Chapter 53 About Gu Wan’s Past
The cafeteria at Gu Corporation was quite famous. The chefs hired were all highly-trained, and all staff’s meals were subsidized, so everyone was quite happy to eat in the canteen.
Moreover, they would occasionally see employees from other companies.
They came after hearing about the cafeteria.
After she had ordered the food, she walked over to Mr. Gu.
Mr. Gu picked up a piece of meat and placed it in her bowl. “Chuchu, why are they all vegetarian? You’re too skinny. You should eat more.”
Gu Chuchu smiled. “Isn’t there pork? I’ve eaten it before when I went to Yangcheng City. I think it’s not as delicious as the one here.”
“Why didn’t you go to Rongfu Restaurant when you were in Yangcheng City? Every time I went, I would go there to eat. It’s been more than ten years, and the taste hasn’t changed at all,” Mr. Gu said.
Gu Chu answered casually, “I went there to look for the CEO of Wang Tai Group. Next time when I go again, I’ll definitely try it.”
The smile on Mr. Gu’s face disappeared a little.
At the mention of Wang Tai Group, he thought of the Yangchang Project, and then he thought of Gu Chu’s dedication to this project. She had never complained about going back and forth between Yangcheng and Haicheng City. However, the project was given to Gu Wan, who had done nothing. Even Mr. Gu felt sorry for her.
He said, “I know that you’ve been wronged. Now that the project is back in your hands, do it well.”
He sighed again. “Your sister just came back. Your mother inevitably felt guilty, so she thought of ways to make it up to her.” “Yes, yes, I know,” Gu Chu said understandingly. “Actually, she is new here. She has to do something to convince everyone that she’s capable.”
She changed the topic. “Since mom has such plans, she should have told me earlier. I will give the project to her. I’m afraid that she will not be able to convince others.”
She added, “If mom told me earlier, I could have brought her to Yangcheng and City and fight for the contract together. This way, even if she took the project, no one would question it.”
Mr. Gu knew this too. He sighed. “I didn’t know why your mother would go to Feng Jia on her own accord. If I had known earlier, I definitely wouldn’t have let her go.”
Gu Chu blinked. He didn’t know either?
Could it be that Gu Wan saw her going to Yangcheng City and wanted to fight for this project, so she told their mom to get it for her?
Gu Chu took some fish and placed them in her father’s bowl, she suppressed her emotions and said, “I thought mom would discuss everything with you. Then what condition did she propose to the Feng family? Did the Gu and Feng families exchange resources?”
Mr. Gu shook his head. “No, it has nothing to do with the Gu family. It’s your mother who promised Feng Jia that the He Family would stand by his side and help him.”
So that was it.
The He family was Mrs. Gu’s maternal family. They were also a prestigious family in the capital.
However, even if the He family was okay with it, Feng Jia did not need their help, right?
Gu Chu did not understand the logic behind it. She did not think about it for the time being. After all, she still had more important information to ask about.
She said, “Let’s eat. The food is already cold. But speaking of mom’s family, I remember that Gu Wan went to university in the capital, right?”
“Yes.” Mr. Gu nodded.
“So she has been staying in the capital ever since she graduated? How did she find her?”
“Yes, she stayed in the capital.”
Gu Chu rolled her eyes. “The capital is so big. How did mom find her?”
“It’s her…” Mr. Gu suddenly thought of something and hesitated to speak
Gu Chu was curious. “What?”
Mr. Gu looked at her with some fear. “Your mother’s family has been helping to find her, so by chance, they found her.”
There was no additional information in that statement.
“Oh, that must be because grandpa and grandma are looking down from heaven. Before they died, the person they missed the most was Gu Wan. By the way, she was adopted, right? Now that she’s come back, did she thank her adoptive parents?”
Mr. Gu sighed. “Her adoptive parents have passed away.”
Gu Chu was shocked. “Both of them have passed away? Are there no other relatives in the family?”
Mr. Gu finally came back to his senses. “Didn’t you say that the food is cold? Let’s eat.”
“I was just asking”She pursed her lips. “That day, Lu Shen asked me how Gu Wan came back. I don’t even know. We’re a family, but you and mom seem to be keeping it from me.”
Mr. Gu was amused. “What do you mean? It’s just that they are already dead, so I can’t say much.”
Gu Chu said, “Alright, let’s continue eating.’
