Chapter 376: A Child Learns From His Father
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Although Qiao Xi already knew Gu Zheng’s plan, her heart still ached when she saw how determined Gu Weiming was about forcing Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng was clearly Lu Qingyun’s biological son, but he was abandoned by everyone. In order to pave the way for Lu Yan, they completely ignored Gu Zheng’s feelings.
No matter what, Gu Zheng was Gu Weiming’s biological son. He was his first son, but in order to give Huang Lilan a formal status, he made the Gu family’s legitimate child become an illegitimate child. Gu Zheng had been cursed his entire life.
Now, he was still unwilling to let Gu Zheng off and wanted to use him to the extreme.
Qiao Xi’s expression was icy-cold, and her eyes were filled with rage.
Just then, her phone rang. Song Shijing said anxiously, “Young Madam, come over at once!”
…
20 minutes ago.
In the study of the Gu family’s old residence.
Gu Zheng sat lazily on the sofa. The butler reminded him while trembling, “President Gu, the chairman will be here soon. Y-You…”
‘You’re a junior, after all. You can’t just sit on the sofa leisurely when your father is here, right?’
“Huh?” Gu Zheng raised an eyebrow, his face calm.
The butler’s hair stood on end as he said carefully, “Please get up and welcome him.”
Gu Zheng looked indifferent. “Why should I welcome him? Doesn’t he know the way?”
The butler broke out in a cold sweat and stammered, “The chairman… This…”
“If I don’t pick him up, can’t he come over?”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rush of footsteps from outside. Gu Weiming roared and casually raised the vase beside him to smash it at Gu Zheng.
“Bastard!”
Gu Zheng turned around nimbly and the vase fell to the floor, shattering into countless pieces.
Gu Weiming roared, “Traitor!”
Gu Zheng sneered. “Father, you still like smashing things so much. Why don’t I send a few more vases over so that you can smash everything?”
The butler lowered his head in fear.
Gu Weiming clutched his chest and roared, “I’m your father! Are you really talking to me like this? As my son, it’s fine if you don’t welcome me. But I’ve already entered the house and you’re still sitting there. You have no manners at all!”
Gu Zheng leaned lazily against the sofa and did not even look at him. “Everyone says that a child learns from his father. If my father says that I have no upbringing, shouldn’t he reflect on himself?”
Gu Weiming choked: “…”
He was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He did not know when this son of his had completely escaped his control.
He had originally planned to give Gu Zheng a small slice of the pie. The assets of the family had nothing to do with him at all, but Gu Zheng had taken away the power of the Gu family. He even became a famous business magnate in Li City.
Although the Gu family was deeply rooted in Li City, they would definitely have to pay a painful price if they became enemies with Gu Zheng.
No matter what, the Gu family belonged to Lu Yan!
Gu Zheng had occupied his time here long enough. It was time to return it to Lu Yan!
Gu Weiming sat opposite Gu Zheng and said in a commanding tone, “I called you over because I have something serious to tell you. Quickly give up the bid and give that plot of land to Lu Yan!”
The air instantly fell silent.
Gu Zheng’s slender fingers tapped on the table. His expression was calm, and his eyes were slightly gloomy. It was impossible to tell if he was happy or angry. Then, his thin lips parted slightly. “Why should I?”
Gu Weiming frowned. “You’re unwilling?”
Gu Zheng sneered. “Heh, the son you like is really as useless as you.”
“Gu Zheng! Are you crazy? How dare you talk to me like this?” Gu Weiming slammed the table and roared crazily.
“I don’t care how all-powerful you are outside! I’m your father! Everything you have now belongs to the Gu family! You have to do whatever I ask you to do! You have no right to refuse! Even if you have any dissatisfaction, you have to bear with it!”
“Heh.”
Gu Zheng looked up with eyes filled with ridicule. “Father? Are you worthy?”
“You…”
“Do you want to tell me that because I’m an illegitimate child, I have to give everything to Lu Yan?” Gu Zheng took a sip of tea, his eyes calm.
“Chairman Gu, do you think I don’t know the truth? I just want to see what the Gu and Lu families are up to. Do you think I’m easy to bully?”
