However, the two brothers wouldn't listen to her at all and continued arguing, their voices growing louder and louder.
Their mothers have been absent from their lives for over twenty years, and neither of them wants to back down; they are determined to reclaim the companionship they have lacked.
Watching the two of them argue, and seeing that they didn't intend to fight, Li Yan turned around and ran upstairs, escaping a storm that seemed impossible to quell.
After Li Yan left, the two of them suddenly stopped talking and stared blankly at her departing figure.
The two brothers then exchanged a glance, looked away, gave a tacit snort, and went about their own business.
The next day, Gu Tingyan brought Li Yan to the banquet.
The banquet hall was brightly lit and filled with melodious music. People dressed in gorgeous gowns strolled through the spacious hall.
The air was filled with the scents of perfume and food, making one feel as if they were in a dream world.
Li Yan wore an elegant strapless dress, shining like a star in the night sky.
Gu Tingyan, dressed in an exquisite black suit, appeared at the banquet, holding Li Yan's hand tightly.
Li Yan obediently acted as a decorative vase, standing quietly beside Gu Tingyan, occasionally smiling politely at Gu Tingyan's business partners who were chatting and laughing with him.
Suddenly, Li Yan caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.
Zhou Zeran is talking to General Manager Liu.
Mr. Liu was obese with a fleshy face and liked to wear gold and silver; he looked like a nouveau riche.
Currently, he has a project in hand, which involves land.
Zhou Zeran struck up a conversation with him ingratiatingly, clearly wanting to get involved and get a share of the profits in order to expand the studio.
She took a slow sip of her drink, and her gaze towards Zhou Zeran instantly sharpened.
Information about this General Manager Liu flashed through Li Yan's mind.
She has recently been paying attention to Gu Tingyan's collaborative projects, and President Liu's project is one of them.
This Mr. Liu is not a reliable partner; his projects harbor many risks.
After Gu Tingyan said goodbye to the person he had just been talking to, Li Yan pulled him aside and whispered, "Tingyan, you'd better not sign a contract with President Liu."
Gu Tingyan was slightly taken aback, and looked at Li Yan with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
He asked, "Why? Mom, this project looks very promising."
Li Yan frowned, a hint of worry in her eyes. "This General Manager Liu is unreliable; his projects have many problems. We can't take the risk."
Gu Tingyan unhesitatingly chose to unconditionally believe Li Yan: "Mom, I understand."
When President Liu came to discuss cooperation with Gu Tingyan again with a big smile, Gu Tingyan's expression instantly turned cold, as if covered with a layer of frost.
He slightly raised his chin, his eyes revealing a firm refusal: "I'm sorry, Mr. Liu, we currently have no plans to develop the land."
"Mr. Gu, this project really has great potential. Would you like to reconsider?" Mr. Liu said eagerly.
Gu Tingyan remained unmoved: "No need, I've already made up my mind."
Mr. Liu looked puzzled and unwilling to be rejected so easily, so he continued to ask for the reason.
"President Gu, why did you suddenly change your mind? You have to give me a reason." President Liu's voice carried a hint of accusation.
He had been working on this project for over a month, only to find that Gu Tingyan simply refused to cooperate, leaving him somewhat resentful.
However, Gu Tingyan had no intention of answering him.
He merely glanced at President Liu indifferently, then turned and left with Li Yan.
President Liu stood there, his face flushed with anger, his voice filled with rage and resentment: "Hmph, Gu Tingyan, you've gone too far!"
