Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge
Chapter 98 How to Win Over Your Husband's Nemesis (33)
Secretary Gao placed some photos on the desk in front of Gu Zhaoting: "Mr. Gu, my men did take some photos. Please take a look."
Gu Zhaoting picked up the stack of photos and carefully flipped through them. They were photos of Qi Ning drinking with someone in a bar.
Under the dim, ambiguous lighting of the bar, Qi Ning raised her glass and chatted with others. The people sitting next to her were Lin Jiamin and her acquaintances.
Besides, there were some men at the same table, all of whom were people Gu Zhaoting knew from the same circle. However, Qi Ning and they didn't seem to do anything out of line.
Gu Zhaoting threw the stack of photos on the table: "That's all you got? What good is this? Useless stuff!"
Secretary Gao was startled. He stammered, "Mr. Gu, it's not that they didn't want to film something useful, it's just that Madam... Madam didn't do anything out of line."
Gu Zhaoting's cold gaze fell on Secretary Gao.
Secretary Gao felt a chill run down her spine and quickly added, "However, it's probably because she hasn't met that man yet. If she really cheated, she'll eventually meet him. Once they meet, our people will definitely be able to take pictures."
Gu Zhaoting glanced at the photos scattered on the table, then casually swept them to the ground: "Let them continue to follow her."
"Yes."
What they didn't know was that continuing to follow Qi Ning would be pointless, as Qi Ning and Cheng Yin wouldn't be meeting anytime soon, so they wouldn't be able to get any useful footage.
The two people they had arranged had already switched sides to Cheng Yin's side.
Two weeks later is Gu's mother's birthday.
During this period, Qi Ning often stayed by Gu's mother's side, helping her prepare for her birthday banquet and invitations, which made Gu's mother very gratified.
That evening, Gu Zhaoting returned to the Gu family home. As soon as he entered, his mother scolded him in a bad mood: "Zhaoting, look at Ningning. She knows to come back to keep me company every few days. What about you? Are you so busy with work? You don't even know to come home unless I call you."
Gu Zhaoting sat down in front of his mother with an indifferent expression.
Besides being busy with work, he spent most of his time with Ye Yunyi and her son.
But Gu Zhaoting didn't say it aloud, only casually saying, "I've been too busy with work lately."
"Busy, busy, busy? Is the company really that busy?" Mrs. Gu turned to Mr. Gu and asked, "How much work have you assigned him?"
Mr. Gu looked at Gu Zhaoting with disapproval in his eyes: "You've been in this position for a while now, can't you even handle a little bit of work?"
Seeing that his father had also spoken, Gu Zhaoting had no choice but to reply, "Mom and Dad, I've just been quite busy lately."
Gu's mother sat next to Qi Ning and said, "I'm asking you, you made a promise in front of me and your mother-in-law last time, saying that you would live a good life with Ningning. Have you kept that promise during this time?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhaoting fell silent for a moment and did not speak.
Seeing that Gu Zhaoting remained silent, Gu's mother turned her gaze to Qi Ning: "Ningning, you speak."
Qi Ning looked somewhat troubled: "Mom, Zhao Ting hasn't been home these past few days, I..."
Upon hearing this, Gu's mother became anxious: "Zhaoting, what's wrong with you? You don't even come home. How can you live a good life with Ningning and have children with her? Were all those promises you made just to fool me and your mother-in-law?"
"Of course not." Gu Zhaoting denied it subconsciously.
He glanced at Qi Ning and said the same thing again: "I've just been too busy lately."
At this moment, Qi Ning suddenly spoke up: "Mom and Dad, actually..."
"Actually, it's nothing!" Gu Zhaoting quickly interrupted her, afraid that she would reveal the matter of the child.
Mr. and Mrs. Gu looked at him strangely.
Gu Zhaoting picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip as if to cover up his embarrassment. He said, "Mom and Dad, I will definitely move back home after Mom's birthday banquet."
As he spoke, he gave Qi Ning a subtle look, implying that she should not reveal the matter of the child.
Qi Ning rolled her eyes slightly, gave him a provocative smile, and then didn't say anything. It seemed she had just been trying to scare him.
After hearing Gu Zhaoting's words, Gu's mother earnestly warned him again: "No matter what, you are not allowed to fool around with other women anymore. You must have a child with Ningning, or I will not forgive you!"
Mr. Gu also spoke up: "What your mother said is true. You and Ningning have been married for so long. It's important to give us a grandson soon. If you're really that busy with work, I'll arrange for someone else to take your place."
“Yes,” Gu’s mother agreed. “Right now, having a baby is the most important thing for you. You can put work and everything else aside.”
Hearing what Gu's parents said, Gu Zhaoting didn't refute anything, but he realized in his heart that he couldn't delay any longer.
Since his parents really want a grandson, perhaps he could try letting them know about Yangyang's existence.
As long as they accept Yangyang, Ye Yunyi will have one foot in the Gu family. They can find other solutions, which is better than the current situation.
The quickest and most suitable time would be his mother's birthday.
That evening, in front of Gu's parents, Gu Zhaoting and Qi Ning left together.
He escorted Qi Ning back to Lan Garden, but showed no intention of letting her stay overnight. Instead, he emphasized to Qi Ning, "That child poses no threat to your position as Mrs. Gu. You'd better not reveal this to your parents."
Qi Ning didn't even look at him directly. She replied lazily, "That depends on your performance. If you ever make me unhappy, I might do something in a fit of anger, and that's beyond my control."
After saying that, she went upstairs with light steps.
Gu Zhaoting watched Qi Ning's figure disappear with a gloomy expression. He sneered and quickly left Lan Garden.
Back at the villa he had arranged for Ye Yunyi, Gu Zhaoting shared his thoughts.
"What? You're going to take Yangyang to meet your parents?" Ye Yunyi asked.
"Yes." Gu Zhaoting nodded slightly. He took off his coat and handed it to Ye Yunyi. "My mother's birthday is in a few days. There will be a banquet at the hotel. On that day, you should take Yangyang to the lounge. After the banquet ends and the guests leave, I will take you to meet my parents."
He seemed to have been thinking about it for a long time, and had even planned out the day's schedule.
Holding Gu Zhaoting's coat, Ye Yunyi hesitated, looking somewhat fearful: "Why are you going to see your parents so soon? Is it because your wife still doesn't agree to a divorce?"
Gu Zhaoting paused for a moment, then hummed in agreement.
"It doesn't matter whether she agrees or not. I'll take you directly to meet my parents. They've always wanted a grandson, so they'll definitely like Yangyang."
"But..." Ye Yunyi was still a little worried, "But what if your parents... what if they take Yangyang away from me..."
Gu Zhaoting understood what Ye Yunyi was worried about. He put his arm around her and said, "Yunyi, even if my parents want to give Yangyang to Qi Ning to raise, it's only temporary. I know Qi Ning very well. She's an arrogant woman with a lot of spoiled princess temper. How could she possibly be willing to raise someone else's child?"
Gu Zhaoting had already thought it through. He said, "Even if she can endure it, let Yangyang cry in front of his grandparents from time to time, and they will naturally soften. Believe me, I will not let you and your son be separated. As long as Yangyang enters the Gu family, my parents will accept you sooner or later."
"So, once my parents accept Yangyang, whatever decision they make, don't make a fuss, just bear with it."
Ye Yunyi seemed to be convinced after hearing these words.
After much consideration, she agreed to Gu Zhaoting's arrangement.
Before we knew it, it was Gu's mother's birthday.
Although Cheng Yin and Gu Zhaoting didn't get along well, the relationship between the elders of the Cheng family and the elders of the Gu family was actually quite good.
How could these cunning and shrewd businessmen possibly strain their relationships like those inexperienced young people?
Therefore, on the surface, the relationship between the Gu family and the Cheng family is fairly amicable.
Naturally, an invitation was sent to the Cheng family for Gu's mother's birthday banquet.
Cheng's mother had gifts prepared and was ready to attend the banquet that very day.
Whether it was a coincidence or not, Cheng Yin happened to return to the Cheng family home that day.
Seeing that Cheng's mother was all dressed and ready to leave, he suddenly asked, "Mom, are you going to the Gu family's banquet?"
