Chapter 433: The Proposal (3)
The Gu Family’s status within Xuandu City is that of an absolute leader. Whether in terms of connections, power, or strength, the Gu Family is at the very pinnacle. But what about the An Family? Despite being among the five great families and a distinguished noble family, the fact remains that neither Old Master An nor An Zisheng have taken up the practice of ancient martial arts. In the ordinary world, the An Family holds a top position, but compared to the Gu Family, the leading authority in ancient martial arts, the difference is not just marginal.
In the past, everyone believed that the only ones in Xuandu City who were worthy of marrying into the Gu Family were Guh Siyi and Guh Siqing from the Guh Family.
Yet unexpectedly, An Yiqing, this outlier, emerged and turned Xuandu City upside down.
Qin Dingshan’s words were indeed skillful. It was impossible not to wonder, did An Yiqing resort to scheming in order to climb up to Gu Yelin due to the Gu Family’s position? And what about the An Family? They never opposed it—did they also tacitly approve of An Yiqing’s actions?
For a time, everyone had some different views on the An Family and An Yiqing.
However, the people from the An Family, being the parties involved, weren’t in a rush to refute these claims. An Zisheng, unperturbed, glanced at his two sons, and An Zhihang and An Zhiyan, in complete tacit understanding, stayed silent. Meanwhile, Old Master An on the stage looked up at Qin Dingshan with a cryptic gaze, then smiled meaningfully. Following that, his eyelids drooped, gazing from the nose to the mouth, silent.
The reaction of the An Family members made everyone’s hearts flutter with unease, thinking just how eerie it was. What did the Old Commander mean by this? Why wasn’t he objecting?
