Eighties Sweetheart Wife-Chapter 594: The Regretful Old Mr. Gu

The meeting was held in great secrecy, as it was the first of its kind.

The content of the meeting was shocking, and it was related to the previous Venom Fang incident.

It turned out that both Song Yunuan and Kurt Gymm were involved.

The small island had been dominated by Venom Fang for over ten years, and their secret research was halfway completed.

Apart from a few individuals, the scientists and engineers on the island were either deceived or kidnapped.

The small island was almost completely isolated from the world.

The country that owned the island was fighting with a neighboring country, so no one governed it.

Actually, Venom Fang’s power wasn’t far from here, but they were too powerless to intervene.

Venom Fang had partnered with a military weapons dealer.

This person was recently killed in an internal struggle.

He messed with someone he shouldn’t have, and without Venom Fang, he couldn’t manage on his own.

It sounds simple, but the internal strife was indeed thrilling.

Anyway, the secret of the small island was exposed just like that.

Kurt Gymm and Zhong Shaoqing were on good terms, so he naturally knew about Zhong Shaoqing and the small island.

He also knew where it was.

It wasn’t until Kurt Gymm and his father Hans set foot on the island that they realized it belonged to Zhong Shaoqing.

Then, they discovered a huge secret.

Who could take over?

It was like a hot potato.

But it was also very tempting.

If it were managed well, the benefits could be enormous.

The good thing now was that Zhong Shaoqing was the owner of the small island.

You have to admit, fate is indeed miraculous.

The big ship that was half-built and the related documents now just depended on how much money was needed.

If you really calculate it, should the rent for the small island be considered?

Even though there was no inheritance yet, everyone knew that by this time next year, Zhong Shaoqing would certainly have inherited the fortune.

The meeting went smoothly, with almost no objections.

With so many things on her plate, Song Yunuan decided to let Zhong Shaoqing handle everything.

Old Master Gu hadn’t returned home for several days, as he was very busy.

The chaos stirred up by Little Nuan shocked everyone.

He still had to continue to keep a lookout.

Otherwise, things would really reach new heights.

Not figuratively reaching new heights, but literally so.

If one day Song Yunuan asked him to look at a spacecraft, he probably wouldn’t be surprised.

He told himself to take it slow, there was no rush.

He could wait for his grandson.

Old Master Gu thought to himself with a smile, and was just about to leave.

Gu Jiaojiao saw that her grandfather was in a good mood, so she took his arm and asked to go find Song Yunuan.

Meanwhile, Shu Xiang and Gu Huaiming entered the house with smiles on their faces.

The smile on Gu Jiaojiao’s face disappeared immediately.

But she had been warned many times before.

If she didn’t learn her lesson, she deserved to be punished.

She didn’t like Shu Xiang. After her elder brother got a girlfriend, he started treating her poorly, his heart only had Shu Xiang in it.

She stealthily glared at Shu Xiang, then said to Old Master Gu, "Grandpa, let’s hurry up and go. I want to go play with Sister Little Nuan."

Shu Xiang’s smile stiffened for a moment.

Did she see her and didn’t want to talk, so she avoided her?

Standing awkwardly to the side, but considering her parents’ advice, Shu Xiang still mustered the courage to say, "Are you going to see Little Nuan? I really liked the hairpin that Little Nuan gave me last time. My sister-in-law is good at embroidery and made a wallet for Little Nuan. Could you deliver it to her for me?"

Saying so, she took out a wallet from her purse.

The sky-blue brocade had several orchids embroidered on it.

It looked very elegant and refined, clearly made with care.

Gu Huaiming was snickering on the side and even suggested going out to eat together.

Gu Jiaojiao didn’t take the wallet and felt upset, especially facing Shu Xiang and seeing her big brother’s silly smile, her heart was truly sour.

In her brother’s eyes, there was only this woman.

He didn’t even like his once most beloved little sister anymore.

Gu Jiaojiao turned her head away awkwardly and said stiffly, "Go find her yourself, I don’t care!"

Then she muttered under her breath, "It’s just a lousy homemade wallet, so tacky."

Shu Xiang’s outstretched hand stopped mid-air.

Her face reddened with embarrassment, and tears suddenly fell.

Old Master Gu regretted it so much.

He regretted not having sent Gu Jiaojiao back to her room to study earlier.

He felt that he would rather face thousands of troops than confront the scene before him.

Jiaojiao deserved a spanking, Shu Xiang was too fragile, what about Huaiming?

This time Gu Huaiming glared his eyes, but after the last incident, he had been reprimanded by Gu Jin and had toned down quite a bit.

Mainly because Huai’an had also talked to him.

He wouldn’t listen to others, but he could take Huai’an’s words to heart.

Yet he still said to Gu Jiaojiao, "If you can’t talk properly, then shut up. No one thinks you’re mute."

If Shu Xiang weren’t present, the old master would have kicked his eldest grandson to the ground.

But this was someone who had found a partner and was arranging a marriage, and he, as a grandfather, couldn’t fail to give his grandson face.

Alas, every family has its problems.

He really wanted to move out and not deal with this messed-up nonsense.

Pretending not to see Shu Xiang wiping her tears, he told Gu Huaiming, "If you want to have dinner together, call Huai’an. I have other things to attend to. You, Gu Jiaojiao, are not allowed to go anywhere. Go back to your room and do your homework!"

When the old master got serious, he was quite intimidating.

Even Shu Xiang dared not cry anymore, but her heart was still aching.

She didn’t think there was anything wrong with what she had just said.

The main issue was Gu Jiaojiao’s disdain for her.

Her mother’s concerns were justified.

The youngest aunt was young, far from marriage, and a family like the Gu family wouldn’t marry off a daughter early nor split the family for now.

So, after marrying Huaiming, if she had to face such a troublesome and unreasonable youngest aunt every day, what should she do?

She really wanted to ingratiate herself with her, but Gu Jiaojiao simply ignored her.

What’s so great about her?

Isn’t it just being born into the Gu family?

With her behavior, if she were born into a normal working-class family, or even in the countryside, she wouldn’t compare to her.

It’s just that she had a good grandfather.

Otherwise, what right would Gu Jiaojiao have to humiliate her here?

Gu Jiaojiao was about to explode with anger. Just a moment ago, everything was fine, and grandfather didn’t reject her from following them.

But Shu Xiang just had to come in and cause trouble.

It was so annoying.

She stamped her foot angrily, wanting to say something, but upon seeing her grandfather’s stern look, she held back and turned to run back to her room.

Old Master Gu turned and left.

Gu Huaiming sighed helplessly and said to Shu Xiang, "I told you, don’t take Jiaojiao seriously. She isn’t malicious and doesn’t mean any harm; she just can’t control her mouth. Just ignore her and it’ll be fine."

Shu Xiang immediately became angry.

"Not malicious? Why doesn’t she act like this towards Song Yunuan? Why only towards me?

Isn’t it just because she looks down on me?

Would she dare to speak like that to Song Yunuan?

Would she dare to say that Song Yunuan’s hairpin is tacky?

I really don’t want to deal with her, but she is your sister, how could I possibly not deal with her?

Was there something wrong with what I said just now? Look at the wallet in my hands, does it look cheap? It took my eldest sister-in-law over a week to embroider this.

What right does the Gu family have to treat other people’s kindness so poorly?"

Gu Huaiming felt a headache coming on.

Shu Xiang let out a cold laugh, wiped the tears from her face, and said, "You don’t have to look so troubled. Breaking up is for the best!"
