Chapter 1206: Chapter 1206: Withdraw While You’re Ahead Chapter 1206: Chapter 1206: Withdraw While You’re Ahead Su Ningxiu hadn’t had time to ask the details, she only knew that the issue with Old Master Wu had been resolved. Now seated, Su Ningxiu asked Wang Meng again.

“Husband, please tell me quickly, how did you and brother-in-law resolve the matter with Old Master Wu?” Su Ningxiu’s face was filled with curiosity as Wang Meng’s mother also turned her attention to her son at that time.

Su Yunjin, on the other hand, was observing Gu Ya. Her intuition told her that it was probably Gu Ya who had dealt with Old Master Wu since they had returned so early that day.

She guessed that Gu Ya had gone early in the morning to speak with Old Master Wu and what he said had an effect. Old Master Wu, threatened by Gu Ya and considering the Wu Family’s business and reputation, didn’t dare to make any more trouble.

Old Master Wu was a smart man. After weighing his options, he would definitely choose the scenario that was the most beneficial for him and the Wu Residence.

Continuing the fuss would not only bring no benefits, but it could even threaten the Wu Family’s business. For the sake of the Wu Residence’s business, Old Master Wu would not ruin everything.

While Wang Meng was answering Su Ningxiu, Gu Ya quietly asked Su Yunjin, “Yunjin, did you guess it?” His little wife always had such an expression when she knew the answer.

Su Yunjin didn’t deny it.

She directly asked Gu Ya.

“Husband, was it you who helped brother-in-law solve this problem?” The conversation between Su Yunjin and Gu Ya was overheard by Wang Meng just then.

Wang Meng laughed heartily, “Little sister, you guessed right. It was indeed brother-in-law who helped resolve Old Master Wu’s issue.” Gu Ya had met with Old Master Wu that morning.

At first, Old Master Wu was arrogant, and upon knowing that Gu Ya had come regarding Wang Meng’s issue, he threatened Gu Ya, stating that if Wang Meng and Su Ningxiu, as a couple, did not go to the Governor’s Office to admit their false accusations, he would burn down both their house and shop.

Old Master Wu, used to giving orders, didn’t take Gu Ya seriously, thinking he could intimidate Gu Ya like those rough men from the countryside with a little scare.

But contrary to his expectations, Gu Ya’s face remained indifferent after hearing his threats. Gu Ya just looked at him coolly, his gaze even causing Old Master Wu to feel a bit of fear.

Gu Ya let out a laugh.

Old Master Wu’s face was filled with anger.

“What are you laughing at?” At this point, Gu Ya was still able to laugh, which was tantamount to taking neither him nor the Wu Residence seriously.

All these years, who didn’t bow and scrape before him, Old Master Wu? This man, Gu Ya, had the audacity to look him in the eye from the start, and now even dared to treat him with such an attitude.

He simply did not take him seriously at all.

Gu Ya let out another cold laugh, the corners of his mouth curling into a mocking arc, “Old Master Wu, I laugh because you are foolish!”

“You–!” Gu Ya’s words turned Old Master Wu’s face black as coal, rigid with anger.

Without waiting for Old Master Wu to speak, Gu Ya continued: “Old Master Wu, do you think that just because the Wu Residence has many people, you can do as you please? You can threaten my brother-in-law and his wife? If you really burn down my brother-in-law and his wife’s shop and house, by then, I fear it won’t just be Young Master Wu, even you, Old Master Wu, would end up in jail, right?”

Old Master Wu wanted to threaten Wang Meng and his wife to save his own son, but he hadn’t thought about it much further. Upon hearing Gu Ya’s words, Old Master Wu’s aged face stiffened even more.

Gu Ya continued to speak.

“Old Master Wu, if you are wise, you’d better stop now, otherwise, even you will end up in the big jail, and that will be even more interesting.”
