The Mighty Mage
Chapter 106: Rude Gu Jin

Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Rude Gu Jin

Gu Jin explained,

"It’s very simple. Even a dishonest person loves their child. They would never allow their child to go ashtray.

If he likes Young Master Sang in the first place, he will do everything in his power to stop him from staying in the bar. Also, he would never teach his favorite son a technique which would harm his body."

Gu Jin looked at the elders as she said,

"The technique is a great way to increase the cultivation but such technique has a major drawback, they would harm the body in some or another way.

If his father gave Young Master Sang this technique then and even let him waste his life like this, it could only mean that the father of Young Master Sang doesn’t want him to shine.

This could only mean that he has another son whom he favors and hence he isn’t concerned about Young Master Sang."

Long Yifan’s eyes shone and suddenly he asked,

"But then why would he save his son if someone wants to kill his son when he gets to know Young Master Sang’s deed."

Gu Jin chuckled coldly,

"Simple. He doesn’t want his name to be dragged with this forbidden art thing."

Long Yifan frowned a bit,

"Hm? How will he be dragged into this mess?"

"Once Young Master Sang is killed, one of his loved ones would definitely raise questions, and then they would investigate and try to find the reason.

Once they know the reason they would spread it unintentionally and this would lead to the damage to Sang Family’s reputation.

It is not necessary that it would happen, but there is a possibility."

Long Yifan tapped on the table and asked,

"So why would he agree this time?"

Gu Jin shrugged as he said,

"If we promise to kill Young Master Sang in a different manner, he wouldn’t question and may even help us."

"What if there is someone else to back Young Master Sang up?" Long Yifan asked.

"Let’s face it head-on for now, we can always ask Young Master Sang’s father to help anyway right?" Gu Jinr replied with a calm expression.

Her meaning was clear as long as anyone dared to question them they would throw young Master Sang’s Father under the bus.

Long Yifan and the three elders wanted to clap for Gu Jin.

Truly she was smart, resourceful, and courageous.

How could a girl like Gu Jin even exist?

Beautiful, powerful, smart, courageous, resourceful.

How alluring.

Long Yifan muttered in his heart.

He had seen many girls. But he could swear that he had never seen someone like Gu Jin.

And his heart was slowly getting tempted.

Long Yifan shook his head with a wry smile.

What was he even thinking?

Old Wu patted Gu Jin’s head and praised her,

"You are smart Gu Jin. To be able to think through so many things in much less time and even come up with such an amazing plan, I am proud of you."

Gu Jin wanted to roll her eyes when she heard Old Wu’s words.

Intelligent?

This was the most basic observation skill that was required in her previous life.

Gu Jin remembered the tricky cases she had come across.

A mafia organization is not a place a simple-minded person could survive in.

If you want to stay alive, you need to be careful and look through every minor detail. Each detail that may seem insignificant is always related to some case or incident or the indication of a future accident.

Gu Jin was the head of a mafia organization, so she naturally had a more acute sense and sharp observation.

This was the reason why she was able to sense the impending danger that was about to arrive on her...

However, Gu Jin wasn’t discouraged by the incident. She has such a good reward at the end of the day, how come she feels sad?

As for trauma...well she has experienced much worse things.

Gu Jin didn’t even realize that her pain receptors had turned numb and now she hardly feels pain.

This may seem good but only those who are plagued by such disease know that harsh reality.

Long Yifan chuckled which infuriated Old Wu and he asked,

"What? Why are you laughing?"

"Nothing I just find you funny!"

Old Wu’s face reddened with anger and he asked,

"Oh? What is it that you find it funny?"

"Hmmm.... let’s see maybe...your words?" Long Yifan chuckled towards the end.

He was truly angered by the way Old Wu attacked him. It was okay if Old Wu didn’t know his identity and dared to attack him.

But even after knowing his identity and how he hated being attacked by elders, Old Wu still dared to attack him...

Now that he has not retaliated against Old Wu, of course, he is going to use his tongue to harm him.

Gu Jin shook her head and turned toward Long Yifan with narrowed eyes she asked,

"So are you gonna kill him or not?"

Long Yifan raised an eyebrow, for some reason he was able to feel that Gu Jin was...displeased with him...

But the question was why?

Because he has not answered her till now?

"I will kill him right away." Long Yifan didn’t even realize that his tone was a bit hurried.

Gu Jin nodded and said,

"Alright. Thank you."

Long Yifan paused.

Why was Gu Jin’s ’thank you’ sounding so harsh?

Before he could say anything, Gu Jin turned toward the three elders, and with a soft smile she said,

"Let’s go into my room first and we will continue with our talk there."

The three elders too noticed the difference in Gu Jin’s treatment of Long Yifan. After all, they could clearly sense that Gu Jin like many other girls like Long Yifan too.

But why was she suddenly so harsh on him?

However, this wasn’t the time to consider those things and they followed Gu Jin to her room.

When they entered the room, they hurriedly checked Gu Jin from everywhere, and only after ensuring that she wasn’t harmed, did the three elders heave a sigh of relief.

Gu Jin didn’t stop them and once they stopped on their own, she asked them,

"Who did you know that I was here?"

The three elders looked at each other.

For the past 2 weeks they used all of their connections and finally after much hassle and connecting the dots they found....nothing!

It was a good thing that they received an anonymous note that told them that Gu Jin was with Long Yifan and the person also had written the address on it.

"Jin we had our connections. Anyway, let’s go."

Gu Jin stopped them and said,

"I can’t leave for now, first I have some matters that I have to deal only then I can leave."

"Oh ok, then we will wait." Old Fan said.

"It will take time. Around 2 years or so."

"What?" Old Fan, Old Xiang, and Old Wu felt as if their ears were ringing but seeing Gu Jin’s serious face they gave and said,

"Alright. We will leave for now, but if you need our help tell us."

Gu Jin nodded and she was quite happy when she saw how the elders didn’t probe into her secrets.

At the same time, a small ray of warmth enveloped her heart.

To think that the three elders went through so much trouble and continued their search for 2 weeks, even though they are not even biologically related...Gu Jin was a bit emotional.

.............

In the living room.

Long Yifan sipped the tea and thought of Gu Jin’s different reaction.

He couldn’t help but mutter,

"Why was she so polite toward them but suddenly turned cold toward me?"

The head butler who had watched the entire drama, couldn’t help but point it out,

"Young Master maybe she is angry."

Long Yifan looked at him with an uninterested expression and asked,

"I know that. Tell me something that I don’t know."

The head butler hesitated and Long Yifan instantly understood that he had an answer, hence he asked,

"You know the reason, right? Then tell me!"

The head butler gulped and said,

"Maybe...maybe because of the three elders."

As he was saying that line, even the head butler was surprised. Why wouldn’t he?

He has seen many girls, women, and young ladies who had liked their Young Master

But he has never seen someone like Gu Jin.

Even though she liked his Young Master, she didn’t have any improper thoughts.

It was as if...it was as if it would be sufficient for her if she looked at him from a distance.

She loves him and is courageous otherwise she wouldn’t have hugged him when she saw how broken he was...

What was even more amazing is that she knew that her love wouldn’t be fulfilled, but she dared to love her Young Master, yet she was not ready to sacrifice her self-respect for this love.
