Half an hour later, a luxurious car stopped on the private road in front of the Fang family's villa. Then, a person who looked like a butler alighted from the car and walked to Fang Tong respectfully. He took the suitcase from her hands and invited her into the car, then, he drove away.
"Whose license plate is that? It looks so familiar!" Wen Wanyi muttered to herself as she looked at the car that took away Fang Tong.
Jin Nanxuan, who was standing at the side, had an ugly expression on his face. If he remembered correctly, that was... the Gu family's car!
The Gu family's manor.
It was different from the small courtyard of the villa. The Gu family's old manor could simply be described as a manor. It had an endless lawn courtyard and a carved iron door. After sensing the license plate, the door slowly opened. From the main entrance to the house's main entrance, it would take four to five minutes to drive in the middle.
Even Fang Tong, who was used to big scenes, felt surprised when she saw this scene.
She had never known that such a place existed in City A.
The butler brought Fang Tong to the living room. In the middle of the living room were two armchairs. On the left sat a white-haired old man, and on the right was a middle-aged lady.
As soon as Fang Tong entered, the lady's eyes lit up. She had never seen such a beautiful girl. The next second, she frowned slightly. Such a beautiful girl probably couldn't bear the loneliness.
"Hello, I'm Fang Tong."
The butler introduced Fang Tong, "This is Old Master Gu, and this is Madam Gu."
"Old Master Gu, Madam Gu."
"Mm!" Old Master Gu stroked his beard. He was very satisfied with this elegant and graceful girl who was neither servile nor overbearing.
He looked at his daughter-in-law beside him and asked for her opinion. Madam Gu looked at Fang Tong carefully and finally nodded. "Do you understand Nancheng's situation?"
Fang Tong nodded.
On the way here, the butler had already told her in advance.
The only son of the Gu family, Gu Nancheng, had been in a serious car accident half a year ago. After half a year of emergency treatment, his external injuries had already healed, but he was still in a coma. Recently, they couldn't even get any nutrient fluids into his body, and his physical condition had plummeted. Many doctors had determined that he wouldn't live for more than three months.
The Gu family was unwilling to give up on their only son. They searched for treatment many times, and in the end, they found a master of metaphysics. He said that if they wanted to save Gu Nancheng, they needed to find a woman with a birth year in the single digits and the birth month in the double digits. Only by getting married could Gu Nancheng survive.
Fang Tong happened to be the person chosen by the Gu family.
Initially, when the Gu family went to the Fang family to propose marriage, the Fang Corporation hadn't gone bankrupt yet. When Mr. Fang heard that Gu Nancheng was about to die, he immediately rejected the marriage and didn't mention it to Fang Tong at all.
Two days ago, when the Fang Corporation went bankrupt and the Gu family brought it up again, Fang Tong's first reaction was that of humiliation, so she didn't agree to it for a long time. Now...
"Madam, don't worry. Since I've agreed to the Gu family's proposal, I'll definitely do my part as the Gu family's daughter-in-law and take good care of the young master. If he's lucky enough to wake up, we'll talk about whether we should continue this marriage. If he's unlucky... I'll also stay in the Gu family and take care of Young Master Gu for three years."
Fang Tong looked determined, and Madam Gu couldn't help but feel her nose tingle. She had no choice but to do this. She really hoped that as the master had said, Fang Tong would bring good luck to Nancheng!
"Miss Fang, if you have any requests, feel free to mention them. As long as the Gu family can make the decision, we will fulfill them."
Fang Tong pursed her lips and slowly said, "I hope that the Gu family can step forward and bid for the Fang family's villa. Don't let it fall into the hands of others!"
"Alright, no problem." Old Master Gu made the decision.
