After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

"Just because of my relationship problems, the government and banks won't give the Gu family a loan? Grandpa, how is that possible?"

Gu Tianyou thought this was absurd.

Seeing that he didn't seem to believe him, Grandpa Gu called him aside and took out his WeChat chat history with the bank manager.

"It's not that we don't respect you, it's just that your grandson's scandal was all over the place recently, causing Gu's stock price to plummet. Your grandson has always been outstanding, how could he suddenly be so careless in matters of the heart? This makes us very unconfident about the future of your Gu's Group."

"Okay, I understand. I'll talk to Tianyou about it."

After reading the chat history between Grandpa Gu and the chairman, Gu Tianyou's brows furrowed so deeply they almost formed a deep frown.

"Grandpa, I have already clarified to the media that Ye Ying'er and I have a normal working relationship!"

He felt that the bank manager was a pedantic, feudal patriarch who even investigated his personal relationships.

When Grandpa Gu saw that his grandson still seemed stubborn and unruly, he became furious.

He pointed to a spot in the banquet hall and said, "The bank president is here tonight too. Just give me one answer: are you going to marry Shen Yao or Ye Yingying? If you announce your fiancée tonight, the bank will release the loan to you in a few days."

"Grandpa, you called Shen Yao and me back tonight just to say this?" Gu Tianyou looked at the old man in disbelief.

Old Master Gu's eyes were unfathomable. "It's not just because of that."

He glanced at Ye Yingying out of the corner of his eye and continued, "Have you ever regretted treating Shen Yao this way for this woman?"

Following Old Master Gu's gaze, Gu Tianyou looked at Ye Yingying and said firmly, "I don't regret it! Shen Yao wronged Yingying first, and Yingying is my savior. I can't stand by and watch Shen Yao bully Yingying like this!"

"Hmph!" Old Master Gu sneered, "Since that's the case, then you should marry Ye Yingying. Perhaps after the marriage, you'll begin to see this woman's true colors."

"Grandpa, Yingying didn't do anything wrong, why are you targeting her?"

"How am I targeting her? I'm doing you two a favor."

"Grandpa, you..."

"Did I say something wrong?"

Grandpa Gu stared intently at Gu Tianyou, his gaze sharp.

Gu Tianyou was speechless for a moment.

He has always been at odds with and rebelling against Old Master Gu.

Therefore, he didn't give Shen Yao, the marriage partner arranged by Grandpa Gu, a friendly look.

"Grandpa, I really don't want to get married right now!" Gu Tianyou insisted on his opinion. "I refuse to believe that I can't get the loan if I don't get married!"

"Hmph, let me make this clear to you. No bank will lend money to the Gu family until you sort out your messy emotional issues. I've already found out about this for you."

Old Master Gu issued an ultimatum.

Gu Tianyou lowered his head slightly, his profile cold and hard, shrouded in shadow.

"Don't just stand there, hurry up and go in!" When Grandpa Gu saw Uncle Wang coming over, he was helped into the banquet hall by Uncle Wang.

After seeing that Old Master Gu had left, Ye Yingying carefully walked to Gu Tianyou's side and whispered:

“Brother Tianyou, I heard what Grandpa said. It’s okay. If you don’t want to, I won’t force you to marry me. As long as I can be by your side, my role doesn’t matter.”
