Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 391: Chapter 404 I Like Ruonan

Yesterday, after all the guests had left, only the brother of this son remained. He was aware of this, and, as for Gu Haoyu, the eldest son of the Gu Family in the Imperial City, he graduated and went into business at twenty-two. In just five short years, he doubled the family’s assets, making the Gu Family the largest conglomerate in the Imperial City.

This man’s abilities were already impressive back in military school. However, due to family reasons, he returned to the family business upon graduation and entered the business world.

Unexpectedly, he excelled even more in the business world, creating one legend after another.

He felt gratified at first that his son could make friends with such a person, but he never expected that this man would have such a close relationship with his daughter.

If it were the other four of the Five Young Masters of the Imperial who knew his daughter, he wouldn’t be surprised. However, as a man himself, he sensitively noticed the unusual emotions in Gu Haoyu’s eyes when he looked at his daughter.

Gu Haoyu came downstairs and approached the two of them, first greeting Lin Weidong, who nodded politely in response.

”Ruonan, go and change your clothes. I’ll go with you.”

Gu Haoyu said this as he sat down on the sofa, a posture that clearly indicated he would wait for her there.

”B... Brother, you want to go with me?” Lin Ruonan asked, pointing at her nose.

She didn’t expect Gu Haoyu to accompany her to apologize to An Ran. This matter had nothing to do with him, right? Could it be that Brother was afraid Mu Xingfeng would make things difficult for her?

She hadn’t yet decided whether to apologize to An Ran. Although they were indeed in the wrong, Mu Xingfeng chose another woman after knowing they were going to be engaged, which left her feeling quite uneasy. Moreover, now she had to apologize to this woman, and she couldn’t quite bring herself to do it.

Given Mu Xingfeng’s temperament, what if he embarrassed her in front of An Ran? It’s not like he hadn’t done that before. She had been strong-willed and had a stronger sense of pride than most people since childhood, but now, in front of Mu Xingfeng, she continually felt undermined. She really didn’t want to become worthless in his eyes anymore.

Seeing Lin Ruonan’s expression, Gu Haoyu knew what she was thinking. He reached out and patted her on the shoulder. ”Go on, don’t worry. With Brother here, he won’t make things difficult for you. Do you really want to cut ties with Mu Xingfeng forever?”

Upon hearing this, Lin Ruonan raised her head abruptly. Did she really want to cut ties with Mu Xingfeng forever? The answer was undoubtedly no. Although he had rejected her, she had loved him for twenty years, and they were in the same social circle. How could they possibly never interact again?

”Haoyu is right. Whether it’s for the sake of your relationship or the long-standing friendship between the Lin and Mu Families, you need to go. Ruonan, when you make a mistake, you must face the consequences. That’s what being my daughter means.” Lin Weidong spoke up from the side as well.

Lin Ruonan finally nodded. ”Brother, wait for me a moment. I’ll go change my clothes.”

”Okay,” Gu Haoyu said, his gaze following her up the stairs before he looked away.

”Haoyu, you and Nan?” Lin Weidong looked at Gu Haoyu with a hint of admiration and couldn’t help but ask.

”Uncle, I like Ruonan. I hope you can approve,” Gu Haoyu said earnestly.

Lin Weidong had suspected Gu Haoyu’s feelings for Lin Ruonan were special, but he didn’t expect him to admit it so directly.

While he was pleased, he was also a bit worried. His daughter was so stubborn. Mu Xingfeng was like a block of ice that she couldn’t melt even after twenty years. Now that Mu Xingfeng had a girlfriend, she still hadn’t given up.
