Chapter 893: Power Is Better Than Money
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Zi shook her head, amused to see Jin Long looking so serious and anxious. “Look at you, unable to hide your feelings at all. Where did you hear that Gong Xin is back? That’s her father, Chief Gong of the Southeast Military Region. Perhaps he could be your future father-in-law. Why not go up and greet him?”
Upon hearing this, Jin Long’s spirits deflated immediately. “Forget it; I can’t even see Gong Xin. I’m miles away from succeeding in our relationship. Gong Xin is the precious daughter of Chief Gong. I’m just a nobody without achievements to my name. They probably wouldn’t even consider someone like me as a son-in-law.”
Noticing the sincerity in Jin Long’s tone, Gu Zi sobered up and replied earnestly, “Oh, are you feeling a bit self-deprecating? You’re underestimating yourself. You’re a wealthy heir with your own abilities, and you genuinely care for Gong Xin. Do you really want to watch her with another man? Have some confidence! If you want to make her happy, you have to go for it!”
Jin Long felt a flicker of determination sparked by Gu Zi’s words. “Gu Zi, are you saying that if I pursue Gong Xin with all my might, I’ll have a chance? With your encouragement, I’m feeling more confident! When Gong Xin comes back this time, I’ll go all out!”
After boosting Jin Long’s spirits, Gu Zi took a seat at the table and began to sample some dishes. They had hired a private catering team for the housewarming feast, ensuring the food quality was excellent.
However, Gu Zi felt that even though the dishes were good, they couldn’t quite compare to her own cooking.
Still, there was no reason for her to manage the banquet alone. She loved cooking, not working herself to the bone, and it was better to leave professional tasks to the professionals.
Before long, Chief Gong descended the stairs accompanied by two bodyguards, ready to bid farewell to everyone.
Gu Zi understood that, given Chief Gong’s status, even though he was here to express gratitude, it was not appropriate for him to linger for too long. She stood up to see him off.
As he was leaving, Chief Gong said to Gu Zi, “Gu Zi, my girl, you are truly a fortunate young lady. You’re wonderful, and you’ve found a good husband. I won’t bring up the past anymore. We can’t repay Su Shen for saving Gong Zhan’s life, but if there’s ever anything you need from the Gong family, don’t hesitate to ask.”
