After the universally disliked young master is reborn, the older sisters panic.

Chen Hao, with a stern face, warned, "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."

A person with a dirty heart sees everything as dirty.

Chen Qian, emboldened by Jiang Lingling's presence, said, "Why can't I say it? I didn't say anything wrong."

He turned to look at Lu Jiaqi, seeking her approval, "Right? Miss Lu? Don't you like my brother?"

With her thoughts exposed in public, Lu Jiaqi blushed. She lowered her head, stammering for a long time without uttering a word.

No matter what answer you give, it's not appropriate.

She likes Chen Hao, and she doesn't want to deny it, but she won't admit it either.

Seeing this, Chen Hao sighed and then said sternly to Chen Qian, "Chen Qian, Miss Lu and I are completely innocent. Don't talk nonsense."

But how are things between you and Shen Luxue?

Isn't she making a scene about wanting to marry you?

How did you end up engaged to Jiang Lingling?

Shen Luxue stood up for Chen Qian back then and caused him trouble several times, so why has she disappeared recently?

"You're talking nonsense! There's nothing between me and Shen Luxue!" Chen Qian shouted in a panic.

He absolutely must not let Jiang Lingling know about what happened between him and Shen Luxue, otherwise he will lose an ally.

Only Jiang Lingling can propose to dissolve the engagement; he cannot propose it first.

"You're just getting angry out of embarrassment," Chen Haoyun replied nonchalantly.

"You're the one who's getting angry out of spite! You're heartless and ungrateful!" Chen Qian shouted through gritted teeth.

He absolutely refuses to admit it!

Gu Xingzhou, who went to the same school as him, also knew about this. He laughed and said, "Chen Qian, don't bother explaining. We're from the same school, and we know everything about you."

At this moment, Jiang Lingling also came to her senses. She glared at Chen Qian and loudly questioned, "Who is Shen Luxue?!"

What is your relationship?

Brother Qian belongs to her, and no one can take him away from her.

Chen Qian shook his head vigorously, "Lingling, listen to me, Shen Luxue and I are just ordinary classmates."

Moreover, she was the one who pestered me and publicly proclaimed that I was her girlfriend.

I have been framed.

Seeing Jiang Lingling's seemingly disbelieving look, Chen Qian reached up and touched the corner of his eye, asking with a wronged expression, "Lingling, don't you believe me?"

Seeing Chen Qian wiping away his tears, Jiang Lingling's heart softened. She reached out and hugged Chen Qian, gently comforting him, "I believe you. I believe everything you say."

Chen Qian, petite and charming, nestled into Jiang Lingling's arms; everyone witnessed this scene.

With a "pfft," everyone except Chen Ting burst out laughing.

Chen Qian struggled to lift his head from Jiang Lingling's embrace, glared hatefully at Chen Hao and the others, and then shouted at Jiang Lingling in embarrassment and anger, "Lingling, they're making fun of me."

"With me here, they won't dare to laugh," Jiang Lingling said, patting his back softly to comfort him.

Then, she turned to Chen Hao and the others, and arrogantly commanded, "No laughing!"

Otherwise, they'll be going against the Jiang family.

After enduring it for a long time, Gu Xingzhou couldn't hold back any longer. He sneered, "He's just a newly appointed official. What abilities could he possibly have?"

We, the Gu family, are not afraid.

Having operated in Beijing for so long, the Gu family has made many friends and has supporters behind the scenes.

We are not afraid to confront the Chiang family.

Hearing this, Lu Jiaqi disregarded her shyness and straightened her back, echoing, "Jiang Lingling, our Lu family isn't afraid of you either."

In terms of family background, she has never lost.

Her eldest uncle holds an important position in the military, and although her father is an official in Licheng, he will soon be transferred back to the capital. Several of her cousins ​​and brothers are either serving in the military or working in government departments.

Such a family background is quite impressive even in the capital.

Newly emerging officials like Jiang Lingling's family are no longer a force to be reckoned with in the capital.

"You!" Jiang Lingling exclaimed angrily, "Fine, fine, fine, you just wait!"

She had never been so wronged, being pointed at and insulted.

Seeing this, Chen Hao looked at Gu Xingzhou with concern and asked in a low voice, "Xingzhou, this is between Chen Qian and me. You don't need to get involved."

The Gu family was also in business, and he was worried that the Jiang family might actually cause trouble.

"It's alright, I have powerful backers," Gu Xingzhou replied in a low voice.

Even if his family's support is unreliable, he doesn't want to suffer in silence; when it's time to stand up for himself, he must stand up for himself.

After this incident, the two sides stopped bothering each other, creating an awkward atmosphere.

Chen Hao, however, acted as if nothing was wrong, and spoke quietly with Nan Yan.

Chen Qian didn't cause any more trouble and arrived at his destination smoothly.

As soon as he got off the plane, Chen Hao glanced at the sky and a smirk appeared on his lips.

He's arrived in the capital!

As soon as I came out, I saw Gu Xinglan waiting at the arrival gate.

Among so many people, the bright red-clad beauty stood out immediately.

Gu Xinglan waved vigorously at them and called out, "Xiao Hao, over here!"

Gu Xingzhou covered his face, leaned close to Chen Hao's ear, and whispered, "Brother Hao, I only told her that I was arriving in Beijing today, but I didn't say when I would arrive."

"It's nothing, I should thank Sister Lan for picking us up." Chen Hao waved his hand dismissively.

They had a lot of luggage, so it would be more convenient for someone to pick them up.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xingzhou breathed a sigh of relief and then walked towards his sister.

He looked his sister up and down, and asked curiously, "Sis, how did you know we were on this flight?"

Gu Xinglan rolled her eyes. "There aren't many flights from Licheng to Beijing every day, and you have to go to school this afternoon, so this flight is the only suitable one."

"Oh, that's how it is."

Gu Xinglan reached out and pushed her silly younger brother aside. She took a few steps and came to Chen Hao. "Xiao Hao, I'll take you to Peking University."

"Thank you for your help, Sister Lan," Chen Hao said with a smile.

Then, he took Nan Yan's hand and walked outside.

Gu Xinglan's eyes darkened as she looked at their clasped hands.

She comforted herself, telling herself it was just an engagement, not a marriage, and that she still had a chance.

Seeing his sister's unwilling look, Gu Xingzhou stood next to her and whispered, "Sis, forget it, Hao-ge is engaged."

You can't force matters of the heart.

Gu Xinglan pursed her lips tightly together, and after a while, she uttered a few words, "Not married yet."

Gu Xingzhou's eyes widened in disbelief. "Sis, you're going to be the other woman?"

"Shut up!" Gu Xinglan snapped angrily.

Seeing that his sister was still stubborn, Gu Xingzhou tried to persuade her earnestly, "Sister, there are plenty of men in the world. There's no need to hang yourself on one tree."

"But they are not Chen Hao."

After saying this, Gu Xinglan chased after Chen Hao.

She understands the道理 (principles/reasons), but she just can't control her heart. What can she do?

Seeing this, Gu Xingzhou chased after them with a helpless expression.

Seeing that his sister was stubborn and wouldn't give up until she hit a brick wall, there was nothing they could do but let her be.

Lu Jiaqi had already been picked up by his own driver.

Chen Hao had only taken a few steps when he stopped and looked at the unexpected person in front of him.
