"Today, I have something else to announce." Old Master Gu paused, keeping the conversation a secret, then said aloud, "I hereby announce that my eldest grandson, Gu Zhan, is the heir to the Gu family. I hope that friends from all walks of life will look after him and provide mutual assistance."
The guests were not in an uproar, but they were whispering to each other.
"Aren't there still Second Master Gu and Third Master Gu? How come..." He skipped a generation and fell directly on the eldest grandson.
"It's not surprising. Second Master Gu doesn't have a great reputation and doesn't own many large businesses. Third Master Gu runs an entertainment company, and the technology company founded by Young Master Gu has received support from above. The future of the technology industry is promising."
"They are all my descendants anyway, so of course I'll pick the one with the most outstanding abilities."
"By the way, I haven't seen Mr. Gu since the dinner started?"
Yes, no wonder I felt like something was missing.
Mr. Gu Tanxiong is not here.
But Third Master Gu Chenfeng is here.
Their eyes instantly turned to Gu Chenfeng, trying to see some dissatisfaction or other emotions on his face towards Mr. Gu's announcement of the heir.
Gu Chenfeng sat on the sofa in the rest area, took a sip of red wine, and continued to fiddle with his mobile phone as if he was not affected by the situation here at all.
He lowered his voice and sent a voice message to a contact:
"Manager Ye, was the second son really exiled by the old man to Africa to dig for diamonds? He didn't even show up to cause trouble today! Unbelievable."
Manager Ye sent an ellipsis.
After a long while, he replied: "Third Master, Mr. Tan Xiong has already started working at the branch office. If you have any questions, you can ask the old chairman."
Gu Chenfeng sucked his teeth, suppressed his laughter and continued, "Don't say it, you really don't say it."
"When he's not here at this kind of event, it always feels like something's missing. If I had known he wouldn't come, there would be no one to liven up the atmosphere. I should have invited some veteran artists to perform. What a pity."
"You're so mean! You didn't even tell me that your second son was going to Africa!"
Manager Ye sent a smiling yellow bean man, "I can't say much about your family."
"There's a five-hour time difference between Africa and China. I'm still at work, so it's not convenient for me to talk to you. Let's talk later."
"Hey, don't go yet." Gu Chenfeng was holding back his laughter so hard that he felt like dying. "Is the second brother in the company? Tell him that I haven't seen him for a long time and I miss him so much."
"I'm afraid that when we meet again, he'll be so tanned that I won't be able to tell if we're the same race!"
"Manager Ye!"
"Take a close-up photo of my second brother for me to enjoy."
Another breathy voice uttered: "Manager Ye???"
The other party probably blocked him.
Gu Chenfeng shook his head, disappointed.
…
The entire fairy mountain is shrouded in mist. The Moon-Watching Peak, Zixiao Palace, Refining Peak... and so on, a total of ninety-eight mountain palaces are hidden in it, looming, one connected to the other. Only when you arrive there, can you experience the grandeur of the fairy mountain firsthand.
Su Lianyi was sleeping soundly on the bed one second and appeared in the fairy mountain the next second.
Looking down carefully, she saw that she was wearing the attire of a direct disciple of Xianshan. Fortunately, it was not her sexy pajamas, otherwise it would be so embarrassing.
But she didn't wash her face or brush her teeth, so she didn't look very good.
Across the street was a shimmering lake, and on a huge rock were carved a few large characters: Fairy Grass Garden.
The Fairy Herb Garden is the territory of the disciples of Danfeng. Various spiritual trees, herbs and flowers grow in an intricate network there. It can be said that it is the place with the most comprehensive collection of medicinal herbs in the entire world of immortal cultivation, except for the Fairy Medicine Mansion which specializes in making elixirs.
There are not too many rules in the Danxiu Sect, and anyone who is a disciple of the Immortal Mountain can enter.
Although Su Lianyi grew up in the fairy mountain, she practiced talismans and was not very interested in refining pills. Therefore, if you count carefully, she has hardly been here many times.
She walked to the river and looked at her own shadow quietly.
This time he is not a little bun, but looks like an adult. He looks good, but there is a little eye boogers in the corners of his eyes.
Grass, a kind of plant.
She quickly squatted down, and while no one was paying attention, she scooped up the clear lake water with both hands and quickly washed her face.
“Hey hey hey!”
A somewhat old voice rang out: "This is the Fairy Herb Garden, not your backyard, my friend! Take a small step back, it's a big step for civilization. You're stepping on my trumpet creeper!"
Su Lianyi shuddered and moved her shoes away without leaving a trace.
Sure enough, I found a leaf where I had just stepped on, which had been stepped on by someone.
She thought it was the manager of Xiancao Garden and felt a little guilty. She looked left and right but didn't see anyone.
The voice said dissatisfiedly again: "Look up, I am here!"
"This young man is too careless. This immortal is not a human." He was silent for a moment, then changed his words: "It is indeed not a human, but a sacred tree!"
Su Lianyi looked in the direction of the sound and was almost blinded by the 24k titanium alloy dog eyes.
There are nine suns hanging on the lush branches of the sacred tree. Fortunately, the old man hid it well, otherwise I would have been blinded when I came in.
The sacred tree twisted its branches and said proudly, "You've never seen it? That's right!"
"I am the last Fusang tree in the world. You look so young. Have you heard of the legend of Fusang? The nine suns are all my little brothers."
Su Lianyi: ...
Of course she had heard of it. This hibiscus tree had been growing in the Fairy Grass Garden for tens of thousands of years. It was said that the human form it had cultivated into was an old man who seemed to be extremely wise and experienced. Many novice alchemists liked to listen to his lectures.
I didn't expect that he was such an old naughty boy, so arrogant despite his age.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Fusang yelled again, "Watch your step, that's my little granddaughter, Trumpet Creeper!"
"You little friend, you are too careless." Fusang held Lingxiao with its branches and leaves, feeling very distressed.
Su Lianyi looked around carefully and found that there was indeed a trumpet creeper under the hibiscus tree.
Trumpet creeper uses aerial roots to cling to other things. It is strong in nature, likes warmth and prefers places with plenty of sunshine.
It seems that this trumpet creeper grows on the hibiscus, and the hibiscus contains nine suns, and the sunshine is warm, which is exactly what the trumpet creeper likes.
But this one looks small and seems to be undernourished. The only small flower it has bloomed is trying hard to drill into the root of the hibiscus. Could it be a social phobia among flowers?
Su Lianyi was silent.
Seeing that she was staring at Ling Xiao, Fusang raised the branches and said, "She is timid, so please don't bully her. But in the fairy grass garden, with this fairy here, no flowers or grass dares to treat Ling Xiao badly."
"My dear friend, I see that you two are of similar age, perhaps we can become friends?"
Fusang had been growing in the Immortal Grass Garden for ten thousand years, and had been supported by the disciples of the Immortal Mountain. He naturally had a sense of trust in the people of the Immortal Mountain, and he kept chattering, "This Immortal is planning to teach Ling Xiao how to practice cultivation. Do you want to come and listen to the class?"
"Oh, I forgot to introduce Ling Xiao. She has a name. I named her Weiwei."
Su Lianyi paused and looked straight at Ling Xiao: "Weiwei?"
