Anyway, the investors have money to spend.
No one raised any objections.
After all, the situation Lin Shi and Lin Xijiang encountered is indeed a key highlight of this episode, and it’s only beneficial for everyone to cooperate.
However, Chi Yu needs to leave now, so the director talked to Yi Shu about recording two final scenes before Chi Yu departs, with the pay still calculated at double.
The director was worried that Chi Yu, eager to leave with President Gu, wouldn’t cooperate. Fortunately, to the director’s relief, Chi Yu agreed to record the additional scenes.
After finishing the supplentary scenes.
The car was parked at the village chief’s house. Chi Yu said he’d go get the car, but Gu Yuan shook her head, "We don’t know when we’ll return next ti. Let’s go say goodbye to the village chief before leaving."
Chi Yu understood Gu Yuan’s intention. At the farmhouse, Gu Yuan didn’t have any luggage, only Chi Yu’s.
But Chi Yu didn’t plan to take his luggage, handing it over to Yi Shu instead.
Yi Shu made an OK gesture, "No problem, have a safe journey."
"Okay."
Chi Yu picked up his daughter and went downstairs.
Just as they reached downstairs, Sheng Yi was walking towards Gu Yuan.
"Yuanyuan~"
Watching Sheng Yi about to approach Gu Yuan, Chi Yu quickly stepped to Gu Yuan’s side, "The village chief just called asking when we’d go over."
Gu Yuan looked at him, "When did you leave the village chief your number?"
Chi Yu: "All our program’s guests have left their numbers."
Gu Yuan didn’t think much and nodded, "I see."
Thus, after Sheng Yi walked over, Gu Yuan said, "Go back and rest well, adjust to your best state for the fan eting, and after it’s over get so rest early, and I’ll pick you up for dinner tomorrow."
"Why the rush to go back, is there an urgent matter at the company?" Sheng Yi asked.
Actually, there was nothing urgent at the company.
Now Gu Yuan has already started to reduce her workload at the Gu Family, handing over work to a batch of people she’s cultivated over the years so she can catch her breath.
"There are so company matters and a bit of personal stuff," she said, lightly patting Sheng Yi’s arm, "I’m heading off now."
"Take care on the road, Yuanyuan." Sheng Yi waved, unwilling to part.
Chi Yu was waiting for Gu Yuan ahead, their conversation earlier he had eavesdropped on, and after seeing Gu Yuan walk over, he was assured that Sheng Yi didn’t say anything inappropriate in front of Gu Yuan, feeling relieved.
After saying goodbye to the village chief and Aunt Cai, Gu Yuan was not in a great mood.
Whether Gu Yuan first opened the farmhouse in the countryside alone or later learned she was a big company boss, the village chief and Aunt Cai cherished and cared for her like a daughter. It’s rare to et them once a year, so naturally, the village chief wanted Gu Yuan to stay longer and even asked if she felt the farmhouse was too noisy, suggesting she stay there.
Of course, Gu Yuan refused all of that, using company matters as an excuse.
And promised the village chief she’d be back for New Year’s Day.
...
In the car.
Gu Yuan sits in the back seat, with Suisui next to her, already buckled up, her little legs swinging, looking quite pleased.
No wonder she’s pleased.
Because as they got in the car, Aunt Cai stuffed lots of delicious treats for Suisui.
Gu Yuan couldn’t refuse Aunt Cai’s kindness to a child, and Suisui, seeing her mom not objecting, smiled so widely her mouth could almost reach the back of her head.
"Eat Fish, do you want so candy?"
"I have lots and lots of candy here, toffee, marshmallows..."
So of those candies were the ones Chi Yu gave Suisui last night, identical even in wrapping.
Seated in the driver’s seat, Chi Yu glanced at the candies in Suisui’s hand through the rearview mirror and reminded, "Eat less today, you already had four pieces last night, these candies are too sweet and bad for your teeth."
Gu Yuan, initially unsettled, was caught off guard by Chi Yu’s words and glanced at the little bag in Suisui’s lap.
Soon mother and daughter locked eyes.
Suisui clutched the bag tightly and began to move it behind her.
Gu Yuan said expressionlessly, "Hand it over."
"No!" Suisui bravely defended her candies.
But mom’s gaze made her bravery falter quickly, and she imdiately surrendered, obediently handing over the bag of snacks.
Watching the bag pass into mom’s hands, Suisui tried to scoot closer, but the seatbelt restrained her movents, so she could only pitifully mumble, "My toffee, my marshmallows, my tofu, my lon seeds, I have nothing left..."
