Chapter 324 Her confidence
Chapter 324 Her confidence
Chi Yize looked at the lights and flowers all over the yard and nodded with satisfaction.
He didn't believe that all this was arranged by Chi Yihan's servants. It must be that his grandfather saw that Manyi was pregnant and wanted to make Manyi happy.
Grandpa asked Chi Yihan to agree to the family gathering, and he was also telling them that if Manyi gave birth to the Chi family's great-grandson, their status would also rise.
Although he didn't really like Gu Manyi in his heart, Gu Manyi's belly was really good and she got pregnant so quickly.
He was an educated top student, so he naturally knew that whether the baby was a boy or a girl depended on the man. It didn't matter if the current baby was not a son, as long as the next one was.
And doesn’t the old man like girls?
Maybe the old man would like it more if he had a girl.
The tenderness on Chi Yize's face at this moment came from the heart.
After all, Gu Manyi made him proud, so he would not be stingy in giving her even a little bit of love.
Chi Yize slowly parked the car, opened the door, and held Gu Manyi's hand: "Wife, go slower!"
Gu Manyi took Chi Yize's arm and walked towards the main house, imagining that this place would belong to them soon. She would have to rearrange everything here, and she would have to throw away everything related to Chi Yihan and Ji Youran, preferably in front of them.
But it seems a bit of a pity. According to her thoughts, Ji Youran may not be able to see this scene!
When the two of them walked to the main entrance, Gu Manyi's face instantly darkened when she saw Chi Yihan hugging Ji Youran and helping her put on a red shawl.
This family dinner was the engagement party that the old man agreed to hold for her and Chi Yize. The date of their wedding and the fact that she was pregnant with her great-grandson would also be announced at the dinner.
Even if they were standing outside to greet guests, it should be her and Chi Yize. When would it be Chi Yihan and Ji Youran's turn to be the center of attention?
Gu Manyi really misunderstood.
Ji Youran didn't come out to welcome the Chi family's branch branch. She is the wife of the head of the family. Who has the face to let her come out to welcome them?
Only these people came in and respectfully called her "Mistress", so why should she lower her status?
If this person is short-sighted, there is really no hope for him.
Just consider the little things in front of you.
"Chi Yihan, Ji Youran, what do you mean?"
Gu Manyi is now in high spirits. She will not swallow her anger like before.
She felt that since they had the old man's support, there was no need for them to be submissive and humble when speaking to Chi Yihan and Ji Youran.
Ji Youran, Chi Yihan: "..."
Why did you suddenly jump out like crazy?
Ji Youran raised her head from Chi Yihan's arms. Her small face, which was the size of a palm, was already delicate and beautiful like a porcelain doll. Now she had dressed up with great care. At this moment, she was not ten blocks ahead of Gu Manyi, but she was definitely eight blocks ahead.
Even Gu Manyi had to admit that Ji Youran was very beautiful and charming at this moment. Even though she had tried her best to dress up, she was still outshined by Ji Youran.
Compared with Ji Youran, she seemed like a joke, a meaningless clown.
Gu Manyi clenched her fists, her eyes filled with resentment like a poisonous snake.
"Mr. Gu, your Gu family is truly well-educated! Second Aunt, you'll need to take extra care of her in the future. Gu Manyi hasn't married into the Chi family yet, so she's still considered a daughter of the Gu family."
"This shameless and unreasonable thing is considered to be the Gu family. If you marry into the Chi family in the future, you still have to abide by the rules."
"Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu, don't you agree?"
Ji Youran leaned in Chi Yihan's arms, and Chi Yihan hugged her waist tightly. This was the source of her strong confidence.
She doesn't need to act or speak according to anyone's mood.
"Ji Youran!"
Gu Manyi really wanted to slap her in the face.
Even if Chi Yihan was there, Gu Manyi was not afraid. She was pregnant now, and Chi Yihan didn't dare to attack her. Even if she couldn't beat Ji Youran, she would at least put a stop to Ji Youran's arrogance and domineering attitude.
"Manyi."
Mr. Gu spoke in a deep voice.
"Today is your and Yize's home turf. We don't need to waste time arguing with irrelevant people. But Yihan, you grew up under the eyes of this old man. Don't let the so-called feelings blind you."
"We lost several big contracts and the company we were about to acquire."
"Open your eyes from now on and don't mistake fish eyes for pearls."
Old Master Gu looked at Ji Youran meaningfully.
His thoughts were obvious.
Ji Youran is the eyes of the stinky fish, and his precious granddaughter is the night pearl of the East China Sea and the pearl of the South China Sea.
It is a priceless treasure.
"Brother Yihan, what does Grandpa Gu mean by this?"
Ji Youran pretended not to understand and asked innocently, "Could it be that someone picked up our unwanted things and thought they were treasures?"
"What's with the fish-eye pearl thing? Grandpa Gu is saying that the little princess of the Ji family is not as good as the daughter of the Gu family?"
"If the identity of the little princess of the Ji family is all a lie, then how about the identity of the jewel in the palm of the Lu family!"
Mr. Lu's voice was deep, yet still had the intimidating power of someone who had long been in a superior position.
The people Chi Yihan and Ji Youran were standing outside waiting for were not the Chi family's side branches, but the Lu family.
Mr. Lu has always regretted not attending Ji Youran's engagement party. Now they are going to get engaged again at the man's house, and Chi Yihan decides to give Ji Youran a surprise.
"Grandpa Lu, Dad Lu, Mom Lu, why are you here?!"
Is this the reason why Chi Yihan found an excuse to let her out for some fresh air?
When Ji Youran saw Mr. Lu, she smiled and ran over.
"Come and take up your post. Yihan said there's a family dinner today and invited us over, saying it's a good time to celebrate."
Mr. Lu didn't mention engagement.
He took one look at Gu Manyi's attire and knew that this woman had bad intentions. She probably didn't know what was going on today.
"you are!"
This guy is wearing a military uniform, has the surname Lu, and has come to the imperial capital to take up his post. Could it be that...
It was the Gu family’s mortal enemy, the Nanshi Lu family!
The Gu family lost to the Lu family in the battle for power. What was the meaning of Chi Yihan inviting people to the family dinner today? Was he deliberately trying to disgust the Gu family?
"Yihan, today is the Chi family's family dinner. It's not appropriate for you to invite Mr. Lu's family!"
The two families didn't get along, so there was no need for Mr. Gu to give face to the Lu family.
Besides, he was not wrong.
In what capacity did the Lu family come to the Chi family to attend the family dinner?
"Grandpa Gu also said that this is the Chi family's family dinner. If you can come, why can't my Grandpa Lu, Dad Lu, and Mom Lu come?"
Ji Youran held Mr. Lu's arm and spoke innocently.
"Girl, you're still so blunt and outspoken. Luckily, you're a junior and have been pampered and protected by us since you were little. Otherwise, those people would have transformed into wolves and tigers and eaten you alive!"
Old Master Lu touched Ji Youran's hair with a doting look on his face. When he looked up at the Gu family again, the smile in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by a cold look.
This attitude couldn't be more obvious. They were not fools, so how could they not hear that Mr. Lu was comparing them to wild beasts in his words?
