Chapter 1554 - 1556

Gong Ruzhi felt helpless, knowing that generally, any issue raised by his sister would be agreed upon by his brother-in-law without question.

He never imagined that even learning architecture could be agreed to, just to build a vacation villa for his sister.

Come on, while the blueprints I design feel meaningful, what if every time such a thing arises, his brother-in-law has to learn something new, will he manage?

Also, brother-in-law, with all your hardworking efforts, do you not realize this would cause a batch of people to lose their jobs?

Gong Jiaxin wasn’t involved at all, she was more concerned about, "Where is this house going to be built?"

The house has to be as rustic as possible, it can’t possibly be built in New York, right?

"Montana."

"I plan to buy a ranch for Ni Zi as a gift." Zhao Xuran said calmly.

Wow, buying a ranch for Gong Ruini? Oh my gosh, Gong Jiaxin was stunned.

Although she had never bought a ranch and knew nothing about them, she knew the price was definitely not cheap.

"Buying a ranch just to build this house?" Oh my gosh, truly a wasteful extravagance.

"No, it’s for summer vacations so Ni Zi can ride horses whenever she wants, and to allow Pingping and them to experience ranch culture." Zhao Xuran didn’t want this idea to spread around.

Who would buy a ranch just for a house, this truly is extravagant.

The rationale is sound and reasonable, but Gong Jiaxin felt a pang in her heart; her cousin’s fate sure was extraordinary,

"I think I need to stay away from you guys." Gong Jiaxin called out, "Otherwise, I’ll have no hope of getting married in this lifetime."

How does this relate to whether Gong Jiaxin gets married or not—Gong Ruini felt this blame shouldn’t fall on them.

"You said, when it comes to appeasing girls, who can compare to Zhao Guangran?"

"If it’s a man who’s not good with sweet talk, it’s okay, but having someone like Zhao Xuran with ways to appease girls, I can accept that." Gong Jiaxin deeply felt that if things continued like this, her career might develop to an extent where normal people would not stand a chance with her.

Gong Ruzhi initially didn’t take any of this seriously; whether Gong Jiaxin gets married or not, how is that his concern? Even if someone needed to introduce Gong Jiaxin to a boyfriend, it wouldn’t be his responsibility.

But hearing Gong Jiaxin’s analysis, he was stunned, "Oh, am I doomed to never have hope of getting a wife in this lifetime?"

"Unless I work hard to earn money." Gong Ruzhi felt like crying, why was he so unlucky?

If you don’t have sweet words to enthrall girls or the cash to dazzle potential partners, what’s a guy supposed to do?

"That’s right." Gong Jiaxin didn’t have an ounce of sympathy for Gong Ruzhi.

Even jokingly, when it comes to using money to impress, is Gong Ruzhi short of money?

"Brother-in-law, if I ever date a girl, before establishing the relationship, you can’t appear, nor can Brother Guangran." Gong Ruzhi made it clear that he didn’t need Zhao Xuran or others to view his romantic developments, or it would really be risky.

In fact, not risky but hopeless, "I definitely don’t want Gong Jiaming’s tragedy to repeat itself with me."

Oh, poor Gong Jiaming, Gong Ruzhi felt that the younger ones can continuously learn from the failures of the older siblings, and strive not to repeat mistakes, completing the task smoothly.

"That’s his own doing, not anyone’s fault." Gong Jiaxin coldly reiterated that blame shouldn’t be placed on any individual.

Kidding, if his younger brother had been more courageous, how would there have been such an issue? It’s all his own dragging, how could he blame anyone else?

Mentioning this once or twice was fine, but saying it often definitely rubbed Zhao Guangran and them the wrong way, making them uncomfortable.

"Besides, I don’t think she would suit my brother." Gong Jiaxin knew Gong Jiaming liked a girl, and she naturally had to check it out.

After all, it concerned more than just Gong Jiaming personally; on a larger scale, it’s a family matter. If one brings home trouble, it’s a big issue.

Ultimately, after looking into it, Gong Jiaxin really felt unimpressed, or perhaps thought of her as unlikely a good wife and mother.

"Of course, don’t tell Gong Jiaming. I saw her once embracing and kissing a man in his forties, and then leaving with a younger man at night." Even though knowing there was no possibility between her and his brother, it still felt uncomfortable.

Besides not wanting Gong Jiaming to know, she never mentioned it, but now expressing it felt much better.

Really? Gong Ruini was stunned. She knew of the person, but didn’t know the specifics.

Suddenly recalling Zhao Guangran’s comment before, "Didn’t Guangran say she was fine?"

Gong Jiaxin definitely couldn’t admit she was secretly observing, "Yes, she seemed fine, pretty pure. If I hadn’t accidentally seen it, I would think she’s good too."

Gong Ruini really didn’t expect Zhao Guangran to misjudge people like that, but didn’t dwell on it; Gong Jiaxin had no reason to aggrieve someone.

"Guess it’s really lucky." Gong Ruini didn’t think too much about it; even if someone had ill intentions, the fact was they eventually chose someone else.

Perhaps feeling Gong Jiaming lacked prospects, or encountering someone even better, it’s impossible not to be tempted.

"Indeed, but I believe it’s necessary to make him aware of this aspect, otherwise he’s too vulnerable to being deceived by seemingly pure girls." Zhao Xuran understood why Gong Jiaxin didn’t want Gong Jiaming informed.

But if he’s uninformed, he won’t understand the depth there, and who knows, someone might fall into trouble.

Gong Jiaxin felt some reluctance, that kind of impact is truly severe, still, thinking over Zhao Xuran’s analysis, well, she admitted he made a point.

But this sort of task, she couldn’t execute it, finding it rather cruel.

As for the best candidate to accomplish this task, Gong Jiaxin unapologetically glanced at Zhao Xuran; as he proposed it, naturally, he should execute it.

Haha, Zhao Xuran chuckled, this matter he definitely wouldn’t undertake, isn’t Zhao Guangran more suitable?

"He knows many people, thus could take Jiaming to witness situations." Even if finding someone to act, for Zhao Guangran, really isn’t difficult.

Getting Zhao Guangran’s help, Gong Jiaxin naturally had no objection; over Zhao Xuran, he’s a better choice, but isn’t he in the UK?

"Don’t worry, he’s willing to help." If it’s just for women primarily attracted by money, Zhao Guangran doesn’t mind, only concerned about undisclosed secrets.

If it’s mere minor affairs, it wouldn’t hinder anyone, but once Zhao Guangran went to the UK and truly thrived, how would they operate?

There could be attempts at alliance, suppression, or possibly division.

The capital Zhao Guangran manages isn’t solely his, involving several parties, easily traceable. If internal issues arise, Zhao Guangran’s financial prowess wouldn’t overcome them.
