When Gu Yufei thought about Huo Niannian's charming face and the way Gu Tingshen looked at her, she couldn't help but want to buy a bottle of sulfuric acid and pour it all over her.

Yin Jie thought for a moment, then shook her head: "Unless it's the last resort, we cannot use this move, it's too dangerous.

"But they've already accepted it. What should we do!?" Gu Yufei said anxiously.

"It's not like we can't leave after receiving the certificate. Otherwise, how do you think Mommy forced that woman to leave and live in the Gu family? Let me tell your father that you can't be impatient. Do you remember? "

With that said, Yin Jie patted her daughter's shoulder and passed through the porch, following behind Gu Tingshen and Huo Niannian, and headed towards the backyard.

Gu Tingshen's father, Gu Changqing, was in the backyard looking at the company's previous quarter's report.

Gu Tingshen let go of Huo Niannian's shoulder and changed it to holding her hand. He walked in front of his father and respectfully said: "Father, this is recitation."

Gu Changqing set his laptop on the side and looked at Huo Niannian.

Even though he was already over fifty, he still looked very young and very dignified. Huo Niannian had a rough idea of who the cold arrogance on Gu Tingshen's body had inherited from.

And facing such a stern and stern father-in-law, she, as a temporary daughter-in-law, was actually a little nervous. She felt that his eyes were even stronger than Gu Tingshen's, and could practically see through her soul.

As for the few thoughts in her mind, they seemed to have all been exposed.

"Hello, uncle." Huo Niannian greeted politely.

Regarding greetings, the two had already discussed it on their way back. Before the wedding ceremony, they would not change their words for the time being. This was also a process of adapting to their parents' wishes.

After all, they had not even met Huo Niannian, the floating daughter-in-law once before.

Gu Changqing slightly nodded his head, "Due to the pressure of this public debate, even though Tingshen and you have gotten married in a hurry, our Gu family will not be so hasty. Miss Huo can rest assured that the ceremony that we should have in the future will not be lacking."

Huo Niannian obediently said: "It's alright, I will listen to Uncle's arrangements."

Gu Changqing seemed to be satisfied with her attitude and revealed a smile. However, he quickly recovered his cool face and said to Gu Tingshen: "Have you seen this year's ranking for Imperial Group in the Asia region?"

"Yes, he's ranked second."

Just as Huo Niannian was sighing with emotion, she realized that Gu Tingshen was actually young and promising, and couldn't help but raise a big thumb in her heart. However, she heard Gu Changqing snort coldly: "Are you satisfied with being number two?"

Gu Tingshen lowered his head, "No."

However, Gu Changqing said in an even stricter tone, "This is the third year since you took over the company. In these three years, you have yet to reach first place, do you think that your results are worthy of being proud of?"

Gu Tingshen did not make a sound, and did not dare to say a single word.

"If you don't get first place next time, then you don't need to be the CEO and I will redistribute the inheritance right to you."

With that, Gu Changqing got up and walked into the house, towards the porch, and said to the butler Uncle Zhang: "Treat Young Mistress well."

"Yes, master." Butler respectfully bowed his head.

Huo Niannian's heart felt like she was riding a roller coaster. She had just helped Gu Tingshen by sweating and felt like she had been scolded. Now that she heard Gu Changqing calling her "Young Mistress", her heart felt more at ease.

Huo Niannian tugged on Gu Tingshen who was still standing at the same place, "Your father is so strict."

"He never liked me since he was young. Even if I got first place, he wouldn't praise me. I'm used to it." Gu Tingshen paused, "Let's go, let's meet grandfather upstairs."

Huo Niannian could not help but feel sympathy to Gu Tingshen.

One must know that the grandmother that adopted her was very tolerant of her. No matter how little Huo Niannian achieved, she would always be encouraged by her grandmother.

When she compared it with Gu Tingshen's childhood, Huo Niannian suddenly felt that she didn't seem to be in such a miserable state.

Thinking about it this way, he immediately forgave Gu Tingshen's cold and detached appearance, because that was the character flaw caused by his childhood shadow!

Huo Niannian followed Gu Tingshen to the study room on the second floor.

A white haired old man was writing a note, after hearing the sound, he raised his head and looked at Huo Niannian and Gu Tingshen.

"You're just reading it, right?"

The old man put down his brush and walked to Huo Niannian with a smile on his face. He looked at her carefully for a while and nodded, saying, "At least you have good taste."
