The head of Huacheng's most prominent wealthy family, a man of considerable power and influence. He is the father of Jiang Wan's twins, having spent the night with her after she was drugged. Gu Shilan is described as having sharp, defined features, a high nose bridge, and an exquisite jawline. He is reserved and authoritative, yet shows concern for Jiang Wan, such as when he rescues her from a speeding Maybach and insists on discussing the child. He uses his resources to help Jiang Wan, including sending his assistant Zhang Qian to drive her home in a Rolls-Royce Cullinan. Their families have been close friends for generations, and Jiang Wan should technically address him as 'Uncle' by seniority.
