Indeed, no matter what the reason, the Gu family is unlikely to help Zhao Lan this time.
Previously, I could give Zhao Lan some business resources as a side benefit, but that was only because she was Gu Yujin's biological mother, and that was all!
Do you really think Gu Jia is a saint?
If Zhao Lan hadn't been a daughter of the Zhao family, the Gu family would probably have intervened back then, ensuring that Zhao Lan would have lived a life of poverty and hardship for the rest of her life. The Gu family could have easily done that.
Zhao Lan has lived a very glamorous life all these years, and the Gu family will occasionally give her some resources. That's already the limit. What more could she want?
If it weren't for Zhao Lan, Gu's daughter-in-law wouldn't have passed away so young and depressed, and Dean Gu wouldn't have been alone for the rest of his life, and wouldn't have been so distant from his son. How is that any different from being a lonely bachelor?
It would be strange if Old Master Gu were to help that woman.
People who care about their families are extremely protective of their own!
While it can't be said that all of the Gu family's misfortunes were caused by Zhao Lan alone, she does bear undeniable responsibility; in fact, she was the catalyst for all the misfortunes.
Gao Dan returned from outside the gate, but didn't do anything, not even make any phone calls. He calmly handled the office's daily affairs.
As expected, less than five minutes after Gao Dan entered the office, Zhao Lan's loud knocking began:
"Boss?"
"Come in."
Soon, Zhao Shuai's figure flashed in:
"Hey, boss, what are you up to?"
They even talked nonsense, so I wasn't as anxious as I had imagined.
Gao Dan didn't respond. He wrote two flamboyant characters at the end of the paper with his pen, exuding an air of dominance, just like a person.
Zhao Shuai couldn't hold back any longer. Seeing that his boss didn't react, he stepped forward:
"Boss, do you know about my aunt?"
Oh....
Gao Dan then looked up:
"What's up?"
Zhao Shuai observed carefully for a while, but still couldn't tell from his boss's face whether he knew or not. He stopped worrying about it. If his boss didn't want people to know what he was thinking, he would never let them notice. He then mumbled out the story.
Anyway, this can't be hidden anymore.
Even if the boss doesn't know now, he will find out later.
My aunt has made quite a stir this time; it's probably known throughout the entire capital city.
People in the circle are always the first to know the news, regardless of which aspect of the three realms.
"oh!"
After Zhao Shuai finished speaking, Gao Dan responded with a faint, exclamatory "Oh."
So calm?
Zhao Shuai was very suspicious, and then he became more and more convinced that his boss was pretending to be weak while actually being strong, and that he must have known the news in advance.
However, given his current courage, Young Master Zhao does not dare to question him.
"Hey boss, do you think there's any way to salvage this situation?"
If it were possible, everyone would be overjoyed!
I've already said it, she's my blood relative, my aunt, I can't just stand by and do nothing.
Gao Dan lowered his gaze, put the pen cap back on, and then answered leisurely:
"How would I know? It has nothing to do with me, it's up to you."
Zhao Lan is a member of the Zhao family, so the Zhao family's wishes are the most important.
It's clear that the Zhao family has made it quite explicit that they will not offer any assistance!
After all, helping Zhao Lan would mean upending the entire Zhao family. Everyone with eyes can see which is more important. As for the Zhao family's current attitude, everyone just talks about it, but they do agree with it in their hearts.
No one is that selfless; everyone is selfish, okay?
