Big Shot's Sweetheart Shocked the World Again!

Chapter 1048: Mr. Bo Never Picks the Right Time to Roast People!

"The other party is funding it? What’s their background?""Are they a male or female reader?"

Bao Gucheng and Gu Yuzhi asked simultaneously.

One was concerned about the purpose and background of the investment, and the other only cared about the gender.

Gu Qiusha chuckled, "Mr. Bo, brother, you’re overthinking it. It’s just a simple tea party, not spending much money. I’ve discussed everything with her, keeping it economical and comfortable is enough. Oh, by the way, she’s a beauty! Although we haven’t met in person, our online conversations are efficient and smooth. I quite like her!"

Bao Gucheng temporarily put his doubts aside.

As long as it’s not for the purpose of harming Gu Qiusha commercially, after all, he had to report to Zuzi and protect her family.

Gu Yuzhi still felt somewhat uneasy inside, even knowing the other party was female. However, hearing Xiao Sha say "I quite like her" inexplicably made him feel a bit jealous.

Moreover, with online friends you haven’t met, who knows if they’re truly a beauty or a burly man with stinky feet!

"Zuzi, do you have classes that day? Can you also attend? For some reason, with you around, mom is always more at ease." Gu Qiusha shook Xi Rubao’s slender arm, giving one a momentary illusion that their mother-daughter roles had reversed.

Xi Rubao softly smiled and replied, "Mm-hmm."

Xi Rubao was already flipping through the schedule: "Free! My sister is free!"

Bao Gucheng followed up: "Don’t worry, Miss Gu Wu, I’ll be driving to the school to pick up Zuzi that day. We’ll arrive on time."

"Good, good, good." Gu Qiusha was delighted with three goods in a row, thinking Mr. Bo is truly a caring elder. The old master only asked him to tutor, but he didn’t expect him to care so much for the children, even worrying about them after they went to college. This is excellent after-sales service, absolutely wonderful.

While Gu Qiusha was feeling pleased, Qin Tao, the second daughter-in-law, suddenly exclaimed: "Oh, speaking of hosting gatherings, I just remembered. Zuzi kept mentioning a distant guest earlier. Isn’t it the email grandfather received this afternoon from Seventh Cousin, saying she didn’t make it back in time for the last family gathering and is returning home soon to visit, planning to stay with us for a while? Could it be related to this event?"

Gu Xizhi nodded vigorously, holding his wife’s hand: "Right, right, Seventh Cousin, who’s lived abroad for years, is also considered a distant guest, and it happens to be a kind of marriage prospect..."

At that point, he suddenly felt a sharp pinch from his wife’s hand.

He hadn’t realized it yet and continued with a grievance: "Wife, I’m not mistaken, am I? Didn’t Seventh Cousin have a child marriage agreement with our elder brother when we were little? Big brother, isn’t that so?"

Upon hearing "Seventh Cousin," Gu Yuzhi’s expression already turned unpleasant.

At that moment, the second brother specifically mentioned him, making it impossible for him not to respond: "That was just the older generation’s nonsense, how can it be taken seriously?"

As he spoke, he nervously glanced at Gu Qiusha, thankful that she was busy finalizing the reader meetup’s exact timing with Xi Rubao, not catching this side of the conversation.

Instead, Mr. Gu snorted unhappily, blowing his beard: "What’s this nonsense? Are you saying your old man is blind? Xiao Qi is an excellent child like you, a law graduate with a high academic level abroad, possibly even more famous than you. She’s also good-looking, how is she unworthy of you?"

Gu Yuzhi wanted to say he didn’t mean it that way. Regardless of how outstanding Seventh Cousin was, nothing could happen between them, as emotions can’t be forced.

But before he could defend himself, Bao Gucheng’s voice suddenly came from the side: "Lawyer Gu, you’re not young anymore. You should heed the elder’s guidance and give more thought to your significant others."

Gu Yuzhi: "...!"

He had only sarcastically remarked earlier about Bao Gucheng being overly concerned with Xi Rubao and Gu Qiusha, yet after so long, this cunning man still found an opportunity to retaliate?!
