Chapter 497: Chapter 498: A Secret Conversation 3

Seeing Gu Hai was somewhat moved, Gao Meiru boldly said, "Dad, let him get married quickly. Once he’s married, he’ll have children. We can cultivate a new heir."

A flash of astonishment crossed Gu Hai’s eyes.

Gao Meiru thought he had objections to her and hurriedly explained,

"I don’t mean to deal with him, it’s just that I’m worried he might turn against us. Over the years, he has been harboring resentment for past events. How we killed his mother, how we treated him, he remembers it all. He is a man who seeks revenge for every grievance. If he finds an opportunity, he will certainly deal with us."

"How is his relationship with Zhenzhen?" Gu Hai suddenly asked.

The mention of her niece brought a smile to Gao Meiru’s face.

"Zhenzhen likes him a lot, she’s been taking care of him lately. I think he’s good to her too, they are quite suitable for each other."

Gu Hai nodded, "Zhenzhen is the daughter of your elder brother. If she marries him and has children, you won’t have to worry about him turning on you anymore."

Similarly, if Gu Yixuan died, he would feel at ease letting Gao Meiru raise Gu Yixuan’s children. After all, the child would be blood-related to her; she wouldn’t treat him too unfairly.

For Gu Hai, as long as the Gu family remained his, nothing else mattered to him.

If Gu Yixuan had a son now, he might think of ways to bring Gu Yixuan down and let Gu Yixuan’s son take over the company.

Standing up, with his back to Gao Meiru, Gu Hai looked into the distance and said in a deep voice, "You see to it, but you should know my bottom line."

A flicker of joy crossed Gao Meiru’s eyes; she quickly stood up and respectfully replied, "Dad, don’t worry, I know what to do. I am a member of the Gu family too, and I will always stand by the Gu family."

Her promise reassured Gu Hai quite a bit.

Glancing at the sky in the distance, Gu Hai sighed inwardly.

It wasn’t that he wanted to be unkind to Gu Yixuan; it was because Gu Yixuan was a wolf.

If you don’t deal with him early, he will turn around and bite you to death.

Although there was a blood relation, there was no affection between them; grudges and hatreds, however, were plentiful. Back then, Gu Hai was able to inherit the Gu family because he was capable, and he was a ruthless man as well.

So, when it came to dealing with his own grandson, if necessary, he would not be lenient.

It was just that, as one ages, one inevitably becomes a bit more benevolent...
