Chapter 167 Luo Zhiwei, what are we?
Gu Hanlin's face instantly turned cold: "Third brother, what do you mean?"
"Second Brother, I didn't mean anything by it. I was just raising a question. The Gu family and the Lu family can handle this project. There's no need for you to bring in an outsider..."
Gu Hanlin interrupted Gu Hanchi directly: "Third brother, company matters are not something you or I can interfere with. This matter..."
"I requested that Bei Xiao be included in this collaboration." Old Master Gu retorted coldly, "Bei Xiao is not an outsider. I hope you can understand what you should and shouldn't say. If there's a next time... don't come to gatherings like this again."
Gu Hanchi gave a mocking sneer, glancing at the old man with a sarcastic look: "Dad, since I'm in your way, I'll leave now and won't be in your way anymore."
He was about to leave in his wheelchair when Gu Hancheng quickly grabbed him, preventing him from going: "Third brother, don't throw a tantrum."
"Brother...you also think I'm making a fuss? Am I wrong?"
Gu Hanchi retorted, "Luo Zhiwei and the others had already forgiven me before, and they even openly stated that they didn't want to have anything to do with the Gu family. So what do they mean now? Do they want to cling to the Gu family?"
"Is that DNA test result, which is difficult to verify, really that important? Or is it that you, brother, have already decided in your heart that they are your children and want to bring them back?"
Hearing such absurd and unreasonable words, Gu Hancheng felt very tired. He didn't understand why the third brother hated him so much for recognizing the child.
The older brother has a child. Shouldn't the younger brother be happy?
"Third brother, you were the one who made the mistake back then. It's understandable that Weiwei and Beixiao have grievances. I'm very happy that they're able to come to this meal for the sake of the old man."
Gu Hancheng's face was frosty, and his eyes were filled with disappointment: "Third brother, I don't understand why you're stopping them. Aren't they both my children?"
Gu Hanchi sneered, "I will never have children in my life, so why do you think you can have your own?"
Gu Hancheng, not a chance.
If I'm not happy in this life, you can forget about being happy too.
I will drag you down to your death, so what if they are your children?
I will not let them into the Gu family. If they remain obstinate, I will kill them.
"Since you think I'm preventing you from recognizing each other, then so be it, I don't care." Gu Hanchi snorted coldly and left in a huff, but in Gu Hancheng's eyes, this younger brother was just throwing a tantrum.
He's not a bad person at heart; he probably just can't stand seeing him get scammed.
But those are his two children; how could he possibly lie to him?
"Why isn't Grandpa Gu going after them?"
Gu Beixiao had a mocking look on his face, and his body temperature of 37 degrees Celsius made his words chilling.
"You... Bei Xiao, how could you say that, your third uncle..."
"I don't have a third uncle who wanted to kill my sister. He... doesn't deserve it!"
Gu Beixiao could tell that Gu Hanchi had already decided to kill him. As long as he made one more mistake, they could eradicate him completely. They had even relaxed their vigilance towards Zhao Tingguo for a while.
Gu Hanchi, don't let me down.

Lu Jingxiao dragged Luo Zhiwei home, while Gu Beixiao took Gu Youran back and didn't follow them.
Back home, Lu Jingxiao hugged Luo Zhiwei tightly: "Baby... let's stay away from the Gu family, okay?"
"What's wrong?" Luo Zhiwei smiled slightly. "I think the old man is doing quite well."
"I don't want to involve other members of the Gu family in my feud with Gu Hanchi." If it was the old master and old lady who were behind it, she certainly wouldn't let anyone in the Gu family off the hook.
But... the old man and the others didn't, and even when they knew about her and Gu Beixiao, they were very enthusiastic towards them.
"Lu Jingxiao, the rest of the Gu family..."
"That won't do, baby. You can't think they're good to you. They all have ulterior motives. They want you to... to go back to the Gu family. They all have their own agendas."
Lu Jingxiao accused without hesitation, and even hugged the person tighter.
“You also have your own agenda, and yours is more obvious than theirs.”
Luo Zhi smiled and joked, leaning lazily against Lu Jingxiao.
Lu Jingxiao paused slightly, then realized what he meant and smiled ingratiatingly, "That's different. I'm after you as a person. If you don't want to marry into the Lu family, I'm willing to go back to the Luo family with you."
As long as it's Weiwei, it doesn't matter if it's the Lu family or the Luo family, isn't it all their home?
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
How come I never noticed before that Lu Jingxiao is so shameless?
"Stop it, I'm a little tired and I want to rest. Let's go to work together tomorrow. I tend to overthink things at home."
Luo Zhiwei discussed with the man in front of her. She didn't want to stay at home. At home... with nothing to do, she would overthink things, magnify what had happened before, and then torture and deplete herself.
"Okay, then come to work with me. You don't need to do any heavy work, just stay by my side."
Luo Zhiwei did not refuse.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
She didn't care about these things; as long as she wasn't left alone at home, she was fine.
Lu Jingxiao knew that Luo Zhiwei's words were all excuses; she had a purpose and something she wanted to do.
If he stopped her now, Weiwei might get angry, and he didn't want her to be angry with him at this time, so he had to agree.
"There's an auction tomorrow night. I was originally going to have my assistant check if there were any good items, but now... you'll come with me tomorrow, just to pass the time. What do you think?"
Lu Jingxiao wanted to be with Luo Zhiwei at all times, never letting her leave his side.
Luo Zhiwei nodded slightly: "Okay, you're the president, I'll follow your arrangements."
Lu Jingxiao: "???"
What's this?
I wanted to go with you as a couple, but you treated it like business?
Luo Zhiwei, you...you know how to drive me crazy.
He took a deep breath and gave a haughty snort: "Luo Zhiwei, what is this between us?"
"Superiors and subordinates."
Lu Jingxiao: "..."
He accused Weiwei in a fit of rage, "Weiwei, our relationship is so close, can't we take it a step further? Anyway, you want to find someone to get a marriage certificate with, and I also want to marry you, otherwise we..."
Undisguised 'ambition'.
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
"You wanted to get a marriage certificate with Gu Beixiao before, but now he's your brother, so you can't get a marriage certificate with him anymore. The only handsome, rich, and loving person by your side is me. If you don't consider me, who will you consider?"
If possible, he would rather force himself on Weiwei and get a marriage certificate directly.
How could Luo Zhiwei not want to get a marriage certificate with him? It's just...
“Lu Jingxiao, I don’t want to get a marriage certificate anymore. Everything in the Luo family will be mine sooner or later. Right now, I only want to avenge my mother. I don’t want to think about anything until Gu Hanchi pays the price.”
She has no right to talk about happiness if she hasn't avenged her mother.
Lu Jingxiao was silent for a moment, then accepted Luo Zhiwei's suggestion: "Fine, I'll do whatever you say. Just wait and see if I don't tear Gu Hanchi apart!"
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
