Gu Hongwei, the head of the Gu family, one of the eight great families in Beijing, celebrated his 80th birthday and invited many guests to the Gu family's old mansion.

All private roads around the old house are closed to traffic and security is tight.

A large number of media were waiting at the intersection, and all they could see were luxury cars and supercars. Most of the guests coming and going were powerful and wealthy people, politicians and celebrities.

Outsiders see the prosperity and envy, but only the Gu family knows that the prosperity is not as great as when the old patriarch was still alive.

Gu Zhaoming's family of six sat in two cars and drove towards the old house. After parking the cars at the designated location, they walked into the old house.

After getting off the car, looking at the old house that was gradually becoming the same as in his memory, Gu Zhaoming's eyes revealed a bit of nostalgia and he couldn't help but sigh softly.

When people reach middle age, their state of mind is no longer the same as it used to be.

When I ran away from home in anger due to my youth, all I was fighting for was a breath of fresh air.

If it were today, he would probably have a better way of handling it.

Gu Yang saw the sadness in Gu Zhaoming's eyes, "Dad, do you regret it?"

Do you regret giving up the position of heir out of anger? Gu Zhaoming rubbed her head and said with a smile: "If you regret it, you won't meet your mother."

Now that he has a lovely wife and children by his side, he is already very content.

Everything he does now is not just for revenge, nor is it just to prevent those two stupid brothers from hurting his family, but also to have stronger strength to protect this home.

As children grow up, they have too many secrets. Behind those invisible surprises, there are also invisible dangers.

Although the Gu family is in decline, it is still one of the eight wealthy families.

Gu Zhaoming's eyes became darker and his steps became more determined.

Gu Zhaoming hadn't returned to his old house for twenty years, so the security guards at the old house naturally didn't recognize him.

Fortunately, the fifth elder had given instructions in advance, so Gu Zhaoming and his family could pass directly after identifying themselves.

The Gu family is a century-old prestigious family. The courtyard is deep, simple and solemn, and the pavilions and waterside terraces are elegant and picturesque at every step.

Such a large mansion may not be available even if you have money nowadays, and it is located in a prime location in the capital.

Before I even reached the banquet hall, I ran into an acquaintance.

"Why are you here?"

Ye Qingzi didn't expect to meet Gu Yang, Gu Jin and others in the Gu family's old house, and her brows couldn't help but frown.

The Gu family is one of the eight wealthy families in Beijing, an existence that the Jincheng Gu family cannot even approach.

How could Gu Yang and Gu Jin's family appear in such an occasion? Could it be that the Jincheng Gu family is a branch of the Beijing Gu family?

No, it's impossible. When she investigated the Gu sisters, she also checked the deeds of the Jincheng Gu family in the past ten years, and found no contact between the Jincheng Gu family and the Beijing Gu family.

The Gu family was not surprised to meet Ye Qingzi here.

There was a girl of about eighteen or nineteen years old next to Ye Qingzi.

The girl was wearing an elegant and fresh light green evening gown, her hair reached her waist, her makeup was delicate and elegant, her manners were quiet, and she looked like a lady from a noble family.

She took Ye Qingzi's arm and asked in confusion: "Sister Qingzi, what's wrong? Do you know them?"

"I know them. They're from a nouveau riche family in Jincheng." Ye Qingzi said with contempt.

The girl next to her frowned slightly.

Ye Qingzi glanced at Gu Yang and the others with contempt, "Shuxue, your birthday party is too shabby. How come all kinds of people are allowed in?"

Gu Zhaoming's face darkened, "Ms. Ye, please be more respectful when you speak."

Gu Pei, who had a bad temper, was immediately furious. "You are the one who is in charge. This is my father's home. What's wrong with us coming in for the banquet?"

"You said this is your home?" Ye Qingzi was immediately amused. She grabbed Gu Shuxue's hand and shook it, saying with a smile, "Then do you know who she is?"
