Chapter 144: If it wasn't for that "accident", there would not be Gu Xi. (1)
Gu Xi flipped to a group photo with names on the bottom and looked through the names carefully. Unfortunately, there was nobody with the surname Jie there.
She flipped through a few more and the only one with the surname Jie seemed to be slightly younger than Old Mr. Gu. He most likely was not Old Mr. Gus teacher who had set him up in the novel.Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m
That being said, Gu Xi did not want to give up. She pointed at the person in the photo with that name and asked, Who is this, Grandpa?
This one? Old Mr. Gu stuck his head over, thought about it some before he said, Oh, he was not in our squad. He was in Squad #3
Whats the matter? asked Old Mr. Gu dubiously.
Gu Xi shook her head quickly and said, Oh, nothing. He looked like a very popular idol.
Old Mr. Gu didnt think much of that when he heard it and grumbled. Girls nowadays like this kind of look. That was not the case back in the days.
Do you have any more photos, Grandpa? asked Gu Xi again, still refusing to give up.
This is it. I am not that much into keeping photos when I was young. These were collected by your grandmother. Pausing, Old Mr. Gu smiled at Gu Xi. What is it? Xixi wants to see more photos?
Gu Xi nodded, then shook her head and looked for an excuse. I noticed that Grandpa is super attractive when he was young so I want to see more.
Pausing, Gu Xi quickly added, You are still a handsome man at your age.
Old Mr. Gu was delighted by her words. He shook his hand and said, Back in the days nobody cared about how you look. It was all about now competent you are. Har har har.
Thats a direction that we can consider, said Gu Feng.
Gu Shao did not comment.
The three then talked about how Gu Feng had been injured in one of his past assignments.
That was when Old Mr. Gu had aged and began moving behind the scene. It was, however, still when the Gu family was in its most glorified state.
In addition, all three of his sons were very accomplishing and that made the Gu family even more reputable.
Many believed that the Gu family would move up another tier.
Back then, Gu Feng, in the troop, was able to achieve very high honors even without the help of the Gus power in less than five years.
Lo and behold, Gu Feng was injured from an explosion in a mission that should have been risk-free and was even handicapped.
Unlike Gu Shao and Gu Xian, the oldest of the Gu family much prefer the atmosphere in the troop and, had it not been for that incident, would for sure still be in the troop and would never have converted to a desk job.
Gu Feng was able to gather some evidences against Gu Yaobai regarding the mysterious accident and had someone picked him up.
Then, the Gu family was able to collect more evidences and the entire incident seemed to be more complicated than it appeared. Gu Yaobai was one of them but there seemed to be more people involved than just him.
It was all the Gu familys fault for attracting too much attention.
