Chapter 321: Chapter 320 Ji Guangsheng Returns_1

Having reprimanded those two embarrassing fools, Gu Chen finally let out a sigh of relief.

He then glanced at Liu Lizhen, who was still kneeling on the ground and kowtowing out of fear, and Gu Chen couldn’t be bothered to pursue the matter any further.

Seeing that she seemed to have genuinely repented, he waved his hand dismissively.

"Alright, let this not happen again! If you dare to do this another time, don’t blame the people of the Gu Family for not showing mercy!"

Gu Chen glared at Liu Lizhen with a stern voice.

The two of them were scolded by Gu Chen in front of all the villagers and dared not show the slightest displeasure.

Gu Zhigang was very aware that Gu Chen was helping him out, and Liu Lizhen, next to him, looked embarrassed, nodding her head repeatedly in agreement.

After all, their combined money wasn’t even close to an insignificant hair from Gu Chen’s body.

If they truly angered their younger brother, Gu Zhigang even suspected that he could easily come up with three hundred thousand, not just thirty thousand.

Gu Chen then turned to the gathered villagers, and his tone softened as he spoke.

"Fellow villagers, regarding the embarrassing situation caused by my unworthy older brother and sister-in-law today, I apologize on their behalf. However, I need to clarify one thing. Gu Zhigang, my older brother, had been deceived by a pyramid scheme before. He is also a victim, and those scammers have already been brought to justice. As for the money on the ground, it is just compensation for my brother’s emotional distress."

Having said that, Gu Chen took out the verdict that he had brought with him.

He then showed it to the villagers, as he needed to clear his brother’s name. After all, the village was so small, and to live there, one’s reputation could not be tarnished!

The many villagers who had gathered around to watch the excitement were all amazed by the document.

Especially the figure of three hundred thousand written on it made their eyes greedily sparkle.

To be cheated once and receive so much money—if one could be cheated several times, wouldn’t that secure a worry-free life?

While the people thought this, they also vaguely knew that this was all thanks to Gu Chen’s help.

Otherwise, in everyday life, regardless of whether one was cheated or robbed, no one had ever been known to earn so much.

At that moment, their reverence for Gu Chen unconsciously grew even deeper.

...

Only after all the issues had been dealt with did Gu Chen finally drive back to his home in Haicheng.

As soon as he entered, he saw Ji Pianran on the phone, talking about something.

Gu Chen didn’t disturb her and quietly changed his shoes, then took his daughter to the room to play for a while.

After that, he took the groceries he had bought on the way and went to the kitchen to start cooking.

Before long, Ji Pianran couldn’t help but peek her head through the kitchen doorway, watching her husband, who was busily preparing a meal for them with focused attention.

A gentle smile appeared on her face, and she softly said to him,

"Gu Chen, dad just called—everything in Chuan City has stabilized now.

The goji berries you sent over sold incredibly well. They’re not only being used as a medicinal herb but have even been packaged as a high-end snack.

This time, just the profit from these goji berries is a hundred and fifty thousand."

Gu Chen was quite surprised to hear this; he had thought that they would max out at a hundred thousand at most.

It seemed that the profits from retail were indeed the largest.

But then he saw the radiant joy on Ji Pianran’s beautiful and delicate face.

Unable to resist, he pulled her into his embrace and said with a laugh,

"Speaking of which, this is all thanks to dad’s help and the Ji Family’s sales channels in Chuan City.

If it weren’t for these, no matter how hard I tried, I could never have sold so much.

Indeed, my wife, you are the angel sent by heaven to save me."

Ji Pianran’s cheeks flushed at his words, and she spoke with feigned annoyance,

"You’re just spouting nonsense to coax me, where am I anything like an angel?"

Seeing this, Gu Chen couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter.

Ji Pianran felt both sweet and shy at heart, and couldn’t resist lightly thumping his chest before she continued speaking.

"Dad said on the phone that he will arrive in Haicheng in an hour. Don’t forget to pick him up at the airport, okay?"

Gu Chen was momentarily stunned, apparently not expecting his father-in-law to act so decisively.

They had only just talked about this matter on the phone a few days ago, and now he was almost off the plane.

Although there was no real need for any extraordinary preparations, Gu Chen still couldn’t help feeling a bit nervous.

Ji Pianran was always very clever, and seeing Gu Chen’s expression, she had already guessed his mood pretty accurately.

She couldn’t resist comforting him.

"Don’t be like that. My dad is actually a very nice person. Usually, he treats you, his son-in-law, even better than me.

This is just a simple meal; there won’t be any problems."

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen also couldn’t resist scratching his head, feeling that his wife was indeed right.

Plus, considering they already had a daughter together, there really wasn’t anything to be nervous about after all.

Afterward, they enjoyed a simple and warm lunch at home, and once everything was tidied up,

Gu Chen got in the car, taking Ji Pianran and their daughter Tang Tang, and headed toward the airport.

When they arrived, Ji Guangsheng’s plane had just landed.

Gu Chen got out of the car and hurried over, while Ji Pianran followed behind with their daughter Tang Tang in her arms.

The three of them walked up to the aircraft’s boarding stairs.

When Ji Guangsheng emerged from the plane, his eyes almost immediately landed on Ji Pianran, full of affection.

Seeing his father-in-law coming out, Gu Chen also greeted him with a smile.

"Dad~ you’re here."

Ji Guangsheng patted Gu Chen on the shoulder with a face full of contentment. At first,

he had not been satisfied with this farmer son-in-law, but now seeing that he had established a home in Haicheng in just a few months,

his impression of Gu Chen improved a great deal.

Moreover, the goji berries he had sent to Chuan City previously had helped establish a good reputation for the Ji Family in Chuan City’s medicinal market.

This made him even more satisfied with Gu Chen’s performance.

"Grandpa, grandpa~"

Upon seeing Ji Guangsheng, Tang Tang, in Ji Pianran’s arms, also got excited and started calling out.

Then she jumped down from Ji Pianran’s arms and toddled into Ji Guangsheng’s, acting coquettishly.

"Oh, my goodness, Tang Tang, my precious granddaughter, Grandpa has missed you so much."

Ji Guangsheng, seeing this little granddaughter who looked almost exactly like Ji Pianran as a child,

calling him in her sweet, glutinous voice, felt his heart melting away, watching Tang Tang with a beaming smile.

He thought his granddaughter was indeed the most well-behaved, cutest, and most lovable of all!

He then gently scooped up the delicately beautiful little girl into his arms.

Immediately after, he waved his hand behind him, and a member of the Ji Family’s retinue stepped forward,

handing Tang Tang the gift Ji Guangsheng had prepared for her in advance.
