"But Gu Wanqing, you're different. If you are the daughter of your aunt, then you are the legitimate successor to the Luo Family. " Luo Ziqi looked at Gu Wanqing and said.

He knew Gu Wanqing had not had a good life these past few years. He did not understand why she wanted to enter the upper class. He had always thought that she was too dissolute, shameless, and a gold digger.

Only now did he realize that Gu Wanqing wanted to avenge her aunt. It seemed that she had misjudged her in the past.

"If you want to return to the Luo Family, I can help you."

Looking at Luo Ziqi, Gu Wanqing's heart skipped a beat. "If I return to the Luo Family and become the heir to the Luo Family, then … will you be unable to become Director Luo?"

The expression on Luozi's face didn't change as he said flatly, "Director Luo is just a puppet. No matter who it is, they will still be the same." But you are different. You are the legitimate heir to the Luo Family. I support you in returning to the Luo Family to take back everything that belongs to you. However right now, the Luo Family only has a few uncles holding power behind them. It might be difficult for you to fully control the Luo Family. "

"It doesn't matter. As long as I possess the power of the Luo Family, I can avenge my mother and capture the true murderer behind her back." Gu Wanqing had never been afraid of difficulties or dangers. As long as she could avenge her mother, she was willing to do it.

Gu Wanqing looked at Luozi. She had not expected him to help her like this. She was deeply moved. Now, though, her mother's situation was progressing, and Gu Wanqing's heart was filled with excitement.

Being closer to the four noble families meant he was closer to the truth. This was undoubtedly a very important step for him.

Three days later, at the Wanhao Hotel, Luozi hosted a banquet without explaining the reason. However, as long as it was a high society person, Luozi had almost all invited them.

Gu Wanqing did not appear with Rong Zhi for this banquet. She had come alone.

"Oh my, is there no limit to the number of people at our level of dinner now? "Truly, any kind of cat or dog can really come in. It feels like they've been pulled down to a lower level."

"In other words, some people are really thick-skinned. Don't you know where this place is and what kind of status people can come here with?"

A few people were whispering to each other, staring at her. Although they were whispering, their voices were not low at all.

It wasn't the first time Gu Wanqing had heard these words. There were more important matters to attend to today, so she ignored them completely, not paying any heed to their words.

But they happened to be heard by Luozi.

Luo Ziqi noticed that Gu Wanqing was calm and didn't take their words to heart, so he frowned.

Gu Wanqing could bear it, but he didn't want anyone to insult her like that.

"Young Master Luo, y-we just spoke a few words and didn't say who it was. You don't have to do this, do you?" Just a moment ago, she was still chattering nonstop, but when she heard Luo Ziqi's order to expel her, she instantly became flustered.

After all, this was also a banquet held in the upper class. If they were kicked out like this, no one would invite them to this banquet in the future.

"Young Master Luo, don't be so heartless. You forget we had dinner together before. " The woman winked at Loki as she approached him.

It was a pity that Luozi had always been an untouchable person. He showed no mercy to those who bullied Gu Wanqing.

Jin Ling'er had a good relationship with Yin Jia. She had never had a good impression of Gu Shiqing, and she was not someone to be trifled with.

Now that he saw Luo Ziqi defending Gu Wanqing, he became even more jealous and shouted: "Young Master Luo, we didn't do anything, so you can't chase us away. "Besides, what kind of relationship do you have with Gu Wanqing? Why are you protecting her like this? Do you two have some kind of secret between you two?!"

Almost all of the guests present were attracted by these few people and slowly gathered over.

It was at this moment that Rong X walked into the hall. He spotted Luo Ziqi, Gu Wanqing and a few other women standing in the middle of the crowd.

"That's right, Young Master Luo. Gu Wanqing is Young Master Rong's girlfriend. It's not good for you to protect her like this. Besides, we didn't say anything about her." She doesn't even care about it herself, so why are you so excited? "

Hearing Jin Ling'er's words, the other women hurriedly echoed her words.

Rong Ten's face darkened when he heard the women's words. He strode into the crowd and pulled Gu Wanqing behind him. "What happened?" What are you doing? "

Jin Ling'er's eyes lit up when she saw him. "Young master Rong, you're finally here. If you didn't come, we would have thought that you were Young Master Gu's girlfriend." "We clearly didn't say anything. Young Master Luo wants to fight for Gu Wanqing's sake. This isn't how a hero saves a beauty, right?"

According to Luozi's former personality, this time he would definitely keep silent and not say another word.

But today, Luozi had stepped forward and held Gu Wanqing back. He said firmly, "You're welcome. It's my duty to take care of Gu Wanqing."

Seeing Luo Ziqi's provocative attitude, Rong Zhi immediately became angry: "What did you say? What do you mean? "

"Gu Wanqing is my sister. I should have taken care of her. As long as I am alive, I will not allow anyone to bully her. "

What?

Everyone's eyes widened when they heard Luozi's words.

"What did you say?" Rong X frowned and looked at Gu Shiqing and Luo Ziqi.
