Chapter 14 - You Married a Woman Whose Appearance Differs From Her Personality

When the red sports car stopped at the nearest subway station, the people around couldn't help but look at it.

The streets of the imperial capital were filled with many wealthy second generations. However, they rarely appeared in such places.

Especially not a sports car like this.

Some people couldn't resist and took some pictures with their mobile phones. When Tang Chi got out of the car, Gu Linye shouted from behind, "Tang Chi, just you wait, sooner or later I'll let my brother see your true colors."

Tang Chi couldn't contain it anymore, so she turned around and scolded him, "Idiot!"

He was way worse than a meddlesome aunt.

Gu Linye: "...!!"

Gu Linye was furious of course. However, since Tang Chi headed straight to the subway station after scolding him, there was no way he could have gotten down from the car just to chase after her to beat her up; there were even people taking pictures around. Instead, he vented his frustrations at the people walking around. "What the hell are you taking pictures for? You've never seen a sports car before?"

After saying this, he stepped on the gas and drove out at a dangerous speed.

Tang Chi wanted to beat up Gu Linye, however, she knew that now wasn't the time to do it. After all, she just married into the family.

[TL Note: In Chinese culture, the female will marry into the male's family and stay there and become part of the family unit. This is in contrast to the western world where the common practice is to leave the parents' home and start a family unit on their own.]

What was surprising was that she didn't expect that Gu Linye would rush to the company to complain right away.

***

The more Gu Linye thought about what happened earlier; him being scolded by Tang Chi, the more furious he was. Especially today, several things happened that aggravated him and it was all because of Tang Chi.

He was the second young master of the Gu family. He had never experienced such humiliation before!

After thinking about it now, he knew only Gu Linzheng could deal with Tang Chi!

Gu Linye missed his appointment and went directly to the Gu Group headquarters to complain about just happened.

Both Gu Linzheng and Gu Hengxiao had to work overtime tonight. There was an important meeting tonight and they were still discussing in the office room. After Gu Linye clarified the situation, he rushed into their office.

Gu Linzheng was sitting down while listening to his father's secretary giving the latest report on the new season's product. He sat on the office chair while looking deep and calm, seemingly unperturbed; no one knew what he was thinking.

Gu Linzheng looked cold and distant like the moon, this gave people a sense of alienation. Even though he was only twenty-six years old, he was able to sit in this position. The board of directors was convinced that he had more promise than his grandfather, Gu Tianhe, back in the days. When faced with any group matters, he was sharp and decisive. It was all chalked because of the potential he displayed, however, Gu Linye, on the other hand, was declared to be the useless, good-for-nothing son.

"You're already married. Don't be so fierce-looking, your wife wouldn't like it."

During the gap between the report, Gu Hengxiao looked at Gu Linzheng and laughed out. The secretary stopped and didn't continue reporting.

Gu Linzheng was startled. He didn't expect that his Father to suddenly bring this matter up. He furrowed his brows slightly and said coldly, "Dad, we're talking business now."

Gu Hengxiao paid no heed to what he said. He was the CEO of the Gu Group, however, once people compared him and Gu Linzheng, he was much more refined and gentle than the latter.

Gu Hengxiao took a sip of tea and said, "Xiao Chi should be back to school by now, don't you want to give her a call to check on her?"

Gu Linzheng: "..."

Gu Linzheng's eyes became darker, it was almost pitch-black, like ink. He looked at the table and slowly reached out toward his phone with his slender fingers.

Gu Hengxiao looked at what he was doing and smiled even deeper.

The secretary next to him looked slightly surprised.

This was the first time she saw Gu Linzheng do something private when talking about business.

After around three seconds of silence, Gu Linzheng unlocked his phone with his fingerprint. The moment the phone screen lit up, the office door was kicked wide open and an angry voice rang out, "Brother! Tang Chi scolded me! She scolded me! You married a woman whose appearance differs from her personality!"
