C10 Curse
"Zhancheng, if it's for the dinner of Shangguan family, just stay here. I'm very busy right now. " As soon as the call connected, Gu Zhanbei's cold voice entered Gu Zhancheng's ears. Gu Zhancheng couldn't help but shiver. He suddenly didn't know what to say. He had just thought of an excuse, but he couldn't remember a single word.
"Ah, Big Brother, what banquet? It's not that. I heard from Second Sister that you came back today. Didn't she miss you? So I called to greet her. Big Brother, you are still busy, right? Then you are busy. I won't disturb you any longer." Gu Zhancheng finished speaking like a machine gun and immediately hung up the phone. God knows if he would be frozen if he listened to Gu Zhanbei's words any longer.
Seeing the busy phone call, Gu Zhanbei smiled lightly. If it wasn't for his sister Gu Zixuan mentioning the Shangguan family dinner when the meeting ended, she would probably have been duped by his Ghost Dao brother to attend.
When the Shangguan family was mentioned, Gu Zhanbei remembered the uproar caused by his cancellation of the engagement ten years ago.
If it wasn't for that damn woman delaying his date with Shangguan Ruxue, perhaps he would have married Shangguan Ruxue long ago without feeling anything about her!
Although Gu Zhanbei didn't believe in that damned curse, ever since he had sex with that damned woman for one night, he had no feelings for other women. In addition to Shangguan Ruxue's tight coercion towards marriage, Gu Zhanbei finally proposed to cancel the engagement. Even if the Shangguan family wanted to publicize his true identity, they still had to cancel the engagement. However, other than Gu Zhanbei, no one knew the real purpose of cancelling the engagement.
Later on, they heard that Shangguan Ruxue actually slit her wrist and committed suicide, but Gu Zhanbei did not expect it. A woman who had nothing to do with him, Gu Zhanbei did not bother to pay attention to her. However, what gave Gu Zhanbei a headache was that he did not know what method the Shangguan family had used. They actually persuaded his mother to force him to marry Shangguan Ruxue. Helpless, Gu Zhanbei had no choice but to move the headquarters of the LG Group to the United States. From then on, the United States handled all matters of the group except for the annual board meeting. He had almost never returned to S City.
The Gu family held a supreme position in the business world. It was said that a long time ago... A curse had been placed on him, and that was the first virgin that the man of the Gu family had encountered. It was their fate. If someone turned this girl into a woman but did not marry her... If they married another woman, then this man would be punished by the heavens. The lightest is disability, the worst is death.
Of course, this technology development was extremely developed in the 21st century, so people naturally wouldn't believe any rumors or curses that had been spread for a long time. Fifteen years ago, Gu Zhanbei, Second Uncle, Gu Haoyuan was the second young master of the Gu family from the previous generation. They threw the curses to the back of their heads.
That year, after Gu Haoyuan used flowery words to trick a female university student into bed, he married a young lady from the government. In the end, on the day of his marriage, Gu Haoyuan's legs mysteriously lost their intuition. He became disabled. Because his wife couldn't bear such a blow, she proposed a divorce on the third day of the marriage.
It was also because of this that even though the Gu family was wealthy, Gu Haoyuan was still single and had never gotten married.
Even Gu Zhancheng, who had been taught a lesson by Mrs. Gu since he was young, had always only played with prostitutes and never touched little girls.
Although Gu Zhanbei had never believed in this kind of curse, because he had practiced a strict style since he was young, there were no problems with it. Of course, other than that damn woman.
As for Shangguan Ruxue, it was precisely because she unintentionally knew that the Gu family had this kind of curse that she told Mrs. Gu that she and Gu Zhanbei already had a physical relationship a long time ago. With this, she held Mrs. Gu hostage for her own use.
Mrs. Gu had always been thinking about these three children of hers, especially Gu Zhanbei. He had been raised as the successor of the Gu family since he was young. He could not afford to lose anything. Now she knew that Gu Zhanbei had taken over Shangguan Ruxue's body, but Gu Zhanbei insisted on cancelling the engagement. This made Mrs. Gu anxious, and her eyebrows were burning. She followed the Shangguan family to matchmake Gu Zhanbei and Shangguan Ruxue's marriage.
Gu Zhanbei had always been busy with the development of the company. He saw that Mrs. Gu was forcing the marriage. It was just that the old man was anxious to have a grandchild. Of course, he did not know that Shangguan Ruxue used such a method to win over his mother. Therefore, during the half month that he came back to hold the board of directors, it became the peak period of all kinds of banquets held by the Gu family and Shangguan family. Almost every other day, there would be all kinds of feasts and banquets. The banquets were held by both families.
"President, special assistant Lee is back." The female assistant's voice came from the phone.
"Let him in." Gu Zhanbei replied and continued to study the report in his hand.
"President," Lee Si pushed the door open and entered. He nodded slightly at Gu Zhanbei, then sat down on the chair opposite Gu Zhanbei. "Mangaka Li Chu secretly returned to S City." He did not mind Gu Zhanbei not looking at him. Lee Si continued to report his recent gains.
"Li Chu?" Gu Zhanbei finally put down the report in his hand and looked up at the special assistant in front of him.
"En, this is a report from the industry." Lee Si nodded and continued, "The Perfect World operation program has already been designed. Now, the only thing missing is the specific character image design."
"No bidding?" Gu Zhanbei looked at his special assistant with interest. Lee Si had followed him for so many years. If he did not have the courage and decision-making ability, he would not have occupied Gu Zhanbei's assistant position for so many years.
"President, I think Li Chu's design and Perfect World will be a perfect combination." Lee Si smiled. He understood that Gu Zhanbei already knew that he had another plan.
"Bring her design over for me to see." Gu Zhanbei would not doubt Lee Si's ability and vision, but the Perfect World was the company's congratulatory gift for the century. Investment It's done! A huge amount of manpower and financial resources, so there must be no mishaps.
When the Li Chu manga appeared in front of Gu Zhanbei, his eyes lit up. They were all ordinary cartoon characters, but after being handled by Li Chu, they would become extremely likeable.
Without a doubt, the designer of the character in Perfect World was designated as mangaka Li Chu. However, whether Li Chu would agree or not, Gu Zhanbei would not bother. These were things that Lee Si was in charge of, so he did not need to worry about them.
When Lyi Xiaoxiao saw the invitation letter from the LG Group in his email, a cunning smile appeared on his tender face.
"The fish has finally bitten the hook."
