at the gu residence.

the clan relatives were still waiting in the central room.

at the moment, the room was full of noise. gu xiande was not around, nor was gu jingze. even mu wanqing was not around. everyone was currently talking amongst themselves. it was so noisy that it was like they were at a market.

right now, these wealthy people who were accustomed to this, nevertheless, seemed like uncles and aunts talking in a disorderly manner about the gossip that they knew.

"i heard that hes already dead."

"how can he possibly be dead? they havent even found his corpse. they say that he went to a secret factory outside and is being controlled by someone using a chemical weapon. otherwise, how could those personal guards have died so quickly? but gu jingze is intelligent after all. he soon noticed that something was wrong and escaped."

"does that mean hes fine?"

"something may have happened to him too. but hes missing right now. who knows what could be wrong with him?"

she looked in front and saw that no one was going up to speak. the entire room was a complete mess.

at the side, the maids had already gone out of control and started to talk amongst themselves.

"precisely. mr. president didnt come either?"

"even if hes here, hes not the master. he cant take charge of many things. furthermore, if he gets involved, it will affect him quite greatly. if others found out, it may affect his position as the president, so he has to think about this carefully."
