Bab 7: A waste of the Xiao clan, is he worthy?
Gu Fei stood up, bowed respectfully to Gu Yuan, and left. From beginning to end, he never paid any extra attention to Xun'er.
Of course, both Xun'er and Gu Yuan noticed this.
Xun'er couldn't understand the strange emotion she felt in her heart.
Didn't Gu Fei have deep feelings for her before? How had things changed so drastically?
She bit her lower lip in dissatisfaction.
Seeing Gu Fei leave, Gu Yuan sighed deeply. His daughter was so spoiled and lawless. She was married but still involved with another man. Wasn't this all because Gu Yuan had indulged Xun'er too much?
Xun'er resembled his wife closely, leading him to lower his standards repeatedly. Over time, his once sweet daughter had become unruly.
Gu Yuan was uncertain whether what he had done was right or not. His response to Gu Fei's request had been rather shameless, which had clearly erased Gu Fei's feelings for Xun'er. It was all this girl's fault.
"Xun'er, do you understand your mistake?" Gu Yuan said. "Since you are married to Gu Fei, you should conduct yourself properly. Why are you still meeting with other men in private?"
"Moreover, Gu Fei is superior to Xiao Yan in every way. What is so good about a waste like him?"
Gu Yuan had long sent spies to investigate the Xiao family. He knew that Gu Fei's claim of "genius" was false. Xiao Yan was clearly a waste. It puzzled him that Xun'er, who was a genius, was attracted to such a loser.
Gu Yuan's tone was not harsh, just the usual paternal admonishment. He believed his tone was gentle enough.
However, Xun'er looked aggrieved and still did not think she was in the wrong.
"Dad! It's obviously Gu Fei who made a big fuss! Why are you scolding me?"
Gu Yuan glared at Xun'er, but when he saw her beautiful red eyes, he softened his heart and had no choice but to give up. He waved his hand, signaling her to leave. He needed to find a way to persuade Gu Fei.
After all, the decisive words Gu Fei had spoken before leaving did not seem false. He really wanted to divorce his ex-wife.
Xun'er left, and Gu Yuan sat there for a moment before standing up and leaving the hall. He planned to find Gu Fei's grandfather, Gu Lie, to discuss the situation between the two young people. Gu Yuan hoped Gu Lie could persuade Gu Fei. Since Gu Fei respected his grandfather, Gu Lie's intervention might still have a chance of turning things around.
Meanwhile, news of Gu Fei and Xun'er visiting the clan leader spread quickly throughout the Gu clan. Additionally, Gu Yunyou, who had been driven out of the mountain with Xun'er by Gu Fei the previous night, revealed some details this morning. With a hint of excitement in her eyes, she disclosed what happened last night.
Gu Yunyou stopped speaking and left, but the rumors about the Gu clan grew more intense. Many people in the clan knew that the relationship between Gu Fei and Xun'er had become strained.
Gu Fei's marriage to Xun'er had already sparked a lot of discussion within the Gu clan. Xun'er, the goddess of the younger generation, and Gu Fei, the most powerful among them, had naturally attracted much attention. Now, cracks in their relationship had emerged just half a year later, fueling even more controversy.
After leaving the hall, Gu Fei prepared to return to his residence. He had a high level of cultivation and noticed many people whispering in his direction. Their eyes were on him, but Gu Fei walked towards his residence with a calm expression.
Perhaps word had spread. Gu Fei shook his head. If his personal matters caused any negative impact, it was not his concern.
The followers who usually complimented him now stood far away, hiding in corners and whispering. Their doubtful, excited, and resentful eyes occasionally fell on Gu Fei. He took pleasure in this, enjoying the emotional value brought by their rich emotions.
[Gu Yue becomes curious, emotion value increases by 1]
[Gu Feiyang has resentment, emotion value increases by 1]
[Gu Yao becomes angry, emotion value increases by 5]
Although the emotional value from these reactions was minimal, Gu Fei did not despise it. He noticed the anger from a man named Gu Yao among the crowd.
Gu Yao, whose anger was directed at Gu Fei, had once liked Xun'er, the goddess of the Gu clan's younger generation. After Xun'er married Gu Fei, Gu Yao had to give up his feelings.
However, learning about Xiao Yan from Gu Ling this morning, Gu Yao's anger intensified. He discovered that Xun'er's strained relationship with Gu Fei was likely due to a waste named Xiao Yan from the Northwest Continent. Gu Yao concluded that Xun'er might have fallen for Xiao Yan, which fueled his rage.
Sitting on the edge of the bed with a gloomy expression, Gu Yao's eyes burned with murderous intent. "A loser like Xiao Yan actually captured Xun'er's heart more than me and Brother Gu Fei. This is unacceptable!"
Gu Yao's anger intensified as he saw Gu Fei passing by the window. He unconsciously directed his anger towards Gu Fei. Gu Fei, noticing this, remained calm and continued walking.
Gu Yao's murderous intent towards Xiao Yan grew stronger. Such an outstanding man being overshadowed by a waste in Xun'er's heart was unacceptable to him. He resolved to act immediately.
Gu Yao, a decisive killer, had no hesitation about eliminating Xiao Yan. Although he was not one to kill indiscriminately, Xiao Yan's coveting of someone Gu Yao felt he could never deserve was reason enough.
If it weren't for Gu Yuan sending Xun'er to that poor place, Xiao Yan would never have seen Xun'er in his life.
