"Um... I really don't know. Otherwise, come back to the office with me and ask your older cousin for confirmation?"
Zhao Shuai never cared about family matters, and he would never inquire about them for no reason.
The heir of the Zhao family was decided from the birth of Zhao Gao, Zhao Shuai's older brother. Naturally, Zhao Gao was in charge of all matters of the Zhao family.
Gu Yujin didn't refuse: "Okay!" He agreed immediately.
That's all we can do now.
Otherwise, with nowhere else to go, it seems the only option is to seek help from her half-brother, Gao Dan. However, Gu Yujin currently prefers to die rather than do that.
Along the way, Zhao Shuai was greeted by several groups of people from the institute coming out of the cafeteria. He responded to each of them, while Gu Yujin's face was filled with impatience, but he didn't urge her any further.
Finally, when I arrived at the office, Wen Mu wasn't there; he must have gone back to his dorm for a lunch break.
"Sit down, would you like something to drink?"
"I'm not drinking anymore."
What time is it now? Who has time to eat and drink?
But Zhao Shuai still poured two glasses of water for him, handing one to his little cousin and drinking the other himself.
Everything was poured, and Gu Yujin could only take the water glass, but still didn't drink it.
Zhao Shuai naturally understood that his younger cousin was very anxious. He took a couple of sips of water, which was boiling water and very hot, and put it on the table to cool down. Then he picked up the phone and dialed a number.
Beep beep beep...
After ringing a few times, the call was finally answered, and Zhao Shuai quickly spoke up:
"Brother, it's me."
"Little Handsome? Why are you calling me in such a hurry? What's up?"
Clearly, everyone here is the type to only call when there's a reason, and they all understand that unless there's a specific reason, they wouldn't get through on the phone.
Zhao Shuai didn't feel embarrassed at all about being teased by his own brother.
"Brother, I have something serious to ask you."
Since it was a serious matter, Zhao Gao's tone became much more formal on the phone:
"Go ahead and ask."
"Hey, brother, I heard something happened to Auntie?"
It's best not to hold back with your older brother. After all, he's a few years older and has been with you for a few more years. Although you were born in the same batch and are both capable of scheming, the younger brother, who was born a few years later, may sometimes be less capable.
Sure enough, Zhao Gao paused for a moment on the other end of the phone before speaking again:
"Is Ozu next to you?"
Wow, does it have clairvoyance?
"Yes, yes."
"Then I'll get straight to the point, you can put it on speakerphone."
"OK."
After his brother finished speaking, Zhao Shuai pressed the speakerphone button on the landline with his free finger.
“My aunt does have some issues, but she doesn’t want us to get involved, so we don’t really know what happened.”
Unexpectedly, something really did happen?
Zhao Shuai's attitude has become much more correct:
"Who is the rival?" he asked.
So this is the difference between an old fox and a newbie. Zhao Shuai could directly ask his brother about the opponent after he finished speaking, while Gu Yujin remained in a state of doubt from beginning to end.
He still needs more experience.
"The Qian family!" Zhao Gao's voice came through the phone.
"That Qian family?" Zhao Shuai couldn't help but rub his ears, wondering if he had misheard.
"You mean the Qian family? The one you're imagining!"
Zhao Shuai's heart skipped a beat, his face filled with shock. To be fair, Zhao Shuai and Qian You of the Qian family were good friends.
How exactly did my aunt get involved with the Qian family?
This is a question that everyone, not just Zhao Shuai, is extremely curious about.
