Chapter 2218 - 2222: Did You Play a Part in This?
In Ruan Feifei’s image in his mind, she had long been labeled as “selfish, greedy, materialistic, and covetous of wealth and fame.”
At that time, although Zhan Jinchuan hadn’t reached his current position, he was already outstanding among his peers.
Adding to that was his status as an adopted son of the Gu Family, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Zhan Jinchuan had an unlimited future.
Ruan Feifei, though young and beautiful, a student of Beijing University, smart with good grades, seemed very outstanding in terms of personal conditions, but in Beijing, where matching social status is emphasized in marriage arrangements, no matter how excellent she was, it would be difficult for her to marry into a wealthy family.
Zhan Jinchuan was undoubtedly her best choice.
Yet Ruan Feifei actually refused.
Gu Junzhu had once been puzzled by this news.
But since Ruan Feifei wouldn’t be marrying into their Gu Family, he was too lazy to waste his efforts on a woman who disgusted him.
Back then, he was still serving the country, so busy that he wished a day had 48 hours, and he had no time to pay attention to Ruan Feifei.
After meeting Ye Xingbei and Xiao Shumiao, he devoted most of his attention to Ye Xingbei and Xiao Shumiao, even less inclined to bother with someone he disliked.
If it weren’t for hearing Ruan Feifei’s name from Qin Heng, he would have almost forgotten about Ruan Feifei.
Ruan Feifei actually married Li Su.
That really surprised him.
It also showed that Ruan Feifei was indeed resourceful.
Although Li Su was merely the heir of a split-off branch of the Li Family,
but unlike the thriving main family of the Li Family, Li Su’s family had only two brothers.
Moreover, Li Su was very talented in business.
With the backing of the large Li Family, Li Su’s business was booming.
Li Su’s father was in the food business.
The company’s name was “Nourishing Valley.”
Since Li Su joined his father’s company, in a few years, Nourishing Valley’s scale expanded more than tenfold compared to before he joined, opening one branch after another.
Nourishing Valley had evidently become the leader in the domestic food industry.
Li Su’s ability was evident.
Gu Junzhu had met Li Su a few times, but they had no particular relationship and had not dealt with each other.
He only knew that Li Su, that young master of the split-off branch of the Li Family, was a young talent, promising, and very capable.
But he didn’t know much about Li Su’s personality and character.
However, even if Li Su was the young master of the branch family, given Ruan Feifei’s background, she wouldn’t be a match for Li Su,
yet Ruan Feifei actually succeeded in marrying Li Su, which truly surprised him.
He looked at Zhan Jinchuan and squinted his eyes, “Brother Chuan, did you have a hand in Ruan Feifei marrying Li Su?”
Zhan Jinchuan appeared somewhat embarrassed and avoided his gaze.
He knew Gu Junzhu disliked Ruan Feifei.
If possible, he didn’t want to discuss anything related to Ruan Feifei with Gu Junzhu.
But Gu Junzhu wasn’t planning to let it go.
He looked at Zhan Jinchuan, furrowing his brows, “Brother Chuan, don’t tell me you played matchmaker for Ruan Feifei and Li Su. I remember you were comrades with the Third Young Master of the Li Family!”
“No…” Zhan Jinchuan shook his head with difficulty, “…However… she and Li Su did meet through me.”
“I don’t know much about Li Su’s parents,” Gu Junzhu said, “but as parents, thoughts tend to be similar. I believe Li Su’s parents would certainly want Li Su to marry someone of equal standing. Brother Chuan, tell me honestly, did Li Su’s parents agree to let Li Su marry Ruan Feifei because of your face?”
Zhan Jinchuan remained silent for a long while before slowly nodding, “…Yes.”
