Chapter 1307 Inquiring From The Side
"Really?" Old master Chu turned around and looked at Chu Jie.
"Of course it's true, Grandpa." Chu Jie said, "when Mr. Mo Long asked me that, I was also shocked! But Grandpa, do we really have an illegitimate child outside?"
Old master Chu frowned and said, "impossible! How could our Chu family have an illegitimate child outside? The Chu clan can't do such an embarrassing thing! And even if he does have an illegitimate child, I will never acknowledge him. His name will never be on the Chu family's genealogy!"
Old master Chu's emotions were getting more and more agitated, and his old face was flushed red.
"Grandpa, don't get too excited!" Chu Jie quickly comforted old master Chu.
"However, I still advise you to investigate this matter." Mo Long said, "although some people say that 'wise men stop at rumors', who started this rumor? and what basis did that person have to say such things? If he didn't get to the bottom of this matter and solve the problem at its roots, more rumors would probably spread in the future. This time it was an illegitimate child, but what about the next time? What could it be?"
Mo Long's words made sense. Old master Chu's gaze turned cold as he said, "This group of people really don't put the Chu clan in their eyes! I'd like to see who spread such a rumor!"
"This is your family matter. I won't get involved." Mo Long said. After giving a polite bow to old master Chu, he returned to his room.
He didn't expect Chu Jie to follow him all the way to the door before she said in a sweet voice, "Mr. Mo Long, we're going to get married sooner or later, so my family matters are your family matters. You don't have to be polite."
Mo Long paused and looked at Chu Jie, asking, "Is there anything else you want to tell me besides this?"
"There's nothing else," Chu Jie lowered her head shyly. "I just wanted to come over and ask you. Since we're getting married soon, can I sleep in the same room as you?"
"I can't," Mo Long rejected her without a second thought. "We can't sleep in the same room before we get married."
"I-I see. I was too abrupt. I'm sorry, Mr. Mo Long." Chu Jie was a little embarrassed and blamed herself for not being reserved enough.
So what if they were going to get married? They weren't married yet, so how could he make such an unreasonable request?
She turned around in embarrassment and anger, but Mo Long stopped her and said, "Miss Chu Jie, I have something to ask you."
"What is it?" Chu Jie's eyes instantly lit up. "It's my honor to be able to help Mr. Mo Long!"
"It's not a big deal." Mo Long said, "it's just that I heard that the Chu family has been developing a new type of weapon recently. I wonder what kind of weapon it is? Actually, I wanted to ask old master Chu when we were in the study earlier, but I didn't say anything because he was so angry."
"A new weapon?" Chu Jie thought for a moment and seemed to have some impression of this word.
Mo Long saw the grave expression on her face and asked, "How is it? Do you have any impression of it?"
"Yes, I am." Chu Jie said, "when I was delivering the medicine to Grandpa, I heard him call and tell me about this. However, I only came in to deliver the medicine and then left, so I didn't hear clearly what my grandfather said. I can only hear a rough idea."
Just one was probably enough.

"Can you roughly tell me what you heard?" Mo Long asked Chu Jie.
"Of course you can!" Chu Jie's face was ruddy, as if she was happy to be able to help Mo Long. As such, she told Mo Long everything she heard.
When Mo Long heard this, his expression became extremely heavy.
Chu Jie couldn't help but feel worried when she saw him like this. She asked, "Mr. Mo Long, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I'm just a little tired and want to rest." Mo Long said.
"Then I won't disturb your rest. I'll go back first." Chu Jie said and left.
After confirming that Chu Jie had left, Mo Long gave Jiang Yu a call. "I've already heard about the new weapons from Chu Jie."
"So fast?" Jiang Yu was shocked. "Then what do you know?"
Mo Long said, "this new weapon looks like a pistol. It's not loaded with bullets, but with poisonous embroidery needles. The embroidery needles inside are made of the best ore. If there are no accidents, the Chu clan must have found people to mine illegally in order to use the best ore to make the embroidery needles."
