After all, the Gao family was backed by the Lu family. Who dared to provoke them?
However, there was someone who dared to touch the Gao family and even made an oath?
He couldn't care so much now. Even if it was a branch of the other five families, he had to tear off a piece of skin for beating his son.
Thinking about it, he turned his head and glanced at the steward, Gao Cheng, and said fiercely, "Gao Cheng, immediately send someone to find that kid and then come back to the residence. If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his corpse."
A vicious look flashed in Gao Xu's eyes. He quickly said, "Steward, my men have already followed that kid. You can ask them and they'll find him."
He couldn't wait anymore. He couldn't wait to trample on that reckless kid.
However, at this moment, a mocking voice came from outside.
"You still have the face to go home after being beaten?"
Gao Xu's eyes narrowed. He had a bad feeling.
This was because he knew that this was his big brother, the young master of the Gao family, Gao Ming.
This guy had been smart since he was young. He was familiar with the classics and history and was deeply doted on by his father. He heard that his father wanted to make this guy the heir of the Gao family.
However, he knew that his father liked him at the same time, so he didn't make this guy. It seemed that he was preparing to think about it.
He wasn't worried that the heir would fall into his big brother's hands. This was because his mother was deeply doted on by his father, and that big brother's mother had already fallen out of favor. Therefore, this big brother was now just a decoration in his eyes.
He responded rudely, "Gao Ming, what do you mean?"
As soon as his voice fell, a young man with a folding fan in his hand walked out from the side of the door. This young man had a delicate face with distinct features. In particular, his white clothes made him look fresh and refined. However, there was a hint of coldness in the corner of his eyes, giving people a very gloomy feeling.
"Second Brother, I'm your big brother. It's not good to call my real name like this, right?"
Gao Ming waved his folding fan, and the corner of his mouth outlined an indescribable smile.
"What's not good about it?"
Gao Shi snorted and curled his lips. "Didn't you just mock me?"
Gao Ming was about to speak, but Gao Xuan waved his hand and interrupted, "Alright, you two are brothers. What can't be solved? Why must you quarrel?"
These words left Gao Lu speechless. He originally wanted to ridicule Gao Lu, but he had no choice but to stop.
However, Gao Xu was unwilling to let it go. He tugged at Gao Xuan's sleeve and begged, "Father, I was beaten up. Big Brother is still mocking me. You should punish him. And that brat, you have to avenge me."
"Alright."
Gao Xuan flicked her sleeves impatiently and turned to look at Gao Cheng, who was standing by outside the door. "Gao Cheng, send someone to capture him immediately. If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his corpse."
Gao Cheng nodded and turned around to leave.
But at that moment, Gao Ming took a step forward. "Father, wait. I think there's something fishy about this."
When he thought about it, he couldn't stand this younger brother of his. It was fine that he usually acted like a tyrant at home, but he even ran to the streets to fight. Last time, the family had spent a lot of money to clean up this brat's mess, and this time he was here again?
Another reason was that his father had never announced his successor. He was very worried that the successor would fall on this useless younger brother of his. After all, his mother was no longer favored. If that vixen from the second branch was blowing pillow talk, this would obviously be ruined.
Of course, there was another important reason for him to go forward. That was, he could see that Gao Xu's injuries were fake.
With this reason, he was even more fearless. Thus, he pointed at Gao Xu and said sternly, "Father, Second Brother's injuries are fake. There must be something strange about it."
Hearing this, Gao Xu's heart thumped.
He thought to himself, 'How did Big Brother see through it?
I've been hiding it very well. If Father finds out that I'm faking it, will he not catch that brat? '
Thinking of this, he turned to look at Gao Xuan.
Gao Xuan was as calm as usual because he had long seen that his son was faking it. But what could he do? Something like this had happened before. This brat had pretended to be dead. This time, if he didn't follow his request, he would probably have to lie in bed for seventeen or eighteen days.
The Gao family was big, and he only had two sons. What could he do if he didn't pamper them?
Now that his eldest son had exposed his second son, he could only play the peacemaker. "Ming 'er, even if you can see through it, there's no need to say it. You don't know Gao' er's personality."
With that, he turned and sat upright on the chair, as if relieved of a burden.
Gao Xu also finally breathed a sigh of relief because his father wasn't angry.
But …
His father didn't seem to have said anything about revenge?
He hurriedly got up and half-knelt at Gao Xuan's feet, pleading, "Father, you must avenge me."
Gao Xuan had thought that his son was lying on the ground to put on an act. Maybe he had beaten up some family's young master or bullied someone? Now that he looked at it, he was afraid that wasn't the case. He knew his son too well. Normally, he wouldn't tear his clothes apart because of this, unless he was beaten up by someone.
