Chapter 130: Shaken
Guo Qihu stopped the movement of his feet, at this moment Guo Hongniu slowly raised his head, that old face looked extremely tired, but despite this, his sleepiness was still very shallow, he had such a habit since he was young, it seemed that the things he was carrying had never made Guo Hongniu dare to really fall asleep.
Guo Hongniu supported the table with one hand, and it was a little difficult to get up just by getting up, at this time Guo Qihu walked up quickly to prepare to help, but Guo Hongniu refused Guo Qihu's kindness, he seemed unwilling to admit that he had grown old to this point.
"Old man, your body is important, let's go down and eat something first. Guo Qihu looked at the trembling Guo Hongniu, and couldn't help frowning deeply.
Guo Hongniu shook his head silently, and walked to the curtain with heavy steps to open it, allowing sunlight to enter the study.
The dazzling sunlight made him unable to open his eyes for a while, but gradually got used to it, and he looked at the world that was rejuvenated after the rain with his hands behind his back, but because he was too old, this scene felt not like a new life, but towards destruction.
"What did you ask?" Guo Hongniu finally spoke, perhaps in his heart, he had generally found the answer from Guo Qihu's face with a not very good expression.
Guo Qihu shook his head slightly and said, "She didn't say anything. β
Guo Hongniu had a calm face, of course, this was the thing he was most dissatisfied with, he thought that Guo Qihu was still soft-hearted, and couldn't help but say: "Still can't bear to start?"
Because the sound insulation effect of this study is extremely good, Guo Hongniu did not notice the sound that made the entire villa sleepless.
Guo Qihu silently lowered his head and said: "Until she finally passed out, she didn't speak, five places, five places." β
Guo Hongniu's expression suddenly froze, as if he had heard something unbelievable, what this meant, he knew better than anyone else, because he had empathized with it, he felt that this story was very fantastical, extremely fantastic, but this fantasy story became a reality.
It took a few minutes for Guo Hongniu to digest the disappearance that had changed some of his outlook on life, he slowly turned his head and said with an extremely deep expression: "Would you rather die than say?"
Guo Qihu nodded, his face was pale, as if the whole person had lost his soul, of course, Guo Hongniu obviously noticed this, and said in a trembling voice: "Is all this the will of heaven or the destiny of heaven? Maybe from the beginning, I shouldn't have promised this marriage." β
In the end, Guo Hongniu's voice was already a little weak.
Guo Qihu looked at Guo Hongniu who said these words with some surprise, because in his memory, Guo Hongniu, who has always been strong, almost never said such a thing, and his heart was slowly filled with a kind of admiration for Guo Yinling, even if she did not change such a river and lake, did not shake the Guo family, but at least, she has changed this stubborn old man.
But although Guo Hongniu had a trace of remorse in his heart, there was no turning back, he said: "In the past two days, don't do anything to her, you can't ask anything at this point, and it makes no sense to give her pain." β
Guo Qihu nodded silently, even if Guo Hongniu still didn't plan to let go of Guo Yinling, he didn't want to be this executioner anymore, he felt that he had already been shaken, he no longer had such confidence, he began to doubt whether what he was doing was good or bad.
"Today, Qilin will rush back, as for whether someone above wants to rectify the Guo family, I have already called your second uncle, he promised to investigate, Mrs. Li has already notified me, and the Li family has also begun to meddle in this matter, and about Tang Baichuan, it may just be a coincidence, you don't need to do anything now, and you can't do anything anymore, you go and rest, let everyone get together at night and discuss how to face this wedding." Guo Hongniu arranged, the only road he can pave is these, no matter how hard he wants to work, there is no place to exert force.
Guo Qihu listened, nodded weakly, it seemed that he had already been indifferent to all this, so he turned around and left, but just after taking three steps, he stopped, turned his head to look at the old man who supported most of the Guo family, or the entire Guo family, and said: "Old man, there is such a thing, I don't know whether to talk about it or not." β
Guo Hongniu squinted his eyes slightly, he had already seen Guo Qihu's strange appearance, and he said, "Say it." β
"I began to wonder if we were doing something wrong. He said, although he knew that he shouldn't have said such a thing in front of Guo Hongniu, he still said it, because whenever he thought of that thin woman, he couldn't let go of it.
Guo Hongniu was not angry, but looked at Guo Qihu with a cold face and said: " Do you know how many mouths the Guo family has to eat, maybe this incident is a tragedy, if this tragedy does not continue, the entire Guo family needs to pay a painful price for this, this way does not need to ask whether it is right or wrong, there are sacrifices in every step, I like that you can look at the road in front of you, not those things that have been walked behind you, the road of the Guo family is still very long, this is a quagmire, there are still three days, just stick to it for three days, if even you can't be relied on, you let me, an old man, take my life and only support, I can't support this banner. β
After Guo Qihu listened to it for such a long time, although he understood these truths very well, but these obviously extraordinarily powerful things made him unable to be firm, his eyes were still so gloomy, and he said: "Old man, this time is not in the past, I need a period of time to settle down." β
Guo Hongniu nodded slightly.
Guo Qihu left like this, and Guo Hongniu just looked at Guo Qihu's back, and his face slowly revealed a gloomy, or deep viciousness, but in front of Guo Qihu, he hid it very cleverly, so ingenious that even Guo Qihu didn't notice anything.
He turned around slowly, and the old man who was as old as dead wood slowly grasped the edge of the window, and said coldly: "Guo Yinling, I really underestimated you, I didn't expect you to shake half of the Guo family." β
And those pains are not worth his emotion, this is Guo Hongniu, a person who has fought for the Guo family all his life, bowed his head countless times, and even broke his teeth and swallowed it in his stomach. He doesn't care whether he is a good person or a bad person, he won't care about this naΓ―ve question like Guo Qihu, all he cares about is this Guo family, which is his unshakable faith.
The price he paid for the Guo family was unimaginable to all the Guo family, so in his opinion, her suffering was far worse than his own beliefs only to this extent.
