Chapter 576 - 576: Exchange for Benefits

Gong Luo looked at the caller ID on his phone and rejected it. Then, he sent a message to Yue Han and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Yue Han replied, “I want to explain to you about my brother and your cousin’s marriage.”

The corners of Gong Luo’s lips curled up. He picked up his phone and entered the side room beside the study before calling Yue Han back.

Gong Ze’s personality gave the couple a headache. Hence, Gong Hua looked at his father tentatively and said, “Dad, the Yue Family is indeed a little too much. Once we really get married to the Yue Family, we’ll probably be laughed at by the other families in the future. Why don’t we forget about this marriage and stop interacting with them?”

When Gong Ze heard his father speak, his eyes instantly lit up. Even Gong Han, who was eavesdropping at the door, was nervous.

She didn’t want to be with that rascal, Yue Chi, but during this period of time, she had been forced by her parents to contact Yue Chi. She was already extremely annoyed.

Now that she heard her father fight for her, she naturally had some hope.

Gong Yi’s white beard curled as he breathed. The room was silent as everyone waited for the Old Master’s decision.

At this moment, Gong Luo opened the side door again and came out. He smiled at Gong Yi and said, ‘Grandpa, the Yue Family said that in order to show their sincerity in the marriage, they’re willing to give half of the two large projects in their hands to our Gong Family in advance. Do you think we should accept them?”

When Gong Yi, who was already a little shaken, heard Gong Luo’s words, he pondered for a moment and said, “The Yue Family is not bad. Find a time to quickly settle Gong Han’s marriage. It’s fine to get engaged. She’s already 25 years old. She’s not young anymore.”

Gong Yi’s words almost immediately settled this matter.

Gong Ze’s eyes turned red from anger almost instantly. He looked at his grandfather in disbelief. Then, he turned his pleading gaze to his parents, only to see his parents’ lowered eyes.

Gong Ze sneered. “Well! Very well! Let me tell you, unless I die, there’s no way!”

As Gong Ze spoke, he rushed out of the study. When he turned around and saw Gong Han leaning against the wall, Gong Ze was shocked. He immediately went forward and looked at Gong Han worriedly. He said helplessly, “Sister? Are you alright?”

Gong Han’s eyes were slightly red. She didn’t cry, but she gave Gong Ze an ugly smile. “Ah Ze, you’re back? Go down with me to drink soup. I even made your favorite dessert for you. I was waiting for you to come back.”

Gong Ze looked at Gong Han suppressing her emotions and did not dare to continue the topic of the marriage with the Yue Family. He only nodded and said, “Okay!”

Then, he followed Gong Han downstairs.

Gong Han restrained her emotions very quickly and returned to her usual docile appearance the moment they went downstairs. When she reached the kitchen and brought out desserts to place in front of Gong Ze, there was already a gentle smile on her lips. She said, “Come, try it. I put a lot of mangoes in it. It’s your favorite, mango.”

Gong Han’s eyes were gentle and filled with doting love for her brother. However, the sadness hidden in her eyes would still be revealed inadvertently.

The dessert that Gong Ze usually liked to eat was bitter now and difficult to swallow.

He knew that his sister was about to enter a tiger’s den, but he could not do anything.

Actually, Gong Ze did not understand. The Gong Family did not lack money. Why did they have to sell his sister for benefits?

Could a bad marriage really maintain the relationship between the two families?

In Gong Ze’s opinion, this was nonsense!

A useless and good -for-nothing second son of the Yue Family and a daughter who was not fancied by the Gong Family. What good could come out of them getting together?

It was nothing more than the current benefits sent by the Yue Family that Gong Luo and his grandfather liked, such as those two projects.

Gong Ze looked at his sister, who was pretending to be relieved and indifferent, and his heart ached.

In the past, he had thought that as long as the family was happy, they would be happy, so he had never cared that his grandfather let his second uncle take over. After all, his father was indeed not very capable and his ears were soft.

Her mother was not like her Second Aunt, who was swift and decisive. Instead, she was indecisive and virtuous..
