Campus Ace Girl-Chapter 693 - 694: The Dispute of the Family Head 2

"Speaking of which," he said, looking at Bo Nianyao, "Nianyao, what do you think?"

Before Bo Nianyao could speak, Gu Anxi turned to Bo Qing, who had remained silent, and asked, "Uncle Bo, what is your opinion? Have you already decided to take over the Bo Family?"

Bo Qing quietly looked at her and then smiled faintly. "I thought you knew."

Gu Anxi clapped her hands. "Okay, I have no more questions. Daddy Bo, it’s up to you now!"

Bo Nianyao cleared his throat. "In that case, I naturally cannot back down. I will send someone to the Chu and Gu Families right now and invite both Family Heads over."

Lady Bo nodded. "Right, this matter needs to be settled sooner or later."

Bo Nianyao left to arrange for a car to pick them up and then returned to sit down, sipping his tea as he chatted with Bo Xichen, discussing their family affairs. The members of the Bo Family’s side branches would listen and nod from time to time.

"Nianyao has done a great job these years!"

"Yes, indeed. He has been working hard, always keeping us in mind."

"Xichen is also doing well. The Bo Family is thriving."

Lady Bo also sipped her tea, glanced at Old Master Bo, and sneered.

He must be completely blind to the truth.

Old Master Bo, knowing how formidable his daughter-in-law was, turned to Bo Qing and whispered, "What did the Gu and Chu Families say? Have you taken care of things in advance?"

Bo Qing smiled faintly. "We can’t count on Gu Yuanshan anymore. Of course, that only leaves Chu Changhe."

He didn’t say the rest.

Naturally, he had contacted Chu Changhe, but that timid man kept giving him the runaround, making all sorts of excuses. So, for safety’s sake, he had taken some measures.

The Chu Family, didn’t they have a precious darling? Now she was in Beauty’s hands.

Bo Qing waited patiently. About an hour later, Gu Yuanshan arrived, seeming quite anxious. As soon as he arrived, he made his stance clear: Bo Nianyao was excellent and doing a fine job as Family Head.

After saying his piece, he sat down with Jiang Bin.

Jiang Bin looked at him and smiled. "Brother Yuanshan, you always had the sharpest judgment. How did you miscalculate this time? Have you lost your ability to read the situation now that you’ve discarded your old tricks?"

Gu Yuanshan knew Jiang Bin was subtly mocking him and gave a bitter smile. "We used to stand on the same side. Let’s not laugh at each other now."

Jiang Bin was visibly smug.

He naturally felt superior in front of Gu Yuanshan. Gu Yuanshan’s family was now broken, he was in a miserable state, and he had also cast aside his livelihood. The Gu Family was now just barely clinging to its name among the four great families; how could they possibly compare to the other three? 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Gu Yuanshan ignored him, sitting with his eyes downcast, maintaining a calm composure.

Finally, when Chu Changhe arrived, his steps were unsteady as he got out of the car. Chu Ci was with him, their faces equally deathly pale.

Upon entering the guest room, Chu Changhe looked at Old Master Bo and Bo Qing seated above, his voice sharp. "How has the Chu Family offended you?"

Old Master Bo was puzzled. "Is he scolding us?"

Bo Qing smiled faintly. "Most likely."

Old Master Bo asked again, "Has your woman gotten into trouble again?"

Bo Qing replied nonchalantly, "It’s merely to add a few more guarantees for our success today."

Old Master Bo frowned, about to speak again, when Chu Changhe interrupted, "Where is Chu Yan?"

Gu Anxi, at the side, was startled and looked at Bo Qing.

Bo Qing smiled. "Miss Chu is currently our guest. If Mr. Chu says the word, she can return home safe and sound immediately."

Chu Changhe laughed bitterly. "I’ve long heard of your reputation as a deep schemer, Bo Qing. This display today truly lives up to your reputation. But in all your scheming, aren’t you afraid of outsmarting yourself?"

The onlookers felt some sympathy for the Chu Family, but mostly, they were terrified.

Those who didn’t side with Bo Qing were met with such tactics. Everyone felt like they were fish on his chopping block!

Chu Changhe’s face was pale, his gaze slowly sweeping across the room.

Gu Anxi nibbled on a fruit, grinning. "It looks like Mr. Chu can only agree to my Uncle Bo’s request for now."

Chu Changhe let out a long sigh. "Mr. Bo merely wants a statement from me, Changhe. What’s so difficult about that?"

Upon hearing this, the members of the Bo Family’s side branches voiced their disagreement. "How can this be acceptable? Your daughter’s life is important, but this concerns the Bo Family’s centuries-old foundation! If..."

As they chattered noisily, Gu Anxi shot them a single glance, and they were instantly scared into silence!
