"The young master of the Gu Family seems to have a bit of an identity issue."
Jiang Ye immediately looked up:
"What do you mean?" he asked.
His expression was quite serious.
After all, this was no small matter.
"If you get the chance, you might want to have someone look deeper into the relationship between that young master of the Gu Family and Mrs. Gu."
Of course, the second half of Lu Jing’s sentence, left unsaid, was: also check the relationship between that young master of the Gu Family and Jiang Qiu.
Although he didn’t finish his words, Jiang Ye, not being a fool, surely understood.
For a moment, his gaze became sharp:
"I’m going to make a call."
Lu Jing, his mouth open:
It wasn’t such an urgent issue.
But that was just the way Jiang Ye was; he couldn’t wait and needed to get the information he wanted as soon as possible.
"Wife, do you realize how much impact this could have on the Jiang Family if it turned out to be true?"
The Jiang Family and the Gu Family had been deeply intertwined in business collaborations for years, already weakened by Gu Xiyue.
If something else happened now, it would really hurt the Jiang Family.
Of course, if it had been planned in advance, there shouldn’t be much of a problem.
So, timing was critical!
Lu Jing nodded, indeed feeling persuaded.
Jiang Ye’s phone call didn’t last long, just two minutes before he hung up.
During those two minutes, Lu Jing thought a lot.
Seeing Jiang Ye come in, he waved:
This was so sudden; it sent a chill down his spine!
Yet, Jiang Ye still came over:
"What is it?" he asked.
Lu Jing’s face wore a sardonic smile, his voice becoming somewhat sharper:
"Jiang Ye, if, I say if, the young master of the Gu Family really is related to Jiang Qiu, do you realize what all the things Jiang Qiu has done over these years really mean?" Thıs content belongs to NoveI~Fire.net
"What are you thinking?" he countered.
Lu Jing snorted coldly:
"If that’s the case, her efforts to push you and Gu Xiyue together, her motives are not small, right?"
If Gu Xiyue could marry into the Jiang Family, that would be a huge help to Jiang Qiu, wouldn’t it?
Jiang Ye hadn’t failed to consider these things, just hesitated to believe them for the time being.
Think about it, how much Old Sir Jiang had doted on his adopted daughter Jiang Qiu, and later on Gu Xiyue as if she were his own granddaughter.
An old man, well into his eighties or nineties, could he endure all this?
Lu Jing quickly acknowledged:
"Right, the Gu Family, you have to be very careful."
Jiang Ye immediately laughed:
"Don’t worry, nothing major will come from the Gu side."
Not knowing before was one thing, but now that he knew, how could he not prepare in advance?
Of course, it would be best if the facts were not as speculated!
Otherwise, the Gu Family, including Jiang Qiu, might not be able to withstand the consequences.
"Forget it, forget it, let’s not talk about this anymore, are you still busy?"
"Not busy, why? Want me to stay with you... to sleep?"
The question was laden with innuendo, indeed, Lu Jing rolled his eyes a few times:
"I was just asking casually, can’t you stop imagining so much?"
Jiang Ye didn’t have any work to attend to, but he really couldn’t sleep at that moment.
Moreover, he was still waiting for a phone call.
"You have to work tomorrow morning, you should sleep first, I’ll go watch some TV."
In the end, Lu Jing didn’t say much else, he hmmed, then laid down and pulled the blanket over himself.
He did have to work early in the morning, so he really should get some sleep.
