The true record of a female CEO’s loyal dog
Chapter 96 If it weren’t for you, how could my mother die?
"Shall I practice Tai Chi with you?"
It was a cold winter night. Sheng Yan tightened his nightgown and began to walk into the house, "You are the one trying to flirt with me, right?"
When Gu Xu saw that Sheng Yan was wearing very little, he didn't stubbornly refuse to enter the house. He followed Sheng Yan and said coldly, "Have you seen all the news on trending searches?"
"I have indeed seen a lot of news, but which one are you referring to?"
After entering the room, Sheng Yan walked to the coffee table, poured water for Gu Xu, and motioned for Gu Xu to sit down on the sofa.
The furnishings in the room were still familiar to Gu Xu.
The oil painting of water lily painted by Gu Lan himself hangs on the fireplace in the reception area. Gu Lan is not a famous painter, this water lily painting is just a whim, and he only has some superficial painting skills.
Gu Xu didn't expect that after so many years, Sheng Yan hadn't changed the layout of the house?
He couldn't help feeling a little sad, but for Gu Lan's sake, he stopped choking Sheng Yan and said bluntly: "I'm with Shu Xue, she is my girlfriend now."
"Oh~" Sheng Yan sat opposite him and lazily crossed his legs, "That's great. I originally wanted to introduce Shu Xue to you from the beginning. As I said, you and her are very destined. Destiny. As a result, it’s your stuff that can’t be evaded.”
Gu Xu didn't understand what medicine Sheng Yan was selling in the gourd. How could he be so leisurely today?
But he could probably guess that Sheng Yan was using his love for Shu Xue as a bargaining chip, so he was confident.
Thinking of this, the trace of childhood warmth that remained in Gu Xu's heart was instantly gone.
He couldn't help but roll his eyes at Sheng Yan, "The reason I came here today is to tell you not to have any ideas about Shu Xue and the Shu Group from now on."
Sheng Yan sneered and said: "I have already said that there is a problem with the capital chain of Sheng Group. If it does not rely on external support, it will not be able to survive for two years at most."
"Now you and Shu Xue happen to be in love, and the Shu Group happens to have the ability to solve the Sheng Group's troubles. As long as she is willing to help us, the Sheng Group's losses can be minimized, and it will be insignificant to the Shu Group. Isn’t your little girlfriend recently engaged in some reform and transformation in the Shu Group? She can even quit the real estate market at the drop of a hat, so why would she care about this little problem of the Sheng Group? "
"Do you think Mr. Shu didn't investigate the financial situation of the Sheng Group before he considered marrying the Sheng Group? An old fox like him doesn't care, so why are you worrying so much here?"
Sheng Yan's words were reasonable and well-founded, with almost no loopholes. He thought he could get rid of Gu Xu, but who would have expected——
"I have never interfered in your business, and because I was young when my mother passed away, I don't have much memory of the conflicts between you and her."
Gu Xu's eyes were deep, as blazing as an eagle aiming at its prey.
"But, I remember it very clearly."
He raised his hand and pointed to the spiral staircase leading to the second floor, "One time you had an argument with my mother and accidentally pushed her down the stairs."
"Later in the hospital, you knelt in front of her bed and confessed and promised that you would agree to all her requests and that you would never do illegal business through shipping again. But afterwards, you did not fulfill your promise."
"A year or two later, your shipping business became more and more prosperous, and it was almost the only one in Xin'an Province. It was at this time that those people outside who had been squeezed out by you and went bankrupt began to break the rules. kidnapped my mother and me."
Gu Xu became more and more excited as he talked. He put his hands on the coffee table and threw himself at Sheng Yan. He continued with scarlet eyes: "Originally, they just used our mother and son as bargaining chips to let you live. But you didn't agree! You No promise!"
"I really don't understand. Even if you don't want to make concessions in the business world, our mother and son's lives are already hanging by a thread. So what's wrong with you just to appease the kidnapper and just lie casually?"
"Why didn't you! Why didn't you take us seriously! Aren't we your relatives!"
"If it weren't for you, how could my mother die?"
Gu Xu finally couldn't hold it any longer and cried bitterly in front of Sheng Yan.
He lowered his eyes and looked at his hands, and the memory of that year seemed to be vivid in his mind: "Blood kept seeping out from the wound on my mother's back, and I couldn't stop it. When the police killed the kidnapper and the medical staff rushed upstairs, my mother He has long since lost his breath."
"I just watched my mother die in front of me, watching her blood slowly soaking through my clothes."
Gu Xu couldn't help but roared at Sheng Yan: "Do you know what this feels like? Do you know how painful it is for me? In the following years, I almost couldn't sleep every night. Because as soon as I closed my eyes, that picture of me was in my mind The image of my mother dying in my arms.”
"If you were just doing the shipping business, why would there be so many changes? Don't think I can't guess what you have done secretly..."
"So, your business is so dirty, how could I let Shu Xue get involved? I will never walk the same path my mother walked!"
"The reason why Grandpa Shu Xue is willing to marry the Sheng Group is because he doesn't know what you are doing behind the scenes. If he knows, let alone your fantasy that Shu Group can inject funds, even if Shu Xue and I are together Don’t think about anything.”
Having said this, Gu Xu couldn't help but laugh at himself: "However, the current situation is not much better."
"Don't say you don't know I went to the Shu family's old house today."
"Grandpa Shu Xue doesn't support me being with Shu Xue, and he even asked me to break up with her unceremoniously. The only solution now is for me to tell him that I am your son and relieve his doubts about me. But I It’s impossible to really go with the flow and let you get what you want, I won’t do anything to hurt Shu Xue.”
"If you still regard me as your son and are willing to let me have a happy marriage, then I hope you will stop trying to take advantage of the Shu Group."
Sheng Yan was silent for a long time, and Gu Xu thought he would be at least a little moved. Unexpectedly, Sheng Yan never called him "disappointed".
"I'm sorry about your mother. I regret it too... I didn't expect the kidnapper to really break up the fight."
Sheng Yan asked him expressionlessly: "If I understand correctly, what you said is that you just want to be with Shu Xue by using your identity as the 'Sheng Group's Young Master', but you don't want to make any sacrifices for the Sheng Group." Any contribution?”
Sure enough, he shouldn't have dreamed of having a relationship with Sheng Yan. He was still planning his business at this moment and revealed the death of Gu Lan in just a few words.
Why do I have illusions about Sheng Yan? Haven't you seen him clearly after all these years?
However, Gu Xu couldn't help but wonder: Is business really that important in Sheng Yan's heart? Better than him and Gu Lan?
"According to what you mean, you don't agree?" Gu Xu's heart completely cooled down. He could really treat Sheng Yan as his father as if he didn't exist in the future.
"It's not that I don't agree, it's that you don't show enough sincerity to make me agree."
Sheng Yan was still quarreling with Gu Xu, "You never understood that I only have a son like you. All the money of the Sheng Group is left to you. Helping the Sheng Group is helping yourself."
"How can you take the side of outsiders and turn against me?"
