Tang Jingyuan was confused by what he heard. He held Lu Anning and said that no matter what, she couldn't rush to the Gu family to argue with Gu Zhiwei.
Even when he was calm, he couldn't win the argument, let alone now. If he didn't handle it well, it would only mess up the whole situation.
"Be good! Tell me what happened first, and then we can figure out a solution together."
Lu Anning held Tang Jingyuan's hand tightly and told him all the truth he had learned today. Tang Jingyuan listened carefully, but the more he listened, the more outrageous it seemed to him.
He wasn't entirely sure about the Gu family's lineage. However, since they were so powerful, he could ask someone to find out. It shouldn't be difficult to find out the general situation. As for the Ji family, he had already asked Lin Tao to investigate past events, and it shouldn't be long before there were any results.
Tang Jingyuan knew what Lu Anning was angry about, but without evidence, all this was just speculation. As the head of the Gu family, Gu Zhiwei would never admit it. As for Ji Yan, she would definitely not approve of such a ridiculous behavior.
"If you ask now, it might just backfire."
"Then what should I do? Knowing there's a problem, should I still swallow my anger? I can't do that! If he hadn't hurt my mom, I could let it go. But if he's one of the culprits, what's the point of me considering the so-called overall situation?"
She didn't know it before, but now that she has discovered the clues, she will definitely not turn a blind eye.
"We still need to think about this matter carefully. Your mother is no longer with us, so there is no evidence. Unless we find the old man who served in the Gu family, if we can confirm that your mother lived there, and ask for some information, we may be able to find the truth you want. Otherwise..."
Waiting for Gu Zhiwei to tell the truth is almost impossible.
Tang Jingyuan stared at Lu Anning, bewildered. As a father, knowing full well that the person before him was his biological daughter, he pretended not to know for the sake of so-called overall stability.
This reason is too far-fetched!
Even if he trusted the Tang family and him, she was his own daughter who had been lost for many years. How could he remain indifferent?
Just because you don’t want to affect your current wife’s mood?
Lu Anning suddenly thought of someone: "The old housekeeper of the Gu family, he must know."
During his several visits to the Gu family, Lu Anning noticed that his father placed great trust in the housekeeper. No one should know more about the Gu family's past than him.
"Since he's your father's confidant, if you rashly go to him, you might alert the enemy. Don't worry, let me arrange for someone to investigate first."
"I can go ask my eldest brother first, even if the old man of the Gu family has passed away, it doesn't matter. If we find him, I will definitely be able to get some clues."
Lu Anning didn't want to investigate in detail, but Gu Zhiwei's lies aroused her suspicion. She had to investigate this past.
Lu Anning suddenly came to Gu's without telling anyone. Fortunately, he ran into Secretary Wang who had just finished his work, so he was not stopped by the front desk.
Secretary Wang scolded, "Look carefully! This is the real fifth daughter of the Gu family, Mr. Gu's younger sister, and one of the major shareholders of the Gu Group. Whoever dares to stop her next time, forget it."
Several receptionists quickly lowered their heads and dared not say a word. They had heard of this reputation before, but who knew...
After all, there are countless women who want to see Mr. Gu for various reasons, and they dare not take it lightly.
"Forget it. I'm here to have dinner with my eldest brother. Does he have any social engagements at noon?"
Secretary Wang smiled and said, "Boss Gu would definitely be very happy if he knew. No social event is more important than having dinner with Miss Fifth. Please follow me!"
With someone personally leading the way, Lu Anning had a smooth journey.
Secretary Wang was kind and polite to Lu Anning, and was a man who could read people's expressions. She had heard Ding Wan say that Secretary Wang was quick-witted and swift-handed, and was Gu Yue's most capable assistant.
The two chatted casually along the way, and just as they arrived at the office door, they ran into Ji Yan.
Ji Yan came out with a lunch box. Before she could suppress the smile on her lips, she froze when she saw Lu An Ning.
"Why are you here?"
Lu Anning only nodded slightly: "Madam Gu!"
When the people in the secretary's office heard the name, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Gu Yue came out upon hearing the sound, and when he saw Lu An Ning, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "A Yue, why are you here?"
The normally stern elder brother's words were filled with unconcealed surprise, and even Ji Yan, who was standing beside him, could hear it. In contrast, when he saw her just now, his eyes were filled with a hint of annoyance.
It didn't take long for her to win over her son.
Lu Anning walked past Ji Yan and headed towards Gu Yue: "Big brother always treats me to dinner. I happened to be free today, so I came here to treat you back. I wonder if you have time?"
When Gu Yue heard that his younger sister wanted to treat him to a meal, he was flattered and nodded repeatedly, with a rare smile on his face. Several people in the president's office were stunned and almost thought they had seen it wrong.
When did their cold-faced President Gu smile so cheaply?
Ji Yan was unhappy: "Your brother has so much work to do every day, do you think he can just play around like you? How can he have time to eat with you!"
Gu Yue quickly corrected him: "Ayue is here, I'm available anytime. But, can you wait for me for half an hour?"
Lu An Ning smiled slightly, completely ignoring Ji Yan's words: "Of course! We can go after Big Brother is done with his work. I'm not in a hurry."
After hearing this, Ji Yan's face turned pale. He was about to attack when he was stopped by Gu Yue.
"Mom, if you have nothing else, go back first! Ayue and I have work matters to discuss. If you don't understand what I'm saying, you'll be in the way."
"I……"
Ji Yan was so angry that she didn't even finish her words when she saw Gu Yue pulling Lu An Ning into the office and instructing that no one was allowed to disturb her, including Ji Yan.
When the door closed, Ji Yan raised the lunch box in her hand angrily, but when she realized that they were in the company, she had to swallow her anger.
really!
They are all ungrateful people who can never be tamed!
