Chapter 888 888: Forcing the Palace!
"Isn't the information still uncertain? It's just an estimation. Do you want to force a coup now?"
Gu Yuansheng gritted his teeth and glared at the Supreme Elder, seething with anger!
"Won't shed tears until you see the coffin?"
The Supreme Elder sneered with disdain, stood up directly: "Such a small matter, you messed it up. I want to see how you clean up the mess!"
After speaking, the Supreme Elder walked out with disdain.
Gu Yuansheng was trembling all over, yet he was helpless.
At this moment, the Great Elder, who had been watching coldly, also stood up, gave Gu Yuansheng a merciless look, and followed the Supreme Elder out.
The Third Elder, Fifth Elder, and Sixth Elder also got up, patted their backsides, and left.
The once bustling main hall suddenly only had the Fourth Elder, Seventh Elder, Eighth Elder, and Ten Elders remaining.
"Hall Master, you must come up with a way to get through this matter smoothly and recover the losses. Otherwise, if the Supreme Elder reports to the Tianji Pavilion headquarters, your situation will be dangerous."
The Third Elder reminded.
"I know!"
Gu Yuansheng also felt his future was bleak, thinking it might really be possible for those traitors to overthrow him.
"Third Elder, Fifth Elder, I order you to go to Yuxi Ridge personally, whatever the cost, investigate yesterday's truth for me!"
Gu Yuansheng ordered angrily, "Eighth Elder, Ten Elders, you immediately take people to the Demon Moon Alliance, investigate whether those wicked women have stolen my Blood Ganoderma! If true, even if it means tearing down Taihu, I want every single one back!"
"Understood!"
The four elders answered in unison, and then immediately went to carry out their tasks.
Gu Yuansheng stood alone, his eyes glinting with rage, fists clenched tightly!
...
At the same time.
The midday sun was also shining through the floor-to-ceiling windows of a luxury hotel suite in the provincial city.
In this spacious and bright presidential suite, on the velvet bed lay a person.
This person was handsome and exuded an innate sense of nobility.
Suddenly, a fair and clean arm stretched out from beneath him and gently hooked around his neck.
Dugu Jian was startled awake, lifted the covers to take a look, and then shook his head helplessly.
He glanced at his rose gold Lange watch on his wrist and said to the person beneath him: "Get up, it's late, we should get going."
"Mmm..."
With a lazy response, another person emerged from beneath the covers.
If someone recognized this face, they would be utterly shocked!
Because it wasn't anyone else but Luu Fengxian, known as the number one young expert in the provincial city!!!
Ordinary people only knew that Luu Fengxian was subdued by Dugu Jian, becoming his close aide and confidant.
But no one would ever guess that they had such a relationship.
And the outside world renowned for being indifferent to women, with Pan An's appearance, Luu Fengxian actually...
"Actually, there was no need for this trip to Binhai; I alone am enough to ensure you inherit the family position and strengthen the Dugu Family."
Luu Fengxian, somewhat dissatisfied, nestled in Dugu Jian's arms, said.
"Jealous?"
Dugu Jian pinched Luu Fengxian's chin and smiled, "Don't worry, although Jiang Feng is an important aide, he can't replace your position in my heart. At most, he will just be one of my war generals! The Old Master spoke, I can't disobey."
"Alright, whatever you've decided, I'll support fully; after all, you are my darling~" Luu Fengxian said with feigned resentment.
"Haha, get up quickly, and get ready to set off!"
Dugu Jian teased with a laugh, getting up to dress.
The difference between him and Luu Fengxian was that Luu Fengxian was purely homosexual, while he was bisexual.
So, besides colluding with Luu Fengxian, he was also more interested in Baili Xiyue.
He hoped that on this trip to Binhai, Jiang Feng would be wise and join his ranks, and also sever ties with Baili Xiyue.
Otherwise, it would be a case of not appreciating the favor and eating the penalty wine!
...
Binhai, in a Western-style house.
After Jiang Feng's display of his skills, a series of delicious dishes were finally served on the dining table.
The rich aroma wafting in the air was enough to make one's mouth water, even without tasting it.
Baili Xiyue approached the dining table with great astonishment, utterly flabbergasted.
She originally thought Chu Feifei was just exaggerating, but unexpectedly, Jiang Feng indeed had some remarkable skills!
"How is it, Xi Yue? Didn't I tell you? Isn't Uncle amazing?"
Chu Feifei giggled as she handed a pair of chopsticks to Baili Xiyue, saying.
"Quite unexpected, he really is good at this..."
Baili Xiyue secretly glanced at Jiang Feng in the kitchen, filled with mixed feelings.
Through conversations with the other women, she now knew the incredible things Jiang Feng had done outside, yet kindly kept the four women at home in the dark, knowing very little.
It was evident that this was an act of care, so deep in her heart, Baili Xiyue even felt a bit envious of the four women.
"Don't dawdle, go bring the dishes."
Jiang Feng, who had just brought out a pot of hot soup, saw Baili Xiyue standing there in a daze and said lightly.
"Oh."
Unexpectedly obedient, Baili Xiyue ran into the kitchen, assisting by bringing dishes and bowls.
After a while, the table was full of dishes.
In total, there were eight dishes and a soup; each dish was aesthetically pleasing.
Six people took their seats and officially began to eat.
Baili Xiyue, being the number one heiress in the provincial city, had naturally grown tired of all the delicacies.
But she never expected that home-cooked dishes could be so delicious, causing her emotions to stir and she snuck a few more glances at Jiang Feng.
Yet Jiang Feng was just eating on his own, paying her no mind.
This made Baili Xiyue a little unhappy again, and her unruly young lady's temper flared up.
Seizing the moment when the other four women were enjoying the food, she suddenly extended her jade foot beneath the table and playfully nudged Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng immediately frowned, looking up at Chu Feifei.
"Fei'er, eat properly."
Because he had only experienced similar antics from Chu Feifei in the past, Jiang Feng naturally assumed she was being mischievous again.
"Hmm?"
Chu Feifei looked up in confusion, "Uncle, what's up?"
Jiang Feng glared at her and said nothing more, continuing to drink his soup.
Suddenly, he felt that cool little foot nudge him again from below...
Jiang Feng immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks, looking annoyed.
Chu Feifei continued to look at him with innocent eyes, clueless about the situation.
At that moment, Jiang Feng suddenly noticed Baili Xiyue stifling a giggle, her cheeks flushed with suppressed laughter.
He instantly realized what was going on.
It was actually... her causing trouble!
Was this woman causing a scene the first time she came into the house and at the dinner table?
As Baili Xiyue noticed Jiang Feng's displeased look, she showed no restraint and mischievously slid her troublesome jade foot over again...
This time, Jiang Feng didn't indulge her, giving a swift kick back, as a warning!
Unexpectedly, the kick was a bit hard, catching Baili Xiyue off guard, causing her soup spoon to drop, a ladle of scalding hot soup spilling precisely onto her leg!
