Elder Ai's residence is also his office. Not only him, but other star kings such as Cui Yingxiong and others also have their own small courtyards on Guanlong Mountain.
Firstly, it is for the convenience of work, but also because Guanlong Mountain is large enough and safe enough.
When he walked into the courtyard, Ling Guiyu was still in a happy mood.
In fact, he had not come to Guanlong Mountain for several days, but no one urged him to come back. Although he left his post without permission, almost everyone knew about Ling Feng's death.
Everyone can understand his mood at this time, so unless it is an emergency, no one will be willing to cause trouble for him at this time, which seems too impersonal.
Even Elder Ai is not willing to do such a thing.
Therefore, Ling Guiyu guessed that Elder Ai asked Cui Yingxiong to invite him over, and it was very likely that he found Gu Yuan!
Elder Ai's yard is not very big. The front yard is a small garden, with a stone paved path running through it. The window of a room on the left looks out onto the yard. The light is bright and it is also Elder Ai's study.
"Old Ling! Come on!" Elder Ai, who was standing in front of the desk, waved to Ling Guiyu in the yard and said with a smile.
Ling Guiyu quickly quickened his pace and walked into the study.
Behind Elder Ai are two rows of large bookshelves. The books on them are not arranged neatly, and the serial numbers are also messed up. You can tell at a glance that they are read frequently.
Next to the desk was a small tea table with a wooden tea tray on it. Elder Ai sat down first and then waved to Ling Guiyu.
"The water has just boiled, haha, come on, let's try this tea."
Although Ling Guiyu was a little anxious, he did not dare to rush when facing Elder Ai. He could only suppress his emotions and sit aside, watching Elder Ai scalding the cup unhurriedly.
The tea buds with neat leaves were stimulated by the hot water, and the aroma of tea suddenly overflowed. The color of the tea soup quietly changed. After waiting for about three minutes, Elder Ai poured the tea soup into the tea cup.
"Old Ling, don't stay at home all the time. You should always go out for a walk, drink tea and chat with old friends like us. Don't be too depressed. Many things have to pass slowly, don't you think?" Elder Ai persuaded him earnestly while pouring tea.
Ling Guiyu quickly took the tea cup with both hands, took a sip, and looked at Elder Ai again. The smile on his face looked as usual, without any clues.
After putting down the tea cup, Ling Guiyu laughed loudly and said quickly: "Thank you for your concern, elder. I will come back as soon as the family matter is resolved."
"Yes." Elder Ai smiled, "Actually, I'm not in a hurry. I'll wait until I have a good rest. You have been working very hard in Guanlong Mountain these years. You have been working day and night, and your body has probably been overloaded for a long time."
"Thank you for your concern, elder, but I am still in good health now." Ling Guiyu said quickly.
He now vaguely felt that Elder Ai's purpose in calling him here was not simple.
At least, it's not what I thought.
Finally, Ling Guiyu gradually lost his composure. He put down the tea cup in his hand, looked at Elder Ai in front of him, and asked tentatively: "I wonder what happened when the elder asked Master Cui to send me here?"
Elder Ai looked at him, pondered for a moment, and said bluntly: "Old Ling, I feel deeply sorry for Ling Feng's death, but I hope this matter will be over."
Ling Guiyu stood up subconsciously, widened his eyes, and looked at the other party in disbelief.
Elder Ai frowned. Ling Guiyu stood up so quickly that the tea table shook and the tea spilled.
He raised his head and looked at Ling Guiyu, then waved his hand gently.
"Sit down first, don't be so excited."
"Yes...I lost my composure." Ling Guiyu quickly wiped the tea on the tea tray.
"Stop working." Elder Ai said, "Sit down first."
Ling Guiyu hesitated for a moment and sat down again.
He is now somewhat unclear about Elder Ai's true purpose.
What Elder Ai said just now really shocked him, and now he can't believe his ears.
"Elder Ai, I don't understand what you mean." Ling Guiyu suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and asked with difficulty.
Every word almost came out of his throat.
Elder Ai looked at him, pondered for a moment, and said, "I have asked people to investigate Ling Feng's death. Through backtracking, we can now conclude that it was indeed Ling Feng who chased Gu Yuan, but was killed instead."
"Gu Yuan!" Ling Guiyu's murderous aura immediately burst out uncontrollably!
Although he was certain that the murderer was Gu Yuan from the beginning, there was no substantial evidence after all. But now, through backtracking, he could conclude that the person who killed Ling Feng was Gu Yuan.
Hearing this name, Ling Guiyu couldn't restrain the murderous intention in his heart!
Ling Guiyu's current reaction made Elder Ai a little unhappy.
It seemed that the other party didn't hear a word of what he just said.
Just heard Gu Yuan.
He reached out his hand and tapped the tea table lightly.
"Old Ling, didn't you understand what I just said? Gu Yuan was indeed just fighting back in self-defense when facing Ling Feng, which led to Ling Feng's death."
The corners of Ling Guiyu's mouth twitched slightly.
After slowly calming down, Ling Guiyu's clever IQ took over the high ground again.
He finally understood the purpose of Elder Ai calling him here, and an incredible expression suddenly appeared on his face.
"Elder, what do you mean, you want me not to pursue Ling Feng's death?"
"If you want to pursue the case, it will not be of any benefit to your Ling family. After all, the truth is like this. Even if you find Gu Yuan, you will not be able to hold him accountable. Or, are you planning to let everyone in the world know that it was Ling Feng who took the lead? Killing Gu Yuan, only to be killed in return? Although the Lingfeng people are no longer here, it wouldn't sound good if this news spread, right?" Elder Ai wrote lightly.
Ling Guiyu's face felt as if it was covered with a layer of cobwebs.
He was silent for a long time and said softly: "The elder means that the fault of this matter lies with Ling Feng and not Gu Yuan, right?"
If it were in the past, Elder Ai would definitely not be so direct and would have to take care of Ling Guiyu's feelings.
But now, Elder Ai's attitude is extremely firm.
He asked back: "Then tell me, what did Gu Yuan do wrong? When Ling Feng wanted to kill him, he should just stand there, do nothing and let others slaughter him, right?"
Ling Guiyu looked pale and could not refute.
He knew that between the Ling family and Gu Yuan, Guanlongshan chose Gu Yuan in the end.
Although Ling Guiyu didn't understand this and didn't know what prompted Guanlongshan to make such a choice, it was no longer important.
Elder Ai has already made his words very straightforward. If he continues to say it, it means that he does not know what is good or bad.
"I understand what the elder means. If there is nothing else, I will go back first." Ling Guiyu slowly stood up and said with his eyes blank.
"There's no rush." Elder Ai suddenly stopped him, "It's just right. Gu Yuan will be here later. Let's have a good talk."
Ling Guiyu's eyes changed again.
Gu Yuan...want to come to Guanlong Mountain?
