Chapter 312: Lu Yan’s Psychological Quality Is Not Bad
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Everyone present knew very well that the Gu family’s current glory was all because of Gu Zheng. It had nothing to do with Gu Weiming and Lu Yan.
Although Lu Yan was Lu Qingyun’s son, he could not destroy everything that others had worked hard for just because he was the first wife’s son.
Gu Yao also could not stand Lu Yan’s pretentious appearance, but because of his identity, he could only persuade him in a low voice. “Brother… Lu, if Qiao Xi accepts your gift, Gu Zheng will be very angry. He’ll definitely do his best to compete with you. He has so much money that he has nowhere to spend it. Are you sure you can beat him?”
Veins popped out on Lu Yan’s forehead.
Gu Yao said, “If Qiao Xi doesn’t accept your gift, it’s also because she’s thinking about you. If she really wants it, it’ll be really embarrassing if you can’t get it!”
Lu Yan gritted his teeth.
Gu Zheng’s expression was indifferent as if this had nothing to do with him. It made Lu Yan angry.
Why was Gu Zheng so lucky? He did not need to say anything, yet so many people were standing up for him?
Whether it was Gu Yao or Qiao Xi, they should belong to him!
Although Gu Yao’s voice was not loud, everyone heard him and nodded.
It was absolutely wishful thinking for Lu Yan to want to snatch it from Gu Zheng!
He calmed down and said gently, “Miss Qiao.”
Qiao Xi raised her eyes and arched her brows.
“Since you like it, I’ll do my best.”
Qiao Xi sighed in her heart.
‘Lu Yan’s psychological quality is quite good! At this time, he’s still so calm like a noble.
‘Actually, he should know very well whose territory this is. As long as Gu Zheng gives him a look, no matter if Lu Yan is the young master of the Lu family or not, he’ll be immediately chased out. No matter how powerful the Lu family is, they don’t have as much power as Gu Zheng.
‘The people around him are all mocking him, but he can still remain calm. People who achieve great things don’t care about trivial matters!’
Gu Zheng’s gaze turned cold.
Was this woman praising Lu Yan in her heart?
It was just a few mocking laughs. He had been used to it since he was young.
After all, he had suffered thousands of times more pain when he was young.
‘How much effort did Gu Zheng put in to have his career where it is today? What right does Lu Yan have to snatch everything away with just his identity?
‘Poor Gu Zheng. Sigh! Why are they doing this to him?’
Gu Zheng’s heart ached, and a trace of warmth seemed to flow into his dark and cold heart.
Soon, Lu Yan sat down. He was calm as if nothing had happened.
Everyone knew in their hearts that the competitors for the last item were Lu Yan and Gu Zheng, so they all gave up on competing.
The starting price of this island was 1 billion.
Gu Zheng raised his placard, and Lu Yan followed closely behind.
Unknowingly, it had reached 3 billion. Lu Yan was a little hesitant as he looked at Gu Zheng. “President Gu, why don’t you ask if she’s even willing to accept your gift?”
Qiao Xi’s face sank. Nonsense! Was he trying to sow discord between her and Gu Zheng?
Gu Zheng did not even raise his eyes, regarding Lu Yan as invisible.
Lu Yan was calm enough as he muttered to himself, “If she’s unwilling, will you do it by force just like back then?”
Back then? What did that mean?
Qiao Xi was slightly bewildered.
However, Lu Yan did not say anything else and continued to raise the bid to 5 billion.
At this moment, everyone was nervous. They were all curious about who would be the winner of this island.
The only people present who could fork out 5 billion and not go bankrupt were the two of them.
Gu Zheng’s net worth was immeasurable, while Lu Yan held the precious elements of the world. Of course, he was not lacking in money.
When everyone saw this scene, they muttered softly, “From the looks of it, this island must be worth more than 10 billion. We don’t understand the world of the rich.”
“President Gu’s net worth is hundreds of billions. To him, this is just a small amount of money. Moreover, after he bids for that island, he can develop it into a tourist attraction. He’ll be able to recover his capital sooner or later.”
When Gu Zheng called for 7 billion, Lu Yan paused for a moment. “President Gu, you’re richer than I thought!”
