Hearing that, great grandpa's eyes flashed a look of shock: You have someone in the headquarters? Headquarters had been his hard work for many years. Although he had raised Gu Shen and Gu Shaoting as his successors, he had always been on guard against their people infiltrating the headquarters.
He was very familiar with the headquarters and was very familiar with the company's situation. He had always been on his guard as only the true successor would be able to understand everything about the headquarters and enter the headquarters.
Thus, when Gu Shen said that he knew that the headquarters' treasury was taking the money away, he guessed that Gu Shen had sent people to headquarters to monitor the entire time. Otherwise, how would he know about it so quickly?
Although he knew that he wouldn't be able to guard against this, and that sooner or later, Gu Shen's people would live in the headquarters, he could pretend that he didn't know. Today, he would go along with Gu Shen's words and ask, to see what Gu Shen had to say.
"I heard grandfather mention it, and I am a member of the Gu family, so it is not strange that I know about this matter. After all, Gu Shaoting already knows about it." Gu Shen smiled, he knew what great grandpa meant by his question.
He did have someone at headquarters, but he couldn't say it out loud.
Even if great grandpa knew, he would pretend not to know, because great grandpa could hide from him for a while, and would not be able to hide from him for a lifetime. As long as he was a smart person, he would arrange for people to be at the headquarters to monitor his every move.
Furthermore, he believed that his people were not the only people in the headquarters, even Gu Shaoting's people were there.
Furthermore, even Gu Shaoting knew about it, how could he not know?
After hearing what Gu Shen said, the great grandpa did not say anything.
"great grandpa, something has happened at headquarters. As the successor of the family, I should have some ability. As for the reason why I didn't inform you in advance, it's because I wanted to find the finance department to tell you. It's just that after Mo Xie found the treasury, he did not bring it back because the treasury had pleaded for mercy and even said that it was going to surrender. That was why he did not bring it back, nor expose it, and instead let the treasury turn itself in. " Gu Shen said calmly, without a single ripple on his face, as if he was bringing up a matter that could not be any calmer.
"Is that really the case?" great grandpa stared at Gu Shen suspiciously, his eyes sharp.
Gu Shen nodded and grinned: "Of course, do you really think I'm lying?" But in fact, he was lying.
However, he had not colluded with the finance department. He had only pulled the finance department in a logical fashion, leading to a series of troubles.
The great grandpa did not say anything and just stood there silently.
"great grandpa, I know that after experiencing this matter with Ye Chaxu, you have some scruples towards me, I understand that, but you cannot doubt me just because of a few words. If that's really the case, then great grandpa will become muddle-headed." Gu Shen said straightforwardly, not afraid of offending the great grandpa if he spoke too much.
When the great grandpa heard this, he could not help but frown.
He raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "Since it's been mentioned, we should investigate." What Gu Shen had just said displeased him, as his words became more and more impudent. Given enough time, he might not even place in his eyes.
However, the person in front of him was of his blood, and he would sometimes have to be indulged.
He indeed doted on Gu Zhongshan and Gu Shaoting, but Gu Shen was the one he valued the most. He hoped that Gu Shen would be the best, and stand out in the competition to become an outstanding successor.
Gu Shen nodded as the corner of his mouth curled into a smile. Helplessness flashed through his eyes.
"Gu Shen, you have grown up, you have thought and thought and you are very smart, you know what you want, the great grandpa cannot care about you for your entire life, even if we have to restrict you now, when the time comes when the great grandpa lets go, you will reveal your true nature and do what you want." great grandpa said solemnly, his expression extremely solemn, "However, I hope that no matter what you do, you will have to prioritize your family, do not ignore the family's interests, and even put your family in danger."
"I understand." Gu Shen nodded his head, he would consider the Gu family when they do things, and as long as the Gu family members did not disappoint him, he would not disappoint the Gu family members.
"Regarding Ye Chaxu, she can stay here. After she gives birth to her child, she can hold a simple banquet and officially bring her child to the Gu family!" The great grandpa said his decision, but his heart wasn't like that, it was to temporarily soothe Gu Shen, and find a chance to destroy everything behind his back.
Ye Chaxu could not stay in the Gu family no matter what, but he was afraid that he would make Gu Shen disgusted. If he met Gu Shen head on when that happened, he would lose an outstanding successor if Gu Shen acted rashly.
When Gu Shen heard great grandpa's words, his face revealed a joyful smile, "Thank you, great grandpa." Being able to hear the great grandpa's words was too lucky.
As long as great grandpa let it go, the rest of the Gu family would not dare to say anything more.
"Gu Shen, to be honest, in the great grandpa's heart, you are the most important. I hope you can understand the painstaking effort great grandpa has put in." great grandpa suddenly said sincerely with a doting expression.
In these past few days, everything he had done had been far from Gu Shen, and Gu Shen probably thought in her heart that he wasn't in love with her, so she had some negative thoughts.
In order to pacify Gu Shen, he needed to open his heart, and said: "great grandpa's strict treatment of you, hopes that you can become better and better.
Actually, Gu Shen was already very outstanding. For him to be able to find the treasury in a short period of time and even make the treasury turn itself around, it showed that his network of people was wide. He was even more outstanding than Gu Shaoting, and was a success.
However, when it came to emotions, he couldn't let them go.
That was why he doted on Gu Zhongshan and Gu Shaoting even more. It was because the two of them had a lot of supporters, but Gu Shen's actions were disappointing. In order to not let others say that he was biased, he had to stay away from Gu Shen and get close to him.
However, he had also thought that if Gu Shen was disobedient, even if Gu Shaoting was not blood related, he would still choose Gu Shaoting as his successor. This was because he could not lose to the Gu Family in everything.
Hopefully, Gu Shen understood his painstaking efforts.
Gu Shen was startled, but after that he nodded his head.
great grandpa nodded slightly and said tiredly: "Go! I'm tired and I want to sleep. "
"Alright, then great grandpa will rest early." Gu Shen replied and walked out.
A satisfied smile appeared on his face, because he had already reached his goal.
Through this matter, he had already let the great grandpa know of his ability, after all, everyone was looking for the finances, but they could not find it, yet he still found it, and even made the finances voluntarily turn themselves in, his ability was already displayed in front of everyone.
He also let the great grandpa see that the battle between him and Gu Zhongshan had already begun, because Gu Zhongshan gave the photo to the great grandpa, and the underlying meaning of his words was that Gu Zhongshan was framing him. Even if he didn't bring it up himself, the great grandpa would understand what he meant and would know that Gu Zhongshan had started to deal with him for the position of the successor.
He did not appear to be wronged, nor did he say much.
