Crazy! Are You Really A Beast Tamer? Chapter 488 – You are already mine!_1

Chapter 488: Chapter 257 You are already mine!_1
Gao Wenyuan abruptly turned to look at Fang Mu.

Seeing Fang Mu’s serious and solemn expression, it was clear that he wasn’t just asking casually.

This made Gao Wenyuan instantly more certain of the guess in his mind.

If the Gao Family really were responsible for the Sea Clan invasion of Lu City, and by extension, the entire Dragon Rising Federation, due to their recent fishing expedition, then the Gao Family would be deemed the criminals by all.

How could his uncle, Gao Hongying, dare to do that?!

Gao Hongying indeed was a cunning man, but he always shunned risks when making decisions.

In many decisions made for the Gao Family, Gao Hongying would always try to limit risks as much as possible.

Even if a risk-averse decision could affect the Gao Family’s interests to some extent.

The interaction among the Lu Du Five Families was one of both cooperation and competition.

If a mistake occurred on an opportunity that should have been profitable, causing the family’s interests to be compromised,

It would widen the gap with the other families.

This was because the opportunities available to the five major families were mostly equal on ordinary days.

Seeing the look in Gao Wenyuan’s eyes, Fang Mu knew what Gao Wenyuan had guessed.

The words of Gao Wenyuan were the best confirmation, supporting the hypothesis in Fang Mu’s heart.

Fang Mu presumed that if the Gao Family and Zhao Family knew that the Guardian Beast they aimed to catch during their fishing expedition was the offspring of a high-ranking figure in a Sea Clan empire,

they wouldn’t dare to act so brazenly.

Even if they dared to take such a bold step, they should have prepared the requisite goods using their family’s power to avoid any irregularities in the official fishing records of Lu City.

Fang Mu figured out there was a high chance that the patriarchs of the Gao Family, Gao Hongying, and the Zhao Family, Zhao Junwei, didn’t know what the capture of this Guardian Beast implied.

Both families had close connections with a Sea Clan leader, and the information they obtained likely came from that Sea Clan leader.

However, that Sea Clan leader only informed them of the rewards from this fishing expedition but not the risks involved.

Therefore, there must be something wrong with the Sea Clan leader whom they were in contact with!

What Fang Mu needed to do now was to rescue the offspring of that high-ranking figure in the Han Yang Empire from the hands of the Gao and Zhao families.

As long as this offspring was safe, the Sea Clan’s invasion of Lu City might be resolved.

Even though the Gao Family and Zhao Family started the conflict with the Sea Clan, the turbulence was actually instigated by the Sea Clan.

The root cause was within the Sea Clan.

The districts in the outskirts of Lu City were submerged by seawater, countless ordinary people and Beast Masters lost their lives in the night, becoming ghosts in the sea.

The Sea Clan must provide an explanation to Lu City for all this.

“Let me ask you a final question, do you know how the Gao Family and the Zhao Family plan to deal with what they caught?”

Fang Mu’s question stumped Gao Wenyuan.

Even though Gao Wenyuan had been raised to the status of Noble Lady by Gao Hongying, she was unlikely to know about this kind of affair.

Her uncle, Gao Hongying, and Zhao Family Patriarch Zhao Junwei, had indeed been frequently meeting recently.

However, there was no chance for Gao Wenyuan to eavesdrop on the contents of their conversations.

Nonetheless, Gao Wenyuan deduced that Fang Mu was most probably interested in that thing they caught.

Gao Wenyuan quickly tried to lighten the situation and said,

“Mr. Jianmu, minor members of the Gao Family like myself have no access to such core secrets!”

“But if you want to know, I can help gather information after I return to the Gao Family.”

“Give me three hours and I can provide you with an answer.”

Hearing this, Fang Mu knew that Gao Wenyuan was very good at reading people’s minds.

Protecting a smart person is always better than protecting a fool!

“You are now mine, and I will protect you.”

“When you go to the Gao Family on my behalf, tell them that the Wan Fish Festival will be postponed due to the current unrest.”

“Ask the Gao Family if they have any valuable items that they plan to bring to the festival and if they are interested in a trade with me.”

“You know what I want.”

“After this is done, I will make you the true Noble Lady of the Gao Family. And in the future, you will have the opportunity to control the Gao Family.”

Fang Mu’s words were like a soothing pill to Gao Wenyuan and brought her a great joy.

The phrase “you are mine” has relieved Gao Wenyuan’s fear about being discarded by Gao Hongying when she returns to the Gao Family and being reduced to a serving maid to Gao Hengyun.

After she returns, Gao Wenyuan can communicate with Gao Hongying as “one of Jianmu’s people”.

And Gao Hengyun would have to bow in her presence.

Now she realized that to outsiders, her status was no different from She Wan’s.

But to Fang Mu, she was just a recent defector who hadn’t been of much value yet.

Also, Fang Mu’s words told Gao Wenyuan what she could get if she did well.

Fang Mu was helping her, indicating that he wanted her to replace Gao Hongying, squeeze out Gao Hengyun, and become the Gao Family’s matriarch.

This was something Gao Wenyuan had never dared dream of before.

As for what Fang Mu wanted, the answer was quite obvious and there was no need for Gao Wenyuan to guess.

What Fang Mu wanted must be the thing that the Gao Family and Zhao Family had caught during the fishing expedition.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked her about it in his previous question.

Since Fang Mu had already taken her as one of his own, Gao Wenyuan also changed how she addressed him.

“I’ll return to the Gao Family right away, young master. Once I have the answer, I will contact you immediately!”

Fang Mu gave Gao Wenyuan his phone number and prepared to send Yin Nanzhen along with her.

Fang Mu assigned Yin Nanzhen to accompany Gao Wenyuan to the Gao Family, not for the sake of her safety.

But rather, Yin Nanzhen, being his chauffeur, could represent Fang Mu’s stance quite succinctly.
