Chapter 498: Chapter 498: Old Sir Bai Intervenes
Such tactics and cunning are precisely in line with the man’s usual taste.
Especially, successful men!
Thinking about the young master’s inscrutable and unfathomable nature, Lu Kang felt a bit of anticipation deep down.
He did want to see if this female heir could manage to meet the young master as she wished.
"Do you think A Yao will see her?"
Old Sir Bai suddenly looked at Lu Kang, his eyes deep and inscrutable.
Lu Kang suddenly thought of the young master he had seen before and felt an inexplicable resemblance in their expressions.
Among Old Sir Bai’s four sons, the young master resembled him the most.
Not just in appearance, but also in temperament.
Of course, when it comes to emotions, there is a significant difference.
It seems... the eldest master is the most like him.
"This... honestly, I really don’t know. The young master’s temper... is unpredictable."
Who knows?
This kind of open provocation, even with a hint of probing, coming from a woman, a female heir, and a member of the Mu Family...
According to the young master’s usual nature, he probably wouldn’t see her.
But with that marriage contract... the young master seldom visits the old residence, and if he wants to understand the marriage contract issue, he has to inquire through Mu Haiyun without returning to ask the old man.
"You’re quite honest!"
Old Sir Bai gave Lu Kang a faint look, his dark eyes calm, without a ripple.
It seems that no matter what happens, in front of him, it’s like a gentle breeze and light rain, without the slightest ripple.
"You said earlier that A Yao sent Miss Gu to the Administrative University?"
Lu Kang nodded, although he didn’t understand why the old man suddenly asked about Miss Gu, he still explained truthfully.
"Yes, earlier Miss Gu also mentioned wanting to return to school for further studies and apply for a graduate program, aiming to stay on at the school, but it was all vetoed by the young master, turning into hiring a tutor instead."
Old Sir Bai raised an eyebrow, his deep eyes revealing no emotion, his wrinkled face solemn.
"Tell me carefully about Miss Gu’s situation!"
Lu Kang was taken aback again, the old man actually started asking about Miss Gu’s situation.
It’s worth knowing that before, when the old man learned that there was another woman by the young master’s side, although there was a moment of surprise, he only dismissed it with a smile.
Not even asking a word.
What does this indicate?
It indicates that Old Sir Bai didn’t think much of Miss Gu.
And now?
Although Lu Kang was surprised, he quickly reported Gu Tiantian’s personal profile.
Old Sir Bai listened, his expression still solemn, his eyes deeply contemplative.
"So, in other words, she’s an orphan?"
Lu Kang hesitated for a moment and spoke slowly.
"This... Old Sir, actually, she can’t truly be considered an orphan, after all... doesn’t she still have a mother?"
It’s just that Miss Gu’s mother left the house when Miss Gu was still in her infancy, and hasn’t shown up all these years.
In other words, it’s as good as not having one.
Anyway, when a mother-in-law passes, one would still expect to return for a memorial incense, but she still didn’t show up.
Old Sir Bai’s gaze suddenly fell on Lu Kang, very sternly.
"You seem quite attentive to this Miss Gu."
Lu Kang, frightened by the remark, hurried to explain.
"This... Old Sir, this... after all, Miss Gu is now beside the young master, and all these years, apart from Miss Lanlan, the young master was not close to anyone, now it’s rare—"
"Enough!"
Old Sir Bai frowned and interrupted Lu Kang, noticeably impatient.
