Gu Yuan took a sip of tea before continuing.

"The existence of Xiao Ning is a huge threat to the major families. Now the major families have united and want to remove Xiao Ning! I also accepted the invitation... What do you think?"

Gu Yuan sighed softly, "If you refuse this time, you will be going against this alliance. I am afraid that our Gu family will become their primary target in the future, but we will join in their evil ways..."

Gu Yuan frowned slightly, his eyes filled with confusion, "So, I want to ask for your opinion."

Gu Yunxi's eyelids twitched fiercely, "Father, let alone Xiao Ning's strength... our Gu family has no enmity or enmity against him..."

"When you are in the world, you can't help yourself!" Gu Yuandao, "Do you think it's that easy for these big houses in Kyoto, which have stood for hundreds of years?"

"I don't know how many talented people have been wiped out under their hands. In order to balance, the several powerful families have restrictions on each other, so... once the Gu family wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, I am afraid they will not be calm."

"Back then, that young and frivolous man caused so many troubles. Now, I'm afraid no one can save him."

"Either we stick together or we are targeted."

Gu Yuan was also in a dilemma. Gu Yunxi was right. His Gu family had no grudge against Xiao Ning.

In Gu Yuan's heart, he still admired this good boy from the War Department. As a Chinese, he couldn't do anything to the young hero who had made so many contributions to his country.

Can……

The Gu family still does not have the confidence to be alone in Kyoto.

Gu Yunxi looked at the clear tea in the cup, "But... what if they fail?"

Gu Yuan was shocked!

"Father, Xiao Ningning is not as simple as they think. I think it is best for the Gu family not to get involved in this matter... To be honest, I would rather deal with other major families than become his enemy."

Gu Yunxi firmly believed in her mind. Bai Xining and Xiao Zining were kind to her. How could she add fuel to the fire at this time?

Moreover, following her true feelings, she could not interfere with the decision of the superiors, but she could not do it to add insult to injury to a fallen hero.

"I won't hide it from you, but I have some friendship with that Xiao Ning."

Gu Yuan's pupils trembled, "Do you know that person?"

How did Gu Yunxi know Xiao Ning?

Xiao Zining is about to step down, so getting involved with him now is not a wise move.

"I am friends with his wife. I have only met him once, so I am not familiar with him."

Gu Yunxi talked about the relationship between the two in an understatement.

Gu Yuan felt a little relieved.

"How do you feel about...that one?"

Gu Yunxi knew what he was asking.

"Unfathomable."

Gu Yuan was silent.

a long time.

He finally spoke and waved his hand, "That's fine, I'll listen to you, but there is something Father still wants to remind you."

"My Gu family does not have to participate in this alliance, but you must also promise me not to have anything to do with Xiao Ning, at least not to have any contact with him for this period of time."

Gu Yunxi lowered her eyes and nodded, "I know, father."

The fact that the Gu family does not join the alliance of major family plutocrats is already a slap in their face. If they are related to Xiao Ning again, they will directly return the Gu family to Xiao Ning's side.

Then, it will completely push the Gu family into a place of no return.

As a family member, Gu Yunxi knows that she should put the overall situation first.

But she couldn't do it even if she could watch Xiao Zining being surrounded and suppressed by various aristocratic families.

Left Gu Yuan's yard.

Gu Yunxi was still thinking about what Gu Yuan had just said to her.

The night was as cold as water. Gu Yunxi looked at the bright moon and made a decision in her heart.

She quickly returned to her boudoir.

After Gu Yunxi locked the doors and windows, he dialed a number calmly.

"It's time to pay back the favor you owe me."

A hoarse voice came from over there.

"explain!"
