Gu Sheng hurried upstairs to change into clean clothes, tidied up his image briefly, and recalled the Song family in his mind. For a long time, he seemed to vaguely remember that when he was 4 or 5 years old, Grandpa Song came to his home several times. There was also a very cute little girl who came with him at that time. The two children were playing Very good, about the same age. Gu Sheng really couldn't remember the others, after all, nearly 15 years had passed.
After Gu Sheng came out of the dormitory building, he followed Lao Du to the school gate. There was no conversation all the way. The two did not communicate too much. After all, Gu Sheng was also a child of a rich family. He knew that the housekeepers in the family had good rules and would never do too much. He wanted to chat with the owner's guests, and Gu Sheng really had no interest in chatting now.
When he walked out of the school gate, Gu Sheng saw a BMW 760 parked at the door. When he walked to the front and back of the car, Lao Du opened the back door and invited Gu Sheng to enter the car. After Gu Sheng entered the car, he walked to the passenger seat, sat in and motioned to the driver to start the car.
The vehicle slowly drove away from the gate of Lin City University. Since university campuses are generally in the suburbs, the driver drove the vehicle directly onto the highway.
"Lao Du, where are we going?" Gu Sheng didn't know where the destination was, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Mr. Gu, we are going to the Song family's house. The Song family is from Chunshi, the provincial capital, so we go there on the expressway. You can take a nap and we'll be there in about an hour." Lao Du politely answered Gu Sheng. He said nothing more.
After hearing Lao Du's answer, Gu Sheng didn't ask any more questions. Looking at the BMW 760 in front of him, Gu Sheng silently assessed the strength of the Song family in his heart. The BMW 760 is already regarded as an absolute luxury car in the eyes of ordinary people, but if it is not considered a powerful model in the top family circle, after all, the most expensive BMW 7 Series is only more than 2 million, and it will not be fully launched. To 3 million, this is without any discount. For many big families, Rolls-Royce and Bentley are already standard equipment. What's more, some will use some limited-edition customized models to show their strength. So it can be seen from this car that the Song family should be a relatively well-off business group family, but in terms of strength and family ranking, it is not considered to be at the top. There are many rich people of this level in the province.
The vehicle drove for less than two hours and entered a villa community. There were four-story single-family villas inside. Seeing the scale of the community, Gu Sheng was even more sure of his judgment on the strength of the Song family.
"Mr. Gu, please get out of the car. We are here." After the car drove directly to the yard of a villa, Lao Du walked to the back door, opened the door for Gu Sheng and invited Gu Sheng to get out of the car.
"Thank you." After expressing his gratitude, Gu Sheng got out of the car and followed Lao Du into the villa.
"Mr. Gu, please sit on the sofa for a while. I'll tell Mr. Song that you are here." Lao Du invited Gu Sheng to sit on the sofa and said an explanation before leaving to call Mr. Song.
Gu Sheng looked at the decoration of the villa. The overall decoration style was Chinese-style. The house was all made of mahogany furniture. As soon as you entered the villa, you could feel the natural woody fragrance emitted by the mahogany furniture. At the same time, combined with the incense burned at home, it gave people a pleasant feeling. A quiet and comfortable feeling.
"Xiao Sheng, do you still remember Grandpa Song? Ahem..." While Gu Sheng was looking at the decoration of the house, the internal elevator of the villa slowly opened the door. Inside, a gray-haired old man was sitting in a wheelchair and was passed by Lao Du. Pushed out.
"Hello, Grandpa Song, please forgive me for not having a deep impression. I only remember that when I was 4 or 5 years old, Grandpa Song often visited my house. Is it you?" Gu Sheng stood up immediately after hearing Mr. Song's voice. He stood up, bowed and replied politely.
"Yes, your father and I collaborated on two projects at that time, and that's when we became friends. Hey, Jiang He is such a good person. I didn't expect that he would step in front of such a bad old man like me. In the past two years, My health is getting worse and worse. I haven't seen Jiang He for 3 years. I didn't expect that in the future...Xiao Sheng, please express my condolences. The deceased has passed away. Have your parents' funeral arrangements been taken care of? Are there any difficulties? If so, tell Grandpa Song." Elder Song's eyes were red as he spoke, his eyes full of reluctance and regret.
"Thank you, Grandpa Song. My parents' funeral arrangements have been taken care of. Don't worry. Thank you for still thinking about my parents. You are the only...the only...the only one who still thinks about them." No one thought of the desolate farewell ceremony. Coming to see his parents off for the last time, sadness flooded into Gu Sheng's heart, and his eyes turned red and tears flowed out.
"Okay, Xiao Sheng, the deceased has passed away. What you have to do is to get over the grief as soon as possible, work hard to make yourself stronger, and restore the glory of your Gu family. Grandpa Song invites you here today because there is something important. I need to tell you something." Mr. Song gently patted Gu Sheng's back. Because he was in a wheelchair, he could only reach the height of his back.
"Grandpa Song, you are my father's best friend. If you need anything from Xiao Sheng, I will tell you without hesitation." Gu Sheng didn't know what it was at this time, but he felt that since he was his father's best friend, he had an obligation. After all, if As long as his father is alive, Mr. Song will definitely help him if something happens. It's just that Gu Sheng doesn't know what he can do when he is a young boy and has lost all his family property.
"Oh, this is Xiao Sheng! He's grown up so much. He's such a handsome boy! Nothing's wrong with you, Grandpa Song. I just heard about your family and asked you to come and see you to comfort you. I asked if you have anything. Difficulty." Before Mr. Song could speak, a middle-aged woman dressed in a flashy dress interrupted their conversation and walked up to them with a smile on her face and said. The speaker was Mr. Song’s second daughter-in-law, Xu Mochou.
"Mochou, when do I have the right to speak to you here?" Mr. Song was obviously unhappy after hearing Xu Mochou's words.
"Dad, you can't be impulsive. The Gu family has..." Xu Mochou was about to refute what Mr. Song said when he was frightened by Mr. Song's look and did not dare to speak again.
Gu Sheng was confused as he listened to the conversation between the two. It seemed that Mr. Song wanted to say something, but this woman didn't want Mr. Song to continue talking because of her family's situation.
"Xiao Sheng, I'm sorry, this is my second daughter-in-law. She is becoming more and more domineering and has no rules. I came to you today to talk to you about marriage." Mr. Song did not continue to beat around the bush. Said it directly.
"Ah? Engagement? Whose engagement?" The word "engagement" completely confused Gu Sheng. He had just thought about various things that Mr. Song might say, but he never thought about the word "engagement".
"Yes, the engagement, your engagement! The engagement between you and my granddaughter Song Miaoke! Do you still remember the little girl who went to your house with me to play with you when you were a child?" Mr. Song answered Gu Sheng's affirmative tone. doubt.
"I have some impression, but I can't remember it at all. I remember that when I was a child, I had a little sister named Ke'er who played very well with me." Gu Sheng could only remember these. After all, it has been so many years, who can Can clearly remember a brief childhood playmate.
"Yes, it's Ke'er. She's my granddaughter. At that time, your parents and I had already made an appointment for you two little babies. This is the marriage contract. Look, it has my signature and your parents' signatures on it. There are your and Ke'er's fingerprints." After saying that, Mr. Song tremblingly took out a yellowed piece of paper from his arms.
Gu Sheng took the engagement contract and read it carefully. It was indeed as Mr. Song said. It was signed by his parents and had two small fingerprints. At this moment, Gu Sheng was not only shocked but also shocked. In addition to being shocked by the engagement contract, he was even more surprised. Even though his family has undergone such a big change, Mr. Song still wants his granddaughter to fulfill her engagement and marry him. Isn't he afraid that he will drag down the Song family? At this moment, Gu Sheng was even more convinced that Mr. Song was indeed his parents' absolute best friend. There was no interest in this friendship, but only the deep friendship between the two families.
"Grandpa Song, the marriage certificate is true, but the current situation of my family..." Gu Sheng was also confused at the moment, not knowing what to say, but he knew that the situation at home should not allow him to continue this engagement.
"I understand the situation in your family. You don't have to think about anything. Your engagement will not be interfered with by external factors. And although our Song family is not a top family, at least we have enough food and clothing. You and Ke'er will be married and your lives will be safe." You don't have to worry, Grandpa Song has the ability to make you live a happy life." Mr. Song did not give Gu Sheng a chance to continue, he directly interrupted Gu Sheng and firmly expressed his attitude towards the marriage contract.
Dong Dong Dong... Dong Dong Dong... Just as the two were talking, there was a knock on the door, and the housekeeper Lao Du walked towards the door.
"Mr. Song, the eldest young master of the Ma family is here." After seeing the visitor clearly, Lao Du asked the guest to come to Mr. Song later to report.
"What's he doing here? Mochou, have you contacted him? Let him in, don't offend him." Mr. Song looked at Xu Mochou and helplessly let the visitor in.
"Dad...I'm not doing this just for our Song family. Mr. Ma promised to give us all the projects of the Song family and their group! That's 500 million!" Xu Mochou said to Mr. Song anxiously.
"I don't care! It's your turn to decide how the group develops!" Mr. Song's face turned green with anger. Since his health was getting worse day by day, the second son's family became more and more excessive and stretched out their hands more and more. long.
"Mr. Song, what don't you care about? Why are you so grand? You must pay attention to your health." The person who came was Ma Feng, the eldest son of the Ma family in Chun City. After entering the house arrogantly, he looked at He looked at Gu Sheng sitting on the sofa and smiled contemptuously.
"What are you doing here? If it's not an urgent matter, let's talk about it another day. I have important guests here." Mr. Song looked at Ma Feng impatiently and said.
"Urgent...very urgent, Mr. Song, I came to you today with a 500 million cooperation contract to propose marriage. As long as you agree to marry Kerr, this 500 million contract will belong to your Song family. I believe you also know that with this 500 million contract, your Song family will become one of the first-class families in the province." Facing Mr. Song, the Ma family master did not show any respect or politeness. Although it was a marriage proposal, he did not show any respect. The high-spirited posture is like giving alms.
