Seeing her so understanding of the bigger picture, Gu Hai felt even more that the Gu family had wronged her.
"Meiru, now you have to suffer the same fate as me, I really feel very sorry to you," he said.
"Dad, actually... we don’t need to put up with this. I think we really can’t indulge Gu Yixuan any longer. How good were you to him before? You entrusted the family business to him, forgave him over and over again, tolerated him. But what was the result? He didn’t appreciate any of it and instead turned against you. Dad, I’m really worried that you will suffer a great injustice at his hands."
Gu Hai was slightly stunned; this was exactly what he was worried about.
Gu Yixuan wouldn’t take his life, but he would certainly imprison him, making him live a life isolated from the world.
For a dragon that used to soar high and proud, would he be content suddenly trapped in shallow waters?
Gu Hai would not be content.
A sinister killing intent slowly gathered in his eyes.
Gao Meiru continued to persuade him, "Actually, we just want to protect ourselves; it’s also considered severing ties for justice. We don’t need to take his life, just make him a cripple, unable to go against us anymore. As for the bloodline, as long as he’s alive, that’s not an issue."
In their eyes, Gu Yixuan was just a tool for producing descendants for the Gu family.
This proposal deeply moved Gu Hai.
"But I heard that Huo En in North America has a life-and-death friendship with him. If we made a move against him, wouldn’t it...?"
"Dad, we don’t have to worry about the mob boss in North America at all. Gu Yixuan is far away in W City; even if Huo En wanted to save him, he couldn’t quench a nearby fire with distant water. Another thing, perhaps the outside world doesn’t know, but I heard that Huo En actually took a bullet to the brain nine years ago. Although he was saved, the bullet stayed in his brain for too long, and now he’s almost at the end of his rope."
Gu Hai’s eyes lit up, "Really?!"
Gao Meiru nodded affirmatively, "It’s true. Lately, the affairs of North America are being managed by Huo En’s two capable assistants; he hasn’t made an appearance in a very long time. All this was told to me by Zhenzhen. She found out from the Fujiwara Mo Family, so it must be correct." Google seaʀᴄh novｅlfire.net
The influence of the Fujiwara Mo Family was very powerful; if it was information they revealed, then it absolutely had to be true.
"So, Gu Yixuan has lost his backing?" He couldn’t help but laugh, his smile exuding a sinister eeriness.
