C440 The Difference Was Huge
"You're here."
The other party only had three short words. However, for some reason... In casual's ears, it sounded very out of tune.
If this was the Murong Piaoxue of the past, it would be a great coldness if she were to see him now.
But now, the proud and aloof girl at the auction had become more sensible in Sui Guan's eyes.
That's right, intellectual.
Sui Guan found it strange that he had thought of this term. But at this moment, he thought so.
After being stunned for a moment, Sui Guan opened his mouth and said: "What's wrong with you?"
Murong Piaoxue knew what the point of his question was.
Then, she shook her head and smiled faintly. "Nothing much. I just feel that I have lived too much of my life in the past."
Upon hearing this, Sui Guan gave Murong Piaoxue a deep look and asked, "Why do you say so?"
Murong Piaoxue in front of him suddenly became unfamiliar. It could not be compared to the girl in his memory.
Clearly, something must have happened to the other party. Otherwise, it would not have caused a huge change in her personality.
Murong Piaoxue's bright eyes darkened when she heard Sui Guan's aggressive questioning. She said earnestly, "After experiencing things, people will always learn to grow."
Hearing this, Sui Guan shook his head disapprovingly. "In my opinion, this is not growth."
He had never grown up overnight. His personality had changed. It was a very slow process.
Of course, this process was not fixed. Under the influence of some external factors, this process could be accelerated.
With this thought in mind, Sui Guan asked for the third time, "What happened to you?"
Murong Piaoxue smiled bitterly and did not answer Sui Guan's persistent question.
Then, their eyes met and the small forest suddenly became silent.
Suddenly, there were tears in Murong Piaoxue's eyes.
The tearful look in her eyes made Sui Guan's heart tremble.
Silence filled the atmosphere of the small forest like a tidal wave. The breeze blew over and the leaves on the branches rustled, stirring up the pity in Sui Guan's heart.
Hence, he took the lead to ask again, "What on earth happened to you?"
Speaking up to this point, Sui Guan changed the topic and said proudly, "No matter what difficulties you encounter, just tell me. I will do my best to help you get through this crisis."
At this moment, a teardrop extended from the corner of Murong Piaoxue's eyes. It turned into a crystal clear track and fell onto the ground. It disappeared without a trace.
The woman stubbornly raised her hand and wiped away the traces at the corner of her eyes. She shook her head in a miserable manner. "I'm fine!"
Seeing this, Sui Guan was somewhat furious.
It was already like this. She actually told him she was fine. Did she think he was blind, or did she not treat him as a friend?
With this thought in mind, Sui Guan walked forward and stood in front of Murong Piaoxue, staring at her without moving.
Their eyes met again. Murong Piaoxue quietly lowered her head, as if she was deliberately avoiding him.
Sui Guan did not care. He reached out his hand to hold her shoulder and said proudly, "Even if you don't say it, I can still ask what happened by myself."
Murong Piaoxue raised her head when she heard him. She looked at Sui Guan with a complicated gaze for a long time.
She couldn't understand what kind of ability Sui Guan had. It wasn't difficult for him to find out what had happened to her.
Even if she didn't want to tell him the reason personally, he would find out sooner or later.
Thinking of this, she compromised. She was filled with grief. She said, "Murong Family is finished!"
Hearing this, Sui Guan's heart slightly moved.
It was natural for the faction of Family Master to collapse after Zhang Bai told the rest of the Ancient Martial Family about their crimes.
After all, if the people of this faction could continue to act tyrannically, then... His efforts would be in vain. Besides, the rest of the people didn't want him to be implicated, so naturally, they would make Murong Hee withdraw from the stage of being the leader of the faction.
Thinking of this, Sui Guan asked Murong Piaoxue suspiciously.
"Isn't it better this way?"
Indeed, the fall of Murong Hee was a great thing for the Murong Family. It was a great opportunity to stir up chaos, and Murong Piaoxue could take the opportunity to strengthen her power in the Jiang family.
All of this was within Sui Guan's imagination.
However, it seemed like he had taken it for granted.
Seeing that Sui Guan had misunderstood her words, Murong Piaoxue repeated what she had just said.
"Murong Family is finished!"
This time, Sui Guan came to a realization. It turned out that the Murong Family she was talking about wasn't related to Murong Hee. It was the entire Murong Family.
However, Sui Guan couldn't understand why the destruction of Murong Hee would implicate the entire Murong Family. Could there be a reason why he didn't know about it?
With this thought in mind, Sui Guan quickly asked. Murong Piaoxue had been following him for a period of time. Firstly, what exactly happened in the Murong Family?
"After you left, the people from the police station came to the Murong Family and took away all the people involved in Murong Hee's incident. The chaos in the Murong Family started at that time."
Murong Piaoxue replied with a sad tone. Sui Guan was shocked and angry when he heard her.
It seemed like those people from the Murong Family were really on bad terms with each other.
After the culprit, Murong Hee, was taken away by the police, these people actually didn't want to change the past and not reorganize the family. Instead, they excitedly started to seize power and power.
In fact, after thinking about it, Sui Guan felt a little relieved.
The current Murong Family was already a huge organization. Because of Murong Hee's forceful means, it had made their family appear calm and peaceful on the surface.
However, under his fall, the originally calm and peaceful situation was instantly thrown into chaos by the ambitious people in the family.
Sui Guan's mind was racing. At the same time, he did not forget to listen carefully to what Murong Piaoxue had said about the situation in the Murong Family.
After the Murong Family Crane was taken away, the Murong Family had no leader. Hence, there were many small fries who jumped out to perform.
At this point, Murong Piaoxue paused for a moment. Then, she looked at Sui Guan with tearful eyes and said with an aggrieved expression.
"At that time, those people who were called out were almost all the lowest ranked people in the family. At first, I thought that they had accumulated resentment for a long time, but later I found out that many of them were ordered by others."
"Under someone's orders?" Sui Guan looked at her with a puzzled look in his eyes.
"Yes." Murong Piaoxue nodded and said, "Through my observation, I found many people who have been in contact with other families. These people's actions were after getting in touch with those families."
Hearing this, Sui Guan was slightly surprised. "You mean to say that the chaos in Murong Family this time was mixed with the operations of the other Ancient Martial Family?"
"The Ancient Martial Family is never united. All these years, all of them have been calling each other brothers on the surface and secretly conspiring with each other.
When the Murong Family was in chaos just now, how could these people turn a blind eye to the huge benefits? Therefore, many of them began to discuss how to obtain benefits from it, and tried to nibble away all the shares of the Murong Family. "
Murong Piaoxue was so angry that she couldn't calm herself down. Tears once again flowed out of her eyes. Obviously, she had suffered a lot during this period of time. It was really hard for outsiders to do so.
Sui Guan never thought that these bastards from the Antique World would take advantage of someone else's situation. He also didn't expect that they would ignore his words during the competition.
It seemed like his means at that time was not enough to shock the hearts of the people.
Thinking of this, Sui Guan asked softly, "Piaoxue, do you remember that those people from the Murong Family are causing trouble?"
Hearing this, Murong Piaoxue slightly raised her head. From Sui Guan's expression at this moment, she had already guessed the other party's thoughts.
Therefore, she tried to persuade him, "It's useless for you to look for those people. After all, those people are just puppets. You have eliminated one group, and another group will appear."
Sui Guan naturally knew about this, but even so, he wouldn't let go of those traitors from the Murong Family.
After all, a large part of the reason Murong Piaoxue changed was because of the betrayal of those from the same clan.
