Chapter 999: Seeking Assistance
Seeing Gu Yue Duo's calm and composed demeanor, Sun Sheng felt anxious. He was worried that this incident might lead Ouyang Huajin to hold a grudge against him. Individuals like those wealthy young masters often didn't reason logically. If he was unjustly blamed for this matter, it would be too unfair.
Both in terms of cultivation base and status, Sun Sheng could only be considered average. He didn't dare to provoke the imposing Ouyang Huajin.
Sun Sheng was concerned that Gu Yue Duo might not understand the seriousness of the situation and kept on repeating himself annoyingly.
However, Gu Yue Duo paid no attention and couldn't be bothered by his incessant talking. Eventually, he grew impatient and simply dismissed him.
Given their vast difference in status, Sun Sheng could do nothing even if he felt dissatisfied.
For Gu Yue Duo, the best outcome would be if they could use the opportunity of marriage to turn Meng Zhang into an ally and have him aligned with Gu Yue Family. If the marriage plan fell through, Gu Yue Family had still extended goodwill to mend the relationship with Meng Zhang.
Now that Ouyang Huajin was causing trouble for Meng Zhang, Gu Yue Family was pleased with the turn of events.
In the end, since Meng Zhang rejected the marriage proposal, he would never become a friend of Gu Yue Family.
If Ouyang Huajin succeeded in dealing with Meng Zhang, the loss would be on Meng Zhang's side. In that case, Gu Yue Family might even have a chance to absorb the Great Wind City branch.
