Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Song Shijing fell silent again. In fact, he really wanted to ask the president if he was sure that the Lu family had bullied Young Madam and that was why she attacked. Was it possible that Young Madam had heard about the Lu family’s plan and wanted to take the initiative?
Could it be that in the president’s eyes, Young Madam was really weak and kind? Did she only know how to resist when she was bullied? However, in his eyes, Young Madam had never been a weak little flower. To be able to know the Lu family’s scheme in advance, drug Chairman Lu, and even kill the Lu family’s plan was not something a weak woman could do.
However, Song Shijing did not dare to say it in front of Gu Zheng. He could only say tactfully, “President, beauty is in the eye of the beholder!”
At this moment, Qiao Xi was already very full in the private room, but she still could not help but take a few more bites. After all, it was very rare for her to eat so many of her favorite dishes. She was slightly unable to control herself.
However, she did not understand why Gu Zheng looked a little angry just now. How did he know that she had drugged Old Master Lu?
Previously, when Lu Muxue framed her, she had sent people from Ling Pavilion to follow Lu Muxue. She even sent people to infiltrate the Lu family and found out about the Lu family’s plan. Apart from using public opinion to frame Gu Zheng, Old Master Lu also decided to expel Gu Zheng from the Lu family next month on the grounds that Gu Zheng was an unfilial grandson who angered him to the point of falling sick because of the shares.
When she knew that Old Master Lu was going to pretend to be sick, she thought that she might as well go all out and poison Old Master Lu to prevent him from pretending to be sick. Now that he was really unconscious, there was no need for him to pretend anymore. However, she did not expect that Gu Zheng would still notice it even though she had done it so secretly.
Qiao Xi’s face was filled with helplessness. She should do a better job in the future and not let Gu Zheng discover her. Otherwise, her image as a weak woman would be ruined.
Seeing that Gu Zheng was not back yet but she was already full, she planned to go out to digest her food. Unexpectedly, as soon as she pushed the door open, she bumped into someone she did not want to see.
Lu Yan stood at the door with an ugly expression. “Miss Qiao, can we talk?”
When Qiao Xi saw that the person standing at the door was Lu Yan, she was instantly agitated. She was just about to mock him when she suddenly choked on her saliva. The spicy taste in her mouth filled her mouth, and tears instantly flowed down.
Lu Yan instantly choked. “…” Why was she crying? Was she acting again?
On the other hand, Gu Yao was representing Gu Corporation’s branch company to discuss a collaboration with a few entrepreneurs. Gu Yao invited the people there for a meal together, and those people were also very polite to Gu Yao. However, when everyone was walking toward the private room, Gu Yao suddenly stopped in his tracks, and his body stiffened.
Everyone followed his gaze and saw that the stunning Mrs. Gu’s eyes were red and tears were streaming down her face. She was covering her mouth as if she was suppressing her tears.
At this moment, the person standing in front of her was… Lu Yan! The Lu family had just slandered President Gu and Mrs. Gu. What did Lu Yan say in front of Mrs. Gu that made her so sad?
This man was actually bullying a weak woman!
The scene in front of them made everyone have different expressions. They all looked at Gu Yao. After all, he was also a member of the Gu family, so only he could deal with this situation.
