Destined (2023) Episode 8

Jun 25, 2023

With Gu Jiusi's ingenious plan, Liu Yuru can start a business like a duck to water, she does everything by herself, and doesn't miss any small details. She ran almost all over the city, met Gu Jiusi by chance, got into his carriage, stuffed some things into her belly, and then went to other shops. In the evening, she left early just because there was a bill that had not been settled. Gu Jiusi went to see her after dinner and learned that Boss Zhou was very satisfied, so he decided to come over tomorrow to sign and pay the deposit. But Hengdao came out with a businessman named Luo Zishang, whose price was 2.50% lower than that of the Gu family, and he could deliver the goods one month earlier. Liu Yuru was disappointed, but she could only accept the result. At the same time, Gu Jiusi also learned about this from Mu Nan.

Gu Jiusi took time out to play with his two friends, Chen Xun and Yang Wenchang, and learned from them that Luo Zishang had just been promoted to the title of playboy in Yuzhou City. Luo Zishang asked Liu Yuru to meet at Cuiming Building, and proposed cooperation. If the Gu family can withdraw from the competition, he would take 30% of the profits and transfer them to her in his own name. Liu Yuru categorically refused, and Luo Zishang tried to sway Liu Yuru's decision with various remarks. But Liu Yuru said that Gu Jiusi is different from others, he treats his feelings purely and sincerely, even if one day he wants to reconcile with him, he will still respect and treat himself with kindness. After that, Liu Yuru made an appointment with Boss Zhou to show him the samples.

Liu Yuru had already discovered that Boss Zhou was not a businessman, but a member of the army. This trip was to buy military supplies for the army, so the quality of these samples was first-class, very suitable for use in the army. Liu Yuru is full of sincerity. If Boss Zhou decides to cooperate with the Gu family, he can go to Cuiming Building tomorrow. A question from Luo Zishang caused quite a stir in Liu Yuru's heart. Although she pretended not to care at the time, she still had doubts afterwards when she remembered why the Gu family was so anxious to marry her. She was about to ask why the Gu family married herself, who was from a cloth merchant, when Yin Hong came in and said that Boss Zhou had been staying at the inn today and did not go to sign with the Luo family. In this way, it is more likely that he will cooperate with the Gu family.

Gu Jiusi told his father about Luo Zishang, but he only knew that he was from the Luo family in Jinling, which was also a famous family in the past. He was the only one who escaped from the disaster of the Luo family in the fire. Wang Rongqiang, the son of the Jizhou Jiedushi, robbed women and committed all kinds of crimes. Luo Zishang told Wang Jiedu and his father and son that the Gu family's backer was about to collapse. The Jiedushi knew that since he wanted to know the holy will of the Eastern Capital, he was definitely not a white merchant. Luo Zishang's help was not in vain. After the Gu family collapsed, he wanted 30% of the Gu family's wealth, and also wanted the Gu family to be destroyed. Gu Jiusi lost everything and died in front of him. Liu Yuru was waiting in the Cuiming Building, and she had no idea whether Zhou Ye would come or not.

Chen Xun and Yang Wenchang made fun of Gu Jiusi's previous nickname for Liu Yuru. Gu Jiusi got angry, but Yang Wenchang suddenly found out that Gu Jiusi defended Liu Yuru in every possible way. Could it be that he fell in love with her? Liu Yuru and Zhou Ye had negotiated a business deal, and were about to leave Cuiming Tower, Wang Rong quickly led someone to block their way, and he said a lot of obscenities, insulting people's reputation. Anyway, it was Wang Rong who offended first, and Zhou Ye, who was born in the army, was not polite, and the two sides immediately drew their swords to meet each other.
