Chapter 228 Leaving The Gu Mansion

Chapter 228 Leaving The Gu Mansion

He bent down and took off the white cloth, revealing what was on the plate.

Standing on the plate there was a little pig made out of snow.

The pig figure looked extremely realistic, and there were two small black beans that were made into eyes. He Xinyan frowned slightly as she wondered where Gu Yechen got the beans from.

The facial expression and every little detail made the pig look even more realistic. He Xinyan couldn't help but think that the pig was extremely cute.

"You went out to make this?" He Xinyan furrowed her eyebrows together as she asked Gu Yechen.

"Mhm!"

"Why did you make this?"

"To fulfill your wish," Gu Yechen replied.

He Xinyan raised one eyebrow as she looked at him confusedly.

He walked over to where she was sitting and sat down next to her, pulling her into his embrace, "Xinyan, I will never eat pork in my life anymore."

". . ."

How does not eating pork relate to building a snow pig?

She knew perfectly well that he was only trying to make her happy by building the pig.

He Xinyan let go of the pillow and grabbed Gu Yechen's hands. They weren't red anymore, but they were still very cold.

Gu Yechen held onto her hands as well.

"The pig is going to melt," He Xinyan said with a frown as she looked towards the cute little pig.

"It's okay, I can make it again."

"No!" He Xinyan immediately responded. 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

"Why?" Gu Yechen was slightly taken aback by He Xinyan's firm response.

"Well. . . Um. . . it's too cold outside." He Xinyan blinked a few times as she avoided making eye contact with Gu Yechen.

"Go wash your hands with hot water to warm it up. It's too cold!" He Xinyan said, pretending to let go of his hands because she didn't like the coldness.

However, they both knew that she only told him to go wash his hands because that way, his hands would warm up faster.

Gu Yechen smiled gently, "Okay."

The next day was the last day Gu Yechen and He Xinyan were going to stay at the Gu mansion. The next day, they would be leaving.

Although many of the family members were very annoyed and angry about this since they would be the first people to leave, no one could change their decision and no one tried.

During the last dinner, Wang Yani suddenly spoke to Gu Yechen, something she hasn't done in quite a while.

"Gu Yechen, Xiner is at the age to start working now. You can set up a good position for her at the Gu Corporation, so she can start working. Help her out too since she is a new worker."

He Xinyan raised one eyebrow as she continued to eat and savor her last meal here. So, Wang Yani was setting up new opportunities for Yechen and Gu Kexin again.

Ah. . . Was she ever going to get tired?

Gu Kexin smiled as she looked up at Wang Yani, who smiled back at her.

Gu Yechen put a peeled shrimp onto He Xinyan's plate as he replied, "I can give her a position in the company, but it will be based on her skill."

Both Wang Yani and Gu Kexin furrowed their eyebrows together.

"What skill?" Wang Yani, her tone a little more angry than before, "Xiner just graduated from college and this will be her first job. Of course, she has no skill yet! That is why you need to help her as her brother!"

Gu Yechen lifted his head up slightly, "The Gu Corporation doesn't use 'unspoken rules' in their hiring of people. Even if she is a member of the Gu family, that doesn't mean that she will immediately get a high position in the Gu Corporation."

"But -"

Gu Yechen immediately cut Wang Yani off, "This is also a reason for why the Gu Corporation is doing so well right now. . . because we don't use any lowly methods as other companies do."

Wang Yani's face turned slightly red. So he was saying she was the type to use lowly methods?!

Noticing that the situation was getting a little out of hand, Gu Kexin immediately spoke up.

"It's okay, grandma! Brother Yechen is right! I can start off as a small worker. I will definitely prove to him that I am capable and won't rely on the Gu family or anything else except myself."

As she said this, she looked towards He Xinyan. But to her disappointment, He Xinyan's head was buried inside her bowl as she ate, and she didn't notice Gu Kexin's meaning behind her words.

Well, to be exact. . . He Xinyan didn't even hear Gu Kexin's words.

Wang Yani wasn't very pleased that Gu Kexin sided with Gu Yechen right now, and she angrily stood up from her chair.

With an angry glare at Gu Yechen, she turned around and walked away.

Even if she was the eldest member of the Gu family alive, she had no power in the Gu Corporation. Gu Yechen was the ultimate authority of the Gu Corporation, and even his uncles or even his dad couldn't control him in terms of making decisions in the Gu Corporation.

He had led the Gu Corporation on a better path, and therefore he was trusted with the corporation. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢

The Gu Corporation was just a part of all the other businesses and areas the Gu family meddled in, but it was also the largest part.

Therefore, even though he was a younger generation in the Gu family, he still had a lot of power and wasn't afraid in front of his relatives. . .

Well, he wasn't afraid in front of anyone.

Gu Kexin, noticing that her grandma was mad, immediately ran after Wang Yani.

--- Inside Wang Yani's Room

"Grandma," Gu Kexin said sweetly as she walked in.

"Hmph! You are all grown up now and you have forgotten about your grandma now!" Wang Yani said, obviously upset.

Gu Kexin sat down next to Wang Yani and grabbed onto her arm, "Of course not! I will never forget grandma! Grandma is my favorite!"

Wang Yani's expression softened slightly, but she still frowned, "Ch! You are already siding with that unfilial Gu Yechen now!"

"No, grandma. I want to prove myself. If I just use you to get a good position in the Gu Corporation, then everyone will look down on me! However, if I work hard myself and climb up, then brother Yechen will be able to look at me differently."

Wang Yani's mouth opened slightly as she nodded her head, "True, true. My Xiner is very smart."

Seeing that Wang Yani was happy again, Gu Kexin relaxed slightly.

"Grandma, I won't be able to come to see you often if I begin working in the Gu Corporation. Will you miss Xiner?"

Wang Yani smiled, "Of course I will! Xiner, you have to come and visit me as often as possible. I am getting old, and I don't know how much longer I can see you -"

"Grandma, don't say things like that! Grandma will live very long!"

Wang Yani laughed happily, "Okay, okay. My only wish now is to stay alive long enough to see you get married and have kids."

Gu Kexin blushed and looked down, "Well. . ."

"I know, I know. You like your brother Yechen, right?"

Gu Kexin didn't respond but the blush on her cheeks got redder.

Although Wang Yani wasn't very pleased with Gu Yechen's actions, words, and attitude towards her, she still had to admit that he was a very attractive and powerful man.

As her most successful grandson, Wang Yani obviously wanted Gu Kexin to be with Gu Yechen.

She placed one hand onto Gu Kexin's hand, "Don't worry, Xiner. Grandma will help you. I will definitely find a way to get rid of that He Xinyan."

Gu Kexin nodded her head, "Thank you, grandma!"

The next morning, He Xinyan and Gu Yechen left early in the morning without even eating breakfast.

They were supposed to go with Gu Kexin that day since Gu Kexin was moving into the area they lived to work in the Gu Corporation.

However, Gu Yechen. . . being Gu Yechen, didn't care at all and didn't even mention the fact that Wang Yani had insisted on Gu Kexin leaving along with them.

When He Xinyan reminded him, he seemed to have forgotten about this altogether, and he just shrugged it off.

At the end, when Gu Kexin and the rest of the Gu family woke up, Gu Yechen and He Xinyan were long gone.

---

Back in the area of Country Z they lived, the black car stopped in front of Gu Yechen's large mansion.

"Ah! Home sweet home!" He Xinyan stretched happily as she hopped out of the car and entered the mansion. She was so glad to be back from that place. . . Although she will definitely miss the food.

It was lunchtime already when they arrived, and since they had skipped breakfast, they were both very happy.

They ordered food from outside, and as they were eating, there was a sudden phone call.

From Gu Kexin.
