Gu Jingze said directly, "So, today, none of you can touch a single hair on Lin Che."
"How dare they …"
"That's right. This is outrageous."
"Lin Che is a scourge."
Gu Jingze snorted. "How is she not a scourge? I see that you want to force her to commit such a crime. If we let you take her away and interrogate her, isn't she a scourge?"
It was common for the Gu family to interrogate people in private.
Moreover, some of the interrogations were much more vicious.
Those who were interrogated might lose half their lives after they left.
How could Gu Jingze allow them to take Lin Che away for investigation and interrogation? Based on how much they hated Lin Che, it was very likely that they would torture him to confess.
So, even if he had to fight with them, he would not let them take Lin Che away.
"No, we can't let you take Lin Che away like this." The relatives disagreed and shouted.
At this moment, Gu Jingyu, who had been acting frivolously just now, stopped acting. He stood at the back and listened attentively. Hearing what everyone said, he said, "I think that since we don't have any evidence, let's not use numbers to oppress others. I'm on Lin Che's side. You can't think that Lin Che is a murderer just because she saw her grandfather for the last time, right? Let's not talk about anything else. Grandfather had a heart attack, not a murder."
Seeing that Gu Jingyu was on Lin Che's side, everyone looked at Lin Che angrily. This woman was really a scourge.
The two Gu brothers had been deceived by her.
A relative said, "Fine, fine. If you don't let us interrogate her, then you are unfilial. Filial piety is the most important thing for us. How could you disregard your grandfather's life just to protect a woman? We don't want a family head like you."
"That's right. Either hand over Lin Che or hand over the position of the family head!"
Gu Jingze narrowed his eyes. "Lin Che, let's go."
He grabbed Lin Che fiercely with one hand and looked outside. "I want to see who dares to block my way when I become the family head. The Gu family will listen to my orders. Whoever dares to come near will be punished according to the family rules!"
The group of security guards outside would definitely listen to the family head's orders first.
"You …"
Seeing that Gu Jingze was so tough, the others didn't give up on Lin Che. They directly pulled Lin Che through the excited crowd and walked out.
Gu Jingyu also followed them out. When he was outside, he turned his head and said, "You say that we are unfilial, but why don't you take a look at yourself first? When did my grandfather's life and death become your business?"
Everyone was stunned.
Logically speaking, they were all collateral relatives. Indeed, their grandfather had died and they were the ones making the decisions. However, they were not convinced.
They were definitely going to use this opportunity to find something to do.
Otherwise, if the only person who supported them passed away just like that, what would they do in the future?
"Are you trying to drive us out of the Gu family?" Gu Jingyu's relatives looked at Gu Jingyu.
Gu Jingyu said, "Heh, you can leave the Gu family if you want to. Who can stop you?"
"You …"
Some people were so angry that they were about to vomit blood.
Outside, because An Lan wasn't a member of the Gu Family, he couldn't follow them in just now. At this moment, it seemed that the commotion outside had gotten out of hand. He looked through the window to see what was going on.
He saw many people shouting in the courtyard. Outside, the Gu Family's powerful security surrounded them. It seemed that the situation was urgent.
Mu Wanqing came in and saw that An Lan was still there. She quickly said, "Child, I'm sorry about today. Something happened at home and I can't receive you again."
An Lan quickly said, "No, no, I know. My condolences. I should have left, but I had to wait here for you to say goodbye."
"Okay, okay. Child, you can leave first. I can't take care of you today."
An Lan vaguely understood that Gu Jingze had protected Lin Che and left. It seemed that it had something to do with Lin Che.
Gu Jingze mobilized all the security guards to ensure that the two of them could leave.
Then, he ordered people to keep an eye on the clan members who were causing trouble inside and didn't allow anyone to leave.
After sending Lin Che back, he came back to deal with the matter.
On one hand, he blocked all the news from the media, and on the other, he prepared to handle the funeral.
It could be said that he had used a thunderous method to quickly control the entire Gu family.
This kind of man was really … so charming.
It was a pity that he was already married.
However, An Lan realized that Gu Jingyu's behavior was also very unusual.
He was like a completely different person from the hedonistic young master just now. Lin Che, who had protected him for a while, then unceremoniously suppressed others. From afar, his expression was serious and his expression was touching.
Then what was going on just now? Was Gu Jingyu so serious to protect Lin Che?
Why were they so protective of Lin Che? Who exactly was Lin Che?
Lin Che quickly went back first.
Gu Jingyu was worried that something would happen to her, so he rushed over.
Lin Che stood at the window and looked outside.
Gu Jingyu hesitated for a moment and walked over. "Alright, don't worry. Second Brother won't let anything happen to you."
Lin Che said, "I know that he won't let anything happen to me, but I'm worried that he will let something happen to himself."
Gu Jingyu chuckled. "That won't happen. Nothing has happened to those who can hurt him."
"That's true, but I can see that the clansmen are very unstable. They are very agitated."
Gu Jingyu said, "That's right. After all, Grandpa used to be their spiritual pillar. Because of Grandpa leading the opposition against Second Brother, they felt that there was still hope. Now that Grandpa suddenly passed away, of course they are very worried. They are worried that Second Brother will become the head of the family and no one can control him."
Lin Che said, "Doesn't that mean that they might really hurt Gu Jingze?"
"But Second Brother won't be hurt for no reason."
Lin Che pinched his chin and thought about what had happened just now.
"Are the results of Grandpa's examination out?"
"Yes, it's a heart attack."
"There's nothing else, right?"
"Yes."
"Could it really be an accident? But it's too much of a coincidence."
"I also hope that it's an accident, but anything can happen in the Gu family," he said. "I will ask someone to check it out."
Lin Che said, "There's no need. You don't have to worry too much about me. I'm thinking why I was the last person to see Grandpa. I don't seem to have said anything special to him. Why did Grandpa have a heart attack? Moreover, I can see that the medicine was beside him just now. Why didn't Grandpa take it?"
"Yes. Although Grandpa's body isn't good, he still has the ability to move. Could it be that his heart attack suddenly made him unable to take the medicine?"
"Is it certain that he won't have a heart attack if he takes the medicine?"
"Nothing is absolute," Gu Jingyu said. Gu Jingyu said, "But that medicine is much better than the nitroglycerin that makes people upset. It was developed by Second Brother's research lab. It's purer and can slow down most heart attacks. At least, it won't kill people in a short period of time."
