Chapter 101 Panic
It was rare for Wu Qingling to stay honestly in the Wu Mansion without going anywhere.After Wu Yuan went to work in the morning, he sat in the gazebo in the backyard. He didn't move the place until Wu Yuan came back from work in the afternoon. He didn't even eat any food. He just ate some pastries and drank a little water in between.

Wu Yuan didn't go to the study as usual after his business trip, but asked someone to put the food in the gazebo, where the father and son seemed to be eating and chatting.

After serving the dishes, the servants walked away and did not dare to approach, especially the ashen complexion of Young Master Wu, so that they didn't even raise their heads.Even the old butler was the same, he quickly left after greeting his servants.The small garden where the entire gazebo is located is only the father and son of the Wu family.

After everyone had left, Wu Yuan poured a glass of wine for his son, glanced at a deep well in a flower bed not far from the gazebo, and asked, "How is it? Have you not returned yet?"

Wu Qingling shook his head. He has been guarding since before dawn until now, but he still hasn't seen Chu Hongyi who went out yesterday afternoon.

"Father, do you think something happened to Chu Hongyi too?" Wu Qingling's voice clearly showed some anxiety.This is rarely seen in him who has always been smooth sailing.

Wu Qingling couldn't help being in a hurry.Yesterday afternoon, Chu Hongyi, who was finally persuaded, left the Wu residence. The purpose of this trip was to follow Zhang Yan first, to see if there was a suitable opportunity to kill him.Make it look like some kind of accidental death, and that'll get the trouble out of the way once and for all.Then I will clean up the people related to Zhang Yan, as well as some tails that have been designed.

In Wu Yuan's words, it is to "clean up as soon as possible".Wu Qingling also sensed a sense of urgency from his father's words, as if there was something he didn't know was pressing on his father's shoulders.In fact, this can be seen from the fact that his father forced Chu Hongyi to take action.Because this is different from the strategy against Zhang Yan that my father said before.

But what was thought to be a surefire thing at this time turned out to be an accident.Chu Hongyi, who was supposed to come back in the middle of the night, didn't return all night, and even disappeared at the end of the next day.

This is unusual.And thinking of the consequences, Wu Qingling was restless.One must know that Chu Hongyi was called by their father and son to go here.Now that something happened, the carelessness of their father and son would never be concealed. Once the "king" pursued him, it would be no joke.

Although Wu Qingling only met the "Wang" a few years ago, she was deeply impressed. The fear and awe of the "Wang" has never diminished by half.

Wu Yuan picked up the wine glass, drank the wine in one gulp, then looked at his son, motioning for him to talk while eating.

"You don't need to guess, if you haven't returned now, something must have happened."

"Isn't that really related to that Zhang Yan?"

"It's hard to say." Wu Yuan didn't say anything dead.It seems there are other ideas.

Wu Qingling was a little anxious when she heard the words, and quickly asked: "Why is it hard to say? Father, this matter has nothing to do with us. If Tang Niu and Chu Hongyi's accidents are all related to that Zhang Yan, or push it to Zhang Yan If we go to the body, at least we will be less guilty in front of the "king", and may even be exonerated."

But before Wu Qingling finished speaking, Wu Yuan interrupted him with a wave of his hand, frowning, and didn't let him continue.

"I told you that your cleverness must be used in the right place, otherwise it will not be clever but stupid. In addition, you can't always worry about the result in a panic, but think about how to avoid it before the result comes out. "Wu Yuan said, without stopping the chopsticks in his hand, he ate the food in small mouthfuls.

Seeing her father like this, Wu Qingling also took a deep breath, picked up the bowls and chopsticks in front of her and started to eat.He was really hungry, and he followed his father's example to calm himself down as soon as possible.

The father and son ate in silence for a meal.After three bowls of rice, Wu Qingling put down the bowls and chopsticks, while Wu Yuan, who was opposite him, was already full after eating just one bowl, drinking tea and waiting for him.

Wu Yuan was very satisfied with his son's silence.Regardless of whether he really calmed down or not, at least his son is clearly trying to calm himself down, which is a good start.When the limelight is over, Wu Yuan is about to start throwing his son into the big dye vat of official career.

Of course, this hurdle has to be passed at the moment.

"Our Wu family is born different from most people, this special physique has brought us a lot of troubles and also brought us fortunes.

They said that we are the "Holy Body", hehe, Qing Ling, do you think we are the Holy Body? "

Wu Qingling thought for a while, then nodded, and said, "It should be, otherwise why would others not?"

Thinking back, when he was able to see those "spirits", Wu Qingling was often frightened. It was because he was still young, and he was more resistant to his own ability.Only when I grew up later did I realize that this is actually the lifeblood of the family, and I also accepted the "Holy Body" that the "spirit" said.Be different and feel superior.

"Bullshit "Holy Body"." Wu Yuan took a sip of wine, with a rare look of disdain on his face.Seeing the surprised expression on his son's face, he continued: "The world is ever-changing. Although our Wu family's bloodline is strange, it is only one of the thousands of changes. How can it be the Holy Body? Can it go to the sky or enter the earth? It's just the next door. Bragging, it's just used to wash your and my brains, you can use it to claim yourself, but you can't really believe that.

In fact, the word "mutual benefit" is more appropriate.You have been messing around outside for so many years, you should be able to understand what I said, right? "

Although the content of the words had a great impact on Wu Qingling, he had seen the world, so he could understand the meaning of his father's words without using his brain.So he nodded again and again.

Wu Yuan went on to say: "Since it is "mutual benefit", don't put your position on the other side. Our Wu family has its own foothold and is not the servant of the "king". Even those pathetic "spirits" We have always regarded us as such, but we must be aware of the distance in our hearts, and don't really put ourselves down.

So don't be afraid.

But things are not something you can just perfunctory or transfer over with your cleverness.Need to be watertight. "

"My child is stupid, so I ask my father to teach me!" Wu Qingling asked for advice while refilling a cup of hot tea for her father.He suddenly understood that maybe this was his father waiting for him to teach him a crucial lesson for the Wu family's blood to survive in the world.If it weren't for this sudden incident, I don't know when this lesson will be postponed.

Wu Yuan took a sip of tea, and said seriously: "Facts are facts, there is no need to deliberately transfer them to Zhang Yan. Chu Hongyi has already had an accident, just like Tang Niu. So who can know that we let her go? "

"But father, if we hadn't asked her to go to Zhang Yan, she would have..."

Wu Yuan interrupted his son again, saying: "Remember, we didn't ask her to find Zhang Yan, but she went to Langyuan City to find out why Tang Niu disappeared."
