Chapter 205 Gu Hancheng: Give Me a Chance to Make Amends
Gu Hancheng quickly waved his hands, nervously explaining, "I...I didn't come here with you. Your brother and I came to find Lu Jingxiao. We just came down and ran into him..."
"Weiwei, I promise I will never let Zhao Yulan bother you again, don't worry."
He quickly assured them, smiling obsequiously.
This made Luo Zhiwei feel somewhat uncomfortable.
"As long as you're happy."
Luo Zhiwei turned to look at Gu Beixiao and asked softly, "Brother, why did you come here?"
"There's a collaboration that Mr. Gu insisted on involving me, and he even brought You Ran along, you know..."
Yu Ran's motto is: Never let money get in the way.
Their enemies are gone, so there's no need to cut ties with the Gu family forever. Cooperation and mutual benefit are a good option.
In the business world, there are no permanent enemies.
Instead of refusing to let others benefit, why not take a share for yourself?
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
The word "leisurely" says it all, and she expressed her understanding.
No wonder Lu Jingxiao suddenly went to the conference room and told her to rest; he was worried that she didn't want to see Gu Hancheng.
"So you've finished talking?"
Gu Beixiao raised his hand and ruffled her hair. It felt similar to You Ran's hair; it was very easy to rub.
I didn't know she was my sister before, so I always kept my distance. Now that she's my sister, it's okay to pet her.
"We finished talking and were just about to leave when Zhao Yulan kept harassing you?"
Gu Beixiao's expression was not good, as if he was about to settle scores with someone.
Luo Zhiwei shook her head and told the truth: "No, this is her first time here. She wanted me to forgive Zhao Tingguo and Lin Wanru, but I didn't agree..."
"If she harasses you again, just call me." Gu Beixiao thought for a moment and then decided against it: "I'll handle it. Don't worry about this. I won't let her appear in front of you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Jingxiao rushed to Luo Zhiwei's side, looking at her with concern: "Weiwei, are you alright? Did Zhao Yulan make things difficult for you?"
"No."
We don't know yet who's making things difficult for whom.
Who else could make things difficult for her?
Lu Jingxiao looked around and, not seeing Zhao Yulan, immediately shouted, "Where is she?"
The receptionist trembled for a moment, quite frightened, and said in a trembling voice, "Mr. Lu, the people...the people were scared away by the two Mr. Gus."
I don't know how to distinguish them for the time being, so I can only call them both Mr. Gu.
He then turned to look at Gu Beixiao, but before he could even say thank you, he was met with a barrage of sarcastic remarks.
Gu Beixiao snorted coldly: "President Gu is really a busy man. You, as the president, didn't even know that Weiwei had an accident in your company."
Lu Jingxiao: "..."
The criticisms aren't wrong; they seem to make a lot of sense.
"I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Luo Zhiwei interrupted him, her words full of defense: "Brother, this has nothing to do with him. I stepped down because I didn't want to cause a bad impact on the company. What does it have to do with Lu Jingxiao?"
Gu Beixiao: "..."
This girl seems a bit love-struck.
Hiss—this is not a good sign.
Lu Jingxiao was overjoyed to be protected, but as joyful as he was, he still had to weigh the situation carefully; he needed to deal with Zhao Yulan properly.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be good if they kept bothering Weiwei every now and then.
"Leave this matter to me. Since Zhao Yulan wants to feel important, I'll grant her that wish."
Lu Jingxiao became ruthless. He had let her go before because she hadn't done anything particularly heinous. Even when Zhao Tingguo abused Weiwei during those five years, he had subtly inquired about it and found that Weiwei didn't seem to harbor much hatred towards Zhao Yulan, except for the fact that she was the daughter of a mistress.
Now even the mere reason to damage the relationship between husband and wife no longer exists.
This means that Zhao Yulan did not lay a hand on Weiwei, and that is why he did not attack Zhao Yulan.
Gu Hancheng suddenly stepped forward, feeling that this was an opportunity to show his abilities; he had to do something for Weiwei.
"Leave this to me, I'll handle it. Consider it a chance for me to prove myself, okay?"
Lu Jingxiao: "..."
Should I try to take it from him?
This is his chance to shine.
"I hope you can really handle this." Clearly, Gu Beixiao had no intention of interfering.
Lu Jingxiao's brow twitched. It seemed that Gu Beixiao was going to give Gu Hancheng a chance, and even Weiwei hadn't directly refused.
That means... Weiwei is also planning to give him a chance, but... when he will accept it is uncertain.
We are all adults, and we should not let others be the culprits. No mistake is unforgivable.
Everyone can identify the culprit; we cannot deny the good intentions of others because of one insignificant person.
Since that's the case... then he won't compete with Uncle Gu for it.
He hummed and hawed as he led Luo Zhiwei upstairs.
[President Lu really loves Secretary Luo so much! I'm so envious; what an enviable love story.]
[And I only just realized that Secretary Luo is surrounded by so many people who dote on her; she's like a darling of the group.]
A love where both sides are evenly matched can truly bring tears to your eyes.
[Wrong. President Lu and Secretary Luo weren't evenly matched; it was a case of the superior bowing down. Someone of President Lu's status... unless the Gu family has a rich heiress, he'll always be in a superior position. But, a superior bowing down is truly beautiful, mainly because Secretary Luo deserves it.]
I think you're right, Secretary Luo deserves the best, but I also think I deserve the best.
[Then forget about it. There's only one President Lu, and he already belongs to Secretary Luo.]
**
Gu Hancheng acted swiftly and decisively, quickly sending Zhao Yulan out of the capital. It was better for her not to come back.
Without their daughter's help, Zhao Tingguo and Lin Wanru waited for reinforcements for a long time inside, but... Gu Hancheng arrived.
The moment Zhao Tingguo saw Gu Hancheng, he trembled all over.
Why is this evil spirit here?
"I...I have nothing to say to you. I'm going back to my cell now, I..."
How could Gu Hancheng let him leave? His cold, hard voice left no room for refusal: "President Zhao, sit down. I have something to say to you."
Zhao Tingguo sat there timidly: "President Gu...you...what do you have to say? I...I was just acting under your brother's orders. I really didn't mean it. Could you...could you tell Weiwei to let me go? I really...I really didn't mean it. I love her so much, really!"
"I've raised her for over twenty years, and even if... I never let her go hungry or cold, I..."
Gu Hancheng's expression instantly turned cold, and his frosty tone made the temperature in the entire space drop several degrees: "What did you say?"
"I..." Zhao Tingguo immediately changed his tune: "I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, I... I will never dare to do it again, President Gu, please save me, save me. As long as I get out, I will definitely treat Weiwei well and will never let her suffer any grievances."
He was like a headless fly, grabbing onto someone and begging for help, but he had completely forgotten who the person in front of him was.
"President Gu, what happened before really has nothing to do with me. It was all your brother, Gu Hanchi, who threatened me. I had no choice. I was just a nobody. I had no choice but to listen to him."
He pleaded urgently, "I...I can make it up to Weiwei, I'll spend my whole life making it up to Weiwei. I really...I really know I was wrong, please, give me a chance."
“I gave you a chance, but who gave Luo Huining a chance? She offered you generous conditions, and you turned your back on her after you’ve served your purpose. A person like you doesn’t deserve forgiveness.”
No way you can get out of here.
