After finishing the call, Gu Beiwang walked back to his seat, his face expressionless, and calmly began to speak:
"I heard everything. Go back and pack your things. If nothing unexpected happens, we'll leave tomorrow."
Seeing that they had actually booked the train tickets, worry was evident in the eyes of both couples, especially the man beside them, who seemed even more silent...
Leaving Kyoto at this time was indeed a wise decision.
but...
Are you really leaving?
The Gu family is currently in its most unstable period. Even with Commander Gu Beiwang in charge, there's no guarantee that no accidents will happen.
Uncle Gu is just a businessman and can't be of much help in politics, so only Gu Ziling is still of some use.
The Gu family is so large, and now only two people are left to shoulder the burden; it's a bit...
The couple were now on the same page, and Yingying looked at her husband, wanting to confirm his true thoughts.
To go or not to go?
In fact, many things don't necessarily need to be explained.
For example, recently, the man beside me has visibly softened his resistance to Gu Jia.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible to live in the old house for so long.
Ultimately, who would harbor such hatred for their own family?
Someone once said: "The man with the most resolute appearance has the softest heart!"
This man's heart is probably not at peace; he's likely even more conflicted than I am!
Who is Gu Beiwang?
Having risen to the position of army commander at the age of less than fifty through sheer ability, he naturally possesses sharp insight and can see what the young couple is thinking.
cough.
"You don't need to worry. The Gu family isn't as fragile as you think. Right now, no one dares to really do anything to the Gu family."
They still have a lot to do.
I'm relieved to have you all looking after the old man.
At that time, it won't just be the old man who's a national treasure, but also that person from the Ye family.
We had to take all necessary precautions to prevent any mishaps along the way.
Gao Dan slowly stood up and replied in a low voice, "Okay, I understand."
Yingying then stood up and smiled at her father-in-law, saying:
"Sir, please rest assured, we will take good care of the two gentlemen."
Gu Beiwang nodded, his solemn face now softening into a smile: "Yes, I believe in your abilities."
After several incidents, Gu Beiwang was no fool; he was aware of his son's and daughter-in-law's capabilities.
This couple may seem harmless at first glance, but in reality, they're playing dumb to outsmart each other!
Especially his daughter-in-law; it's safe to say that Gu Beiwang has never seen any other lady in the Kyoto social circle with such capabilities as her daughter-in-law.
However, although everyone knows this, they usually don't say it out loud; it's just an unspoken understanding.
Keep a low profile and deliver the most fatal blow to the enemy in a special moment!
Oh dear~
Was I praised?
Well, I don't think anyone dislikes being praised, right?
The couple didn't stay in the study for long and soon went downstairs.
...
Downstairs, the little one was being forcibly held by Gu Ziling, lying there like a salted fish, unable to move at all.
When his gaze fell upon the two figures descending the stairs, his eyes lit up, and he shouted loudly at them:
"Mommy, Daddy, save Tuanzi!"
Gu Ziling, who had her back to the stairs, only turned her head to see the person coming down after hearing the little one's shouts. At the same time, she pinched the soft little bottom several times.
"You little rascal, go ahead and scream, no one will save you no matter how much you scream!" he threatened viciously.
