"He came back some time ago." Cheng Xue picked up the wine glass, "Meihua, I respect you."
"I respect you too." Li Meihua touched her glasses lightly, "After dinner, I will take you for a walk."
"It's what I asked for."
Li Meihua got up and went to the bathroom.
Cheng Xue asked the waiter to call Gu Tong over. Gu Tong was wearing a chef's uniform and a hat. Her face was greasy, but it did not affect her beauty at all. Her skin was delicate and pink, and she was tall. She looked like a beauty at first glance.
Cheng Xue couldn't help but stare at her a few more times, "Did you cook all these dishes?"
Gu Tong nodded, "Yes, madam, I did it."
Cheng Xue praised, "Well done."
"Thank you, madam, for the compliment. Well, if you need anything, just tell me. I'll go ahead." Gu Tong hurried back to the kitchen.
This was the first time Cheng Xue met Gu Tong. Apart from her good looks and good cooking, she really couldn't find any other advantages. She didn't know how Ye Sichen fell in love with her and why she had to marry her.
After dinner, Cheng Xue paid the bill and walked down to the lobby with Yang Meihua.
Xia Zixuan stood at the door to answer the phone. She actually waited here on purpose. If she wanted Gu Yahui to marry into the Ye family, she had to win over Cheng Xue. She put down her phone and smiled at them, "Mrs. Chang, have you finished eating? When were you thinking about it? I’ll ask you to go shopping when I have time.”
Li Meihua said politely, "I have friends here today, let's wait another day."
Cheng Xue said, "It doesn't matter. How about we come together."
Li Meihua felt it was inappropriate, but before she could say anything, Xia Zixuan said, "Okay, as long as Madam doesn't think I'm in the way."
Cheng Xue said politely, "There are many people busy there."
She also wanted to talk to Xia Zixuan so that Gu Tong could leave Ye Sichen. She already had a candidate for Ye Sichen's wife, and the most important thing now was to drive Gu Tong away.
Xia Zixuan felt that things went smoothly and it was a bit unreal. She had just come into contact with Cheng Xue and even went to the mall together! Stretching out a hand towards Cheng Xue, "Hello, my name is Xia Zixuan."
Cheng Xue shook her hand politely, "My name is Cheng Xue."
"Nice to meet you." Xia Zixuan was indeed very happy. As long as she became friends with Cheng Xue, Gu Yahui's chances of marrying into the Ye family would be much greater.
The three of them went to International Department Store together.
Xia Zixuan deliberately found a topic, "Mrs. Chang, your Nanchuan family is quite old. Are you married yet?"
Li Nanchuan is Li Meihua's nephew. Since he had no mother since he was a child, Li Meihua takes good care of him and has a good relationship with him. "Not yet."
Xia Zixuan said, "Before, our Lao Gu was thinking of marrying the Li family and betrothing our second daughter, Gu Tong, to Nanchuan. However, Chairman Li did not agree."
"Second Miss?" Li Meihua knew that the Gu family had an illegitimate daughter. Hum, although Li Nanchuan had never had a mother since he was a child, he was still an authentic eldest son of the Li family. How could he marry an illegitimate daughter who was fostered outside? "Gu Tong? This The name sounds familiar?"
Xia Zixuan said, "She is now the chef of Wilson Hotel."
"Chef?" Li Meihua was even more disdainful, "How could a girl become a chef? Your family doesn't care about her? Even though she's not your biological child, you can't let her do such a menial job, right?"
Disgust and dissatisfaction were evident.
Xia Zixuan looked aggrieved, "Mrs. Chang, you have wronged me. Gu Tong has been unruly and willful since she was a child, disobeying discipline, and fights with our Yaya every day. We have no choice but to foster her outside. Who knows what she is doing?" She didn't study well at all. Alas, I couldn't help it. I had already imagined for her that she should study design and become a designer or something, but she couldn't listen. She refused to go to school before finishing high school. I was fighting with people at school every day. I didn’t know how many times I was asked to be a parent. She said she didn’t want to go to college and wanted to learn cooking at Nanxiang Technical School. I had no choice but to let her go and let her go to technical school. Got this job.”
"Is that so?" Li Meihua looked disdainful. Such a girl was not worthy of their Nanchuan family.
Xia Zixuan's words were just a roundabout way of telling Cheng Xue, "However, your Nanchuan seems to have a good relationship with Gu Tong. I heard they met in a bar."
Li Meihua frowned, "We met in a bar?"
Xia Zixuan sighed, "That's why our old man Gu wanted to marry her to Nanchuan, but Chairman Li didn't like it."
Li Meihua asked again, "Gu Tong? I seem to have an impression. There was a big fuss some time ago. I heard that this Gu Tong slept with your Yaya's fiancé not long ago?"
Xia Zixuan nodded, "Well, family scandals should not be made public, but it happened that the media reporters caught the eye that morning. Gu Tong drank too much and went to the wrong room. Si Chen was not to blame for this. Later Yaya also forgave Si Chen. Si Chen originally Even Yaya's fiancé, now that things are like this, I feel helpless. I just hope that Gu Tong can let go and let Si Chen and Yaya get back together. "
Li Meihua suddenly thought of something, Si Chen? Ye Sichen! Suddenly he glanced at Cheng Xue.
Cheng Xue listened to Xia Zixuan's words. She was not stupid. She knew very well why Gu Tong slept with Ye Sichen in the first place. She also knew very well why the Gu family suddenly regretted and wanted to marry Ye Sichen. Ye Sichen had little identity. Someone knew, Cheng Xue smiled, "It's just the same name."
Li Meihua also smiled, maybe it was just the same name, maybe it was Ye Sichen who was deliberately testing Gu Yahui, "I heard that the Ye Sichen who is engaged to your family is a poor boy. Don't your family dislike it?"
Xia Zixuan looked righteous and awe-inspiring, "This marriage was arranged by Yaya's grandfather. We should keep our words and not break our promises. Even if Ye Sichen is a beggar, we should fulfill the engagement. Some time ago, he was just Gu Tong fixed it, so people misunderstood that we dislike the poor and love the rich. We, Lao Gu, have already said that as long as they get married, we will give them a villa, and we will also train Ye Sichen well so that he and Yaya can live a good life. , It’s a pity that Gu Tong won’t let go, and there’s really nothing we can do.”
Li Meihua seemed to suddenly realize again, "So, you are thinking of betrothing Gu Tong to our Nanchuan family so that Nanchuan can take over? And Gu Yahui can legitimately be with Ye Sichen?"
The question is, is the Gu family such a person? Not just family-oriented, which parent in the world would do this? Let his biological daughter marry a pauper, and let his stepdaughter whom he dislikes the most marry a rich man?
Xia Zixuan hurriedly explained, "That's not the case. It's because Gu Tong didn't want to be with Ye Sichen. Look at my memory. She went on a blind date with Nanchuan first. She also said that she liked Nanchuan and asked us to help her. Otherwise, we How could she be connected with Nanchuan?"
Li Meihua frowned, "Is there still such a thing?"
