672: Chapter 632 Arrogance_1 672: Chapter 632 Arrogance_1 Zhan Jiaojiao made a shocking statement that left Gu Xiaosang unable to sit still.
“What did you just say?
Even being his concubine would be okay?”
Gu Xiaosang stood up, looking confused at the person in front of her.
As the daughter of the Zhan family, marrying him would be giving him a bargain, wouldn’t it?”
“I’m offering myself in exchange for my grandfather’s health, is there a problem with that?”
Zhan Jiaojiao said righteously, seeming utterly unaware of any issue with her words.
Gu Xiaosang immediately stood with her hands on her hips, angrily retorting, “You’ve got some nerve, saying such things in front of my sister!”
Zhan Jiaojiao casually responded, “Your sister?
What does my business have to do with her?”
Gu Xiaosang fumed, “Of course it does, my sister is Lu Chuan’s fiancée!
Tell me it doesn’t matter!”
Upon hearing this, Zhan Jiaojiao quickly turned her head to Gu Xiaorou, “You two…
are already engaged?”
Gu Xiaorou responded indifferently, “That’s right, we’ve been engaged for a while now.
Do you have a problem with that?”
“No, but, it’s just an engagement, whether it will lead to marriage is not certain yet.”
Finishing her sentence, she smirked, clearly cursing Gu Xiaorou.
Gu Xiaosang, naturally not pleased, shouted furiously, “What did you say?
You scoundrel, you’re up to no good!”
Zhan Jiaojiao rebuked, “How am I up to no good?
I’m only stating the truth.
Can you predict the future for certain?”
“I’m not completely without a chance, at least, I’m more open-minded than your sister, I still have an advantage.”
She believed her own figure and appearance weren’t bad and, though not quite on par with Gu Xiaorou, she could see at a glance that Gu Xiaorou was the sheltered kind of girl.
These prim and proper girls often struggle to keep their men.
Seeing her so smug, Gu Xiaosang didn’t bother to argue further and turned directly to Lu Chuan, saying, “Young Master Lu, aren’t you going to take a stand?”
Lu Chuan quickly stood up, glancing at Gu Xiaosang, “Don’t be hasty, this isn’t such a big deal.”
Then, looking at Zhan Jiaojiao, he said, “Stop talking nonsense.
I don’t care about any of the conditions you just mentioned.”
“Right, let me make it clear to you, your coming here is pointless, have Zhan Tianheng come see me in person!”
Zhan Jiaojiao crossed her arms, looking at Lu Chuan with disdain, “He’s busy right now, and isn’t my apology enough for you?
Don’t you know what position my uncle holds in Dubhe City?
There’s no one in the entire city who would dare to demand an apology from him!”
“So, me apologizing to you is basically our Zhan family giving you a way out, understand?”
She spoke with a hint of pride, clearly emboldened by the powerful backing of the Zhan family, allowing her to face Lu Chuan without fear.
Lu Chuan, however, ran out of patience to waste time with her and glared at Zhan Jiaojiao, “Tell Zhan Tianheng to come to me.
If he dares not to come, then let him watch his own father die!”
Zhan Jiaojiao was startled by Lu Chuan’s words, stepping back several paces, pointing at Lu Chuan with a look of surprise.
you just said to have my uncle ‘come over’?
Have you lost your mind?”
“That’s right, I want Zhan Tianheng to come to me.
I was only too lazy to deal with that guy before, but now, you dare to provoke me !”
“Now, let him come to me, and I’ll be sure to give him the lesson he deserves!”
Zhan Jiaojiao was so scared that she was frozen on the spot, at a loss for words for a moment.
Lu Chuan’s words even shattered her inherent perceptions.
In her eyes, Uncle Zhan Tianheng’s status in Dubhe City was supremely exalted.
No one dared to offend him, and all the bigwigs had to greet him respectfully.
Such a top-tier person was now being arrogantly challenged by a young upstart who wanted to teach him a lesson—this was just too outrageous!
Do you believe that if I relay your words to my uncle, your life will be over?”
Lu Chuan glared at her, “At this point, you still dare to be arrogant in front of me?
You messed everything up, and still, you act as if you’re proud of yourself.
I think you’re just asking for death!”
you can’t appreciate kindness.
I came all the way here to apologize to you, and instead of being grateful, you dare to be so confrontational.”
“We are of the same generation.
There’s nothing wrong with me apologizing to you.
You’re just taking an inch and wanting a mile!”
In Zhan Jiaojiao’s eyes, she had already made the greatest concession possible.
But to her, Lu Chuan was pressing aggressively and relentlessly, appearing completely unreasonable in her view.
Lu Chuan was so irritated by this woman that he felt the urge to punch someone.
Gu Xiaorou quickly stood up, came to Lu Chuan’s side, and soothed, “Don’t stoop to her level, just let her be.”
“I don’t want to stoop to her level, but this damn fool is too disgusting.
Go fetch Zhan Tianheng for me, I want to have a word with him!”
Lu Chuan was utterly speechless.
This Zhan Jiaojiao was clearly a spoiled young mistress with poor judgment of many things, always assuming she was the superior party.
However, Lu Chuan felt that Zhan Tianheng probably wasn’t much better.
But they still needed a lesson, otherwise, he really couldn’t stand the Zhan family any longer.
Zhan Jiaojiao turned and walked out of the courtyard.
As she left, she dropped a sentence, “Wait till I bring my uncle here, things will get serious then.
I hope you can withstand it!”
After speaking, she walked out.
Lu Chuan couldn’t help but laugh wryly, “What a lunatic, are there any normal people in the Zhan family?
It seems only Zhan Tianyu is somewhat sane, the others are just too arrogant.”
Gu Xiaorou comforted him, “That’s a common problem of big families.
Arrogance is inevitable.
Many from the smaller clans are incredibly haughty, let alone those from top-tier families.”
“I’m afraid when Zhan Tianheng arrives later, there’ll be no escaping another quarrel.”
Lu Chuan snorted coldly, “If Zhan Tianheng dares to argue with me, his father will surely die tonight!”
Soon, the hurried footsteps of Zhan Tianheng could be heard approaching.
He looked at Lu Chuan, immediately his face turned dark and ashen, looking very unpleasant.
He walked towards Lu Chuan, forcing a smile on his face.
Seeing this, Lu Chuan knew that this man was more sensible than Zhan Jiaojiao had just been.
“Young Master Lu, Zhan Jiaojiao just visited and failed to show restraint, disturbing you all, for which I am truly sorry.”
“I have come to request that you treat my father’s illness.
He is bedridden and might not survive the night.
My younger brother said you have the art of healing miracles.
I hope you can lend your help.”
“I might consider helping if you make a sincere apology,” Lu Chuan replied.
Zhan Tianheng was slightly startled, then asked, “How would you like me to apologize?”
“I don’t care who you are or what status you hold, right now, get on your knees and apologize!”
