Chapter 373 Forced to Apologize
Old Master Li choked: "When did I threaten you?"
He felt very guilty and didn't dare to look at Li Huaijin.
Is it appropriate for the Li Group to be managed by someone who doesn't even have the surname Li?
No matter what, Li Huaijin has to come.
"If we don't ask for anything, can you go back?" This was the biggest concession he made; he didn't mention his only request.
Is this not acceptable either?
Li Huaijin's brow twitched, a hint of something in his mind. He raised an eyebrow and said, "You have no demands, but I do."
"What are the requirements?"
"I want Madam Li, also known as Ms. Guo Yue, to apologize to You Ran. She has made things difficult for You Ran twice. Shouldn't she apologize?"
Guo Yue stood to the side, completely dumbfounded.
"What?" Guo Yue asked incredulously, "You want me to apologize?"
"Li Huaijin, I am your mother!"
This unfilial son actually made me apologize?
Should I apologize to a mere, inexperienced young girl?
Why should I?!
"Apologize when you do something wrong, isn't that a very simple principle?"
Guo Yue roared hysterically in anger: "I'm your mother, and you want me to apologize to your girlfriend?"
Li Huaijin immediately raised his anger to the maximum: "You Ran is not my girlfriend yet, what you are doing is really inappropriate."
This made Guo Yue's face even uglier. She wasn't his girlfriend, yet she was making him go to so much trouble?
Just how charming is Gu Youran?
She could bewitch Li Huaijin so much that he would even disregard the reputation of his family.
That's outrageous!
She's being driven crazy.
"Li Huaijin, you've gone too far!" Guo Yue roared.
But Old Master Li didn't tolerate Guo Yue. He sternly rebuked her: "Guo Yue, as an elder, you should have the dignity of an elder. Since you did something wrong, you should apologize."
"Apologize immediately."
Grandpa Li's tough attitude left Guo Yue speechless. What else could she do after he had spoken?
"sorry."
Guo Yue apologized with great resentment, her dislike for Gu Youran growing even stronger.
"Apologize for what?"
Li Huaijin was pushing his luck and clearly wanted to get to the bottom of things.
Guo Yue was so angry she could hardly breathe. This son of hers was just here to collect a debt, actually making his own mother apologize to a little bitch.
She was very indignant.
"Li Huaijin, don't go too far. I've already apologized. Why are you making things so difficult for me?"
"Weren't you quite domineering when you were making things difficult for You Ran? Why are you so aggrieved now?" Li Huaijin's question made Guo Yue's face turn ugly.
Guo Yue, enraged and embarrassed, left, saying, "Take it or leave it, I won't apologize anymore!"
She immediately turned around and slammed the door shut.
Old Master Li stood there, extremely embarrassed: "I won't interfere in your affairs, but Li Huaijin, don't go too far. Don't you know what you should do?"
What should I do?
"Are you really not going to take care of the company?"
Li Huaijin didn't take it to heart and leaned back on the sofa nonchalantly: "I'll think about it some more. You can go back now."
That means there's nothing to talk about right now.
Old Master Li glared at him fiercely: "I don't need you to kick me out, I will leave. But, Li Huaijin, don't push your luck. Company matters cannot be delayed and must operate normally."
Li Huaijin ignored him, closed his eyes, and leaned against Gu Youran.
The old man nearly had a heart attack from watching this scene.
Gu Youran felt a little awkward. No matter what, the person in front of her was an outsider, and an elderly person at that. It wasn't appropriate to be so intimate.
"Old man, take care."
Gu Youran nodded slightly, which was considered a gesture to ask him to leave.
**
Gu Youran couldn't help but pat Li Huaijin on the shoulder: "Can you really treat the old man like this?"
"What's wrong with that? They can do whatever they want, it doesn't matter."
Li Huaijin truly doesn't care. He holds most of the shares in the Li Group, and the fate of the group is in his hands. Who can control him?
Gu Youran: "......"
He seemed to have everything under control, his unhurried demeanor suggesting he genuinely didn't care.
Forget it, it's not something she can control. Li Huaijin has her own ideas, so she shouldn't interfere anymore.
"You Ran, you really don't need to worry about me. Just think of it as me taking a few days off. Isn't that nice?"
Li Huaijin wanted to take this opportunity to make his stance clear; he had no intention of making things difficult for anyone.
He could never be separated from Gu Youran in this lifetime, and he also had to take over the Li family. So before that, he had to win over everyone and not let Gu Youran suffer any injustice.
Guo Yue may not love him or care about him, and he may not have parents who don't love him, but he cannot lose Gu Youran.
If they don't accept Gu Youran, then he can give up everything from the Li family.
Gu Youran sighed helplessly, "Alright, then you decide what to do." She suddenly thought of something, "Why don't you come and help out at my company? I don't want to work lately. My little bit of work would only take you a few hours."
"Sure, can I get paid?"
Gu Youran thought about it very seriously, then looked at him with a troubled expression: "Then one yuan a day?"
Li Huaijin: "???"
One yuan?
It feels like an old married couple. The husband works himself to the bone for a month, and only gets a dollar as pocket money a day. This feeling... seems pretty good?
"Can I ask to buy a beer?"
My allowance needs to increase.
"Hmm... beer is a bit expensive, how about this, you can just buy one bottle a week."
Look how generous I am, I can drink a bottle of beer every week.
Li Huaijin: "......"
He couldn't help but remind her, "You Ran, I'm rich too."
Gu Youran narrowed her eyes, looking at Li Huaijin dangerously: "Hmm? You mean I can't control you?"
Li Huaijin immediately changed his expression: "No, I didn't mean that!"
He didn't say anything!
That's not what I meant.
"I'd be happy if you kept me in check."
We must make our stance clear on this.
"Really? I get the feeling you're not happy about it, and you even have to emphasize it separately."
Li Huaijin: "......"
Is this considered being unreasonable?
I guess so.
However, it's quite cute.
I feel somewhat appeased.
“No, I’m more than willing. If you can get a marriage certificate with me now, I can immediately hand over all my bank cards to you for safekeeping, and you can make all the decisions about the house!” Li Huaijin was excited just thinking about it.
However, Gu Youran refused decisively: "Then you haven't passed the test yet, just wait."
Fine, what's there to say about his family, the kind he doesn't even like?
There's nothing more to say.
It definitely needs to be put to a good test.
He was happy to cooperate.
What they didn't know was that Guo Yue went directly to Gu Yulin and Lu Jingxiao. Lu Jingxiao took Weiwei with him, as he couldn't face this alone.
Guo Yue was furious and completely forgot about the relationship between Gu Youran and Luo Zhiwei.
"Yulin, Jingxiao, please help me persuade Huaijin. Why is she with that kind of woman? She's a little bitch, only after the Li family's wealth. She's a piece of trash with no manners. I..."
Before Guo Yue could finish speaking, Luo Zhiwei stood up angrily: "Madam Li, how can you be so ill-mannered as to talk about crickets in front of others behind the back of the person involved?"
Luo Zhiwei's temper was so inexplicable that it left Guo Yue completely bewildered. She suddenly paused, then remembered that Luo Zhiwei and Gu Youran were best friends, and that Luo Zhiwei had just...
"Weiwei, I didn't mean to just now, I was just angry..."
In reality, Guo Yue also looked down on Luo Zhiwei, but Luo Zhiwei had the Gu family behind her, so she was barely acceptable.
"If they're not saying it on purpose, they're already using such nasty language. But if it's intentional... what would that be like?"
