BXBX NOVEL Chapter 396: 226
Because behind Jianmu, there’s still a master to consider, he would definitely care about his image in his master’s eyes.
Let me elevate Gao Wenyuan to a high position and let her use her ambition to contribute to the family!
Gao Wenyuan can’t fool me with her acting, but deceiving a teenager shouldn’t be hard.
Tea-loving, delicate young ladies like She Wan, a legitimate noble lady, probably wouldn’t know how to handle it.
Listening to Gao Wenyuan’s feigned excitement and joy, and the surprised, radiant smile on her face.
Gao Hongying raised his hand to adjust the rhododendron-shaped brooch on Gao Wenyuan.
“I will have the family’s resources for noble ladies prepared for you from our stockhouse.”
“Having a noble lady in the Gao family is a great joy, the day after tomorrow which is the eve of the Fisherman’s Festival I will arrange a banquet for you.”
“Go ahead, prepare well.”
Watching Gao Wenyuan leave, Gao Hongying squeezed the carved piece in his hand.
Then he picked up the cold tea from the table and drank it all in one go.
In the next two days, people from the Zhao, Wu, and He Families will definitely visit the She Family.
The She family is at a critical point of selecting the next family head, it’s a moment of brewing storm.
She Rui, as the oldest and third in line among the core direct descendants, has always suppressed She Ruan and She Long.
She Yue, ranked fourth in the She family, due to his physical disability, has never been in the competition for the position of family head.
She Ruan is She Wan’s father, She Wan definitely sides her father, She Ruan, in the shifts of familial power.
She Rui and She Hang has always suppressed She Ruan and She Long, this is not only due to their popularity in the family, but because She Rui has the support of the Zhao, Wu, and He Family.
The Five Clans of Lu City not only compete but also have cooperative relationships.
The other four clans also have a certain influence on the choice of the She Family’s Master.
Only the Gao Family has never clearly stated their stance.
If there wasn’t this incident prompting Gao Hongying to give his opinion, Gao Hongying would have eventually chosen She Rui and She Hang.
She Rui and She Hang talked to Gao Hongying a month ago, the compensation they offered was hard for Gao Hongying to refuse, let alone wanting to refuse.
However, Gao Hongying’s thoughts have changed; he plans to support She Ruan and She Long now.
As a price, he would ask She Ruan to attend the Gao family’s banquet with Jianmu, She Ruan will hardly refuse even if he is reluctant.
On one hand, She Ruan needs the support of the Gao family; the She family operates in Lu city.
The support of a Grandmaster Disciple is important, but having only the support of a Grandmaster Disciple is far from enough.
Because the high-star creator resources that flow out of Jianmu’s hand can only benefit a very small part of the family, but in fact, everyone in the family wants a piece of the pie.
So She Ruan has no reason to refuse him.
To She Ruan, Jianmu is also a part of the bargaining chip, and he would definitely dishonor himself to become the family head.
If She Rui becomes the head of the She Family, the latter would definitely not end up well given She Rui’s temperament.
On the other hand, the family itself will also put a lot of pressure on She Ruan; She Ruan cannot always keep Jianmu out of the public eye.
The banquet I’m hosting now is the best opportunity.
The familiarity between She Ruan and Jianmu seen by others at the banquet is the best proof that She Ruan and Jianmu are well acquainted.
The Five Clans of Lu City are absolutely top-notch forces in the entire Dragon Rising Federation. Gao Hongying believes that Jianmu would also love to make connections with the Five Clans of Lu City.
Maybe someday, one of the families in the Five Clans of Lu City could be of help to Fang Mu.
There’s a difference in business development direction among the Five Clans of Lu City-if the She family can’t help Jianmu, it doesn’t mean that other families can’t.
She Ruan should be pleased by such a good daughter he has and beaming with pride.
Gao Hongying had no idea that She Ruan was staring at his cellphone, crying and mourning, unsure of whether to call his beloved daughter She Wan.
She Ruan had already heard the news of Fang Mu’s arrival in Lu City.
However, She Ruan didn’t hear it from She Wan, but from his younger brother She Long.
There’s a rumor that Jianmu and She Wan showed up at Shi Xi Hotel together.
Having told She Ruan solemnly, She Long must have already verified it.
The news of Fang Mu and She Wan openly showing up at Shen Xi Hotel will soon spread.
Then, people in the family will hope to invite Fang Mu to visit the family in exchange for a chance to meet Jianmu.
This has She Ruan in a difficult position.
Giving She Wan a call before she tells him about Fang Mu’s actions could be unexpected, and might even cause her inconvenience.
She Long has been assisting She Ruan wholeheartedly for nearly thirty years. Seeing She Ruan’s expression, he knew what She Ruan was thinking.
She Long sighed and said.
“Brother, now is the final decisive moment between you and oldest brother.”
“I originally didn’t have any hope, but now hope has reappeared.”
“In my opinion, we should seize this opportunity no matter what and take a gamble!”
“If you don’t call She Wan, when people from our family ask, you won’t even have the ability to explain.”
“Even if Jianmu doesn’t want us to bother him, you should always understand the situation so you can explain to the family, right?”
