Chapter 104: Strike First

Qi Xiaoyi, didn’t you say the dishes were ready?

Where are the dishes?

Wen Yu instantly changed back to her arrogant rich lady persona, raising her chin slightly.

Hearing her condescending tone, Qi Xiaoyi laughed angrily.

He was dissatisfied in his heart, and his tone was a bit teasing. What? You call Lu Qingzhou Brother Qingzhou, and you call me by my name?

Wen Yu snorted coldly. You have bullied me since I was a child, and you still want me to call you brother, you wishful thinking!

That’s because you always act like a big lady and look down on others, Qi Xiaoyi retorted.

Qi Xiaoyi!

What’s the matter? They are willing to spoil you, but I am not.

Qi Xiaoyi directly ignored her anger, and his expression when he spoke was also very annoying.

Also, I didn’t say I would treat you to this meal tonight. You came uninvited. If you don’t like it, you can leave.

Wen Yu was so angry that her face turned red, and she glared at him with gritted teeth.

Gu Jingzhan was a little impatient with their quarrels and said in a cold voice, Can we eat now?

Yes!

As soon as Gu Jingzhan opened his mouth, Qi Xiaoyi immediately became flattering.

I’ll ask them to serve the food right away.

The quarrel between Qi Xiaoyi and Wen Yu finally subsided.

…

In the study room of the Gu family’s old house, the atmosphere was a little depressing.

Replying to the chairman, the young master and the young mistress…

Before he finished speaking, Gu Wenhua’s deep eyes shot out a sharp cold light, which instantly silenced the subordinates who were reporting.

Feeling the unquestionable majesty, the subordinates quickly changed their words: Gu Jingzhan and Xiang Wanqiao are having dinner in Xicui Building now.

Gu Wenhua sat upright on a mahogany chair, holding a cigar between his fingers, and the smoke rose, covering his sinister face in a hazy smoke.

He took a deep puff of his cigar, slowly exhaled a cloud of white smoke, and gave the order: Go ahead.

Hearing this, his subordinate hesitated. Chairman, really…

I don’t like people who don’t obey, Gu Wenhua’s tone was cold and resolute. It’s time to teach them a lesson.

The subordinate was frightened by the cold eyes and dared not say anything more. He could only lower his head and answer: Yes.

Then, he quickly retreated.

As soon as Gu Wenhua’s subordinates left, Zhuang Meijing walked in with a bowl of ginseng soup.

Wenhua, why are you smoking here again?

Gu Wenhua saw Zhuang Meijing coming and immediately pressed the unburned cigar in his hand into the ashtray and extinguished it, and the gloomy coldness on his body also dissipated.

He turned his head, a trace of tenderness flashed across his eyes, and whispered: It’s not too much to smoke occasionally?

Zhuang Meijing smiled slightly, without saying much, just said: Seeing that you didn’t eat much for dinner, I went to the kitchen to make some ginseng soup, drink it while it’s hot.

Gu Wenhua gently pulled her hand, Xiaojing, you are still the best to me.

Zhuang Meijing smiled, walked behind him, and massaged his shoulders.

After a moment of silence, she slowly asked: Are you really going to deal with Gu Jingzhan? After all, he is your son.

As soon as these words came out, the tenderness in Gu Wenhua’s eyes instantly turned into coldness.

I don’t have a son like him, he said coldly. I only have one son, Xiaoyu.

Zhuang Meijing looked at him and sighed softly, Aren’t you afraid that the old lady will blame you after knowing it?

Gu Wenhua was not worried at all.

He knew his mother.

He replied lightly, With Xiaoyu, the old lady won’t say anything even if she knows.

Zhuang Meijing frowned and said softly, I always feel that this is not good.

There’s nothing wrong, Gu Wenhua said solemnly. Didn’t you hear what Xiang Wanqiao said? She threatened me with Xiaoyu, and I just took the initiative.

Zhuang Meijing didn’t speak, and the movement of her hands stopped.

Gu Wenhua put down the porcelain bowl, held her hand, and pulled her into his arms. Xiaojing, I will never allow anyone to threaten the safety of you and Xiaoyu.

Wenhua.

Zhuang Meijing felt a warm current in her heart and leaned on his arms moved.

What if… things don’t go as smoothly as we thought? She said softly.

Gu Wenhua said confidently: Don’t worry, this operation will be foolproof.

Zhuang Meijing listened to his words, and the worries in her heart gradually dissipated.

She leaned tightly in Gu Wenhua’s arms, feeling the warmth and sense of security he gave her.

Gu Wenhua hugged her, Xiaojing, I love you and our son Xiaoyu. I do so much to give you and your son a better life.

I know.

Zhuang Meijing smiled, with a hint of deep meaning in her eyes.

I know everything you do is for us.

Gu Wenhua said to her softly: So don’t be afraid, no matter what happens, I’m here.

Yeah.
