Qiao Xi burst into tears. "Chairman, no matter what, Ah Zheng is your biological son. Are you going to beat your biological son to death for Lu Yan? Isn't it just for a plot of land? We'll just give it to him!"
Gu Zheng pursed his lips tightly and remained silent.
At this moment, Jiang Feng brought everyone to the inner courtyard. They all overheard Qiao Xi's words.
Unexpectedly, Gu Weiming actually wanted to kill Gu Zheng for Lu Yan?
Qiao Xi cried loudly, "Chairman, I really don't understand why you would be so vicious to your own son for Lu Yan! If you really kill Gu Zheng, you'll definitely go to jail!"
Gu Weiming reacted and immediately roared, "You… Shut up!"
Qiao Xi cried without a care. "Ah Zheng, if you're beaten to death, I'll suffer the same fate with you!"
Everyone's hearts trembled when they heard that. They muttered, "Chairman Gu has lost his mind from anger…"
"How exactly isn't President Gu a part of the Gu family? What right does the Gu family have? Are they qualified to say that?"
"A father wants to kill his son for an outsider? I've never heard of such a thing!"
Gu Weiming did not notice the people outside. When he heard Qiao Xi's cries, he spoke without thinking, "Gu Zheng is my son. Since I gave him life, I have the right to take it back!"
Qiao Xi cried sorrowfully. "Chairman! On the account that Ah Zheng has earned so much wealth for the Gu family, please let him off! I know that you don't like him because he's too capable. He's even surpassed you and makes Lu Yan seem useless, but…
"But he's your son, after all. If you want to kill him, why don't you kill me first?! If it can appease your anger, I'm willing to endure all of this!"
The corners of Song Shijing's mouth twitched. 'Young Madam, it's a pity that you're not joining the film industry.'
However, Young Madam was right. Gu Weiming just thought that the president was too outstanding, causing the Gu family and Lu Yan to look like trash.
At this moment, Jiang Feng walked over. "Young Madam, you've misunderstood the chairman. He's just angry. After all, Young Master Lu is not capable enough. He still needs President Gu's care in the future. Why would the chairman kill President Gu?"
Qiao Xi looked up innocently. "I see! So the chairman doesn't want to kill Ah Zheng. I'm really too happy about this!"
Gu Weiming was so angry that his entire body was trembling.
Qiao Xi comforted Gu Zheng softly, saying, "Ah Zheng, it's okay. The chairman doesn't want to kill you. Didn't the chairman and Madam Gu come looking for you just now? They hope you can give that plot of land to Lu Yan, don't they?
"You have so many resources in your hands, so you don't lack this plot of land. However, Young Master Lu's ability is limited. If he doesn't get this plot of land, how will he have the chance to stand out? Why don't you just give it to him?"
Gu Zheng remained silent.
Qiao Xi was anxious. "Ah Zheng! Say something! Promise me that you'll give this plot of land to Lu Yan. Although he's inferior to you in everything, he'll complain about you relentlessly! He'll get the chairman and Madam Gu to beat and scold you. Just agree!"
Chairman Gu was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot. "You…"
Before he could retort, everyone's angry voices came from outside.
"Chairman Gu, Lu Yan obtaining this plot of land won't prove anything. Since it's a bid, it should be a fair competition. Why do you have to play such tricks?"
"Lu Yan is incapable and only knows how to complain. He even instigated the chairman to beat President Gu to death. In order to achieve his goal, he's unscrupulous. Who would dare to do business with such a person? It's fine that he doesn't have the ability, but he's also so sinister. He's really disgusting!"
"Who said that Lu Yan doesn't have any ability? Isn't he quite good at complaining?"
Everyone was indignant. "President Gu, isn't it just a plot of land? Since he wants it, let him have it. Our family has a plot of land in the southern suburbs and we're about to auction it. As long as you want it, I'll give it to you at the lowest price."
"Chairman Gu, you're forcing President Gu to give the land to Lu Yan. Is this what a father should do?"
Gu Weiming's pupils constricted.
Wait! When did this group of people appear?
He turned around and saw everyone's angry gazes. His heart skipped a beat.
It was over… Could it be that they had heard everything?
