Chapter 2292: Chapter 2094: Gu Linxi vs. Cui Jiangjing
"He left, so there’s no chance to give this to you. I’m here today to pass this on to you, Old Madam, wishing you a long life."
After she finished speaking, she left the item behind, turned around, and left decisively.
"Mom, I’ll go see." Gu Qinian wanted to discuss the Jikang Group project with her, hurriedly spoke to the Old Madam, and chased after her.
Only the Gu Family members were left there.
Gu Mengru, oblivious to the tense atmosphere, urged the Old Madam to open it, "Grandma, see what Cousin gave you."
"Yeah, open it, let’s see."
"That annoying girl had to bring up Big Brother at this moment, she’s so unlucky."
Nobody believed Gu Linxi would bring an expensive gift, but when the Old Madam opened the box and took out the warm white lamb-colored Buddha pendant, everyone fell silent.
Everyone knows that gold has a price but jade is priceless, and the value of good jade is evident. The pendant’s material and craftsmanship were so exquisite that no flaws could be found.
Compared to the pendant, the agate bracelet Gu Ran just gave looked petty.
The Gu Family members were all stunned, and Gu Chunnai couldn’t help but exclaim, "...This must be worth at least a few million, where did that annoying girl get so much money?"
Yet, tongue-tied, she involuntarily said, "Big Brother was the most filial, even after death, he gives Mom ’a house’ for her birthday."
The Old Madam said, "Can’t you keep your mouth shut?"
Meanwhile, holding the pendant, she returned it with a complex feeling. Even though she didn’t want to wear it, she couldn’t bring herself to reject such an expensive item.
Only Gu Ran and Mrs. Gu were incredibly embarrassed, unable to say a single word.
Especially Gu Ran, who clenched her teeth. In her mind, she planned to present herself well when Cui Jiangjing arrives and win her over, while cautiously accompanying and flattering the Old Madam with a smile.
...
Outside, Gu Linxi had already exited the main gate.
Gu Qinian caught up.
"Xixi."
She paused, holding her car keys, looked at Gu Qinian, their eyes met, and Gu Qinian only saw her eyes cold as heck, as if looking at a stranger. Feeling embarrassed, he stopped and rubbed his nose, saying, "You’re here, stay for a meal before leaving."
Gu Linxi rotated the car keys in her hand, bluntly said, "If Mr. Gu chased me out to say something, just say it, I’m in a rush."
Gu Qinian, who had been proud for over ten years, didn’t expect to be defeated once more by this little niece. He barely maintained some dignity on the surface, straightforwardly said, "Can Jianda collaborate with Gu Real Estate on the Jikang project?"
"How do we collaborate?" She knew Gu Qinian came for the Jikang project, but didn’t expect him to propose collaboration.
"It’s simple, Jianda hands over the project to Gu Real Estate to execute, and Gu Real Estate gives Jianda three percent of the profits as payment. What do you think?"
Gu Linxi looked deeply at him, pursed her pink lips, and in front of Gu Qinian, bluntly criticized, "Ten years have passed, and Mr. Gu’s shamelessness has grown thicker and thicker! Thick to the point I’m stunned! The Jikang Group project can easily yield profits in billions, and you’re saying to hand it over to you, and you give me three percent? Are you trying to fob off a beggar?"
But did he figure out, between the two of them, who really is the beggar here!
Gu Qinian’s face turned red with anger, annoyed, "Jianda is such a small company, it simply can’t handle Jikang’s large project. We’re all family, you’d rather give outsiders benefits than earn money with family?"
