CHAPTER 423: CHAPTER 423: LET ME MEET AN JUNXI

Zhi Zhi wanted to bite her tongue. Did she make her question so obvious today?

She wanted to find an excuse to muddle through, but You Lifei told her first: "You’d better give up. My brother may always be rumored with female celebrities, but he definitely won’t marry someone from within the circle."

After You Lifei finished talking, the director signaled her to get in position, the makeup artist came to touch up her makeup, and she forgot about the matter.

Zhi Zhi’s heart dropped a stitch. Manager You doesn’t like people within the circle?

He Sirui was in her father’s office, and He Feng pointed at the contract in front of him, questioning her: "The Gu Family’s contract was ruined by you just like this. How exactly are you handling things?"

He Sirui didn’t dare to refute. She’s an only child, her father has cultivated her to be his heir since childhood, expecting a lot from her, and she’s used to being scolded by her father.

He Sirui remained silent, He Feng continued, "You said you had confidence in Gu Yikun, I believed you, and what’s the result? Not only did you fail to secure the new phase of cooperation, but you also ruined this almost completed contract!"

He Sirui explained, "Dad, I didn’t do anything. At most, I said a few idle words at the Mingfang Association, but those words were not spread by me..."

She was just talking along with Yin Manqiu about An Junxi, but what she hated most was that brainless pig Gu Qianlan. Saying that An Junxi was kicked out of the Gu Family Mansion, otherwise would she have stepped into this pit?

It’s also her fault for trusting Gu Qianlan too much; how can Gu Qianlan’s words have any credibility!

He Sirui hated herself for taking the wrong step. She never expected Gu Yikun would terminate the contract with her because of this.

That day, his secretary asked her to go to the Gu Family. She thought he finally wanted to see her, but instead, she was met with a termination contract.

He Sirui wanted to salvage this cooperation opportunity. Without the collaboration with the Gu Family, not just the company’s loss, there would be no reason for her to see him anymore.

She tried to remain calm and said to Gu Yikun, "I might have misspoken at the Mingfang Association, but I wasn’t intentionally saying anything about Jun Xi. I just asked a few people about certain rumors. Yi Ke, you’ve always been impartial and wouldn’t..."

Gu Yikun replied, "When it concerns my wife, I am just this partial."

He Sirui pushed Gu Qianlan forward, "Yi Ke, there might be some misunderstanding here. I heard it from Qianlan. She said there was a family quarrel, and Uncle Gu kicked, kicked Jun Xi out."

Gu Yikun raised his eyebrows, "Very well, I am very fair. Gu Qianlan will not be spared either."

He truly is too lenient. That girl Gu Qianlan wants to test his limits time and again.

He Sirui wanted to struggle a bit more. Seeing how he was merciless even toward his sister, she knew this couldn’t be salvaged anymore.

He Sirui stared straight at the man before her. He really didn’t give her any room at all. He’s too ruthless.

Love and hate, just in this instant.

Gu Yikun, is this how you protect An Junxi? Are you willing to be enemies with everyone for her?

He Sirui’s hatred kept spreading. She’s the dignified heiress of He’s Jewelry, the inheritor. Even though she couldn’t compare to the Gu Family, she was still much better than most.

How could someone of her status be inferior to An Junxi?

Gu Yikun, you will regret this, definitely!

He Sirui took several deep breaths, "President Gu, it’s a pity we can’t cooperate this time. I’m very grateful for the lesson you taught me today. If there’s a chance in the future, I will definitely repay you."

Gu Yikun ignored her provocation, pressed the intercom, and ordered Secretary Wang to see her out.

Faced with her father’s questioning, He Sirui said, "Dad, the contract is gone, it’s gone. I will make up for it elsewhere."

She wouldn’t cry and claim grievances, only prove herself through achievements.

He Feng mocked, "Tell me, what method?"

He Sirui said, "I know Senye Group’s Yin Handedong is interested in the Gu Family..."

She hadn’t said a few words, and He Feng slammed the table, "We can never ally with Senye. Never! Forget about it!"

"Why? Dad, it’s been so many years, shouldn’t you let go of your grievances with the Yin Family?"

He Feng scolded, "What do you know? Yin Handedong is a hypocrite. Between Senye and the Gu Family, we can only choose the Gu Family. Now it’s ruined by you. How can you make me feel comfortable handing over my life’s work to you!"

He Sirui didn’t expect her dad to react so strongly. He Feng still wanted to educate his daughter when someone pushed open the office door, "I asked you to cultivate her well, not to scold her like this."

He Feng looked at the person at the door, "Why are you back?"

He Sirui saw her mother appear. She only showed her childlike side in front of her mother, with reddened eyes, she went to hug her mom, "Mom, you’re back."

Jiang Liu patted her daughter, said to her husband, "If I didn’t return, I wouldn’t know what kind of state our daughter would be in after your scoldings."

She had been hiding abroad for many years, finally returned now.

He Feng didn’t dare to speak harshly to his wife, "I was educating our daughter. We cooperated well with the Gu Family, but she interfered and ruined everything. How could I not be angry?"

Jiang Liu said, "There will always be a way. I heard Gu Kuangyong’s granddaughter’s birthday party invited our family. I just came back, let me go meet An Junxi."

He Sirui was surprised, "Mom, you want to go?"

He Feng was the first to object, "You just returned, take proper rest at home."

Jiang Liu coldly asked her husband, "My past with Yin Handedong is old history. What else do you need to worry about? He Feng, I’ve been married to you for years, have I ever done anything to wrong our He Family? Why are you guarding against me like this?"

He Feng couldn’t stay tough, "Go then, go if you want to!"

He Sirui said, "Mom, I can go by myself."

Jiang Liu stroked her daughter’s hair, "Silly girl, you’ve been bullied by An Junxi like this, and you think I don’t know? That wild girl An Junxi won’t boast for too long."

He Sirui’s heart settled, "Mom, will you help me?"

"I came back to help you. I have only one daughter. Who would I help if I don’t help you?"

He Sirui smiled. With her mother stepping in, the Gu Family’s event would definitely be interesting.

Gong Xiaoyu received the invitation letter for the Gu Family’s event. She immediately replied to An Junxi, "I will attend Ai Xi’s birthday."

An Junxi wanted to ask about the current state between her senior and Yu Zheng. She knew her senior was also troubled, so she held back from asking, "Okay, be on time."

Gong Xiaoyu looked at the invitation letter. This party would certainly be attended together with Yu Zheng.

She had told Yu Zheng to cool down for a few days, hadn’t paid attention to him for a while. Aunt Yu personally came to find her, promising, "That day was all a misunderstanding. Yu Zheng and You Lifen really didn’t happen to anything. If something truly happened, Aunt wouldn’t absolutely cover for Yu Zheng."

Gong Xiaoyu understood the elder’s anxiety, she said, "Aunt, let’s give Yu Zheng a few days. I want to know his choice."

Mrs. Yu got anxious, "What other choice is there? You’re already engaged. Isn’t marriage a natural progression?"

Gong Xiaoyu calmed Aunt’s emotions, saying, "Aunt, please give us some time."
