The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 723: Chapter 724: A Group of People Comes to Deliver Gifts

These people might not be ordinary citizens but rather bosses of all the conglomerates in Jiang City. Among them, some have assets worth hundreds of millions, while others have assets only worth tens of millions.

But now, regardless of their wealth, these people want to be closer to the delivery room because standing outside the delivery room are Zhu Lie and the Gu Family’s members, both considered the current authorities in Jiang City.

Of course, inside the delivery room, Tang Qiulu is the most important person.

These people understand that if they can take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Tang Qiulu, their future development in Jiang City will certainly reach a higher level.

These people came to the hospital with exceptionally valuable gifts, all hoping to deliver them promptly to the soon-to-arrive privileged child.

Now, the corridor has become especially noisy because of the crowd. Unable to tolerate the noise, Zhu Lie angrily shouted, ”If anyone dares to make any noise, don’t think about staying in Jiang City in the future!”

With Zhu Lie’s fierce roar, the hallway suddenly quieted down; even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard. Everyone even began to breathe cautiously.

The purpose of these people’s visit is to please Tang Qiulu. If they annoy Zhu Lie, it would be like lifting a stone to smash their own foot.

”This is the treatment a descendant of a powerful family should receive. Looking back on my past achievements, it really amounts to nothing.” Gu Qing’er sighed, recalling what Gu Changsheng had narrated; before she was born, many also came to court her, but such a grand scene never occurred.

Gu Changsheng smiled and said, ”Your brother’s influence in Jiang City is exceptionally subtle. But now, those influences are manifesting in the Shen Family and Zhu Lie, and the merchants primarily care about how much benefit they can gain, absolutely unwilling to miss the opportunity to please Tang Qiulu.”

”Grandpa, just look at what those guys brought. I heard the hospital parking lot has several Lamborghini sports cars brought by these people. My brother’s child is just a normal human, not someone born able to drive a car!” Gu Qing’er said with a face of disbelief.

Sending a sports car as a gift to a newborn is truly beyond comprehension; she really can’t understand what these people are thinking.

”The key doesn’t lie in the gift itself but in whether it’s valuable. Before the child even arrives, they already have a garage full of luxury cars. A life others might not achieve after striving for a lifetime, quite enviable indeed.” Gu Changsheng said with a smile.

Such gifts are indeed not quite suitable for a newborn, but it’s understandable. These merchants mostly focus on benefits, so in their eyes, the more valuable the gift, the more significant the sentiment it conveys.

Gu Qing’er glanced at the delivery room, seeing no signs of anyone coming out; it’s been over two hours.

”Not sure if it’s a boy or a girl. If it’s a boy, this little guy would be the young master of Jiang City. If it’s a girl, even better—born as everyone’s little princess, and she’ll definitely be adored by my brother and others.” Gu Qing’er said.

”What do you hope, a boy or a girl?” Gu Changsheng asked with curiosity all over his face.

”Definitely a girl! I love my niece, so I can dress the little one adorably.” Gu Qing’er replied with a smile, already imagining the future cherished little princess trailing behind her like a little buddy.

”You didn’t come here empty-handed, did you?” Gu Changsheng teased.

Gu Qing’er gave Gu Changsheng a disdainful look and said, ”People flock together based on type; Grandpa, you can’t mock me. I heard you already customized a gift months ago.”

Gu Changsheng wiped his forehead awkwardly and said, ”Everyone is worldly, and Grandpa can’t avoid being worldly either.”

Gu Qing’er wrinkled her nose unhappily and said, ”You’ve never been so attentive during my birthdays. I’ve never received anything custom-made by Grandpa.”

”We’re family, so no need for such courtesy, right?” Gu Changsheng said.

”Hey, Grandpa is being biased.” Gu Qing’er said as she tugged Gu Changsheng’s beard, causing him to cry out incessantly.

Gu Changsheng hastily pleaded for mercy, while sideways Zhu Lie, seeing this scene, felt somewhat stifled inside.

He didn’t want to hear any noise now. For Zhu Lie, the seconds stretched like years because Tang Qiulu is undergoing one of the most dangerous moments of her life.

”You two had enough fun, can you take a rest?” Zhu Lie couldn’t help but remind.

Gu Qing’er quickly let go of Gu Changsheng, not daring to continue misbehaving, but she didn’t complain to Zhu Lie because, under the current circumstances, Zhu Lie’s unease was entirely understandable.

”Feng Bin, are the arrangements outside the hospital in place?” Zhu Lie asked Feng Bin.

”Over a thousand of our brothers are guarding the hospital. Not even a mosquito could fly in.” Feng Bin reported.

Zhu Lie was worried someone might cause trouble on this special day, so he ordered thousands to guard the hospital surroundings and interior.

Besides those genuinely seeking medical help and their family members, no irrelevant people were allowed inside; Zhu Lie was extremely stringent during this period.

At this time, Sun Mei sat on the multi-seat outside the hospital delivery room, with eyes filled with coldness.

Sun Mei had waited a long time for this moment. Though outsiders couldn’t enter the hospital, no one would suspect that the most dangerous person was now close to Tang Qiulu.

Looking at the hallway crowd, Zhu Lie told Feng Bin, ”Have these guys put down their gifts and record who gave them, then make them leave the hospital and not cause chaos.”

”Alright.” Feng Bin, receiving orders, departed. The crowd, despite some reluctance in their hearts, dared not utter a word in response to Zhu Lie’s arrangement.

No one wanted to offend the irritable Zhu Lie at this time, or they’d really have no way to stay in Jiang City in the future.

”Everyone who delivered gifts has the right to attend the upcoming full moon and hundred-day celebration banquets.” Zhu Lie announced to the crowd.
