Chapter 828: No Brothers In Business
Gu Zheng smiled meaningfully. “Young Master Lu didn’t receive the authorization, so Han Ye can sue you at any time. You can only blame Young Master Lu for being too careless and not understanding the situation. What does it have to do with me?”
Qiao Xi: “…” This matter indeed had nothing to do with Gu Zheng, but it was related to Han Ye!
Lu Xiang was so angry that she could not say anything. She could not flare up in front of everyone and could only take deep breaths to relieve her emotions. However, her face was terrifyingly vicious.
The most important thing now was not to question Gu Zheng but to salvage the Lu family’s image. Han Ye had already successfully sued them, and the perfume bottles had to be destroyed. However, even if they destroyed the bottles and changed the packaging, everyone would know that they were the original perfumes. They would still feel conflicted about purchasing them.
However, if they really destroyed all the finished perfumes and developed new perfumes, Lu Corporation would suffer a huge loss. Hence, their only way was to immediately look for Han Ye. No matter what, they had to make Han Ye forgive them and prove that all of this was a misunderstanding.
Lu Yan gritted his teeth and said, “I only confirmed the results after asking around. How could Mr. Han Ye sue us? Someone must be deliberately harming Lu Corporation’s interests.
“Everyone, I’ll give you a satisfactory answer for today’s matter and do my best to salvage Lu Corporation’s image and losses.”
After Lu Yan finished speaking, he looked fiercely at Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng raised his glass indifferently and smiled.
Not long after, the news of Lu Corporation being sued by Han Ye was suppressed. The platform explained to the public that the packaging of Lu Corporation’s perfumes needed to be changed. They did not say that the packaging was infringing on rights.
However, this could only temporarily suppress the news. Before long, it would still be exposed.
On the other hand, Lu Yan was still anxiously investigating, but the result was that Han Ye was no longer alive. Then, he found an important piece of information. The person who was suing had the surname Gu. Even though the information was hidden very well, he still found some clues.
The person’s surname was Gu?
Lu Yan flew into a rage. The person suing was surnamed Gu? How could this have nothing to do with Gu Zheng? Even if it was not him, he must have instructed someone else to do it.
......
He glanced at the banquet hall and walked toward Gu Zheng. Everyone’s gaze followed his footsteps to Gu Zheng.
Lu Yan could not suppress the anger in his heart. His gentle mask had already cracked as he questioned, “Gu Zheng, did you sue Lu Corporation?”
Boom!!!
A thunderclap exploded in everyone’s hearts, and they were dumbfounded.
Qiao Xi sat lazily on the sofa and looked at Lu Yan with a smile.
Gu Zheng’s expression was indifferent. “Do you have evidence?”
Lu Yan snorted and slammed his phone on the table. “I’ve already found out that the person suing us is surnamed Gu. Moreover, Lu Corporation’s perfumes were taken off the shelves. The person who would benefit from this is you, Gu Zheng. Other than the Gu family, there are no other families in Li City with the surname Gu. Who else could it be but you?”
Old Master Lu had already thought that Gu Zheng was behind this. Now that Lu Yan had also produced strong evidence, he could determine that this grandson of his was indeed an ingrate. He actually dared to sue the Lu family.
Did he know how much impact this would have on the Lu family? The loss of perfumes was only a part of it. The most important thing was their reputation. Many people would not buy Lu Corporation’s products anymore because of this.
When Lu Xiang heard this, she instantly roared, “Gu Zheng!”
Gu Zheng slowly looked up and said casually, “Young Master Lu, is that all?”
Lu Yan gasped and gritted his teeth. “Gu Zheng, can you guarantee that this has nothing to do with you? Can you explain why the person suing us has the surname Gu?”
Everyone looked at Gu Zheng in unison. Everyone knew very well that even if Gu Zheng did not personally sue them, it would still have something to do with him.
There were no brothers in the business world. It was not strange for Gu Zheng to set up Lu Corporation for Gu Corporation, but such methods were really despicable, so everyone thought that Gu Zheng would not admit it no matter what.
Unexpectedly, Gu Zheng nodded and smiled indifferently. “It’s indeed not a coincidence. I didn’t expect Young Master Lu to be so smart.”
The moment that was said, the entire venue exploded. Only then did everyone realize that… Gu Zheng had admitted it?
Lu Yan’s expression instantly turned ferocious. “Gu Zheng! Didn’t you say that this has nothing to do with you? Are you lying to me?”
“Young Master Lu, you’ve misunderstood. What I meant was that you were the one who rashly sold the perfumes, causing Lu Corporation to be sued. This has nothing to do with me. I just did what I should have done.”
