Chapter 295: Mysterious Item

The staff member handed out the auction booklet to everyone present and introduced the items for auction today.

Inside the lounge, Qiao Xi flipped it open and took a glance. It was mostly jewelry and some famous paintings, ornaments, and musical instruments.

However…

“Why is there another mysterious item here? What exactly is it?” she asked Gu Zheng in confusion.

Gu Zheng swept a glance over and said indifferently, “You’ll know in a bit.”

When he put it that way, the more curious Qiao Xi became.

After a while, she suddenly received a message on her phone. It was from Xue Liang.

“Gu Zheng, Fourth Brother is here too. I’m going to look for him. I’ll be back in a while.”

“Alright.” The man nodded.

Qiao Xi had just left when Gu Zheng said coldly, “Since you’re here, then stop hiding.”

At this moment, someone walked in.

Lu Yan had a smile on the corner of his mouth as he walked in naturally without any awkwardness or restraint. “President Gu, you’re really alert!”

Gu Zheng sneered.

Lu Yan gently said, “Gu Zheng, do you not want to see me so much?”

Gu Zheng lowered his eyes and did not want to care at all. “Even if that’s the case, won’t you still come, Mr. Lu?”

Lu Yan was not angry but smiled indifferently.

The two of them knew very well about the grudge between them. Lu Yan was very glad that his family had paved the way for him back then. Otherwise, he would have to bear the reputation of an illegitimate child for the rest of his life.

Their fates had completely changed. He had become the eldest young master of the Gu family, while Gu Zheng was an illegitimate child.

Lu Yan was calm. “Rumor has it that President Gu is arrogant and doesn’t take anyone seriously. It’s my honor to be someone you hate!

“I know why you don’t want to see me. You’re afraid that I’ll hit on Qiao Xi, right? And your younger brother, Gu Yao. They’re the most important people to you. You don’t want me to get close to them, right?”

Gu Zheng’s eyes were deep.

To be able to say these words so indifferently, Lu Yan’s skin was really thick.

Gu Zheng raised his eyes and glanced at him. Lu Yan looked gentle like jade on the surface, but he was actually a vicious snake.

“Scram!”

Lu Yan’s smile gradually vanished. “Gu Zheng.”

Gu Zheng exuded a murderous aura.

Lu Yan did not expect that even after 20 years of scheming and Gu Zheng becoming an illegitimate child that Gu Zheng would not care at all.

He removed all pretenses. “President Gu, you’re skilled, so you’re naturally not afraid of me. But don’t you want to think about Qiao Xi and Gu Yao?”

Gu Zheng looked at him indifferently. After a long time, he sneered.

“Lu Yan, you don’t have to threaten me. Gu Yao is your younger brother, so you won’t do anything to him. As for Qiao Xi, you don’t dare!”

Lu Yan’s expression darkened.

Gu Zheng said slowly, “Get lost! Don’t make me do it myself!”

Lu Yan was slightly stunned. He did not understand why Gu Zheng was still so arrogant. At this moment, should he not be feeling uneasy in his heart? Should he not be afraid that his inheritance would be taken away by others?
