Chapter 854: Chapter 854: This Ti You Can’t Be Capricious!
Lu Mingzhen fell silent as he listened, for indeed, he was locked in a mutual calculation with Gu Chengqiao.
Sotis he felt that his younger son was actually the most like him—cold and heartless, decisive and ruthless, with a venomous eye that could penetrate the essence of a problem in an instant.
This son was naturally suited for the deceit and treachery of business struggles; he never lost his way. He was always calm and rational, never sentintal, nor would he easily fall for a woman, letting her sway his judgnt.
The most outstanding heir of a family should be exactly like this.
But regardless of whether Gu Ranxuan could inherit the Guotai Group or not, she was the best choice for Lu Lingche’s alliance marriage.
Because Lu Lingche didn’t like her, she was all the more suitable.
Liking soone too much could be a bad thing.
“Gu Ranxuan suits you well. Whether it was Qiao Yin before or Lan Yuyi, neither were right for you, which is why problems kept arising. If you could marry Gu Ranxuan, then your future marriage should be stable, and you won’t get a divorce that easily. After all, the Gu Family is a major clan and whether it’s you or Gu Ranxuan, considering a divorce would involve many factors. The two of you would be bound together.”
Lu Lingche didn’t want to be bound to Gu Ranxuan. Lu Mingzhen was right; if he truly married Gu Ranxuan, getting a divorce would definitely not be easy.
He said coldly, “Whether Gu Ranxuan suits or not isn’t for you to decide. I haven’t seen you care about my marriage before. When grandmother wanted to marry Qiao Yin, you approved, didn’t you? You thought she was of common birth and wouldn’t overshadow my older brother’s wife, that marrying her wouldn’t pose a threat to my brother.”
“Nonsense!”
Lu Mingzhen spoke sowhat angrily, “I agreed to your marriage with Qiao Yin out of respect for your grandmother! Qiao Yin’s grandmother saved your grandmother’s life, and your grandmother wanted to repay that life-saving grace. That’s the only reason I agreed to your marriage with Qiao Yin! It had nothing to do with Qiao Yin’s family background!”
Yet, Lu Lingche didn’t believe his words, “Respecting the old lady is only one aspect; you favor my older brother and worry that I will suppress him by leveraging the Yue Family’s power. You never cared about my upbringing or my marriage, so you don’t have to start now.”
“If I don’t look after you, who will? If your older brother were still here, do you think I’d want to bother with you? You never listen, dealing with you is harder than looking after a dog!”
“Since you know I don’t listen, why bother with ? I’ve grown up without your guidance anyway. Don’t you think it’s too late for you to start now?”
“Even if it’s late, I still have to do it! The Lu Family is left with only you now, and you must shoulder the responsibility of carrying on the family legacy! Your marriage has to be decided by , and this ti you can’t be willful!”
“The Chairman hasn’t forgotten, has he? I’ve already renounced my inheritance rights. The responsibility of carrying on the family legacy isn’t on my head anymore; it rests on your grandson’s head now. You should properly look after your grandson instead.”
Lu Mingzhen paused for a mont.
He had indeed forgotten about Lu Lingche giving up his inheritance rights.
It was only when Lu Lingche brought it up that he rembered he had promised his wife they would get Lu Lingche to sign an agreent explicitly renouncing his rights.
But if he really made Lu Lingche sign such an agreent, then Lu Lingche would have even more reason not to listen to him, and marrying Gu Ranxuan might beco even more impossible.
When Lu Mingzhen didn’t respond, Lu Lingche couldn’t help but sneer, “Are you really my father? You’re afraid I’ll take the family property, wanting to leave it all to my older brother’s child, yet you also want to obey your every command, marrying a woman of your choosing. Do you think I’m a puppet, devoid of any autonomy?”
“I want you to marry Gu Ranxuan for your own good! How can you be so foolish as not to understand what Gu Ranxuan and the Gu Family can bring you?”
