1144 Dont Try To Slander Me

Lu Beichen’s expression changed. He quickly said to Gu Jingze, “Gu Jingze, you did this on purpose!”

While eating, Gu Jingze said airily, “Once you’re done pacifying the engineering people, we’ll discuss in detail.”

“” Lu Beichen exclaimed, “Gu Jingze, is this how you treat your brother-in-law over an engineering company?!”

Gu Jingze looked up plainly. “Without me, you guys wouldn’t be able to run it for more than a month anyway.”

Gu Jingyan was already ignoring Lu Beichen. She only glared at him and said with a firm face, “We’ll talk at home!”

“Hey, I”

Just then, Gu Jingyan saw that Xue Mengqi was sitting down.

She immediately said, “Hey, this is the main table. What’s a distant relative like you doing here?”

Xue Mengqi froze and she looked a little sour.

“I I just Everyone told me to come here.”

A relative at the side saw this and quickly said, “Mengqi was busy preparing for this banquet the past few days. This”

Gu Jingyan frowned and said, “Hey, she insisted on doing it. It’s not like nobody else would do it if she didn’t. If she thinks it’s too tough, she shouldn’t have taken up the job.”

The few relatives’ faces also turned sour.

However, they could not rebut her.

Especially since Gu Jingyan was the direct descendant of the Gu family, nobody could go against her.

It was not the same as going against Lin Che, who was a daughter-in-law. Who knew if Gu Jingze would stop liking her one day in the future? But Gu Jingyan was different. No matter what, she was part of the Gu family by blood.

Xue Mengqi usually never interacted much with Gu Jingyan and they were not close. Looking at the latter now, Gu Jingyan didn’t seem too friendly towards her.

However, Xue Mengqi also did not dare to do anything. She looked around and could only say meekly, “Yes, I was just giving it a try. If I did a bad job, I’d have to seek your forgiveness.”

The relatives watched and all pitied Xue Mengqi.

Seriously, she toiled the whole time. Not only did she do well, but she was also even dissed like this.

Xue Mengqi displayed submission. The people around asked her to go over.

The next table immediately let Xue Mengqi join them, showing their quiet support.

Xue Mengqi sat down obediently. Gu Jingyan turned around to look. She looked angry now and she unapologetically let all her anger out.

“Sister-in-law, what is going on here? Why haven’t you taken the matriarch spot?”

When she said this sentence out loud, it made everyone around them look over.

Xue Mengqi perked her ears up.

Lin Che said, “I’m still pregnant, so I don’t want to think too much for the time being.”
