Chapter 288: Gu Changye Defends Zheng Against Brother Cheng
Seeing this, everyone snapped out of their trances and continued to gossip and make comments about the situation.
“She’s so young and not only does she want to ruin someone’s relationship, she’s even so disrespectful towards her father!”
“He’s already made it clear and yet she still wants to pester him. How shameless!”
“If I were her, I would have left long ago! I’ve never seen someone as thick-skinned as her!”
…
Bang!
Everyone was gossiping incessantly amongst themselves while watching the commotion. Gradually, their comments began to get increasingly malicious!
All of a sudden, an object fell onto the ground, accompanied with a loud thud and sounds of something shattering. Everyone got a great shock and immediately fell silent.
They looked over to see that it was Gu Changye who had dropped his wine gla.s.s onto the ground, from the second floor.
A pool of red liquid began spreading ominously on the ground.
Gu Changye raised his brows and his narrow eyes moved upward. He barked impatiently, “How noisy! You either shut up and watch the show quietly, or… get out!”
All of a sudden, everyone shuddered in fear.
It was only because Gu Changye was the one who interjected. He was the true head of the Gu Family and was a ruthless businessman. He was also the guaranteed successor of the Gu Family’s business.
Rumor had it that he had become eccentric and developed an erratic temperament ever since he got into an accident that left him s.e.xually impotent for life.
Now that they had witnessed his behaviour in person, they were all certain that the rumors were true!
“As for you, Miss Luo.”
Gu Changye said while glancing at the young Luo Zheng.
He then stood up slowly and made his way down the stairs. Appearing laid back and dangerous, he said, “Miss Luo, no one is allowed to stir trouble at my home! All troublemakers have to pay the price for doing so, but…”
He paused deliberately and turned to look at Bo Hancheng.
The two of them held each other’s gazes and there were unfathomable emotions in their eyes.
Seeing that Gu Changye was making his way forward, everyone moved to the sides in fear to make way for him. No one dared to stop him at all!
He continued, “But, it doesn’t take much to make an exception sometimes! That’ll depend on if you’re worth it or not, Miss Luo…”
Gu Changye shifted his gaze onto her again.
He then glared at Mu Tianwei coldly with a disdainful gaze in his narrow eyes. “As her father, how can you not look after your daughter? Since she has questions to ask, let her do it.”
Slightly stunned by Gu Changye’s unexpected words, Mu Tianwei hurriedly let go of her and said cowardly, “Yes, yes…”
Gu Changye then walked towards Luo Zheng and stared at Bo Hancheng. “Mr. Bo, Miss Luo is such a beauty. She just wants to ask you a question. Why do you have to be so stingy with your words?”
At the same time, he took a quick glance at Mu Nianqing before looking away in disdain.
Everyone watched as Gu Changye grabbed a strand of Luo Zheng’s hair and twirled it around his slender finger. “If I don’t already have Simei, a beauty like her… would really win my heart!”
Bo Hancheng clenched his fists tightly as he subconsciously found the scene before him to be an eyesore. “That would depend on whether she’s worth being doted on or not!”
Luo Zheng trembled because she knew that he was referring to her.
To him, I’ve never been worth it, right?
“You never know unless you try, right?”
Gu Changye questioned with a sinister smile.
Seeing that Luo Zheng did not resist Gu Changye’s touch, Bo Hancheng’s eyes turned gloomy and he deliberately gibed in a bid to insult him. “Others may try but I don’t know about you… Young Master Gu. Regardless of whether she’s worth i or not, you definitely can’t appreciate her, so what’s the point of thinking so much!?!” <
