Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Gu Tai
Chapter 35 -35 Gu Tai
Li Yueyue insisted on only having Long Chen take her shopping, and Li Yuechan had no other choice.
“Then you two go,” Long Chen, do you still have money?”
Li Yuechan asked Long Chen.
“I still do,” Long Chen replied. Last time when Li Yuechan gave him several tens of thousands, he hadn’t spent any of it yet.
“Alright, then go ahead, and remember to call me if anything comes up,” Li Yuechan said softly.
“Okay.”
Long Chen nodded.
“Brother-in-law, let’s go.”
Li Yueyue pulled Long Chen out the door.
Li Yuechan watched the two of them leave, and they looked just like a loving couple.

This made Li Yuechan feel somewhat uncomfortable, but she didn’t dwell on it too much.
After all, Li Yueyue was her younger sister, and it was impossible for there to be anything inappropriate between her and Long Chen.
While Li Yuechan was lost in thought, her phone suddenly rang.
“Mom, what’s up?”
Li Yuechan answered the call, frowning slightly.
“Yuechan, let’s go home quickly. Your second cousin is here, we should hurry back,”
Han Min said in a hurried tone.
“You guys go back first then,” Li Yuechan replied.
“How can we do that? Your cousin came specifically to see you. Hurry over, and you drive,”
Han Min urged.
“Alright then.”
Li Yuechan reluctantly agreed.
…
On the other hand, Long Chen and Li Yueyue had arrived at the mobile phone store.
The staff enthusiastically greeted and walked Long Chen and Li Yueyue through their options.
Li Yueyue was straightforward and immediately chose the latest model.
“Long Chen, which color do you think looks good?”
Li Yueyue turned to ask Long Chen.
“I don’t know what color you like, just pick what you like,” Long Chen said.
“I’ll like whatever you choose for me, just help me pick,”
Li Yueyue cooed, pulling on Long Chen’s arm.
The staff nearby also covered her mouth and laughed, “Sir, as a boyfriend, not knowing the color your girlfriend likes is already a big mistake. Now, just choose a color for her to make it up,”
“Exactly, exactly, you’re so right,”
Li Yueyue immediately put her hands on her hips, speaking to Long Chen, “You really aren’t doing a good job as a boyfriend.”
“Alright, then no phone for you.”
Long Chen said with a smile.
“Oh, brother-in-law, I know I was wrong,”
Li Yueyue quickly backed down.
However, the nearby staff member was dumbfounded—was a brother-in-law buying a mobile phone for his sister-in-law?
Was there a story behind this?
The staff member couldn’t help but start gossiping!
“Get her the silver-white one,” Long Chen told the staff.
“Okay, please wait a moment.”
The staff quickly brought over a silver-white mobile phone.
Just as he was about to unbox it, another male staff member rushed over, “Xiaomeng, slow down, wait a moment.”
The Xiaomeng mentioned was the female staff member assisting Long Chen and Li Yueyue.
Xiaomeng puzzled, “Zhou Hua, what’s up?”
Zhou Hua whispered, “There’s a customer over there who wants a silver-white one, and we have to wait two days to transfer the goods. He can’t wait and said he’s willing to add eight hundred. Why not give this one to him first?”
“How could that be possible? This one has already been sold to these two.”
Xiao Meng immediately responded.
“Let me handle this.”
Zhou Hua took a deep breath and then turned to Long Chen and Li Yueyue, smiling. “The two of you, actually rose gold, or black, or blue, they all look really good. How about you switch to another color? I’m really sorry.”
“No switch,” Long Chen responded flatly. “We want the silver-white one, sorry.”
“This…” Zhou Hua hesitated for a few seconds, then said in a low voice, “If you are willing to switch to another color, I’ll give you a three hundred discount.”
“Then you still make five hundred?”
Long Chen stared at Zhou Hua.
Zhou Hua was stunned and then said, “It’s not as much as you think, sir. Actually, it’s not about the money. The guy over there is my friend. His name is Gu Tai. He’s the grandson of Mr. Gu Changming.
Mr. Gu’s status in Seven Star City needs no mentioning, sir. I don’t want to offend him over a mobile phone, and I’m sure you wouldn’t either.”
“I really didn’t know that Mr. Gu had a grandson, but regardless if it’s true, I’m not giving up the phone because it wouldn’t be right,” Long Chen resolutely stated.
Hearing this, Zhou Hua furrowed his brows, thinking that Long Chen was being stubborn.
He turned and walked away, quickly approaching a young man nearby, whispering something to him.
After listening, the young man’s eyes slightly darkened, then he quickly approached Long Chen and Li Yueyue.
No doubt, this person was Gu Tai.
Gu Tai crossed his arms and looked at Long Chen with interest, then asked lightly, “I heard you’re not even giving face to my grandfather?”
“Why should I give face to your grandfather? If he knew you were misusing his reputation for a mobile phone, would he not feel disgraced?”
Long Chen glanced at Gu Tai.
Gu Tai’s face suddenly turned cold. “Since you put it that way, it’s no longer just about a phone.”
Long Chen scoffed, “What else could it be?”
“You don’t respect my grandfather; I can responsibly tell you that from now on, you will have a hard time getting around Seven Star City. Don’t doubt the power of the Gu Family,” Gu Tai coldly stated.
“Heh, it’s surprising that Mr. Gu has such a foolish grandson. I now wonder whether you’re really related to Mr. Gu by blood,” Long Chen seriously doubted.
“Who exactly are you?” Gu Tai’s expression changed.
Because Long Chen was right, he and Gu Changming had no blood relation; he was just an orphan taken in by Gu Changming.
This secret was known only by those in the core circle.
“It seems I guessed right,” Long Chen smiled dismissively. “Gu Tai, let me advise you, don’t casually use Mr. Gu’s reputation for personal gain. It won’t do you any good.”
“Who do you think you are? You’re not qualified to lecture me. If you don’t leave now, don’t blame me for breaking your legs.”
Gu Tai barked.
This shout immediately drew the attention of everyone in the mobile store.
“What happened?”
“They are not going to start fighting, are they?”
A crowd gathered, all curious and excited.
Hearing Gu Tai’s shout, the furrowed brows on Long Chen were hard to smooth out. “Gu Tai, I don’t care whether you’re Mr. Gu’s biological grandson, but for Mr. Gu’s sake, I’ll spare you this once and not hold it against you. As for the phone, there’s always a first-come, first-served rule. If you really like the silver-white color, just wait a couple more days.”
“First come, first served? I came before you, you!”
Gu Tai suddenly kicked at Long Chen.
Long Chen easily dodged and, in doing so, slapped Gu Tai across the face.
Gu Tai, struck by the slap, spun around on the spot, rage surging in his brain: “You dare to hit me, you’re done, truly done.”
“Oh, then I’ll give you a chance, call your grandfather right now,” Long Chen said, unfazed.
“You sure?”
Gu Tai doubted what he had heard.
“Call!”
Long Chen confirmed again.
“Fine, just wait. I’ll call him right now, and you’re really done for.”
Gu Tai pulled out his phone to make the call.
