CHAPTER 609: CHAPTER 598: THE DIVINE DOCTOR FATHER OF THE WEALTHY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW

Ye Chan picked up several real estate materials and took a serious look before casually asking, "Beiyuan, isn’t that where you currently live, President Gu?"

Gu Mingting nodded frankly: "Yeah, that area is pretty good, so I kept a suite for myself."

He paused for a moment before adding: "Actually, I have a bit of a personal motive for suggesting you buy this villa."

"Oh?" Ye Chan looked at him with surprise.

Gu Mingting, without the slightest bit of embarrassment, solemnly said: "Mingmei told me that Gu Hao really likes your dad, and is also willing to follow him to learn Chinese medicine. I thought it would be convenient for Gu Hao to learn if you lived closer. Of course, I will prepare a gift for Gu Hao as an apprentice first."

Gu Mingting now also knew how valuable Ye Qiu’s medical skills were and that not just anyone could learn them.

Although he didn’t like this son that much, he was after all his father. Since Gu Hao liked it, let him learn; it’s just a matter of spending a little more, and Gu Mingting could certainly afford it.

"No need, no need, my dad also likes Gu Hao a lot. If he wants to learn, he should just come." Ye Chan hurriedly waved her hand and then laughed, "But if you insist on showing gratitude, President Gu, how about giving me the lowest price for this villa?"

"It’s only right," Gu Mingting nodded as if it were a matter of course, "As an outstanding employee of the company, this is a benefit you deserve."

"Then, thank you, President Gu." Ye Chan wasn’t shy about it and directly secured the villa with him.

"Okay, I’ll instruct Secretary Li about it later, and she will quickly arrange to process the paperwork for you." After finishing speaking, Gu Mingting left without lingering a moment longer.

Ye Chan sighed in admiration, having a real estate mogul as a boss was really convenient!

That evening, to avoid Li Chengyu’s harassment, Ye Chan simply packed up and moved into an apartment under Gu Mingmei’s name.

Gu Mingmei arrived with Gu Hao, saying it was to celebrate her moving to a new place.

She leaned against the window with arms crossed: "Tsk tsk, how shameless is Li Chengyu! I saw him at a banquet not long ago, and he was acting all decent. What does he still want after everything’s over?"

"I can tell that he still has feelings for me, it’s just that his purpose in pursuing me this time is not so pure," Ye Chan said while packing her things.

Gu Hao, seeing Ye Chan busy by herself, also toddled over and huffed to help her move things.

"Auntie thanks Gu Hao, but no need, you see you’re all sweaty, go rest at your aunt’s place," Ye Chan knelt down to wipe off Gu Hao’s sweat and gently said.

Gu Mingmei laughed jealously: "If he wants to help you, just accept it, it’s his own business if he gets tired."

Ye Chan glanced at her with a smile: "Still family, aren’t you? Do you talk about kids like that?"

Gu Mingmei raised an eyebrow: "To him, this aunt of his doesn’t even compare to you, an aunt without any blood relation."

Speaking of which, she still cared for her nephew and changed him into a fresh, dry T-shirt.

"Thank you, Auntie," Gu Hao whispered in Gu Mingmei’s ear, and Gu Mingmei’s eyes curved in a smile, feeling a sense of achievement seeing her nephew getting better and better each day.

"I can see Gu Hao really likes his auntie, you just keep on feeling proud," Ye Chan laughed at her for not being content.

Gu Mingmei resumed the previous topic: "I know what the Li family is after. Aren’t they transitioning to make high-end cosmetics? They probably have their eyes on Uncle Ye’s skin treatment formula."

As she spoke, her laughter grew even brighter: "Who knows how they will beat their chests and stomp their feet when they find out Uncle Ye also sold our family a harmless weight loss formula."

What are the most profitable industries today? It comes down to women and children.

Let’s leave children aside for now, women will do anything for their beauty.

A beauty formula, a weight loss formula, they’ve really got women nowadays by the throat. Gu Mingmei can already imagine the product’s blockbuster release.

Watching the money that could have been theirs pouring into someone else’s pocket, how could the Li family not regret it?

"You must never be fooled by Li Chengyu, he’s a total momma’s boy who listens to everything his parents say. He’s nice to you now, but you’ll regret it later," Gu Mingmei warned her.

Ye Chan sighed: "I moved here to avoid him. How could I ever go back to Li Chengyu after what he did to me? It’s not just me—his mistress too, five months pregnant, and he just decided to get rid of it. That was when I first realized how heartless he could be."

"His parents are willing to give up their grandchild?" Gu Mingmei raised an eyebrow.

Ye Chan was noncommittal: "Maybe it was his parents who told him to do it."

"Now that you mention it, that’s very possible," Gu Mingmei said, stroking her chin. "And I doubt if that child was really aborted."

Su Qin of course wouldn’t abort the child; she had planned from the start to use this child to marry into the Li family. Just when she was nearly successful, you tell her to have an abortion?

Su Qin harbored deep resentment. She outwardly took Li Chengyu’s money and agreed to the abortion, but in reality, she moved to another place to live, determined to give birth to this child.

She wasn’t oblivious to what the Li family was currently plotting, nor was she unaware of her inability to confront the Li family’s power, but what if the child was born? Could the Li family really abandon their own flesh and blood?

So Su Qin decided to take a gamble, she couldn’t just walk away in defeat no matter what.

"Brother, did you fail again? Ye Chan still refused you?" At Donghu Villa, Li Xinyi wandered down from upstairs, looking lost.

In the past two months, she tried many ways to get close to Gu Mingshen, but without exception, all failed, and since then, she changed a lot.

However, that wasn’t the main cause of her transformation. Seeing that Gu Mingshen had lost interest in his daughter, Li Pengcheng took her to social events.

His painstakingly nurtured daughter couldn’t be wasted like that.

Which business shark didn’t possess shrewdness? Seeing Li Pengcheng’s intentions, they backed off and waited to bid for Li Xinyi.

Li Xinyi had a sheltered life, how could she have known about these things? And her innocent look made her even more of a target for certain men.

Mr. Li still had a conscience; he introduced one prospective date after another to his daughter but didn’t force Li Xinyi to accept any of them.

However, Li Xinyi misunderstood; she thought Mr. Li wanted to sell her for a good price!

Thereafter, as she met more and more people, Li Xinyi became increasingly sullen. The more innocent and naïve a person is, the more obstinately they adhere to certain ideas, which is why she grew to hate her family.

Especially Li Chengyu and Ye Chan, she thought, if it weren’t for Ye Chan, her Brother Ming Shen wouldn’t be like this towards her. And as for her brother, with his sister in such a state, why did he still want to chase after the very cause of all the trouble?
