Is there anyone who is not clear about this matter?

That is impossible. We are all in this circle, and any little disturbance will attract the attention of many people.

But who would deliberately care?

This does not cause any loss to anyone, but who would refuse something that benefits everyone?

Liu Shuya frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Since each party gets what it needs, Yang Qiao is the chess piece pushed forward by the Yang family."

On the surface, everyone came to attend Yang Xiu's birthday party, but she herself has not shown up until now.

In fact, this is just an unspoken banquet where everyone attends with their own thoughts.

But what puzzled Gu Jinhe was, if it was really that simple, would it be necessary for Yang Xiu to personally hand the invitation to her?

But at present, only Yang Qiao from the Yang family appeared in the banquet hall, and no one else showed up.

Gu Jinhe couldn't find Yang Xiu, so he had to put his doubts aside for the time being.

At this time, Qin Yi said: "So whether Yang Qiao will marry or not, and who he will marry, is not the purpose of today. The real purpose is to gather everyone here."

The fact that all the prestigious celebrities in the capital were invited is telling people outside that the Yang family is still the same Yang family as before.

Don't tolerate offense from others.

Liu Shuya glanced at Gu Jinhe and became a little worried. The Yang family has not yet found out who is competing for the business, but there is no paper that can cover up fire in this world.

Sooner or later, the Yang family will find out.

How will it end then?

Although Liu Shuya was not clear about the Yang family's several attempts to assassinate Gu Jinhe before, why the Gu family, including Gu Jinhe, did not hold them accountable.

But Liu Shuya knows that there is a bottom line for everything. Once this bottom line is crossed, many things will become uncontrollable.

She was worried that Gu Jinhe would be hurt in the end.

Even now, Liu Shuya still doesn't understand why the Yang family must kill Gu Jinhe.

What kind of grudge is involved here? I'm afraid no one else knows except the Gu and Yang families.

Since this was Gu Jinhe's private matter, Liu Shuya did not ask about it, because she knew that if Gu Jinhe was willing to tell her, he would tell her without her asking.

Just like this time, before Gu Jinhe said that she was the one who intercepted the Yang family's business, Liu Shuya never even thought that this matter would be related to Gu Jinhe.

That's why Liu Shuya was worried that if the Yang family knew about this, they would definitely settle all the new and old grudges together.

Even if it was the Yang family who took action first, there would be retaliation.

But just like Gu Jinhe said, the little business that the Yang family managed to snatch away after several attempts at assassination can only be considered interest.

It can't be considered revenge at all.

But Liu Shuya was also worried that doing so would completely anger the Yang family. After all, the Yang family's financial situation was not so glorious.

No one knows how the Yang family will retaliate.

But Qin Yi was here, and Liu Shuya was not comfortable saying some things, so she endured it.

Thinking about finding an opportunity to talk to Gu Jinhe about this alone.

The people from the Fu family who came to today's banquet were from a branch of the family. Gu Jinhe had never seen him before and didn't know him.

This person came over and nodded slightly towards Gu Jinhe as a greeting, and then he didn't come over to disturb him.

Gu Jinhe guessed that this must be a greeting from Fu Huaiyuan.

During this time, Qin Yi looked at Gu Jinhe frequently, as if he had something to say to her, but he seemed to be hesitant about something and never opened his mouth.

Liu Shuya could see that Qin Yi seemed to have something to say, but she didn't ask Liu Shuya to leave.

This is what I want to say but don’t want to say.

Liu Shuya looked at Gu Jinhe calmly. Gu Jinhe shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know what was going on.

Since Qin Yi didn't say anything, they would just pretend they knew nothing.

The three of them then talked about other topics.

Xu Cheng had been standing behind Gu Jinhe, his eyes fixed on the people in the hall.

Liu Shuya glanced at him and whispered to Gu Jinhe, "Why does Xu Cheng seem to be even more nervous than before?"

Liu Shuya lived in the Gu family for a period of time and had dealings with Xu Cheng. At that time, Xu Cheng was just as abiding by the rules as he is now, and did his best to protect Gu Jinhe.

But it’s not exaggerated to this extent.

Those cold and vigilant eyes, like a radar, were observing everyone in the hall without any concealment.

It seems that as long as someone makes any unusual movement, they will step forward to stop it.

It was Xu Cheng's vigilant expression that dissuaded many people who wanted to talk to Gu Jinhe.

Then Liu Shuya changed her mind and felt that Xu Cheng was right to do this. Everyone knew that the Yang family and the Gu family had grievances, and Gu Jinhe almost died at the hands of the Yang family several times.

Now that Gu Jinhe has come in person to attend the Yang family's banquet, it is reasonable for Xu Cheng to be careful.

It is precisely because of this that no one thinks there is anything wrong with Xu Cheng's vigilance.

Gu Jinhe said softly: "I told you when I came here that you don't have to do this, but he said that if you are careful you won't make mistakes."

Knowing what Xu Cheng was worried about, and also considering her safety, Gu Jinhe didn't say much.

Liu Shuya: "Xu Cheng is really loyal to you. Hey, I'm just confused. When you first came back to Gu's house, you and Xu Cheng weren't familiar with each other, right? Why is he so loyal to you alone?"

Qin Yi also looked at Gu Jinhe curiously. In fact, this question had already been in her mind.

Xu Cheng's grandfather is the steward of the Gu family, and he is a steward with the surname Gu, which has a different meaning from that of an ordinary steward.

Only the direct descendants of the Gu family can be included in the family tree, and can even enjoy offerings from later generations after their death.

Even the side branches of the Gu family do not have this treatment, but the old housekeeper with the surname Gu can enjoy this treatment.

Therefore, Xu Cheng's status in the Gu family is second only to several young masters and young ladies from the direct lineage.

This matter is no secret in the circle of aristocratic families, and everyone knows that Xu Cheng will sooner or later be given the surname Gu, and his status can be said to be more important than that of the side branches of the Gu family.

Just when everyone thought that Xu Cheng would stay with Gu family heir Gu Jinkuan.

But he is the only one among the heirs of the Gu family's butler in the past hundred years who did not grow up with the heir.

There were a lot of speculations in the circle before. After all, everyone knew that whoever the Gu family’s housekeeper followed would be the next head of the Gu family.

However, Xu Cheng did not have much contact with Gu Jinkuan since he was a child.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Gu Jinhe came back.

On the first day that Gu Jinhe returned, the old lady of the Gu family arranged Xu Cheng to be by Gu Jinhe's side.

Such an arrangement once caused the outside world to have doubts about Gu Jinkuan's position as heir.

Some people even speculated whether the old lady wanted to hand the Gu family over to Gu Jinhe.

After all, according to her status, she is the only heir of the Gu family's eldest branch.

According to the right of inheritance, she is indeed qualified to inherit the Gu family.
