Qi Jing didn't quite understand, "Why do you think so?"
"Canaries are raised in captivity. How many people would be willing to be kept in captivity like a canary?"
Qi Jing tilted his head, "That makes sense."
Gu Zhou just smiled and pulled him to continue hiding in the corner to join in the fun. There were many people at the banquet, and the party officially started before they finished eating the melon.
As today's protagonist, Gu Mo is dressed very handsomely, but he is a little young and lacks aura.
However, someone else made up for this point. Gu Zhou looked at Qi Mo who was following Gu Mo and couldn't help but click his tongue twice, "This is an impatient declaration of sovereignty."
"They are a perfect match." Qi Jing praised sincerely. Gu Mo is very handsome, with a somewhat childish face, while Qi Mo is much more mature. There is also a height difference between the two, but they look inexplicably well-matched when standing together.
Many people looked over and whispered about this. After all, Gu Mo was an adopted child of the Gu family, so why was he standing with Qi Mo?
However, such discussions did not last long. After the dance started, Qi Mo directly extended his hand to Gu Mo and pulled him into the dance floor to dance a duet.
Qi Jing frowned, feeling strange again, "Why do we have to dance?"
"Second brother added it at the last minute." Gu Zhou quietly complained to Qi Jing, "Didn't second brother want to wait for him? Even though it's almost time, he still has to defend his rights. And Gu Mo is an adopted son. Although a family recognition banquet was held, his status is still very embarrassing.
The second brother is the head of the Qi family. The two of them dancing together is enough to prove Gu Mo's status. This also determines the attitude of these people towards Gu Mo in the future. It can be regarded as another form of protection."
Qi Jing uttered an "oh" and couldn't help but praise Qi Mo, "It seems Qi Xiaomo is quite sensible. It's just a pity for Qi Xiaoshuo."
"There's no need to rush the eldest brother. Once Gu Mo's matter is settled, the second brother will have to go back to work at the company. Then the two brothers can sort it out on their own."
After Gu Zhou finished speaking, he pulled Qi Jing in and wanted to dance with Qi Jing so that everyone outside could see.
Qi Jing didn't know how to dance this at all. He was led by Gu Zhou and stepped on Gu Zhou's foot after just a few moves.
Qi Jing complained, "I already said I wouldn't do that."
"It's okay, just step on it." Gu Zhou hooked his waist, lowered his eyes and looked at Qi Jing's serious expression, always staring at the ground.
He smiled and asked him, "What do you plan to make public, little uncle?"
"Disclose what?"
"Engagement!" Gu Zhou pinched his waist, "I don't have a formal status yet."
Qi Jing thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait a little longer. Gu Xuanyi said he was waiting for something. When that happens, he will completely merge with you."
Gu Zhou probably understood what Qi Jing meant. Qi Jing liked him and Gu Xuanyi, and didn't want to be biased towards anyone. Qi Jing hadn't agreed to Gu Xuanyi at the beginning, so if he agreed to him now, Gu Xuanyi would definitely be jealous.
Qi Jing will only agree when they merge and become completely one.
Gu Zhou certainly respected Qi Jing's decision. He lowered his head and kissed Qi Jing on the forehead. "I'll listen to you."
Qi Jing raised his head and smiled at him, then leaned over and kissed Gu Zhou on the chin, as if it was a matter of reciprocity.
Such an intimate action indeed confirmed the engagement between the two, and Qi Mo and Gu Mo's dance also attracted gossip.
Were the Qi and Gu families trying to strengthen their relationship? Otherwise, how could one explain the Qi family's head dancing with the Gu family's adopted son?
Or did the Qi family let the Gu family adopt Gu Mo in order to elevate his status?
Of course, these are just speculations, and no one would dare to ask for the truth. The only thing they are sure of is that the adopted son of the Gu family is no ordinary person. Not only does he have the support of the Gu family, but he also has the Qi family. He cannot be bullied or provoked.
After the dance ended, Qi Jing hid in the corner again. He stared at Gu Mo in the banquet. It was the first time for Gu Mo to attend such a banquet and he was the protagonist. Gu Mo behaved a little restrained, but Qi Mo was with him throughout the whole process. His every word and action guided Gu Mo, and slowly the restraint disappeared.
Qi Jing leaned on the guardrail and swung his legs, then turned his head and saw Gu Bin sneaking around.
He nudged Gu Zhou beside him and said, "He's having a tryst with his girlfriend."
Gu Zhou looked over and saw Gu Bin sneaking into the garden. Gu Zhou made a quick decision and dragged Qi Jing to watch the fun.
The two hid behind the flowers, while Gu Bin and his girlfriend sat on a bench. They held hands and leaned against each other, and their words were so sweet and sticky.
Gu Zhou also just saw Gu Bin’s girlfriend clearly. She was probably not from the same circle. Although she was wearing a dress, her temperament was very ordinary. It was obvious that she was not a lady from a famous family. She even felt a little inferior.
Gu Bin must have brought his girlfriend here to see the world, and since the girl wasn't used to it, Gu Bin sneaked out to accompany her.
Gu Zhou looked at the girl's face carefully. She came from an average family and really liked Gu Bin. There was a strong bond between them, but judging from their faces, they would not be together in the future.
He couldn't tell any more, so he could only ask Qi Jing quietly, "What do you think of this girl?"
Qi Jing leaned close to Gu Zhou's ear and asked, "Is Gu Bin's mother very strong?"
"You ask this, is it because of Aunt San that the two of them didn't get together?"
Qi Jing blinked his eyes. "Anyway, I saw that girl was badly injured, and it wasn't Gu Bin who hurt her."
"Wealthy marriages are all about matching social status. Unless you have your own abilities, it's hard to resist the marriage arranged by your family." Gu Zhou has seen many such cases. Wealthy marriages are based on family interests. Few couples are in love, and most of them just play around with each other.
Qi Jing said "oh" and asked him, "Do you want to care?"
"Let's wait and see. The third brother isn't such an irresponsible person. Nothing will happen in the short term. We'll see what happens after the truth is revealed."
After saying this, Gu Zhou pulled Qi Jing away. He really couldn't stand Gu Bin's love style, which was so annoying. If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would not be able to resist and beat Gu Bin up.
Qi Jing couldn't stand it either. He was just dragged out to join in the fun and see what Gu Bin's girlfriend was like.
As soon as they returned to the banquet, Qi Shuo stopped them, took them upstairs, and closed the door before saying, "We were a step too late. The person has been taken away. The situation is a bit dangerous. The other party has a gun."
That thing is really dangerous. Gu Zhou's face turned cold when he heard this. "How sure are you?"
"Seventy percent, but Jiang Mushen is a little upset right now." Qi Shuo rubbed his brow impatiently, "That person is very important to him. I heard that he saved his life. If something happens, it will be very troublesome. My people dare not move rashly."
Gu Zhou probably understood, "My uncle and I will go over there."
Qi Shuo frowned, but before he could say anything, Gu Zhou took out the invisibility talisman and the teleportation talisman and disappeared right in front of him.
Gu Zhou was on guard before Jiang Mushen left and threw a teleportation talisman on Jiang Mushen, which finally came in handy.
The two of them held hands and instantly arrived at an old warehouse. Because of the invisibility talisman, there was no commotion. Gu Zhou stared at the person lying on the ground. It was Jiang Mushen who came into the warehouse alone and confronted the kidnappers.
