Chapter 975 The trap set by the Fifth Elder Gu

Shuzhi was very frank. After all, it was a fact that the Third House and the First House had not gotten along before, and it was normal for them to find ways to deal with each other.

"This recording was left by the illegitimate child. He was afraid that the Fifth Elder would default on his debts, and he was also afraid that the Fifth Elder would kill people to silence them. I used some tricks to get this recording from him."

Gu Shuzhi said and looked at Gu Zhaoming, "Uncle, do you believe what I said now?"

In fact, he originally planned to use this recording to cause a quarrel between Gu Zhaoming and the Fifth Elder, and then he would benefit from it.

But now that the First House has such a close relationship with the Xiao family, and Gu Zhaoming has his two daughters, Gu Jin and Gu Yang, to help him, their Third House has no chance of winning at all.

So he decided to take the recording to negotiate with Gu Zhaoming.

Gu Zhaoming said in a deep voice: "Send the recording to me, I will do what I promised you."

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Gu Shuzhi sent the recording to Gu Zhaoming and then left.

After he left, Gu Pei asked: "Is it really the Fifth Elder? Why did he do that?"

Gu Zhaoming remained silent. He had always trusted and been close to the Fifth Elder, and it was obvious that he had suffered a great blow.

"It should be to get Dad back to Beijing." Gu Yang had guessed this possibility, but she thought it would be done by Grandpa Gu, but she didn't expect it to be done by the Fifth Elder.

I just don't know if Grandpa Gu knew about this.

After returning to the Gu family's old house.

Gu Zhaoming called the Fifth Elder.

When the Fifth Elder came, he was smiling as usual, and looked very kind and gentle.

"Zhao Ming, how come you have time to ask me to come here today? Did something happen in the family?"

After the fifth elder came in, he saw that Gu Zhaoming's family were all there, and they did not welcome him as warmly as usual. Instead, they were a little silent. His heart skipped a beat, "What happened? Why don't they say anything?"

Gu Zhaoming played the recording he got from Gu Shuzhi for him.

The smile on the Fifth Elder's face gradually disappeared. "You know everything."

Gu Zhaoming raised his eyes to look at him with a complicated expression. "Uncle Five, why?"

The Fifth Elder sat there and smiled dejectedly. "Why? Zhaoming, didn't you guess it all? Uncle Five has always wanted you to go home. You are the heir designated by the old lady. You are the only one in the Gu family who can shoulder the family responsibility.

But for so many years, no matter how Uncle Five persuaded you, you were unwilling to come back. Uncle Five is old and he may leave at any time. I really have no patience."

Gu Zhaoming clenched his fists, suppressing his anger. "So you hurt my wife and daughter just to force me to return to Beijing? But my wife almost died on the operating table!"

Whenever he thought of the car accident, he felt terrified.

The fifth elder was silent for a moment, "I'm sorry, Zhaoming, Xueling. The casualties of the car accident were beyond my expectations. I have tried my best to reduce the impact, but I didn't expect it to cause such a tragedy."

His original intention was to attack Gu Yang and Gu Jin, to make them slightly injured, so that they could not take the last college entrance examination, or to affect their last exam, to provoke hatred between Gu Zhaoming and Gu Zhaoan, Gu Zhaoye and the old lady, so that he would return to Beijing for revenge, seize power, and become the head of the Gu family.

Gu Yang and Gu Jin had excellent grades, and even if they did not take the last exam, they should be able to get into a good school, and even if they failed, they could still get good grades by repeating a year.

But he didn't expect the car to suddenly lose control. Ruan Xueling was hit and seriously injured while trying to protect her daughter. She is in critical
