After rebirth, the paranoid boss dotes on her

After a long while, Gu Wenhua remained silent, and Gu Jingzhan began to get impatient.

He warned coldly: "If you don't tell me, I'll leave and don't talk to you again."

Gu Wenhua slowly stopped what he was doing, poured a cup of tea, and pushed the exquisite tea cup in front of him.

"I want to return to the Kuo Group and join the board of directors."

Gu Wenhua finally spoke, his voice calm and firm, as if he was talking about something extremely ordinary.

Hearing this, Gu Jingzhan sneered, stared at Gu Wenhua sharply, and asked him, "Why do you think you can do this?"

"Because my last name is Gu." Gu Wenhua responded calmly, "Besides, I hold 8% of the shares of Gu Group."

"so?"

"So, I have the right to request to join the Gu Group's board of directors."

Gu Jingzhan's eyes froze into ice in an instant, and his words were full of contempt: "When Gu's got into trouble, you ran away to the United States to escape. Now that Gu's has overcome the difficulties, you want to come back and get a piece of the pie?"

Gu Wenhua turned a deaf ear to what Gu Jingzhan said, and his ugly face gradually revealed itself.

He smiled calmly and advised: "You have managed Gu's for so many years and have worked hard. Wouldn't it be better for you to stay at home and spend more time with Miss Xiang?"

"not good!"

Before Gu Jingzhan could speak, Xiang Wanqiao couldn't help but answer for him.

"I don't need him to stay at home with me 24 hours a day. With a wife like me who spends money on his business, how can he support me if he doesn't work hard to build his career?"

Gu Jingzhan tilted his head and his gaze fell on Xiang Wanqiao. The corners of his originally cold mouth slightly curled up, and the coldness in his eyes was instantly replaced by doting.

Xiang Wanqiao continued, "Besides, I'm not the type of woman who is a good wife and a loving mother. Even if he stays with me at home every day, I may not be able to be with him all the time."

After hearing her words, Gu Wenhua frowned, with a hint of displeasure in his brows.

He said in a deep voice: "Miss Xiang, I am your elder after all. Is it appropriate for you to talk to me like this?"

"I think it's quite appropriate." Xiang Wanqiao responded provocatively, "I wouldn't hold back even on Ms. Wen, let alone you."

She looked confident and determined, without any fear or retreat.

Gu Wenhua recalled the scene of last night and was speechless for a moment.

"Uncle Gu, even if the entire Gu Group was given to you, you might not be able to hold it firmly in your hands. Otherwise, you would not have chosen to run away when Gu Group got into trouble."

Xiang Wanqiao spoke at a steady pace, and every word she said was a mockery of Gu Wenhua.

"Tell me, am I right?"

Gu Wenhua's face suddenly darkened, and his fingers tightly gripped the tea cup in his hand, as if he was about to crush it in the next second.

Gu Jingzhan stood up, adjusted the buttons of his suit jacket, and stared down at Gu Wenhua condescendingly.

"I hate being threatened the most. If you dare to hurt even a hair on Qiaoqiao's head, I guarantee that your illegitimate child will not have an easy life either."

When Gu Wenhua heard this, he finally became furious.

He slammed the table and stood up, confronting Gu Jingzhan angrily: "You dare!"

At this time, Gu Jingzhan's heart had calmed down, and his clear voice contained unquestionable determination.

"See if I dare."

After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to Wanqiao and said gently, "Qiaoqiao, let's go home."

Xiang Wanqiao smiled at him, put her hand into his large palm, and stood up from the chair with the help of his force.

Before leaving, she also left a piece of advice to Gu Wenhua.

"I don't like being threatened by others. If you dare to touch Gu Jingzhan, I, a little girl, don't mind playing with you."

After the couple had threatened each other, they disappeared without a trace in the box, leaving Gu Wenhua alone, helpless and furious.

The tea is cold and people have left.

After leaving Qingyuzhai, Gu Jingzhan fell silent and didn't say a word the entire way.

Xiang Wanqiao had been secretly paying attention to his emotions and could feel the indescribable low pressure in him.

Although he tried hard to pretend that he didn't care, the pain he had suffered would always remain in his heart and could not be easily erased.

After returning to Guiyuan, Gu Jingzhan did not stay for long. He walked silently towards the study and locked himself in.

Xiang Wanqiao looked at his lonely back and felt a sense of sadness in her heart.

Naturally, Aunt Wang noticed that Gu Jingzhan was in a bad mood and thought that the couple had had an argument, so she hurried forward to find out what was going on.

"Madam, what happened to the gentleman? Did you...have a fight?"

Xiang Wanqiao shook her head and replied sullenly, "No, it's just that he encountered some troubles, which made him feel a little upset. Let him be alone for now."

After listening to Xiang Wanqiao's explanation and knowing that it was not a quarrel between the couple, Wang Ma felt relieved.

So she suggested: "Then I will go make a cup of tea for Mr., and you can bring it to him later to comfort him."

Xiang Wanqiao nodded in agreement.

After Wang Ma had made the tea, Xiang Wanqiao brought the tea to the door of Gu Jingzhan's study.

She raised her hand, knocked on the door three times, and said, "Ah Zhan, it's me."

However, after waiting for a few seconds, the person in the study did not respond.

Xiang Wanqiao frowned slightly and spoke softly again: "Ah Zhan, I'm coming in."

After she finished speaking, she pulled down the door handle and the door of the study slowly opened.

Gu Jingzhan put his hands in his pockets, stood upright in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scenery in the distance, wondering what he was thinking.

I just felt that his back looked so lonely and isolated, as if he had been abandoned by the whole world.

She suddenly wanted to go up and hug him.

While Xiang Wanqiao was thinking this, she also did so.

She placed the teacup on the table, walked quietly behind him, slid her hands across his waist, and tightly wrapped them around his solid waist.

Xiang Wanqiao wanted this warm hug to drive away the haze in Gu Jingzhan's heart.

She gently leaned her head on the man's broad back, her voice was a little depressed and dull: "Don't be sad, you still have me."

Gu Jingzhan lowered his dim eyes and tightly closed his thin lips, as if he was trying his best to suppress the emotions deep in his heart.

After a long while, he spoke slowly, his voice hoarse and low: "It's not that they don't like children, they just don't like me."

Every word is filled with a sense of sadness, carrying with it the helplessness of being unable to change the facts, which makes people feel unbearable heartache.

Xiang Wanqiao's heart seemed to be blocked by something, like a thorn in her throat, and for a moment she didn't know how to comfort him.

"Qiaoqiao, tell me, why can't I grow up in a loving family?"

As the words fell, a silent tear rolled down Gu Jingzhan's eyes.
