Mu Fanghua rolled his eyes at Gu Yunxiao, turned his head, and when he looked at Gu Shengze, a smile changed on his face: "It is said that it is the wine supplied by the royal family of country F, if you can't finish drinking it later, I will ask someone to fill it for you to take back." ”

Gu Yunxiao probably heard the sound of his heart breaking at this moment.

Gu Shengze just raised his eyelids slightly, and opened his mouth: "Uncle and aunt have a heart." ”

"Brother Sheng Ze," Gu Shengya, who was sitting next to Gu Shengze, held her cheek with one hand, looked at him sideways, and smiled on her face, "Brother Sheng Ze, is your newly established performing arts company still recruiting people now?" ”

"Gu Shengya!" As soon as Gu Shengya's words fell, before Gu Shengze could speak, Old Man Gu, who had been sitting in the main seat and had not spoken, suddenly scolded angrily.

Hearing the old man's voice, Gu Shengya, who was still looking at Gu Shengze and blinking at the stars, suddenly pursed her lips like a frosted eggplant, turned around and lowered her head to eat steadily.

"Gu Shengya, you'd better dispel your desire to make a show for me, otherwise, you don't want to step into the door of the Gu family again!" The old man glared at Gu Shengya angrily.

Gu Shengya was a little aggrieved, but she didn't dare to contradict the old man, so she had to stuff a piece of chicken with thick juice into her mouth, and muttered in a low voice: "If you don't enter the Gu family, I will move out to live in the big deal, I really can't figure it out, why are you so stubborn." ”

After the old man scolded Gu Shengya, he glared at Gu Shengze again: "I don't know what my Gu family has done, and you are an unfilial descendant!" At the beginning, I was against what kind of acting company you set up, and you dared to set it up behind my back! How many of my old guys' children's and grandchildren's families have been ruined because of these dramas? ”

Gu Shengze's eyes deepened, and he let the old man reprimand.

The establishment of an acting company was a dream he had set for He Chenxi, and later, although He Chenxi left him, as time went by, his idea became stronger and stronger, although Old Man Gu strongly objected, but he had never gone against Old Man Gu's wishes, and he did it against his head, so he was ready for Old Man Gu to be angry.

The housekeeper's wife brought the wine.

The old man was still chattering and reprimanding, Mu Fanghua received Gu Yunxiao's eyes, and had no choice but to go over to comfort the old man: "Dad, don't be angry, Sheng Ze is also for the good of our family, now the film and television entertainment market is so good, our family has a big business, set up a performing arts company, relying on our family's assets, maybe our company can still break through in the entertainment industry!" Sheng Ze finally came back, don't scold him, let's have a good meal as a family, don't worry, you don't like drama, Yunxiao and I will definitely not let Sheng Ya get involved in that circle! It just so happens that this wine has also come up, I'll pour you a glass of wine first, let's talk about it, okay? ”

……

Almost after the whole meal, Old Man Gu didn't give Gu Shengze another look.

After eating, Old Man Gu went straight upstairs.

Gu Yunxiao patted Gu Shengze on the shoulder: "Let's go, uncle will accompany you up, the old man called you back this time, and there are indeed some things to tell you." ”

At the end, Gu Yunxiao paused, and said: "Don't blame the old man, we all know that we don't blame you for that incident back then, but we are three brothers and sisters, the old man loves your father the most, he is too sad, and he doesn't know who to vent his emotions on......"

"I know, I didn't mean to blame grandpa." Gu Shengze's eyebrows were a little cold, over the years, he had long been accustomed to the old man's attitude towards him.

Gu Yunxiao looked at Gu Shengze, who exuded loneliness and affection all over his body, and sighed in his heart, because of the incident back then, over the years, Sheng Ze, a child, has become more and more useless.

Gu Shengze followed Gu Yunxiao upstairs, and the old man was waiting for them in the living room on the second floor.

"Dad, we're here." Gu Yunxiao greeted Old Man Gu, and then turned his head to look at Gu Shengze, "Sit down, Sheng Ze." ”

The two of them sat down together, and the old man Gu raised his hand, signaled his caretaker, and put the document in his hand in front of Gu Shengze's coffee table.

Gu Shengze's brows moved.

Old man Gu looked at Gu Shengze with a pair of eyes that had gone through vicissitudes: "This is the granddaughter of my old buddy Lao Lu's family, I was specially sent back to China by Lao Lu to go on a blind date with you these days, there is her photo contact information, you are ready, take the time to invite someone to have a meal at home during this time." ”

Blind date?

Somehow, hearing these two words, Gu Shengze subconsciously thought of He Chenxi.

With a little indifference on his face, he didn't reach for the documents on the coffee table, but raised his eyes and looked at Old Man Gu who was sitting in the main seat.

Seeing that he didn't move, Old Man Gu suddenly showed a little anger on his skinny face: "What? Do you want to object? Could it be that the little secretary you brought really has something to do with you? Let me tell you, even if your future wife is not the girl I chose for you, she must be the right person for my family! Don't think you can threaten me by moving out, the household registration book is in my hands! ”

Gu Shengze knew how paranoid Old Man Gu was, he had tried to disobey him, but once Old Man Gu had a heart attack because of him, and after he was pulled back from the Ghost Gate, he never resisted Old Man Gu openly.

Gu Shengze looked at Old Man Gu's stern appearance, and moved his lips: "I don't have anything to do with Secretary Jiang, I just didn't think about finding someone to talk about marriage so early." ”

When talking about the four words of marriage, Gu Shengze's eyes dimmed a lot.

After he lost He Chenxi, he never thought about marriage again.

How much did he love He Chenxi back then?

He Chenxi always thought that she only met him in college, but she didn't know that before this, he had a crush on her for three years.

Because of family reasons, Gu Shengze can be said to have grown up doted on by Gu Yunting and An Yule.

From birth to high school, Gu Shengze can be said to be a typical child who does not learn and has no skills, skipping school, fighting, falling in love with clubbing, coupled with the aura and spendthrift personality that is born above others, Gu Shengze has always been the child king in his group of playmates.

On the day he met He Chenxi, Gu Shengze was taking his new girlfriend and his group of buddies to help a buddy block a girl at the gate of Imperial Capital No. 1 Middle School to ask for contact information.

He Chenxi walked with that girl.

When you are young, your liking for someone often begins with your appearance, especially when you are a teenager.

When He Chenxi was young, he looked good in a group of childish girls, Gu Shengze still remembers that his group of buddies were shocked when they saw He Chenxi.

Among the buddies in the same company, except for him who brought his girlfriend, everyone else was lonely, so except for him, the other buddies were almost like a pack of hungry wolves, and they were all blocked.

His little girlfriend let out a jealous "sigh" and said, "It doesn't look good, is it so exaggerated?" A bunch of single dogs! ”

Gu Shengze was a little displeased, but he didn't refute her, but he thought in his heart, you can't catch up with one-tenth of others, where do you have the confidence to say such things.

At that time, Gu Shengze already had a very thick peach blossom debt.
