The others' minds couldn't leap as fast as those two; they stared at them in utter bewilderment.
They had just been discussing Gu Dashi and that widow, so how did the topic suddenly jump to returning to their hometown?
Gu Wenheng and Gu Yuanshui shared a smile. They stood up in unison and walked toward the door. Although the others didn't understand their intentions, they hurried to follow.
Gu Yuanjin caught up to Gu Yuanshui. "What kind of riddle are you and Old Seventh playing at? Why can't the rest of us understand?"
Gu Yuanshui explained, "Didn't we all just agree that Dad has too much free time on his hands? It just so happens that we have a major family matter that requires his personal touch. Furthermore, it's a highly prestigious task—it couldn't be more perfect for him."
Gu Wenheng chimed in, "Indeed, he is the only one who can do this."
