Chapter 1572: Selfish Man

Guan Jianlin happily watched Gu Zhiqian and Guan Meiyi leave. He was still holding the land document in his hand.

His girlfriend was very puzzled. She didn’t know what the document was. She only knew that Guan Jianlin’s attitude changed immediately when he saw it. So she reached out for the document, but Guan Jianlin refused. “What are you doing?”

Guan Jianlin raised the document high and didn’t let his girlfriend get it.

The woman pouted. “I just want to see what it is. Why did your attitude change so suddenly? Didn’t you say that if Gu Zhiqian didn’t help you get the Gu Corporation’s contract this time, you would never give the household register to Guan Meiyi and wouldn’t agree to their marriage? Why did you change you attitude? Have you changed your mind about working with the Gu family?”

Guan Jianlin glanced at his girlfriend. “What do you know? This Gu Zhiqian is much better than the Gu family.”

“What are you talking about? I don’t understand.” The woman looked at the document again. “What exactly is in this? I heard Gu Zhiqian talk about some land. What kind of land is it?”

Guan Jianlin laughed. “Do you remember the piece of land that I didn’t get because the price was too high?”

The woman thought for a moment. “Oh, you mean the piece of land that was sold to an anonymous person for 18 billion yuan?”

“That’s right.” Guan Jianlin nodded, shaking the document in his hand. “This is it.”

The woman was shocked. “My God, this Gu Zhiqian is so powerful! Isn’t he just an actor?”

Guan Jianlin sighed faintly, “I thought so too, but now it seems that’s not the case. Gu Zhiqian is not simple. When the land was auctioned, the Gu family was also present. Gu Zhiqian was able to get this piece of land under the eyes of the Gu family. It shows that he is more than what he looks.” Guan Jianlin frowned as he analyzed, “And recently, there have been rumors that Gu Zhiqian intends to leave the Gu family. It seems to be true now.”

“If he leaves the Gu family, we won’t be unable to work with the Gu Family, right?” The woman asked.

“Since Gu Zhiqian has the ability to leave the Gu family, why should we work with the Gu family? Think about it. There are so many people in the Gu family. Now Gu Zhilin is the head of the family, but Ruan Zeyan only works with Gu Zhiqian.” Guan Jianlin nodded with a smile, “It shows that they are not simple people!”

“So, you agreed to their marriage? Aren’t you afraid that Guan Meiyi will continue to refuse to acknowledge you as her father after she gets married?” The woman said sarcastically.

“What are you talking about? Meiyi is my daughter. She can’t turn her back on me no matter what. I’m telling you, watch your mouth. Don’t let people hear these words,” Guan Jianlin warned.

The woman pursed her lips. Guan Jianlin was the one who said this back then, but now he forbade her from saying it. “You have no right to scold me. I put in a good word for you today. If I didn’t, how could things go so well today?”

Guan Jianlin smiled and pinched the woman’s chin. “Alright, I know you’re a smart woman. Tell me what you want. I’ll buy it for you.”

The woman thought for a moment. “I want to marry you. I don’t want to be with you like this. Even your daughter is getting married for the second time. When are you going to marry me?”

Hearing this topic was brought up, Guan Jianlin’s expression changed. “I’m not young now. Why should I get married? Isn’t this good? When I die, it won’t stop you from finding another man!”

Guan Jianlin then took the document into the house. The woman followed him with an unperturbed expression.

To put it bluntly, Guan Jianlin was a selfish man. He loved only himself.
