Reborn as a Fake Heiress Marrying the Tycoon novel Chapter 1172

Chapter 1172: Su Shen’s Vision

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In any marriage, one party eventually has to give in—because if both insist on being strong-willed, the family is bound to fall apart.

Now, it appeared that Chen Yu had chosen to back down. And Gu Zi was genuinely happy for Sun Yi. After all, a harmonious family life could only boost one’s performance at work. If Sun Yi started raking in more profits thanks to a smoother home front, Gu Zi stood to benefit as well—what could be better?

Still, Gu Zi couldn’t stop thinking about the two men’s conversation she had overheard earlier.

"What were they talking about—something about a branch company?" she asked, turning toward Sun Yi with curiosity.

"Oh, that," Sun Yi said, casually. "Your dear husband, Su Shen, brought it up. He wants to open a branch in your hometown, Guangcheng City, focused entirely on electrical research and production. Nothing’s finalized yet—they still need to conduct a series of site evaluations and project assessments. But personally, I think it has huge potential. The country is pushing hard on domestic R&D and breaking through tech barriers. If this goes well, the company’s valuation could multiply several times over."

Now, Sun Yi wasn’t the type to interrupt business discussions between men—that was just basic etiquette. But she did know how to listen, how to absorb the critical pieces of information, the important bits that helped her keep her finger on the pulse. And she had to admit—Su Shen had far keener business instincts than her own husband ever did. Truth be told, Chen Yu had lucked out landing Su Shen as a partner.

Gu Zi nodded thoughtfully. "I agree, Sun Yi. I think the model could really work. If Su Shen’s company manages to develop the electrical components domestically—without relying on imports—it’ll drastically cut the cost of household appliances. More everyday families would finally be able to afford them. And if that happens, his company could very well become a pioneer in the industry."

In all honesty, Gu Zi was impressed—really impressed—by Su Shen’s foresight. To be thinking about this kind of thing at this stage... no wonder the man made serious money.

Throughout dinner, Gu Zi couldn’t stop mulling over Su Shen’s proposed venture. Her gaze kept drifting toward him, and this time, it wasn’t just her usual sidelong glance. No—tonight, there was something different in her eyes. Admiration. Genuine awe. That kind of look, bright and focused, didn’t go unnoticed.

Su Shen caught it, of course. He furrowed his brows slightly, puzzled, and asked her after the meal, "What’s going on with you tonight? You’ve been staring at me the entire time."

Gu Zi had just bitten into an apple. Startled by his sudden question, her eyes locked with his. She flushed a little but didn’t dodge. Instead, she told him outright, "I heard about your plan from Sun Yi. I think it’s brilliant. You’re incredibly forward-thinking."
