She went to the wrong table on a blind date and ended up getting married to a billionaire CEO.

Gu Tingyu quickly arranged for Su Mairou to meet his mother. The decision not to hold a ceremony was largely because Gu Tingyu wanted to reserve this sacred moment for his true love.

Besides, since it's destined to be a collaboration, I don't want to cause any trouble or inconvenience to the other party's life.

A marriage certificate is mandatory because it's too easy to be caught. Without a wedding ceremony and a marriage certificate, the whole thing is hard to make convincing.

If she is not a legitimate wife, the other party will have countless tricks up their sleeve.

Gu Tingyu was too lazy to get entangled with these people.

Gu Tingyu knew that Su Maiqi's family treated him as their real son-in-law and were unaware that this was a transaction. Therefore, he still had to observe the proper etiquette.

This way, Su Maiqi can better immerse herself in the role and avoid any unforeseen complications.

Moreover, Gu Tingyu didn't dislike Su Maiqi's family. He felt they were all pure, simple, and sincere people who didn't overly value material things, making them easy to get along with.

Gu Tingyu was confident that his mother would also enjoy spending time with them.

Over the years, Lin Jinyu has felt out of place in the Gu family. Apart from being close to the old man, she keeps her distance from her brother and sister-in-law, as well as her husband's older sister.

People gossiped behind her back, saying that Lin Jinyu was opportunistic, only currying favor with those who were useful, and that her closeness with the old man was for ulterior motives, wanting her son to inherit the family business and become the head of the Gu family.

Gu Tingyu knew in his heart that Lin Jinyu genuinely wanted to be close to the old man. She enjoyed spending time with her grandfather.

Grandpa loved Dad the most. He helped Mom get married to Dad without any trouble.

Of course, this indirectly led to later regrets. Although Gu Tianze gradually developed feelings for his wife after they got married, and their relationship remained good.

In the end, however, Gu Tingyu died because he was trying to see his first love one last time.

Lin Jinyu sometimes felt that this seemingly fateful story was too dramatic. If, if she had known that marrying her would lead to Gu Tianze's early death, Lin Jinyu would have preferred that they never had this marriage and that she could have had a peaceful ending with her first love.

But there are no "what ifs." From her own perspective, she never regretted having such a marriage with Gu Tianze. Although he left early, leaving her and her child as a widow, life in the Gu family had not been easy over the years.

But at least she had no regrets in her life. She married the man she had fallen for since she was a girl, and in the end, she won his heart.

She will always cherish the years they spent together.

There was a subtle understanding between Lin Jinyu and the old man. Gu Tianze was their shared secret.

They never talked about Gu Tianze, but every moment they spent together was filled with memories of him.

When the weather is sunny, Lin Jinyu would accompany the old man for a walk in the garden.

Sometimes I play Go indoors with music playing.

Occasionally, Lin Jinyu would personally cook a dish called "Secret Realm of Time" for the old man.

These are all things that Gu Tianze likes.

They did these things together, hardly speaking, but a quiet, warm river flowed through their hearts, a river of memories of all the time they had spent with Gu Tianze.

That gentle and refined man.

Gu Tingyu knew that his mother was actually a very rich person. She liked design and planting, and even in lonely times, she could still bloom her own flowers.

But Mom is 50 years old now, and she deserves to enjoy some relaxing family time and the happiness of an ordinary woman.

He believed that his mother would also like Duoduo, with her innocent curiosity, enthusiasm, and purity that comes with new life.

In conclusion, I believe everyone will benefit from this meeting.

The meeting was arranged at the Genting Hotel, which is also owned by the Gu family. However, compared to the Emerald Pearl Hotel, it was much more affordable.

Although it's a high-end hotel, it's still affordable for the average person. More importantly, Genting Hotel is renowned for its cuisine.

This is a great place to host a dinner party.

Su Mairou was surprised to find Lin Jinyu already waiting inside when Su Maiqi led her and Duoduo in; Lin Jinyu greeted them warmly as soon as they entered.

The last time we met was at my mother's funeral. Lin's mother was wearing a black cheongsam and almost no makeup. After the ceremony, she hugged and comforted Su Maiqi before leaving.

Although they didn't greet or talk, she had a good impression of Lin's mother; she was a very gentle woman with a kind face.

Today, Lin Jinyu wore a gold cheongsam, not the kind of dazzling bright gold, but a soft gold with a touch of warmth, like the golden glow flowing under the setting sun, warm yet noble.

The color of the cheongsam subtly changes with the movement of light, sometimes resembling delicate silk, and sometimes like flowing liquid metal, possessing a shimmering beauty. On each cuff of the garment, a flying phoenix is ​​embroidered, and with the movement of the arm, it feels as if the phoenixes are also taking flight.

Her face was full of smiles, and her words were as gentle as a spring breeze: "These are Mai Rou and Duo Duo. I've often heard Ting Yu mention you. I'm so glad to finally meet you. You're exactly as I imagined."

Lin Jinyu brought gifts for the two of them. For Su Mairou, it was a jade bracelet. Upon opening the wooden box, a jade bracelet lay on a silk lining.

Although Su Mairou didn't understand, she could tell that it was expensive. Its purity and luster were so captivating that they calmed one's heart at first glance.

The bracelet's surface is as smooth as a mirror, without a single flaw; its texture is delicate and warm, exuding a faint oily luster, as if one can feel the weight and warmth of the earth from it.

Its green is not the kind of bright, dazzling green, but rather a deep and restrained green, like a pool of emerald green water, quietly flowing with the tranquility of time.

Seeing that Su Mairou wanted to refuse, Lin Jinyu picked up the bracelet and put it on her wrist.

"This jade bracelet was prepared by Tingyu's father when he was alive, and was originally intended to be left to his daughter; his father passed away early, and I never had the chance to have a daughter."

You're Maggie's older sister, so I'll treat you like my daughter from now on. There's also a bracelet I prepared for my daughter-in-law; I've already given it to Maggie.

These two bracelets are a pair, this one will fit you perfectly.

Seeing that Gu Tingyu and her sister both gestured for her to accept the gift, Su Mairou did not refuse any further.

The gift for Duoduo was an exquisite hair clip; the center of the hair clip featured a pink diamond surrounded by a circle of light feathers, each feather hand-wrapped from fine gold threads, mimicking the lightness and softness of natural feathers.

Upon seeing this hair clip, Su Maiqi was stunned, as if struck by lightning. This is "Feather Dream Crystal Spirit," a work by MISS Y!

But how could that be? This is a custom-made item with your real name on it; it's not something you can just buy with money.

If it's true, it's far too expensive to give to a child!

But giving a fake item as a gift... that's not exactly the style of a stay-at-home mom.
