458 Chapter 458 the man of the hour in city y (18)
But..
Who was this Gu Qingchen? Why did she call Rong Yu by his name!
Everyone knew that not everyone could call Rong Yu by his name. And this girl called him by his name so smoothly. It was obvious that she was used to it.
Lily was very clear about Rong Yu’s obsession with cleanliness towards women. Why Could Rong Yu tolerate a woman calling him by his name?
This was a little too strange, too strange!
Lily was a little confused. Could it be… that she had really missed out on something after going abroad for so many years?
After a while, the atmosphere in the study room was a little low. Lily was suppressed to the point that she did not dare to say a word. Although she had a stomach full of words, she could only hold them in for the time being.
Finally, it was actually elder Rong who let go first. “Alright, since I said that I would leave this matter to you, you can do as you see fit.”
Lily was shocked!
What!
It was actually grandfather Rong who relented first!
And he still used such a tone!
Even if she did not know what had happened, she knew that grandfather Rong himself might not agree with what Gu Qingchen wanted to do, but he actually agreed!
Agreed!
This was something Lily could not imagine. Grandfather Rong, who had never known what compromise was, would actually compromise!
Lily could tell that this matter was probably related to the Rong family, and grandfather Rong allowed Gu Qingchen to do as she pleased.
This was something Lily had never dared to imagine before, or rather, Lily had never considered this problem.
But today, when she really saw this scene, she could not remain calm.
Gu Qingchen curled her lips slightly, as if in an instant, she had retracted her domineering aura. There was not a trace of it at all.
She even smiled sweetly at Grandfather Rong, a completely different person from before.
“With grandfather’s approval, I don’t have to be afraid anymore. Thank you, grandfather.”
Grandfather Rong seemed to be a little helpless, but also a little helpless against Gu Qingchen. In the end, he just shook his head and sighed, “You are so smart. Even if I don’t agree, you will be afraid?”
Gu Qingchen touched her nose and smiled, but didn’t say anything.
But Grandfather Rong was right, she really wouldn’t.
Grandfather Rong glared at Gu Qingchen and continued, “Maybe I don’t agree. You are even more decisive when it comes to doing things! Since stopping you will backfire, why not let you do it? I believe that you have a sense of propriety, right?”
What Grandfather Rong said had a deep meaning. How could gu qingchen not understand what grandfather Rong meant.
It was nothing more than telling her that she could mess around, but she could not hurt the roots of the Rong family.
Gu Qingchen was a sensible person. She nodded, “I will remember what grandfather said. Grandfather, don’t worry.”
When Grandfather Rong saw that Gu Qingchen agreed, he sighed in relief and nodded.
To be honest, he really could not figure out this Gu Qingchen. This girl was just like Rong Yu, she had hidden her emotions too deeply. It was not easy to reveal her emotions, so no one could guess what she was thinking, let alone what she would do.
Of course, the reason why grandfather Rong allowed Gu Qingchen to do as she pleased was not because he was really frightened by Gu Qingchen’s imposing manner.
It was Gu Qingchen’s words that gave him a hint.
Perhaps by letting Gu Qingchen do as she pleased this time, she could really clean up the Rong family’s internal affairs. Or rather, she could give those within the Rong family who had ulterior motives a warning.
In the end, the Rong family still had to be handed over to Rong Yu. Today, Gu Qingchen could be considered to have reminded him that there were some people in the Rong family who still needed to be taught a lesson.
In case when the time came, he would cause any more trouble. In the past, he did not teach those people a lesson because grandfather Rong could not be bothered with them. Furthermore, there wasn’t a suitable person to step forward. He wouldn’t do that if an old man like him stepped forward!
If he were to let Rong Yu step forward, it would be even more impossible. Old Man Rong was very clear about Rong Yu’s character.
Therefore, Rong Yu basically wouldn’t step forward in such matters. If Rong Yu really did step forward, then it wouldn’t be a simple beating.
The Rong family might suffer heavy losses and no one would be able to escape.
Therefore, this matter was put aside by grandfather Rong and he never thought about it again.
After hearing Gu Qingchen’s words today, this thought suddenly appeared in grandfather Rong’s mind.
That’s right!
Previously, he could not find a suitable person, but there was one right in front of him?
Gu Qingchen’s identity was absolutely suitable, and he completely believed in this girl’s ability and methods.
Therefore, this was the main reason why he relented. Lily couldn’t understand, but Gu Qingchen could.
It was precisely because Gu Qingchen had read grandfather Rong’s mind that she dared to look at grandfather Rong like this.
After all, grandfather Rong was an elder. If she really confronted Grandfather Rong, as a junior, Gu Qingchen would naturally be impolite.
However, Gu Qingchen saw through grandfather Rong’s thoughts. If she did this again, she would not leave a bad impression on grandfather Rong.
Finally, Lily felt that the atmosphere seemed to have eased up a lot. The atmosphere in the study room was not as oppressive as before. She then sized up Gu Qingchen, looked at grandfather Rong, and asked with a smile, “Grandfather Rong, who is this?”
From the moment Gu Qingchen entered the study room until now, grandfather Rong had not introduced Gu Qingchen to Lily, and Gu Qingchen had not introduced herself either. The two of them had been discussing matters there, and now she finally found an opportunity.
Only then did grandfather Rong come to a realization and said, “I’m really old. Look at my memory, I actually forgot to introduce you two.”
Lily smiled slightly and said very appropriately, “How are you old? Before I went abroad, you were like this. Now that you’re back, your complexion seems to be better.”
Grandfather Rong smiled and looked at Lily with a gentle gaze, “Little Girl Qingchen, this is Lily. She was adopted by Rong Yu’s mother for a period of time. Lily, this little girl is called Gu Qingchen. She’s Rong Yu’s wife.”
What?
Old… wife?
Whose?
Rong Yu’s!
A crack appeared on Lily’s solemn face. She couldn’t wait to write on her face that this was impossible!
Lily stood there in a daze for a long time. Grandfather Rong could also see that Lily was shocked by this news.
Grandfather Rong expressed his understanding towards this point. In fact, when he found out that Rong Yu had married a wife, he was also extremely shocked in his heart.
It was because Rong Yu’s attitude towards women was very clear. It was precisely because of Rong Yu’s previous actions that everyone thought that Rong Yu would never have a woman.
It was even more impossible for him to marry a woman!
This was even more shocking than the red rain from the sky or the sows climbing up the tree.
“This… this… this, how is this possible! Why would Rong Yu Get Married?”
Lily was obviously a little out of control. Other than shock, there seemed to be something else.
Grandfather Rong did not notice, but Gu Qingchen did.
Gu Qingchen sized up the lily, but only slightly raised her red lips.
