The old man had no intention of saying anything more. Gu Ziling and her uncle exchanged a glance, one shrugging and the other helpless.
Oh well, a fox will always show its tail eventually.
The uncle and nephew were about to go back to their room to rest, but the old man insisted that the eldest son stay.
"Beiwang, wait a moment."
"oh."
............
When only the old man and Commander Gu and his son remained: "Ahem, were you involved in what that kid from the Tang family did this time?"
“They don’t need it, Dad. Don’t underestimate that young man from the Tang family. He’s definitely resourceful.”
"Just like his grandfather!"
"Pretty much, but people who are this intelligent usually don't have a good end."
That statement makes some sense.
The Tang family has never lacked intelligent people, but everyone can see what their fate will be.
So, it's better for people to be a little foolish and silly, rather than always appearing so smart. If you're too smart, people might perceive you as a threat.
"Well, this matter shouldn't affect our Gu family, but if anything happens in the future, remember to let the old man know. You guys scared him so badly that he had a heart attack."
Today, it's unlikely that anyone else could be as rational as the old man.
"I'm sorry, Dad."
Ultimately, it did affect the old man's 80th birthday, so this apology is only right.
"Hmm, I think it's not just you involved, Xiao Dan is too, right?"
"He didn't do anything; he just chose not to interfere."
"And you?"
"Me? I'm about the same."
"Alright, alright, go back and rest. I need to rest too, old man."
"Okay, Dad, you should get some rest."
............
When the couple returned to the Gu family home, only the nanny and the guard were still awake.
Where are my grandfather and the others?
"Young Master, the old master and the others have gone to rest. There's some food that's been kept warm in the kitchen for you. Let me go and bring it out for you."
Thank you.
Soon, the servants brought out the food: a pot of freshly cooked black-boned chicken soup, a plate of cold black fungus salad, a few kinds of pickled vegetables, and then a small steamer of rice.
It looks very appetizing.
The couple were really hungry. They barely ate anything at noon before being called away. They were busy all afternoon, and by dinner time, they were still at the funeral home. How could they have time to eat?
Fortunately, the couple ate quite well and didn't wolf down their food, but the food on the table was quickly emptied.
"My stupid son seems to be away again."
"We've almost finished eating," Ye Wanying suddenly said.
Commander Gao glanced around and said, "Hmm, they might be going to Xi Siyu's place."
No, actually... This time, I didn't go with Xi Siyu, but instead went to the Ye family, which neither of them expected!
Forehead!
The couple were taken aback when they heard the news from the guard.
"Honey, should we bring her back?"
"He would have come back long ago if he wanted to." Indeed, no one can force that little guy to come back.
But why go to the Ye family?
Why is it so hard to understand what this kid does?
........
Well, actually, I originally planned to go to Xi Siyu's house, but when I passed by the Ye family, I suddenly ran into Old Master Ye who was returning from outside, so I had to say hello.
Then, the little man was tricked into coming to Grandpa Ye's house.
"Grandpa Ye, do you really have a talking bird?"
The old man grunted, "Of course, come here, I'll show you. Don't think I'm lying."
