Chapter 631 - It Wasn’t Because He Likes Ye Yuwei
“That’s him. I haven’t really seen this man but people say that he could be likened to Zhuge, he was a very intelligent person,” said Yu Jiangqing as he flipped the document to the next page and found the profile of the sixth patriarch. “The person you suspected was brought into the Bai family by the fourth patriarch from the middle east while he managed the business there.”
Gu Juexi put his hands under chin and looked closely at the picture of the fourth patriarch.
Yu Jiangqing leaned back against the couch.
“The Bai family was a very big family and nothing could really harm them, but it was undeniable that the old Mr. Bai was really something to monopolize the firearm business all by himself. His bottom line was not to get involved in drugs and prostitution though, and that was probably why he was so well-respected even after a hundred years.” Yu Jiangqing sounded respectful too when he talked about the old Mr. Bai.
The Bai family couldn’t be that bad, just look how good his wife was!
Gu Juexi was quite vain whenever possible.
Yu Jiangqing looked at Gu Juexi’s complacent face and was certain that he was addicted to a drug named Ye Yuwei, and the addiction was a serious one.
“The Bai family wouldn’t have ended up so messy if the old Mr. Bai had managed to get a good candidate to take over his place,” Yu Jiangqing sighed. “The Interpol is just waiting for someone who could take the Bai family down, and this person could very much be you.”
Gu Juexi leaned back in his chair and asked, “Have you seen this person while you were at the Bai family – Qian Yikun?”
“Qian Yikun?” Yu Jiangqing paused to search his memories. He knew that name because he was the number one love rival of Gu Juexi. He was not sure if he was related to the Bai family in any way though.
“We learned about the successors other than Cheng Jie together. As for Qian Yikun, I believe he had nothing to do with the Bai family other than being the fiancé of Bai Yuyan,” Yu Jiangqing stated with curiosity in his voice.
“Bai Yuyan was the heir of Bai Family, don’t you think her fiancé should have at least something to do with the Bai family?” Gu Juexi raised a brow as he told Yu Jiangqing his concern.
Yu Jiangqing was stunned. “You suspect that Qian Yikun was the mysterious successor that the Bai family was training?”
“He was the one who found Ye Yuwei when the rest of us couldn’t.” And Ye Yuwei had left the Bai family back then.
Gu Juexi didn’t think all of these were coincidences.
“Are you sure that he was doing all this out of revenge and not because he likes Ye Yuwei?” Yu Jiangqing asked and instantly got kicked by Gu Juexi.
“I am quite sure that he is suspicious. Keep an eye on him after I am gone,” Gu Juexi finally told Yu Jiangqing the reason why he had asked him to come.
Yu Jiangqing raised his brows and gave Gu Juexi his word.
“Are you going to the Bai family alone?” Yu Jiangqing felt that it was not a very good idea. “Your wife just got back and you want to take a risk that big?”
“I should do something rather than just sit there and wait for Ye Shu to come back.”
“I am curious actually, what has Ye Shu been doing all these years? Bai Ying is still in the Bai family and Ye Yuwei was taken care of by Nalan Chunbo. What about Ye Shu then? He could totally join you and take down the Bai family together with you,” Yu Jiangqing said thoughtfully.
That was the exact question Gu Juexi wanted the answer to.
Ye Shu has been on his own all this while but no one could track him down. He knew that it would be best if he joined him, but he never came to him.
“Are you sure it was Ye Shu that you saw?” Gu Juexi asked suddenly.
