hospital.
The pupils of the old man on the hospital bed gradually returned to their original positions, and the originally stiff muscles eased a little bit.
He slowly closed his eyes, his lips became dry from talking for a long time, and some places had cracked slightly.
Lu Wanqing rushed forward quickly, held the old man's shoulders, and wiped off the sweat from his forehead.
Gu Xiao and Mr. Qin stood side by side at the foot of the bed, both of them frowned, their faces full of astonishment.
The half hour that just passed was like a dream for the two of them.
The Gu family's silver needle extraction technique was developed on the basis of the ancient Chinese medicine silver needle technique, and later developed through the joint efforts of several generations of the Gu family.
Ordinary people would absolutely be unable to resist this kind of acupuncture. Even a professionally trained spy could vomit clean after one injection.
But in the past half an hour, this old man from the Weishui Gang didn't say a word!
"Are you satisfied?" Lu Wanqing wiped the sweat off the old man's forehead, turned his head away, and scanned the two of them with a knife in his eyes, "He doesn't know anything."
Old Qin looked at Gu Xiao in embarrassment.
In the current predicament, apart from getting what the Gu family has been looking for, there is no way to get rid of this predicament.
Gu Xiao obviously understood his situation.
Just seeing Lu Wanqing staring at her angrily, Gu Xiao was reluctant to continue doing things that ran counter to her thoughts.
"Miss Lu..."
Just as Qin Lao was about to speak, Gu Xiao stopped him: "Since he won't say anything, let's talk about it in a few days."
"Jiu Ye, the auction is just around the corner. What happened in the hospital today will be sent back soon. If you can't get what the Gu family wants before the auction starts, then..."
"I said don't say any more." Gu Xiao suddenly raised his voice, and stabbed Elder Qin with his eyes.
The latter pondered for a long time, and finally swallowed the rest of the words.
Gu Xiao turned his head slightly, just as Lu Wanqing was staring at him with his eyes open.
The two people's gazes met, and they paused for a few seconds. Gu Xiao turned his head away from looking at Lu Wanqing, and waved his hands casually: "This kind of acupuncture will hurt people's vitality, so take good care of him."
Just as the words fell, Gu Xiao's cell phone vibrated.
Seeing the name on the note, he frowned even more, opened the door and left quickly.
Elder Qin glanced at Gu Xiao's call, and his eyes became complicated.
When Gu Xiao left, Elder Qin looked at Lu Wanqing: "Miss Lu, Master Jiu also has his difficulties. If he can't get something that can impress everyone in the Gu family, how can he defend himself and you in front of the Gu family? ?”
The former Lu Wanqing can understand.
But when Elder Qin said that Gu Xiao needed to protect herself, she suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Elder Qin in puzzlement.
Elder Qin sighed deeply: "You don't really think that if you destroy the goods of the second room of the Gu family, the second room of the Gu family can let you go?"
Lu Wanqing frowned slightly.
Elder Qin took two steps forward, and said to Lu Wanqing in a low voice: "Miss Lu, let me tell you the truth, it is also the meaning of Master Jiu to let you control Wu Xiufeng's lineage. He wants to give you a backer. As for the reason, even if I don't say it You should know too."
Lu Wanqing pondered for a few seconds: "Is he worried that the Gu family will pursue that batch of goods?"
Elder Qin heaved a sigh of relief, and shook his head helplessly: "Everyone knows the business that the second room of the Gu family has done privately over the years. It's just that you have pierced the window paper. The ninth master has no choice but to Take all the responsibilities in front of the Gu family."
"He is worried that he can't protect you by himself, so he can only let you join the ancient Chinese doctor. In this way, even if the second wife of the Gu family wants to touch you, he will always take our ancient Chinese doctor's face into consideration."
Lu Wanqing frowned even more, thoughtfully: "It's like today. Chen Jie set up such a big game, but because you represent the ancient Chinese doctor, he had to give up taking away the people from the Weishui Gang."
Mr. Qin was noncommittal: "He has done so much, but why can't you think about it for him? There are so many people in the Gu family who want to embarrass him. If he can't come up with a powerful thing, not only can't get it back The villa left by his mother, even his position as the ninth master of the Gu family, is probably in jeopardy."
After Mr. Qin finished speaking, he shook his head, glanced at the old man on the hospital bed, and strode away without saying a word.
Elder Qin opened the door of the ward, and Lu Wanqing looked out through the crack of the door, and saw Gu Xiao with his back to her, holding the phone in his right hand, and his left behind his back.
Although Lu Wanqing couldn't see Gu Xiao's expression, she keenly noticed that the five fingers of his left hand were tightly grasping his palm, and the tips of his nails sank into his palm.
It seems that this phone call must have made Gu Xiao extremely embarrassed.
Elder Qin's words still echoed in her ears, and Lu Wanqing felt even more uncomfortable.
"Miss Lu." An old man's voice came from behind.
Lu Wanqing turned his head away, the old man had already woken up and was looking at Lu Wanqing weakly.
……
Outside.
Mr. Gu over the phone scolded fiercely.
Gu Xiao's face was expressionless, but in fact his heart was overwhelmed.
"You are just like your dead mother, you know how to make trouble for me!"
Gu Xiao's words instantly ignited Gu Xiao.
Gu Xiao sneered twice: "Is that what you want to say?"
There was a pause on the phone for a few seconds: "What?"
Mr. Gu seemed a little unable to believe his ears.
"You have been going around so much, just because you want me not to cause trouble for you, and let you auction that villa?"
"Gu Xiao." Old Master Gu's voice was even deeper, "I don't understand, it's just a villa, what are you struggling with? Haven't there been fewer villas auctioned off from you in these years?"
"To you, of course it's just a villa." Gu Xiao's voice was gloomy, his head was half raised, and his sharp eyes were staring at the white wall in front of him, "You always put your own interests first. What about the others?"
There was a long silence on the phone.
After a long time, Mr. Gu said loudly, "Anyway, I told you before. Unless you can give me a good reason before the auction starts. Otherwise, I'll sell that villa!"
The voice fell, and there was a long beep on the other end of the phone.
Gu Xiao didn't take the phone back, and let the phone stick to his ear, listening to the busy tone coming from the receiver.
Over the years, he has heard this voice countless times, and even subconsciously got used to the existence of this voice.
Mr. Gu never cared about him and his mother.
If it hadn't been for Gu Xiao's hard work all these years, and finally made some achievements, and became the decisive Gu Jiuye who everyone said, Mr. Gu would be ashamed to admit his son.
Emotions surged, and Gu Xiao's eyes turned cold.
In any case, he will get the secret of the Weishui Gang.
Gu Xiao turned around and met a line of sight head-on.
The pupils of the old man on the hospital bed gradually returned to their original positions, and the originally stiff muscles eased a little bit.
He slowly closed his eyes, his lips became dry from talking for a long time, and some places had cracked slightly.
Lu Wanqing rushed forward quickly, held the old man's shoulders, and wiped off the sweat from his forehead.
