Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself Chapter 802 - Perfume Exchange

Chapter 802: Perfume Exchange

Mu Ming nodded and thought that Mu Ling’s words made sense.
At this moment, Lu Yan walked to a corner and instructed his assistant in a low voice, “Go buy some ointment for bruises.”
“Yes, Young Master!”
Mu Ming looked in the direction of the voice and could not help but ask, “Is he Mo Yuan’s biological younger brother?”
Mu Ling frowned and sized him up. “He doesn’t look like him! He doesn’t look like Mo Yuan at all, and he’s not as handsome as Mo Yuan!”
Lu Yan was also considered a handsome man, but he looked ordinary compared to Gu Zheng. Although they were biological brothers, the two of them did not have any similarities.
Mu Ming reminded him, “You can’t just judge a book by its cover. Gu Zheng was raised as an illegitimate child since he was young. Now, his relationship with the Lu family is like fire and water. Lu Yan was raised by the Lu family and even nurtured as the heir by the Lu and Gu families. He has more than Gu Zheng.”
Mu Ling suddenly thought of what had happened to her and her brother. They originally had a happy family. It was those people from the Tang family who schemed against their parents, causing them to lose their lives. They even took over the family and chased the siblings away.
Their experiences were similar to Gu Zheng’s, but the difference was that Gu Zheng relied on his own ability to become the God of Li City. Even if the Gu and Lu families joined forces, they would not be able to shake his status. Meanwhile, she and her brother did not have the ability to overthrow the Tang family for the time being. They could only endure it and wait for an opportunity.
Ten minutes later, the assistant returned to the lounge.
Lu Yan lifted his pants. His knees were red and swollen. He gritted his teeth.
“Young Master, what happened?” the assistant exclaimed.
Lu Yan carefully recalled that he had only gone to see Qiao Xi to test Han Ye. After seeing her, he was very sure that Han Ye had already passed away. He did not know why his knees suddenly started to hurt. What exactly happened?
The assistant asked tentatively, “Young Master, who dares to offend you like this?”
Lu Yan frowned. The only person who could attack him was Qiao Xi, but he did not remember Qiao Xi hitting him at all. It could not be that he was the one who knelt on the floor and knocked himself out, right?
After thinking for a long time, Lu Yan said with certainty, “It’s Qiao Xi.”
The assistant’s mouth twitched slightly as he asked in disbelief, “Who? You mean Mrs. Gu?”
Lu Yan nodded.
The assistant: “…” Mrs. Gu looked so weak and petite. How could she beat Young Master Lu up like this?
Mu Ling, who was outside the lounge, also said in disbelief, “How is that possible?! Who can Black Tide defeat with her small physique? Lu Yan is too tasteless. He actually blames Black Tide after being beaten up?”
Lu Yan changed the topic. “Has the leader of the Dark Net arrived?”
The assistant replied, “He arrived a long time ago and is waiting outside.”
After a while, the assistant walked in with the siblings. Mu Ming spoke first, “Young Master Lu, the matter you asked us to investigate has been concluded. Han Ye has indeed passed away, and he doesn’t have any family. You can use his paintings without worry.”
Mu Ling instantly understood her brother’s intentions. Black Tide and Mo Yuan had helped them, so they would return the favor. At that time, they could use Mo Yuan to deal with the Tang family. Lu Yan would also be implicated and suffer a huge loss.
This game was a mutually beneficial deal for them. Both parties had attacked their enemies, but they were not affected at all.
…
A month later, all the companies in Li City were preparing their New Year’s limited edition products. Gu Corporation was also in the midst of preparing. Coincidentally, Li City was holding a perfume exchange, so Gu Corporation sent their own perfumers to participate. As the president of Gu Corporation, Gu Zheng had to be present to cheer on the perfumers.
Qiao Xi was very interested in perfumes, so she followed along.
The two of them sat in the car. Gu Zheng slowly said, “Mrs. Gu, guess who will win this New Year’s product competition?”
Qiao Xi smiled and said, “Is it even necessary to ask? Of course, it’s your Gu Corporation!”
“Are you so sure? But the perfumers in the company have already been poached by Lu Corporation. Without unique packaging to attract attention, it won’t be easy to win,” Gu Zheng said casually.
Qiao Xi curled her lips. “President Gu, I’m your wife! There’s no need to hide anything from me, right?! Although those perfumers under you are newcomers, I’ve smelled the scents they made and know what achievements they have. They’re all geniuses in perfumery. Are you still afraid of losing even though you’ve taken these geniuses under your wing?”
