Mr. Gu, my wife has blocked you.

Lin Shu was stunned, silent for a moment and said, "I don't know either."

Gu Jingyan's eyelids twitched. "What do you mean you don't know? You are so clear-headed when you are working, but you don't know about the important things in life?"

Lin Shu stretched out his index finger and tapped his temple, which was his habitual action when he was stumped.

Gu Jingyan didn't rush him and waited quietly for his answer.

After a long while, Lin Shu finally said, "As Jingyang's brother, you may be unhappy to hear this, but I really don't know how to say it. I just think it's okay to get engaged or not. I get along well with the eldest lady, but if I say I'm attracted to her, I'm not too attracted to her. I don't reject being with her, but I don't feel the same way about her as you do about your wife, that you must be with her."

Gu Jingyan said unhappily, "Why didn't you refuse when grandma asked you just now?"

Lin Shu whispered, "I just thought that the chairman's health is not as good as before, and Madam Gu is unreliable. She wants to find a reliable person to accompany Jing Yang while she can still move. Since she chose me, I am willing to take on this trust and take good care of Jing Yang so that she can rest assured."

"Peace of mind!" Gu Jingyan couldn't help but swear, "If you can't find her, then don't find her. Can't our Gu family afford to support her? You don't reject her if you don't like her. Are you planning to get married and then divorce her?" Lin Shu was not confident, "It's not that I don't like her, but I don't like her that much. And I won't file for divorce unless she insists."

Lin Shu is not a young man in his early twenties, he will soon be thirty. Naturally, he cannot be as passionate in relationships as young people. When dating with the purpose of getting married, he will first think about many things other than feelings. Reason will take over, and it is difficult for him to be as devoted as when he was a teenager.

Gu Jingyan said unhappily, "What if you meet someone you can't live without after you get married? Will you still be so sure?"

Lin Shu thought Gu Jingyan was worried that he would betray Gu Jingyang in the future, so he said, "I can sign a prenuptial agreement. If I have second thoughts, I will leave the house with nothing."

Gu Jingyan said sarcastically, "Who would care about your little wealth?"

Lin Shu...

Don't be so humiliating. After all, he earned it through all his hard work over the years.

Gu Jingyan still felt that it was not enough, "Besides, why should I let you make do with my sister? She is so old!"

Lin Shu vomited blood.

Why do these words sound so much like the wife's?

"Not too much, are you? Aren't you five years older than your wife?"

Ever since Gu Jingyan's marriage became sweet, he has used his sharp tongue and potential for eye bags to attack the people around him.

He glanced at Lin Shu and said, "Comparing with me? Do you have an advantage in appearance or in making money? Your only advantage is that you have a good temper and can coax people, but you have the Gu family to back you up. Do you think it's difficult for Jing Yang to find such a partner?"

Lin Shu was hurt, but there was no need to put it so bluntly.

Gu Jingyan continued, "Jingyang's temper, you have been with me for so many years, I don't believe you don't understand it. If she has no feelings for you, she will not agree even if a knife is placed on her neck. You usually claim to be sober, can't you really not understand it?"

Lin Shu lowered his head and said nothing.

Gu Jingyan sighed, "I told you from the beginning that this is just a blind date. If you think it's suitable, then go with it. If not, then forget it. Lin Shu, you don't owe the Gu family any favors, and the Gu family doesn't need you to compromise."

Lin Shu stammered, "I don't think so."

Having said that, he fell silent. He indeed didn't think so, but that didn't mean he wouldn't do it subconsciously.

If the girl that Gu Jingyan introduced to him for a blind date was a girl who matched his own qualifications, he probably wouldn't be so cautious and hesitant. But the girl he introduced to him was Gu Jingyang, the pampered daughter of the Gu family. Even if he tried to get along with her as normally as possible, he would subconsciously always prioritize her feelings based on her identity.

For him, this mode of getting along may be more like a job assigned by his leader, so he can say that it is okay to get married or not.

Gu Jingyan's statement of compromise was an understatement, in his heart he also regarded this matter as a kind of sacrifice on his part.

No one needs him to sacrifice, it's just that he subconsciously cares about his unequal background, and that bit of self-esteem makes him unable to let go and get along with Gu Jingyang openly.

Now that Gu Jingyan had pointed it out to him, he suddenly felt ashamed. This kind of thinking was not only irresponsible to himself, but also disrespectful to Gu Jingyang.

"What should we do? I'm afraid the old lady has already contacted my mother." Lin Shu whispered to Gu Jingyan for help.

"You ask me, who should I ask?" Gu Jingyan was annoyed. After a while, he said, "Go and explain it to Jingyang yourself. Just tell her that you have no feelings for her and don't want to get engaged. First, stop her from thinking about it, and then go and explain it to grandma."

Lin Shu hesitated, "So direct?"

Gu Jingyan sneered, "Why, do you still want to keep her hanging?"

Lin Shu...

After Gu Jingyan was kicked out of the office, Lin Shu hesitated for a long time, but finally walked towards Gu Jingyang's office.

The office door was not closed tightly, and Gu Jingyang was talking on the phone. His voice came through the crack in the door and reached Lin Shu's ears word for word.

"We should be engaged this month. It depends on which date grandma has someone pick. Of course, once the date is confirmed, I will let you know as soon as possible."

"He's just so-so, not as handsome as my brother, but he's OK. He doesn't talk much, but he works a lot, like an old mother, controlling everything. It was annoying at first, but after getting to know him more, he's... pretty good. He drives well, shoots well, is good at fishing, and can make people happy."

"Go to hell! I was talking about driving properly!" Gu Jingyang was a little angry about what he said. After a while, he whispered, "We just held hands."

"My grandmother likes him very much."

"I'm... okay," she said softly, lowering her eyes, "I like it."

Lin Shu tightened his grip on the door handle and accidentally turned it, startling Gu Jingyang who was on the phone.

She turned her head, first relieved, then a little annoyed, and glared at him, "Why didn't you knock on the door!"

Lin Shu said, "The door is not closed."

Gu Jingyang hung up the phone and whispered, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Lin Shu kept thinking about the phrase "I like you" and when he blurted out the words after writing it for a long time, he said, "Do you want to have dinner together tonight?"

Gu Jingyang's ears turned red. "I...I may have to work overtime. I haven't finished my work yet."

Lin Shu said, "Then, shall I help you?"

Gu Jingyang lowered his head and bit his lower lip gently. "If you are not busy, it's all right."

Gu Jingyan waited in the office for a long time but Lin Shu didn't come back. He thought that maybe he was beaten by Jing Yang. Thinking of this, he could no longer sit still and stood up to try to stop the fight.

As a result, when he went to Gu Jingyang's office, he saw Lin Shu standing behind Gu Jingyang, holding the mouse, operating the computer and explaining to her.

Gu Jingyan?
