Chapter 33: Misunderstanding

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“The He family has agreed?”

It was rare for He Youran to be so gossipy.

“Not yet, but I’ll convince them.” Gu Zimu’s gaze shifted for a moment before he looked at He Youran again, his gaze becoming firm.

He believed that He Youran would ask this because she still had feelings for him.

However, his engagement with He Xue’er was still there, so He Youran couldn’t take this step with ease.

He walked over to He Youran and looked at her with deep affection.

“Youran, are you willing to work hard with me?”

Just as He Youran was about to say “No” decisively, Gu Zimu grabbed her hand. The man’s hot body temperature traveled through her skin, causing her to momentarily forget about her reaction.

“The marriage agreement between the Gu and He families doesn’t specify who I have to marry. The only condition our family has is the transfer of your mother’s company,” Gu Zimu said. “I know that it’s the only thing your mother left for you, but Youran, for me, can you sacrifice a little? Don’t worry. Even if you give the transfer of the company to the Gu family, the company will still be yours. We will be husband and wife, a community of shared fate. After we get married, I will convince my parents to add your name back to the company.”

Gu Zimu smiled and his tone was firm, as if He Youran had already agreed to his request.

He Youran was speechless.

She pulled her hand back, interrupting this narcissistic man’s confession.

“I’m sorry, I never thought of marrying you. I won’t transfer my mother’s company either.”

However, the Gu family’s attitude made her feel a little strange.

Her mother’s company was a very small pharmaceutical factory. In recent years, because there were no new prescriptions, there were already signs of cash flow difficulties. She couldn’t understand why the Gu family insisted on that company.

Also, the Gu family said that for the Gu and He families to get married together, there must have the transfer of the company.

If she didn’t take it out, would He Xue’er and Gu Zimu not be able to get married? No wonder Chen Meiyu and He Nantian were so reluctant when she went to the He family to take back her mother’s company.

He Youran had a vague feeling that her troubles in Rong city were not over yet. She had to find He Shouxin’s biological father as soon as possible and leave this place.

At the thought of this, He Youran’s attitude became even colder. She bypassed Gu Zimu and headed back to the hotel room.

“Why? Is it because of Lu Qingzhuo?”

Gu Zimu asked coldly.

He took a few steps forward and grabbed He Youran’s wrist.

He used a lot of strength, causing a circle of red marks to appear on He Youran’s snow-white wrist.

“I saw you get out of the Lu family’s car just now.”

His eyes were cold, filled with hatred and jealousy.

Today, He Xue’er called him and described in detail what happened at the number one hospital in Rong city.

This included Lu Qingzhuo’s heroic rescue of the damsel in distress.

No wonder He Youran was indifferent to his confession.

It was because she had a stronger help!

But —

Gu Zimu’s lips curled into a cold smile.

“What do you like about him? Power? Status? Money?”

He admitted that the Lu family was very strong in the past, but now, the eldest son of the Lu family had a leg disease and was impotent. The second son of the Lu family was a sickly man. The Lu family had no successor and had long passed its peak. They were mercilessly suppressed by the He family of imperial capital!

When old madam Lu passed away, no matter how powerful Lu Qingzhu was, how many years could sure keep doing tings?

But the Gu family was different.

The development of the Gu family in recent years was obvious, and there was a tendency for them to march into the imperial capital. In a few years, the wealthy families of the imperial capital would definitely have a place for the Gu family!
