Chapter 289: Chapter 289: She is My Wife (2)

"I’ve said before, men age well, unlike women, who look old even when they’re young. Plus, he owns a vineyard overseas, selling red wine. His wine estates and coffee beans are known worldwide."

Gu’s mother was taken aback, "What did you say? Isn’t he a company boss?"

"What company boss? Just a small company’s boss. Do you think someone like that is good enough for your family’s Gu Nuan?" Qiu Sangu knew well about Gu Nuan’s lofty attitude.

Just considering how good Gu Nuan was at making money, Qiu Sangu felt that ordinary men weren’t worthy of her.

"You said he’s had a wife before, and children too," Gu’s mother believed firmly that a man like a secondhand car, regardless of what anyone said, shouldn’t be considered.

"That’s because you don’t know the full story," Qiu Sangu said, "Mr. Zhuang is actually a very devoted man. His previous wife, who passed away, was an old classmate of his. He might have been a little fond of this female classmate in the past. Unfortunately, she got involved with a bad man, had a child, and that man wasn’t going to marry her. Mr. Zhuang then took in this classmate and her unborn child. To give the child a legal identity, they had a sham marriage."

Gu’s mother was stunned, "Are you telling the truth or making this up? It sounds like something out of a Korean drama."

Qiu Sangu laughed, "I didn’t know you watched Korean dramas."

"Why wouldn’t I? They’re all over the TV," Gu’s mother said grumpily, confident that she wasn’t out of touch.

"Then I’ll continue," Qiu Sangu said, "Mr. Zhuang’s wife died in childbirth. She left behind a child, who’s almost twelve years old now and is raised by her grandmother. Mr. Zhuang gives the elderly woman and the child some money each year. He has actually been living alone, leading a clean life, doesn’t smoke or drink, and occasionally plays the piano."

When Gu’s mother heard he played the piano, it seemed a world away from what she had imagined, "Our family can’t even afford a piano, we haven’t even touched one. Are you sure he can get along with our Nuannuan?"

"Whether they get along, that’s up to them. Have Nuannuan meet him for a coffee. The security is good in the big city, and he is a well-known businessman in social circles, a true gentleman. He wouldn’t do anything inappropriate to Nuannuan. Why not meet and have him buy her a coffee? Nuannuan just had a breakup, right? It might be good for a man to cheer her up."

Gu’s mother was somewhat tempted. Mainly because it seemed like Mr. Zhuang was genuinely a decent person. After he passed her the first time, he didn’t badger her but drove away in his BMW.

If someone can afford such an expensive sports car, do they need to deceitfully cling to the Gu Family?

Gu’s mother knew well that her daughter wasn’t particularly attractive. It’s somewhat indescribable for a man to be interested in Gu Nuan just for her looks.

Considering that her daughter had been ill, Gu’s mother wasn’t planning to reveal this to Qiu Sangu just yet.

If things were to get serious with a man, having an ill daughter would always leave a discounted impression. Nobody wants to marry someone who is often sick.

Gu’s mother was truly calculating carefully for her daughter, especially thinking about how Wa Zicong had played her daughter for nearly ten years, the more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

After spending a night at Qiu Sangu’s house, Gu’s mother received a call from Su Yixia.

Su Yixia told Gu’s mother that her own brother was a doctor responsible for Gu Nuan’s treatment. Today, Su Yide happened to be free and, knowing that Gu’s mother was visiting and that she was his sister’s best friend, decided to help by giving her a ride.
