Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself

1334 Insulting Him With A Billion Yuan

Xia Mengyan held her breath and looked at Gu Zheng expectantly.

That was a billion yuan! As long as Gu Zheng agreed, they would immediately move the betrothal gift of a billion yuan to Longwan Residential. Gu Zheng was so young, handsome, and outstanding. He could have many women by his side. Qiao Xi was very beautiful, but she was not the only beautiful woman.

He was already hesitating, which meant that Qiao Xi’s status in his heart wasn’t that important. Under the temptation of a billion, most people would be unable to restrain themselves.

Everyone in the Xia family looked at Gu Zheng with anticipation. Gu Zheng said slowly, “Chairman Xia, are you insulting me?”

The smugness on Xia Cheng’s face froze instantly. Could it be that Gu Zheng thought that a billion was too little?

Before Xia Cheng could speak, Gu Zheng sneered. He was already extraordinarily handsome, and when he smiled, he exuded the charm of a mature man with a trace of roguishness.

However, in the eyes of the Xia family, such a smile was like a death warrant. It made one shudder.

Xia Cheng’s heart trembled. He had a bad feeling.

The next second, Gu Zheng said calmly, “Chairman Xia, do you think I’d sell my wife for a billion yuan? Just because you can do such a thing doesn’t mean that the others are as greedy as you. As for the collaboration, I’m not the same kind of person as you. I’m not willing to collude with you.”

The living room instantly fell silent.

Song Shiyu’s eyes were filled with admiration. As expected of the president. He did not even use dirty words when scolding others. One sentence from him could make Xia Cheng feel ashamed. The president had not only scolded Xia Cheng but also Madam Tan. She and Xia Cheng were the same kinds of people!

Xia Cheng’s face was livid as he suppressed his anger. “President Gu, are you disagreeing?”

Gu Zheng did not even bother to look at Xia Cheng. He frowned. His voice was calm, but it was filled with strong killing intent. “What? Chairman Xia, are you threatening me?”

“I’ve made myself very clear. Chairman Xia, you accepted the two billion yuan betrothal gift, so you naturally can’t go back on your word. Hence, Xia Mengyan has to marry Young Master Tan today!”

Silence, dead silence!

Xia Cheng’s expression was as dark as ink. He gritted his teeth and said, “President Gu, Mengyan is from the Xia family. You can’t interfere in our Xia family’s marriage.”

“Oh! So this is the big shot of Li City! The president of Gu Corporation, Gu Zheng?” Madam Tan walked forward elegantly and greeted him with a smile.

She had a voluptuous figure and was wearing Y Nation’s style clothes. Her face was exquisite, and she looked like a charming middle-aged woman. Although her tone was gentle, Qiao Xi could still sense the disdain in her eyes.

As expected, her expression changed the next second. “President Gu, it’s not your place to interfere in the marriage of our Brook family. My son has taken a liking to Miss Qiao, so she has to leave with us today. I hope you can think it through. Offending the Brook family won’t do you any good.”

Song Shiyu snorted. “You’re really interesting. It’s true that we can’t interfere in the Brooke family’s marriage, but you want our young madam to marry into your family. Of course, we can’t agree. Not to mention that our young madam and the president are already married. Even if the young madam isn’t married, you can’t snatch someone away just like this. The Brooke family is bullying others, so why can’t we say anything?”

Madam Tan sneered. “Who do you think you are? The Brook family is a noble family in Y Nation, and I’m the noble Madam Brook. Are you worthy of criticizing me?

“President Gu, I’ll give you a chance. As long as you hand Qiao Xi over and let me bring her back to Y Nation, I can let bygones be bygones. If you insist on protecting Qiao Xi, then don’t blame me for being heartless!”

Gu Zheng sneered, but his smile did not reach his eyes.

“Why are you smiling? Let me tell you, our Brook family—”

“Madam Tan.” Qiao Xi suddenly interrupted the other party. “I remember that the marriage contract between the Xia and Brook families clearly states that the person who’ll marry Young Master Tan Yu is Madam Xia Lan’s daughter. Since the marriage contract has already been issued, wouldn’t it be breaking the rules if the person who marries Young Master Tan isn’t Xia Lan’s daughter? Our country values rules the most. If this matter blows up, the conflict won’t just be between two families. Perhaps it’ll be between two countries, or perhaps the scandal of the Brook family won’t be able to stay hidden anymore. In that case, your son might really be in trouble.

“The Brook family is indeed a noble family in Y Nation, but you came to Li City to snatch me away. Moreover, Gu Zheng’s identity is extraordinary. If the matter blows up, you’ll be in the wrong.”
