After Ye Chaxu heard this, he was shocked.
She never thought that the Gu Family would be so powerful. Although she had only heard Gu Shen's story about his background and had not personally witnessed it, she still felt quite a bit of shock.
"Must I be the heir?" Gu Shen had said that he would fight with Gu Shaoting until the end, and he really wanted to be the leader? He wanted to be the strongest person there was.
Gu Shen nodded as her eyebrows knitted together slightly. "Since we were young, Gu Shaoting and I have been trained to become successors. If we give up, it means that we have to give up on everything in the Gu family. After pausing for a moment, he added: "If I fail, then I will be chased out of the Gu family with no money at all, because Gu Shaoting will not let me go."
The corner of Ye Chaxu's mouth twitched, and his face revealed an expression of sympathy towards Gu Shen.
He suddenly realized that the pressure on his body was too great and he was shouldering too much of a burden.
Moreover, the successor was simply too retro. It was the same as when a prince fought for the throne in ancient times.
"You said that the Gu Clan has grown and has many members, but as the leader, can you really control so many people? Will they all listen to you? " Gu Shen said that the Gu Clan was being too big, she was very confused on how to manage these people. and all of them listened to Gu Shen's words?
Gu Shen smiled lightly and explained, "Every year, the chief will gather all the members of the Gu Clan for a banquet, and all the members of the Gu Clan will have a list of names, which will be included in the Gu Clan's tree. Everyone's identity, actions, and situation will be clearly recorded. Furthermore, the chief has trusted aides, and these people will all be wandering around among the members, supervising everyone's actions. " He paused for a moment before continuing, "If these people do evil deeds outside and harm the interests of the Gu family, then the leader will send someone to teach them a lesson and punish them. Furthermore, the Gu family's business will continue to develop until today, all thanks to the chief giving out funds. If anyone disobeys and has ill intentions, the chief will withdraw his investment funds and cut off his future path. "
"If you take back the investment funds, you will only be able to deal with the Gu family members who are in the business world. What about the military Gu family members?" Ye Chaxu asked curiously.
"Those people may seem righteous and honest, but they are actually a little tricky to deal with. If we make a mistake, we will submit the evidence to the higher ups and they will punish us."
Ye Chaxu was flabbergasted and asked in disbelief, "It's really precise to the point of everyone?"
"The Gu family has a specialized talent system. Do you think that our country's technology is just for show?" Gu Shen said seriously, as he firmly believed in the Gu family's management of talent.
Nowadays, high technology was very developed. Sometimes, monitoring a person only required tools.
"Too powerful, but also complicated." Ye Chaxu was impressed, but he was also confused by what he heard.
Gu Shen smiled gently and pampered, "You'll slowly understand this after you get familiar with it."
Ye Chaxu nodded.
"Oh right, why don't you let Grandpa Gu and Gu Shaoting's grandfather, as well as Father and Gu Shaoting's father fight for it, and instead let you and Gu Shaoting fight for it?" she asked curiously, with too much confusion on her face.
At that time, the difference between Gu Shaoting and I was born and was not that far off. great grandpa felt that it was more appropriate for the two of us to die, so he designated Gu Shaoting and I to fight for it. " explained. Actually, he felt that this position had troubled many people, and was unfair to his father and Gu Shaoting's father, because they had always wanted that position. Now, they could only give their sons a chance to fight for it.
"I think so! great grandpa should be able to give the position to whoever he likes, because this is too bad for the two of you to fight for it. " Ye Chaxu expressed his opinion, he did not agree with the method of letting his family compete with each other.
Gu Shen let out a faint sigh, and said helplessly: "There's no choice, we have to fight for it, because the Grandpa Gu wants someone with strong and powerful abilities to take charge of the Gu family. If we rely on our own selfishness, it's decided on who we like, and if this person's ability is insufficient, then the Gu family will be destroyed, and the great grandpa will not watch the Gu family being destroyed from his hands, so the Grandpa Gu will be cautious."
Ye Chaxu sighed along with him, and could not help but feel regret: "Ah! Our loved ones have become enemies. "
"Ha!" I'm used to it, and I've seen too many families fight for money. " Gu Shen sneered, he had long since gotten used to fighting methods, and if you did not fight, then the one who would be at a disadvantage would be yourself.
Because in this society, there were always many people who were realistic.
"Su Xu, I'm telling you this because I hope you can slowly integrate in and follow me through these battles." Gu Shen looked at Ye Chaxu tenderly, the burden on him was not light either.
As his wife, she had to be vigilant, because she had to prevent people from using Ye Chaxu to deal with her.
After all, there were times when he would do it for the sake of benefits. He was afraid that he would not be able to protect Ye Chaxu, and she was his soft support.
Ye Chaxu nodded silently and could not help but doubt himself. Could she do it well?
I'm afraid she can't.
As if he knew what she was worried about, Gu Shen smiled and comforted her, "Su Xu, leave everything to me. As long as you hold my hand tightly, we can pass it." After a moment's hesitation, he continued, "Although you might be mocked and ridiculed by all kinds of people, and even suffer if I fail, I'm still selfish. I want you to stay with me and encourage me."
"Do I have any influence on you by being treated as a murderer?" Ye Chaxu looked at Gu Shen pitifully, and started to feel uneasy.
Gu Shen nodded without hesitation and said with a smile, "It's not big, I can handle it well."
"But, I'm afraid..." Ye Chaxu was worried, the matter this time around was not easily resolved, the criminal case was too troublesome.
Gu Shen pulled Ye Chaxu into his embrace and patted her back lightly, "It's alright, let's face it together."
"Gu Shen, I understand your family's background now, I'm not afraid of encountering anything. As long as you don't let me go, I'll accompany you. Ye Chaxu said emotionally. She didn't really care about his family, she only cared about him, and she only wanted him.
Of course, if she could help, then she would do her best.
Gu Shen smiled, he did not say a word, and only hugged Ye Chaxu tightly …
Lunch.
Ye Chaxu was afraid that his appearance would make everyone unhappy again, so she did not go downstairs to eat. Instead, she hid in her room and let the servants bring her food.
