Chapter 516: Zhou Yuan Is Angry
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It seemed like there was a conflict between the sisters.
However, this family was indeed a little biased. From what Gu Man said, it was the girl that attacked first, but this family did not distinguish between right or wrong and reprimanded Gu Man. How could this be? He had to teach them a lesson.
As Zhou Yuan spoke, Gu Man’s hand loosened slightly. Qu Bei hurriedly took this opportunity to break free. She was already furious, but because of Zhou Yuan’s words, she cursed, “What do you know? You’re being nosy.”
The incomparably vulgar words caused all of Zhou Yuan’s words to be stuck in his throat, causing his face to turn red.
“Patriarch, how can you say that?” Zhou Yuan finally managed to speak after holding it in for a long time. The anger in his heart was surging in his chest, but he could not say anything since the person in front of him was the student’s parent.
Qu Bei glanced coldly at Zhou Yuan, the disdain in her eyes undisguised. “If you really have the ability, persuade her not to attack our family again.”
With that, Qu Bei still took two to three steps back in fear, afraid that Gu Man would attack again.
A trace of mockery flashed across Gu Man’s narrowed eyes. “What do you mean by I attacked your family? Weren’t you the ones who attacked first? Do you need me to remind you about the Huang Family again?”
When Gu Yuan heard this, a guilty expression appeared on his face, but he then calmed down. “But you shouldn’t have done this. You know that the Gu Family is being insulted by tens of thousands of people and their shares have already fallen by a few points.”
At the mention of this, Gu Yuan could not control his anger. The shareholders in the company had already pressured him. That group of people had indeed been coveting his position. Otherwise, they would not have pressured him so quickly.
“What has this got to do with me? Don’t forget that Gu Rou was the one that insisted on pursuing the matter to the end in the beginning, and Gu Rou was the one who wanted to kidnap me. You’re here to ask me for an explanation now?” Gu Man’s eyes were cold as she glared at Gu Yuan and Qu Bei like an icicle.
Zhou Yuan was shocked by Gu Man’s words as he stared at Gu Yuan and Qu Bei in shock.
He had thought that it was just a simple sisterly argument, but he did not expect that it involved kidnapping and other things. How could a parent do such a thing? It was simply ridiculous.
“Mr. Gu, forgive me for not letting Gu Man stay here. This is a school, not a place for you to do whatever you want! If you do anything rash again, I’ll definitely call the police!” Zhou Yuan’s tone turned cold as his brows furrowed tightly.
The moment Zhou Yuan mentioned calling the police, Gu Yuan and Qu Bei’s expressions instantly changed, as if they had thought of something bad. They pursed their lips. In the end, the intense intent to kill shot out of Gu Yuan’s eyes, but it was quickly suppressed. “Gu Man, you can’t be smug for long. Old Master Zhang has already made a move.”
With that, Gu Yuan flicked his sleeve and left. Qu Bei was a step behind. When she passed by Gu Man, she even reached out to push her. However, her hand was not very fast and Gu Man dodged it. She staggered and almost fell.
Qu Bei’s face was ashen as she glared at Gu Man. Seeing her expressionless face, she was even angrier. However, when she heard Gu Yuan’s urging, she could only quicken her pace and follow.
Zhou Yuan was so angry that smoke was about to rise from the top of his head. He slammed the office door shut and walked angrily to his desk. He picked up the cold water on the table in an attempt to suppress the anger in his heart.
Looking at Gu Man, who was still standing at the door, Zhou Yuan suppressed the anger in his heart and tried his best to soften his voice. “Gu Man, why didn’t you tell me when your family encountered such a thing?”
Gu Man tilted her head, her eyes filled with confusion.
Zhou Yuan coughed twice or thrice. “Although this is a family matter, it still involves your personal safety. If you encounter any difficulties, you can look for me. I will do my best to help you.”
“It’s a small matter.” Gu Man put her hands in her pockets. There was no expression on her face, as if the farce just now had not happened..
