Marrying a wealthy family for the second time, being spoiled by a paranoid childhood sweetheart

"I'm in the hospital, how can I see Mr. Gu?"

Even when he was in the hospital, he didn't forget to call and urge Jiang Ru to come to him. Jiang Ru was so angry that she was about to explode.

"The bet between us didn't specify any extension of hospitalization. There are only three days left. You should leave then. This workplace is not suitable for you. Don't come back."

Jiang Yanxin deliberately provoked Jiang Ru because she knew that Jiang Ru was in the hospital and time was passing by. She believed that Jiang Ru would definitely not get the cooperation, so she called to show off.

Jiang Ru frowned tightly and sneered, "There are still three days left, why are you in such a hurry? Who said I can't take Mr. Gu? I'm definitely not the one who leaves!"

She threatened that she would be able to take down Gu Chen and make Jiang Yanxin apologize obediently.

Hearing this, Jiang Yanxin seemed to have heard a huge joke and didn't believe it at all. She laughed unscrupulously:

"You're already in the hospital, and you're still being stubborn. Fine, I'll wait for three days. By then, you'll leave convinced, and then we'll see what tricks you have up your sleeve. Someone lost the bet, so don't cry."

She hung up the phone triumphantly. Jiang Ru was now sick and in the hospital, so how could she see Gu Chen? It was really God helping her. She was just waiting to see Jiang Ru kicked out openly in three days. She felt so happy.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ru, despite boasting in front of Jiang Yanxin, felt embarrassed when facing Gu Chen. She begged again, hoping to get the interview with Gu Chen: "I owe you such a big favor. I still hope you can help me. Can you agree to our interview? This is really important to me!"

Jiang Ru's voice sounded a little embarrassed. Now even Jiang Ru was not sure whether he would agree.

"Let's go somewhere after you are discharged from the hospital!" Gu Chen did not give in and asked Jiang Ru to accompany him to a place after she was discharged from the hospital so that he could make a decision.

"Where?"

Jiang Ru was curious and wanted to ask more questions, but he had to wait until Jiang Ru showed up before giving the answer, so he refused to reveal it now.

"You'll know when you get there."

Gu Chen deliberately retained some mystery, which made Jiang Ru even more curious about where this place was. Could it be that he wanted to sell himself out?

Jiang Ru was feeling uneasy at this moment, but she had no other choice but to agree.

At night, Gu Chen went home. After one day in the hospital, Jiang Ru had another examination because the medicine was very effective.

The next morning, after the test results came out, the doctor informed Jiang Ru that she could be discharged from the hospital: "You can be discharged now. Your condition has recovered quickly and there is no major problem."

Jiang Ru doesn't have any major problems now and can communicate. She has recovered after a day of rest.

Yes, Jiang Ru was very happy after being discharged from the hospital. Gu Chen had not come yet in the morning and needed to work overtime at the company, so she specially asked a nurse to accompany Jiang Ru today.

Jiang Ru did not disturb Gu Chen and secretly left the hospital alone. She did not find Gu Chen immediately, but returned to her apartment to make preparations.

The two of them lived next door to each other. Jiang Ru planned to go back to her own home to cook a meal to thank Gu Chen. When she was discharged from the hospital, she went to the vegetable market to buy a lot of ingredients, including many cookies and desserts. She also prepared a hot pot and made a video to show Gu Chen.

Jiang Ru called him specifically to give him a surprise. After sending the photo, the call was answered: "I have been discharged from the hospital today. I want to treat you to a hot pot meal."

"Really? You can be discharged now. Congratulations."

After learning that Jiang Ru was discharged from the hospital, Gu Chen's face finally relaxed.

"But..." Gu Chen hesitated for a moment when he saw the contract waiting for him in his hand.

He hadn't come to the hospital to accompany Jiang Ru today because there was an important collaboration with a foreign company that needed to be signed yesterday, but because he had postponed it, he could only talk to her today. It was already the deadline.

The partner is now on the way and will arrive in the evening. All that is left is to prepare for the discussion of the plan. However, if a cooperation is to be negotiated, it will take a certain amount of time to finalize it. However, the time happens to conflict, so Gu Chen hesitated for a moment.

"What's wrong? Are you not free today? I've been preparing for a long time since early morning."

Jiang Ru invited him warmly, but her tone was a bit coquettish as she was worried that he would not agree.

How could he bear to disappoint Jiang Ru? Gu Chen couldn't refuse, and after a moment he agreed: "Don't worry, I won't miss the hot pot tonight."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Chen called his senior assistant: "Hey, contact the partner immediately and cancel the contract for tonight."

"The partner is from abroad. If you turn them down, they'll definitely not cooperate with us. You must think carefully about this. This is a contract worth hundreds of millions!"

The senior assistant was shocked. They were already prepared, waiting for the partner to arrive to finalize the deal. If they canceled it now, wouldn't it be a mess? In the near future? The company would suffer a loss of hundreds of millions.

Gu Chen's order was unquestionable. He asked directly: "Do you think I look like someone who is short of that little money?"

The special assistant was overwhelmed. Even if he was a billionaire, he couldn't be so extravagant. Could he postpone a contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars? Money means you can be willful!

"May I ask, what is it that would make you turn down a cooperation worth hundreds of millions?"

The special assistant was very curious about what kind of thing could make Gu Chen cancel his good-intentioned cooperation. This must be something big that happened.

"I want to eat hot pot, is that a reason?"

Unexpectedly, Gu Chen just lightly gave a reason.

"It's just a hot pot. Besides, don't you dislike greasy food like hot pot?"

This made the special assistant even more jaw-dropping. He had been with Gu Chen for many years and had followed Gu Chen back from abroad. Gu Chen's daily diet was very light, but he never ate these things and would not even touch them.

"I told you to cancel the cooperation, so just cancel it. If you say another word of nonsense, I'll shut you up!"

The special assistant talked too much nonsense, and Gu Chen became impatient. He threatened him directly and then hung up the phone. He believed that the special assistant knew what to do, and he dared not disobey his opinion.

After making the arrangements, Gu Chen drove back and entered Jiang Ru's apartment.

Jiang Ru's apartment is clean and tidy. Although it is not big, it is enough for one person. It is definitely far from Gu Chen's luxurious large flat.
