After the two left, the old man drank about half a cup of tea before putting down his teacup and dialing the phone on the table.

It's not that Dean Gu didn't hear anything at all, but since there was no danger, and the person was just looking at it with a bit of affection, Dean Gu isn't that gossipy.

But the old man has crossed more bridges than the average person has walked roads in his life, and he has tasted more salt than most people have eaten rice.

If you have doubts, then just ask someone to clarify them!

Sure enough, a phone call went straight to the resort where the little rascals used to play.

Hmm, who is this old man?

It's pretty easy to guess that the problem occurred at the resort; otherwise, why would they be back so early this morning when they were supposed to be back in the afternoon?

Since that's the case, let's just ask the second son of the Qin family.

On the other end of the phone, Uncle Qin answered hurriedly:

"Uncle Gu, is there something you need to call about?" He had obviously run over.

The old man from the Gu family called personally, saying that if they could fly, they definitely wouldn't run.

Uncle Qin was also getting on in years, and he was panting heavily from running, but even so, he didn't dare to neglect the person on the phone; he wasn't that bold.

The old man didn't need to ask any subtle questions if he wanted to know the situation; he could have just gotten straight to the point. After all, Uncle Qin wouldn't dare to deceive or mislead the old man.

"What happened?"

Nobody's a fool. Qin's second uncle could put on a show for others, but when facing the old man, he paused for a moment and then revealed everything he knew.

"Uncle Gu, that's all I know, really."

The old man didn't respond immediately; his gaze sharpened slightly, then flickered before he spoke:

"Alright, you go ahead and do your thing."

After hanging up the phone, Uncle Qin finally breathed a heavy sigh of relief. His gaze involuntarily drifted outside, and he couldn't help but mutter: "So easy to read novels!"

"Oh well, this is going to be troublesome again!"

Who would have thought that person was involved in that incident more than forty years ago?

This matter is not something that can be easily forgotten. Everyone knows that the ship that sank was full of nobles from various countries.

Heh~

What is this called?

The net of Heaven is vast, its meshes are wide, yet nothing escapes it!

No matter how much power you have, you can't withstand the evidence for long, and your misdeeds will eventually be exposed!

......

If even Uncle Qin could think of something, how could Old Master Gu not have thought of it?

He was deep in thought, and his expression turned even more unpleasant.

A long time passed... and the old man finally reached for the phone and dialed again. Clearly, this time, his hand was trembling, but the call eventually went through.

"It's me, Lao Gu."

"There's something I wanted to report to you."

After something was said on the other end of the phone, a slight smile finally appeared on the old man's face.

"Of course, you're the superior and I'm the subordinate, right? The matter I want to discuss this time..."

How much do you know about the shipwreck that happened forty years ago?

Actually, we could say it directly, but the events of forty years ago are painful for everyone, and it's impossible to say them so easily.

Clearly, the person on the other end of the phone sounded somewhat tired.

"Sigh, it's that matter again? Alright, let's just settle it once and for all then. I know some information that the shipwreck was directly related to the Qian family's withdrawal from the capital. What information have you gotten this time, Old Man Gu?"
