Chapter 374 Guo Yue: You guys are actually this kind of people!
Luo Zhiwei was very angry: "Madam Li, does Li Huaijin know that you are badmouthing his girlfriend behind his back?"
She just couldn't stand anyone speaking ill of Ranran in front of her; she couldn't accept it, she absolutely couldn't accept it!
You can criticize her, but you can't criticize her best friend.
"You..." Guo Yue's face darkened. Thinking that Luo Zhiwei was the kind of person who accepted things passively, she thought she could handle her better. She wanted to scold her, "Weiwei, I didn't say anything to you. Why are you so agitated? Or is it... birds of a feather flock together?"
Lu Jingxiao's face darkened instantly: "Madam Li, watch your words. I don't want to hear you say anything about my Weiwei. She is the future matriarch of the Lu family and the only eldest daughter of the Gu family. You'd better keep those unpleasant words to yourself."
The words were full of threat, and Guo Yue sensed it, which made her feel guilty for a moment.
"That's not what I meant, I just... spoke without thinking." Guo Yue said guiltily, "Jingxiao, please help Auntie persuade Huaijin, I really have no other choice."
Lu Jingxiao helplessly spread his hands: "I can't do anything about it. Once the second brother has made a decision, there's no way to change it."
He really couldn't make the decision; it was a matter between the young couple, why should he interfere?
“He will listen to everything you say. I only came to you because I had no other choice. At least go back to the company.”
Gu Yulin suddenly interjected, "Auntie, I want to know, why is the second son angry?"
If they're not even taking care of the company anymore, something must be going on.
Otherwise, Li Huaijin would never have gone on strike.
He was just there to watch the drama unfold.
I haven't had time to chat with them lately, and there are still some things I don't understand.
Guo Yue: "......"
She didn't really want to say it; she felt ashamed to talk about it.
She thought that Li Huaijin had already said it.
I didn't expect that they didn't say anything?
"this..."
She looked at Lu Jingxiao awkwardly, unsure of what to say, hoping he could put in a good word for her.
However, she failed to guard against Luo Zhiwei, who was very willing to take her place at this time.
Luo Zhiwei grabbed Gu Yulin's hand and started complaining: "Brother, I have the most say in this. Li Huaijin's mother made things difficult for Ranran twice. Ranran fought back once, and Li Huaijin was already angry. I didn't expect that this lady would still threaten Ranran to leave Li Huaijin. She was caught red-handed. How could that be allowed? So Li Huaijin gave himself a vacation and fired himself."
Gu Yulin: "......"
So, Madam Li is saying that his sister is no good?
Not good enough for Li Huaijin?
How could that be!
Guo Yue: "......"
Sure enough, Gu Youran's friends were also annoying.
Is it all her fault?
If Gu Youran had left the capital earlier, none of this would have happened.
"Madam Li, Youran is my eldest uncle's goddaughter. Are you implying that she is not good enough for the second son?"
Gu Youran helped his beloved younger sister when Weiwei was going through such a difficult time. Now that the Gu family is protecting Gu Youran, how could he possibly let Li Huaijin's mother make things difficult for Youran?
That's impossible.
Guo Yue noticed that Gu Yulin had even changed how he addressed her: "Yulin, you...you also think I'm wrong?"
"Otherwise what?"
Gu Yulin's rebuttal left Guo Yue momentarily stunned, but she quickly realized that they were all in cahoots and were speaking up for Gu Youran, so how could they possibly help her?
"Are you unwilling to help because you don't want Li Huaijin to have a good life?"
Lu Jingxiao: "..."
Gu Yulin was also speechless: "Madam Li, we can't interfere in the young couple's affairs. In other words, this is your family matter, and we can't help you at all. It's best if you handle it yourself."
Guo Yue's face darkened; she became even more certain that these people simply couldn't stand to see Li Huaijin doing well.
There are indeed no friends forever.
“Jingxiao, Yulin, our three families are at least close friends. I thought you would want Huaijin to be well and support him in finding a girl who is a good match for him.”
Guo Yue looked at them with heartache: "I never thought you... were such people."
What kind of people are we?
Lu Jingxiao was also quite curious.
"You're all a bunch of scoundrels. You're afraid that if Huaijin finds a good girl, the Li family will surpass you, so you feel threatened and can't stand to see him doing well. That's why you think Gu Youran is so great. You're all so scheming!"
"I really misjudged you all, you've really gone too far!"
If Luo Zhiwei had chosen Li Huaijin, she would have happily accepted it and even treated Luo Zhiwei like an ancestor.
However... Luo Zhiwei chose Lu Jingxiao, making it a powerful alliance between the two families.
Her son couldn't find a daughter from a more prestigious family.
But she couldn't possibly let Gu Youran marry into the Li family.
Lu Jingxiao: "???"
Gu Yulin: "???"
What kind of brain do you have?
How can someone have such a thought process?
Luo Zhiwei couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Madam Li, if you're sick, you should really get treatment. What's wrong with my You Ran? She earns quite a bit every year. Among the daughters of wealthy families, how many can you find?"
"Can you stop being sarcastic? My best friend is the best in the world. If you think my best friend isn't good enough for your son, then tell your son to break up with my best friend!"
What's the point of rambling on here?
Enough with the nonsense!
"How dare you say my best friend isn't good enough for your son? I think your son isn't good enough for my best friend!"
Luo Zhiwei grew angrier the more she talked. How could she have such an elder? It was so annoying.
"you..."
"Madam Li, we are afraid we can't help you. Please don't bother us. We are very busy too."
Lu Jingxiao refused with a dark expression.
To say something like that shows a complete lack of thought. He may hold a grudge against Li Huaijin, but that doesn't mean he won't hold a grudge against Madam Li.
"you..."
Guo Yue was very angry.
These people couldn't help and didn't say so earlier.
Lu Jingxiao stood up, took Luo Zhiwei's arm, and said calmly, "I will relay what you said today to Li Huaijin. As for what will happen between you two, I don't know."
He didn't give Guo Yue a chance to refute him and left with Weiwei directly.
Talking to her is a waste of time.
Tomorrow is Weiwei's birthday, and he doesn't want any accidents to happen right now.
He thought Guo Yue was looking for him to help ease the tension between them, but he never expected...
He got himself into trouble without doing anything.
**
After leaving, Lu Jingxiao called Li Huaijin and gave him a good scolding, finally saying, "It's Weiwei's birthday tomorrow. Just come and help her as soon as possible, consider it making amends. Otherwise..."
"Fine, I'll wait for you. You'd better prepare a big gift for Weiwei to make up for your mistake today."
"Okay, I'm hanging up."
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
How did this get dragged into her?
After hanging up the phone, Lu Jingxiao looked at Luo Zhiwei and said, "It's my birthday tomorrow, and I need to make some arrangements. Do you want to go out for a walk with Gu Youran first?"
"What are you setting up?" Luo Zhiwei was planning to go to the site to check if everything was ready. "I...I have some things to do tomorrow, so I won't be home until later."
Um?
What's wrong, Weiwei?
What is it that you can't let him know?
"Even though it's just a family meal, there still needs to be a ceremony. I'd like to prepare it myself. Weiwei, you and Gu Youran can go out and have fun during the day with your best friend, and we'll celebrate your birthday together in the evening?"
He kept his doubts to himself, since Weiwei had said she would let him know after her birthday.
Then there's no rush.
Luo Zhiwei readily agreed: "Okay, I'll do whatever you say."
