Chapter 371 Reprimanding Guo Yue
Gu Youran was a little uncomfortable with her mouth being covered and wanted to resist: "Mmm..."
I didn't say anything, so why are you covering my mouth?
Seeing her best friend being treated like this by her fiancé, Luo Zhiwei quickly stepped forward and joined in the protest.
"Ah Xiao, let go of You Ran quickly, you're making it hard for her to breathe."
We can't treat Ranran like this.
Lu Jingxiao became even more jealous. It was one thing for his good brother to listen to Gu Youran, since she was the man his second brother was pursuing. But why was his little girl also defending Gu Youran?
"Baby...."
Luo Zhi smiled sweetly and tried to please Lu Jingxiao, taking his hand in hers: "Ah Xiao, don't be angry. This is just a beautiful vision between best friends. Look... Li Huaijin didn't say anything."
Lu Jingxiao: "......."
Is this meant to comfort me? I feel like... it's like they're throwing mud at me!
I feel like I'm being immature.
"Ah Xiao, please let it go, okay? We're just saying, don't hold a grudge against You Ran. We're men, we're family, shouldn't we be more magnanimous?"
Lu Jingxiao then looked at Luo Zhiwei, looking aggrieved: "Baby..." He glanced at Gu Youran before reluctantly letting go.
Li Huaijin immediately stepped forward, pulled Gu Youran into his arms, and quickly led her aside.
If he were to go up and do something at this moment, Lu Jingxiao would probably be even more unhappy.
But he couldn't help but criticize her: "Third brother, you can't treat You Ran like this. She's your sister-in-law, and also your Weiwei's best friend."
With such a dual identity, how could he possibly want a leisurely life in Shanghai?
We also need to consider the quantity.
Lu Jingxiao: "......."
Are you kidding me?
"Heh, you should take a look. You don't even have a formal title. Gu Youran hasn't acknowledged you as her boyfriend yet."
Li Huaijin: "......."
No, you're just bringing up the very thing you don't want to talk about, aren't you?
Knowing full well that I'm still pursuing you, why are you still trying to provoke me?
That's outrageous!
Lu Jingxiao gave Li Huaijin a good provocation. As for how he provoked him, it goes without saying. After all, he was her rightful fiancé, and he could kiss Weiwei however he wanted, and no one could stop him!
So, he openly kissed Weiwei, which made Li Huaijin so angry that he scratched his head!
"Third brother, that's not fair."
Knowing full well that I still lack a formal status, why are you provoking me like this?
Lu Jingxiao finally managed to turn the tables and felt much better.
Luo Zhiwei patted Lu Jingxiao's chest a little embarrassedly: "With so many people around, aren't you ashamed?"
"So what? It's only natural for me to kiss my own wife."
Lu Jingxiao looked at Luo Zhiwei with great pride, feeling extremely satisfied.
Luo Zhiwei: "..."
Let's be reasonable. When did I become your wife?
Gu Youran sat to the side, leaning half her body against Li Huaijin, and gave a deliberately cold snort: "You two are going too far. Isn't this inappropriate? I'm still sitting here."
"Ranran...."
If you keep talking, then I can't guarantee what he can do.
I did all this for you.
You can't betray me at this time.
Gu Youran immediately made a shushing gesture. Okay, shut up. You can't say anything, or someone will get angry.

Meanwhile, at the Li family's old mansion, everyone was dumbfounded.
A group of company shareholders stood before them. Old Master Li, his face grim, asked, "What are you doing at the old mansion?"
Shareholder 1: Chairman, what exactly do you mean? We've all been working for President Li, so why is she on strike now?
Shareholder 2: Now everyone saw him carrying his things away, and he just went on strike? What will happen to the company's operations?
Shareholder 3: The news of President Li's resignation has been posted online, and Li's stock price has been falling all the way. What should we do?
Shareholder 4: How much money has President Li made for us? I don't care what conflicts you have, they must be resolved. We need to get President Li back to take charge as soon as possible, otherwise... we will all withdraw our investment.
Old Master Li frowned, seemingly deep in thought.
Li Huaijin is not an impulsive person; he would never do such a thing without a reason. Something must have happened.
He could only patiently and calmly say, "Don't worry, I'll call and ask right now." He thought for a moment, "I'll go directly to him and personally invite him back to the company, that should be fine, right?"
The shareholders thought, "That's more like it."
This is what they want.
Li Huaijin is the pillar of the Li family. If he is not in the Li family, then why would they invest money?
Shareholder 1: Then you should bring them back as soon as possible, otherwise the company will soon be gone.
After the shareholders left, Old Master Li immediately called Guo Yue out and impatiently questioned her: "What exactly did you do to make Li Huaijin resign from the company?"
Guo Yue's mind went blank; she had no idea what had happened.
She didn't even know how to explain it.
"I...I didn't do anything, I didn't do anything..." Guo Yue didn't want to admit it, and even found it somewhat unbelievable: "Dad, are you saying...Li Huaijin resigned?"
Why did he do that?
That's something she fought for him with her whole life, why would he do that!
Can he live up to her sacrifices?
Old Master Li nodded with a stern face: "Yes, he has already resigned."
"What exactly did you say, Guo Yue? Don't forget, that's your son. Can't you make things easier for him?"
Perhaps it was because Li Huaijin had taken over his investment that he realized, after calming down, that this kid had grown up and was capable of trampling everyone under his feet.
If you want to control him like before... it probably won't be easy.
Therefore, he no longer wanted to be Li Huaijin's enemy.
Maybe I've figured it out.
For so many years, they haven't given Li Huaijin a kind look, haven't had a serious conversation with him, and did many bad things to him when he was a child, earning his hatred for so many years... and now they still won't give him a kind look...
No wonder he treated them badly; it's because they committed the sins first.
Guo Yue was somewhat indignant: "Grandpa, I didn't want this either. He's my son, and I want what's best for him. I want to find him a woman of equal social standing to be his wife. Am I wrong?"
Grandpa Li didn't know what to say, because what Guo Yue said was also correct.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry for what I did when he was a child, but that's not a reason for him to hurt me," Guo Yue retorted hysterically.
She did all this for Li Huaijin, to help him gain a foothold in the Li family, and to keep the Li family firmly in her grasp. Why couldn't he understand?
"Guo Yue, that's your son. Don't push him too hard. Can you bear the consequences of pushing him too hard?"
Grandpa Li's earnest words failed to awaken Guo Yue's maternal instincts. She didn't think she had done anything wrong: "What can't I bear? I'm his mother, what can he do to me?!"
"You..." Old Master Li was furious: "He has already resigned, and Li's stock has plummeted. This is the result of your interference!"
Guo Yue looked at the old man in disbelief: "What?"
How could that be? It's impossible!
How could he do that?
"You'd better show me your stance now. Let Li Huaijin marry whoever he wants. It has nothing to do with you!"
"I...."
