Chapter 855: Chapter 579: The Agreeable Young Master Gu
She couldn’t deny that when she first ca here, she sought out n Chao as a patron, precisely because he had the capability to help her establish this club.
Of course, as the club grew larger and larger, and she t more and more capable people, n Chao beca less indispensable to her.
“I heard you’ve acknowledged a bunch of godmothers and godfathers outside. Lan Shuixian, who would have thought, you’ve got quite a few tricks up your sleeve.” n Chao showed disdain for Lan Shuixian’s words.
A woman who only thinks of relying on others to climb up surely has no small ambition.
“I’m not like you, you have the Xu Family behind you. I have nothing behind . If I don’t work hard, I really won’t be able to stand my ground in this Imperial Capital.”
“I can’t control the connections you want to make, but you shouldn’t help outsiders fra the Xu Family.” n Chao looked at her, sneering.
“n Chao, it’s not entirely my fault. To be honest, the only thing I did in this matter was to agree to help your wife treat her leg. As for the rest, I am completely unaware. Besides, we are the sa kind of people, you should clearly understand what they are up to.” They are all family mbers of the victims of the 319 case.
“I used to think they wanted to avenge us or help us find out the real truth behind the 319 case. As things developed, I didn’t see their determination to find the truth but saw them covering it up step by step. Therefore, I am now very suspicious of what their true motive is.”
Indeed, they did take care of them, and also helped him quickly enter the Xu Family. He himself also seized the opportunity and won the trust of Old Xu.
They always told them that back then, the Xu Family was the biggest suspect in the 319 case. He always treated the Xu Family as enemies. If not for this, he wouldn’t have taken over the Xu Family and beco the head of the Xu Family.
But now, he is uncertain.
As the truth of the 319 case gets closer and closer, so things he once believed are now in doubt.
The Xu Family may have so responsibility, but they are certainly not the real culprits behind the scenes.
The real culprits behind the scene, he dared not think about, perhaps they are the ones they always trusted.
What he couldn’t understand is why he would do that.
“n Chao, let be honest with you, I don’t care what the truth is. To put it bluntly, I have already accepted the fact that my parents are no longer around. Just to be straightforward, even if I know the truth now, what good would it do, can they co back to life? They can’t, can they? I don’t care what the truth is anymore, all I care about now is how we the living can live better.” Lan Shuixian is not the original host; she has no feelings for her short-lived parents.
As for the truth or not, she really has no interest.
n Chao looked at him: “You really are more heartless than I imagined.”
“I didn’t see you being very affectionate either.” They never even t since childhood, so how would there be any emotions.
“Lan Shuixian, I hope you understand your position at this ti if so people are truly the culprits, our situation is also very dangerous.”
“Of course, I understand.” Lan Shuixian smiled faintly, “n Chao, are you scared?”
Back then, the family mbers of the victims turned and assud another identity, if this were exposed it would definitely shock society.
n Chao chuckled, looked at Lan Shuixian with a profound gaze: “Lan Shuixian, I hope you’re not on their side, you must understand, if they are truly the culprits, the consequence would not be good.”
“n Chao, you still worry about now, instead of caring about yourself. With such an incident in the Xu Family, they certainly can’t shake off suspicions in a short ti.” Lan Shuixian was not worried at all, no matter how this matter ended, it was unrelated to her.
“I will prove my innocence myself, you needn’t worry.”
“By the way, have you heard about Su Xiaofeng being the top scholar in the liberal arts in high school?” Lan Shuixian suddenly called out to him.
n Chao stopped in his tracks, he didn’t know about this, he hadn’t been paying much attention to this matter recently.
The top scholar in the liberal arts, that is impressive.
That kind of woman, nothing really stumps her.
“I’m not concerned about this matter; I have no interest.” Finished speaking, n Chao went back.
The Xu Family was now under surveillance, and the Gu Family also knew about him coming to see Lan Shuixian.
It was also Gu Yecheng’s intention, using him to probe Lan Shuixian and that person’s intentions.
Standing in front of the club, n Chao looked at the sky.
The sky was clear with no clouds, it was good weather.
The deaths of his parents and the unborn younger sibling in his mother’s belly had always been a pain in his heart. He doesn’t understand how Lan Shuixian could remain indifferent.
But he couldn’t.
These years, as long as he thought of their deaths, he would lose sleep and feel extrely distressed.
Therefore, he must find out the truth and give them justice.
“Sir, Young Master Gu is waiting for you over there.” Yin Li pointed to the car not far away.
n Chao nodded and headed towards the car opposite.
Gu Yecheng was waiting for n Chao in the car.
Gu Yecheng was in a very good mood today; his wife’s surprise for him was too overwhelming, he found it hard not to be happy.
n Chao got into the car, glanced at Gu Yecheng, and his thin lips curved slightly: “Young Master Gu seems to be in a good mood.”
“Not bad, my wife just ca back from her college entrance exams as the top scholar in the liberal arts of the Imperial Capital, I find it hard not to be happy.” His wife indeed gave him too big a surprise. He knew his wife was not simple long ago, now saying she’s not simple is an understatent, she’s simply remarkable.
“The Young Madam of the Gu Family is indeed astonishing, I rember when she was about to take the exams earlier, many people didn’t think favorably of her. They said if she didn’t pass, it would be the Gu’s family face to lose. With this move, those who didn’t look favorably on her must have felt embarrassed today.” Su Xiaofeng growing up in the countryside had always been used by those people as a ans to attack her.
Before this, most people believed that Su Xiaofeng wouldn’t pass at all, and even if she entered so university, it was definitely through the Gu’s connections.
“My wife has always been a master of face-slapping.” Gu Yecheng laughed: “So, what did she say?”
n Chao took out a voice recorder from his pocket, “Listen for yourself, she is very seasoned in dealing with people and situations, not at all like soone of her age, but more like soone who has been in the worldly places for a long ti.”
n Chao knew about Lan Shuixian’s background, after her parents were gone, she always lived with her grandparents, she definitely had not been to such places as the realm of wind and moon.
When he first t her, he didn’t feel she was seasoned.
Now, however, he found that she was indeed very experienced in handling matters and people.
Gu Yecheng accepted the recorder, pressed play, and started listening.
“What are your plans now?” Gu Yecheng looked at n Chao.
“Of course, it’s a walk and see approach. I believe once the news of getting into your car spreads, he will soon find out. As for how he will instruct to act, I’m not sure yet. But the biggest possibility is that he will be wary of .”
“What I want now is to startle the snake in the grass, sotis staying hidden in the dark is not necessarily a good thing.”
“I hope it helps you. I ask for nothing more, but for you to uncover the truth of those days. I just want to know the real cause of my parent’s death.” The reason why n Chao chose to cooperate with Gu Yecheng is in hopes that Gu Yecheng can uncover the truth of the case of those days.
To others, this matter happened many years ago, and whether the truth mattered or not was not important to them, but for him, he really wanted to find out.
He wants to find the enemy and personally avenge them.
“Did your parents say or leave you anything a few days before they passed?” Gu Yecheng asked again.
n Chao took out a vintage hairpin from his pocket: “A few days before my parents passed, they left with this. At that ti, I was puzzled why would they give this to , as I’m not a girl.” This hairpin is what his mother usually used, and it was odd that she suddenly gave it to him that day.
Gu Yecheng took it, gently turned it without opening, and knocked it, finding it hollow: “Do you mind if I take it back with ? Don’t worry; I’ll just borrow it to take a look and return it to you. After all, this is sothing your mother left for you.”
“You can take it. I initially thought of giving it to your daughter, but your wife didn’t let her take it. Seeing your daughter reminds of the unborn sibling in my mother’s belly, so it makes especially fond of her.” n Chao gave a bitter smile.
But Gu Yecheng only smiled: “My daughter is indeed lovable, it can be said people love her at first sight, and flowers bloom at her presence, so it’s understandable that you like her. Alright, I’ll borrow it, and return it to you after using it.”
He promised to return it after using it.
n Chao chuckled: “If you truly an it, have your daughter accompany for a al soday.”
Gu Yecheng looked at him: “That’s not a problem, anyti. How about tonight at our place, my son and daughter will both accompany you for dinner.”
n Chao looked at Gu Yecheng, with astonishnt in his heart; Gu Yecheng being this agreeable today was unlike his usual style.
