My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce

Chapter 938: Chapter 938: She is too stupid, should be ten billion Chapter 938: Chapter 938: She is too stupid, should be ten billion Hou Jinhua listened, somewhat dazed, and it took her a while to finally understand!

Perhaps Gu Guotai, after all his scheming to get Qiao Yin to return as the Third Miss of the Gu Family, was not out of affection for his granddaughter, nor because he valued the Gu family bloodline. He simply wanted Qiao Yin to sincerely and earnestly treat his leg!

To heal his leg, he would make any concession. He even offered Qiao Yin a compensation of one billion without blinking an eye, and he even promised her a share of the Gu Family’s wealth and stocks in Guotai Group!

For someone of Gu Guotai’s age, money no longer held much significance. No matter how much money he had, he couldn’t stand up and walk again, nor could he live a healthy and long life!

For Gu Guotai, using one or two billion from the Gu Family’s hundreds of billions in assets to buy out Qiao Yin was nothing to grieve over, and giving her the title of the Third Lady of the Gu Family meant even less.

Hou Jinhua even thought now that Qiao Yin was too foolish. For one billion and a few nebulous promises, she obediently returned to the Gu Family to treat Gu Guotai anew.

She should have taken the opportunity to demand hundreds of billions directly from Gu Guotai—he would surely have agreed for the sake of his leg. One billion was far too little!

Indeed, she was an uncultivated country bumpkin; one billion was probably the limit of her comprehension. She probably hadn’t seen one billion before in her life, had she? Suddenly getting so much money, and she’s really going to be the good granddaughter to Gu Guotai. What a natural-born lowlife she is!

While Hou Jinhua cursed Qiao Yin inwardly, she turned to Gu Guotai, “I could never go from being enemies to friends with Qiao Yin, I don’t have your magnanimity, Old Man. I just can’t stand Qiao Yin, and I will not agree to her returning to the Gu Family, much less acknowledge her as my daughter! I will make her bear the stigma of being an illegitimate daughter for life. I will not compromise!”

With that, she turned and walked out, ignoring Gu Chengqiao’s calls from behind.

Watching her storm out, Gu Chengqiao turned back to ask Gu Guotai, “Dad, what do we do now? Jinhua simply won’t listen to us, she’s as self-willed as ever, utterly disregarding the bigger picture.”

Gu Guotai, however, was calm, “Isn’t her face burned? Then let her stay at home to recover for the time being. When she’s ready to consider the bigger picture, she can go out again.”

Gu Chengqiao immediately understood that he intended to confine Hou Jinhua at home, preventing her from speaking out of turn and damaging the Gu family’s reputation.

He was a bit worried, “Even if I assign someone to watch her, I’m afraid they can’t keep up. With her temper, I’m afraid the bodyguards won’t be able to stop her if she insists on going out.”

“Then let Ranmo stop filming for a while and focus on staying home with her mother. She’s always wanted to be an actress and has always cared a lot about her reputation. Having her watch over her mother should prevent any trouble.”

Gu Chengqiao knew that the old man had never liked his second daughter pursuing acting, and because of that, he especially disliked Gu Ranmo.

However, his proposal was surprisingly effective now, because Gu Ranmo, being in the entertainment circle, cared about negative news more than anyone.

“Yes, you’ve thought it through, Momo wouldn’t want the family’s issue with the illegitimate daughter to leak, and she would persuade Jinhua too. Having her accompany Jinhua couldn’t be better.”

Gu Guotai nodded, then asked, “How are things going with Xuanxuan’s marriage to the Lu Family?”

“Lu Mingzhen really likes Xuanxuan, and he has already said that the future daughter-in-law of the Lu Family will only be Xuanxuan, no one else. But…”

“But what?”

“But Lu Lingche seems completely uninterested in marriage. When I took Xuanxuan to visit the Lu Family, he didn’t even show up.”

“I’ve heard that the young man from the Lu family has never been too interested in women, which isn’t a bad thing. As long as he concentrates on the family and corporation, being too interested in women can lead to problems. It’s still Lu Mingzhen who calls the shots in the Lu Family, and Lu Lingche doesn’t have the final say in whom he marries.”

Gu Chengqiao suspected his father was making an insinuation about him, but he actually agreed that Lu Lingche’s lack of interest in women was a good thing. If he were a playboy, there would be countless troubles to deal with once his daughter married him.

He himself could be frivolous, and his son could fool around with women and neglect proper business without issue, but he must pick a proper, not frivolous, son-in-law.
