The Night Before the Junior Family Head Election
After a long time.
Ye Zichen was unable to refuse Ye Rong's request. After a moment of silence, he nodded, "Let's talk about it later.
If I can help, then help. If I can't, then there's nothing I can do. I don't even dare to imagine what that little fellow Gu Li is capable of. "
Seeing that, Ye Rong smiled in relief and patted his shoulders, "Alright, then we'll do as you say.
"Alright, we'll do as you say. I'll help if I can."
Ye Zichen left the room with a smile, then laid on the bed and took out his phone to check his WeChat.
The latest status update was sent by Su Yiyun. It was a photo of him and a beauty. Actually, it wouldn't be strange at all if he had a beauty by his side. However, it was rather strange that he actually announced it in WeChat.
Below it were a bunch of replies from his roommates. Most of them were angry that he actually reached out his claws towards a beauty once again.
Ye Zichen shook his head with a smile, then liked the post.
Buzz …
Less than 30 seconds after she liked it, Su Yiyun called.
"How is it over at the capital? Does it feel like a cannon entering the city?"
Su Yiyun laughed playfully, while the sound of a girl's giggles occasionally sounded out from the other side. Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows, then ignored his mockery.
"You're really so free that you have time to call me when you're with a girl?"
"Haha, with our relationship … Isn't it normal for me to call?" Su Yiyun chuckled. "When are you coming back to Bingcheng? I'll introduce you two!"
"True love?" Ye Zichen asked playfully.
"True love!" Su Yiyun replied with certainty.
"Alright, then wait a few more days. Once I'm done with the things over at the capital, I'll go back and see just who that girl is for my bro to be so infatuated with him," Ye Zichen replied with a smile.
Su Yiyun replied with a smile, nodded, and hung up after saying a few more words.
"Who were you calling just now?"
A cute question sounded out. Su Yiyun raised his eyebrows and put his phone back into his pocket, then picked up a spicy skewer from the table with a smile, "My really good friend.
"A very good friend of mine. I'll let you meet him when he comes back."
"Ye Zichen?" the girl blinked with a smile. Su Yiyun was momentarily stunned, "How did you know?"
"You mentioned it to me before," the girl replied calmly.
"Really? I actually mentioned him to you! " Su Yiyun scratched his head, then replied with a smile, "That's possible. But you're pretty amazing to actually remember him."
"En!" The girl nodded and picked up the spicy skewers from the table with a smile. "Alright, let's not talk about him. Where are we going to play later?"
"Let's … go play in the computer room later?" Su Yiyun asked tentatively.
"Alright!"
The girl nodded gently and didn't say anything else.
Three days passed by in the blink of an eye. Ye Zichen stayed in the hotel and gathered information about the Gu family through Fatty Yin's channels.
Right now, the Gu family's situation was not optimistic …
"Haha … That kid Gu Tian should be regretting it now!" Fatty Yin sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, then casually chucked the report his subordinate sent in front of Ye Zichen. "That little guy, Gu Li, has already made his move."
The report showed that the elders around the Gu Clan's young generation's candidate for the young clan head election had mysteriously disappeared or died.
"He asked for it, but don't say that he regrets it. With his IQ, he won't be able to guess anything."
Ye Zichen squinted his eyes indifferently, then flipped through the report, then chucked it onto the table.
"What? You don't want to help him?" Fatty Yin smiled faintly. "Tonight seems to be the day of the Gu family's junior family head election. Those who can threaten Gu Li have either died or disappeared. However, he has the support of several elders by his side. If nothing unexpected happens, the position of young clan leader will very likely be his. "
"Are the people of the Gu family stupid? Those elders and guest chamberlains were killed by Gu Li. I don't believe that the Gu family can't see through such a simple logic. "
Ye Zichen snorted indifferently, while Fatty Yin shrugged, "That's right.
"They're not stupid, and they can indeed see it. But … what's the use? "
Ye Zichen fell silent.
Fatty Yin's words were correct. At this moment, the choice of junior family head had already reached the point where the arrow was nocked on the bowstring and had no choice but to be released. The disappearance or death of those elders was indeed a serious loss to the Gu Family.
But … this was no longer enough to stop the advancement of the young clan head election.
In the selection of the young patriarch, the elders began to vote. The ones that disappeared or died might have been people that Gu Li had failed to instigate. As for the ones that remained, they should have already defected. If nothing unexpected happened, Gu Li should receive the most votes.
"You still have three hours to decide. Help … or not. It's up to you."
Fatty Yin stood up from the sofa and clapped his hands. Just then, Lu Lu and Gou Yuzhan walked in …
"If we need your help, we'll all follow you. Even if you want to wreak havoc in the Gu family's election, we can help you. If you don't want to help, then so be it. "
Lu Lu giggled, then hugged Ye Zichen's shoulders.
"Anyway, I'm just following you."
"They promised to give me a dozen lollipops after this. Boss Ye, you can't swindle me when the time comes," Gou Yuzhan mumbled from behind.
"Three hours … huh?" Ye Zichen squinted his eyes.
At the Gu household.
Seeing that it was almost time for the junior family head election, the Gu family's heirs, direct descendants, and branch family members all hurried over.
At that moment, there were a lot of people in the Gu household, but the atmosphere was extremely strange.
All of the candidates were carefully dressing themselves up, but most of their expressions were filled with a faint sense of helplessness …
Only …
Gu Li!
He smiled leisurely. At that moment, he was no longer sitting in a wheelchair. The black suit made him look well-ironed. He smiled faintly as he looked at the smile on his face through the mirror. From the reflection in the mirror, he could feel the passion in his eyes …
"Junior family head election."
Ye Zichen rubbed his chin with a faint smile, then turned around and looked towards the bronze-skinned man in the room.
"Those people are under control, right?"
"Naturally!" The man smiled sinisterly. "If nothing unexpected happens, you will definitely become the junior family head this time. When that happens, we will find a chance to get rid of that geezer of the Gu family. Then, you will become the successor of the Gu family's number one family head. "
"Not bad."
Gu Li pursed his lips and chuckled, but the man beside him spoke up.
