Rebirth: Mr. Fu will not cancel the engagement this time

Judging from what Gu Jinhe said, it seemed that he didn't care about this matter, but rather that the Gao family was making a big deal out of nothing.

But since Gu Jinhe let them into the Gu family, there must be a reason.

Sure enough, after Patriarch Gao said a few words tentatively, Gu Jinhe did not hide the reason why he wanted to meet them.

Gu Jinhe's brows were filled with a bit of coldness: "I hope that when the seven great families fight against the Murong family in the future, even if the Gao family does not help, please do not turn against them."

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Gao's expression suddenly changed. He had not expected that Gu Jinhe actually knew about the Murong family's private contact with him.

Gu Jinhe glanced at the changing expression of Patriarch Gao and said calmly, "My request is just that simple. If Patriarch Gao can do it, then we can pretend that there is nothing wrong between us. But if Patriarch Gao can't do it, don't blame me for being rude."

There was a hint of surprise in the eyes of the head of the Gao family. He originally thought that after knowing that the Gao family and the Murong family had contact, given the current situation, Gu Jinhe should not let the Gao family go.

But he didn't expect that Gu Jinhe actually just asked him not to interfere in the matter if he couldn't help, or just stand by and watch.

It was indeed as Gu Jinhe said, very simple.

But it is not an easy task to do this.

Because when the Murong family came to the Gao family for cooperation, the head of the Gao family did not explicitly refuse.

If the head of the Gao family suddenly rejected the Murong family now, he would be afraid of incurring the wrath of the Murong family. Even the seven great families might not be able to fight against the Murong family, let alone the Gao family. This is no different from an egg hitting a stone.

If the Murong family were to retaliate, I'm afraid that only two of the three top families in Beijing would remain.

The head of the Gao family cannot take this risk. The honor of the family is what he values ​​most, and there must not be any mistakes.

This was also the reason why Patriarch Gao did not explicitly refuse when the Murong family came to discuss cooperation.

Because Patriarch Gao was unsure of the Murong family's attitude, if he refused and instead provoked revenge from the Murong family, it would be a disaster.

Therefore, the head of the Gao family could only stabilize the Murong family first. As for the cooperation, it could be postponed for some time. Everyone knew that the seven major families would unite to fight against the Murong family over the past year.

If the Murong family is defeated, the head of the Gao family will try his best to distance himself from it, but if the Mu family wins, it is not impossible for him to follow behind and take advantage of the situation.

It is precisely because of this idea that the head of the Gao family has a more serious attitude towards the Murong family, but has not explicitly expressed cooperation.

What the head of the Gao family wanted was that he should do his part well on the side of the aristocratic family, and at the same time he should not do nothing on the side of the Murong family.

But now that Gu Jinhe already knew about this, Patriarch Gao's plan to please both sides could no longer succeed.

Even the moment Gu Jinhe opened his mouth, Patriarch Gao already regretted why he wanted to establish a relationship with the aristocratic family.

Now the wolf has fallen into the tiger's mouth.

Gu Jinhe also directly pointed out that he had private contact with the Murong family. If it were the head of any other family, he would probably be the first one to be punished.

It is better to kill by mistake than to let go.

What the seven great families are most afraid of now is making the same mistakes as they did back then. If the old lady of the Bai family had not leaked the secrets of the seven great families, some things could have been avoided.

Therefore, what the seven great families hate most are traitors.

If Patriarch Gao chooses to cooperate with the Murong family and maneuver between the aristocratic families and the Murong family, the final outcome will not be a good one no matter which side wins.

It is precisely because he understands this that Patriarch Gao does not want anyone to know about the connection between himself and the Murong family.

But unfortunately, Gu Jinhe had been sending people to monitor the Murong family. When he learned that someone from the Murong family had met with the head of the Gao family, Gu Jinhe knew that the Murong family wanted to seek external help.

When this matter was known, the Gao family was already on Gu Jinhe's blacklist.

If the Gao family doesn't go out today, she will take the time to clean up the Gao family after Gu Jinhong's engagement party.

But today, the head of the Gao family came to visit in person, so with such a good opportunity, Gu Jinhe of course spoke frankly.

Gu Jinhe has already given her warning. If Patriarch Gao still chooses to cooperate with the Murong family, then don’t blame her for being ruthless.

Gao Qi, who was sitting nearby, listened to the conversation between Gu Jinhe and the head of the Gao family. He did not understand it at first, but when he saw that the head of the Gao family looked unhappy, combined with what Gu Jinhe had just said, a bad thought arose in Gao Qi's mind.

Even he, who had no right of inheritance and only the title of eldest son but no real power, knew how serious the hatred of the seven great families was towards the Murong family.

If the fact that the Gao family and the Murong family had had contact was exposed at this time, one can imagine what the consequences would be for the Gao family.

The seven great families will never let the Gao family go. To fight against the Murong family, the seven great families may need to unite and discuss together, but to deal with the Gao family, it does not require so much effort.

Takaki's face turned pale, and even beads of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Although he would not be the heir to the Gao family in the future, Gao Qi still understood the principle that everyone prospers together and suffers together.

If something happens to the Gao family, what good will come of this young master, who relies on the Gao family and looks down on other people,?

Without the support of the Gao family, Gao Qi is nothing. He has no capital to show off to others. Those who have been offended by him over the years will definitely not miss this good opportunity to take advantage of them.

Gao Qi stared at Gu Jinhe and the head of the Gao family, as if he wanted to see something from their expressions.

However, Patriarch Gao only revealed his inner emotions at first, and then he stabilized his expression and regained his previous composure, if you ignore his heavy breathing.

Gu Jinhe was even harder to guess, because his expression hardly changed from beginning to end. Apart from a somewhat cold expression, nothing could be gleaned from it.

Even though Gu Jinhe said those words to Patriarch Gao, her expression did not change.

At this moment, Gao Qi sincerely felt that the outside world's evaluation of Gu Jinhe seemed somewhat inconsistent.

Looking at Gu Jinhe's demeanor and behavior, if one didn't know him, one would think he was the head of some family. Even the head of the Gao family couldn't keep his composure because of Gu Jinhe's words.

At this moment, the living room was quiet with only two heavy breathing sounds.

One is for Mr. Gao, and the other is for Gao Qi.

Gao Qi was simply frightened by his own thoughts. He was worried that the Gao family would be retaliated against by the aristocratic families, or that they would not end well if they offended the Murong family. In short, it seemed that no matter what happened, there would be no good outcome.

Thinking of this, Takaki was so frightened by the possibility of something happening that his whole body froze.
