However, at this moment, Gu Rou didn’t know what kind of relationship Helian Weiwei and Ajiu had.
Just by listening to Helian Weiwei’s words, Gu Rou thought that this woman with a high status was speaking up for her. Immediately, her eyebrows and eyes fluttered with joy. As she looked toward Helian Weiwei, the corners of her mouth curved into a smile. “Fortunately you have faith in me.”
Old Master Gu also thought that Helian Weiwei’s words were to help his granddaughter out of her predicament.
He immediately leaned on the dragon-headed walking stick in his hand and walked up. He said to baili jiajue, “Chief Jue, what a coincidence, we meet again.”
Baili Jiajue did not speak. He was just like a polite noble, standing there with an indifferent expression.
Old Master Gu continued to say, “It’s still chief jue and Madam who understand reason. The children are the most clear about matters between children. Since everyone is here, we should not let the misunderstanding create an estrangement. I brought a bottle of red wine that has been treasured for a hundred years. Today, we will hold a banquet. Let’s have a drink with Chief Bai and also thank Madam for speaking a fair word for my granddaughter.”
“Speak a fair word for your granddaughter?” When Baili Jiajue heard this, he couldn’t help but tilt his head and laugh. His silver hair fell to the side along with his movements, only leaving behind a mischievous smile on his lips. “I think my madam does not have that kind of intention at all.”
Helian Weiwei also laughed. Her clear eyes swept in Gu Rou’s direction, and only then did she say to old man jiang, “This old man, the misunderstanding that I spoke of is not the misunderstanding that your granddaughter spoke of. You guys are really thinking too much.”
Hearing this, Gu Rou’s face instantly stiffened. That originally raised pitiful smile awkwardly stopped on her face.
She didn’t think that this kind of situation would be the result of her over-consciousness.
No matter what, she was still the daughter of the Gu Family.
Knowing that her two sons had misunderstood her, shouldn’t Helian Weiwei speak up for her?
Why did it feel like the other party’s meaning was that she was trying to climb up the social ladder.
Gu Rou bit her lip tightly as really didn’t know how to smooth things over for herself. She couldn’t help but look towards her grandfather.
Old Master Gu also had a feeling of being hit in the head by someone. He didn’t expect that he would feel so embarrassed at such an old age. “No matter what, I am still grateful that you have helped our child get out of trouble.”
He thought that everyone would just laugh once he said that.
After all, it was all in the business world.
Even if the Gu Family really couldn’t compare to the Jue Wei Group, this matter should be resolved at this point.
But what he didn’t expect was that Helian Weiwei actually didn’t have any intention of giving him a way out. On the contrary, after hearing his words, Helian Weiwei smiled very coldly. “Old Master Gu, after I’ve delivered the present in my hands, we’ll talk about this misunderstanding. We’ll see whose child is innocent, because we really should have a good chat about things related to family education.”
Speaking up to this point, she paused and looked at that tall youth with a faint smile, to whom she handed over an item. “I heard that birthday presents are popular nowadays. Since Bai Zhun likes it, I also have a contract here. It’s signed with the Jue Wei Group, 10% profit purchase. Bai Zhun, I’ll give it to you. Happy Birthday.”
It was also a contract, but the Jue Wei group’s contract was a 10% profit purchase. What did it mean? Everyone present was clear about its meaning.
This was simply something that superseded the Gu Family.
However, Bai Zhun didn’t accept it. Even his expression didn’t change, because his gaze was always on Ajiu.
Helian Weiwei smiled when she saw the situation. Therefore, she turned her head and told Old Master Bai, “Old Chief, your grandson really won’t disappoint. However, this first birthday gift must be given, because this gift is to thank Bai Zhun for giving Ajiu the Purple Jade Buddha’s head that he painstakingly obtained. Otherwise, we won’t be able to come at this time.”
Purple Jade Buddha Head? Old Master Bai still didn’t know about this matter, but he was keenly aware that something was wrong with those words.
“Bai Zhun gave Ajiu something, why do you have to thank him?” Old Master Bai turned his face to the side and pretended to be serious as he inquired Helian Weiwei, “Girl, what exactly is going on?”
Speaking of which, Old Master Bai and Helian Weiwei had known each other before.
However, it was not a direct relationship between superior and subordinate, but when Old Master Bai was at the border.
Young Master Tang dispatched the mysterious organization over to provide support.
From that moment on, Old Master Bai had the idea of taking Helian Weiwei as his adopted daughter.
Unfortunately, the girl ran away quickly. When he contacted her again, she said that the people at home were all hostile and it was not convenient for her to go to the Bai Family.
Since she was now here, they started discussing something strange.
“It’s nothing.”Helian Weiwei smiled lightly. “Because Ajiu is the person I mentioned to you before.”
“What do you mean?”
Even Old Master Bai, who had experienced a lot in his life, began to lose his composure. His eyes swayed as he looked at Ajiu, who was standing under the light with a silly and cute face. This child w-was actually..
Helian Weiwei curled her lips. Her voice was not loud, but every word was clear. “That’s right. She is my daughter.”
These words were like a clap of thunder that rang out from the sky, which crashed onto Old Master Bai’s head.
Bang!
The contract in Gu Rou’s hand dropped. Her face seemed to have been ruthlessly slapped by someone, and she could not help but paling in fright.
Everyone present couldn’t help but make different remarks after hearing this news.
Xiao Lin and Master Li stood not far away. As they stared blankly at Ajiu, disbelief was written all over their faces.
“Ajiu is Helian Weiwei’s daughter?”
“Then, isn’t she the legendary little princess of the Jue Wei Group?”
“You mean the one who has never revealed herself?”
“How could it be her?”
Gu Rou couldn’t believe her ears at all.
How did that child who only knew how to eat and drink become the little princess of the Jue Wei Corporation?
She had clearly descended from the mountain. Therefore, she should be an orphan who couldn’t be more thrifty when it came to spending money!
She had already heard about Ajiu’s situation from her grandfather. It was Old Master Bai who had personally told her that they had brought Ajiu back from a temple in a remote mountain area.
That was not a very popular temple. If it were not for the fact that the abbot was an expert in Daoism, Bai Zhun would have never been sent there to be enlightened.
No one would know about such a remote place.
Moreover, Grandpa Bai had also said that Ajiu had already stayed in the temple when she was an infant.
Although Ajiu had always said that she would look for her family when she grew up, no one would take her words seriously.
In fact, nobody would take a child’s words seriously.
A truly wealthy family would not have sent their child to a temple at such a young age.
Thus, Gu Rou was certain that even if Ajiu had a family, it would only be those poor farmers who simply abandoned their children because they could not afford to raise them properly.
