Chapter 496: He’ll Wear You Down!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo StuEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Mrs. Gu could not do anything to her son and was still angry when she returned to the Gu family home.

The angrier she got, the more disobedient he became. He completely disregarded her as his mother.

However, it did not take long for her to stop being angry. In just two days, the stable Gu Corporation suddenly experienced another setback. Someone had managed to outbid her for the rights to a project she was interested in. Several intense bidding rounds ended in her failure to secure the contract, resulting in the company’s stock prices dropping. She watched the events unfold helplessly, her anxiety spiking.

The situation got so bad that even Gu Guoliang had to return to the company.

It reminded him too much of the last tthe company was sent into turmoil. Although Gu Zhichuan had kept mum about the culprit, Gu Guoliang eventually uncovered the truth through different means.

Gu Guoliang took a drag of his cigar, exhaling the smoke with a heavy expression as he eyed Gu Zhichuan, who stood before him.

“I can’t let you ruin the Gu family and all we’ve built up after years of hard work. Let’s get straight to the point. It’s Wen Yanqing’s doing, isn’t it?” Gu Guoliang breathed out a cloud of smoke.

Gu Zhichuan kept silent.

“Getting into fights over a woman… It’s not worth it. Get rid of whatever useless thoughts are polluting your head and heart,” Gu Guoliang said.

“I can’t do it.” Gu Zhichuan gritted out through clenched teeth.

“This isn’t a discussion!” Gu Guoliang slammed the table.

Mrs. Gu, realizing whose fault it was, becfurious. “I was wondering why there were always people targeting our family. So it’s that scourge, Lin Gantang! There are plenty of fish in the sea. Why must you fixate on Lin Gantang? Plenty of women would be more than happy to be with you!”

“I’ll settle the matter, just like I did last time.” Gu Zhichuan pulled a long face.

“How much did you need to invest the last time? Perhaps you can afford to do it again, but what about the next time?” Gu Guoliang asked. “How many more times can you endure the consequences of your actions? He’ll wear you down!”

“Look at yourself.” Mrs. Gu pointed at him, saying, “How can you love a woman who cares nothing about you? Haven’t I introduced countless other women who are infinitely better than Lin Gantang? I care for you, but you always ignore me!”

“Is it reallyyou care bout?” Gu Zhichuan retorted. “What you care about is your face and the money in your hands. You didn’t agree with my choice of Lin Gantang, and you even preventedfrom being with Feng Yangyang. You’re just worried the company will lose money because of me, which would affect your cushy lifestyle!”

“You! Gu Guoliang!” Mrs. Gu flew into a rage. “Look at your son!”

Did Gu Guoliang not know what kind of person his wife was? He ignored her and said to Gu Zhichuan, “Look atand your mother. We’ve lived our lives together. Zhichuan, love fades with time. Give it ten or twenty years, and you’ll be in the sposition as us even if you manage to win Lin Gantang over. Twenty years from now, when you look back, you’ll realize how ridiculous your current obsession is.”

“I can’t accept this. She almost becmy wife.”

Gu Guoliang slammed the table fiercely. “You were the one who agreed to call off the marriage!”

Mrs. Gu could not bear to see her son mooning over a woman and shouted angrily, “Why don’t we arrange a marriage for him and be done with it?! How about the Wen family? I’m sure they won’t purposely try to make things difficult for us.”

Gu Guoliang took a puff of his cigar and narrowed his eyes slightly. It made sense. “But he has someone in his heart now. Who would be willing to marry off their daughter?”

“Why not? Muzhen is dead on our son. Our son is just blind to her affections,” Mrs. Gu harrumphed. “The Shi family isn’t as well off as us, but they’re not bad either. At least they are far better than that Feng Yangyang!”

“In that case, I’ll talk with Mr. Shi.” Gu Guoliang decided.

Gu Zhichuan saw the two of them talking to themselves and left, indifferent to their petty schemes. “I will not attend the engagement,” he said..
