Chapter 926 - 925: The Future Third Sister-in-Law in Trouble
Gu Tong led Zhu Jiajia straight to the elevator entrance and pressed the button without any hesitation, as if she wasn’t afraid of being chased by those young masters at all.Zhu Jiajia was a bit uneasy and hesitant. She bit her lower lip and said, "Thank you, but I don’t know why you’re helping me?"
In this world, there’s no love without reason, nor hatred without reason. Zhu Jiajia was very sure; she wasn’t a relative and had never met Gu Tong, yet she was helping her like this.
Even at all costs, unafraid of offending those young masters, which was something simply unbelievable for Zhu Jiajia.
Gu Tong raised an eyebrow, smiled, and said, "My name is Gu Tong, a relative of the Feng Family. I heard the future third sister-in-law was in trouble, so I had to come and see. I hope I didn’t scare you."
Her actions earlier were indeed a bit frightening. If it were any other girl, she might have been scared out of her wits.
However, in Gu Tong’s view, her future third sister-in-law was deeply in love with her cousin, steadfast and unwavering, with a decent psychological quality, and had no fear of evil forces. Gu Tong couldn’t help but have a good impression of Zhu Jiajia and felt that her cousin had a good eye and chose the right person.
"You’re Gu Tong..." Zhu Jiajia was a bit tongue-tied and somewhat bewildered, saying, "You’re the gentle little sister that Wencheng mentioned..."
Her voice became softer and softer, to the point where she almost lost her tone, and there was no better adjective than being dumbfounded.
She couldn’t help but recall all the descriptions Feng Wencheng had given before, none of which seemed to fit the current Gu Tong.
Gentle?
Gu Tong’s lip twitched slightly; she never imagined that the Feng Family would view her this way.
"If the sister he mentioned is Gu Tong, then that should be me."
Zhu Jiajia saw Gu Tong’s awkward expression and couldn’t help but laugh, saying, "You’re quite different from how I imagined."
It was more than just a difference; it was a huge difference. This terrifying encounter completely overturned all of Feng Wencheng’s descriptions of Gu Tong. Zhu Jiajia felt that the Gu Tong Feng Wencheng described was a completely different type of girl.
Suddenly, Zhu Jiajia thought of something and said, "By the way, the young master of the Zhao Family is not easy to provoke, and you might get into trouble for confronting him rashly."
Zhu Jiajia knew the power of the young master of the Zhao Family, who was a domineering little Demon King of the world, thus creating many worries in her heart, fearing he might make things difficult for Gu Tong.
After all, she knew that the protection level from the Feng Family’s young master and mistress toward Gu Tong was beyond what ordinary people could compare.
"His level of power shouldn’t be a concern." Gu Tong gave a contemptuous laugh and said, "Is the Zhao Family also involved in the Wei Family’s matters?"
Previously, Gu Tong had heard about the Feng Family ancestral hall matter, but at that time, she had just returned to the Feng Family, so she couldn’t ask much or dig deeper, thinking Wencheng could handle it well.
"Well..." Zhu Jiajia was a bit embarrassed, biting her lip, said, "They do have some connections..."
Wei Jian’an was a lackey of Zhao Siyu because his family’s business depended on the Zhao Family, so he fawned over Zhao Siyu everywhere. A word from Zhao Siyu was enough to make him follow suit.
"If I remember correctly, the Feng Family shouldn’t fall short compared to the Zhao Family, should it?" Gu Tong raised an eyebrow.
"In terms of status, the Feng Family indeed holds its own," Zhu Jiajia responded without doubt.
The Feng Family had existed for a long time, with good reason, just like many other big families.
"However, the Zhao Family and the Wei Family are a bit special. Wei Jian’an’s mother is a daughter of the Zhao Family, though not favored. Zhao Siyu is the apple of the Zhao Family’s eye; being in his good graces could make one’s path much smoother. Wei Jian’an, having pleased Zhao Siyu, has received many benefits, so he persists in currying favor."
Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy is key to winning battles. Zhu Jiajia had been targeted by them for a long time, and naturally, she had come to understand many things.
