Chapter Seventy-Five: Settlement

Mei Shuizhen, who said goodbye to her two children, returned to her villa, and saw her husband still working in the study, and there was still a large pile of unprocessed papers on the table.

This is Xia Changming's daily norm.

Seeing his wife walk in, Xia Changming was keenly aware of the hidden sorrow in her eyes, so he stopped the pen in his hand and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" ”

Mei Shuizhen shook her head, "It's nothing, I just thought about some things before, and suddenly I was in a bad mood." ”

She didn't plan to tell Xia Changming that she had found Guoguo, because she knew what her husband was, and if he knew, he would definitely try his best to bring Guoguo back, Guoguo now has her own life, and it is very likely that Guoguo will be hurt and sad at that time.

Selfishly, as a mother, she still hopes that her daughters will have a good home, and the father of the twins is good.

However, there seems to be something wrong with the company recently, and the marriage contract has already been made, and her husband is likely to let Guoguo and Alex be together for the benefit of the family, and she doesn't want to see such a day.

Mei Shuizhen lowered her eyes and hid the emotion in her eyes.

On the other side, the two of them who released their previous suspicions stayed warm all night, and Ye Xinyuan should have slept extremely happily and peacefully this night, but in the middle of the night, she was suddenly awakened by a nightmare, sitting there with the quilt in her arms, her heart beating wildly, and she couldn't calm down for half a day.

Gu Qian was awakened by her movements, turned on the bedside lamp, and saw the fear on Ye Xinyuan's face that had not had time to dissipate.

"Yuanyuan, what's wrong?"

He wrapped his arms around Ye Xinyuan's shoulders and asked in a low voice, with a sense of comfort in his tone.

"Don't be afraid to have me here."

Ye Xinyuan couldn't help but lean into Gu Qian's arms, and was silent for a while before she spoke: "I don't know what's going on, since I came to the UK recently, I have been worried in my heart, as if something big is about to happen." ”

Gu Qian stroked Ye Xinyuan's back for a while, and comforted: "Don't think about it, don't worry, there will be nothing, besides, even if something happens, I will be by your side, and I will protect you." ”

Ye Xinyuan couldn't help but hug Gu Qian.

After such a fuss, the two of them couldn't sleep, and it was almost dawn, so they simply got up and went for a walk on the beach.

Sitting on the soft sand, with the continuous sound of the tide in her ears, Ye Xinyuan thought of the nightmare she had just now, leaned on Gu Qian's shoulder, and couldn't help asking, "What if...... I mean, if one day I was with someone else, would you be angry? ”

Gu Qian smiled and looked at Ye Xinyuan with a gentle expression, "How could I be angry with you, I will only wait for you all the time, and when you change your mind, I will stand in a position where you can see it when you turn around, and wait for you to come back with open arms at any time." ”

Hearing him say this, Ye Xinyuan couldn't help but feel sour, fortunately, now that it was dark, Gu Qian didn't see the expression on her face clearly.

calmed down the emotions in her heart, Ye Xinyuan said again: "What if I never look back, what if I never look back?" So how are you going to deal with yourself then? ”

Gu Qian lowered his head, looked at Ye Xinyuan's eyes, and said seriously and affectionately: "If you can't wait for your life, then I'll wait for you for your whole life." ”

Ye Xinyuan finally couldn't help it, tears slipped from her eyes, she smiled and gently slapped Gu Qian's shoulder, "How can you be so stupid!" ”

She buried her face in Gu Qian's neck socket, feeling Gu Qian caressing her long hair from time to time, and her mind was full of nightmares from before.

In the dream, a person forced her to separate from Gu Qian, so that they could not be together, otherwise Gu Qian's life would be lost. And in the dream, in order to protect the whole family, she had to marry another man, and then Gu Qian really waited for her whole life.

Although it was just a dream, the despair and the sense of reality in the dream still gave Ye Xinyuan a lot of psychological shadows, and now in retrospect, she still has a sense of trembling.

In her dreams, she couldn't see what the man who persecuted them looked like, she could only see a figure in the shadow, and the only thing that impressed her was that the figure was carrying a special watch on his hand, and the dial of the watch had a specially made, seven-pointed star-like decoration.

Moreover, in a dream a long, long time ago, the man named her Guoguo also carried such a watch in his hand.

Ye Xinyuan couldn't help but close her eyes and keep this incident firmly in her heart.

On the other side, the Xia family.

Mei Shuizhen, as usual, went to the study with a cup of cold brew coffee, Xia Changming was still working, he was like this every day, not only busy in the company, but also busy until late when he got home.

Mei Shuizhen looked at her husband's pale sideburns and aging face, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and said persuasively: "Don't work too hard, now the wealth we have saved is enough to squander for several lifetimes, when will the money end?" You might as well take care of your own body. ”

Xia Changming raised his head, there was a deep crease in his eyebrows, but after seeing his wife, he couldn't help but stretch out, "But I think these are far from enough, I hope that one day I can find Guoguo and give her a carefree life. ”

Speaking of this, a trace of pain flashed in Xia Changming's eyes.

At the beginning, the disappearance of his daughter was a big blow to both the Xia family and his wife, and after that, Xia Changming became a workaholic, and he has not achieved such an achievement until today.

Mei Shuizhen looked at her husband's expression, knowing that he had been angry about his daughter's disappearance for so many years, and blamed himself, and now when he heard him say these words, he couldn't help but ask himself if she had a wrong idea before, whether she was prejudiced against her husband.

Xia Changming saw his wife standing silently in place, so he raised his hand to take the coffee in his hand, and the watch engraved with a seven-pointed star on his wrist reflected a slight light.

"You're not in good health, don't always be so heavy-minded, I still want to wait until I find Guoguo and then be the shopkeeper and stay with you." Xia Changming teased.

Mei Shuizhen blushed slightly, "I'm old and still talking about this, don't you be shy!" ”

Xia Changming raised his hand and shook it, "What about the age, I still have the watch you gave me at the beginning." ”

This watch was designed by Mei Shuizhen when she was young, and she won an award, and she was supposed to sell this manuscript, and it was good to have a lot of money, but in the face of the sky-high buyers, Mei Shuizhen did not let go, but made this only watch and gave it to Xia Changming.

And Xia Changming has lived up to her expectations and has been carrying it for so many years.

Mei Shuizhen pursed her lips, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Actually...... Alex has already found the fruit......"

The next day—

No matter what happens in the nightmare, life still goes on in reality.

Today, Ye Xinyuan needed to go to a jewelry company to investigate, and after Gu Qian sent her over, she went to another place, which is now the giant of European freight - the Stuart family.

As an ancient family, Stuart heard that their ancestors still have royal blood.

However, speaking of which, they did not reach today's status because of those so-called "royal blood", they were able to achieve today's status because of their super high political skills and excellent business acumen, so such smart people would not easily compete with another powerful business emperor.

And the person Gu Qian wants to meet today is Stuart's current ruler, as well as the eldest son of the family, that is, Claudia's brother.

Behind the white-haired old man stood one of the young heirs, "Mr. Gu's mouth is very similar to my intentions, but I don't know what Mr. Gu's real purpose of prescribing these conditions is, don't you Chinese people have a saying called 'no profit can not be early'?" ”

Gu Qian leisurely took the porcelain cup in front of him and took a sip of black tea, "Old Mr. Stuart, you don't have to be so vigilant, these conditions I prescribe are not just in favor of the Stuart family, are they?" ”

The gray-haired old man smiled and didn't speak.

The young man behind him said again: "Before Claudia left home, her eyes were full of Mr. Gu, I don't know where my sister is now?" Did Mr. Gu see her? ”

The eldest son of Stuart quietly put on small shoes for his sister, and sure enough, old Stuart's brows were furrowed, as if he was a little unaccustomed to his daughter's love brain.

Gu Qian was too lazy to fight with the father and son, even if what he said next seemed to really conform to the young man's words.

What was Claudia like in her father's eyes, and what did it matter to him?

"I can't tell you the truth, I came this time because of Miss Stuart, I just want to take the above conditions in exchange, I want Mr. Stuart to call her back to China, because some of her actions in China have seriously affected my daily life and my company, and I sincerely hope that I will never see Miss Stuart again in the future."

Gu Qian's words were quite ruthless, no matter what way it was.

Old Stuart was disgusted with his daughter in person, and this matter will not be mentioned for the time being.

Let's just talk about Claudia, so that her efforts at home are basically in vain.

Old Stuart couldn't help frowning, "What does Mr. Gu mean by this?" Isn't there some misunderstanding in it? ”

After he had asked these questions, the young man whispered a few words in his father's ear, which succeeded in making old Stuart even more displeased, but this displeasure was directed at his own daughter.

He coughed, "Since that's the case, then I will apologize to Mr. Gu on behalf of the little girl, I just hope that the cooperation between the two of us will not be affected by this." ”

Old Stuart felt that what his daughter had done was too embarrassing, what kind of person couldn't marry the daughter of their family? I have to run to do that kind of thing, if it is successful, then it is fine, but the problem is that now people have been disgusted at home......

Gu Qian hooked his lips, "Of course." Moreover, he quietly thanked Stuart's eldest son who assisted him in his heart, although the two had different starting points, but in the end they could be regarded as different paths.

Gu Qian has never been a gentleman, Claudia makes him unhappy, so don't blame him for being unkind.

"I wonder if old Mr. Stuart will be able to keep his promise now?"

Suddenly, Old Stuart's face couldn't hold back, "Edward." He called his son's name, "Call Claudia, if she doesn't come back, then she won't have to come back, there is no place for her in this family!" ”

A gleam flashed in Edward's blue eyes, and he glanced at Gu Qian meaningfully, and then dialed the phone on the side to convey Old Stuart's words truthfully.

Needless to say, how angry Claudia was over there, she had achieved her goal, and Gu Qian had no intention of staying here longer, so she got up and said goodbye refreshed, and left
