Gu Junzhu cocked his head to look at her, “Sis, you’re thinking too far ahead! Let’s talk about the future when it comes. Aren’t you tired of thinking so much at such a young age? Besides, with the talent your son has, it’s not even clear who would benefit from whom in the future!”
Ye Xingbei was speechless, shooting him a glare, “Don’t I avoid taking advantage of you? You and your dad are big-hearted. You married me off to your place without even signing a prenuptial agreement. All the money you make in the future will be our shared property. Just by sitting in this car and doing nothing, I can take lots of your money every day. You and your dad really don’t care about anything!”
Gu Junzhu fell silent for a moment, shook his head, and then suddenly chuckled, “If you had five children and only one little son is left in the end, you wouldn’t care about who gets the money. If you could save my life, my dad might even give you the whole Gu Family!”
Ye Xingbei was taken aback by the sadness in his voice.
She had just met Gu Junzhu yesterday.
At first glance, this man seemed like the Thousand Year Cold Sword out of its sheath, cold and imposing. His whole persona conveyed the ambition and dominance of a leader. One look from him made her feel chilled to the bone. Those of faint heart might even be frightened into submission by his gaze.
Later, he appeared indifferent, carefree, noble and elegant, as if he was a privileged nobleman.
…Well, not as if, he was in reality.
The Gu Family is one of the top-ranked families in the country, and Gu Junzhu is a money-making machine.
He has a wide range of interests and ventures all around the world. Anything he does turns into gold. He is like the pet of the God of Wealth, always reaping immense profits.
No one can accurately measure his entire fortune because his ventures are too many.
In short, he is rich!
When Ye Xingbei received the investigation report on the Gu Family and Gu Junzhu yesterday, it felt like a dream.
If it weren’t for the rumors that Gu Junzhu was on his deathbed and that his widow wouldn’t be allowed to remarry after his death given the Gu Family’s prestige, there might be enough women wanting to marry Gu Junzhu to circle the earth several times over.
And yet, a man with money, good looks, status, temperament, and aura became her husband overnight!
If Jiang Siyou knew that the rumors of Gu Junzhu’s impending death were a hoax spread by the Gu Family intentionally, Jiang Siyou might cough up several liters of blood in shock!
After they slept together that day hastily met face to face, they knew very little about each other.
Yesterday when she received Gu Junzhu’s investigative profile, it only contained some superficial information. Anything deeper couldn’t be found.
Today, Ye Xingbei found Gu Junzhu, who was the man of many words, very interesting. His dialogues were pearls of wisdom, sparking with wit.
It seemed as if he was not so hard to get along with.
She had read in her collected information that Gu Junzhu was a typical high-maintenance guy, demanding and peevish.
After all, he was a bona fide rich young master, unlike her who grew up like a wildflower. It’s normal that he had so many quirks given that his affluent family spoiled him.
However, the Gu Junzhu she encountered today was completely different from the one she had imagined.
Seeing the sadness he inadvertently revealed, she was stunned.
It’s not that she thought he wouldn’t feel sad.
It’s just that she figured that someone like Gu Junzhu, even if he were to cry his eyes out in private, would face the outside world with a stiff upper lip, never letting anyone see a sign of weakness.
