Chapter 855 It’s Not Too Late to Turn Back
In the hospital, Gu Xie woke up.
He was talking to the Second Master alone.
"The bullet was slightly off target. I was lucky. I won't be so lucky next time. Don't be so reckless before doing anything." Second Master Gu said softly, "Our family can't stand tragedy."
"Yes, Dad, I know." Gu Xie said that he was not like his brothers, who had been trained like agents since childhood. He started acting and studying very early, and he didn't touch the business of Ghost Town. Few people in Ghost Town had seen the Sixth Young Master.
He had always been wandering outside the Ghost Town. He was not as good at fighting as his brothers, but he had enough self-protection and was better than ordinary bodyguards. Last night was too sudden, and he was caught off guard for a while. He was held in front of Yang Bo. The bullet didn't have eyes, and taught him a lesson.
In the chaos, he seemed to see a pair of familiar eyes, calling his name all the time. His hands were as warm as in his memory. His consciousness was almost blurred, and he heard someone calling Xiaoliu in his ear.
Gu Xie pursed his lips. He also saw Lin Xiaojuan's despair and hesitation. He thought he would never see her again, so he felt scared.
"Dad, I made you worry. I won't do it again next time."
"I'm glad to know." Erye said, "The one outside is your girlfriend."
"Yes!"
"Well, if you're almost done, you can bring her home and talk about marriage. There's no need to talk about love for too long."
"Okay, Dad." Gu Xie chuckled. He knew that his family would not oppose his love. No matter who he married, as long as he liked it, it would be fine. From childhood to adulthood, Erye gave him enough freedom to let him choose his favorite career and the person he liked.
"You are more competitive than your brothers. You may be the first to get married." Gu Erye thought of a bunch of troublesome sons and felt tired.
The youngest daughter, on the contrary, has a seven-year-old son.
The marriages of his brothers are not settled.
"Dad, the second brother..."
"Don't worry, you should take good care of your injuries." Gu Erye said.
"I'm afraid he will go and cause trouble for Yang Bo. After all, he is the new mayor and a member of the Yang family. We have always had some conflicts with him. There is no need to provoke them."
"You know there is no need to provoke, why did you hit Yang Bo?"
"I hit him as Gu Xie, not the sixth young master of Ghost Town, and he doesn't know who I am. Second brother is different. His identity has been made public, and I am safe and sound. There is no need to provoke him."
"Don't worry." Second Master Gu said firmly, "Your second brother is sensible and will not cause trouble. He... cares about you very much."
Gu Xie lowered his head, and Second Master patted him gently on the hand, "I told you a long time ago that Yuan An's matter has nothing to do with him. You don't believe it. In this world, seeing is believing, and it may not be true."
"Dad, I..." The knot of many years may not be untied for a while.
The second master said, "It's good that you know it in your heart. Brothers don't hold grudges overnight."
He and Gu Xie have said these words for many years, but Gu Xie has never listened to them. Gu Yuanli and Gu Xie don't know why they have never been very close since childhood. Gu Xie is the best with his eldest brother and likes to stick to him.
Gu Yuanli has always been very distant from him. Moreover, when Gu Yuanli was a teenager, he was super rebellious, which is very different from his calmness now. He also has no patience for raising children. Over time, the relationship between the two brothers has become a little weaker.
Fortunately, it's not too late to turn back.
