"No." Yan Zhengchen's tone darkened. "Gong Lu, don't be willful."
On the other end of the line, Gong Lu could hear the unhappiness in Yan Zhengchen's tone. He touched his tall nose helplessly. "I'm already qualified. Let Jiaojiao take a look at me tomorrow. I'm flying to White City tonight. "
He was in Shang Jing now, but he couldn't escape the curse of being controlled by Yan Zhengchen.
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Yan Zhengchen was instantly appeased, and his tone returned to normal.
The two of them chatted for a while more before Gong Lu hung up.
Knock, knock, knock.
Someone knocked on the door. Gong Lu stood up to open it.
Outside the door stood a beautiful woman with fair skin and curly blond hair.
Gong Lu's eyes were almost identical to this beautiful woman's, and his looks were also somewhat similar.
"Mom," Gong Lu called out softly.
"Come with me," Catherine said with a cold expression.
Gong Lu lowered his eyes and followed her downstairs.
When they arrived at the living room, Catherine sat down on the sofa and gestured for him to sit down as well.
Gong Lu sat down at a seat further away from her.
"What have you been busy with recently?" Catherine asked.
"I'm busy with god grandfather's instructions," Gong Lu said slowly.
"You're helping Chi Jiao settle some matters, right?" Catherine smiled ambiguously.
Gong Lu nodded indifferently. "You can say that. This is my duty." “
If it weren't for Ou Zhenglin and his wife, he would have died when he was very young.
His life was saved by Ou Zhenglin and his wife. Ou Zhenglin and his wife asked him to be Jiaojiao's guardian. When Jiaojiao needed help, he had to unconditionally provide help. He agreed without hesitation.
On one hand, it was to repay their kindness. On the other hand, he had grown up with Jiaojiao and treated her as his biological sister from the bottom of his heart.
Actually, he wasn't the only one. Yan Zhengchen, Gu Xian, Chi Yexi, and Shen Liao were the same as him.
"If you want to help Chi Jiao, I won't interfere. I have a good impression of that young lady, "Catherine said slowly. Catherine said slowly, "But you can't delay your life because of other people's affairs. Gong Lu, why didn't you go for the meeting I arranged for you yesterday? "
"Mom, I told you in advance that I won't go." Gong Lu's calm expression finally changed a little as he said with a frown.
"Why not?" Catherine's tone sank.
"I don't plan to get married." Gong Lu looked up at Catherine.
"You are the heir of the Gong family." Catherine slammed the armrest of the sofa and looked at Gong Lu coldly. "When you make any decision, you have to consider the Gong family's interests first. If you don't plan to get married, how are you going to make your father hand over the family business to you in the future? "
"If I have to marry a woman to inherit the family business, then I'll give up," Gong Lu said without hesitation.
Pa!
As soon as he finished speaking, Catherine raised her hand and slapped him hard on the face.
Her beautiful face was full of anger as she glared at Gong Lu. "I'll take what you said just now as a joke. You're not allowed to say that again! "
Gong Lu pursed his thin lips and remained silent.
However, his gaze was still stubborn.
When Catherine saw the bright red handprint on Gong Lu's cheek, a look of guilt flashed across her eyes for a fleeting moment.
She took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
Catherine calmed down a little and said slowly, "Gong Lu, tell me, is the reason why you're not getting married related to Yan Zhengchen?"
