Chapter 1029: You And I Had No Fate. Everything Happened Because I Put In A Lot Of Money

Editor: Atlas Studios

Gu Si actually didn’t know much about Gu Mang.

When they were young, people compared Gu Yin with Gu Mang.

They even advised Gu Zhen and Bai Xu not to waste money to find a school for Gu Mang, and to train Gu Yin with the money.

At that time, Gu Si was very angry and scolded the man with the rotten mouth.

Since then, Gu Si’s reputation had declined. Just like Gu Mang, he became a bad role model for everyone in their county and at school.

Despite this, Gu Si would still lash out at whoever dared to insult Gu Mang.

Later, Gu Mang gave him a "Cultivation Guide", but it could not save him. He said the same sentence every time.

"You can insult me, but not my sister."

Gu Si only found out about some of Gu Mang’s identity when she taught him how to use the computer. That was when he realized that Gu Mang had been pretending all the time.

But Gu Si felt that those were not all.

So at this moment, when he heard Lu Chengzhou ask Gu Mang about her other disguises, he listened eagerly in the front seat.

Unexpectedly, Gu Mang asked about Lu Chengzhou’s properties again.

Gu Si was even more interested now.

He was originally watching the leaked footage of Gu Mang’s marriage on Weibo, but now his attention was on what was going on behind him.

Lu Qi glanced at Gu Si who was being very nosy and the corner of his lips twitched.

Lu Chengzhou raised his sharp brows slightly. "I don’t have any more properties under my name."

Gu Mang just asked casually. She didn’t care much about the properties under his name, so she just gave an ’oh’ in response.

"Don’t believe me?" Lu Chengzhou looked at her and asked in a warm and gentle voice.

Gu Mang was still replying to messages on her phone. She answered, "I do."

"Alright." Lu Chengzhou smiled and asked, "What about Madam?"

Gu Mang’s voice was calm. "I don’t consider them disguises, I just work for others to make money."

Her attitude made her sound like an emotionless money-making machine.

Lu Chengzhou nodded and did not ask any further questions. Instead, he changed the subject, "Before, when Granny’s illness relapsed, you were willing to talk to me after I gave you a box of chocolates. Were you trying to play cat and mouse with me or...?"

Lan Sha stared at him.

Gu Si was silent.

"Ah." Gu Mang uttered. "Those were too expensive. I’ve only seen them but never tried them before."

Gu Si said nothing in response.

"Got it." Lu Chengzhou crossed his legs and leaned back slightly. He casually put his arms on the back of her sofa and concluded, "You and I had no fate. Everything happened only because I put in a lot of money."

The movements of Gu Mang’s typing fingers stopped and she looked at him from the corner of her eyes silently.

Lan Sha recalled the few antique gifts that Lu Chengzhou had given him and he said nothing for the first time.

Gu Si recalled that he was only eight years old and yet he had thousands of millions of dollars in his bank account and he kept quiet too.

"Then what if I go broke in the future?" Lu Chengzhou asked. He sounded rather serious.

Gu Mang retracted her gaze and continued to reply to the messages. She answered calmly. "Be a sugar baby, I guess."

Everyone was speechless.

Lu Chengzhou answered seriously. "Alright, Sister Mang."

Gu Mang continued staring.

At this moment, Gu Mang did not understand what Lu Chengzhou meant when he said that he might become broke in the future. Until that night...

...

At the international airport of Chunning City.

Lu Yī came early to meet them.

When they all arrived at Chunning City, a fleet of black cars kept a low profile and drove towards Changning County.

The weather was turning warm and there were quite a lot of people on the streets in the county.

No matter how low profile Lu Chengzhou tried to arrange for the cars to be, it was still quite a spectacle.

It made passersby stay out of the way and there was a lot of discussion.

In the era of big data, news spread quickly across the internet.

Especially this morning there was an uproar on the Internet.

Someone realized that the two big bosses of yesterday’s wedding were the main leads of the marriage proposal that caused a sensation in City 49 some time ago.

Most importantly...

It was the first time they saw a marriage proposal on the big screens across the whole city!

It was also the first time they saw a response on the big screens across the whole city!

Obviously, the girl who responded should be an expert in computing as she hacked into all the monitors!

The trending tab on Weibo was removed as soon as it took off, but there were too many people looking into the gossip online. Removing the trending topics was not effective.

No one dared to talk about it too openly online.

But in private, they talked about this unprecedented and grand wedding with the people all around them.

The thing about the bridesmaid receiving the real estate certificates in the capital was also spread out.

Everyone’s reactions were exactly the same. After sighs and ’what the f*cks’, tears of envy were shed.

Gu Mang did not pay attention to these things.

She also had no idea that Lu Chengzhou was written all over in the comments section of her Weibo post.

Her follower count went straight up to 30 million+ overnight.

As for Changning County, everyone knew who had returned when they saw that the fleet of cars had stopped outside the entrance of the Gu family’s little western-style house.

Today was the day for the bride to return home after her wedding.

Those who had spoken badly about Gu Mang before, all hid in fear at home and did not dare to come out. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

After Old Master Bai, Bai Zhang and their family attended the wedding yesterday, they came here and they stayed in the little western-style house.

As they did not want Gu Mang to face an empty house on the day that the bride was supposed to return home, the family came early so they could pretend to represent her family.

Gu Mang, Lu Chengzhou and the others got out of the car and they greeted Old Master Bai.

"Grandpa, Uncle, Aunt."

After a simple greeting, they did not stay around for any longer.

They took the prayer items and walked towards the cemetery.

Initially, the names engraved on the tombstone were Gu Ping, Lei Min.

Lu Chengzhou and Gu Zhen added another tablet beside it. Gu Zhen, Bai Xu.

It was a hidden name for over ten years.

In order to bring down Base 102, the two had a complete makeover and these were the names that they could not even reveal when they were buried.

They could finally see the sun again.

When Old Master Bai saw the tombstone, his hand which was holding onto the walking stick trembled, and his eyes were red.

Gu Zhen and Bai Xu were just a little over 40.

Gu Mang, Lu Chengzhou, Gu Si and the other juniors in the familiar kowtowed thrice towards the tombstone.

When Gu Mang stood up, she prepared to pull the weeds around the grave.

Lu Chengzhou held her hand and squeezed her fingertips, then he whispered, "I’ll do it."

Gu Mang looked at his dark eyes and hummed in response.

In the end, Lu Chengzhou and Gu Si cleared the weeds.

When they were clean, Lu Chengzhou stood right in front of the tombstone and bowed. "Hello, Mom and Dad. I am Lu Chengzhou, the son-in-law you never had a chance to meet. Please rest assured knowing I am by her side. I will definitely take good care of her, love her, and cherish her for the rest of my life."

The man’s voice was respectful and solemn and his words were extremely clear in the breeze in the fields.

Gu Mang and his fingers interlocked.

Lan Sha glanced at Lu Chengzhou and there was relief in his eyes. Then, he returned his gaze to the tombstone of Gu Zhen and Bai Xu, and he just stared at it like that.

After they had paid their respects to Gu Zhen and Bai Xu, they all walked back along the road to the Gu Residence.

Old Master Bai said, "Later, your uncle and I will return to Jijing Island with Gu Si."

After making a detour around the capital, they went straight to the airport in Chunning City.
