Chapter 1638: Chapter 1620
At this moment, a red Maserati was parked at the entrance of the gambling stone field.
Han Wanwan, wearing sunglasses, sat in the driver’s seat, constantly looking towards the entrance.
She wanted to go in and find Chu Ge, but worried about being photographed by paparazzi entering such a lowbrow place, she remained hesitant there for a long time.
Liu Yue noticed the car when she went to the warehouse to get medicine. She felt that the person seemed familiar, so she went forward curiously to take a few glances.
Han Wanwan’s reputation was already well-known, and Liu Yue recognized her at once.
"Han Wanwan!" Liu Yue exclaimed, oh my, she actually bumped into a big star here!
Liu Yue was so excited that she almost dropped the medicine she was holding.
Han Wanwan didn’t expect to be recognized so quickly. She hurriedly got out of the car and said to Liu Yue, "Shh, keep your voice down!"
Liu Yue quickly covered her mouth with her hand, looking at Han Wanwan with joy and curiosity, asking, "Han Wanwan, why did you come here?"
She really wanted to take a photo with Han Wanwan and get her autograph.
Han Wanwan gave an awkward smile, smoothing her hair, and said, "I just happened to be passing by, and then... noticed there’s a gambling stone field here, so I thought I’d stop by and take a look."
"Are you interested in gambling stones?"
Liu Yue was even more surprised.
Han Wanwan licked her lips and chuckled awkwardly. She’s not interested in gambling stones, but couldn’t directly tell her she came to find Chu Ge, could she?
What if...
"Han Wanwan, don’t go yet. I’ll go find our Mr. Chu. I remember he quite likes you!"
After Liu Yue repeatedly urged her, afraid that Han Wanwan would leave, she kept glancing back.
Han Wanwan was shocked by her words. What did she just say? Chu Ge quite likes her?
Just thinking about Chu Ge’s attitude towards her before, a surge of frustration welled up in her heart. If that counts as liking, then what about the people who he truly likes!
Han Wanwan, feeling aggrieved, returned to the car. She didn’t even know who she was angry with, but Liu Yue going to call Chu Ge solved one of her troubles.
She took a script from the passenger seat, flipped it open, and glanced at it. The director had forcefully given it to her today, the purpose being to make her find Chu Ge again and ensure he acts in this drama!
She also hoped for Chu Ge to act in this drama, but considering his aloof demeanor, could she persuade him?
Han Wanwan was internally conflicted. She flipped through the script, revisiting the content, and the more she read, the more she wanted to laugh...
"Breaking news! The foolish son of the landowner is getting married!"
"Whose son?"
"It’s the young master of the Chu family, the wealthiest in the Imperial Capital! That fool is getting married!"
Inside Night Bar, a young girl dressed plainly, wearing a baseball cap, was nestled in the bar, looking extremely ordinary. At the moment, she was listening to the gossip of those around her with her head hanging low.
"Go figure! I heard his foolishness has gotten worse recently, even eating has become a problem! Whether he can survive this year is still unknown, which idiot would want to marry that fool?"
Upon hearing this, Han Wanwan’s empty eyes finally focused. She slowly raised her eyelids, staggered forward, casually patted someone’s shoulder, and nodded in agreement, "Absolutely right! That person is a fool!"
As the wealthiest family in the Imperial Capital, the Chu family has a history spanning a hundred years, covering more than thirty industries, with net profits reaching the top three on the global billionaire list.
Perhaps, for fairness, or for some other reason, God gave the Chu family five generations of only sons, a sparse lineage, and in the fifth generation, the offspring turned out to be a fool.
To this sole heir, the Chu Family Matriarch sought famous doctors and remedies everywhere, but 25 years have passed without finding a solution. Adding insult to injury, this year his condition has worsened.
To continue the family line and ensure the Chu family does not end, the Chu Family Matriarch decided to find a wife for that foolish grandson to carry on the family name.
Unfortunately, the Lin family won the lottery.
The fortune teller said the horoscopes of the Lin family’s eldest daughter Han Wanwan and the Chu family’s young master match perfectly, a predestined union.
Yes, she is that fool!
She wanted to rebel, she wanted to refuse, but the opposing background was too strong. With a gentle lift of a finger, they could crush the Lin family to powder effortlessly.
Han Wanwan left the bar, looked up at the night sky, it seemed that even God sensed her sorrow and hid all the stars, leaving it oppressively dark, suffocating.
She walked forward in a daze, amidst the bustling streets, cars and people passing by. Perhaps due to the drunkenness, a wave of loneliness surged in her heart.
Before she could savor it, "Screech——"
An ear-piercing brake sounded as a luxurious and stable Bugatti Veyron stopped in front of her, followed by two bodyguards in black exiting the car.
"Miss Lin, please come with us!"
Before Han Wanwan could refuse, she was bound and taken into the car, only realizing what was happening after the car joined the traffic.
"Ah!!! What are you doing! I have no money! I want..." Before the word "sex" could be uttered, Han Wanwan swallowed nervously, "I am the future Young Madam of the Chu family, are you sure you want to commit such a crime?"
Even kindergarten kids know defying the Chu family is a death wish where you don’t even know how you’ll end up!
Han Wanwan didn’t expect that soon-to-be-foolish her could still benefit from the Chu family’s foolish young master.
However, after a while, there was no response from the other side.
Eh?
Could it be that the Chu family name is no longer effective?
The glass-like pupils of Han Wanwan’s eyes rolled as her little brain quickly thought of ways to escape.
Before she could devise a plan, the person in the passenger seat suddenly turned around respectfully and said, "Miss Lin, do not be afraid, we are not bad people. I am Uncle Fu, the housekeeper of the Chu family, here to escort you to the Chu family."
"..." Han Wanwan was stunned.
Isn’t the wedding scheduled for tomorrow? Why the rush to go tonight?
At the Chu Mansion, lights were ablaze.
From the mansion’s gate to the living room, all the bodyguards stood at attention as if a major event was about to unfold.
Han Wanwan followed Uncle Fu nervously, cautiously entering the living room.
"Madam, Miss Lin is here."
In the central seat of the sofa sat a noble, elegant elderly woman. She raised her eyes, filled with wisdom, sizing up the plainly dressed Han Wanwan.
Han Wanwan kept her head down, her hat brim concealing her face, making it impossible to see what she looked like.
"Lift your head."
Han Wanwan resignedly closed her eyes and slowly lifted her head.
Upon seeing Han Wanwan’s true appearance, Su Xiuci’s eyes lit up.
Even though she’d seen photos of her before, seeing her in person today, she couldn’t help but be amazed by her extraordinarily stunning beauty.
"Miss Lin, starting today, you are the daughter-in-law of the Chu family..."
"Huh?" Han Wanwan was stunned, then realized. It made sense, as the time was already twenty past midnight, technically today.
But wasn’t it necessary to hurry and bring her here like this? She thought she would only become the Chu family daughter-in-law after obtaining the marriage certificate during the day.
