Deal

“Why don’t we make a deal?” Lan Long cut Yun Liu off. Having been interrupted midway through, Yun Liu swallowed her words and stared at Lan Long. Lan Long rubbed the bridge of his nose as he continued, “You break Shi Nian and

Yun Nan up, and I’ll give you Gu Corporation!”

Yun Liu’s jaw dropped, and she looked at Lan Long in shock. “What?” Lan Long asked. “You can’t do it? I do worry; can you manage the Gu Corporation I give you well if you can’t even do such a little thing?”

Yun Liu nodded vigorously. “I can! I can do it!”

Lan Long raised his eyebrows, unconvinced. Yun Liu’s voice trembled as she inquired, “Mr. Lan, are you serious? You’ll truly give me Gu Corporation so long as I can break Shi Nian and Yun Nan up?”

“What did you plan to trade with me for the Gu family in the first place?” Lan Long insouciantly asked.

Yun Liu was at a loss for words. Lan Long flipped through the folder in his hands and glanced at the documents before commenting, “Oh! You planned to help Shi Gao bring in some rich young ladies as goods?”

“I’ll definitely make Shi Nian and Yun Nan divorce!” Yun Liu spoke carefully. “For sure!” She would gladly accept the task of making Shi Nian and Yun Nan divorce, even without Gu Corporation as a reward. To her, Shi Nian was the goal, and Gu Corporation was simply an additional bonus.

Lan Long didn’t say anything and continued flipping through the documents. Seeing that, Yun Liu understood and quickly stated, “Mr. Lan, I’ll continue with my plan and introduce some friends to Miss Shi Gao.”

Lan Long didn’t look up from the folder as he told her, “Shi Gao won’t be here in the future.”

Yun Liu was stunned by that. Right then, someone gently knocked on the office’s door thrice, then pushed the door open and entered. Gu Man walked in with a seductive sway, smiling fawningly as she uttered, “Mr. Lan!”

Yun Liu was dumbfounded, and so was Gu Man when she noticed her. Lan Long looked up and informed Yun Liu, “Oh, Gu Man will be in charge of this place from now. You can just introduce your friends to her.”

He then told Gu Man, “Yun Liu has a different mission, but she says she wants to introduce some girls to you. Do a good job; don’t disappoint me.”

Gu Man glanced at Yun Liu and respectfully replied to Lan Long, “Yes, Mr. Lan!” She then turned to size up Yun Liu. “I actually forgot about you, my talented cousin. My mistake. I hope that you’ll strongly support me in the future, dear cousin!”

She looked at Yun Liu with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes, and Yun Liu gazed at Gu Man in shock, her mind whirling. Lan Long stood up and walked out, saying, “You two have a good chat. I’ll be taking my leave now.” With that, he left his office to his two subordinates.

Yun Liu composed herself first and remarked, “You managed to be highly regarded by Mr. Lan, Gu Man. You’re quite amazing. If Aunt Chang Hui and the others know about this, they’ll surely see you in a new light!”

Gu Man unceremoniously sat on the sofa, crossed her legs, and began to trim her nails. She casually replied, “Who cares about what they think? I’m nothing but a pet dog to the Gu family, sucking up to them in every way possible to please my masters. I didn’t expect to gain Mr. Lan’s favor after being chased out by them. The Gu family? Hmph! They’re nothing! I won’t return even if they ask me to!”

She gave Yun Liu a once-over and commented disdainfully, “I really don’t get why you would leave the Yun family that adores and dotes on you excessively to go to the long-decayed and infested Gu family. How ignorant! If I were you, I would continue to ride on the Yun family’s coattails instead of choosing the Gu family. Although you’re an adopted daughter in the Yun family, it’s still a hundred times better than being the Gu family’s biological daughter! Hmph! Talk about taking your good fortune for granted!”

Yun Liu took a deep breath to calm herself down before putting on a smile and saying, “You’re right; what you said is exactly what’s eating at me the most. But I’ve made my bed. I can only continue to move forward on the path I chose, and there’s no turning back. I hope you understand.”

Hearing this, Gu Man felt slightly better. She gave Yun Liu a side glance before stating, “There’s no use in asking for my understanding; Mr. Lan has to approve of you! Do well on the mission Sir gave you, and you’ll definitely be able to make a name for yourself. What did Shi Gao promise you before? Don’t worry; I won’t treat you any worse than Shi Gao did. If the terms she previously promised are reasonable, I’ll fulfill them for her. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not doing it for her; no one hates her more than I do. I’m doing it for Mr. Lan. After all, I’m someone who cares about the big picture.”

Yun Liu quickly followed her lead and responded, “Yes, you’re the genuine type, Gu Man. You’re the most straightforward and honest. When I work with you in the future, I can do things boldly with an eased mind.”

Gu Man was in a great mood after hearing this round of flattery. She looked at

Yun Liu and asked, “What do you plan to do about Gu Fei’s matter?”

Yun Liu stared straight back and deliberately inquired, “Do you want to suppress this matter for the Gu family, Gu Man?”

As expected, that got a furious reaction from Gu Man. “Suppress it for them? Why should I? In their dreams!”

With a thump, Yun Liu’s heart settled back in her chest. “Don’t worry, Gu Man. I Imow most of the reporters at the scene. I’ll give them the word,” Yun Liu fawningly assured her..
