Indeed, the mood of the entire Gu family was much lower than usual. Normally, everyone would be chatting and laughing about dinner, but now, everyone, even Meimei, was frowning and sighing.
When the old man asked her question, Meimei raised her head, but ultimately remained silent and lowered her head again.
It was the second master of the Gu family who spoke first:
"Dad, brother, did you already know?" he asked.
"What do you know?" Dean Gu asked back, picking up some food with his chopsticks.
Uncle Gu put down his chopsticks, and the stool he was sitting on quickly moved to stand next to his elder brother:
"Brother, you must have known all along, I guarantee it!"
Who is the eldest brother?
How could Dean Gu, a man of such stature, really know nothing?
Not to mention his own grandfather, who probably knows even more than his elder brother!
It has to be said, Uncle Gu is truly—intelligent!
That's right. After all, he's lived in the Gu family for decades, most of his life, so he must know his family members well.
Gu Beiwang ate calmly, and after a while, he looked at his younger brother beside him after he finished swallowing:
"If you don't explain, how can I know? Am I a tapeworm in your stomach?"
Haha, speaking of roundworms, you know me better than roundworms, okay?
Of course, Uncle Gu wouldn't reveal all his thoughts, but since he needed to gather information, he'd better hold back for now.
"What could possibly happen? Lots of people outside know about it now, they're saying, saying..." She spoke while cautiously observing her grandfather's expression.
"Heh, what else could it be? It's that great benefactor our dad's always told us about since we were kids. I think their family... made such a commotion this afternoon, brother, don't tell me you didn't know, I don't believe it at all!"
Movement? 8090 Chinese
The old man, with his sharp ears, heard the word and was momentarily shocked, but quickly came to terms with it.
After that phone call, shouldn't we have guessed it sooner?
How could someone who holds a position but fails to perform their duties and instead does things that are shameful and immoral not be discovered?
Now that they've been discovered, the response will undoubtedly be swift and decisive. It's impossible to allow them to cause any further trouble, given their extremely high status; if they were to do something, it would be difficult to back down.
The old man composed himself and tapped his bowl with his chopsticks:
"Don't talk about these things at home. Second son, if you're not going to eat, then leave."
In special times, it's best not to discuss these things.
The Gu family's previous schemes against them haven't been completely resolved yet, and who knows if they'll be caught out by someone else.
However, the Gu family's foundation is not something that can be easily tripped up by others; otherwise, it would be impossible for the whole family to be sitting at home and having a peaceful meal at this time.
After being warned by his own father, Gu Lao Er naturally dared not cause any more trouble. He pouted and moved the chair he was sitting on back to its original position.
After taking a few bites, Grandpa Gu put down his chopsticks. Suddenly realizing these things, how could he possibly eat?
"Eldest brother, second brother, and second brother's wife."
When the old man suddenly called out names, Dean Gu and Meimei and her husband immediately put down their bowls and chopsticks:
"Dad, what is it?"
The fact that the old man could be so serious and solemn at the dinner table must mean he's no ordinary person.
Listen to the old man; you can't go wrong.
Everyone's gotten used to it.
But the old man didn't say anything else, just some very ordinary instructions:
“These days, our family members are staying home as much as possible. We don’t go out for walks or gatherings unless necessary.”
