Chapter 363: Chapter 363: I’m Dropping the Act and Laying My Cards on the Table! I’m a Multimillionaire

"What the heck?"

"Like hell I’m lying!"

Seeing his mom’s disapproving look, Gu Yizhou was momentarily stunned.

"No, Mom, don’t look at me like that!"

"I’m not lying to you!"

Chen Dongmei said nothing, continuing to eye him with suspicion.

Fine.

To be fair, Gu Yizhou had only brought up Yan Luoxi at first to placate his mother.

But then it actually came true!

So, he hadn’t actually lied to her at all!

However!

Gu Yizhou could actually understand his mother’s suspicion.

Because the female president of a hundred-billion-yuan corporation falling for him sounded a bit fantastical to most people.

After all, not everyone knew his real situation.

But having lived two lives and with a System to back him up, he wasn’t inferior to anyone.

In fact, he was more badass than anyone!

Alright.

It seemed it was time to reveal a little something to his mom.

Otherwise, she would always think her son was a good-for-nothing.

"Ahem."

"Mom, I originally wanted to interact with you as a normal person, but I didn’t expect to be met with such distance in return. I’m done pretending. I’m laying my cards on the table!"

Gu Yizhou began to speak with a completely straight face, "I..."

SMACK!

Before he could finish, he was cut off by a heavy slap.

"Ouch..."

Gu Yizhou clutched his head and looked at his mom, aggrieved. "Mom, why’d you hit me?"

"Speak like a normal person!"

Chen Dongmei glanced at him and said flatly.

"..."

Gu Yizhou was speechless. ’How is that not speaking like a normal person?’

He was just about to explain when he heard his mom continue, "Laying your cards on the table? What cards do you have that I don’t know about?"

"Uh..."

Gu Yizhou paused, then said, "Mom, believe it or not, I actually do!"

"Hm?"

Hearing this, Chen Dongmei raised an eyebrow.

"Ahem!"

Seeing his mom’s expression was off, Gu Yizhou quickly said in a serious tone, "Mom, I’m being serious with you. The truth is, I..."

"Alright, alright!"

Chen Dongmei interrupted him impatiently, "I just want to know if it’s true that your President Yan likes you!"

"Huh?"

Gu Yizhou was floored.

’Mom!’

’That’s not the only thing I wanted to talk about!’

Gu Yizhou felt a bit helpless.

Of course!

He definitely wasn’t going to mention that he’d been reborn and bound to a System.

After all, something like that sounded way too fantastical.

Besides, he understood the principle that an innocent man gets into trouble for possessing a treasure.

If it attracted any unnecessary trouble, the loss would far outweigh the gain.

So this was something he would never tell anyone in this life, not even his family or Yan Luoxi.

"Alright, I’ll tell you the truth. President Yan and I have confirmed our relationship. We’re officially together."

"I was even planning to bring her to meet you in a while, to give you a surprise!"

Gu Yizhou looked at his mom and said it straight.

"Hm?"

Hearing this, Chen Dongmei’s eyes flew wide open.

"You’re already together?"

she asked, looking at her son with a shocked expression.

"Yes!"

"We’re already together. She’s my girlfriend now, and also your future daughter-in-law."

Gu Yizhou nodded.

Chen Dongmei: "..."

Her mouth hung slightly open, and for a moment, she didn’t know what to say.

’They’re officially together!’

’And he’s planning to bring her over to meet us...’

It was a lot of information to take in. Chen Dongmei felt she needed a moment to process it.

To be honest, she knew her son quite well.

He could be a bit unreliable at times, but he would never lie and deceive people.

Especially about something that could be exposed so easily.

So, she was more inclined to believe that Gu Yizhou really was with Yan Luoxi.

It was just that she was really curious—when on earth did her son get together with Yan Luoxi?

How could she not have known anything about it?

Could this be what they call ’unstoppable fate’?

Chen Dongmei shook her head and stopped thinking about it.

However!

Since the two of them were already together, it was time to consider the future.

Seriously!

She had been pushing Gu Yizhou to win over his president, but now that he actually had, she was starting to panic a little.

After all, the class difference between their families was a bit large!

Although she felt that as long as her son and future daughter-in-law got along well, she would be content.

But!

She had to consider what the other family would think!

What if they looked down on her family and thought her son was marrying up? What then?

Suddenly, Chen Dongmei started to worry again.

Seeing his mom’s ever-changing expression, Gu Yizhou had a good idea of what she was thinking.

He knew his mom was probably thinking about the class difference between him and Yan Luoxi. After all, the gap between their families was indeed quite large.

But he wasn’t worried about that.

He believed that as long as he and Yan Luoxi truly loved each other, these external factors wouldn’t be an obstacle between them.

Besides, he was confident he could shrink that gap, and even surpass it.

After all, with his experience and perspective from his past life, plus the assistance of his System...

...making money was actually quite easy for him.

Besides, wasn’t Dongzhou Technology developing right now?

Once Douyin really took off, it wouldn’t matter if Tidal Group was a hundred-billion-yuan corporation; even a trillion-yuan one would be nothing.

He could still catch up and surpass them!

"Mom, you don’t need to worry about that."

Gu Yizhou looked at his mom and said seriously, "Luoxi and I truly love each other. We won’t let any external factors separate us. And I’ll work hard to become stronger, to be worthy of her."

"As for Luoxi’s family, I’ll win them over with my sincerity and effort."

After speaking, Gu Yizhou thought for a moment, then picked up his phone, opened his bank account balance, and handed it to his mom.

"Mom, take a look at this."

"What for?"

Chen Dongmei frowned, a little confused.

"You’ll know once you see."

Gu Yizhou said with a mysterious smile.

Seeing this, Chen Dongmei took the phone suspiciously and glanced at it.

’Bank account balance?’

Chen Dongmei froze for a second.

She subconsciously started counting the place values under her breath. "Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands... ten million..."

Suddenly!

She snapped her head up and looked at Gu Yizhou in shock. "T-Ten... million?!?!"

"That’s right!"

"Correct. Ten million!"

"I’m done pretending. I’m laying my cards on the table. Your son... is a multimillionaire!"

Gu Yizhou said with a calm smile.

After saying that, he thought for a moment and added, "Oh, by the way, Mom, I also started a tech company with a friend a while back. It’s developing pretty well and is about to turn a profit. So, you can relax!"

Chen Dongmei: "..."
