As Gu Ruxue was ntioned, Gu Zhenkang instantly beca happy. His anger was no longer apparent.
His mother told him that Gu Chaoyan was hanging out with Lord Huai these days, so he should treat her better if he expected to get sothing good out of her.
He also thought about deaning himself by treating this ugly girl better, but now...
The son of the officer of the Ministry of Revenue was dead, and her marital arrangent was gone. What was more, she ruined the stores! That was why he got rather furious!
Also...
Even if Lord Huai needed her dical skills. So what? She was just going to be nothing more than a doctor! And she was going to be ignored when she was not needed.
Ruxue was different.
Thinking of what the ambassador of Lord Ling said, Gu Zhenkang was sure that Ruxue was going to have a more promising future!
With Ruxue standing by his side he was not going to flatter that ugly girl born by the daughter of a business family. Never!
Gu Ruxue had been watching the show happily when she suddenly heard what her father said about her. She got confused. Could it have been because of Prince who just woke up? What was her father thinking about her?
Anyway, Gu Ruxue found herself back in her original position again.
She threw a look of pride to Gu Chaoyan.
Seeing the situation getting worse, Mada Gu could not sit still any more, but stood up and ca to Gu Chaoyan with her cane supporting her. “Don’t bla your father. He is just too anxious.”
“...”
“But you should learn from this lesson too. The Gu Family have been running the stores for so many years and you sold them without telling us! I am not helping you this ti, receive the punishnt.” Mada Gu was very displeased. “You better get those stores back!”
Gu Chaoyan was just in the middle of thinking about Gu Zhenkang’s suddenly changed attitude, when she brought herself back. Hearing what Madam Gu said, she turned cold.
How shaless these people are! They really think that they are the owner of the dowries!
Getting the stores back? Never!
Since the Gu Family cared so much about the money, she could instill so hope into them. With her eyes upon Mada Gu, Gu Chaoyan said with a serious tone. “I am never getting anything back from Lord Huai.”
“...”
“But Lord Huai would not treat us badly. We sold the stores to him, so he offered sothing profitable back. Lord Huai is going to use the stores to open a restaurant, and half of the revenue will belong to us.”
“...”
“Just think about it, Mada Gu. Those stores were running a bleak business before...”
“...”
“Now we are working with Lord Huai. Do you think that he will earn less money than us?”
“...”
Gu Chaoyan said those tempting words.
That moved Madam Gu as well.
When the Lin Family lost the position as the imperial business family, the Gu Mansion lost its supporters. Those stores could not be developed well without supporters... so Lord Huai’s involvent was definitely going to boost up the revenue!
“He is really offering half of the inco?” Mada Gu asked.
“Yes.”
“That sounds good.” Mada Gu beca expectant again. If the Gu Family could get enough money, they could use the money to help Zhenkang to get so promotion in career.
Then she glared at Gu Zhenkang, suggesting that he should not lecture Gu Chaoyan any more.
Gu Zhenkang snorted, leaving Gu Chaoyan alone.
Since the issue of the stores was solved, Mada Gu asked Gu Chaoyan to go back to her pavilion first and leave Mrs. Gu to deal with the rest.
Then she asked Gu Zhenkang to join her in the room.
The mont they stepped into the room, she asked her son seriously, “What is wrong with you? I told you to treat the girl nicely, otherwise she would not help you in the future!”
