However, as a father, Gu Qingyu still had to save face in front of his two daughters-in-law and couldn't tell his son about this.

Ji Moyan's attention was entirely on Yan Yirou, and she didn't notice the eye contact between her son and husband.

But Shangguan Wu discovered it.

She didn't expose him, but walked to the bedside and said, "Third Brother, please stretch out your hand so I can take your pulse."

Gu Chenye asked, "Why did you come over, sister-in-law?"

While taking his pulse, Shangguan Wu said, "Gu Jiu moved the people in the shadows to the open, but he was still not at ease, so he asked Gu Wu for four more people to continue hiding in the shadows. They arrested two people who were sent by Shen Xinrong."

"Third Brother is taking the blame for me this time." She was the one who arrested Ji Xianli, and she is also the one the eldest branch of the Ji family wants to retaliate against.

Gu Chenye said, "We're family, so we don't need to speak like outsiders. Her business is my business."

The "she" here naturally refers to Yan Yirou.

One of them didn't say sorry, and the other didn't say thank you.

Because we are family.

Being too polite would be too formal.

Shangguan Wu hummed in agreement and said earnestly, "Dad and my eldest brother will help me with things outside. Third brother, you just need to stay in the hospital to recover. You lost too much blood this time, so you need to replenish your strength."

The medicine has had some effect, but it hasn't completely cleared it up. I need to take some of your blood back for testing. Third Brother, I'll give you acupuncture now. Get a good night's sleep tonight, and I'll come back to check on you again tomorrow morning.

She stopped and took out her silver needle bag to give Gu Chenye acupuncture.

It happened during Gu Chenye's acupuncture treatment.

Yan Yirou wanted to give him and his family some private space, so she made an excuse to go downstairs to collect interest.
