At the Song residence, Song Kai was receiving a reprimand, while Gu Zhuo was also facing the wrath of his father.

“I sent someone to pick you up at the airport, but I didn’t even see a trace of you. What were you thinking after you got off the plane? Why didn’t you come straight home and instead went to watch a motorcycle racing?” Gu Hai scolded angrily.

One of the directors who accompanied Gu Hai tried to mediate, saying, “It’s understandable that children can be a bit playful when they’re still young.

They’ll become more sensible as they grow up.”

However, Gu Hai paid no heed to his attempt at reasoning. He sat in the living room with a few directors, waiting all day, but Gu Zhuo didn’t return. This made him feel utterly embarrassed.

Gu Zhuo, on the other hand, remained unfazed by the scolding. To someone with such character, verbal rebukes were of little consequence. After all, he had already watched the entire competition and felt that he deserved the scolding. Upon seeing his son’s stubborn demeanor, Gu Hai became so frustrated that he wanted to lash out.

Director Zhang quickly intervened, advising, “If the child isn’t listening, you should try teaching him differently. Besides, we called him back for a reason. How can he go out if you punish him like this?”

Gu Hai then recalled his main purpose and stated, “I didn’t intend to call you back while you were abroad. but there’s something Ineed vou to do here ”

“Which wealthy girl do you want me to marry now?” Gu Zhuo quipped, displaying his self-deprecating humor. “I don’t have much else to offer, I suppose.”

Gu Hai took a deep breath and replied, “It’s easy for you to say. With your current attitude, which wealthy young lady would be interested in you? You need to change that hooligan image of yours.”

Gu Zhuo remained standing there, seemingly unfazed. His nonchalant expression was enough to infuriate anyone.

Gu Hai took a moment to compose himself and continued, “I have someone in mind for you to marry—the second daughter of the Song Family, Song Yin. She’s beautiful, academically accomplished, skilled in piano, and has a gentle and generous personality. Everyone who has met her praises her. I want her to become a part of our family.”

Gu Zhuo simply nodded, responding, “If you want to remarry, I’ll support you. You don’t have to consider my feelings.”

This statement sent Gu Hai into a fit of rage. He grabbed the apples and bananas from the table and hurled them toward Gu Zhuo. However, Gu Zhuo deftly dodged the incoming fruit projectiles and collected them off the floor. Gu Hai shouted, “I want you to pursue Song Yin! What nonsense are you talking about?”

Gu Zhuo understood his father’s intent perfectly well, but he was accustomed to feigning ignorance to avoid difficult conversations. To him, Song Yin was just a stranger, and he had no intention of pursuing her just because his father told him to.

Director Zhang advised Gu Zhuo not to be stubborn at this time. “The eldest daughter of the Song Family was already pregnant with Gu Chen’s child, and the wedding was likely to take place soon. With the Song Family’s support, the directors who were watching were likely to side with Gu Chen. It would be challenging for your father to compete for the position of chairman.”

Gu Zhuo responded with nonchalance, “Our family is financially stable, and even if he didn’t become chairman, it wouldn’t matter. There’s no need for a fierce competition.”

Gu Hai was on the verge of sending his son far away to prevent himself from being driven to madness. He sighed in exasperation and explained, “If I fail in this competition, Gu Chen will certainly find ways to push me out of the company. By then, I’ll only be able to collect dividends each year and retire at home.”

Gu Zhuo smiled and remarked, “Isn’t that quite good?”

Gu Hails frustration reached its peak, and he threw the fruit platter in anger. He was truly exasperated by his son’s behavior.

“I want you to pursue Song Yin, or I’ll cut off all your financial support,” Gu Hai threatened.

This was a serious matter for Gu Zhuo. Without financial support, he couldn’t indulge in his hobbies. He had just taken a fancy to a new motorcycle.

“I’ll pursue Miss Song Yin diligently,” Gu Zhuo assured.

Director Zhang made a suggestion, saying, “I remember that Xiao Zhuo is in high school. Why don’t we enroll him in Eke High School for a few days to attend classes? It’ll provide him with a great opportunity to get to know Song Yin better. Otherwise, he won’t have many chances to interact with her.”

“Alright,” Gu Hai agreed wholeheartedly, believing that the school would offer numerous opportunities for contact.

Gu Zhuo clarified, “I’m not in high school anymore; I’m already in my senior year.”

Nonetheless, he paid little attention to his words. After all, he was only going to school to get closer to Song Yin. Whether he was in high school or not didn’t matter to him.

After a unanimous vote, Gu Zhuo was enrolled in Eke High School, and even placed in the same class as Song Yin.

However, Gu Zhuo had a rebellious personality and had no intention of conforming to expectations. He believed that his father wouldn’t come to monitor him closely to see if he was pursuing Song Yin.

With this mindset, Gu Zhuo arrived at school the next day. Due to oversleeping, he was one of the last students to arrive. As he reluctantly stepped out of the car and walked through the corridor, he unexpectedly crossed paths with Song Fan, who was also on her way to class.

He expressed his surprise, saying, “Sister, you’re in this school as well?”
