At this moment, passersby happened to hear the old master’s roar and immediately gasped. However, they did not notice the stiffness in the old master’s tone.
Before everyone could react, they saw Qiao Xi’s eyes turn red. She was as weak as a little white flower. “Old Master Lu, Gu Zheng has been bearing the reputation of being an illegitimate child for so many years. He even had to endure the Lu family’s revenge. Now that he has recovered his identity, the Lu family hasn’t even apologized. Now, you’re even forcing Ah Zheng to give up his resources to Lu Yan! They’re both your grandsons, so why are you biased toward Lu Yan? Moreover, Lu Yan isn’t good at doing business and has already caused the Lu family to lose billions. Aren’t you being too arbitrary by insisting on doing this?!”
Lu Yan clenched his fists angrily.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, Old Master Lu seemed to be possessed as he roared, “Even if Lu Yan isn’t good at business, he’s still the grandson of our Lu family. I want to give all my resources to him!”
Qiao Xi covered her face and cried. “I finally know why you don’t like Ah Zheng. It must be because Ah Zheng is too outstanding and makes you feel pressured. The reason you like Lu Yan is because he’s stupid and useless, but what’s the point of telling me all this? Go look for Ah Zheng and tell him! I can’t make the decision regarding the company’s matters!”
Everyone revealed looks of disdain. Mrs. Gu was already crying, yet Old Master Lu was still unwilling to let her off! He did not dare to look for trouble with Gu Zheng but was making things difficult for a weak woman here. He was simply going too far!
Old Master Lu stood in front of Qiao Xi and was unwilling to let her leave.
Qiao Xi lowered her eyes and said weakly, “Old Master, don’t be angry anymore. Take care of your body! Otherwise, what will Lu Yan do if you’re not around? He’s not good at business and is useless. Sooner or later, he’ll destroy the Lu family!”
Old Master Lu was instantly angry. “Shut up! It’s all because of you, you b*tch! You angered me! Why are you here for the exchange?! Get lost immediately!”
Qiao Xi’s eyes changed. In the next second, Old Master Lu raised the walking cane in his hand and smashed it fiercely at Qiao Xi.
Everyone was shocked and hurriedly rushed over to stop Old Master Lu. “Old Master, what are you doing?”
“Mrs. Gu only told the truth. You can’t hit her!”
“He actually wanted to hit Mrs. Gu in public. How does he bully her behind our backs, then?! If he’s really upset about this, he can look for President Gu! The Lu family clearly doesn’t dare to face President Gu head-on, so they’re making things difficult for Mrs. Gu behind his back.”
“Could it be Lu Yan’s idea?! Now that Lu Yan has officially taken over Lu Corporation, he definitely has to make a name for himself. However, President Gu is also releasing a new perfume, so perhaps Lu Yan got Old Master Lu to look for trouble with Mrs. Gu.”
Hearing everyone’s discussion, Lu Yan’s gentle face instantly darkened.
Qiao Xi was still crying. “No wonder the old master stopped me from scolding Lu Yan and wanted to hit me. It turns out that he’s afraid that Gu Zheng and I will threaten Lu Yan’s interests. But they’re both your grandsons, so how could he…”
As she spoke, Qiao Xi raised her eyes to look at Lu Yan, only to see the corners of Lu Yan’s mouth twitch slightly.
At this moment, everyone was indignant. Was there something wrong with the Lu family’s heads? Why did they have to go against the powerful Gu Zheng? Meanwhile, they treated the useless Lu Yan as their treasure and doted on him!
Although everyone did not say anything, their eyes were filled with disdain. Their impression of the Lu family was greatly reduced. If the Lu family was really handed to Lu Yan, who would dare to work with them in the future?
Old Master Lu had been in the business world for decades and had never been looked down on like this. His chest instantly hurt as he gritted his teeth. “Qiao Xi!”
Lu Yan hurriedly went forward to support the old master. When the old master felt someone else’s touch, his eyes instantly returned to normal. He hesitated for a few seconds and really did not understand why he suddenly wanted to hit Qiao Xi.
He did indeed hate Qiao Xi, but he would not beat her up in public.
Lu Yan walked forward and looked at Qiao Xi with a smile. “Xi Xi, I’m really sorry. Grandpa is old and rash. He didn’t deliberately target you. Let’s forget about this matter.”
Qiao Xi grunted coldly. “Young Master Lu, how can you say those words so easily? After all, you’re not the one who almost got beaten up. Are you just going to let this go?”
The smile on Lu Yan’s face froze as he clenched his fists.
“I naturally don’t want to bicker with all of you, so I’ll have to trouble the Lu family to stay away from me in the future and not disturb my life anymore.” Qiao Xi left angrily after she finished speaking.
