For Xing Ye, this was like a pie suddenly falling from the sky, but whether to eat it or not was something he needed to consider.
Because it was too late, that night, Chen Yu and Lin Chan stayed overnight at the Xing Family. The next morning, after Xing Ye went to work, he told He Teng about the Gu Family's matter.
He Teng's reaction on the phone was the same as everyone else's — extremely astonished.
"I know, I can't agree to this," He Teng said. "I don't care what the Gu Family is doing, in any case, I won't agree to this demand. Give me Gu Hengyuan's number, I'll call him myself."
Xing Ye wasn't trying to persuade He Teng to agree in the first place. Seeing that He Teng had already said so, he said nothing more. After giving Gu Hengyuan's number to He Teng, he hung up.
After He Teng got the number, he didn't call immediately. Instead, he pondered alone in the office for a moment, probably considering what to say later and how to respond, and then he made the call.
