The Zhang family dominated the capital. It would be a struggle for him in the next 10 years.

As for City Shen, he was hoping that Mayor Liu would do him a favor and let him sell the high-end mansions that he had on hand; his two other construction projects to be completed successfully; and he would be able to smoothly picked the locations of his three future projects.

Nevertheless, Mayor Liu wouldn’t even give him the time of day. Even Secretary Zhang, whom they had been working with for many years, had been ambiguous in his attitude toward him.

Gu Jiangxin was completely frantic!

“Still struggling with it?”

A low and deep voice rang from behind.

Speaking of the devil.

Huo Sishen, who used to stay in the study all night long, now would come out and wander around from time to time like the big boss in a game.

Mainly he would visit the bedroom to see what she was doing, how she was feeling, whether she was thirsty or hungry, or whether she was sitting or standing in the positions as instructed by the doctors.

If only he caught her not following the instructions to the T, he could lecture her all night long.

Gu Shishi had no idea that old man Gu Jiangxin had his heart set on getting his hand on one of her work.

It didn’t matter how much or little did Gu Jiangxin knew about paintings. All in all, he had yet to see those three paintings but he was very determined to obtain them.

The next day, he sent someone to the exhibition. First to take photos of them then reached out to the organizer for the contact information of the artist.

Unfortunately, they had only been asked the same question from too many others!

She was not able to blend in!

The madams from the Li or Chen families wouldn’t give her the time of their day!

“Did I do something wrong? Even though they didn’t come, I’ve still sent over my homemade cookies.”

Gu Jiangxin lowered his eyes.

Which one of these wealth wives would enter the kitchen while they socialize?

These women were pampered. They didn’t even know how to make tomato and egg stir fry. Rather, they didn’t want to; they didn’t need to.
