Even Gu Yundong and Gu Jinlin had not expected Gu Jinxuan to be so vicious. His words were truly savage.

Gu Jinxuan looked at the two of them. “Well? Do you think I’m too vicious?”

Gu Yundong and Gu Jinlin exchanged glances. They did not know what to say.

Gu Jinxuan sneered derisively. “I say, Father, Third Brother, can you not be so kind? No, actually yours is a woman’s softness. Don’t be so soft, like women. My mother doesn’t even bother with her own sons but cares for others, yet she acts as if she is completely justified in doing so. Do her actions show that she cares for us?

“Besides, don’t you see what kind of family the Gu family is? Why should the Zhou family bully us? We’re one of the capital’s noble families. Father, you hold a high position. We have helped the Zhou family for so many years, and they should be grateful to us. But what happened instead?

“They’re all ingrates. They use our Gu family’s power to commit all sorts of crimes and take our Gu family’s money to fritter it away. Why shouldn’t you teach them a lesson?

“I think you should discipline them and let them see that the Gu family’s dignity is not to be marred. They had better behave themselves, or the Gu family will be the first to deal with them!”

Gu Yundong: “…”

Gu Jinlin: “…”

Gu Yundong felt that he had not understood this son well enough in the past. This was the first time he was seeing his son behave like that. Was this his immature son, who spent his time outside, always up to no good?

When Gu Jinxuan saw that his father did not speak, he said angrily, “Father, why won’t you say something? Isn’t it just two years of jail for Uncle? He’s committed so many crimes. Two years of jail is letting him off easily. Surely you don’t want to wait until they do something irredeemably bad before you try to solve the problem?

“Mother is so muddle-headed. If Grandmother’s family really does something irredeemably bad, she will certainly insist on us helping their family solve it. Where will the Gu family’s honor be then? How can you maintain your position in the capital?”

Gu Yundong was stunned!

It was true. The Gu family was now one of the most important families in the capital. Its position was so lofty that most ordinary citizens could not imagine how important they were. The Zhou family was used to using the Gu family’s name to bully others. This had gone on for a long time.

In the past, the Gu family had lived in the countryside and had a bad background. They did not dare to associate too much with the Gu family, in case they were implicated.

So none of them would deliberately emphasize their connection with the Gu family. The most they did was ask Zhou Ping for money.

Now that the Gu family had progressed so far, the Zhou family only had to mention them and all the ordinary people and the local authorities would be terrified of them.

Given the nature of the Zhou family’s members, something was bound to happen sooner or later.

If the Gu family refused to help them then, Zhou Ping would certainly kick up a big fuss.

This was the capital. Among the noble families, the Gu family’s foundations did not run deep enough. Many eyes were watching them.

What if some trouble occurred that implicated Oldest Cousin, Second Cousin and the others?

The children in this family all depended on their elders to back them up!

When Gu Yundong thought of that, he glanced at Gu Jinlin. Gu Jinlin nodded at him. Gu Yundong finally made a decision.

“You’re right. I’ll go and settle it now.”

Zhou Ping was unable to breathe. She had not expected this turn of events.

“No… No… are all of you crazy? Gu Yundong, you mustn’t do that, you mustn’t…”

Zhou Ping rushed over to grab Gu Yundong, but Gu Jinxuan swiftly caught her and pulled her back.

“This is what comes of conniving with your family.”
