I Became Super Rich After Resigning-Chapter 245 - : Let Lele Be My Daughter-in-law

Chapter 245: Chapter 245: Let Lele Be My Daughter-in-law

Zhong Xiaoyi stood up and said, “Shall I let Special Assistant Wang come in?”

Gu Hanchen replied, “No need, I can handle it myself.”

After Zhong Xiaoyi stepped out of the bathroom, she heard the sound of water running inside. Her brows furrowed tightly; Gu Hanchen’s wounds shouldn’t come into contact with water.

After sending a message to wish Gu Nuan a happy honeymoon, Zhong Xiaoyi looked over at the little rabbit beside her.

She reached out to stroke the rabbit’s ears, feeding it with rabbit food.

It was a while before she heard Gu Hanchen calling her from the bathroom, and only then did Zhong Xiaoyi enter and help Gu Hanchen out, and also contacted a doctor to come and change his bandages.

Late into the night, Zhong Xiaoyi slept on the companion bed next to Gu Hanchen.

Gu Hanchen gazed at the figure sleeping on the companion bed, his eyes resting on Zhong Xiaoyi’s snowy white neck, and quickly averted his gaze.

…

During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, Gu Hanchen was also able to be discharged from the hospital.

Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyuan went to the hospital early in the morning to pick up Gu Hanchen.

Though Gu Hanchen was discharged from the hospital, he still couldn’t do without a wheelchair. Sitting in the wheelchair, he saw Yuan Xi holding a child and asked, “Are you planning to take the kids back to Jiang City?”

Yuan Xi nodded and said, “Yeah, the kids haven’t been to Jiang City yet. I want to take them to see the place where I grew up.”

Gu Hanchen glanced at Lele, who Huo Shiyuan was holding, dressed in a little floral dress, and reached out, “Let me hold my goddaughter.”

Huo Shiyuan asked, “Since when did Lele become your goddaughter? Xiao Xi, have you agreed to this?”

Yuan Xi shook her head, “Nope, if Lele is going to acknowledge someone as a godfather, it should be Shitou first; it’s not Gu Hanchen’s turn to be her godfather.”

Gu Hanchen insisted, “Why isn’t she my goddaughter? Come on, hand her to me.”

Huo Shiyuan showed no intention of letting Gu Hanchen hold Lele.

Gu Hanchen scoffed coldly, “Stingy. Fine, if you won’t let me hold her, I’ll have my own.”

Yuan Xi looked at Gu Hanchen and asked, “How are you going to have your own? Surely technology hasn’t advanced enough for you to have children, right?”

Gu Hanchen replied, “Are you really that dumb three years after being pregnant? Can’t I find a woman to have my children?”

Yuan Xi challenged, “Where will you find a woman?”

Gu Hanchen said, “Is finding a woman that hard? My mom has prepared dozens of blind date candidates for me. As soon as I return to Jiang City, I can start blind dating and get married. Who knows, maybe by next year I could have a child. If you won’t let her be my goddaughter, I’ll just have a son to later marry Lele, and then she can call me dad!”

Huo Shiyuan glanced at Gu Hanchen coldly, holding little Lele tightly, and said, “Gu Hanchen, you’re dreaming!”

Yuan Xi chuckled at Huo Shiyuan, “Ignore him. Not only will he not become a dad within a year, but he also won’t manage it even in the next four or five years.”

Having served as Gu Hanchen’s secretary for several years, Yuan Xi was not oblivious to Gu Hanchen’s pickiness.

It was true that Gu Hanchen had a few girlfriends, but each time the relationship would not last more than two or three months. Many a Jiang City night did introduce him to several beautiful women, but the flings would fizzle out in just a few days.

Gu Hanchen was extremely selective when it came to choosing a partner. The first requirement was beauty; he expected the kind of beauty typical of a top female celebrity, and it had to be natural, not the result of cosmetic surgery.

Additionally, prospective partners had to have outstanding family backgrounds, conversation skills, and education. And they couldn’t be like Chu Yan—haughty, untouchable heiresses. He wanted someone from a top family background who was gentle, considerate, and clingy like a lovestruck maiden.

But when it came to the daughters of wealthy families in Jiang City, they were either haughty like Chu Yan and Yu Xiaoxiao or like Fu Qin and Gu Nuan—main characters of their own lives, with their own careers. How could they potentially be gentle, considerate, and clingy towards a man?

Wanting a blend of family background, education, gentleness, and top-notch beauty — Gu Hanchen might as well be dreaming.

Listening to Yuan Xi, Gu Hanchen said, “Look down on me, do you? If by the end of next year I become a dad, you’ll have to agree to Mi Chen’s car production! And get Shixi to invest a hundred billion in Mi Chen’s car production.”

Yuan Xi replied, “Why should I bet with you?”

Gu Hanchen answered, “If I don’t become a dad by the end of next year, I won’t make Lele call me dad. Instead, I will acknowledge her as my godmother!”

Huo Shiyuan agreed, “Deal.”

Yuan Xi looked up at Huo Shiyuan, “Gu Hanchen is being foolish, why are you humoring him?”

Huo Shiyuan replied, “What’s wrong with having one more god-grandchild?”

Yuan Xi was speechless.

It was the children’s first time traveling far from City A, and they were thrilled in the car, quiet and well-behaved, without even the need for pacifiers to soothe them.

Yuan Xi had been afraid that the two babies would be uncomfortable in their car seats for the first time, but to her surprise, they took to them quite well.

Xiao Shihuo didn’t stay put in his safety seat, one moment touching Little Lele’s hand, another moment touching An An’s hand.

Huo Shiyan frowned at Xiao Shihuo, speaking sternly, “We’re on the highway, go back to your seat and sit properly.”

“I don’t want to? I want to play with An’an and Lele.”

Yuan Xi gently spoke to Xiao Shihuo, “Huohuo, you’re An’an and Lele’s little uncle, you should set a good example for Lele and An’an, shouldn’t you? You’re going to be a first-grader soon, and if An’an and Lele see you not sitting in your safety seat, they’ll learn bad habits from you.”

Upon hearing Yuan Xi’s words, Xiao Shihuo obediently climbed into the safety seat and buckled himself in.

When they reached Jiang City, it was just around noon.

Yuan Xi first took the two children and Xiao Shihuo to visit Grandpa Liang and Granny Liang.

Granny Liang handed red envelopes to the children, saying, “This is a little token for Lele and An’an coming to visit.”

“Thank you,” Yuan Xi did not decline the elders’ kindness.

Liang Hao had matured a lot after not seeing them for several months.

After lunch, Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyan took the two children back to the Chu Family.

When Yang Ying and Chu Qing saw Yuan Xi bringing the two kids over, they quickly went to take them into their arms.

Looking at Lele, Yang Ying sighed softly, with tears immediately falling, “Xinxin, you were about the same age as Lele when you left your mother.”

Yuan Xi didn’t say anything as she looked at Lele in Yang Ying’s arms.

Chu Qing patted Yang Ying on the shoulder, saying, “It’s all in the past.”

Yang Ying wiped her tears with the back of her hand, “Yes, it’s all past, and now that you’re back, it’s good, it’s good that you’re back.”

Lele smiled at Yang Ying, who was holding her, and Yang Ying held Lele very tightly with delight.

Xiao Shihuo tugged Yuan Xi’s hand, saying, “Sister, let’s go find Yingying.”

Yuan Xi smiled helplessly and turned to Yang Ying, “Mom, we’re going to make a trip to the Gu Family.”

“Okay.”

Yuan Xi took Lele back from Yang Ying’s arms and, along with Xiao Shihuo, headed to the nearby Gu Family.

Today Gu Hanchen was being discharged from the hospital, and the Gu Family was quite lively with many of the Gu Family relatives and friends coming to visit.

When Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyan arrived at the Gu Mansion, the area outside was packed with cars belonging to visitors for Gu Hanchen.

Their car drove into the Gu Family compound.

Little Guying was already waiting at the door, “Uncle Huohuo!”

Xiao Shihuo got out of the car and said, “Yingying!”

Mrs. Gu also came out to greet them and saw Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyan holding the two children as they alighted from the car.

Mrs. Gu quickly approached Yuan Xi and asked, looking at the child in her arms, “Is this your older or younger sibling?”

Yuan Xi smiled faintly, “She is the older sister, Lele.”

Mrs. Gu asked, “May I hold her? She is really beautiful, she’s sure to be a great beauty when she grows up.”

Yuan Xi chuckled, “Yingying is also very beautiful. I’ll be satisfied if Lele grows up to be as cute and pretty as Yingying.”

Mrs. Gu said, “Time really flies; it feels like I just heard the news of your pregnancy, and now the child is already this big. My rebellious son still doesn’t know when he’ll have kids… Sigh!”

“Aunt Gu, I’ve heard that Mr. Gu was discharged, so I took the liberty of coming to visit.”

Yuan Xi turned around to a voice and saw a young girl with delicate makeup, Mi Chen’s newly signed spokesperson Yan Ke; strangely, Yan Ke didn’t look as attractive in person as she did on screen.

Mrs. Gu, seeing Yan Ke, nodded approvingly and said, “He’s inside.”

Yan Ke, seeing Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyan by her side, sweetly smiled, “President Huo, Mrs. Huo.”

Yuan Xi smiled lightly, “You can just call me Yuan Xi.”

Indeed, Yuan Xi didn’t mind being called Mrs. Huo; in the circles of A City, many called her Mrs. Huo, and she wasn’t so concerned about a title.

However, Yuan Xi didn’t wish for people related to the workplace to call her Mrs. Huo.

As Mi Chen’s spokesperson for Forest Pursuit, Yan Ke could call her Chairman Yuan, Yuan Xi, or Sister Yuan, which Yuan Xi felt might be more appropriate than Mrs. Huo.
