The Foster Daughter’s Attraction

"Hai Tang? She's just the Hai family's foster daughter. I was only playing around with her. How could I possibly take her seriously? She can't even measure up to my status!" Upon hearing these words from Yu Heng's own mouth, Hai Tang finally realized how he truly saw her. She had liked this person for over twenty years. They had grown up together since childhood, with her always looking out for him, from running errands and doing homework for him to handling company affairs on his behalf. He had always accepted her kindness but pretended to be unaware of her feelings. Now, the words from his lips directly crushed Hai Tang's hopes. From that day on, Yu Heng's shadow completely disappeared. Even his friends around him were surprised. How could she let go so easily after following him for so long? At first, Yu Heng was nonchalant. In his eyes, Hai Tang's world revolved around him, and she wouldn't be able to survive without him. But as time went on and he waited, she never came back. When he started to panic and wanted to look for her, he realized that he couldn't find her, no matter how hard he looked. When they met again, his shadow was already entwined with someone else, and she had a radiant smile on her face. Yu Heng's reddened eyes were filled with tears as he asked the girl who used to belong to him, "Tangtang, I was wrong. Can we go back to the way things were?" Before the girl could speak, the man beside her stepped forward. His eyes filled with malice as he said, "I advise you to stay away from my wife."

Finally Enlightened

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

"Alright." Gu Yun smiled lightly when he heard that. After meeting his grandfather and mother later, this meeting with the parents would be considered officially complete.

Hai Tang felt that Gu Yun seemed very anxious.

They had rushed to register their marriage early in the morning, but in just one afternoon, they had achieved the goal of meeting the parents of both parties.

As expected of a businessman, he knew how to arrange his time.

In order to meet Gu Yun's elders, Hai Tang had specially chosen a long dress that looked gentle and demure.

Walking beside Gu Yun, she looked very compatible with him. The two of them were simply like a match made in heaven.

The butler would turn around from time to time and sigh in his heart. With this great beauty around, it was no wonder that no matter which family's young lady pursued Gu Yun in the past years, Gu Yun was unmoved.

"What are you laughing at?" Gu Yun asked curiously when he saw Hai Tang's curved eyes.

He felt that Hai Tang's demeanor on the way here was completely different from when she was in the Hai family.

Hai Tang shook her head. "Nothing. I just think you're amazing."

"What do you mean?" Gu Yun felt that Hai Tang's brainless praise of him was too strange.

Hai Tang just whispered, "Tell me directly. Is it because your family wants you to go on a blind date? You don't want to marry anyone else, so you chose to marry me? However, your performance was quite good. I almost believed what you said to Hai Yuan."

Because the housekeeper was right in front, Hai Tang's voice was not loud.

She gave herself a reasonable explanation. The purpose of Gu Yun marrying her was probably to avoid the marriage arrangements of his family.

"No." Gu Yun's voice was magnetic. He bent down slightly and leaned his head close to Hai Tang's ear, saying softly, "I just want to marry you."

Faced with Gu Yun's straightforward words of love, Hai Tang looked at him incredulously, then suddenly saw his smile as if he had succeeded.

"If you say that, I will take it seriously." Hai Tang's heart skipped a beat, but she pretended to joke casually.

Actually, she did not believe Gu Yun's words that much.

"Why not?" Gu Yun looked at Hai Tang aggrievedly again. He knew that Hai Tang had not completely accepted him and was still wary of him.

But on second thought, as long as Hai Tang no longer had any expectations for Yu Heng, it would be fine.

Hai Tang glanced at the messages sent by the HR manager on her phone.

He requested that Hai Tang must come to work at the company, even if it was to go through the normal resignation procedures. They were willing to give her a few days off and let her rest well for a few days.

Regarding this matter, she did not take it to heart. Once she made a decision, she would never go back on it.

However, the HR manager mentioned that she still had some projects that needed to be handed over. Indeed, it was not a good thing for her to choose to resign so simply and rudely.

Out of a sense of responsibility, Hai Tang felt that she could return to the company tomorrow to finish her work before leaving. It could be considered a good ending.

She threw her phone into her bag and walked through a courtyard with Gu Yun before entering the main courtyard.

As soon as she walked in, Hai Tang took another deep breath. She had to admit that she was really a little nervous at the moment.

She felt that it was impolite for her to visit after getting the marriage certificate first.

"Don't be nervous, people in my family... have always been very warm to people."

..

"Dad, don't be nervous. This brat finally knows how to bring his wife home."

Zhu Min said this, but her hand kept turning the jade bracelet in her hand.

In the morning, she received a call from Gu Yun's butler. He said that Gu Yun had brought his newlywed wife home and even registered their marriage.

This made her so excited that she got out of bed early in the morning and immediately rushed to Old Master Gu to tell him the good news.

However, who would have thought that Old Master Gu would not believe a single word and insisted that she was lying?

"Why would I be nervous? That kid was always so clueless before, so I thought there was something wrong with him. Now that he's back with a wife, I can't be happier. You've already taken out the gift your mother prepared for your granddaughter-in-law, right?"

"Don't worry!" Zhu Min chuckled. She had actually been preparing for many years. She even took out Hai Tang's photo from her phone. "You still don't know, right? It's not that our little brat doesn't understand. He has always liked this girl."
