In other words, we can’t make a move on Xing Wenming for the ti being.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Qianghai imdiately cursed under his breath.
Opposite him, Yu Shuo, who was having a al, explained to Gu Jin: "Master, Xing Wenming’s daughter is in our school, her na is Xing Ying."
Gu Jin is his master, and from today’s events, it’s clear that the Yu Family is thoroughly tied to his master. He felt it was his duty to inform her of these matters.
This is information known by the upper echelons of power in Wanhai City, and he believes that one day his master will reach that level too, depending solely on her desires.
So understanding these things causes no harm.
While eating, Gu Jin was astonished by Yu Shuo’s revelation.
So Xing Ying is the daughter of the mastermind behind the conspiracy against the Yu Family.
This really is... birds of a feather flock together.
Gu Jin showed interest in continuing the conversation, and she asked Yu Shuo: "What about the Ke Family? The rumor in school is that Ke Haii’s father is political rivals with your dad, is that true?"
When asked about this, Yu Shuo found it hard to answer, and his brow furrowed slightly as he looked across the table at his father.
The adults opposite had already stopped talking when they started their conversation.
Seeing that his son didn’t know how to respond, Yu Qingli spoke up: "Although the Ke Family and the Yu Family are at odds, it’s only because we can’t reach a consensus in decision-making, but this is all on the surface. Behind the scenes, we don’t interfere with each other and don’t resort to those lowly tactics."
Implying it’s not a life-or-death situation.
Gu Jin nodded, indicating she understood.
Then the conversation turned to Yu Shuo’s two good brothers, Yuan Shangwei and Jiang Hanyi. The three of them have been friends since childhood.
Yuan Shangwei’s father is a leader of a key organization in Wanhai City, an important ally of Yu Qingli in the city.
Jiang Hanyi’s family has business ties with Qiu Qianghai. When it cos to wealth, if the Jiang Family ranks second in Wanhai, no one dares to take the first place.
This shows their imnse financial power.
Yu Shuo softly told Gu Jin: "Master, the Jiang Family and the Ke Family have an arranged marriage."
Thinking of the school rumors, Gu Jin raised her eyebrows: "Is it Jiang Senior and Ke Senior?"
"Yes, their marriage was arranged when they were young."
Gu Jin thought of the school gossip, it seems there’s no smoke without fire.
After dinner, everyone moved to the dining room, and the Yu Family’s servants served so fruit.
While Gu Jin was eating fruit, the old master went upstairs and ca down with a ten-centiter thick book, chronicling the millennia-old evolution of cultivators, and placed it before Gu Jin.
"Miss Gu, you can take this book ho and read it at your leisure."
Looking at such a thick book in front of her, Gu Jin felt a bit overwheld.
The old master had a very earnest expression, so she slowly reached out to accept the book, "Then, I’ll take it ho and read it slowly." The smile at the corner of her mouth was sowhat strained.
As for how much she can read, she didn’t know.
Gu Jin put the book she received into her backpack and noticed that her phone, tossed into the bag, was constantly lighting up.
When she picked up the phone, she saw that the incoming call was from an unknown number.
After putting the book into the bag, she casually pressed the answer button on her phone.
"Thank heavens, Gu Jin, you finally answered! Qiaolan and Xing Ying have left! I heard they were going to teach her a lesson today, and now I can’t find Qiaolan. What should I do? Will she be in trouble?"
Hu Yue’s anxious voice ca through the phone.
The usually timid-sounding girl now sounded full of urgency.
After hearing the other party’s words, Gu Jin furrowed her brows.
She didn’t expect that Ma Qiaolan still went with Xing Ying and the others.
