Chapter 84 Family Banquet (Seeking Monthly Pass)(2/2)
"
Judging from the current situation in Nagano, the divided Gu family has gradually shown signs of decline.
Only by converging can we continue to secure our position as the number one store in Nagano.
And under this situation, even nominal unity is enough to form a "deterrence" to the other four families!
Especially...the Bai family!
For the old school, which has struggled to support itself for eight years, such a proposal is nothing short of a great good thing.
"It's just that Gu Lushen has a request."
The old man smiled and said, "He asked the Gu family to abolish the 'family head system'."
Gu Shen, who was listening in, had his eyes narrowed slightly.
"And Gu Lushen gave a... very reasonable explanation. Because of the [Apostle] battle in Dadu District, the Central Federation re-confirmed the survival status of Gu Changzhi in the Qing Tomb. If Gu Changzhi is still alive, then the guardian of the tomb has decided
The title of 'head of the family' seems ridiculous. No one except Gu Changzhi is qualified to be the real head of the Gu family."
Gu Nanfeng also agreed with this point.
Even if he cultivated to an extremely high level in Beizhou... he still couldn't compare with the former.
"And if Mr. Gu Changzhi is not... alive as the world expects, then the existence of the 'head of the family' will be meaningless. Because the 'fire' in the Qing Tomb will find its owner again."
Hearing this, Gu Nanfeng lowered his head silently.
He understood what Gu Lushen meant.
There is really no fault with this...the reason.
"I rejected him."
The old man looked at his grandnephew's expression and spoke softly.
Rejected... Gu Shen's eyes showed some surprise.
At this juncture... it takes a lot of courage to refuse to merge.
Gu Nanfeng raised his head in confusion: "Why...why?"
"Nodding, shaking your head, it's just a simple thing... Do you need a reason?"
The old man said calmly: "As for the name of 'Family Master', I know you used to not care much about it. You once wanted to throw it away, as far away as possible... But now you really want to hold on to it, wishing that the entire Snow Forbidden City knew that it belonged to you.
Your stuff."
"Humans are this kind of species. I used to be just like you."
"So...I'm very glad that you came back this time to take back what belongs to you."
Gu Qilin stood up, patted Gu Nanfeng's shoulder, and said: "There is a 'gift' here...I left it for you. Take a good look."
After getting up, he took out a small document bag and placed it in front of Gu Nanfeng.
The old man left the box.
Before passing by Gu Shen, he spoke softly and asked with a smile: "Are you full?"
Gu Shen was stunned and quickly wiped his mouth.
The old man nodded and said: "Since you are full... come out with me."
…
…
The top floor of Jiangbei Hotel.
The wind is a bit strong.
Thin snow is scattered in the air, and there are falling ice chips in the wind. If you breathe a little harder, white mist will come out.
The old man was standing on the top floor, looking at the Snow Forbidden City in the distance, the rows of old buildings, and the lights outlined a quiet and peaceful picture...
"It's your first time meeting, don't be nervous."
Gu Qilin spoke softly, trying to make his voice sound gentle.
It's just that the old man's aura and the murderous brows on his face make it hard not to be nervous.
"Those words just now... I will forget them." Gu Shen sighed softly and said, "The reason why you keep inviting me to this meal... I haven't figured it out yet."
Gu Qilin raised his eyebrows.
He said sincerely: "In fact, when we were eating... I sent a message to Gu Nanfeng and asked him to say something, but he refused, so this meal was very..."
"Serious." Gu Shen thought for a moment and said the word for him.
"Well..." The old man nodded.
The scene became frozen again.
Gu Shen didn't expect...it turned out that he was not the only one who wanted to say something at the dinner table.
"Don't forget these words. You can remember them and don't spread them around."
Gu Qilin spoke again and said: "Actually, it's not a secret. All of Nagano knows about the bad things about the Gu family... And when Nanfeng took the initiative to talk about the 'Guangming City', your acting skills were a bit poor."
Gu Shen blinked.
Isn't that the case?
My acting skills...have never failed so far.
"Brother Nanfeng said to me... you want to see me, not because I have a close relationship with Huazhi, nor because I am the inheritor of divination..." Gu Shen asked seriously: "If it's just an ordinary meal
I won’t think too much about the meal. It’s just that after today’s meal, I learned so much news that I really can’t sleep well.”
"Really?" the old man said with a smile, "I think you enjoyed the food very well, and you were reluctant to leave just now."
Gu Shen felt helpless and asked cautiously: "In other words, you don't care about my identity... You just want to tell the people outside that you and I have met and talked."
It's very windy on the top floor.
There are also many wind children.
"How dare you look directly at me with those eyes?" The old man said calmly: "Those are the tricks of the younger generation... Do I need to use these tricks? Compared with the previous genius of the Gu family... You, still have
A little worse."
Gu Shen choked suddenly.
"If you have to ask why..."
Gu Qilin smiled gently and said, "Both of us have a surname of Gu. I like you more, so I came to treat you to this family dinner."
