Gu Man felt that it was a pity. She looked at her hand that was holding the door handle and finally let go of it to put it in her pocket. “Don’t tell me you’re going to plead for mercy for those sc.u.mbags from the Gu family?”
Old Master Zhang slapped his thigh heavily. The moment his hand touched his thigh, it made a crisp sound.
Gu Man looked over and couldn’t help but sigh. Didn’t Old Master Zhang hurt? He was really ruthless to himself.
Old Master Zhang didn’t know if it hurt, but his expression couldn’t be said to be nice. “No wonder Gu Yuan said that you’re difficult to discipline. No matter how ugly your family’s situation is, that’s your family’s matter. You shouldn’t let it spread. Now, the Gu family is in trouble. Although I know they’re in the wrong, you shouldn’t expose it.”
Gu Man nodded when she heard this. Just as Old Master Zhang thought that she was listening, Gu Man suddenly stared at Old Master Zhang. “I agree with you that they were in the wrong. I don’t agree with anything else.”
Old Master Zhang was so angry that his breathing stopped. He raised his hand and pointed in Gu Man’s direction. Just as he was about to reprimand her, Gu Man slapped him away.
“Don’t point at me. You don’t have any feelings for me, so don’t act like an elder in front of me. I won’t fall for this.” Gu Man’s eyes were as cold as ice.
Even the wily old fox, Old Master Zhang, could not help but tremble when he met that gaze.
Why did this little girl have such an aura?
However, Old Master Zhang was still a wily old fox. He quickly suppressed the trembling in his heart and stared at Gu Man with a burning gaze. His thoughts had already changed after one conversation.
This Gu Man was not as useless as Gu Yuan said. At the very least, her aura was not something that ordinary people could cultivate.
He calmed himself down and decided not to educate her like an elder to a junior. Instead, he took on an equal att.i.tude. “Alright, let’s not talk about that anymore. Let’s talk about a cooperation.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Man was no longer as frivolous as before. Old Master Zhang finally understood that this little girl was amenable to coaxing but not coercion.
After finding the right conversation posture, the rest of the discussion went exceptionally smoothly.
“Of course you can if you want me to stop pursuing the Gu family’s matter. After all, I’m not that difficult to talk to.” Gu Man crossed her legs and clasped her hands together, the corners of her lips curling up slightly.
She clearly had a clear and bright face, but in Old Master Zhang’s eyes, she was a profiteer.
He had been in the business circle for so many years, but no one had ever made him feel like this. This Gu Man in front of him had refreshed his worldview one after another.
Old Master Zhang’s expression was normal. “Feel free to mention it. I’ll do my best as long as it’s within my ability.”
Gu Man’s lips curled into a mocking smile. Old Master Zhang was quite careful. Wasn’t this completely up to him to decide within his abilities?
However, Gu Man was not the kind of person who could be kneaded by others. “Don’t talk about ‘within my ability’.You can definitely do what 1 say, so you just have to agree.”
His arrogant words rendered Old Master Zhang speechless for a moment. He tilted his head slightly to look at the girl beside him. She looked even more magnanimous than the whole of Gu Yuan’s family.
“Then 1 also want to know what your request is.”
Old Master Zhang was still afraid that Gu Man would spout nonsense and want his entire Zhang Corporation, so he was still careful.
When Gu Man heard this, she couldn’t help but sneer. “Don’t worry, I’m not interested in your Zhang Corporation.”
Old Master Zhang should be happy to hear this, but at this moment, his expression instantly darkened. What did she mean by not interested in the Zhang Corporation? He had established such a big corporation for so long. He did not believe that she was not interested. It must be on the surface.
Old Master Zhang thought to himself.
“Firstly, don’t let Zhang Yue hang around in front of me again. Also, our engagement doesn’t count.” At the mention of Zhang Yue, Gu Man’s face revealed a disgusted expression..
