Chapter 4723 Never Too Late to Love (130)
Gu Jinglian snorted. “Good that you know. But why five million, so much money?”
Gu Chengze smiled and handed over the wedding preparation list.
The man glanced at it. It was not that he could not afford the five million yuan. Five million was nothing to him.
However, for Gu Chengze, who had just graduated and did not have a strong foundation, five million yuan was indeed rather hefty. To take on a debt of five million yuan and settle it within two years without any help from the family… It had to be said that Gu Chengze’s boldness far exceeded his father’s imagination.
!!
Unlike other aristocratic families, the Gu family had especially strict requirements for this son.
Where Gu Lingge was concerned, five million yuan was just a matter of throwing a tantrum. But where Gu Chengze and Gu Linxi, or even Gu Xinghan were concerned, this was an astronomical figure. However, no one would have any objections to this “unspoken rule”.
From a young age, Chu He had taught the children that a man from the Gu family had to be indomitable even if he left the family.
In this world, any dynasty will eventually fall. As the saying goes, wealth does not last more than three generations. No matter how strong an empire is, with the change of power, there would eventually be a day when it will fall.
Chu He and Gu Jinglian had great expectations of their sons, not because they wish for the Gu family to be more prosperous in the hands of the next generation, but because they hoped that they would grow up to be resilient people.
A man is truly powerful only if his heart is strong enough.
After taking a closer look, Gu Jinglian felt that everything seemed to be in place and relented. “A wedding is an event of a lifetime. Indeed it has to be done properly.”
“Yes. Then, Your Majesty, is it approved?”
“Approved.”
The man kept the IOU and said, “I’ll transfer the money to your account in the afternoon.”
“Alright.”
The man heaved a sigh of relief.
…
When he returned to the bedroom, Bai Sheng had just woken up and was washing up.
When she walked out of the bathroom, she saw Gu Chengze holding his phone, seemingly looking up some information.
She had no idea that Gu Chengze had their wedding all planned, and had even secured the funds for the wedding.
“What are you looking at?” She walked over and leaned close to him.
Gu Chengze was reading travel advice on various topics.
She glanced at it and happened to see him reading a holiday guide for the Maldives.
“Maldives?”
“Well, didn’t you say you want a wedding vacation?”
Bai Sheng was surprised. “Have you already communicated with Dad and Mom?”
“Yes, they’ve agreed. But I still think that I’d rather have a ceremony. After all, a wedding is a once in a lifetime event.”
Since he said so, Bai Sheng naturally agreed.
He had already fulfilled her dream of a wedding vacation. Of course, she would support his idea.
“Will it be a church wedding?”
“Yes. I’ll go and take a look at possible venues tomorrow. Preferably it will be one with a garden and a lawn. We can decorate it. After the wedding, the guests can have a buffet in the garden.”
Bai Sheng tried to imagine it. For some reason, a western style garden wedding was something that she’d only seen in movies. Suddenly, her anticipation for the wedding ceremony grew.
“I can imagine how beautiful it will look.”
“But that’s going to take place only after the wedding vacation.”
