directly from conversations with some workers, which was beyond her expectations. She initially thought it was just a simple due diligence investigation of the factory, and at most, the employee shar...She pretended to be joking and laughing on the surface, but secretly observed Gu Ruandong. 。She'd been shooting night scenes recently, leading to a disrupted sleep schedule and limited time for communication with him. She wasn't oblivious to his occasional bouts of low spirits, so she'd been making an effort to spend her free time at the Gu Group, accompanying him. Of course, finding him a new secretary was also on her agenda; as his personal assistant, she needed to carefully vet candidates. She was becoming increasingly self-aware of her role as Mrs. Gu. 。Gu Ruandong was touched to see her actively integrating into his life and work. Even though she was being managed, even though she didn't have freedom, she did it willingly. 。

It was rare for them to finish work early this year. They decided to have dinner outside before going home. Considering their last restaurant experience, they didn't order a blind box this time. Instead, they went to his club to eat private dishes. After all, both of them were picky eaters. 。Seeing them arrive, the manager of the club hurried over to greet them. After nodding and greeting Gu Ruandong, he walked straight towards the private room he usually frequented. The manager's face was unusual, stammering: "Young Master Gu, please wait a moment, let me clear the place" 。"Is anyone there" he asked, stopping in his tracks. 。Mr. Xu and his team are inside. 。The person in charge was unlucky. The big boat hadn't visited for a long time, and Shao Gu had been absent for ages. Today, both happened to come together, and it just so happened that the private room was theirs, not open to the public. 。Gu Ruandong, with YaoYao, didn't want to meet Da Fang and the others. So he told the person in charge: "Could you arrange another room for us" 。As soon as the words left his mouth, the door to the front room suddenly swung open. The sound of fighting—clanging and crashing—mixed with the shattering of glass bottles. 。

Several shadowy figures stumbled out, closely followed by a few men from the large ship wielding weapons and shouting curses in pursuit. 。Gu Ruandong's first reaction was to reach out and pull YaoYao behind him, protecting her. He stood in the hallway, his cold eyes fixed on the few people who had run out. 。His aura was too strong. The few people who had run ahead saw him and ran even more frantically, The large boat that had been pursuing them seemed to have not expected to see him here, it abruptly stopped its advance. The several menacing figures behind him also froze in place. 。

"Young Master Gu, Sister-in-law" 。The man was tall and strong. When he saw Gu Ruandong, the flames of anger in his eyes were instantly extinguished as if doused with a bucket of cold water. He knew he was in the wrong for causing a commotion at the club and explained, “Those bastards stole my business>>> 。Gu Ruandong didn't want to get involved in his messes, so he just nodded and took Yao Yao away. 。After taking just a few steps, Dafang shouted loudly: “They are robbing Dayin’s territory!” 。Lu Yaoyao only felt Gu Ruandong's hand holding hers stiffen, so she stopped and said, "Let's go take a look." 。He is such a loyal person, he couldn't possibly ignore these brothers, especially when it comes to things related to Dakai. Dakai's death must be a wound in his heart that he can't escape. 。Lu YaoYao dragged him and turned around, walking towards the big boat. 。"I didn't send someone to look after Da Jin's place, did I" Gu Ruandong asked coldly. 。

Big Fang: “With Da Jin gone, and you not appearing often, these bastards won't even bother hiding anymore. These venues are all that Da Jin left for his family, I have to protect them for him.” 。Lu Yao Yao could hear that there was a hint of complaint towards Gu Ruan Dong for ignoring them in Da Fang's words. 。I will take care of it. 。Gu Ruandong only said a simple sentence, not much to say, but with his words, Dafang felt comfortable in his heart. At least it proved that he still had them in his mind. 。

He warmly invited them to dine in a private room. In the meantime, the club manager had already had people clean the private room thoroughly. 。

"Some other time" 。Gu Ruandong didn't want to ruin the rare night he and Yaoyao had together. 。。Lu YaoYao tugged at his hand, urging him to go. She was thinking about the mining company in the southwest that he had mentioned before, weren't those shareholders still arguing "Sister-in-law, this way," 。Upon seeing the great ship, he immediately opened the door and gestured them inside with a welcoming air. 。He intended to make peace, and also saw that Gu Shao Ting listened to that young lady. So he called her "sister-in-law" very affectionately. 。

If this had happened before, Lu Yaoyao wouldn't have liked the term "sister-in-law" very much, especially since Da Fang and the others weren't young anymore, calling her that made her feel old. But now, she thought it was fine, even nice. 。What was supposed to be a date between the two of them had turned into such a social gathering. Gu Ruandong was worried for a moment that she would be unhappy, so while they were at the table, he leaned back in his chair, one hand resting on the back of her chair, constantly observing her reaction and ready to leave at any time. 。

It was a bit of a surprise, she adapted well and chatted happily with several people on the big boat. 。The big boat offered her a toast, but she refused and forbade Gu Ruandong from drinking. 。At the banquet on the grand boat, he was boisterous and shouted, "Big sister-in-law, you don't have to drink if you don't want to, just let Gu Shao drink for you." 。Then Gu Ruandong took the cup and prepared to drink for her. 。She snatched the cup away with lightning reflexes: "You can't drink! Didn't you promise me you'd quit smoking and drinking" Gu Ruandong's hand froze. He remembered what he had said that night during their intimate moment, so he put the cup down. 。"Sis-in-law, don't be so strict, okay Gu Shao can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. " 。"He can't drink, it's not convenient for him. " 。"Lu Yaoyao is very principled, no means no." 。Because of her overly serious expression, Gu Ruandong's heart skipped a beat, giving him the illusion that she was truly serious about preparing for pregnancy. 。At that moment, he really wanted to open her heart and see what she truly thought. He didn't want to pretend everything was fine anymore. 。So, I took the cup of wine from her hand and drank it in one gulp. 。Lu Yao Yao was furious, glaring at him angrily. 。He drank, and she drank, so he picked up the other glass beside him and wanted to drink it down, but Gu Ruandong grabbed his wrist and stopped him. 。Her eyes were red with anger, "What's the point of me being so enthusiastic if you don't take it seriously" Gu Ruandong's heart skipped a beat again and he said to Dafang and the others, "Let's go first." 。After finishing his sentence, he put an arm around YaoYao's shoulder and walked out. 。"What are you doing I haven't had a drink yet." 。She dug her heels in, she wasn't leaving until she had a drink. 。But she couldn't overpower him, and he practically carried her out of the club until they reached his car. Only then did he put her down. He didn't speak, just stared at her as if trying to see right through her. 。Lu Yaoyao just now was clearly angry, but now she's been subdued by his overwhelming aura. She leaned against the car door, shrinking herself smaller, looking very timid, her tone even turning into coquettishness: "What are you looking at me for It was your fault in the first place! Don't you keep your promises You promised not to drink anymore>>> 。"Why can't you drink" he asked in a composed voice. 。"What do you think Who drinks alcohol while trying to conceive" "Trying to conceive" He repeated. 。Lu Yaoyao looked at him with a puzzled expression: "What else Or are you saying you never even thought about this" Gu Ruandong saw her calm demeanor, his temples throbbing. He didn't say a word, shoved her into the car, got in himself, and told the driver to take them home. 。Lu Yao saw the changes in his expression, unable to tell if he was angry or something else. So she poked him and said, "You haven't answered my question yet, don't you want children"elegant script:Some flowers bloom high up in the trees.Tinglan recognized these characters.
