Chapter 255: The Gu Family's Attention
Gu Xuanwu walked over and said, "The mobile phone jointly developed by our two companies has become a leader in the industry, which shows that our combined strength is formidable. Zhan Yanxun has already allied with the Hawke Casper family, and today's events have thoroughly slapped Zhan Yanxun in the face."
Zhan Yanxun will deal with the Jiang family and the Gu family in the future, so our two families must unite.
Today's events were so sudden that my wife publicly announced the marriage alliance with the Jiang family. If you refuse, the Gu family will lose face. Therefore, there is only one solution: you can treat it as a contract marriage and sign a three-year contract marriage agreement with our son.
After Gu Xuanwu finished speaking, Li Wanyin wanted to give him a kiss. Her husband had been quite capable today, at least more so than her son. No wonder he had managed to win her over!
Fearing that Jiang Qianhui would refuse, Gu Xunjing quickly said, "Dad, you're really too shrewd. You're forcing Suihui to become your daughter-in-law. You're only after Suihui's business acumen and money-making ability. You're truly cunning and treacherous, a sly old fox."
Gu Xuanwu said proudly, "After cooperating with Miss Jiang, our company has already made a fortune of 20 billion. I am a businessman, so naturally I am considering things from a business perspective."
Gu Xuanwu looked at Jiang Qianhui and said, "Miss Jiang, you were the one who approached me for cooperation first, and now we can continue our cooperation. If you sign this contract, you can keep your child, and our Gu Group can gain more funds. It's mutually beneficial for both of us, and there is no sacrifice involved."
Old Gu has grasped Sui Sui's feeling of guilt. Tan Cai's acting skills are quite good. Li Wanyin quickly cooperated.
"Sui Sui, you can think about it. In public, you're Xun Jing's wife, but in private, you're my daughter. Don't worry, if you don't agree, I absolutely won't let this brat take advantage of you. You're doing this for your child, and my Gu family is doing this for money. How about we cooperate?"
There doesn't seem to be a better way now, so Jiang Qianhui took the contract and said, "Thank you."
Gu Xuanwu: "We should be thanking you. You are an auspicious omen. You can bring wealth to our family. Our Gu family is especially greedy for money."
Gu Xuanwu is very enthusiastic about public welfare and often goes to do various public welfare activities with Li Wanyin. How could someone like him say that he is greedy for money?
Jiang Qianhui glanced at the contract. It essentially stipulated that she would pretend to be the daughter-in-law of the Gu family in public. The contract was for three years, and if she dissolved the engagement after three years, the Gu family would compensate her with 300 million yuan for emotional distress over those three years. If she was willing to continue the business relationship, she would receive 30% of the Gu family's shares.
It's as if the entire Gu family belongs to her.
This is a marriage of convenience!
Gu Xuanwu also said that he was a profit-driven businessman, which seemed like a losing proposition.
Li Wanyin leaned closer to examine the contract in Jiang Qianhui's hand closely, afraid that Jiang Qianhui would suffer a loss.
She said, "A clause should be added to this contract stipulating that there can be no actual marriage; it's just a marriage in name only."
Gu Xunjing was furious when he heard this; he was sure his mother wasn't an undercover agent!
He whispered, "Mom, you've gone too far. Are you an undercover agent?"
"How can you talk like that? You're just trying to take advantage of me."
Gu Xunjing said pitifully, "Mom, I dare not! But could you please make a note on it that if I don't want to, we can't have marital relations?"
Gu Xunjing felt that this was better than a complete rejection; at least there was still some hope.
"Fine, I've added it for you. You're just delusional, thinking Sui Sui will agree. But I'm warning you, if you dare to take advantage of Sui Sui, I'll definitely beat you to death."
If someone saw this, they would think that Li Wanyin was Jiang Qianhui's mother.
Li Wanyin continued looking at the contract, then said, "Also, even if Sui Sui doesn't want to stay together in the future, Sui Sui's child will still receive 5% of our Gu family's shares. After all, they called us grandpa and grandma."
Women are generally quite thoughtful; she considered not only marital matters but also the child in Jiang Qianhui's womb.
Jiang Qianhui was very surprised. This child was not one of their Gu family's children, yet they were willing to give him shares, especially since they were separated.
Gu Xuanwu said, "Madam, you are right. This child was born into our Gu family, and in three years, he will already be calling us grandpa and grandma. Since he has called us grandpa and grandma, we should be responsible for him to the end. If Miss Jiang does not maintain this relationship with Gu Xunjing by then, we will give the child 5% of the shares. We must ensure that this child will have no worries about food and clothing in the future."
The Gu Group owns 5% of a listed company's shares, which is more than just enough to live comfortably; it's an absolute fortune.
This is a completely unequal treaty.
Gu Xunjing suddenly asked expectantly, "I wonder if Sui Sui's baby is a boy or a girl? I saw on the ultrasound that the baby has very long legs, but the head is a bit big."
Li Wanyin slapped Gu Xunjing angrily and said, "Who are you calling big-headed? Your head is big! But long legs are fine for both boys and girls."
Li Wanyin said with increasing excitement, "I hope it's a girl. I hope she can be as beautiful as Sui Sui. I'll take her to beauty pageants in the future, and she can win a beauty pageant like her grandma did."
Gu Xuanwu said in a serious tone, "Boys are fine too. If sons won't do, we'll use grandsons to practice."
Gu Xunjing: "..." I was adopted, right?
"Boy or girl, as long as it's Sui Sui's child, that's fine. I really want to know what it looks like!"
Looking at this family, anticipating the arrival of her unborn child, Jiang Qianhui felt a complex mix of emotions.
In his previous life, the child's biological grandmother and father were not even happy when they learned of his existence.
Xie Qingyi used to humiliate her, and she thought it was just because Xie Qingyi wanted a grandson. But when she found out Xie Qingyi was pregnant, she wasn't happy. And Zhan Yanxun didn't care about the child in her belly either.
Apart from her, her children were practically unwanted by the Zhan family.
Now you can see how excited and expectant the Gu family is about the baby in her belly.
She felt a soft spot in her heart stir; the child she had been hiding was now loved and looked forward to.
"Sui Sui, when are you going for your prenatal checkup? I'll go with you. You're getting further along in your pregnancy, so you need to be extra careful."
Gu Xunjing said excitedly, "Mom, you wouldn't be trying to take this job from me, would you?"
Gu Xunjing was speechless. Now that his parents knew, he had gained another competitor. He already had very little time to spend with Sui Sui, and now his mother wanted to get a share of the pie.
"I'm afraid you, a roughneck like you, won't do a good job."
"Don't worry, I already bought a hospital so that Sui Sui can have prenatal checkups. I will definitely give Sui Sui and the baby the best care."
