Chapter 547 The Young Nowadays
After moving out of Zhao Jin’s villa, Gao Ge goes to the Yue Family with Xia Lu and others.
Yue Xincheng has a say in the Yue Family, so there is no problem for sure. Yue Tuzhi is the decision-maker but he is not stupid. He has a sense of propriety, or he couldn’t make the Yue Family grow through the converging attack of the Ning Family and the Zhao Family at such a young age. Technically, he takes the two families by hand, who defeats them overwhelmingly in terms of stratagem.
Gao Ge dislikes Yue Tuzhi, or even hates him, but he has to admit that Yue Tuzhi is quite smart.
When they’ve just settled down, Yue Xincheng comes to Gao Ge.
“Boss, you are such a genius!”
“Don’t talk rot,” Gao Ge says impatiently.
Yue Xincheng says laughingly, “Didn’t Zhao Jin give you some estate? As you said, the Zhao Family took them all back. Luckily, we didn’t live there. Otherwise, we will be more than embarrassed. It seems really not Zhao Shuheng’s own idea but the Zhao Family’s, or he cannot do that.”
Gao Ge nods his head.
This is within Gao Ge’s expectation.
According to Yue Xincheng, Zhao Shuheng doesn’t hold a high position in the Zhao Family, about which Gao Ge is not surprised at all.
If it is not the Zhao Family’s idea, Zhao Shuheng can never have the guts to do that.
“Zhao Xing is such an idiot! Boss, you helped them connect the Dragon Court and this is how they repay you? Idiot! Short-sighted!” Yue Xincheng shakes his head and heaves a sigh, “Just now Yue Tuzhi called me.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What did he say?” Gao Ge asks.
“What could he say? He simply asks me to help you, no matter what you need. Moreover, the Yue Family will be under the control of me for the following coming days.” Yue Xincheng sneers, “When Yue Tuzhi was talking, his delight was so obvious. He is not a fool. He must know that as long as you act against the Zhao Family, the Zhao Family can never continue sustaining in Jiangnan City anymore. Alas...”
Gao Ge laughs.
He knows that Yue Tuzhi is smart.
Now it is proven again.
The Ning Family has declined. If the Zhao Family also falls down, the Yue Family will be the only one ancient martial arts family in Jiangnan City and thus able to stride forward without worries behind.
Gao Ge is aware of Yue Tuzhi’s intention, but he doesn’t want to disappoint Yue Tuzhi.
After all, it is not for Yue Tuzhi’s sake, but Gao Ge himself wants to vent his anger.
Soon, an old man serves tea to Gao Ge and his friends.
Gao Ge has met the old man when he came to the Yue Family before. The old man seems to be a presbyter of the family. Even Yue Xincheng is respectful to the old.
“Mr. Gao, please have some tea.” The old man passes the tea to Gao Ge.
“Put it there first,” Gao Ge says smilingly, “I’m afraid that it is poisonous.”
The old man is stunned and then giggles like a hen, “Mr. Gao, you must be kidding.”
“You work for Yue Tuzhi. I have to be cautious!” Gao Ge says, “Sit down.”
“Thank you, Mr. Gao.” The old man sits down and heaves a sigh, “Mr. Gao, actually, it is rather surprising to me that you’ve become so strong within such a short period of time. Luckily, the Yue Family didn’t create difficulty for you. Otherwise, I’m afraid that the Yue Family would no longer exist.”
With a glint of coldness in his eyes, Gao Ge takes a sip of tea and says sternly, “Are you sure that the Yue Family has never created difficulty for me?”
The old man’s eyes slightly glisten. He smiles and then keeps silent.
“Yue Xincheng calls you Third Elder. Then I will follow his suit. Third Elder, I can’t bother to ask what Yue Tuzhi ordered you to do. I just feel sorry for you. After all, you didn’t succeed in killing me. And it is impossible for you to kill me in the future, is it?”
The old man says smilingly, “Mr. Gao, you must be kidding. You are Master Xincheng’s friend, certainly making you a friend of the Yue Family’s.”
Gao Ge waves his hand, “The past is past. After all, we must look forward and cannot wallow in the past. Third Elder, tell me, what do you know about Zhao Xing?”
The old man takes a deep breath and says calmly, “It’s hard to say.”
“Does Yue Tuzhi ask to hide from me?”
Slightly surprised, the old man says smilingly, “Since you’ve said so, I can only talk bluntly. You know what Master Tuzhi is thinking about. Indeed, he hopes to sit on top of the mountain to watch the tigers fight. Hopefully, you will expel the Zhao Family out of Jiangnan City and we just need to push the boat along with the current. Without the Ning Family and the Zhao Family, nothing can hinder the Yue Family from developing. Of course, the Yue Family cannot expand within a short period of time and still need to rest for some time.”
“You can also take the opportunity to merge the Zhao Family, right?”
The old man laughs. It is very apparent. There is no need for any argument. Besides, he is not worried that Gao Ge sees through it.
He continues talking, “Zhao Xing is not a smart man, but since he is the master of the Zhao Family, he cannot be a fool. There are so many people of the Zhao Family. Even if some of them are idiots, they cannot understand nothing. Even Zhao Jin can think it through. How can all the people of the Zhao Family be blinded?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGao Ge slightly nods his head for a rest, waiting for the old man to go on talking.
Yue Xincheng sitting aside looks weird.
He also starts to ponder.
The old man stays silent for a moment and continues talking, “So, Mr. Gao, if you ask me, I dare to say that what the Zhao Family did is really stupid, absurdly stupid. Zhao Xing should never have done it. It is such an offensive and thankless thing.”
Gao Ge nods his head, opens his eyes, lights up a cigarette and then throws the cigarette pack on the table.
“Third Elder, you mean there is something wrong behind?”
“Sure,” The old man puffs on his pipe, saying, “You must have thought of it, so you asked me about it, right?”
Gao Ge laughs and says, “I do feel something abnormal with the Zhao Family, but I was only asking. No matter why they did this, I cannot just stand being bullied by them, can I?”
The old man, puffing on his pipe, nods his head, “No wonder that Master Tuzhi told me to tell you everything. It turns out that he has anticipated that you would hold killing intent. After all, you could get the answer even if you didn’t ask me. If I hid it from you, I would make a big mistake.”
“Your young master is smart indeed, so he should have planned what to do next, right?” Gao Ge says.
The old man feels rather astonished. He takes a breath and takes out a document from his clothes.
“This is about what the Zhao Family have done over the recent years. As long as it is revealed, the Zhao Family will be universally condemned,” The old man says, “It is Master Tuzhi who asks me to hand it over to you.”
After saying that, the old man stands up, turns around and leaves.
He is already wet with cold sweat.
Are the young so horrid now? His young master and Gao Ge don’t have a direct talk but they both seem to know what the other party will say and do.
It seems that he is really old...
