Chapter 294: I'll Always Be Your Brother

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Huang Lilan was a little angry. Ah Yao, children shouldn't care so much. The company's matters have nothing to do with you. Go back to your room and rest.

Even though Gu Yao was simple-minded, he still felt that Gu Zheng was not his mother's biological child.

Back then, when Gu Zheng managed Gu Corporation, he relied on his own strength to build it bit by bit. He did not use any of the Gu family's resources. Now, they actually wanted to snatch it away from him?

He was weak and words were useless, so he went upstairs.

After Gu Yao left, Gu Weiming said obsequiously, Ah Yan, Gu Yao has always thought of Gu Zheng as his biological brother, so he's a little closer to him. However, you know very well that Ah Yao is your younger brother. You have to take good care of him in the future.

Lu Yan nodded with a warm smile.

The group of people was extremely satisfied, but Lu Xiang was still thinking about Gu Zheng.

They all knew Lu Yan's true identity and why they were gathered here today, but they all had a tacit understanding and did not point it out.

To the outside world, it seemed logical for Lu Yan to inherit the Gu family. He was the child of Gu Weiming and Lu Qingyun, who were previously married. He was the most qualified to inherit everything in the Gu family.

As an illegitimate child, Gu Zheng was despised and hated by everyone. He was not qualified to be the head of the Gu family.

If the Gu family let Lu Yan be the heir, everyone would definitely say that Chairman Gu and Madam Gu were kind-hearted.

Everyone would think that although the Gu family had let Lu Qingyun and her child down, this was considered compensation. There was no need to pursue the events of the past anymore.

However, no one would investigate if Lu Yan was really Lu Qingyun's child.

Lu Xiang smiled smugly.

If Lu Qingyun saw this scene, how would she feel? Whether it was the Lu family or the Gu family, no one cared about her. They were all using her.

So what if she was the eldest daughter of the Lu family? In the end, her son was still played by them.

Both families knew of Lu Yan and Gu Zheng's identities. They even pretended to pass off the pauper for the prince. This way, the Lu and Gu families' reputation would be preserved. From now on, the two families would not have to go against each other.

At this moment, Gu Yao was calling Gu Zheng to tell him about the situation just now. However, he realized that Gu Zheng was not replying. He asked hurriedly, Gu Zheng, what exactly is going on? Don't tell me you're Eldest Miss Lu's

None of your business.

Gu Yao was anxious. I'm just concerned about you! If you're not my mother's son, then you're not an illegitimate child. Lu Yan is. You're Eldest Miss Lu's son!

Whether I'm Huang Lilan's son or not, I'm still your elder brother.

Gu Zheng sneered. The Lu and Gu families don't matter to me. You're the only one who's my younger brother. Don't worry. Hurry up and rest.

Gu Yao's heart skipped a beat.

That's right. Gu Zheng had never cared about this because he did not care about the Lu family or the Gu family at all.

In Gu Zheng's eyes, these two families were like clowns, but Gu Yao could not take it lying down.

Gu Yao gritted his teeth. It was all because of Gu Zheng's blood, sweat, and tears that the Gu family could enjoy their riches now. Why should he hand over everything to Lu Yan?

If Gu Zheng really handed it to Lu Yan, he would use his power as a hedonistic son to destroy the entire Gu family!

The next morning, Qiao Xi was awakened by the ringing of her phone. Are you participating in the auction?

Qiao Xi knew that Li City was going to hold a grand auction. She liked one of the violins very much, and Xue Liang had promised to give it to her.

This auction was for charity. The violin was donated by a mysterious madam. It was extremely valuable as a collector's item.

After hanging up, Gu Zheng asked, Do you want to go?

Before Qiao Xi could answer, Gu Zheng interrupted her. I'll go with you.

She opened her mouth. Gu Zheng was the one who wanted to go, yet he said it as though he was only going to accompany her. What a wretched man!

At eight in the evening.

Everyone was already seated. The people present were all big shots of Li City.

These rich and powerful elites not only had successful careers but also good reputations. Hence, they had to attend such a charity auction.

Even if they did not like it, they would have to buy at least two pieces.. Then, they could say that they were doing charity.
