Gu Shen did not force Ye Chaxu. Instead, he felt that it would be good if she could appear in front of great grandpa and hide from him for a while.
great grandpa hated her so she attacked her verbally. When she was mentally prepared to accept everything, she allowed her to come out …
At the dining table.
great grandpa did not see Ye Chaxu, and revealed a puzzled look. He looked at Gu Shen with an ugly expression, and his eyes revealed obvious displeasure: "Where's Ye Chaxu?"
"She has a cold and is not feeling well. She is resting in her room!" However, Ye Chaxu did not have a cold, this was only the reason he was looking for. If he did not find any other reason, great grandpa would know that Ye Chaxu was hiding and would become even angrier.
Hearing that, the great grandpa's expression became serious, and deliberately made things difficult for them: "Heh! This body is truly delicate, able to rest even after a small illness and not even paying attention to the elders. " He felt that a cold was a small matter, but Ye Chaxu acted as if he was seriously ill.
"great grandpa, you indicated that you don't like her this morning, and you left without even eating breakfast. If she sat at the same table as you, and you saw her, and she's not here now, then you can eat in peace!" Gu Shen said with a fake smile, not at all afraid of the great grandpa getting angry.
If my guess is right, then the matter will make great grandpa even angrier, and in order to deal with that matter, great grandpa will immediately leave.
When great grandpa heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched, and his eyes darkened: "Gu Shen, don't play tricks on me, you better think carefully about what I want you to do, and think about it yourself."
Gu Shen nodded and did not say a word.
Seeing that, Gu Shaoting wanted to say something, but Gu Zhongshan seemed to know what he was thinking. He reached out and grabbed Gu Shaoting, using his eyes to signal for him to not say anything.
Gu Shaoting was unwilling to accept this, but he still obediently shut his mouth.
Just then, a bodyguard walked to great grandpa's side.
With a solemn expression, he moved closer to the great grandpa's ear and whispered something.
Hearing that, great grandpa's face changed, he suddenly stood up, his eyes revealing a look of nervousness.
However, he quickly calmed down and recovered his calm. He kept his breathing steady as he looked at everyone and said, "Something has happened at headquarters. I need to go back and take care of it."
Hearing that, everyone looked at great grandpa in shock.
A hint of a smile appeared in Gu Shen's eyes, it seemed that Mo Xie did not disappoint him.
"Dad, what happened?" The Grandpa Gu asked curiously. A pair of eyes that were filled with anticipation and worry were staring fixedly at the great grandpa.
"Grandfather, what's going on?" Gu Zhongshan also asked curiously, as he had a bad feeling about this.
great grandpa's expression was solemn, he did not answer the question, but looked at Grandpa Gu and said seriously: "The funeral is over, pack your things and come back to headquarters with me!"
The Grandpa Gu nodded without hesitation. Ever since the old granny died, he didn't care where she went.
"Gu Shen, after this matter is settled, you should head back to the headquarters." great grandpa looked at Gu Shen as he instructed him, his expression solemn: "You must remember what I say, the next time you see me, you must tell me your choice." Pausing for a moment, he then added, "Also, find out about your grandmother as soon as possible. If you are unable to find out, then I will send people to investigate." He had high hopes for Gu Shen, and hoped that Gu Shen would not disappoint him again.
Gu Shen slightly nodded his head and did not reply. His face did not have much expression either, instead, he was depressed.
He had to quickly find out who the real culprit was, otherwise, if great grandpa interfered, even if Ye Chaxu did not do it, if great grandpa wanted to deal with her, he had to incriminate her, and she would be screwed.
"Gu Yuan, Zhou Lin, teach your son well." great grandpa then looked towards Gu Yuan and Zhou Lin for instructions, his tone especially solemn and respectful: "If he did anything wrong, you parents will definitely take responsibility for it."
"Yes, grandfather." Gu Yuan and Zhou Lin answered in unison.
great grandpa squinted his eyes, his cold gaze sweeping across the floor above, and laughed foolishly: "A girl that only knows how to hide from strangers, she's not fit to be a woman of the Gu family." Finished speaking, he stomped his feet and left, his bodyguard following him.
Gu Zhongshan, Gu Shaoting, Gu Lin, and Gu Ye An also stood up and quickly followed.
Grandpa Gu gave Gu Shen a profound look and left as well.
Zhou Lin looked at the table which no one touched and his face sank: You all don't eat?
"Eat later. Let's go see grandpa out." Gu Yuan pulled Zhou Lin up and went out.
Gu Shen smiled deeply, slowly picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of Red Braised Meat to eat, only then did he stand up and leave after sending off great grandpa's group …
Gu Shen felt relaxed sending off the great grandpa and his entourage.
Although they were all family, their thoughts were too complicated. There would never be any kind of familial love between them.
Gu Yuan called Gu Shen to the study room.
"Your great grandpa and grandfather have left. Tell me honestly, is the incident at headquarters related to you?" Gu Shen squinted his eyes and stared at Gu Shen. The ray of light it emitted was too smart, as if it could see through Gu Shen's eyes.
Gu Shen shrugged his shoulders and said innocently: "My abilities are limited. Against the headquarters, I don't have that power, and with my little trick skills, if the great grandpa finds out, then I'll just kick myself in the foot."
"Is that so?" Gu Yuan stared at Gu Shen suspiciously, he did not quite believe Gu Shen's words.
Honestly speaking, he couldn't see through Gu Shen, but Gu Shen's personality was similar to his.
"Of course." In front of his father, he would not reveal anything strange. Although Gu Yuan was his father, he still had some things to hide, so he pretended to be innocent: "Besides, why should I do that?"
After Gu Yuan heard this, he did not say anything, but stared intently at Gu Shen, his eyes searching, no one knew what he was thinking.
Gu Shen looked at Gu Yuan calmly, as if he was telling the truth that he had never done it before.
Gu Yuan was immersed in his own thoughts, he thought for a moment, sighed, and spoke with a faint warning tone: "Gu Shen, I hope you can stop everything that you have to." Gu Shen was his son, and there were some things that might not be so peaceful.
Even if Gu Shen really did something, Gu Shen would not speak the truth, he hoped that he was overthinking it.
Although he did not know what had happened to the headquarters, but when he saw the anxious great grandpa rushing back, he knew that it was very serious.
"Dad, I've always done things with a sense of propriety. You should understand." Gu Shen smiled, he did not do things impulsively, he would think about it three times before deciding to do it.
Hearing that, Gu Yuan tilted his head and spoke straightforwardly: "But, when you encounter matters concerning Ye Chaxu, you will forget your own identity and do some things that will anger others." Gu Shen's rationality would return to zero whenever he encountered Ye Chaxu.
Gu Shen did not utter a word, his expression turning ugly for a moment.
