Chapter 760: I Offended My Girlfriend
Chu Yan had barely finished speaking when his phone rang.
“The Zhang family has sent people. They say our family is trying to blacklist them. You need to come back and resolve this. There's a bunch of noisy people here. Come and deal with them. Don't let them bother your grandparents.”
Chu Yan answered the phone, and Chu Xiong's helpless voice came from the other end.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Yan looked at everyone and said, "The Zhang family has arrived. I'll go and handle things first. Everyone, please eat first and don't wait for me."
Then he looked at Gu Yin and said gently, "Want to go and take a look together?" He knew that Gu Yin loved watching excitement, and that Gu Yin had almost finished eating.
Gu Yin wiped her mouth, nodded, and stood up: "I'll go take a look."
Upon hearing this, the others could no longer remain seated and all stood up to go and see what was happening.
Finally, the entire Gu family appeared at the Chu family's house next door.
Besides the head of the Zhang family, two men who looked to be in their thirties also came. They were presumably the two children of the first wife. There was also a woman who looked about 70% like Zhang Yi. The woman was holding Old Madam Chu's hand and crying.
The old lady frowned, but when she saw Chu Yan and the others come in, her eyes immediately lit up. She shook off Madam Zhang's hand, stood up, and said with a smile, "You've all arrived? Have you eaten yet?"
Grandma Gu smiled and nodded: "I just finished eating and was thinking of coming over to sit and chat for a while. Do you have guests?"
Grandma Chu waved her hand: "They're here to see Ayan, we don't need to worry about them. By the way, Jinse brought back some fun things from abroad a while ago, shall we go take a look?"
She simply couldn't stand that Madam Zhang anymore. She came in without saying a word, then grabbed her leg and started crying, claiming her son was innocent. What a disgraceful lady! She had no manners or etiquette whatsoever! If she weren't worried about her husband getting upset alone, she would have left long ago!
She didn't want to stay there any longer.
Grandma Gu nodded and followed the person upstairs, telling them about Gu Hua as they went.
Grandma Chu exclaimed in surprise, "I thought it was a company matter! It turns out it's something like this! Their son did such a thing and still has the nerve to come and beg for forgiveness?! Where's his shame?! No, we're not leaving! We'll see what kind of explanation they have! Let's go, let's go downstairs!"
As he spoke, he pulled Old Mrs. Gu downstairs again.
Downstairs, looking at the group of people coming in, Mr. Zhang looked at Chu Yan and said with a smile, "Young Master Chu, your father isn't home. He said you can handle everything on my end. There are a lot of people here. How about we move outside? I'll decide where we can eat and chat?"
Although things at home are urgent, there are so many people here, we can't air our dirty laundry in public, and the company can't afford any more trouble!
Chu Yan greeted his grandfather, then told the Gu family members to find their own seats before looking at Mr. Zhang, whose face was filled with extreme displeasure.
"There's no need to go outside. We can talk right here. There are no outsiders here, and most of the conversation is related to what you want to discuss. Have your wife sit down. My home isn't a stage; we don't need her to put on such an unsightly performance. Just sit properly."
Madam Zhang, who had been weeping with her head down, suddenly stiffened. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she felt embarrassed. She chuckled awkwardly and got up to sit down.
He sighed and said, "I just couldn't hold back anymore, so I lost control of my emotions. What exactly did my Yicheng do wrong? Why was he arrested? And why did our cooperation with the Chu family stop completely as soon as he was arrested? Did Yicheng offend you because he was blind? If so, I apologize to you on his behalf! He's still a child, unlike you who were raised by Mr. Chu from a young age and were exposed to the company early on! You were taught how to conduct yourself and how to get along with others. He's just a wild child who has offended us in many ways. Please be lenient and let him go! Our Zhang family will be eternally grateful!"
Upon hearing Madam Zhang's words, the three men of the Zhang family all turned pale, but considering that they were in the Chu family and it was not appropriate to argue, they held back.
Mr. Zhang looked at Chu Yan and asked suspiciously, "Did that little brat really do something to offend you? Just tell me, my Zhang family will never tolerate it! But to escalate a matter between children to the level of company cooperation, isn't that making a mountain out of a molehill? After so many years of cooperation, your Chu family knows what kind of people the Zhang family is. Making such a big fuss has caused our Zhang family's stock to keep falling, and our shareholders are very uneasy. This, this is not a good thing."
Chu Yan poured Gu Yin a cup of tea before speaking, "It's not that you offended me, it's that you offended my girlfriend."
As soon as Chu Yan said this, the four members of the Zhang family all looked at Gu Yin.
