Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.
Chapter 708 What the heck? I'm pregnant! Why didn't I know? You all knew?
Su Yu remained calm, feeling it was unrealistic. Her younger sister had always been against having a third child, and would never get pregnant at this age. "Mom, don't jump to conclusions. Let Guoguo ask her first. There might be some misunderstanding."
Guoguo nodded, completely agreeing with her husband. Xiaoxue was very opposed to having a third child, saying that she planned to live a happy life with Jinnan in the future, so she really wouldn't do anything rash. "Mom, let me call Xiaoxue and ask her."
"Okay, put it on speakerphone so I can hear what this girl is up to this time."
Seeing that the four children had almost finished eating, Su Yu started urging them to hurry up, mainly because he was afraid that Xiaoxue would talk nonsense. "You four go upstairs and review. I will check your homework later. You don't need to check it. Go upstairs and help your younger brother with his homework. If you get a question wrong, you will have to copy it 20 times."
These words completely extinguished Su Can's desire to play games. "............" Is there any justice in this world?
Can't he just forget everything he learned by the time he graduates?
"Go up." Su Yu urged again when he saw that his eldest son was still standing there.
Su Can's desire to hear gossip was extinguished by her father. Reluctantly, she led her three younger brothers upstairs to do their homework. When they reached the top of the stairs, she leaned over the handrail and looked towards the dining room, still looking even though she couldn't see anything.
He pricked up his ears, ready to listen intently, and even turned to his three younger brothers to be quiet.
Su Yu seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. "I'll give you one minute."
Caught red-handed, Su Can once again swaggered up the stairs, resignedly closed the door, and slammed it shut with a loud bang, as if to tell his father, "I'm in, are you satisfied?"
Hearing the door close, Han Guoguo picked up the phone and dialed Su Xue's number. The phone rang for a while before being answered. "Xiao Xue, what are you doing?"
Xiaoxue, who was sitting across from Lu Jinnan, had just finished eating the dinner that Lu Jinnan had brought her and was now lying in bed like a corpse. She had no idea that Guoguo was calling her on speakerphone in the restaurant. She immediately started to complain, "I almost died these past two days, Guoguo. I'm telling you, if tomorrow weren't the weekend, I would have to ask for leave."
"You're pregnant, so you're taking leave?" Su Xue had taken two days off in a row. Yao Yao said she was too tired and stayed up late at night, so Guo Guo assumed she was really watching TV dramas.
Guoguo's voice wasn't loud, it was very soft, and Su Xue didn't hear it all. Now it was Su Xue's turn to be confused. Who got pregnant again after taking two days off? Another family business deal? "What the heck? Who's pregnant? You're pregnant?"
Guoguo glanced at the other three people. Su Yu immediately knew that she wasn't pregnant. He wanted to signal Guoguo to turn off the speakerphone, but Su's mother wouldn't allow it. She wanted to hear why her daughter had taken leave to sleep and why she ate so much.
Guoguo held the phone in one hand, leaned closer to the microphone, and answered, "I said you're pregnant, not me."
She already has four children, why would she get pregnant again? If she gets pregnant again, she'll have to send Su Yu away and become a widow. Besides, she'll have four daughters-in-law in the future, how wonderful! None of them will be married off.
Su Xue was speechless. "What?! I'm pregnant? Why didn't I know? You all knew? Is the baby inside my belly? I feel like it was inserted from a distance."
After hearing this, it was Guoguo's turn to be surprised. "You're not pregnant? Didn't Auntie say you were?"
"Who, my mom or my mother-in-law?"
Guoguo was embarrassed; her brain must have been slept too hard. "Big sister, I call my mother-in-law 'Mom,' and I call your mother-in-law 'Auntie.' You're not pregnant, so why are you taking so much time off work and eating so much?"
"Damn it, this isn't Xiao Nan's fault! After I confessed to him that night, he made me a strawberry field all night, doing all sorts of things to me... I swear..."
Han Guoguo hurriedly pressed the microphone and turned off speakerphone. The last two sentences were not clearly heard by the audience, but they could roughly make sense of them.
Everyone felt a little awkward. Su's mother, used to it, didn't bother to say anything more, and simply said, "Where are the pigs? Are they being raised to sell for money? They're just wasting their time."
After finishing their conversation, the Su couple left the table, leaving Guoguo and Su Yu behind. Guoguo continued listening while Su Xue rambled on inside. Thirty minutes later, Han Guoguo was finally able to hang up the phone. In the end, it wasn't Guoguo who hung up; Su Yu took the phone from Guoguo's hand and turned it off.
Su Yu is now glad that he let the four children go upstairs early.
The next day, Ji Jiale parked his sports car in front of the Lu family villa early in the morning, turned off the engine, got out of the car, and then took a lot of gift boxes from the trunk to ring the doorbell.
The door was quickly opened, and it was the maid who opened it. "Young Master Ji."
Ji Jiale nodded politely, then called out to Lu's mother, who had been watching TV since early morning, "Grandma Lu, Grandpa Lu, Godfather."
Upon seeing Ji Jiale, Lu Jinnan immediately adopted an air of superiority, replying indifferently, "Yes, Yueyue is still upstairs."
"Okay, I'll wait a bit." Then she put the things she was carrying on the table. When Lu's mother saw this, she scolded her, "Why did you bring a gift when you came to pick up Yueyue? You can't bring gifts anymore. Just treat it like you're at home."
Ji Jiale responded, "Okay, I understand."
"He's getting more and more handsome. Yueyue has good taste." She liked him. No matter how she looked at him, Lu's mother found him pleasing to the eye. No wonder Xiaoxue always said that. He was indeed likable, and she was also worried about him. No wonder Xiaoxue was anxious.
Seeing his wife looking like a lovesick fool, Mr. Lu said to Mrs. Lu, "Go see if Yueyue has come downstairs yet, and tell Yueyue that Lele is downstairs."
"Okay, I'll go take a look." Mother Lu happily ran upstairs.
Lu Jinnan and his father stood up at the same time. Lu's father was more sensible and worried that it would be awkward for the young couple to have too many people around. "Let's go. We have a meeting this morning, Lele. We'll be leaving now."
Ji Jiale nodded, "Yes, goodbye Grandpa Lu."
Lu Jinnan glanced at his handsome future son-in-law, sighed, and finally said, "Take good care of Yueyue."
"Um."
A short while later, Lu Yiyue came downstairs dressed in a formal suit. She had made herself a black business suit. When she saw Ji Jiale standing downstairs watching her, she smiled beautifully and ran down the stairs faster.
The two stood facing each other. Ji Jiale was a head and a half taller than Lu Yiyue. He took the bag from her shoulder and said, "Goodbye, Grandma Lu."
Lu's mother feigned displeasure and said, "Why call me Grandma Lu? Just call me Grandma from now on."
Ji Jiale: "Okay, sure."
Before leaving, Lu's mother told the two to have a good talk and said that they should try to get married next year. Ji Jiale just nodded and smiled without explaining, because this was not something he could decide; it required his godfather's approval.
In the car, Ji Jiale asked warmly, "Have you had breakfast?"
"Yes, I ate. Have you eaten?" She had eaten before going to change her clothes.
Ji Jiale reported his schedule, still a little worried about Yueyue's first day at the company. "I've eaten too. If you encounter any problems at work, just call me. I'll be at the clothing company this morning and at the Ji Group this afternoon."
Lu Yiyue listened attentively and nodded obediently. "Don't worry, I can take care of myself. There's something else I'd like to discuss with you. Can we pretend we don't know each other at the company?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiale quickly turned to look at her, then quickly turned back to look ahead, his thin lips parting as he wondered, "Do you want to manage it yourself?"
"Well, that's fine. Otherwise, if I announce who I am as soon as I walk in, no one will work together with me. I won't understand the situation on the ground, and I won't be able to integrate with everyone. The design team needs everyone to work together. If there are dissenting voices, we can't work together in the same direction, and the designs may lack soul."
"It will be tough." Ji Jiale originally had a meeting in the morning, but considering that Yueyue was joining the design department that morning, she planned to hold a meeting to introduce herself in person, so that Yueyue would not suffer any grievances in the future.
As a result, Yueyue didn't want him to get involved. He had always known that beneath her gentleness lay stubbornness and resilience. "Well, if you find it hard, just tell me. Even if your identity is revealed, no one can say anything about you."
He can protect her.
"Let's not announce it yet. I've never worked in a professional company before. At most, I've just visited my dad's company. If I want to help you manage, I have to start from the bottom. It's hard for a newbie with no work experience to gain respect. Also, today I went to work at the company as a regular designer intern. I want to take it one step at a time, is that okay?"
She is a newcomer. Although she has won awards, she doesn't know how to manage. She studied design in college and needs to learn slowly. She has enrolled in management courses and is working hard to catch up with Lele and fight alongside her.
Like Aunt Xixi, she can help Uncle Han manage the company. She may not be as outstanding as Aunt Feng and Aunt Nana, but she will strive to become better.
Seeing how serious she was, Ji Jiale finally agreed, "I'll listen to you. If you find it too difficult, then go ahead and make it public."
"Don't underestimate me, don't think I can't do it." Suddenly she raised her head, full of fighting spirit.
Ji Jiale found her particularly adorable, reached out and touched the top of her head, replying with a smile, "I believe you."
When the car arrived at the company, the screens on the towering building were playing GG videos, and the brand name had changed to only-ly, as was the sign above the main entrance.
Seeing that she stood still and didn't move, I said, "Didn't I tell you last time that we were going to change the company's name?"
Besides, my godfather said that having the same name as sanitary napkins is indeed not a good thing.
At the time, I didn't think too much about it. I just wanted to engrave "only" on the building, to announce to the world that Lu Yiyue was his only one, the only one he could add to the spouse section of his household registration, the only one he, Ji Jiale, would ever love, and the one he, Ji Jiale, had always wanted to protect...
After taking the private elevator up, Ji Jiale separated from Lu Yiyue and had his secretary take her to complete the onboarding process, allowing her to enter as an ordinary employee and follow the normal procedures. Since she wanted to try, he would let her have her way.
Lu Yiyue didn't send any messages to Ji Jiale until 10:30 in the morning. There was an emergency meeting coming up at the Ji Group, so Ji Jiale could only send her a message: Are you getting used to it?
Lu Yiyue has a gentle and easy-going personality, and she is also easy to talk to. In addition, she doesn't talk much, so she doesn't stand out when she goes in, and naturally no one will stare at her. Besides, she has an internship badge around her neck.
Lu Yiyue: It's great. I've met a few colleagues, all of whom are recent graduates.
Ji Jiale: I need to go to the Ji family. Call me if you need anything, or find Uncle Lin.
Since the clothing company opened, Lin Yuan was transferred here. Tang Junyan was already capable of handling things on his own. Lin Yuan had suggested leaving, but Tang Junyan valued relationships and insisted on keeping him, even offering him two percent of the company's shares, which Lin Yuan declined.
Lu Yiyue: Okay, I understand.
Then Ji Jiale sent Lin Yuan's contact information to Lu Yiyue, still feeling a little uneasy.
Lu Yiyue told him to go to work without worry and to do whatever he needed to do; she wasn't a three-year-old anymore.
