The handsome guy next door loves to flirt.

"Achi, where's Yunxiang? Why didn't you let him come back on a day like this!" Gu Jianguo was very displeased when he saw that he didn't see the only grandson of the Gu family behind the group.

Seeing that the old man was about to get angry, Gu Chi immediately explained, "Dad, A-Xiang caught a cold yesterday and had a slight fever last night. The doctor told him to rest at home, so we didn't let him come along."

Gu Jianguo was somewhat dissatisfied with Gu Chi's explanation, but ultimately, his grandson's health was more important. The child was frail and prone to illness, leaving Gu Jianguo feeling helpless. None of his grandchildren truly satisfied him; he wished Yun Shu were a boy.

Gu Jianguo didn't say anything more, and the group went to the ancestral hall together.

Yun Shu and the other two were already waiting there. The servants of the Gu family had already set out offerings and made prayers at the ancestral hall.

After the family finished offering incense and burning paper money, Gu Jianguo asked everyone to sit in the living room, as he had something to announce. Li Meng and Shufen exchanged glances, both understanding what the old man was about to say.

Once everyone had arrived, Gu Cheng and Gu Chi sat down, but Yun Shu, Yun Huan, and Yun Le didn't dare to sit. Instead, they stood behind them. The Gu family had always been very strict in their upbringing. Some old traditions had been preserved, especially in the old house.

"It's rare to see everyone here today. I've lived to this age, and I don't know when I'll be gone." He paused, looked at his sons and granddaughters below, and was disappointed that there were no grandsons. He sighed and continued, "While I'm still here, let's divide the Gu family's assets. I've already discussed the distribution of the assets with Gu Cheng. My suggestion is: divide the assets into three parts, one for Gu Cheng, another for Gu Chi, and the remaining part... for Yun Shu!"

As soon as Gu Jianguo finished speaking, Gu Chi immediately disagreed and objected: "Dad, my older brother and I both disagree. Yun Shu is a grandson. If Yun Shu has one, then Yun Huan, Yun Le, and my son A Xiang should also have one."

"This is what your grandmother discussed with me before she passed away. Why do we divide the family property this way? It's because of A-Cheng's future and the Gu family's reputation. Back then, Yun Shu was clearly a child of the Gu family, but she didn't dare to acknowledge it. To the outside world, she only dared to say that she was an adopted daughter taken in by the Gu family. In the future, Yun Shu will no longer be able to say that she is a child of the Gu family. Her identity cannot be restored, so we can only compensate her with the family property." Gu Jianguo glared at his youngest son, who was not very promising.

"Dad, that's true, but if we're going to compensate Yunshu, we should give her the share that belonged to our eldest brother! If we divide the family property like this, people will laugh at us."

“Dad, Achi is right. I’m willing to give Yunshu a share of my portion,” Gu Cheng replied. He had no choice but to say it now, otherwise Gu Chi might later think that he had asked Yunshu to seize the family fortune.

"I'm not dead yet! And you dare disobey me?" The old man finally lost his temper. After taking several deep breaths, he said, "You're all useless bastards, only thinking about your own little bit of family business. Ashu, come here!"

Their conversation stunned Yun Shu and the others. Yun Shu knew nothing about the division of the family property and never knew that Gu Jianguo would be so generous. Since she was entitled to a large share, she wondered if she had misheard or if the old man was losing his mind and was distributing the family property haphazardly.

Just as she was lost in thought, she suddenly heard the old man calling her. However, seeing that everyone looked unhappy and glaring at her angrily, with cold and sharp eyes like a sword, she suddenly snapped out of her restlessness. Regardless of anything else, she decided to explain her position to her grandfather first.

She walked to Gu Jianguo's side and said calmly, "Grandpa, I...I don't want the Gu family's property!" She had never coveted the Gu family's things, but occasionally when Aruo stood up for her, she would mention the Gu family's property.

"Don't rush to say no. This share of the family fortune I'm giving you comes with conditions. It's not something you can just take easily. Grandpa doesn't approve of Yunhuan and Yunle." Looking at his composed granddaughter and comparing her to the other two, Gu Jianguo shook his head repeatedly. It was a pity she was a girl, but even as a girl, as long as she was in the Gu family, she had to bear certain responsibilities. She couldn't choose or complain about refusing. So he continued, "The first son you have after you get married must belong to the Gu family!"

As soon as Gu Jianguo finished speaking, everyone except Gu Cheng stood there dumbfounded. What was going on? Did the old man know what he was doing?

Yun Shu was in the same boat. What did this property have to do with her child? And what was going on? She wasn't even married yet, so how come her son was being targeted?

"Children? I'm not even married yet, and I have children... Why should I give them to the Gu family? The Gu family doesn't even acknowledge me, how could they acknowledge my child? Grandpa, I don't agree, I absolutely disagree!" This is a complete joke. She hasn't even thought about marriage, yet she's already talking about children. The key is, no matter how you try to get her to agree, she wants to leave the Gu family, regardless of whether anyone will inherit the family business!

"You disagree? But it's not up to you!" After saying that, she looked at Gu Cheng and said, "Ah Cheng, you have no son, and Li Meng, you haven't given the Gu family a grandson either. Ashu's son will be the heir of my Gu family in the future. I've already chosen his name. The next generation of children will have the character 'Rong' in their names. Ashu's son will be named Gu Rongbai!" Her tone was firm and left no room for discussion.

Yun Shu found it hilarious; this was too bizarre! She wasn't even married yet, but she had already thought of a name for her son. Yun Shu said sarcastically, "Grandpa, what if I never get married, or I can't have a son even if I have a daughter, or my future in-laws don't agree? The one-child policy is very strict now; every family can only have one child. If you have more than one child, you'll be severely punished if you work in a public institution. You know that, Grandpa."

If she hadn't met Mingkun, she would never have wanted to get married, let alone have children. Even if she were to have a child, she wouldn't give it to the Gu family; she was leaving anyway, how could she leave her child to suffer in the Gu family? Besides, this wasn't the case in her previous life. Could it be that many things have changed because she was reborn?

"Ah Shu, you have no choice! You are a girl of the Gu family, that's an unchangeable fact! Grandpa has already planned for you. Give birth to one for the Gu family, and if you have another child, it will be registered in your own name, so you won't be fined. Or the child's household registration can be registered abroad later. Grandpa made this decision after careful consideration and planning all aspects. Use your son to exchange for a share of the Gu family's business. Ah Cheng and Ah Chi, now you know why I gave Yun Shu a share of the family property, right?" Gu Jianguo looked up at them coldly.
