Gu Chengqiao naturally never told Hou Jinhua that one very important reason he took an interest in her, chose her as a wife, is because she was the only child of the Hou Family.
Only an only child would wholeheartedly help him grow his business, using her family's resources to help her husband rapidly rise, rather than using the Gu Family's resources to assist her own brothers.
It was also because Hou Jinhua's family could support him that he had repeatedly tolerated her over the years, even cleaning up her messes.
If it weren't for Hou Jinhua compromising the core interests of the Corporation today and causing him to lose face in front of Lu Lingche and the executives of Shengling Group, he would not have lost his temper.
