"In my opinion, this engagement is completely unnecessary.”
Gu Yan said lightly.
"Xiaoyan, the engagement was set by our ancestors. We can't talk about our ancestors like that!”
Gu Wanshan's tone became a little stern.
Whatever Gu Yan did, he would tolerate and go along with it.
However, this was the only thing he could not do.
However…
Gu Yan smiled. He picked up his glass of red wine and stood up." I'm talking about our ancestor."”
The man no longer sat on the chair, but began to walk slowly.
He passed by everyone, his deep and magnetic voice echoing in the empty hall.
"In this world, there is only one way to stay stable for a long time, and that is to become stronger.”
"Since you can take the initiative to control everything and control your own destiny, why should you hand your destiny to others and leave it to fate?”
"In the end, this engagement was a method that our ancestor came up with to allow our two families to survive for a long time.”
"Am I right?"
He asked back.
Everyone present was rendered speechless.
Even though Gu Yan was talking about the ancestor, the elders present had no reason to refute him.
He was right!
The essence of the engagement was not just for marriage, but to make the friendship between the two families more stable. From then on, they would join hands and work hard to survive together!
It was also increasing the pressure on the other competitors!
"But this is the stupidest way."
Gu Yan smiled.
His smile was handsome and extraordinary, like a spring breeze.
His gaze swept past every elder and then he spoke calmly.
"The waters of Shanghai run deeper than you can imagine. Even if the market value of the two companies is now close to 100 billion, in the eyes of a true expert, they are no different from ants.”
"The two families can develop steadily not because we are strong enough, but because the true experts look down on us!”
"Everyone, think about it."
"If one day, Shanghai is in turmoil, or if we provoke some hidden big shot, will they let us off just because of a small engagement?”
"I won't!"
"In fact, if our strength is not strong enough, the engagement will become a disaster, and at the same time, it will bring disaster to both families!”
" An engagement is just a reason for not daring to take a risk and face reality. It is just a reason for us to be stuck in our own place and deceive ourselves!”
" Just like our ancestor, you seek stability and don't want to destroy the foundation that you've built over the past decades. But you've never thought about what to do if a catastrophe befalls you one day.”
"I never think about the future. I only comfort myself. If this engagement is not child's play, what is it?”
"And I, Gu Yan, am different from you.”
Gu Yan smiled and extended his hand to Ye Liuli.
The latter immediately understood. She quickly ran to the sofa and picked up the labor contract that she had just signed. Then, she took out another piece of paper and handed it to Gu Yan!
Soon after.
Under the shocked gazes of Su Qingyue and the elders, he placed the piece of paper in front of Gu Wanshan.
"This is a gambling agreement."
"From today onwards, the engagement will be temporarily canceled. If I can double the net assets of the Gu Corporation to 80 billion in a week, I will take over the Gu Corporation in advance and cancel the engagement permanently!”
"On the contrary, if I don't do it, the engagement will be carried out as usual.”
"Ms. Smith, can I?"
Gu Yan said.
He glanced at Su Qingyue.
The tears in Su Qingyue's beautiful eyes were slowly evaporated by the air. She looked at the handsome man standing not far away from her, and her heart was filled with disbelief!
She even suspected that this was the same submissive Gu Yan who listened to the family and had never experienced anything in the world, the mother's boy!
What he said and did had exceeded everyone's expectations.
Crazy, this was too crazy!
He wanted to double the assets of the corporation within a week!
It was simply a fantasy! It was impossible to accomplish!
But…
However, Su Qingyue smiled. Her smile was as beautiful as the blooming of a hundred flowers, and an emotion that had never appeared before flashed across her beautiful eyes.
She liked this kind of madness and unrealistic imagination!
It was more interesting than the cold engagement and the lack of warmth!
"Alright."
She agreed without hesitation.
"Nonsense, nonsense! This is simply nonsense!"
Gu Wanshan stood up and looked straight at Gu Yan. He said seriously,"Xiaoyan, what's wrong with you today?”
"The Gu Corporation will be yours sooner or later, but not now! I…"
He hadn't finished his sentence.
Gu Yan raised his hand and interrupted him." Dad, I know what you mean."”
His tone was calm.
Gu Wanshan's meaning was very simple. He thought he was crazy.
It was normal.
"You're only twenty years old after all. How can you do that? Don't you just want to cancel the engagement? Alright, I, Gu Wanshan, agree. But Xiaoyan, this is really not a small matter!”
" Xiaoyan, we need to calm down. We can discuss the engagement again, but your bet agreement is too…" Su De frowned and shook his head.
Dong dong dong.
However, at this moment.
Someone knocked on the door and the conversation in the living room was interrupted. It was instantly silent for half a second.
"Who's here?" Gu Wanshan looked at Mrs. Gu and asked in a deep voice.
He had clearly instructed that without his permission, unrelated people were not allowed to enter his courtyard, let alone come to his door.
"I told the servants, this…"
Mrs. Gu was also quite conflicted. She did not know what was going on.
Among the people present.
Only Gu Yan was not surprised.
The plan went smoothly according to his plan.
The person who knocked on the door was not someone else.
Instead, it was the key to opening the door to the top of society and stepping onto the path of a true behind-the-scenes big boss.
Someone knocked on the door.
He had to open it.
Gu Wanshan could only stuff the ridiculous gambling agreement under the tablecloth. Then, he waved his hand and gave the servant a look.
The servant understood and went forward to open the door.
Soon after.
A middle-aged man in a black suit walked in with a smile on his face.
At this moment.
Except for Gu Yan and Ye Liuli.
Everyone was silent!
"Yang Xuming? President Yang?" Gu Wanshan was shocked, but he also said in a deep voice,"Mr. Yang, as you can see, both the Grays and the Smiths are here.”
"The matter we want to discuss is very important. I don't know how you came here or what your purpose is.”
"But I hope you can give me a reason.”
To be honest.
If he was an ordinary billionaire, Gu Wanshan would have kicked him out long ago.
But Yang Xuming was different.
His value far exceeded that of a billionaire of the same level!!
However…
The first person Yang Xuming talked to wasn't Gu Wanshan or Su De!
He looked at Gu Yan.
Then, under the gazes of everyone present, he bowed slightly and said respectfully,"Young Master Gu…"
"Can I come in?"
