"Did Gu Yao escape from here?"

Gu Jingkun looked at Wen Lu and still spoke with some concern. Although the two of them always clashed whenever they met, he was still worried that Gu Yao might be in danger. Fortunately, this was only the third floor, not the thirtieth floor.

Seeing that Gu Jingkun did not answer her question, Wen Lu pulled over a chair, sat down, and spoke in a calm tone.

"What is your relationship with Gu Yao? It's not easy to make her so flustered."

Gu Jingkun pulled up a chair and sat down opposite Wen Lu, giving her a helpless smile.

“She was also a member of the Gu family. She was a debt my father incurred from his extramarital affairs. I only found out about this when my father was sick. She was only fifteen years old at the time. When I found her, she was already doing very well with a group of thugs.”

"Later I told her why I was looking for her, and she was genuinely resistant. Every time she saw me, she would hide far away. In the end, I simply stopped bothering her."

At this point, Gu Jingkun sighed helplessly. He always felt that Gu Yao's current state was all the fault of the Gu family. He wanted to make it up to Gu Yao, but Gu Yao was unwilling to give him any chance.

He didn't come here today to find Gu Yao; he came for Wen Lu. Unexpectedly, he ran into Gu Yao, but unfortunately, that girl escaped again.

"You came here today just to arrest her?"

Wen Lu tapped her fingers lightly on the table and asked in a soft voice. She had never imagined that Gu Yao had such a background. When she brought Gu Yao back to the Shadow Alliance, Gu Yao was only seventeen or eighteen years old. Six or seven years had passed in the blink of an eye.

Gu Jingkun listened to Wen Lu's tone and seemed to hear a maturity that did not belong to her age. He sensed a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.

"No, I came here to see you. I wanted to tell you that my plan has already begun, and the Wen family will soon be in trouble. However, I just arrived here and heard that the Xiao family has changed its heir. Is this related to you?"

Gu Jingkun originally intended to contact Wen Lu as soon as he got off the plane, but some minor things happened along the way, so he didn't contact Wen Lu.

But just now, while he was looking for a doctor at the Medical Research Institute, he accidentally saw Wen Lu and followed her. Unexpectedly, he also ran into Gu Yao.

Wen Lu nodded at Gu Jingkun's words, said thank you in a casual tone, and then looked at Gu Jingkun lazily, saying in a half-teasing tone, "You came back and couldn't wait to find me, just to tell me this? Really?"

"Of course not. I contacted someone from a medical organization. I said I would take you to get treatment, and I mean what I say. Whenever you have time, I'll arrange for you to get a checkup. Heart problems are not minor issues, and I hope you can cooperate."

When Gu Jingkun talked about this, his face was full of joy. He came to Harbin in such a hurry because of this person from the medical organization. He didn't know how the Wen family in Beijing had contacted the doctors in the medical organization, but he would not miss this opportunity.

"I appreciate your kindness, but let's just leave it at that. I know my own body; even medical organizations can't cure my love for you, so don't waste your time."

As Wen Lu spoke, she glanced at the time on her wrist. She felt that she should go down now. Gu Yao's patience only lasted half an hour. If she didn't go down within half an hour, Gu Yao would probably come up.

"It's getting late, and I have to go back to school, so I'll be leaving now. I understand your good intentions, but please don't waste your time on my matter. I have my own plans for my life."

As she spoke, Wen Lu stood up, and Gu Jingkun did not stop her, letting her leave on her own.

In the past, Gu Jingkun might have clung to Wen Lu, wanting to get closer to her, but today he was too preoccupied with Gu Yao's matter to be in the mood, and he was feeling rather troubled.

After paying the bill at the service desk, Wen Lu took Gu Yao's coat and came down from the elevator. Just as she reached the elevator entrance, she saw Wen Xingwan and Wen Xingwan's mother, accompanied by a refined-looking man.

When Wen Lu first saw the man, she recognized him immediately. She was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected him to take on this surgery. It was a waste of his medical skills.

Wen Lu withdrew her gaze from the man, not even glancing at Wen Xingwan, and walked straight past her. She and Wen Xingwan had no interaction whatsoever except regarding Wang Jinyu's matter, and she didn't want to waste her breath on her.

Wen Xingwan watched Wen Lu's departing figure, her hands clenched tightly together. If her father hadn't already arranged how to deal with Mu Hewan, she certainly wouldn't have let her leave so easily. Now that Wang Jinyu wasn't by Wen Lu's side, she didn't take her seriously at all.

As she came out of the Wenlu Hotel, she saw Gu Yao walking into the hotel. She called out softly to Gu Yao's back. Hearing the familiar voice, Gu Yao turned around and looked in Wenlu's direction, then quickly walked over.

"He didn't give you any trouble, did he?"

Gu Yao was getting anxious while waiting for Wen Lu in the car. She felt that she had made a mistake by leaving Wen Lu alone. Gu Jingkun was a notorious devil, and if he did anything rash to Wen Lu, Wang Jinyu would definitely not let her and Gu Jingkun off the hook.

The fact that Wang Jinyu was able to sell weapons to the Shadow Alliance shows that he truly cherishes Wen Lu; no one else could afford such a risk.

Seeing Gu Yao's nervous expression, Wen Lu calmly shook her head. She took Gu Yao's arm and walked towards the car, talking as they went.

"He didn't actually come here specifically to arrest you. He was quite surprised to see you. He actually came to see me. I have some small collaborations with him, and you can be considered to have been implicated in today's events because of me."

Upon hearing Wen Lu's words, Gu Yao's relaxed mood instantly tightened again. She really couldn't imagine that Wen Lu could have any cooperation with Gu Jingkun. The things Gu Jingkun did were not as upright as Wang Jinyu's.

"With Wang Jinyu by your side, why are you still getting involved with Gu Jingkun? Gu Jingkun is no good person. Don't be fooled by the seemingly legitimate business he does. In reality, he's anything but respectable. I advise you to stay away from him."
