Chapter 374
374 won’t just let it go like this
“as expected of the third young master of the shi family, you’re really bold.” Gu Zi sneered.
shi boyu looked up at him with a calm gaze.”Thank you for the compliment.”
Such an indifferent attitude, in the eyes of others, made it seem like he didn’t put Gu Zi in his eyes at all. Gu Zi’s face fiercely sank.
“You …”
Just as he was about to say something, Yu Wen, who was sitting beside him, pulled him back. He snorted coldly and his eyes turned sharp again.
“Third young master Shi is joking.” Yu Wen said.
“my brother and i are family, there’s no such thing as detaining him. at most, i’ll just keep him at home for a few days to discuss some things.”
as he spoke, he looked at su chen and smiled. ” you’re indeed my brother. even if you got lost at a young age, you could still grow to where you are today without my grandfather’s protection and cultivation. ” i’ve only left you at home for a few days, but you’ve already alarmed so many important people.”
Su chen knew very well that the reason Shi boyu had helped him was entirely because of Shi Yan.
Although he would occasionally go to the Shi family when he was young and knew Shi boyu, they were not really close. He was only familiar with Shi Yan, who often came to Su Yu to learn how to make medicinal herbs.
Whether he appreciated Shi boyu’s help or not was secondary, but at the very least, he shouldn’t drag Shi boyu down.
thus, he met yu wen’s gaze and said, ” “i’ve already said that i’m not your brother. does grandpa wen not understand human language? Since I’m not your brother, you’re not keeping me at home to discuss matters by trapping me in the original state.”
Yu Wen looked at him and sighed helplessly,”forget it, whatever brother says it is.”
“I’m actually very happy that third young master Shi can treat my brother as family and can’t bear to see my brother suffer. this trip is indeed to force my brother to stay at home. it’s only right for third young master shi to settle scores with me and yuan shi. after all, third young master shi is doing this for my brother.”
“The conditions here are simple and crude. Many honored guests have come to visit, and there are many places where the hospitality is lacking. i think it’s almost lunch time. why don’t we move and i treat everyone to a meal? If there’s anything, we can talk about it at the dining table.”
As he spoke, his gaze swept past Shi Yan and looked at Jiang che.”I’ve long heard of fifth Lord Jiang’s great name, but I’ve never had the chance to meet him. it’s my greatest honor to have the fifth lord jiang come in person.”
“there’s no need to eat.” jiang che said.
His attitude was very good.
He was gentle and polite.
“i’m here to look for doctor su. since i’ve seen her, i won’t disturb you any longer. However, I have something to discuss with doctor su, so I might need to borrow him for a few days.”
as for how long this ” few days ” was, jiang che had the final say. His words were indirectly telling Yu Wen that su chen was someone he had “borrowed” and that he would protect him.
It was a warning.
everyone present was smart and could naturally hear it.
su chen glanced at jiang che.
this is good! why didn’t jiang che treat him this well when they were at opposing ends?
However, he had to admit that he found Jiang che more pleasing to the eye now.
He had already extended his love to his brother. It seemed that Jiang che really had feelings for Yanyan.
“i asked my brother to stay at home only to discuss some important matters, not to restrict his freedom. since fifth lord jiang has a serious matter to discuss with him, i naturally have no reason to stop him.”
“Thank you very much.”
as soon as he finished speaking, jiang che stood up with shi yan and was about to leave.
Since they wanted to leave, Yu Wen naturally did not dare to force them to stay.
in this reception room, even jiang zhong and tong yan, who were standing at the side, were not easy to deal with, let alone the people who were sitting. if they really forced him to stay here, it would be obvious who would suffer in the end.
The moment Shi Yan stood up, she glanced in Shi boyu’s direction. However, she quickly retracted her gaze and looked at su chen.”let’s go, brother su chen.”
after they left, shi boyu also stood up and left with the people he brought without saying a word. jiang yu also stood up hurriedly and smiled at yu wen somewhat evilly,”I came for fifth uncle. Now that he’s gone, I won’t disturb you any longer.”
before he left, he glanced at gu zi and also smiled and nodded at gu zi.
So it was the seventh master of the Gu family.
Although he had met the seventh master of the Gu family before, he had heard of him.
it was said that he had ” credit ” in the gu family. in other words, he had put in a lot of effort for the current head of the gu family to successfully take over the power of the gu family.
Now, in the Gu family, Gu Zi was equivalent to the second-in-command.
Even when his fifth uncle was in power, the Jiang family could barely compare to the Gu family’s overall strength. Now, without his fifth uncle, the Jiang family’s strength was no match for the Gu family.
no wonder yu wen didn’t seem the least bit worried despite yuan shi’s recent losses in territory and manpower. to be able to have such a good relationship with the seventh master of the gu family, yu wen must have more power in his hands than yuan shi.
after they left, only yu wen and gu zi were left sitting on the sofa.
“what’s going on between you and that su chen?”
yu wen’s legs were crossed as he picked up a cup of coffee that had just been served in front of him and took a sip. in a lazy posture, he said,”Didn’t I just say that he’s my grandfather’s grandson? he’s my brother and my benefactor.”
“you’re not joking?” gu zi frowned and looked at him.
“do i look like i’m joking?” yu wen laughed.
“so you’re saying that you really want to acknowledge him and hand over the power to him?”
“this originally belonged to him, didn’t it?” yu wen asked, slightly raising his eyebrows.
“It’s a pity that he doesn’t care. My brother is much smarter than me and braver than me.”
“what do you mean?” gu zi didn’t understand.
“i was able to find and trap him in his original position because i was 100% sure that he was the person i was looking for. do you really think he can’t remember anything from his childhood? Miracle doctor SU’s reputation isn’t something that just anyone can have. I can’t be sure about other things, but in terms of memory, he definitely won’t lose to anyone.”
“you mean, he didn’t forget what happened before he got lost?”
Yu Wen didn’t answer him and continued, ” “back then, although i was brought back as my brother’s playmate, the truth was that we were only brought back two days after each other.”
……
Coming out of the original force building, Shi Yan stopped and turned to look at the building behind her.
when she stopped, the others also stopped.
just as he was wondering what she was going to do, he heard her shout, ” “tong yan,”
Tong Yan, who was walking at the back, hurried forward, ” “young lady yan!”
Not only did she shock Jiang Yu when she called her miss Yan, but she also shocked Shi boyu and su chen.
They all knew Tong Yan. He was the founder of the haze group, one of the seven major forces in the city of Qing. He was definitely a Big Shot.
she was the only one who didn’t say anything just now. if she did, the three of them, including yu wen and gu zi, would have to give her some face.
she was actually shi yan’s person!
“Continue the cooperation with Tianwang for the next few days and stop in two weeks.”
in the past few days, their cooperation with tian wang had been to use their power to force the original situation to release su chen. now that su chen had regained his freedom, shi yan obviously did not intend to stop now.
this was almost the same as what shi boyu had said to yu wen in the guest room,”this debt won’t be settled just like that.”
