"Damn it, it must have been the Gu family who did it!"
"There's no proof that they tampered with the items we bought outside! I simply don't believe it!"
"I don't believe it either. Anyway, besides the Gu family, there's no one else involved in this!"
The business owners were all indignant. Even though these words came from the Chu family, they weren't fools. They quickly realized the Gu family's purpose.
After understanding the whole story, these CEOs were filled with rage and hatred towards the Gu family.
Mr. Xue frowned and revealed the chilling truth, "I heard from my wife and son that the fire at the Gu family banquet was actually started by the Gu family themselves!"
"Old Xue, what do you mean by that? The Gu family started the fire themselves? Why?"
Everyone looked at Xue's father with incomprehension and disbelief.
Mr. Xue set up a luck-changing spell at the Gu family's engagement banquet, but it was broken by Tang Bao's arrival. Fearing that they would find evidence, he simply set a fire to make them leave, so that their tricks would not be discovered.
Upon hearing Mr. Xue's explanation, the business owners all recalled the sudden fire at the engagement banquet.
This wasn't their first time visiting the Gu family, nor was it the first time the Gu family had hosted a banquet. How could such a basic mistake as a fire have occurred?
Therefore, upon hearing Xue's father's explanation, everyone immediately found the Gu family even more suspicious and became even more certain that the lucky charm was created by the Gu family.
The bosses were furious that their recent misfortunes were all because of Gu Jia.
"Damn it, it really was the Gu family who did it! Setting fires to drive people away, it's obviously a case of trying to cover something up!"
"I actually believed it was a real fire! Turns out they set it themselves!"
"If it weren't for Little Celestial Master Tang Bao breaking the luck-changing array set up by the Gu family first, our luck would probably have been sucked away long ago!"
"Hasn't our luck been drained away too? How dare they be so bold!"
"We're so unlucky right now, even if we all joined forces, we wouldn't be a match for the Gu family!"
"Shall we go ask the Chu family for help? Didn't they say that President Chu's sister, Little Celestial Master Tangbao, can help us? We can also join forces with the Chu family to deal with the Gu family!"
"Yes, I can give up all the profits from this attack on the Gu family. I must get revenge, and I must resolve my current unfortunate situation!"
Watching the business owners discussing begging Tang Bao, Mr. Xue felt his mouth grow even more bitter. The other business owners had no worries because they hadn't offended Tang Bao!
Back then, Tang Bao and Chu Yifan personally came to their home to help them solve their predicament.
However, because of his suspicious nature, he drove them away and offended the little Taoist master Tangbao who could have helped them.
Now, Mr. Xue is filled with immense regret; he is filled with remorse.
Shouldn't he have listened to his wife and son, gone to their house, knelt down and apologized, and offered his forgiveness?
It seemed that everyone noticed the change in Xue's father's aura and couldn't help but think of the rumors outside.
"Old Xue, are you going or not?"
"Yeah, I heard you chased away Little Celestial Master Tangbao last time!"
Although they are now in an alliance, they still can't help but tease Xue's father, finding his foolish behavior quite amusing.
Whether it's true or not, just believe it. After all, the situation is already terrible, so what's there to gamble on?
You actually dared to doubt Little Master Tangbao? You're really bold!
Mr. Xue was so angry at everyone's teasing that his face turned red. He was already filled with regret, and these people were still mocking him like this!
"You guys go ahead! I have something to do, I'm going home first!"
After finishing his sentence, Mr. Xue quickly got up and left.
Seeing Xue's father fleeing in disarray, everyone exchanged glances and couldn't help but laugh.
"Tsk, Lao Xue's brain is hopelessly stupid!"
"Although we are considered business adversaries with the Chu family, we still have to curry favor with Little Master Tangbao! How dare he offend her!"
"Tsk, I wonder if Lao Xue can get through this crisis this time!"
Although everyone is now in an alliance, there's a certain amount of schadenfreude in their hearts, and some even hope that the Xue family will fall because of this, giving them a chance to take over and make their own companies even stronger.
However, everyone is just thinking about it for now, since they still have a lot of problems that need to be solved first.
As for how to ask the Chu family for help from Tang Bao, they still need to discuss it further. After all, their relationship with the Chu family isn't very good, so they hope to succeed on the first try.
After a short rest, Gu Ziming left the Gu family home, abandoning the exhausted Lin Xinyi, and headed to the group's building to handle company matters.
The head of the Gu family has almost relinquished power, and Gu Ziming is going to take over all the work of the Gu Group today.
The first thing to deal with is the trouble and problems that arose when they were imprisoned in the Taoist sect recently.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Taoist sect had not provided enough evidence, they released them and issued a statement claiming that they had done nothing wrong, thus completely absolving themselves of any responsibility.
However, their announcement did not specify the details, but it at least reassured the shareholders who bought shares in their Gu Group. Nevertheless, some people still felt that there was no smoke without fire, and some took the opportunity to sell their shares now.
Of course, some people still feel that since he was acquitted, there must be no problem, and they can just pay more attention to him in the meantime.
Whether it was because Gu Ziming was truly exceptionally capable, or because he was the male protagonist in a novel and was destined for greatness, the Gu family's stock market, which was on the verge of collapse, was stabilized after he took charge of the company.
Meanwhile, the nine families—no, it should be the eight families excluding the Xue family—went together to visit the Chu family for help.
The heads of the eight families whose fortunes had been absorbed all came to the Chu family.
Yes, they came to the Chu family home, not to the Chu Group's company.
Only Tangbao can solve their problem, but Tangbao goes to kindergarten during the day and stays home at night.
So they all timed their visits to coincide with Tangbao and the others finishing their dinner.
They were wary of each other during the visit, but because Xue's father had offended Tang Bao, he didn't invite him.
"Tang Bao, the other eight family heads whose fortunes were drained have arrived. Do you want to see them?"
Tang Bao was sitting cross-legged on the carpet on the floor, having turned her gaze away from the cartoon, and looked up at Chu Yiting with curiosity. "Sure! But why are you so late? Tang Bao still wants to watch cartoons!"
Chu Yiting has already told her about this matter, and she can still help.
