Unfortunately, there is no evidence for what they are doing now, so they can only investigate for the time being.
Chu Yiting turned his gaze and looked coldly at Senior Brother Lin, "Have you sent anyone to investigate the Gu family yet?"
"Yes, we investigated, but the Gu family seems quite normal. So, I'd like to ask what you know about the Gu family?"
Because the investigation yielded no results, Senior Brother Lin approached the three Chu brothers to inquire about the Gu family's situation.
Although I know that the Chu family and the Gu family are now on opposite sides, they were, after all, in-laws for decades, weren't they?
Chu Yifan was surprised and incredulous upon hearing this, "Normal? How could it be normal?"
Senior Brother Lin shrugged, looking helpless. "That's why I came to you. How much do you know about the Gu family!"
What they didn't know was that Liu Zixing had made many preparations to conceal his whereabouts, so naturally he wouldn't let the Taoists discover him.
Moreover, Liu Zixing has now stolen the luck of the male and female protagonists of the novel. With their luck as cover, Senior Brother Lin and the others, whose cultivation is not as strong as Tang Bao's, naturally cannot detect anything.
Liu Zixing easily manipulated Senior Brother Lin, making him suspicious.
If it weren't for the evidence that included the Gu family and the relationship between them and the Chu family, even Senior Brother Lin would have doubted his own guesses.
Chu Yiting kept his hand on the armrest, tapping his fingers lightly, and said coldly, "We only know the information from before, and we didn't know they would be related to evil cultivators. However, now that you mention it, I also find something strange about the Gu family!"
Upon hearing Chu Yiting's words, Senior Brother Lin immediately sat up straight, his face filled with excitement and anticipation. "What's wrong?"
"Last time, when Tang Bao encountered human traffickers, it implicated Chu Tianshun's family..."
Chu Yiting then brought up the incident where almost the entire Chu Tianshun family was sent to prison last time. Since Gu Ying was the mastermind behind this incident, her family, the Gu family, became the target of public criticism.
Therefore, the Gu family's stock experienced significant volatility and was likely to collapse during that period of turmoil. Chu Yiting was also involved in this, which was a deliberate act of revenge against the Gu family.
But then, for some unknown reason, the Gu family inexplicably resolved these crises, which was quite strange.
After Chu Yiting explained it this way, Chu Yixi also realized it.
"Now that you mention it, I've also realized that the Gu family has developed very rapidly in the last ten years or so, not just because of our Chu family, but also because of many other factors!"
Compared to Chu Yiting and Chu Yixi's clever minds, Chu Yifan, who only knew about games, looked completely bewildered. He scratched his head, racking his brains but still couldn't figure it out. "Really? Why don't I know anything about this?"
The two brothers, Chu Yiting and Chu Yixi, glanced at Chu Yifan with deep contempt in their eyes. Their two incredibly handsome and aloof faces both conveyed the message, "You're not my brother."
Although he couldn't match the intelligence of the Chu brothers, Chu Yifan was still a brother. He was smart enough to instantly understand the meaning behind his two older brothers' expressions, and his lips twitched slightly.
"Why are you looking at me like that? I really didn't know! I was just a child when those things happened!"
Yes, according to the timeline Chu Yiting and Chu Yixi mentioned, he should still be in school and going through his rebellious phase back then!
How could I possibly pay attention to so many other things, especially the affairs of a large family like the Gu family?
"That's true, you were always causing trouble back then!"
"Your mind is only on games, you don't care about anything else, so of course you wouldn't know!"
Chu Yifan felt like he was being manipulated by his two older brothers again, and he felt very frustrated and depressed.
Although Chu Yiting and the others were right, Chu Yifan would never admit it himself. In the end, Chu Yifan simply made a zipper gesture with his mouth and stopped talking.
Senior Brother Lin watched the way the three Chu brothers interacted with amusement, feeling that it was similar to their own.
However, now is not the time to watch these three brothers show off their brotherly love in front of him.
"Now that you've noticed something's wrong, we'll investigate!"
Chu Yiting nodded, deep in thought. "Yes, I'll also investigate the Gu family's former rivals! I've noticed that the families that used to oppose the Gu family seem to have all fallen from grace!"
Previously, due to the situation involving Chu Tianshun and his wife, I had conducted some investigations into the Gu family, as well as their rivals.
He had only glanced at the companies and families that opposed the Gu family before, and in that one glance, he only remembered some of the more famous companies and families with higher status than the Gu family.
After discovering that the Gu family had defeated them, those companies and families gradually declined and disappeared from the business world.
Although such things are quite normal in the business world, Chu Yiting felt very strange at the moment, as if something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Thinking about this, Chu Yiting felt it was necessary for him to investigate the Gu family further.
Senior Brother Lin clicked his tongue, feeling that he had wasted his time asking questions today. "It seems we need to investigate further! If you find anything amiss but can't take action yourself, you can contact me!"
But thinking about it, it makes sense. After all, before Tang Bao came home, the four brothers of the Chu family didn't believe in the existence of gods and ghosts. It's already quite good that they can accept it now.
They noticed the discrepancies in the investigation data in time, so they certainly wouldn't have speculated in a supernatural or mysterious direction.
What Senior Brother Lin said at the end was wrong; it was about mystical arts, which ordinary people couldn't interfere with or touch. So, going to them was the right thing to do.
Chu Yiting nodded. At this moment, he couldn't act recklessly and could only rely on Senior Brother Lin.
“Sure!” Chu Yiting then took out the Gu family’s invitation, a cold smile playing on his lips, and said casually, “The Gu family is holding a wedding soon, it’s Gu Ziming’s engagement, and they’ve sent us an invitation! I wasn’t planning on going, but it seems I’ll have to go!”
"We can let our junior sister go and take a look then!"
Senior Brother Lin finally revealed the main purpose of his visit to the Chu family: he wanted to ask his junior sister to come out of seclusion and help.
However, the three Chu brothers, who doted on their sister, objected almost without hesitation, "No, it's too dangerous!"
Senior Brother Lin was speechless. Did these three brothers have to protect Tang Bao so tightly?
His junior sister is no ordinary three- or four-year-old little girl!
Moreover, he sent Tang Bao there because he wanted Tang Bao to see for herself, which would be very helpful for him to understand the Gu family.
"Don't worry, Junior Sister is very capable. Besides, she might even be able to spot traces that I can't!"
