"Aunt Zhu, I hope there won't be a next time, otherwise we can forget about doing business with the Star Luo Empire."
Gu Wuchen exuded an imposing aura. Although his words were calm, they were sharp and cutting. As the matriarch of the Zhu Family, she dared not cause the business with the Gu Clan to be severed because of her.
The elders and middle-level managers of the two families collectively put pressure on them, as if they were in a cooperative relationship.
Perhaps in their subconscious, the Star Luo Empire was inherently stronger than the Heaven Dou Empire.
Therefore, they deserve more benefits for development.
But they forgot that the final product pricing was decided by Gu Wuchen alone. If that were the case, the entire Star Luo Empire's business would be impossible to continue.
Dai Tianheng immediately stood up and bowed ninety degrees to Gu Wuchen:
"This matter was due to my negligence; please forgive me, Young Master Gu."
Seeing that the two men's apologies were fairly sincere, Gu Wuchen did not continue to make things difficult for them.
"Young master, young lady, please stop here. You are not allowed to enter."
"The patriarch and the others are still inside discussing business."
The chattering outside the door caught Gu Wuchen's attention. "Young Master and Miss?"
Without a doubt, it must be Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing.
But what brings these people here?
Suddenly, the sound mixed with footsteps grew closer and closer, until the four rushed into the courtyard, where the scene before them left them frozen in place.
The door to the villa was suddenly pushed open, and four figures rushed in, ignoring the guards' attempts to stop them.
Leading the group was Dai Weisi, the eldest son of the Dai Family. He was tall, with striking blond hair, and his sharp outfit exuded the arrogance of a royal.
Beside him Dai Mubai, with blond hair, a messy forehead, and arrogant eyes. He had lost some of his fierceness and gained more of the impetuousness of a young man.
Following closely behind were the Zhu Family sisters.
Walking in front was Zhu Zhuyun, the eldest daughter of the Zhu Family, who was about ten years old. She wore a dark purple dress, her black hair was tied up high, and her eyebrows and eyes were exquisite and cold. The corners of her eyes were slightly upturned, giving her a natural sharpness and arrogance. Her steps were full of the calm aura of the eldest daughter of the Zhu Family family.
Hiding beside her was Zhu Zhuqing, the second young lady of the Zhu Family, who looked to be only seven or eight years old. She was dressed in a neat black outfit, and her dark hair was tied into a high ponytail, swaying gently with her movements.
Her features were as delicate as a porcelain doll's, and her almond-shaped eyes were as clear as a cold pool. Although her face still had a childlike innocence, she kept her lips tightly pressed together, revealing a cold and resilient strength that was inconsistent with her age. Her eyes were full of vigilance and curiosity.
The four people who rushed in stopped abruptly when they saw the scene in the living room, and they stood there stunned.
They were used to seeing Dai Tianheng and Zhu Qingyan wield great power in their families, and even when facing the emperor of the Star Luo Empire, the two never lost their confidence.
But at this moment, these two family heads, whose mere presence in Star Luo City could shake the city, were bowing deeply to a boy who looked no more than seven or eight years old, their posture extremely humble, their tone full of flattery and apology.
Dai Weisi's arrogance froze instantly, his brows furrowed sharply, and he was about to speak when Dai Tianheng glared at him coldly, forcing him to swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
Zhu Qingyan instantly dropped her polite demeanor, adopting her usual stern expression, and said in a deep voice:
"Who let you in? No manners! Get out now!"
Gu Wuchen raised his hand. "Aunt Zhu, don't get agitated. Since the four of you have defied all the obstacles and barged in here, there must be something you need, right?"
"I'm a very good listener, so let me hear what the four young masters and ladies have to complain about?"
Dai Tianheng and Zhu Qingyan's hearts skipped a beat.
What's there to listen to?
They all know what kind of personality their children have.
Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were filled with amazement at Gu Wuchen, far more so than what Dai Weisi and Dai Mubai had asked for.
With sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, he was as handsome as a jade tree in the wind.
Dressed in flowing white robes, she resembled a celestial being descended to earth.
Dai Weisi and Dai Mubai both noticed the looks in the two women's eyes. Dai Weisi knew this wasn't the time to lose his temper, but Dai Mubai was different.
Having been pampered all his life, how could he allow his fiancée to look at another man like that?
"Father, why are you so servile? And Zhu Zhuqing, why are you looking at him? Is he as handsome as me?"
Dai Mubai angrily.
Dai Mubai appeared very dissatisfied.
Upon hearing this, Dai Weisi frowned slightly, looking at his younger brother, " Mubai."
Dai Weisi did offer a slight reminder, but Dai Mubai completely ignored him.
"Brother, look at how cowardly you are, you're not even as good as me." Dai Mubai sneered.
Dai Weisi's face was extremely ugly: Dai Mubai usually indulged in debauchery and did nothing, so who could he blame for not being good enough?
Dai Weisi wouldn't have given such a reminder if it weren't for their brotherhood.
Dai Mubai's words had hit the nail on the head.
Dai Tianheng was extremely embarrassed. He had just reached an agreement with the young master of the Gu Clan, only to find that his son had dug a hole for him.
" Young Master Gu, I..."
Dai Tianheng wanted to offer another explanation.
Gu Wuchen smiled at Dai Tianheng, "It's alright. Since he's the son of the Dai Family head, I'd like to hear his thoughts and insights."
Dai Tianheng paused, but since things had come to this point, he could only remain silent.
" Dai Mubai, right? Tell me, what are your complaints?" Gu Wuchen asked.
Upon seeing the other party's attitude, Dai Mubai immediately began to complain, "You are the Gu Clan, while our Dai Family is royalty. You should give our Dai Family more supplies."
"What makes the mere Heaven Dou Empire think it can compete with our Star Luo Empire? If it weren't for some special reasons, the Star Luo Empire would have already annexed the Heaven Dou Empire."
"Besides, how can you, a junior, embarrass your elders like this? Don't you have any manners at all?"
Dai Mubai's words were all to the point, but they also filled Dai Tian Heng with fear, who was afraid that if Gu Cheng were displeased, he would sever all cooperation with the Dai Family.
If the Dai Family's share is given to the Zhu Family, then the Zhu Family will have a certain say in Star Luo City.
Upon hearing this, Gu Wuchen almost laughed, but calmly stood up. " Dai Mubai, do you know the rules of our Gu Clan? Besides, I didn't ask the two family heads to bow like this; it was their own choice."
"So what? Besides, you seduced my fiancée and my older brother's fiancée, that's a fact."
Dai Mubai would never allow his woman to have eyes for someone else.
Dai Tianheng's face had turned completely dark.
Gu Wuchen really wanted to Dai Mubai. What courage did he have to speak like that? He couldn't see that Dai Tianheng's face had turned completely dark.
" Dai Mubai, it's none of your business what we do."
Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun stepped forward at the same time.
It was rare for the two sisters to agree, especially since they rarely interacted with other women.
Why can they flirt with other women, but I can't appreciate more outstanding men?
That's so unfair.
Dai Mubai snorted coldly, "Who told you you were my and my older brother's fiancées?"
Zhu Zhuqing couldn't stand it anymore and pointed at Dai Mubai's nose. "What are you pretending for? Dai Mubai, don't think I don't know about your debauchery in Star Luo City. You're disgusting right now."
