"President Gu, I'm telling the truth. Our Zhong family has no intention of offending Mrs. Gu. It was planned by the Qiao family. Today's banquet was all their idea!"
Gu Zheng's cold gaze landed on Old Madam Qiao.
Old Madam Qiao was terrified to the point her entire body trembled. She hurriedly retorted, "Nonsense! You took a liking to Qiao Xi and even lied to us, saying that Qiao Xi had a very good impression of Young Master Zhong. That's why our Qiao family agreed to it. We only asked for a sum of money from your Zhong family for the sake of protecting Qiao Xi!"
Her voice trembled as she was afraid of offending Gu Zheng.
"President Gu, you have to believe us!"
If President Gu believed them, he would definitely suspect that Qiao Xi was secretly in contact with Zhong Ming because of money. How could the dignified head of the Gu family tolerate his woman having an affair? He might just kick her away!
