"You listen to me, this matter must be stopped. Sixth Brother cannot be killed."
The old lady smiled faintly and said: "Unless you become the head of the family, there is no need for me to listen to you, right? As for whether I can kill Ziqi, and whether he will become an enemy of the Huo family, so what? He is so old. Now, will I be afraid?"
The old lady didn't seem to take it to heart. She said: "If I can't kill him, then he will come to take revenge. After all, at my age, I am not afraid of death."
She smiled, not caring at all.
Gu Tingyun has always known that his grandmother was not a kind and gentle old man. She was able to control the Huo family well when his grandfather and son were young. No one would believe her if she said she was a simple person.
He took a deep breath and said, "Why are you doing this? Maybe Sixth Brother really wants to live a good life with you? In fact, it is the same for everyone. The most taboo is to judge others by yourself. What you are doing now That's right. Grandma, I know it's inappropriate to say this, but I really beg you. Please let Brother Six go! Everything he does now is intentional. He deliberately let you or his second uncle kill him. .”
The old lady sneered and said, "Deliberately asking us to kill him? Isn't he looking for death himself? Why?"
Gu Tingyun said: "To give up, he wanted to give up on the Huo family, so he created an opportunity for you to kill him. If he really does it, I think Brother Six is also prepared. But do you know? I don't want you to really fight with Liu." Bro, let’s break up. I don’t want you to really regret it one day. Because he is also your biological grandson!”
Gu Tingyun persuaded him earnestly.
He is not a kind-hearted person, but everyone has someone they care about.
Like that's the case now.
He took a deep breath: "Grandma, can't I beg you?"
The old lady looked at Gu Tingyun intently and said slowly: "I can't promise you. Unless... \"
Gu Tingyun's eyelids twitched and he had a bad feeling. Sure enough, Mrs. Huo said, "Unless you promise me to come back and be the head of the family."
The old lady smiled: "You are the head of the Huo family, so I will listen to you. But on the contrary, I will not listen to any of your opinions."
Gu Tingyun narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly realized that this was his grandmother's plan. Everything she was doing now may not be without suspicion. She could not guess Huo Ziqi's thoughts at all. But she was willing to follow the script he had arranged, because she was planning this round on him.
At that moment, Gu Tingyun felt like laughing for no reason.
Sure enough, that's true.
People in the Huo family really don't have a fuel-efficient lamp.
He took a deep breath and said: "If this is the case, I will directly stop him. I think with my friendship with Brother Six, he will be persuaded by me."
He turned and left.
The old lady said: "It's too late. Why do you think I waste my time talking to you here? It's too late for you to leave now."
Gu Tingyun smiled and said, "I thought about it, but until the end, no one can say it's too late."
"Would you rather fight alongside him than take over the Huo family?"
Gu Tingyun said: "Yes!"
He turned around and said very seriously: "Actually, we all know that the Huo family must belong to Huo Xiao."
He lowered his head with a touch of desolation: "His parents died because of the Huo family, and his leg was broken because of the Huo family. He has worked hard for the Huo family for nearly twenty years. He has paid so much for the Huo family. , why should I take away the Huo family? In fact, we all feel sorry for him. "
The old lady was surprised: "You... know?"
She never expected this.
She thought it would be a secret forever.
He also once thought whether the reason why Yuan Yuan was determined not to compete with Huo Xiao for the Huo family was because he got Tang Jiao, but he never expected that it turned out not to be the case.
Is this what he's doing
The old lady fell silent again.
Gu Tingyun said: "I'm going to find Brother Six."
The old lady suddenly said: "No need."
She said lightly: "I changed my mind."
Gu Tingyun was stunned.
The old lady said: "I did want to kill him at first, but I changed my mind at the last moment."
Gu Tingyun looked at the old lady with deep eyes.
The old lady sneered, rolled her eyes at him, and said, "What? Don't you believe me?"
Gu Tingyun smiled and said, "I believe it. I believe everything my grandmother says."
The old lady said coldly: "Humph, I thought you didn't believe it."
Gu Tingyun re-entered the door and said, "You are talking about my grandmother. I have no reason not to believe what you said."
It turns out that the old lady and Mr. Huo really planned to kill Huo Ziqi and frame the Chu family. This would not only reverse the previous incident with Miss Chu, but also completely eliminate Huo Ziqi. The old lady has always found Huo Ziqi to be an eyesore, and that's still the case now.
But after all, Jiang is old and hot, so the old lady thought of another possibility when Mr. Huo had already arranged it.
Although it seemed natural that Huo Ziqi liked Tang Jiao, it revealed too much unreasonableness.
She had seen them getting along. If she liked someone, she couldn't hide it no matter what, but he really didn't show it. It was precisely because of this that she became suspicious.
There was no love in his eyes.
No one wants to seek death, but what if it is to completely break with the Huo family!
What if it’s to make yourself give up
Everything doesn't seem impossible anymore.
Almost as soon as the old lady thought of this, she made another plan. She still arranged for someone to kill Huo Ziqi, but at the same time she arranged for someone to rescue him.
She wasn't sure how much information Ting Yun could get, but as long as he got a little bit, he would come to plead for mercy.
At this time, she could ask Ting Yun to take over the position of the head of the family.
If they don't agree or don't know, they can also pass the assassination onto the Chu family.
She had done this kind of thing decades ago, and there was no technical content at all.
"I arranged for Huo Xiao to rescue him, so you can rest assured."
Gu Tingyun pondered for a moment and nodded: "Grandma, I realize that I don't actually know you very well."
The seemingly indifferent old man turned out to be secretive. For the first time, Gu Tingyun felt that he could not judge people accurately.
The old lady smiled lightly and said, "If you come back and take over, you will know what kind of person I am."
Gu Tingyun waved his hand and said, "I'm scared."
The old lady glared at him: "Don't pretend to me, I also know what kind of person you are. All the children of our Huo family are scheming. Whether it is you or Ziqi, I will fight when I get along with you. You may be fooled by your 120,000 spirit. After all, the most upright and upright person in the Huo family is actually Ah Xiao. He is not from the Huo family, so he is the least like the Huo family. Although everyone Everyone knows how cruel he is. But in fact, he is just loyal to the Huo family. This is not his nature. "
Gu Tingyun nodded and agreed with this.
Where the grandfather and grandson were sitting, they actually felt a little emotional.
However, Gu Tingyun did not wait too long. After a while, he heard some noise outside.
The maid immediately reported: "Old madam, Master Xiao and Master Ziqi are back together."
After the report was over, the two of them came in.
Huo Xiao's arm was injured, but it was not serious.
The old lady immediately said: "Ah Xiao, sit down quickly and let me take a look at your arms."
Then he glared at Huo Ziqi: "Are you blind? He is injured. If you don't take him to see a doctor quickly, you will come back like this. How stupid are you?"
She had finished ranting and said, "Go and get someone."
Huo Ziqi didn't explain anything, but quickly arranged for someone to call the doctor.
After the bandage was finished, the old lady said: "Next time, just be considerate in saving people, don't work so hard. Anyway, the person who goes there won't kill him, so it doesn't matter if he gets a little glory."
Even though the old lady said something so unpleasant, Huo Ziqi was not unhappy at all.
However, Huo Xiao replied seriously, as if he really listened to the old lady's words.
Gu Tingyun sat aside and looked at them, and said, "Since nothing happens, I will go back."
Huo Xiao also stood up: "We're leaving together. I'll go back and change clothes too."
His clothes were very dirty.
Gu Tingyun smiled and went out with him.
The old lady and Huo Ziqi were the only ones left in the room.
Huo Ziqi lowered his head. After a long while, he finally looked up at the old lady and asked, "Grandma, why didn't you really send someone to kill me?"
He did mean to say that he liked Tang Jiao. He just wanted to see if the Huo family would attack him. If they did, he would have nothing to worry about.
But no, the assassination was fake.
Not only was it fake, Huo Xiao also led someone to rescue him.
What they sang this time... He actually had no way to say that he could hate the Huo family so much that he would kill the Huo family.
"Why?"
he asked very rationally.
"Why don't you kill me?"
The old lady calmly said: "I wanted to kill him, but after thinking about it, he is still my grandson, so I gave up."
Huo Ziqi's eyes moved slightly, and his eyes were very deep.
"Everyone has arranged it, so we can't waste it. Just kill him casually and frame the Chu family. It's not a waste."
Huo Ziqi fell silent.
For some reason, he actually found the situation in front of him a bit funny.
Moreover, he was not so worried anymore.
Sometimes a person's relief may be just one thing, and that's what he is now.
Everything good and bad about the Huo family seemed to be relieved at once.
He smiled and said slowly: "Grandma, I suddenly understood why I can't be ruthless. It turns out that it's all hereditary. Your ruthlessness will really kill me. Me too!"
He said seriously: "I really wanted to be able to escape the curse of the Huo family, but obviously, I failed again."
