Chapter 162: Each Eats Their Own
"Gong Tao, what do you think about this?" Zhang Lan looked up to see Gong Tao and Cai Meina just focusing on eating, and she was furious inside.
What do I think? How did the situation worsening have anything to do with him? Gong Tao didn’t understand why Zhang Lan was asking him this.
"Dad has already decided, and I think it’s fine too."
"Moreover, this is between the eldest brother and youngest brother, it’s not appropriate for me to comment."
"But in my view, whoever paid for it should get it, that’s fair."
"These days, you have to consider when trying to take advantage of others, not everyone will continue to be naive."
Once he finished speaking, he continued eating. If Zhang Lan is angry, let her be angry; this was an issue decided by the old man, and any suggestion he makes wouldn’t be a good one anyway.
"And in the future, about Gong Qiang’s matters, don’t ask my opinion unless I contribute money or effort, then you’ll be happy."
"I’ve already given what I could to my eldest brother; do you really want to drive our whole family to despair?" At the end, Gong Tao couldn’t help but release his resentment.
Gong Tao understood now, no matter how he reasoned with Zhang Lan, she was biased; she believed he ought to make sacrifices for the family, so he might as well be more assertive.
Previously, Zhang Lan behaved assertively in front of Gong Dajiang, and now she’s somewhat shrinking back, probably because the old man feels like giving up on everything.
Zhang Lan was so frightened by Gong Tao’s words that she didn’t dare say anything more.
