Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself

Chapter 1259 - 1259 Unaccountably Solicitous



1259 Unaccountably Solicitous

Qiao Xi struggled to get up from Gu Zheng’s body, and her face was red as she glared fiercely at Gu Yao. Was this kid asking for a beating again? He actually dared to tease her and Gu Zheng?

Gu Zheng stood up and calmly straightened his clothes. His expression was calm without the slightest awkwardness.

Gu Yao pointed at Gu Zheng while trembling and shouted, “Gu Zheng, I really didn’t expect you to be such a person! Although this is a private room, how can you fool around here? You’re already an adult. Don’t you have any self-control?”

The moment that was said, the private room fell silent. Gu Zheng was still sitting on the sofa with a straight face. Gu Yao looked up at Gu Zheng. The other party did not seem to have any intention of getting angry, so he heaved a sigh of relief.

“Gu Yao.” The next second, Gu Zheng suddenly called out to Gu Yao with a faint smile. His gentle voice sounded. “You’re talkative, aren’t you? If you say another word, I’ll sew your mouth shut.”

Gu Yao: “…”

Damn! Gu Zheng was so scary! His expression was clearly so gentle, but the words he said were so terrifying. Gu Yao suddenly felt his entire body hurt, and his heart trembled.

Then, Gu Yao seemed to have lost his memory. He no longer mentioned what had just happened and complained about the He family’s actions in front of Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng listened quietly, and his expression did not change from beginning to end. He even leaned lazily on the sofa and narrowed his eyes. “If they’re willing to give in, then let them. It’s a good thing for the company.”

Gu Yao was stunned and said angrily, “He’s unaccountably solicitous. He must be up to no good! He Weinian must have ill intentions. If we really accept this money, won’t we fall into his trap?”

“Heh…” Gu Zheng sneered. His voice was still gentle, but his entire body was filled with coldness. “Since Elder He insists on giving it to us, of course, we have to accept it.”

Since He Weinian was willing to sacrifice money to maintain his image and reputation, he would take advantage of the situation and go along with the He family. Why not?

Gu Yao choked. Compared to the extremely calm Gu Zheng, he was like a panicked rabbit. The He family grabbed his ears, and he fled in a sorry state.

The anger in his heart surged. He could not help but roar, “Is the He family crazy?! Why would they give in so easily? Don’t the shareholders have any objections? They gave me such a large sum of money for no reason. Are they sure there’s a trap waiting for me to jump into?”

Gu Zheng smiled. “Gu Yao, you’ve finally grown up.”

He straightened up slightly and said calmly, “He Weinian naturally has his reasons for doing this. Every step he takes is to pave the way for the future. He has sacrificed a sum of money now, but he’ll take it back from us in the future.”

Gu Yao looked confused. “You clearly know that He Weinian has ill intentions, so why are you ignoring him and letting him do this?”

“What else can we do? It’s a good thing that he chose to give in to us. If we refuse, it’ll seem that we don’t know what’s good for us.”

Qiao Xi understood in her heart. The He family was putting on an act, and they urgently wanted to display their selflessness and kindness in front of everyone. They would naturally not let others have any evidence against them, so if they said they would give in, they would. They would not play any tricks for the time being.

This matter was a good thing for Gu Yao and Gu Zheng. What reason did they have to refuse? Moreover, if they did not cooperate with He Weinian’s acting, how would they know He Weinian’s true motive?

Gu Zheng raised his eyes slightly to look at Qiao Xi and said in a gentle voice, “You’re already very busy every day. You don’t have to worry about the He family’s matters, lest you hurt yourself.”

Gu Yao said, “How can I not care? He’s already riding on my head. Who knows what he’ll do next?! I don’t want to be schemed against by him!”

Song Shijing: “…”

The president was clearly speaking to Young Madam. What was Second Young Master doing?

The next day, Xia Corporation was going to send someone to the Luo family’s residence in Li City. They wanted to discuss the details of the collaboration with Luo Qing in person and bring the designs over for the Luo family to choose from.

Xia Cheng personally sent Xia Mengyan to the villa, and she was followed by many higher-ups of Xia Corporation. Everyone waited at the door happily to witness this glorious moment.

“Mengyan, the Luo family is different from the outside world. Their family probably practices many rules. You have to be careful and not cause trouble. Although you’re not the person in charge, you’re the future heir of our Xia family. You represent the entire Xia family. You can’t embarrass the Xia family!” Xia Cheng reminded softly.
