CHAPTER 44: CHAPTER 44: DISTORTING RIGHT AND WRONG

President Liu broke into a cold sweat, shaking his head repeatedly, "No, no, how would I dare."

"Hmph." Tang Yuxiu let out a single sound, holding Gu Yan as he was about to leave.

Seeing this, President Liu’s courage suddenly grew, and he shouted to stop Tang Yuxiu.

Under Tang Yuxiu’s suffocating pressure, President Liu spoke, "President Tang, this woman is mine, you can’t take her away."

Hearing this, Gu Yan’s body trembled, her eyes full of panic.

Tang Yuxiu glanced at her indifferently, speaking casually, "Oh? Are you his woman?"

Gu Yan realized he was asking her, hurriedly shaking her head, desperately denying, "No, I have nothing to do with him! I don’t know him!"

She looked up expectantly at Tang Yuxiu, her small hand tightly clutching his white shirt, hoping he would believe her.

However, Tang Yuxiu didn’t look at her, saying to President Liu indifferently, "You heard her, she said she’s not."

President Liu wiped the sweat off his forehead, glaring at Gu Yan, "Bitch, dare to lie in front of President Tang! Your mother has already agreed to sell you to me for a million, you are mine now, and you dare to deny it!"

"No, I’m not, and he hasn’t given my mom a million!"

Due to time constraints, President Liu also wanted to see if Gu Yan suited his taste, so he hadn’t immediately signed the million-dollar check.

However, even if he signed it, it was for Mrs. Gu, not for Gu Yan; ultimately, it wouldn’t relate to Gu Yan herself, being just the adopted daughter of a debtor.

"Although I haven’t given it yet, tonight is the inspection, and I’m satisfied now, I’ll give you the money immediately, you come over!"

"No! I won’t go with you! I don’t want the money, get lost!"

"Gu Yan, how can you speak like this?" Gu Qin suddenly spoke, her eyes secretly glancing at Tang Yuxiu, his indifferent demeanor making her heart race.

Gu Qin looked at Gu Yan again, speaking in what she thought was a gentle and charming voice, "Gu Yan, your aunt clearly wanted to introduce a wealthy businessman to you because you wanted money, hoping you could get a million to live well. How can you turn your back now?"

Gu Yan widened her eyes, Gu Qin could lie so blatantly!

President Liu listened to Gu Qin and showed a satisfied smile.

Gu Yan shook her head powerlessly, refuting, "That’s not true, they’re lying!" She looked up at Tang Yuxiu, eyes urgent, "Don’t believe them, that’s not the truth!"

Tang Yuxiu’s eyes, devoid of any emotion, lowered slightly to look at her, his hand holding her shoulder unconsciously tightened.

Gu Yan kept shaking her head, pleading with Tang Yuxiu not to believe their words.

Gu Qin looked at the two of them, a smug look in her eyes, continuing, "Sir, you might not know, but my cousin has been scared of being poor since childhood, so she’s always trying to reach wealthy people, but her standards are high. I’ve already introduced the best businessman I know to her, yet she’s not satisfied. She tortured herself and then ran out; President Liu and I were worried she’d do something outrageous and offend someone, so we were urgently looking for her. We didn’t expect her to bump into you. If there’s any offense, please forgive her."

Gu Yan turned her head incredulously to look at Gu Qin, how could she so confidently speak such fabricated lies?! Every word was false!

"You’re talking nonsense! It was my dad who needed a million for surgery, how can you distort the truth!"
