Chapter 38 The Escape Route Left by Parents and Son
……
In Beijing, at the Lu family villa, Lu Linglong and several members of the Lu family troupe gathered together.
A small barbecue grill had been set up in the garden at some point, and several young people were drinking and grilling skewers while laughing and joking.
"You didn't answer your call, Brother Gao?" A dozen or so empty wine bottles were placed not far away. Lu Linglong's small face was flushed as she stared at Zhi Jinhua with a grin.
"No one answered." Zhi Jinhua shook her head, then chuckled.
"Giggle!!!"
"At this point, Brother Gao must be too ashamed to show his face. Linglong, you're really wicked."
Hehehe!!!
"Who told Brother Gao to try and act like an elder to me when he came to Beijing last time? I finally got a chance, so of course I had to mess with him." Chewing on a roasted green pepper, Lu Linglong looked like a child who had successfully pulled off a prank.
"I never imagined that Gao Dashang, that cultivation fanatic, would embarrass himself because of his wedding." Canglong's chubby face was so big that his eyes were almost invisible as he laughed.
Fortunately, he still had his glasses, proving that he wasn't a monster without eyes.
"I never expected Uncle Gao to use this method to get Brother Gao married." Zhi Jinhua pushed up her glasses, her eyes gleaming. "However... judging from Uncle Gao's words, he doesn't intend to hand over the Lile Group to Brother Gao, but to his daughter-in-law, and finally to his grandchildren."
Her smile faded, and Lu Linglong shrugged, revealing a look of sympathy.
"There's nothing we can do about it; Brother Gao is just a cultivation fanatic."
If Uncle Gao doesn't come up with a solution, either he'll remain single for life, or the Lile Group will go bankrupt sooner or later because Brother Gao doesn't take responsibility.
Uncle Gao was forced into this situation by circumstances.
"Even if it's his son, he doesn't want to watch his elders squander the business they've built up over half their lives."
Rather than handing over half a lifetime's work to Brother Gao, who doesn't care much about it anyway, it would be better to choose a good daughter-in-law and leave the family fortune to the grandchildren.
It's just a pity for Brother Gao...pfft...he inexplicably became the subject of gossip.
"That guy Gao Dashang, I've never seen him particularly interested in any girl from childhood to adulthood, but I never expected... now he can't help but be interested."
"Canglong, what are you laughing at? Even if Brother Gao is no good, he still has a huge family fortune to inherit."
Given his personality, that amount of money would last several lifetimes for most families.
What about you?
I heard that he actually went to work for a tomb raider for a little money.
When the topic of family assets came up, Bai Shixue's eyes welled up with tears of envy.
If it weren't for the fact that her major wasn't a perfect match, as a bit of a money-grubber, she would have wanted to ask Gao Li to recommend her.
It's just being a daughter-in-law!
The disciple of Old Master Lu comes from the Gao family, one of the four great families. Even if he is only a branch of the Gao family, he is still one of the four great families.
With his status as the sole heir to a fortune of hundreds of millions, his own status as a powerful young figure in the world of supernatural beings, and his somewhat handsome appearance, he's practically a golden bachelor.
Most importantly, he's a cultivation fanatic, and his family's assets will most likely be handed over to his wife to manage in the future.
As if he could see through Bai Shixue's little thoughts, Canglong didn't argue with her. Instead, he patted her on the shoulder with sympathy.
"You only realize how little you know when you need it most. Little newbie, choosing the wrong major is your biggest mistake."
"Hahaha!!!"
"Giggle giggle!!!"
In short, apart from Bai Shixue glaring angrily, the group burst into laughter again.
"Shut up and drink."
After glaring at her friends, Bai Shixue threw a bottle of beer at each of them.
We've known each other for years and know each other very well. We both know she's frugal and doesn't really like high-end things, so we can joke around without worry.
A gentleman loves money, but he acquires it in a proper way. Although Bai Shixue loves money, she has a strong bottom line; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to get along.
Canglong grinned mischievously, "I bet Old Gao is hiding somewhere right now, secretly wiping away his tears."
"Pshaw, only a fool would believe you." Several people gave him the middle finger.
Lu Linglong waved the wine bottle and said confidently, "I believe you if you say Brother Gao is upset, but I don't believe you're crying over this."
"Agreed."
With his sharp mind, Gao Dashang was able to quickly guess what Uncle Gao was thinking.
Given his personality, he'd only feel awkward for a couple of days at most.
Once things calm down, he might even secretly rejoice that he can focus on his cultivation instead of managing the company.” Zhi Jinhua pushed up her glasses and concluded, “So, if you want to tease Brother Gao about this, the best time is in the next few days.”
Once the hype dies down, he won't care if people try to make fun of him again.
He might even mock us in return, like a Versailles saga.
It has to be said that before the advent of cheat codes, the image of a lofty and ambitious cultivation fanatic had already taken deep root in people's hearts.
None of them ever imagined that the person who first suggested finding a wife was actually him.
However, Gao Li mishandled the situation and unintentionally escalated it, making him infamous in an unconventional way.
A few days later, after careful selection, Gao Li and his wife finally chose several suitable candidates to be their daughter-in-law.
A Harvard graduate, a Beijing University of Finance and Economics graduate, a Shanghai University of Finance and Economics graduate, a department manager, and a new employee who joined the company last year.
The five women, all high-achieving students with strong personalities, share a common trait: they are all career-oriented, strong women.
After investigating their family backgrounds, each one was impeccably clean, with harmonious parents and strict family education.
It is top-notch in terms of expertise, but it lacks a platform to showcase its capabilities.
"You've spoken with all five of them?"
Holding five photos and a resume, Gao's mother looked them over and casually asked a question.
The difference between the official photo and the photo on the resume is enormous.
Looking at the full-body photos of the group, she couldn't find anything to criticize about their appearance or education.
"I've already talked to a few girls and shown them photos of my son."
The two company employees only said they could try to get to know each other, while three graduates from prestigious universities came to the company to submit their resumes, their intentions were very clear.
As long as they are given the freedom to develop their talents, none of them would mind getting married.
"Isn't there anyone who's wholeheartedly devoted to marrying into our family and doesn't want to work?"
"Yes, our personalities didn't match, and we weren't capable enough. We were eliminated in the first round. Our resumes never even reached us." Gao Li couldn't help but laugh when he talked about this.
Anyone with eyes can see the purpose of this daughter-in-law selection, but unexpectedly, a gold-digging woman who doesn't understand herself actually came to the door.
They don't even consider whether they have the ability to support a group with a market value of tens of billions.
As for being pretty and young, those qualities are the least meaningful to a company.
If I really want to find someone young and beautiful, I won't spend money to go out and look for them. Why should I use my family fortune to play house with you?
In the Gao family's current situation, it's clear that character comes first, talent second, and beauty can only be ranked last.
Talented but lacking in character, it's uncertain who will own the company in the future.
Previously, because of his son's personality, he was destined to grow old alone. The wealth he had accumulated was enough for him to squander, and at worst, he could hand over the company to the family to manage in the future.
That won't work now, since the son is determined to carry on the family line.
With his personality, how could he possibly manage without his parents helping him take care of things?
At the very least, the minimum guarantee for choosing a daughter-in-law is that she cannot take over the company and then abandon her son.
Parents, parents, they worry endlessly about their children their whole lives.
The elderly couple didn't ask for a passionate, dramatic love; they only wanted to share joys and sorrows and treat each other with respect.
On this day, Gao Dashang was sitting on the hotel bed cultivating when his phone, which was charging on the bedside table, beeped several times.
I unplugged my phone, opened the green bubble app, and saw that it was a message from my own father, which immediately piqued my interest.
Upon opening, the first thing you see is a photo, and at the bottom is a message from the father.
"Your mother and I have carefully selected one of these five for you to consider."
If we get along well, we can get married anytime.
Or, you could try all five and find the one that best suits you.
...Gao Dashang: "I was asking you to find a suitable blind date to arrange, but Dad, are you really going to be chosen as a concubine?"
Instead of going through all that trouble, I'd rather hone my skills and research ranged attack methods.
Besides satisfying his sexual desires, the biggest reason he got married was to provide his parents in this world with a way out.
What if one day you travel through a portal to another world and never come back, leaving the elderly couple with no children or grandchildren to take care of them?
Having grandchildren at least gives the two of them something to look forward to in their old age.
As for himself, if he can come back, everything will be fine; if he can't, then his wife will have to suffer.
Fair trade, no deception of the young or old.
