45.Chapter 45
The traditional Chinese-style hall was silent, and Fang Jin turned to Ke Rong and asked slowly: "I can't represent Mr. Gu, can you?"
This is what I asked about the point - Gu Yuan's engagement is so big, and Gu Mingzong is so sick that he will not come forward and ask Fang Jin to come forward. He must have given him the right to speak. The Gu family is directly in the third generation of single-handed family. As long as Gu Mingzong lets the acquiesce, where can I find a sufficient Gu family member to refute Fang Jin's face on the spot?
Ke Rong did not bother him, but sneered and turned to the old man in the upper left and said, "Uncle, I know that your elders intend to let Gu Yuan and his two sects be promoted to pave the way for him to inherit the Ke family's incense in the future - but even if we have the tradition of being a part-time member, we have to find someone who is dedicated to the Ke family and will not bend outward. Do you think?"
"...What do you mean?" Uncle Ke narrowed his eyes and said.
Ke Rong raised his hand and unbuttoned his cufflinks and piled up his sleeves: "Did you see it?"
I saw an unhealed gunshot wound under his elbow, which penetrated from front to back, and the bullet scar was dark red. If you look closely, the muscle tear marks had not receded. It was obviously no more than half a year since the injury was injured.
"Do you know how this injury is suffered? It was beaten by Gu Yuan and the ruthless little ungrateful wolf!"
Everyone looked at each other, and even Fang Jin turned his head, but Ke Rong suddenly pointed at himself: "Gu Mingzong wanted to murder Mr. Ke, and sent this person surnamed Fang to the cruise ship to attack. Fortunately, I went through a lot of hardships to escape from the explosion. As soon as I went on the deck, I saw this man standing on the side of the ship to escape; I was about to shoot him from behind to avenge Mr. Ke, who knew-"
Fang Jin suddenly realized something, and his pupils tightened slightly.
"Who knows Gu Yuan, an unfamiliar ungrateful wolf!" Ke Rong cursed: "Suddenly arrived at this time and shot me directly from the front, regardless of me, who is his uncle!"
Everyone was in an uproar.
Fang Jin's hand trembled slightly, and even he could feel how obvious the frequency of trembling was.
He remembered the black muzzle raised by Gu Yuan at him through the smoke and the sea. From the front, the muzzle was aimed at him, but at such a long distance, if the muzzle was actually a little bit off, even a little bit...
"If my subordinates hadn't saved them quickly, I'd been buried in the sea with Mr. Ke, how could I stand here and talk to all the elders! - Think carefully, Gu Yuan is in order to protect the Gu family, but even my uncle named Ke can do it. Do you really believe that such a person can break up with the Gu family? Aren't you afraid that he will just join forces with Fang, and try to deceive my Ke family's wealth?!"
Ke Rong took a breath and wanted to scold him. Suddenly, a calm voice interrupted him:
"How do you prove this?"
When Ke Rong turned around, he saw Fang Jin put his hands in his pockets and staring straight at him.
"——You are the only one who says it's not reliable. Who knows if you shot yourself? When you came back, Gu Yuan shot it?"
This actually asked many people in their hearts. Even if he didn't speak, Uncle Ke would say it - but it was a bit strange when it came out of Fang Jin's mouth, a bit like he was helping Gu Yuan.
However, the situation was tense, and most of the elders of the Ke family branch were standing on Gu Yuan's side, so no one could care about it at that time. Only Gu Yuan, holding the teacup, paused and turned his head slightly to look at Fang Jin.
The light in the hall was dark, and Fang Jin seemed to have normal expressions, his eyes were dark and without any light; but those who were familiar with him would find that his body was unnaturally tight, just like the urgency of the bowstring when it reached the extreme.
Ke Rong said coldly: "It's no basis for saying it? I saved the people who came back to Ke's house from the sea, so why did you say it's no basis for saying it's no basis?"
He turned to the door and sang: "Come in!"
The door was pushed open again, and three men dressed as bodyguards walked into the hall in turn. They first bowed to Ke Rong and called out to the boss, and then bowed to the uncle Ke in the upper left. It was obvious that these people were often present at Ke Rong's confidant subordinates, and Uncle Ke was not unfamiliar with them. Seeing this, he frowned and pointed at the person in charge: "——Awang, your boss said that he was shot and injured by Master Gu on a cruise ship. Thanks to you, you rescued him. Is this a matter?"
Awang nodded and said hoarsely: "Some."
Uncle Ke glanced at Gu Yuan without notice, but Gu Yuan didn't even raise his eyelids, and there was no emotion on the deep side like a sculpture.
Awang lowered his head and continued, "My boss's hand was indeed hit by Master Gu on the cruise ship. At that time, the deck caught fire. Master drove a speedboat to approach. We thought he was here to save Mr. Ke, but who knew that he was aiming the first shot at the boss..."
The bodyguard repeated the chaos at that time, and then the other two people also came out to confirm that Ke Rong was standing behind Fang Jin and pulled his gun at him. If Gu Yuan's magic weapon had not suddenly shot from the sky, Ke Rong would not have been shot and fell into the water. The gun aiming at Fang Jin would have been shot and could not be found in the chaos.
Ke Rong turned his head and looked at Gu Yuan, gritted his teeth and said, "What else do you have to say now?"
In the shadow, he sat in the tea, silent, and his sturdy figure was like a black rock, emitting a deep sense of oppression.
There was no movement in the hall, and many people even subconsciously held their breathing.
"It was me who fired a gun at you." Gu Yuan said in a low voice after a long time, "So what?"
Ke Rong was furious and was about to scold him, but suddenly Gu Yuan raised his hand that had not moved to serve tea tonight and put the teacup on the table.
——At the moment the small pastel cover cup was about to touch the tabletop of the pear blossom, Fang Jin suddenly heard him speak on the side:
"Mr. Ke's words are unreasonable. Is it a matter of shooting at you to protect the Gu family? Shooting at you can show that the relationship between the eldest young master and President Gu is still there, and his elbow is turning outward? Let me be honest, President Gu did not come to the eldest young master's engagement this time because he was sick of the eldest young master!"
Gu Yuan paused.
He brought up the teacup again.
Many people looked at Fang Jin, and fire almost popped up in Ke Rong's eyes: "What do you mean by this?"
"It means literally." Fang Jin said lightly, "The eldest young master Chu Ni's biological father, Mr. Gu has been ruthless to him. Whether the Ke family asks for a different surname and abide by the emperor, whether it wants the eldest young master to inherit the incense, this is all the internal affairs of your Ke family. I am just expressing no objection to the Gu family. Other grudges about you and the eldest young master are not within the scope of the Gu family's concern."
Ke Rong said angrily: "Gu Yuan's ungrateful wolf clearly protected the Gu family and shot me, you--"
He shook his arms and was about to show everyone the gunshot wounds pierced through his hand, suddenly there was a crisp sound from the door: "It's not like this at all!"
Everyone turned around, with different expressions. Ke Rong opened his eyes wide in shock, and even a trace of surprise flashed through Gu Yuan's eyes.
——I saw that it turned out to be Chi Qiu.
The Ke family housekeeper followed behind, as if he wanted to stop her but didn't dare. Chi Qiu was wearing the white evening dress at the party and wearing high heels, walking to the middle of the hall with beautiful eyes, staring at Gu Yuan: "Are you trying to protect the Gu family? You obviously want to protect Fang Jin to shoot at your uncle! - Why, now you don't dare to recognize him?"
Gu Yuan's thick eyebrows frowned.
"And you, Assistant Fang." In an uproar, Chi Qiu turned to Fang Jin again, raised his voice and said coldly: "You said the eldest young master, Ji Ni's biological father, why didn't you say how Ji Ni's, huh?"
Fang Jin seemed to be a little evasive, "Ms. Chi..."
"Don't dare to do it? I'll swallow my anger if I'm engaged!" Chi Qiu suddenly interrupted him and said angrily: "When I was in the Gu family, I wanted to scold you. While being a lover, I coaxed Mr. Gu to the side and even gave him all his wealth. At the same time, he relied on his personal assistant to seduce the eldest young master, which eventually led to their father and son being completely disconnected!"
She approached one step and almost touched Fang Jin. Everyone around her expressions were incredible, and she heard her loud voice sharply: "Why did Mr. Gu get sick by the eldest young master? It's obvious that you are making trouble from it! It's fine if you rush to Mr. Gu to seek wealth and prosperity, but you seduce the eldest young master to contradict his father for you, causing the Gu family's father and son to completely turn against each other. In the end, you are the only one who benefits!"
"Do you still have the face to come to the Ke family? You still have the face to stand here and say that the Gu family doesn't care about the eldest son? If it weren't for you, how could Mr. Gu even kick his own son out of the house? How could he bear to attack the eldest son!"
The hall suddenly fell into a frozen silence, and only Chi Qiu's voice rippled in circles in the air, shocking everyone's eardrums.
"..." Fang Jin took a step back and said tactfully: "Miss Chi, some things are not what you said..."
"Why isn't it what I said? What's wrong?"
Chi Qiu's attitude was aggressive, and Uncle Ke next to him finally reacted and hurriedly stopped him: "This - Miss Chi, since the fact that President Gu hated the eldest son deeply has caused it, the reason is not necessary to be investigated... As a man, it is common for him to wander before he gets married, as long as he will..."
"You let him say it!" Chi Qiu said angrily: "Which sentence I said is wrong?"
In fact, Uncle Ke's words represent the concept of a considerable number of men present: it is not a rare thing to look for flowers and ask about willows. It is unnecessary to find out the score after getting engaged. However, Mr. Gu was so fierce that he actually slept with his father's lover. No wonder the grace between the father and son of the Gu family was broken, and it turned out to be like this...
"Miss Chi," Fang Jin seemed to be finally annoyed by Chi Qiu's pressing attitude, and said coldly: "You are willing to do this kind of thing, and there is no saying that anyone owe anyone. Now you stand up for your man, are you going to settle the old debt with me?"
Chi Qiu was speechless: "You still have the courage to say that I just want to know why you appeared here and why you still have the face to attend our engagement! The entire Gu family has been cheated by you, and that's not the end? Do you have to do something for Gu Mingzong to get rid of the eldest son?!"
Fang Jin stared at her blushing face and smiled happily after a long time. His facial features were really impeccable. Such a provocative expression actually gave people a feeling of being distorted:
"You all know that the entire Gu family will be mine. What's the matter with whether Gu Yuan is alive or dead? If you have time to settle the score with me, why not go back and watch the eldest son carefully. What's going on in the future?"
Chi Qiu was furious: "You—"
She raised her hand violently, but the expression on her face instantly hesitated.
Because the play was too unexpected, and with her back to the seat, no one noticed the strangeness in that moment, and only fell into Fang Jin's eyes who was facing her.
——Is it really a fight?
Fang Jin nodded slightly in front of her gaze.
Really beat.
Chi Qiu is definitely brave and knowledgeable among the rich lady, but after all, she is in front of so many people and lacks experience, so she was a little too eager to act just now. If Gu Yuan hadn't fought for his lover with his father and then failed and was expelled, the inner scenes of the failure and being exaggerated were too exciting to shock everyone, otherwise her awkward and exaggerated performance would have definitely been seen.
If this slap is raised but cannot be swung, it will be even more false. Anyone who thinks about it carefully can find something wrong afterwards.
Chi Qiu had no choice under Fang Jin's steady gaze. He bit his teeth and was about to hit him in the face when he suddenly heard a harsh "bang!" behind him!
Gu Yuan finally threw the small pastel teacup he had not put down all night on the table, then got up, strode, and grabbed Chi Qiu's raised hand like lightning!
Not only Chi Qiu, but even Fang Jin was stunned and suddenly looked at Gu Yuan's cold and hard face in the shadow.
"Enough," he said in a deep voice.
At this moment, the door was slammed open, and more than a dozen bodyguards in black rushed in at the same time!
Everyone in the hall was suddenly in an uproar, and subconsciously stood up, forming a tense confrontation with Gu Yuan's trusted bodyguards.
Several old men were still stable and stood up and retreated. Uncle Ke retreated behind the table while constantly looking at Gu Yuan with inquiring eyes. Ke Rong next to him seemed to realize something and suddenly shouted: "——Gu Yuan? What are you going to do? Can you force the palace to be forced to do it?"
"You're thinking too much, uncle." Gu Yuan said lightly, "I just want to talk to you completely while there are too many people today."
After saying that, he ignored Ke Rong, who was furious, waved to his confidant, pointed at Fang Jin and said, "Defendant Fang is tired - don't let him stand here and send him back."
Fang Jin suddenly looked at Gu Yuan, his lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but Gu Yuan didn't even look at him from the corner of his eyes.
What are you going to do? Gu Yuan is going to be tough with Ke Rong?!
But this is in the Ke family, and just after the engagement ceremony, he is in good condition and incomplete in time and place. He is the end-
"Vice President Fang," the subordinate strode forward, blocking Fang Jin's vision, with a soft posture with a well-trained strength: "It's not very safe for you here, please come with me."
Fang Jin suddenly raised his foot and walked half a step towards Gu Yuan. At this time, Akan, who was waiting in the corner of the hall, also stepped forward quickly, grabbed him, leaned into his ear and whispered: "Boss, go quickly."
The atmosphere in the hall was so tense that it was about to explode. No one dared to act rashly, and no one even made any noise. Fang Jin could not delay in the public's eyes, so he had to be pulled by Gu Yuan's confidant and Akan. His steps staggered slightly and he stepped out of the heavy double-sided gate of mahogany.
·
When he walked out, Fang Jin found that the situation outside the door had changed. The corridors, stairs, and the guards of the Ke family outside the auditorium disappeared. The garden was empty, and there seemed to be a needle-like danger in the night. Gu Yuan's subordinate did not say a word, and took them straight through the grass to the villa behind the auditorium, went up to the second floor, and opened the door of a guest bedroom with the key.
"This was cleaned out by Mr. Gu in advance. The door lock is reinforced with steel and the key is kept by him. Time is tight and there is no time to arrange it. Fortunately, it is still clean and tidy. Please rest overnight."
Fang Jin stopped at the door, "What's going on? Gu Yuan wants to fight Ke Rong?"
The subordinate hesitated a little, and after a moment, he still coughed and said slowly: "Young Master Gu originally... didn't expect you to appear tonight..."
Because I didn't expect it, it was difficult to deal with the handle in Ke Rong's hand. After careful consideration, Gu Yuan chose to take the lead and completely defeat the other party.
——This is his side as the heir of the underworld, he is cold and cautious, and he will break if he wants to break; once he starts, a person like Ke Rong is far from enough to his weight.
"Young Master Gu left me in advance. The Ke family will be very chaotic tonight. I hope you stay in the room and don't come out." My subordinate made another call and said, "In addition, no matter what movement you hear, no matter who knocks on the door, even if someone hits the door, don't open it. Once the matter is over, the Young Master will come here to open the door in person."
Fang Jin's breathing was slightly messy and finally walked into the room with his foot.
My subordinates were about to close the door behind him, but suddenly he heard him say without looking back: "——Wait..."
His subordinates paused, and they saw that Fang Jin seemed to be dissolved in the hazy night, with his back lonely and clear; after a while, he heard him ringing with a little hoarse voice and said softly:
"Please be careful about everything..."
