Liu Xu actually understood his grandfather's good intentions. Although he was dissatisfied and unwilling, he still raised his head at this moment and said slowly, "Don't worry!"
Bai Yu pressed her ear at the door, but she could not hear anything. She could only sit there and fret.
The soundproofing effect of this broken door was too good, right? No sound could be heard at all!
In less than half an hour, the door opened. Liu Xu saw Bai Yu standing at the door with her hands on her hips. The probing look in his eyes was very strange.
Bai Yu's thoughts raced. She then suddenly rushed up to hug him and asked, "Nephew, why did you suddenly disappear? If you're not around, who will my throne be passed down to?"
Liu Xu restrained his emotions and opened his mouth. For a moment, he could no longer call him "uncle". "It's nothing. I just spoke to Grandpa for a while!"
After hanging out with Bai Yu for so long, it actually felt awkward to change the way he addressed him. Whether he called him that or not, it felt awkward.
Previously, Bai Yu was still a little uncertain, but now that he saw Liu Xu's cold and clear eyes, coupled with his already handsome face, she could tell that he was a proper male god. How could he still look silly?
She sighed to herself. It was said that clothes made the man, but this change in temperament was not fake at all. No matter how well a fool dressed, without a temperament compatible, the difference was still a thousand miles!
Liu Wentian pushed the door open and entered. As soon as he entered, he noticed Liu Xu's unusual temperament. This temperament belonged to one who was shrewd, capable, and sharp. It was completely unrelated to being a fool.
As if he suddenly realized something, his eyes changed slightly, and his expression instantly turned ugly.
Bai Qishan followed behind. When he saw Liu Xu, he was also very surprised.
This kid from the Liu family had only met the old master of the Liu family once, but he had already recovered from his illness? Anyone with a normal IQ knew that something was definitely going on.
However, he did not dare to say anything about the Liu family.
"Little Yu, come here!" He shouted at Bai Yu.
However, Bai Yu could not be bothered with him. Instead, she turned his head and looked elsewhere.
This kind of showdown was extremely rare, and to think she actually got such a prime spot to witness the show. How could she waste it?
Therefore, Bai Yu simply ignored Bai Qishan and wandered around.
Although Liu Xu was no longer crazy, she still maintained her image. He had billions of assets to inherit, but she did not!
When Liu Xu entered just now, she had already suspected something. Now that her guess was confirmed, she was not surprised.
However, when she thought about how her predecessor had really gone crazy, she could not help but feel a little sad.
"Little Xu! You…" Liu Wentian still could not believe that his son had actually pretended to be crazy for two years and deceived everyone.
At this critical moment, the old master suddenly met him alone. He would not believe that there was nothing fishy going on.
"I'm not crazy. I was just pretending to save my life."
Liu Xu said indifferently, as if he was not talking about himself.
"… What do you mean?"
A hint of confusion appeared in Liu Wentian's eyes.
"It means exactly what it means!"
"What did you say to your grandfather?"
Liu Xu glanced at him mockingly and said calmly, "Nothing much. We just chatted about some family matters!"
Liu Wentian did not believe it at all. Right now, a few top noble families were fighting openly and secretly, but at this moment, Liu Xu suddenly returned to normal. It was obvious that the old master had other arrangements for the family matters.
He stared fixedly at Liu Qingquan, who was sitting in the wheelchair, only to see that the old man was wearing an oxygen mask and had his eyes closed. He totally ignored him.
When Liu Qingquan wanted to see Liu Xu alone, he had a premonition, but he still assured himself. After all, one did not have long to live, and the other was crazy and stupid. What threat could they pose to him?
Because of this, he did not think too much about it.
Liu Wentian took two steps back in a daze. The old master's health had been deteriorating in the past few years. His three sons had fought openly and secretly, but in the end, they had fallen at the hands of his father and his own son. This was very difficult for him to accept.
Liu Wentian was disappointed, but he still had some schemes flashing through his mind. Compared to the family head falling into the hands of others, falling into Liu Xu's hands was the best outcome.
Liu Xu looked at Liu Wentian's changing gaze and knew what he was thinking. He probably knew that he could not obtain the position of the family head and had already begun to find another way out.
He had not even thought about why Liu Xu would stop pretending to be crazy after seeing the old master. Instead, he revealed a kind smile, like a real benevolent father!
