Chapter Ninety-Six: Dilemma
The car drove for about an hour.
Gu Tinghan and Song Tao returned to the Gu family's old mansion together.
This time Gu Xuzhong returned to China, and the old man did not tell other relatives the news.
There was silence in the big house.
Song Tao and Gu Tinghan entered the house and came to the living room, and saw the old man making tea with Gu Xuzhong.
Song Tao raised her eyebrows, looking at the back, her figure was five or six points similar to Gu Tinghan.
"Are you back?" Auntie, take their luggage and go to the room to pack it. ”
As soon as the old man heard the movement, he raised his head and looked at them happily.
Gu Xuzhong didn't have a trace of reaction, and tasted tea with a calm face.
"Xuzhong, this is your daughter-in-law, you haven't been able to see each other for so many years, and you don't even look at it. ”
The old man looked down and saw that his son was unresponsive, so he frowned slightly.
When Gu Xuzhong heard his father say this, he came to his senses and raised his eyes to stare at Song Tao and Gu Tinghan.
When he met Gu Xuzhong's eyes, Song Tao's heart suddenly jumped twice.
This man's eyes feel full of vicissitudes and sharpness, and he is by no means a simple character.
This was the feeling that popped out of her heart when she saw Gu Xu for the first time.
"I've seen it, and it seems that Tingshen's vision is just like that. ”
Gu Xuzhong didn't move his eyelids, his reaction was mediocre, and he spoke bluntly in front of the two of them.
Song Tao's hand clenched secretly.
The old man snorted coldly, "You haven't gotten along, don't jump to conclusions." ”
Seeing that his son has been abroad for so many years, his temper is still so hard, and the old man does not expect to be able to communicate clearly with him in a short time.
"You two sit down quickly, I heard that you've been very busy lately, and you don't have time to come and see me, the old man. ”
Gu Xuzhong took in the situation in front of him.
Looking at Song Tao, who was talking happily with his father, his eyes rolled.
It seems that this Song Tao still has two brushes that can make the old man happy.
It's just that from beginning to end, he didn't really regard Song Tao as his daughter-in-law.
In his opinion, Song Tao has never been worthy of his son Gu Tinghan.
"I heard that you are now in charge of the Song Clan, and you have recently won a big project?"
Gu Xu opened his mouth coldly and asked Song Tao.
"Father, it's you who have a good reputation, what I did was just a small fight, and this project has just been officially launched recently. ”
Song Taoqian waved his hand, pressed down his black eyelashes, and a smile appeared on his face.
She has been married to the Gu family for so many years, and it is not wrong to call him father.
It just fell in Gu Xu's middle ear, which sounded quite harsh.
He frowned slightly, and his eyes became sharper.
"That's right, the Song family has little involvement in the real estate industry, since you married into the Gu family, why don't you learn to be a virtuous helper and help Tingshen take care of the Gu family's official affairs?"
This is a proposition.
Gu Xuzhong's cold eyes scanned the past, and there seemed to be no trace of emotion.
Song Tao's eyes flashed, feeling his dislike for himself, and realizing that he was deliberately embarrassing himself.
"Father, you may not know, in the past, I also helped Tingshen in the Gu family, but the Song family is my father's life's work for me, and I can't ignore it. ”
"Okay, let me ask you, there has been a situation in the Gu family recently, how can you help?"
Gu Xuzhong tugged at the corners of his mouth, and looked coldly at Song Tao, who was embarrassed by himself.
Seeing that she showed a stunned look, she was sure that she had done nothing after the Gu family's situation this time.
"Xuzhong, you're enough, I called you home this time, not to make it difficult for you to come back. ”
The old man sensed that the atmosphere was wrong, frowned and warned his son, wanting to interrupt the conversation between the two.
Song Tao stretched out his hand to stop the old man, and his expression returned to the same as before.
"Indeed, something has happened to the Gu family recently, and I must not have as much energy as Tinghan. ”
She admitted Gu Xuzhong's statement.
In his opinion, his existence may not be of much help to the Gu family.
If she didn't like someone, she thought, no amount of explanation would be a quibble.
"There is a specialization in the art industry, Gu's accident can be dealt with faster by him personally this time, I talked to him about the difficulties encountered by Gu after work, and also gave some small advice, I don't know if this is a help. ”
Song Tao said frankly, without any hint of concealment.
Just when Gu Xuzhong wanted to open his mouth to embarrass Song Tao, Gu Tinghan couldn't watch it from the sidelines.
He had been silent, interrupting his father's speech,
"Okay, now that I've dealt with this company's accident, I don't have to worry about this matter anymore. ”
Gu Xuzhong lifted his eyelids and coldly glanced at his son, who had no waves, and could see that he really cared about Song Tao.
He snorted coldly, "With this ability, Gu Tinghan, you only have this kind of vision." ”
The old man was upset when he saw that Gu Xuzhong wanted to disturb the peace in the family, and he felt distressed for a while.
"Grandpa, are you alright?"
Song Tao immediately noticed that something was wrong with the old man, and hurriedly got up and stepped forward to check the situation.
She casually took out the medicine from his pocket and fed it to him, skillfully.
Two men watched anxiously.
The maid also stepped forward to help the old man upstairs.
Let people go back to their rooms to rest.
"You go and contact the doctor, bring someone in, and see how your grandfather has a sudden seizure. ”
Gu Xuzhong pointed his hand and instructed Gu Tinghan to leave.
He furrowed his brows and glanced at Song Tao who was standing at the door of the room.
She gave him a look and motioned for him to leave, he could do it himself.
Gu Xuzhong stared deeply at his father who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and said that it was impossible not to be nervous.
However, what is more important at the moment is to make it clear to Song Tao.
"You come with me. ”
Song Tao looked at his tall back, took a deep breath, and followed.
When they came to the balcony, only the two of them were left.
"You did a good job just now. ”
The fine lines at the corners of Gu Xuzhong's eyes wrinkled slightly, and he squinted his eyes and looked at the scenery from afar.
He went straight in and pierced Song Tao's disguise.
Song Tao knew from the beginning that Gu Xuzhong didn't like him.
And in the public battle with him just now, she could feel that he was in a hurry to separate herself from Gu Tinghan, and she was very disgusted by her existence.
It's like there's a better candidate.
It's just that she didn't expect people to be so direct, and as soon as she came up, she said that she was acting in front of people.
"I don't know why you said that, father. ”
Song Tao looked confused.
Gu Xuzhong sneered, his face tensed, and his calm eyes were calm, making it clear,
"Now it's just the two of us, and we don't have to act. I have already looked for a partner for Gu Tinghan abroad, and I think you should also be aware of this matter. ”
He lowered his head and wrenched the jade ring of his thumb, his tone was cold, and his whole body exuded uncomfortable oppression.
"I know that you two are sham marriages, and you can separate right now without any repercussions. ”
