C425 Borrowing a knife to kill someone

When Gu Changfeng heard this, he frowned. He looked at Tang Chong, who was originally by his side, but then realised that Yue Yang had long since disappeared. Only then did he feel that he had fallen into a trap.    

    

His two fists tightly clenched as he thought in his heart: Tang Chong, you bastard, I will never forgive you!    

    

That's right, no matter what, Zhou Hui was her sister's boyfriend. Even if the two of them had conflicting interests in the future, they were still on the same boat.    

    

Seeing that the time was right, Gu Yunlei waved his hand and laughed: "Everyone, today is the day of my wedding. Thank you all for coming, I, Gu Shenwei do not have any benefits to share with you all, it's just that there's a small lake in my backyard, and beside the lake there are some ores that have been transported back from Myanmar. Everyone can take a look if you are interested."    

    

"Wow, Patriarch Gu's ore!"    

    

"Those are all good materials from Burma, but they're all rare and precious things."    

    

"I've heard before that Old Man Gu randomly bestowed one to a servant. It's said that he had created an ice seed and sold it for over a million."    

    

A few rich young masters and youths who hadn't seen much of the world were whispering to each other.    

    

However, at this moment, a ruddy-faced woman who appeared to be in her forties or fifties slowly walked over, holding the arm of a young, pretty girl beside her.    

    

With a smile, he said: "Old Gu, we have been friends for so many years. Is it not appropriate for you to let us play with the ores in your lake?"    

    

Her name was Zhao Xueyan, and she was the Patriarch of one of the Four Great Clans, the Zhao Family. The pretty girl beside her was her daughter, named Zhao Meng.    

    

She was beautiful, and it didn't have anything to do with her intricacy. Just by looking at her, one would feel like a lady from a noble family. She seemed very well-mannered, and didn't seem the least bit ostentatious.    

    

Hearing Zhao Xue Yun's words, Gu Yunlei laughed out loud, and said: "Patriarch Zhao, today, the ores in my lake are extraordinary, and I would like to invite Patriarch Gu to come with me to enjoy the scenery."    

    

"If you like it, Patriarch Zhao, I'll give you one so that you can choose as you please, okay?"    

    

"If that's the case, then I won't be polite. Little Meng, let's go!"    

    

With that, Gu Yunlei gave the order and the entire banquet was transferred to the garden lake in the backyard.    

    

Gu Yunlei and Zhao Xue Yun sat on the upper seat. There was another person beside them who had a gloomy face, and did not look too good. This person was also one of the Four Great Clans of the Pujiang City, the Clan Master of the Tang Clan, Tang Zhenlong.    

    

He had previously instructed his butler to go and invite Zhou Hui, but he was actually rejected. He had even endured the matter of his own son getting beaten up with the intent of making friends with Zhou Hui, the leader of the Qing Gang. He wanted to prepare for his future plans.    

    

However, Zhou Hui actually dared to be so bold, and did not give him any face, but today, he dressed up like a dog and came to participate in the Gu family's birthday banquet, wasn't this just slapping his face?    

    

Thus, his expression was not good, and his mood was extremely bad.    

    

If not for his pride, hmph, he might have already personally taught this arrogant Zhou Hui a lesson.    

    

"Patriarch Gu, let's not talk about all those useless things. Today is your birthday, so I don't have anything to give you. Son, bring it up."    

    

After Tang Zhenlong finished speaking, Tang Chong quickly took out a box from his chest and respectfully placed it on the table.    

    

Tang Zhenlong then continued, "Head of the Gu family, there is a 300 year old ginseng in here. Consider it my intentions."    

    

With Tang Zhenlong starting to give his birthday present, Zhao Xue Yun, who was by the side, did not want to be outdone and gave a meaningful glance to Zhao Meng, who was beside her.    

    

"Master Tang is indeed magnanimous. This year, 300 years of life is really rare."    

    

"Humph!" Tang Zhenlong only coldly snorted. The two families already had a grudge.    

    

Gu Yunlei, who was seated at the head of the table, laughed out loud: "The two of you, please give me some face today. Everyone here is a friend, and for the sake of our Pujiang City's future peace, we must co-exist peacefully."    

    

However, everyone knew very well that he was only saying perfunctory things and would not have any effect.    

    

At this moment, Zhao Meng had already taken out the gift she had prepared a long time ago.    

    

With smiles filling his eyes, he said respectfully to Gu Yunlei, "This is a good item that my mother brought back from Mi Nation with great money.    

    

Zhao Xueyan nodded slightly. When Gu Yunlei opened it and looked, a ray of light flashed through his eyes.    

    

Immediately after, all the rich people started to send congratulatory gifts to Gu Yunlei. This was the most interesting part of the birthday celebration.    

    

When the ceremony was about to end, a man suddenly came in from the main courtyard. He looked to be in his twenties. He was dressed in magnificent clothes, but one of his hands were against his chest. He clearly hadn't recovered yet.    

    

This person was Liu Fan, he carried a small gift box, and confidently walked to Gu Yunlei's side. He paused for a moment, his gaze sweeping across everything, and finally landing on Zhou Hui, his heart full of hatred.    

    

However, he still forced out a smile and said to Gu Yunlei: "Uncle Gu, my father's health is unwell. Please forgive me if I am unable to personally come to offer you my birthday."    

    

Gu Yunlei's face did not change, but he stopped smiling and calmly replied: It's fine!    

    

With that said, Liu Fan quickly opened the lid of the box, and a refreshing fragrance immediately wafted out, causing a huge commotion.    

    

With a face full of pride, Liu Fan introduced the fruit to Gu Yunlei: "Uncle Gu, this fruit was obtained by my father with great effort. My father heard that your cultivation had reached a bottleneck, and he believed that this fruit would definitely bring you endless benefits."    

    

This fruit was called the Qi Gathering Fruit. This fruit grew in an extremely poor environment, and was rarely picked by anyone, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon. It was able to help cultivators break through bottlenecks, and was indeed a treasure.    

    

Although his cultivation had reached a bottleneck and was in urgent need of a breakthrough, the reason the Liu Family had gifted him such a treasure was obviously to help Liu Fan get back at him.    

    

He knew that Zhou Hui had beaten Liu Fan quite badly that day, if not he would not still be in a plaster cast right now. However, after thinking about it, Gu Yunlei smiled and said: "I appreciate your kind intentions, I'll also accept your gifts. Go back and tell your father, our two families still have a lot of business to do in the future."    

    

In fact, Gu Yunlei had already thought about it long ago. Even if he accepted this fruit, he would not change his previous thoughts.    

    

Although this fruit was a treasure, it could not immediately increase his cultivation. As such, it would be better to give this fruit to Zhou Hui when the time comes, so that he could have a breakthrough in his cultivation.
