Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife-Chapter 1195: Lingxin and Mingli (6)

Mingli furrowed his small brows, but stepped back to see what Gu Dad would do.

Gu Dad cleared his throat and shouted inside, "Open the door, Lingxin. Mingli was taken out to play by his grandma, he’s not here."

"Hmm." A muffled response came from inside the room.

Mingli pressed his small ear against the door to listen to his brother’s voice.

Grandpa and Gu Dad also sensed something was wrong and quickly called for his wife to bring the room key.

Not long after, Tang Sili received a call at the hospital from the boss’s house, saying that the eldest young master, Lingxin, was sick.

Gu Nuan was in a closed-door meeting at the company.

For the past three years, Changda has developed with some ups and downs, but without major risks. The performance didn’t soar, but it did satisfy the shareholders quite well.

First, the transformation plan that Gu Nuan implemented from the start is finally being steadily pushed forward in the company, and the results of the transformation are obvious. The new commercial real estate development focused on cultural entertainment has great potential and meets modern people’s needs for integrating spiritual and material enjoyment.

Representative projects include the coastal ancient cultural tourism village project in Lai’an Village, invested by Gu Nuan and the white-collar community. The first phase has been completed and has been in use for half a year. The revenue from tickets and related industries has already exceeded expectations, and the local residents have benefited greatly.

As for the highly controversial ecological park investment in her hometown, many shareholders and social media questioned it. Because the return on investment for the ecological park is very slow, the capital recovery is slow, and even Gu Nuan herself admits this. However, it is significantly beneficial for local environmental protection, industrial development, and employment.

Perhaps not much money has been earned back, but Gu Nuan and Changda have gained the highest reputation among the local people and government as a conscientious company.

As a result, Changda has also been recognized by the media as a green, environmentally-friendly commercial real estate company and is acknowledged as a leading enterprise in the business world with new directions for future real estate development.

Over these years, Sister Yao has noticeably felt that Gu Nuan has become much more exhausted.

Being a company leader and a mom is something most women can’t manage simultaneously. Sister Yao is only a minor leader in the company, yet she sometimes finds herself overwhelmed, thinking of company matters naturally at the expense of family ones. Gu Nuan, no matter how strong, is still a woman.

As for where her husband, Da Bai, went to help his wife.

Xiao Yebai definitely wasn’t idle; he often went out with Zhan Dapeng. Gu Nuan knew exactly where her husband went and that his frequent outings involved risky business, which often left her on edge and truly worried. That’s why she dared not tell her parents and only said to the two elders that Da Bai went out to negotiate business.

She couldn’t stop her husband from doing these things, because both of them knew they hadn’t escaped the danger yet.

One day, even if the evil hand didn’t reach out to the couple, it would surely reach out to the kids. It’s been three years since she gave birth, and those people have been eerily quiet ever since. Obviously, they’re waiting for something.

After the routine company meeting finished, Gu Nuan turned her phone back on and found out that something had happened to the kids at home.

Lingxin was running a high fever; the child probably felt unwell since last night, but endured it without saying anything until it fully erupted now.

Tang Sili came over, examined the child’s condition, and advised hospitalization. Because it’s obvious, the child has acute pneumonia.

After they moved, Gu Nuan’s family lived in a regular residential neighborhood, although it’s a four-bedroom, two-living room setup, it’s different from a villa, being smaller. Tang Sili wanted to bring medical equipment over for Lingxin’s treatment, but there was no place to put it. Moreover, when kids fall ill, the risk is high, and if the illness worsens, it progresses rapidly.
