977: Ready To Soar

Ready To Soar

Meanwhile, that vicious older sister, Zhong Qianqian, who had been reduced to worthlessness by the media, was actually the little princess of the Nangong family.2

One of them was the noblest lady in Camino, while the other was the noblest lady in Luntan.

Putting aside whatever grudges between the two princesses, just the statuses of these two little princesses were enough to make countless families envious. The Zhong family was really lucky to have two daughters with such powerful backgrounds.

Why was it not their daughter who got kidnapped? Why was it not their daughter who transformed into the Duke's daughter, a presence that was second only to the Royal Princess?

Why was it not their wife who was born a rich young lady who had gotten lost?

The media tried to find the people involved—one of them was the 'luckiest father in history', Zhong Kuijun. Yet, they failed.

Thus, they shifted their target to the 'luckiest mother in history', Jiang Shuwan, and failed too.

Later, everyone heard that Jiang Shuwan and the Jiang family went to Emperor District to attend her daughter's wedding.

The media swarmed back to Emperor District.

Few among the media outlets realized something was wrong—Cloud Group had been taken over by the military base.

However, nobody could get anything out of the military base.

Later on, people speculated that it was definitely because of Zhong Qianqian's identity that the military took over Cloud Group. Since Zhong Qianqian was the little princess of the Nangong family, if she wanted to return to the Nangong family, then her family business would naturally fall under the Nangong family's protection.

Therefore, this further proved that Zhong Qianqian was the little princess of the Nangong family.

When this piece of news was made public, it could not cause much of a stir for the Nangong family. However, for the Gu family, even though it had only been less than five days, their Gu family had undergone tremendous changes.

Although Selina's punishment against the Gu family had yet to be rescinded, the merchants who wanted to withdraw their collaboration with the Gu family suddenly shouldered the risk of offending Selina and started working with them again.

Meanwhile, those who wanted to rely on the powerful knew that the first-tier families in Emperor District were not the type of crowd that they could hook up with easily. Therefore, they took this opportunity to hang around the Gu family.

The Gu family might have suffered a blow recently, yet it was now the time for them to rise. Therefore, they did not reject anyone and accepted many gifts.

As for those previously unfriendly business partners, after canceling their contracts, the Gu family no longer had any dealings with them. Instead, they extended an olive branch to the influential families who wanted to ride on the Gu family's coattails. 

It was obvious from Gu Zhongcheng and Gu Mingzhe's attitude—in the future, the Gu family would be the Nangong family's in-laws, and the Nangong family was one of the top first-tier wealthy families. Although the Gu family was still a third-tier wealthy family, it was only a matter of time before they became a second-tier wealthy family, or even a top-tier second-tier wealthy family.

From now on, not just any Jane and Joe could interact with the Gu family.

Therefore, other than those who still kept in contact with the Gu family in their most difficult times and those that cooperated with the Gu family, the Gu family now interacted mostly with the prominent figures in society.

Mrs. Gu stopped going to the beauty salon that Mrs. Gu frequented since she started hanging out with the rich madams. These madams did not think too highly of the beauty salon that Mrs. Gu used to frequent.

Although Zhong Kuijun had been taken away and was still in prison, Zhong Kuijun had given the Jiang family two to three months. Zhong Qianqian was going to get married after a mere ten days, therefore Jiang Shuwan decided to attend Zhong Qianqian's wedding first. She intended to wait for Zhong Qianqian to be accepted into the Nangong family first before dealing with Zhong Kuijun.
