I Help the Richest Man Spend Money to Prevent Disasters-Chapter 409

For the first time, a small smile appeared on Gu Ren’s calm face. He smiled helplessly and every inch of his gradually widening arc was filled with pure ecstacy.

Originally, he was extremely cautious, but he didn’t know if the upcoming marriage proposal made him too nervous for him to overlook such deviation.

Both he and Ye Zhi wanted to surprise each other, but they definitely didn’t expect it to coincide on the same day.

The people who were helping the Gu family also heard this and instantly started to hurry as they paced through the house.

With a crash, the flower pot that was situated not far away smashed to the ground, and in the next second, there was a crisp and piercing sound from the kitchen as a bowl shattered.

Gu Ren finally came back to his senses and asked everyone to calm down. Then, he asked Nie Jiqing to help stall Ye Zhi.

Nie Jiqing smiled sincerely—naturally, she was willing to help him with this task.

Gu Ren treated Ye Zhi well; that she could see from the interactions the couple had. Once again, Nie Jiqing was glad that Ye Zhi had met someone like Gu Ren. If there was something that she couldn’t take care of, Gu Ren would always make up for it.

Gu Ren and Ye Zhi supported and depended on each other, gradually becoming the most important person to one another.

Nie Jiqing only arrived at the Gu mansion, but she immediately drove away. Ye Zhi was still on the set, so she was one step ahead of her daughter as she drove to her filming site to pick her up.

Ye Zhi was completely unaware of the matter as she was still finishing the day’s filming, thinking that she would be able to go home to see her family later.

As soon as Ye Zhi finished filming, the assistant approached her to tell her that Nie Jiqing was here.

Ye Zhi felt that it was a little weird for her mom to be here.After all, she had just called Nie Jiqing that morning and told her that she would be going home today.

Ye Zhi suppressed her doubts and came to the lounge. When she opened the door, Nie Jiqing was already sitting on the sofa.

“Mom, why are you here?”

Seeing Ye Zhi coming in, Nie Jiqing’s eyes lit up. She was just about to laugh as her smile condensed on the corners of her mouth again before her eyes were a little astringent.

Ye Zhi looked thinner than the last time she saw her and her face seemed to be weak and pale.

As soon as Ye Zhi saw Nie Jiqing’s expression, she guessed what she was thinking. Ye Zhi immediately stepped forward, and before Nie Jiqing could speak, she acted coquettishly.

“Mom, don’t look at me like this. In fact, most of these are because of the makeup— I’m in good health.”

Ye Zhi hugged Nie Jiqing. Her voice was soft, trying to interrupt Nie Jiqing’s worried emotions as she kept relaying kind words in her ear, her choice of words being particularly sweet.

Nie Jiqing originally wanted to scare Ye Zhi by pretending to be angry with her, but she didn’t expect her daughter to pull a trick on her that quickly. Helpless against her charms, she couldn’t even get angry and immediately put her arms around her.

“Yea, all you know is how to trick me like this with sweet words. When you’re truly unwell, who am I to cry with? How am I supposed to tell your father and the elders of the Sheng family about it?”

As Nie Jiqing was chattering away and ranting somewhat playfully, Ye Zhi was also obediently answering and agreeing to everything she said.

Nie Jiqing knew that Ye Zhi’s current appearance was for the purpose of filming her current show. Fortunately, the filming process was about to end; otherwise she might not be able to control her desire to bring Ye Zhi home directly.
