Chapter 180 Lu Zhi Begins to Fool Her Again

180  Lu Zhi Begins to Fool Her Again

Jiang Yining didn't want to continue the topic of nicknames. She took a few deep breaths before she calmed down and asked, "Why are we going to the old mansion for dinner?"

"Gu Zhanqing will go to the old mansion tonight to discuss the betrothal gifts with my grandfather. The whole family will be there."

Although Lu Zhi did not like Gu Zhanqing, the marriage still had to be handled by the guardians of both parties.

Yining's parents were already dead, and the only elder in the family was Gu Zhanqing.

He could only tolerate him for the time being.

"I see." When Jiang Yining mentioned Gu Zhanqing, her expression became much more indifferent. "Then let's go."

Lu Zhi pulled out a hand and held her small hand.

"Don't be afraid. With me around, he won't dare to do anything to you."

"Okay."

Jiang Yining felt the heat coming from his palm, and her face turned slightly red.

But she did not struggle.

...

Lu Zhi brought Jiang Yining home before they went to the old mansion. After all, it was the day of the betrothal gifts, so it had to be more solemn. This time, he didn't let her choose clothes. Instead, he let her change into a red off-shoulder dress and the accessories that complemented the dress.

Her skin was very fair, and her figure was slim and curvy.

Coupled with her fair swan neck and charming collarbone, she looked stunning after wearing it.

It was hard to look away.

However, Jiang Yining didn't like such bright colors. After putting it on, she said uncomfortably, "Doesn't it look too mature?"

"You're already twenty years old, not thirteen or fourteen. It's better to be more mature."

Lu Zhi was very satisfied.

Every time she wore a school uniform, he would stand in front of her and feel like a strange uncle trying to trick a child.

At this moment, she was very compatible with him.

Well, at least that was what he thought.

Lu Zhi didn't give her time to change her clothes. He pulled her by the arm and went out.

Jiang Yining was wearing a pair of eight-centimeter high heels. She staggered slightly and caught up with him.

...

The two of them returned to the Lu family's old mansion.

When everyone saw Jiang Yining, their eyes were filled with amazement.

When they stood in front of Gu Zhanqing, his gaze fell on Jiang Yining and he was slightly stunned.

The way she looked now... It reminded him of Gu Mian, her mother.

However, he was only absent-minded for a moment. Gu Zhanqing quickly returned to normal. With a smile on his face, he said, "You've really grown up."

"Yeah, do you feel regretful?"

It was a pity that she was no longer weak and was no longer bullied by him.

Jiang Yining sneered.

Gu Zhanqing knew the meaning behind her words and said calmly, "Don't joke around in front of so many elders. They will take it seriously. I'm happier than anyone that you can grow up healthily, get married, and have children."

Jiang Yining's lips curled into a fake smile as she coldly watched him put on an act.

The rest of the Lu family already knew that Jiang Yining was Gu Zhanqing's niece and that she had been raised by him after her parents passed away.

Naturally, they couldn't hear that their words were laced with poison.

Someone else chimed in foolishly, "Your relationship is really good."

"Yes." Gu Zhanqing said shamelessly, "Yining has relied on me the most since she was young."

Jiang Yining wanted to slap him.

She wanted to wake him up.

However, when she saw the Lu family members around her, she still endured it.

Old Master Lu waited for everyone to arrive before handing the list of betrothal gifts to Gu Zhanqing. He said, "This is the betrothal gift prepared by our Lu family. Zhanqing, see if there's anything else you want to add. As long as our family has it, we will satisfy your requests."

Gu Zhanqing opened the list. It was about one meter long, and it was densely packed with priceless items.

Any one of them was enough to let an ordinary family live a wealthy life.

It seemed that the Lu family really thought highly of Yining.

Unfortunately, he did not agree to this marriage. No matter how good the betrothal gift was, it would be useless.

Gu Zhanqing looked at it absent-mindedly. He was about to close the list when he inadvertently skimmed through one of the items.

'- Giving 8% of the Lu Corporation's shares to Yining.'

His gaze could not help but be fixed on that sentence.

He was extremely shocked. The Lu Corporation was the foundation of the Lu family. It was even more difficult to get a share of the profits than to ascend to the heavens. Many of the descendants of the Lu family could only get less than 0.1% of the Lu Corporation's shares in their lifetime.

He did not expect the Lu family to actually prepare a full 8% of the shares for Yining!

This meant that she would have a considerable say in the Lu Corporation!

From the moment Gu Zhanqing met Lu Zhi, he knew that he thought highly of Yining.

However, he never expected her to be so important to him!

Old Master Lu saw his strange expression and asked, "What's wrong? Are you not satisfied with the betrothal gift?"

"No, Elder Lu, you're generous enough to give 8% of your shares to our Yining. How can I not be satisfied? However, I feel that Yining is still young. This betrothal gift is too expensive and will ruin her happiness if she accepts such a huge gift. Old Master Lu might as well consider removing the shares from the details of the betrothal gifts. It's enough to prepare the rest."

Gu Zhanqing didn't want Jiang Yining to be too involved with the Lu family.

Although this 8% of the Lu Corporation's shares was very tempting, he did not intend to take it.

And what he said set off a huge storm in the entire Lu family.

Previously, the old master did not reveal to them what betrothal gifts he had given them.

Therefore, they thought it was just some money.

However, when they heard that there was actually 8% of the Lu Corporation's shares, everyone was as if they had exploded.

They started discussing heatedly.

so that I can take over the Lu Corporation in the future. But it's not good to give it to me directly. He 09:54

can only use this marriage to transfer it to you. What's yours is mine. Wouldn't that achieve his goal?"

Jiang Yining was also stunned. She looked at Lu Zhi and asked him what he meant.

"I'll tell you later." Lu Zhi said calmly.

His calm demeanor made Jiang Yining feel that the shares worth hundreds of billions were as simple as a bowl of rice in his eyes.

Jiang Yining was full of questions.

However, she still listened to Lu Zhi's words and waited quietly.

Old Master Lu heard the chaotic voices of the others and slammed the table lightly. He said, "I decided to give the shares to Yining. If anyone has any objections, you can stand up."

He was the absolute authority of the Lu family. Who dared to say no?

No one dared to step forward.

Old Master Lu waited for everyone to quiet down before he said to Gu Zhanqing unhurriedly, "8% of the shares are not considered valuable. In our opinion, Yining is far more precious than these shares. Therefore, there is no need to say whether this is too expensive of a gift for her. If Zhanqing doesn't have any other opinions, then let's settle it like this."

The Lu family had already said so.

Gu Zhanqing did not have the nerve to refute. He said, "I'll listen to your arrangements."

"Alright."

Old Master Lu said to the housekeeper, "When you've prepared everything on this list, send it to the Gu family in the capital city."

"Yes, sir."

The butler nodded slightly and respectfully received the order.

"Alright, the betrothal gifts are set. Next is the wedding. However, we can slowly talk about this later. Let's eat first." Old Master Lu stood up and called everyone to the dining room.

Jiang Yining deliberately took a few steps behind everyone and pulled Lu Zhi to ask, "What's with the shares?"

She didn't dare to accept such an expensive item.

Lu Zhi had already guessed that she was not that easy to fool.

He told the lie that he had made up in advance. He replied, "Grandpa wants me to have more shares so that I can take over the Lu Corporation in the future. But it's not good to give it to me directly. He can only use this marriage to transfer it to you. What's yours is mine. Wouldn't that achieve his goal?"

"Why are you so generous? Aren't you afraid that I'll run away after getting the shares?"

That was a full 8% of the shares!

It was worth hundreds of billions!

Anyone else would be tempted, alright?

Jiang Yining held her forehead.

"I believe in your character," Lu Zhi said calmly.
