Chapter 378: Competing for the Lord’s Position

"The lord?"

Jiang Chen was surprised to learn the Gaos' plan. Since his family name wasn't Gao, he had never thought about being their lord, but on second thought, the Gaos had intended to appoint his mother, Gao Yue, as the lord in the first place. In that case, her child would naturally be the next successor.

His only concern was Gao Ke. He wasn't sure whether his uncle would be happy with the new arrangement, and as a result, hold a grudge against them.

After all, he was the acting lord. Anyone would show their darkest side if their benefits were harmed.

However, Gao Ke intended to protect Gao Yue at the risk of losing his position as lord. Jiang Chen felt like he was overthinking at the thought of this fact.

So Jiang Chen accepted the Gaos' arrangement and went to see Gao Jinghong the next day.

"My waiting finally paid off. Every cloud has a silver lining."
