Chapter 295: The Sour Smell of Love
Gu Yao immediately stood in front of Gu Yu, taking on the posture of an older brother, protecting his sister: "Teacher Ye, you scared my sister!"
Ye Wennuan was extremely surprised. Why, in just one day, did the children all become hostile towards her? The friendship she had painstakingly built early on was completely shattered!
"Mr. Gu, Madam, the children are still young and lack the ability to discern the truth. They are exceptionally intelligent, but you must be careful not to let those with ulterior motives lead them astray." Ye Wennuan immediately sought help from Gu Zhentao and Huo Yiwen.
Everyone understood that the person with ulterior motives was none other than Mu Anhan.
Gu Yao immediately raised his voice: "Grandfather, Grandmother, we children of the Gu Family inherently possess the consciousness of self-reliance and strength. How can we take on the important responsibility of carrying forward the glory of the Gu Family if we rely on others for a long time and become useless?"
Gu Zhentao gave him a thumbs up: "Well done! That’s how a member of the Gu Family should be!"
Huo Yiwen, upon hearing this, realized that Ye Wennuan was no longer a useful pawn, and she decided not to place her in this position anymore.
"Wennuan, you should leave first!" Huo Yiwen said emotionlessly.
"Madam..." Ye Wennuan wanted to showcase her abilities, but little did she know that Mu Anhan effortlessly crushed her.
Huo Yiwen didn’t look at her again and directly gestured. The guard standing outside the door, expressionless, came to escort her away.
The whole dining table fell silent, and everyone started eating. Occasionally, there were bouts of laughter, creating a rather harmonious atmosphere.
...
Changping City, oil field conference room.
Gu Xiaozhan was uneasy about Mu Anhan staying with the children at the old Gu Family residence, and he wished to finish his work here quickly and return to the Imperial City.
"Given that the number of people agreeing to start work and agreeing to inspect the oil field are the same, I will make the decision." Gu Xiaozhan looked at everyone with hopeful eyes, "Suspend oil extraction, clarify the issues, and then assess the risk factor to finally decide when to proceed."
The executive who agreed to halt operations immediately said, "Mr. Gu, you hold a high position and value people first; we are very grateful!"
In fact, the loss from halting operations would certainly be significant. Just stopping for one day would result in a significant loss of profits.
However, the lives of the workers are more important.
"For subsequent issues, you can directly contact He Gang. Until complete safety is confirmed, operations cannot resume," Gu Xiaozhan ordered in a stern voice.
"Yes!" all the attendees responded in unison.
Gu Xiaozhan walked out of the conference room, while He Gang temporarily stayed behind to handle oil field matters.
Lie Huo brought dinner over: "Mr. Gu, it’s already late, and you haven’t eaten yet. Please eat first!"
"I’ll eat when I get back to the Imperial City." Gu Xiaozhan promised Mu Anhan, and he would follow through.
Even at the oil field, Lie Huo could smell the strong scent of romance. Mr. Gu’s heart was entirely focused on Mu Anhan; even when traveling, he wanted to return to have a meal with the Young Madam.
Once on the plane, Lie Huo reported without waiting for Gu Xiaozhan to ask: "Mr. Gu, the Young Madam, despite being on foreign grounds, has utterly defeated Ye Wennuan without any resistance..."
Even in the Gu Family, Gu Xiaozhan had placed his spies. If something happened, he would hear about it.
When the plane landed at Tianqin Residence, it was already late at night.
The sky was filled with twinkling stars, and a warm light was still shining at home.
Upon entering the door, Gu Xiaozhan saw the woman asleep on the living room sofa.
The butler, Zhu Chen, took the luggage and gently set it aside.
Gu Xiaozhan crouched beside her, gazing at her lovely face...
