Chen Man's eyes gradually turned cold. Su Lingzhi's words undoubtedly told everyone that Gu Zhen had the final say in the Gu family. If Chen Man tolerated it, she would be the laughing stock of the entire Jiangcheng.

"Madam Su, you really raised a good daughter." Chen Man said coldly, "She is outspoken and spoiled. You have to discipline her well to prevent her from causing trouble with her words."

Su Wan said softly, "Aunt, my sister has been used to being out in the wild since she was a child. Please forgive her and don't be angry with her."

Chen Man was relieved, "Wanwan is still sensible."

Su Lingzhi sneered. In everyone's eyes, this scene seemed like she was being unreasonable, while Su Wan was considerate and there was a world of difference between them.

Xiang Li also heard Chen Man's threat, and her heart sank. She looked at Su Lingzhi with some disgust, "Su Lingzhi, why don't you apologize to Madam Gu!"

"What am I apologizing for?"

"Su Lingzhi!" Xiang Li said angrily, "You keep saying that I favor Wanwan and don't love you. Look at Wanwan, she's well-behaved and sensible, and then look at you, you're full of hostility. If you continue to be so stubborn, don't set foot in the Su family again. The Su family doesn't want a daughter like you!"

Su Lingzhi asked calmly, "Are you going to sever the mother-daughter relationship with me?"

Xiang Li panicked, Chen Man's pressure made her breathless. Chen Man's meaning was very clear, the Su family only had one daughter, that was Su Wan. She would not allow Su Lingzhi to threaten Su Wan's interests. If Su Lingzhi and Gu Zhen were together, the Su family might turn against them, which Chen Man would never allow.

Xiang Li asked Su Zitian to take Su Lingzhi away because she didn't want things to get out of hand. She would then slowly persuade Su Lingzhi later. Whether it was by coercion, bribery, or playing the emotional card, it was all the Su family's business.

However, Su Lingzhi was rebellious and refused to compromise. That would have been fine, but she actually cut off all her escape routes and brought the matter to the table to sever the mother-daughter relationship!

How could she give birth to such a rebellious daughter!

Su Wan was delighted. If Su Lingzhi severed her relationship with the Su family, she would be the only daughter of the Su family. She tried to comfort Xiang Li anxiously, "Mom, don't get angry and hurt yourself. If you have anything to say, go home and talk about it. Sister, you have caused enough trouble since you came home. Mom is also very tolerant and kind to you. You can't hurt her feelings again and again. Hurry up and admit your mistakes to Mom."

Shen Yunzhu said disdainfully, "Su Wan is really a green tea, adding fuel to the fire!"

"I cut off ties with the Su family, and you are the biggest beneficiary." Su Lingzhi said sarcastically, "Su Wan, you should be more honest. Don't be so hypocritical. It's ugly."

Su Wan's eyes instantly turned red, and she felt extremely aggrieved, "Mom..."

Xiang Li could no longer bear it. "Okay, Su Lingzhi, you have climbed up the social ladder and look down on others. My Su family cannot tolerate a big Buddha like you. From today on, you are no longer a girl of the Su family!"

Su Wan was instantly overjoyed and looked at Su Lingzhi with pride. Su Lingzhi looked at Xiang Li quietly. Was she sad? Not really, because she was not the original owner. She was just a little disappointed. After all... she had once had expectations.

Xu Wanqing and others looked at Su Lingzhi worriedly. It seemed that Su Lingzhi had anticipated this big drama a long time ago, and had foreseen it in the locker room and asked them to add fuel to the fire.

What was she thinking?

Obviously she is a real daughter, but she is cheap to Su Wan.

Xiang Li was extremely panicked, but she had no choice under the coercion of Chen Man. She was also angry at Su Lingzhi for being stubborn and not giving her any way out.

Su Zitian sneered and said, "Su Lingzhi, you regret it now, right? How could you bear to give up your status as the daughter of the Su family? Kneel down and beg your mother, maybe she will..."

"Let's high-five!" Su Lingzhi smiled and stretched out his hand, "It's a deal!"

Xiang Li looked at Su Lingzhi's calm and gentle eyes, her heart aching, "Okay!"

They high-fived as an oath to sever ties, with all the guests in the room as witnesses.

"Isn't it inappropriate for you to bully my people like this?" Gu Zhen's voice came from upstairs, and everyone looked up.

A tall and graceful man stood at the staircase, his face was handsome and noble under the shadow of the lights. He walked down the stairs slowly, elegantly and calmly. Wherever he went, the guests retreated and made way for him. A moment later, Gu Zhen was standing five meters away from Su Lingzhi and stretched out his hand, "Lingzhi, come here!"

Su Lingzhi smiled like a flower, and ran over like a happy lark, holding his hand. The man's palm was warm and dry, and he held her tightly.

"Are you having fun?" Gu Zhen asked.

"Are you happy?" Su Lingzhi asked back. After all, as you wished, I have been deserted by everyone and from now on, I can only be yours.

Gu Zhen tilted his head and looked into the woman's bright and clear eyes, "Not bad!"

"That's good!"

The two of them were playing a game of charades, but Su Wan was so angry that her teeth were itching. She had never seen such gentleness from Gu Zhen before. Gu Jialiang felt even worse. Su Lingzhi was inferior and timid. Even when she was happy, she never smiled so brightly in front of him.

Gu Zhen...why!

"Ah Zhen, after all, this is the Su family's family affair. We are outsiders and it is not appropriate for us to interfere." Madam Gu reminded her, "Su Lingzhi...is no longer the daughter of the Su family."

"She has never cared about being someone's daughter." Gu Zhen said, "What you think is precious is not worth mentioning in her eyes."

"That's right!" Su Lingzhi's mouth was smeared with honey, "You are the most precious in my heart."

She was bold and passionate, totally ignoring the looks of others. Everyone loved to hear her sweet words. Gu Zhen raised a faint smile at the corner of his lips, and the look in his eyes when he looked at her became more gentle and indulgent.

Some people envy it, while others despise it.

Director Gu also came down from upstairs. No one knew what he talked about with Gu Zhen. He looked very unhappy and glared at Gu Zhen fiercely, but Gu Zhen ignored him.

Gu Zhen said calmly, "Madam Su, besides coming to celebrate your birthday tonight, you are here for the Repulse Bay project, right?"

Xiang Li had already discussed the Repulse Bay project with Chen Man, and Chen Man promised her that she would convince Director Gu. Director Gu and his wife had a deep relationship, and for the sake of Gu Jialiang and Su Wan's engagement, they would not condone Gu Zhen's willful behavior.

"Yes!" Xiang Li was also confident. "The Su family has been following up on the project for half a year and is fully prepared. Mr. Gu shouldn't interrupt the cooperation just because of a momentary anger. It will not benefit anyone."

Gu Zhen said, "There are at least six downstream industries of the Gu Group that can take over Repulse Bay. The Su family is not competitive. We chose you because of our in-laws. But Su Zitian said wildly that I am a dog of the Gu family. Dad, Mrs. Gu, am I?"

Everyone, "..."

Is Su Zitian crazy?

Su Zitian never expected that Gu Zhen would say the words that he had used to humiliate him in public. Gu Xinze's face became extremely ugly.

"Gu Zhen is my son!" Gu Xinze said coldly, "Whoever dares to disrespect him in the future will be in trouble with the Gu Group!

"Su Zitian, apologize!" Xiang Li was so angry that she hit Su Zitian so hard that he staggered. Su Zitian didn't dare to do anything rash and was about to apologize.

Gu Zhen raised his hand, "I don't accept it."
