Chi Yu looked at Gu Junzhu, his gaze heavy.

A moment later, he slowly said, “Deal.”

Ye Xinglan glanced at Chi Yu, then at Gu Junzhu, feeling chills running down his spine, breaking out in a cold sweat.

Could it be… The Gu and Chi families had formed an alliance?

In Country Y, the Gu family faced the Shi family, who held the advantage of location and popular support.

The saying holds true: powerful dragons do not suppress local snakes.

Even the fiercest dragon, when in a foreign land, on someone else’s turf, must tread lightly!

But with the addition of the Chi family, the situation had completely changed.

The Shi family was a prestigious clan in Country Y, but was not the Chi family the same?

Then their Ye Family… Ye Xinglan took a glance at Ye Xingbei.

Ye Xingbei was his sister; for her sake, he couldn’t possibly aid the Shi family in challenging the Gu family.

Besides, if his father found out Ye Xingbei was his uncle’s daughter, he would unquestionably side with Ye Xingbei without any principles.

By then, the Shi family would be besieged on all sides, enemies at every turn.

His gaze returned to Gu Junzhu.

Fifth Lord of Gu’s “killing with a borrowed knife” strategy was executed with precision and ruthlessness.

He had just inwardly criticized Gu Junzhu for unwarranted fame. Now, he felt the lesson bitterly.

But what he didn’t understand was, how did Gu Junzhu get hold of surveillance footage from events in Country Y?

He glanced again at the projection on the wall.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

The projection paused when Shi Qianying’s face flashed with a smirk of triumph.

Looking at that unfamiliar grin, Ye Xinglan shivered.

In his eyes, Shi Qianying was a rather willful and defiant younger sister, but also lively and adorable.

He didn’t expect that the Shi Qianying behind closed doors would sport such a sinister smile.

What he didn’t expect further was the disappearance of the Chi family’s young lady, Chi Qing – the only sister of Chi Yu and Chi Zhan – two months ago, had something to do with Shi Qianying.

Two months ago, when young lady Chi Qing of the Chi family disappeared, it shocked half of Country Y.

The Chi family searched high and low for her with great intensity, but they received no news of Chi Qing.

It wasn’t until half a month later that someone found Chi Qing in a deep forest.

Chi Qing was barely alive then. It took tremendous efforts from many famous doctors to save her life.

Yet, the revived Chi Qing had turned into a mentally disordered patient, a silly, mute person, living in her own world.

Considering the timestamp on the surveillance footage projected on the wall, it was evident that Shi Qianying was closely involved in Chi Qing’s disappearance.

No wonder Chi Zhan went mad after watching the video, acting as if he wanted to kill Shi Shijun.

Looking at Fifth Lord of Gu standing next to him, unruffled as always, he perceived a clear message on his face: ‘enjoy the spectacle of the fight.’

Looking at Gu Junzhu, Ye Xinglan felt an unprecedented complexity.

When Gu Junzhu called him foolish earlier, he took it as a joke and didn’t take it to heart.

He was always the smart kid in the neighborhood, quick in learning. At sixteen, he was already managing a company alongside his grandfather, and everyone praised him as an extraordinary genius.

He thought he was miles away from being labeled as ‘foolish,’ so he didn’t mind Gu Junzhu calling him stupid.

But now, he felt that compared to Gu Junzhu, he was indeed quite foolish.

Without a single blade or bullet, Fifth Lord Gu, with just a video clip and a few casual words, pulled the earth-shaking kingpin of the Chi family onto his side. He also directed trouble elsewhere, making Chi and Shi families mortal enemies, each fighting till death.

And Fifth Lord of Gu?

He just stood aside, leisurely watching the show.

Probably, after this, the Chi family would even be grateful to him for helping them find the culprit behind damaging Chi Qing. They might appreciate him, hail him for his noble character and propriety, and praise him as a good man.

Just imagining the scenario made Ye Xinglan sick to his stomach.

For the first time in his life, he had severe self-doubts… was he really a genius?

Feeling Ye Xinglan’s straight gaze, Gu Junzhu turned to look at him, his lips curling into a smile. “Your brain is not enough, is it? Can’t figure out why I would have a video of Shi Qianying hurting Chi Qing? …Actually, I should thank you and Ye Xingli for that!”

PS: So let’s guess, why would our Fifth Brother have such a video?

And also, many readers are asking why Fifth Brother never suspects that Xiao Shu is his son. This is because he trusts and respects his father, who explicitly told him that paternity tests were done for Xiao Shu and himself. They had no connection. Fifth Brother trusts his father and never doubts him.

In reality, the test results were swapped by his eldest brother’s illegitimate child. If anyone has forgotten this plot, please refer back to chapters 29 to 31. It will be clear after reading them again~

Our story is on the shelves. Thank you all for accompanying Yunyun this far. After it goes on the shelf, we will update 6 to 10 chapters per day.

Yunyun will try to post 10 chapters. If for some reason we post less, please be understanding.

The update time is at midnight every day. But please don’t stay up late. It’s bad for health. Better to wait and read in the morning. Health comes first!

Again, thank you all for accompanying us on this journey. Yunyun loves you all, muah!
