Di Yue Group.
The phone on the office desk flickered. Di Mingjue and Mr. Gu were in the adjacent conference room.
“Mr. Gu, I have heard about President Gu’s matter.”
Yesterday, he had heard rumors, but he hadn’t expected Mr. Gu to be so swift. Ever since the blind date incident, the Gu family’s doors had been battered by various enterprises. Gu Xiuyu had feelings for Ye Ziyu but lacked the power to act.
To avoid being targeted by Di Yue Group, Mr. Gu had personally come to apologize to Di Mingjue on behalf of Gu Xiuyu. While the Gu family was not insignificant in Sijiucheng, Ye Ziyu was a Miss of the Ye family, and her husband was Di Mingjue of Di Yue Group. Provoking them would lead to business repercussions.
The business world was like a battlefield. Mr. Gu, having spent most of his life building Gu’s Corporation, did not wish to see his once glorious company decline in his twilight years. Dignity was trivial compared to his life’s work.
“Xiuyu is young and foolish. When he encounters a woman he admires, he mistakes it for love. He has offended you, President Di, many times recently. I hope you will be understanding.” Mr. Gu’s expression was sincere.
Parents were a source of support, and Di Mingjue felt this keenly at that moment. The usually imposing and influential Mr. Gu was, in Gu Xiuyu’s matter, merely a father worried about his son.
Di Mingjue rose and walked towards Mr. Gu, respectfully refilling his teacup, “Mr. Gu, you are too kind. By age, I am practically his elder brother. It is precisely because of your relationship that I called you. A momentary wrong turn is not important, but if no one guides them, every step will be a mistake, and that would be dire.”
“Yes, President Di speaks what I have been considering. It is also thanks to your reminder, President Di, that I realized Xiuyu has reached the age where he should be married. I still see him as a child, thinking only of him learning to manage the company.” Mr. Gu’s words were heartfelt.
The current connection between the Ye family and Di Yue Group also reminded him to find a suitable wife for Gu Xiuyu. He had not previously paid much attention to the background of Gu Xiuyu’s future wife, especially since before Ye Qianzhi found Ye Ziyu, Di Mingjue had not yet moved from the capital to Sijiucheng. Now that the Ye family was tied to Di Yue Group, they far surpassed Gu’s Corporation. To remain an equal player with the Ye family, Gu Xiuyu’s other half needed to be someone who could assist Gu’s Corporation’s development.
Di Mingjue smiled, sensing Mr. Gu’s intentions from his words.
For those like them, born into wealthy families, life, though luxurious, offered the kind of life that ordinary people needed half a lifetime to experience. However, it came with many restrictions. The most tragic aspect was that who they would marry in the future was not something they could decide. This was unless they themselves were powerful enough to stand at the pinnacle without relying on anyone.
With his worries alleviated, Mr. Gu left Di Yue Group under Di Mingjue’s escort.
Returning to his office, Di Mingjue saw the phone on his desk. He stared at it for a moment before walking over and picking it up. Seeing that Ye Ziyu had called, he immediately dialed back.
Hearing the “phone is off” prompt, his heart sank. Seeing three or four missed calls, he worried that Ye Ziyu might have called him because something had happened.
As he scrolled through, he noticed another message below.
“A business trip?” Di Mingjue was now more angered than worried.
Had Ye’s Corporation become unmanageable without her?
With anger burning, Di Mingjue called Ye Chenhan, but the result was the same; Ye Chenhan’s phone was also unreachable.
Were they traveling together?
With questions swirling, Di Mingjue left Di Yue Group for Ye’s Corporation.
“Ye Shaoting!”
A large group of people ahead stopped. Ye Shaoting, surrounded by his entourage, looked up at Di Mingjue.
