CHAPTER 591: CHAPTER 580: THE DIVINE DOCTOR FATHER OF THE PRESTIGIOUS FAMILY’S DAUGHTER-IN-LAW
"Dad, what soup did you make today? It smells so good!" Early in the morning, Ye Chan was once again awakened by the aroma, and her stomach, which hadn’t felt hungry just moments before, suddenly started growling.
"Go wash your face, and after that, Dad will take your pulse."
"Why do you need to take my pulse when I’m perfectly healthy?"
"I know you’re healthy; it’s just a routine checkup."
"Oh!" Ye Chan knew that her father had become the Divine Doctor everyone talked about, and she was curious about how exactly he worked.
But reality was nothing like she imagined. Her father simply took a quick look, didn’t demand silence, and the diagnosis didn’t take long, making her suspect that he was perhaps just going through the motions with her.
"What? I’m in good health, right?" Ye Chan happily sipped her soup.
"Good? Is your stomach weak? Does it hurt a lot every time you get your period? Do you occasionally get dizzy?" Ye Qiu said annoyedly.
Ye Chan looked at her father in surprise, he had guessed everything correctly: "Dad, is that really it? What should I do? Do I need to take medicine?"
"No need, just pay attention to your daily routine, eat your meals on time, and I’ll add some medicinal herbs to your food, just don’t be picky eater."
"Thanks, Dad!" Ye Chan cozily cuddled up to him.
Ye Qiu also smiled and ruffled her hair, sipping the delicious soup. Ye Chan squinted her beautiful eyes contentedly. It had been a long time since father and daughter had been so close; they really should thank Li Chengyu.
"After resting for so many days, have you made any progress with work?"
"Dad, I’ve only been resting for half a month; are you that eager for me to go out and make money?"
"Stop joking, I’m worried about you becoming disconnected from society. Haven’t you already resigned from Pengcheng Group? Aren’t you afraid they’ll badmouth you? Aren’t you worried they’ll pressure you to make finding a job impossible?"
"Dad, you guys from the Li family think too highly of yourselves." Ye Chan scoffed, "Pengcheng Group, despite its substantial capital, has only been established for just over twenty years, and besides, with so many companies in the capital? There are plenty stronger than them, really thinking everyone gives them face?"
"Hmm, it’s good as long as you have a plan in mind."
"However, recently one company did send me an invitation, hoping I could be the general manager of their subsidiary."
"Which company? Is it reliable? Is it close to home?" Ye Qiu quickly asked.
"Gu Pharmaceutical, a subsidiary of the Gu Group. It’s quite close to home, but its development has been stagnant for the past few years."
"What? Worried about the package not being good?"
"No, the package offered by Gu is much more generous than what the Li family offered, it’s just that there are some entanglements with the Li family."
"What kind of entanglements? I’ve heard about Gu; it’s the largest real estate company, how could the Li family control them?"
"The Li family can’t control them, but Li Xinyi seems to be in good terms with the second son of the Gu Family, Gu Mingshen. I don’t want to get entangled with them anymore."
"Are they engaged?"
"Not yet, but from what I see, Li Chengyu’s mother intends to make Gu Mingshen her son-in-law."
"So, does Gu Mingshen also manage Gu Pharmaceutical?"
"No, it’s his cousin Gu Mingting who is in charge."
"Then that settles it, what’s there not to go for? Don’t worry about Li Xinyi and Gu Mingshen; they haven’t even started anything serious yet. Even if Li Xinyi marries Gu Mingshen, it won’t matter—his cousin isn’t his real brother, and the major and minor branches of the family will eventually split. Would the assets under Gu Mingting’s control be handed over to Gu Mingshen?"
Ye Qiu continued to analyze point by point for the woman: "Besides, you are going there to work, not to meddle in their household affairs. As long as you do your job well, Li Xinyi won’t be able to interfere, right? Although dad hasn’t met Li Xinyi many times, based on years of experience, Li Xinyi is inexperienced in the ways of the world; she probably doesn’t understand the subtleties of human relationships. Even if Gu Mingshen marries her, he won’t let her interfere with work matters."
"Dad, I understand what you mean, I was mistaken before. Gu Pharmaceutical might have stagnated in recent years, but it is indeed a good place to work, I will reply to their email right now."
"Don’t force yourself, Dad’s income is alright, even if you don’t go out to work, Dad can still provide for you."
"Wouldn’t that make me a parasite?" Ye Chan chuckled lightly, "It’s just that your daughter strives on her own, otherwise, being pampered by you, I’d eventually turn into someone who only knows how to enjoy life without worries."
"Don’t look down on those who are pampered; people are pampered because they have wealthy families and are spoiled by them. I would rather you become pampered. Being pampered is good; you have food, drink, fun, and nothing to worry about. Life is just a few hasty decades, why live so hard?"
"Mm, dad, you’re right, so you shouldn’t take on so many patients at your clinic in the future, what if it wears you out? I won’t keep you any longer, I’ll wash the dishes later, please don’t spoil me anymore."
Looking at Ye Chan who had once again taken up her spirit after letting go of her worries, Ye Qiu’s face couldn’t help but show a more indulgent smile; fortunately, he wasn’t too late.
"President, Miss Ye Chan has replied to our email, about the position she hopes to discuss it face to face with you," Gu Mingting reported solemnly to Gu Group.
"Secretary Li, do I have any free time in the next few days?"
"You have an appointment with the Second Young Master tomorrow at 1:30 PM, and nothing else after that."
"Okay, then invite Miss Ye Chan over at 2 PM!"
"Yes."
Early the next morning, Li Xinyi woke up early, and various gorgeous dresses filled the bed.
"Oh, who is our little princess dressing up for?" Gao Juan entered the room, a face full of indulgent smile.
Li Xinyi blushed: "Mom, what are you talking about? I’m just cleaning out the closet to see which ones I don’t like and donate them."
"Yes, yes, our little princess is the most loving," Gao Juan perfunctorily said, "Quickly drink the bird’s nest, it beautifies and nourishes the skin."
Li Xinyi still had other things on her mind, and sipped hastily.
"Slow down, it’s only eight o’clock. Brother Mingshen’s plane lands at eleven thirty, there’s still time."
"Mom..." Feeling her thoughts exposed, Li Xinyi stamped her foot in embarrassment.
Gao Juan tapped her daughter’s forehead: "What’s there to be shy about? So, have you decided which one to wear? Want mom to give you a suggestion?"
"No need, no need, just go out!" Li Xinyi pushed her mom out the room door, but then she became indecisive again facing the entire wardrobe of dresses.
Which one to wear after all?
This one in white tulle is quite unique, that purple one looks fairy-like, and the pink one is very ladylike; she still didn’t know which type of clothes Brother Mingshen really likes her to wear.
In the end, Li Xinyi tried on several dresses and when time was almost running out, she picked a slightly sexy off-shoulder pink and white dress.
