Chapter 161 Old Master Gu is back
In the living room, Gu Beixiao and Gu Yulin exchanged glances. Gu Beixiao's stern, unyielding expression puzzled Gu Yulin, who couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"
Gu Beixiao snorted coldly, his eyes filled with contempt: "Gu Yulin, why waste your time on me and Weiwei? Neither Weiwei nor I will go back to that Gu family. That's not our home."
There is a man named Gu Hanchi who wants them dead.
Can they still go back home?
That's practically playing with people's lives.
He and Weiwei wanted to live a little longer.
"What?"
"Your grandparents are coming back to China and you want Weiwei and me to meet them? Isn't that a bit too much like treating yourselves like family? Did you even ask for our opinions?"
Gu Beixiao was furious. He was ready to explode at the mere mention of anything about the Gu family.
So, Gu Yulin has essentially walked right into the line of fire.
"Huh? I'm just discussing this with you. If you're willing to go, I'll make the arrangements. We'll have a meal out. If neither you nor Weiwei want to go, then I'll refuse. What are you thinking?"
Gu Yulin had the demeanor of an elder brother. Among his brothers, he was the eldest, so as Gu Beixiao's older brother, he held the reins.
Gu Beixiao was taken aback. Could he really make that decision?
Do you think I'd believe that?
Gu Yulin didn't understand. What was there to disbelieve? Could he possibly lie about this?
Does he need to?
"No... Gu Beixiao, what exactly happened today? We've always gotten along quite well, so why are you so upset today?"
Their words are laced with veiled barbs.
Why does it feel like you're looking at an enemy?
He was wronged too, okay? He didn't know anything and was targeted.
Gu Beixiao gave Gu Yulin a cryptic look, and after a long while, he took a deep breath: "I'm sorry, I didn't control my emotions well."
He wasn't targeting us on purpose.
He knew that what happened back then had nothing to do with Gu Yulin, and no matter how much they targeted him, it wouldn't affect him.
But he was a bit emotional just now, and suddenly he started targeting Gu Yulin.
Gu Yulin didn't seem to care: "I didn't care, but you have to tell me what happened. Weiwei fainted, and you seem upset..."
Before he could finish speaking, Li Huaijin put his hand on his shoulder: "Boss, stop asking questions and come out with me for a smoke."
Li Huaijin made up an excuse and sent Gu Yulin away.
The two lit cigarettes outside the villa. Li Huaijin had a hint of melancholy in his eyes, which Gu Yulin couldn't understand: "What exactly happened? Tell me quickly."
"Boss, you need to be prepared. The truth... is cruel. Your third uncle is a scoundrel!"
Li Huaijin rarely showed a serious expression, and when he did, things were definitely not simple.
"What's the meaning?"
Li Huaijin told Gu Yulin the truth they had discovered in the photo album, and Gu Yulin took two steps back, finding it hard to accept.
"Impossible. My dad and uncle both said that my third uncle has no girlfriend, has never been in a relationship, and even injured his lower body during a mission. He..."
How could that be?
Are Third Uncle and Luo Huining a couple?
How could that be!
The second brother also said that the third uncle killed Chairman Luo Huining's child. Why would he be so cruel?
“He concealed his name, so naturally he would also conceal his whereabouts. Your grandfather is not the kind of person who would investigate his son’s whereabouts, so how could he possibly know?”
Li Huaijin's words made Gu Yulin frown.
“I’ll go with you to the Gu family’s place. We’ll leave things here to them.”
Li Huaijin went into the room once, opened the photo album, took a picture, and then left.
**
When the Gu family returned, the old mansion immediately became lively.
Gu Hanchi was very excited. He pushed the wheelchair to the old man's side and said, "Mom and Dad, you're finally back. You were gone for longer than I was."
He's been back for so long, and his parents are still outside.
Grandpa Gu was very happy. After all, he had a very comfortable trip and had his son and daughter-in-law by his side, something that others could only envy.
"With your second brother and sister-in-law accompanying us this time, we old folks will naturally want to enjoy ourselves more."
Grandpa Gu suddenly turned to look at his eldest son: "Hancheng, I heard from Yulin that you have a son and a daughter. Why aren't you at home? What did you and the third son do to the two children?"
Gu Hancheng hadn't felt this way in a long time. He sat there like a child who had made a mistake, listening to his parents' scolding: "Dad, there's been a misunderstanding between Weiwei and me. I... I'll keep trying."
Weiwei is, after all, a child of the Gu family, and Gu Beixiao, at such a young age, has built his fortune from scratch and become a rising star in the capital. He is a rare talent.
Since they are both children of the Gu family, he could not allow his two children to remain wandering outside.
“But that’s not what I heard.” The old man’s previous cheerful expression vanished, and his gaze toward Gu Hanchi became very serious.
"Third brother, I heard you kidnapped your own niece. Can you tell me why?"
Gu Hanchi mentally cursed Gu Yulin, he hadn't expected that guy to say so much.
"Dad, there's a misunderstanding. I didn't kidnap Weiwei. I just invited her to my manor and we talked for a bit. It's Yulin and Jingxiao who misunderstood."
He won't admit it.
Moreover, since his elder brother already believes him, he is even less likely to admit to the previous kidnapping.
"Yeah?"
Gu Hanchi's heart sank. The old man still refused to believe him. No matter what, he only trusted his eldest and second brothers and had no trust in him at all.
"Dad, if you don't believe me, you can ask my older brother. If I really kidnapped his daughter, how could he possibly speak to me calmly?"
Gu Hancheng quickly said, "Dad, don't misunderstand the third brother. The third brother didn't intend to kidnap anyone. His men were a little too heavy-handed and injured Weiwei's wrist. That's why Yulin and Jingxiao said it was a kidnapping, but it wasn't."
"Really?" Old Master Gu clearly didn't believe his eldest son either: "You've always protected the third son, without missing a single one in over 20 years. What you're saying... I don't quite believe it."
He trusted his eldest grandson more than his two treacherous sons.
Unless there's something special, Gu Yulin won't bother him.
If someone dares to bother him, even calling him at any time or place, it's either because something very urgent has happened.
Otherwise... his eldest grandson wouldn't have bothered him while he was traveling.
Grandpa Gu glanced around the villa's living room: "Yu Lin went out?"
As soon as he finished speaking, two people walked in through the door. They were Gu Yulin and Li Huaijin.
Li Huaijin stepped forward and bowed very respectfully to the old man and woman: "Grandpa Gu, Grandma Gu, you're back. It's been so long. Did you miss me?"
Grandpa Gu laughed heartily, and Grandma Gu was also all smiles, her love overflowing.
Grandpa Gu: "You little rascal, you're such a grown man and you still have no manners."
Li Huaijin didn't mind at all. He smiled and said, "Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu, I'm only saying this because I like you. I treat you like my own grandparents. What's wrong with me being a little affectionate?"
Grandpa Gu was amused and said, "Alright, alright, I can't argue with you."
"What are you doing here at this time?" Old Master Gu asked.
"I'm here to deliver a message to Uncle Gu."
"What did you say?"
