In her past life, her family was destroyed and she died tragiously on the open sea.
Reborn in a new life, what bad intentions could Shangguan Wu possibly have? She simply wants to take reveng...
Seeing that he had really left and hadn't looked back, Shangguan Wu became uneasy.
Will he go to Xizhou City to see Xia Zilu?
Definitely!
Shangguan Wu's expression changed abruptly.
No, we can't let him see Xia Zilu.
Her past life was too tragic; it's best if she remembers it all by herself. In this life, she and he are doing well, and their families are doing well too. It would be best if he never knew.
After making up his mind, Shangguan Wu picked up his phone and called Yan Yirou.
When the call connected, Yan Yirou asked in confusion, "Wu Bao, aren't you at home too? Why are you calling? You can just come find me."
Third Brother finally came back for a visit, and everyone tacitly agreed not to disturb the couple.
Shangguan Wu had no other choice, otherwise he wouldn't have contacted her. He lowered his voice and asked, "Rou Rou, is it convenient for you to talk on the phone now?"
Yan Yirou glanced at Gu Chenye, who was standing by the window making a phone call, and asked with concern, "Is it convenient? What's wrong?"
“I’m fine. It’s Xia Zilu who’s in trouble. She said that my third brother and I died at sea. My third brother was never married. My husband suspects that her situation is the same as yours, but I feel that she may have been reborn, so I have to go and see her.”
After a rational analysis, Shangguan Wu pleaded, "But I don't want my husband to know. I need your help now, please, Rou Rou."
Yan Yirou on the other end of the phone gasped!
The plot in the book had long since changed, and she thought Xia Zilu had already died.
Now, not only has it emerged, but it has also brought such a bomb?
But regardless, she and Wubao are on the same side.
Thinking of this, Yan Yirou said without hesitation, "Wu Bao, you tell me what to do, I'll listen to you."
A cold glint flashed in Shangguan Wu's watery eyes as she calmly said, "I hope you can persuade Third Brother to stall my husband. I'm going to Xizhou City to see Xia Zilu now. If necessary, I will make her forget everything."
Yan Yirou was taken aback for a moment: "Wu Bao, I'm not trying to be pessimistic, but that clingy fourth brother is probably only someone you can keep in check."
Shangguan Wu was greatly embarrassed: "..."
She never expected that her husband would have another nickname: clingy.
Just when I thought I'd have to think of another way, Yan Yirou's voice suddenly came through the phone: "I have an idea!"
Shangguan Wu's eyes lit up: "What method?"
Yan Yirou said, "We'll go to Xizhou City with you and say we're going to visit Rongrong. Your third brother and Ji Mingjing should be able to hold your husband off for an hour or two, which should give you enough time to see Xia Zilu."
That's enough!
Shangguan Wu could finish her conversation with Xia Zilu in an hour. Thinking of this, she said with gratitude, "Thank you, Rou Rou, it's hard for you pregnant woman to make the trip."
However, Yan Yirou, who was on the other end of the phone, felt particularly guilty upon hearing this.
She nudged Gu Chenye before saying to Shangguan Wu, "It's alright, Wu Bao. I'll book the tickets now and ask you and Fourth Brother to go together later. Just pretend you didn't know anything about it!"
Shangguan Wu responded, "Okay."
After the call ended, she hurried towards the villa.
Inside the room, Yan Yirou glared at Gu Chenye, annoyed: "Why did you make me say that to Wu Bao?"
Gu Chenye said helplessly, "It was the fourth brother who called just now, telling me to use you as an excuse to stall my sister-in-law for half a day. What can I do?"
Yan Yirou's eyes widened in shock: "They thought of the same thing?"
Gu Chenye nodded and said, "You only know how to make things difficult for my wife and me."
"Ahem, alright, you hurry up and book your flight, I'll go downstairs to find Wu Bao first."
Yan Yirou naturally stood on her sister's side, and she felt that it was better for Wu Bao to handle the matter concerning Xia Zilu.
If Gu Yunzhen learns from Xia Zilu that Wu Bao had treated him so cruelly, wouldn't that just create more trouble?
But she always felt that something was not quite right.
Seeing her getting out of bed in a daze, Gu Chenye was worried about letting her go downstairs alone, so he quickly went over to support her: "Wife, take it easy, let me go out with you."
Yan Yirou had just thought of something, but he interrupted her and she forgot it again.
She had no choice but to take out her phone and send a message to Rongrong.
It's best to communicate with both sides beforehand, so that things don't go wrong when you meet.
As I went downstairs to the living room, Shangguan Wu happened to come in from outside.
"Mist Baby!"
Yan Yirou exclaimed excitedly, "Rongrong just called me and said she has something very important to discuss with us. Hurry up and get ready, we're going to the airport later."
Shangguan Wu cooperated and said, "Okay, you guys get in the car first, I'll change my clothes and come right away."
She hurried toward the stairwell.
At this moment, Gu Yunzhen came out of the elevator carrying her son.
"Wife, where are you rushing off to?"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wu suddenly stopped in her tracks, blinked twice, and then turned to look at Gu Yunzhen: "Rou Rou just told me that Rong Rong is looking for us. I'm going to Xizhou City with her later, and Third Brother is going too. Are you going?"
Gu Yunzhen glanced at Gu Chenye without making a sound, but to her surprise, Gu Chenye's eyes seemed glued to Yan Yirou, clearly indicating something was wrong!
"You know I have no patience to see Ji Mingjing, so I'm not going."
To avoid arousing her suspicion, Gu Yunzhen added, "With Third Brother here, I feel at ease. You should go with Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law."
Shangguan Wu's beautiful eyes widened in surprise: "You really aren't going?"
That shouldn't be happening!
It feels like he suddenly became sensible and stopped being clingy, but is that even possible?
impossible!
There must be something fishy going on here!
Gu Yunzhen took in her changing expression and said in a low voice, "Wife, I have some things to take care of. I'll come to Xizhou City to find you in about two hours. You'll probably be spending the night there, right?"
Immediately, Shangguan Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's alright, you go ahead with your work. I'll go with my third brother and sister-in-law, it's safe," she said.
Gu Yunzhen hummed in agreement, her dark eyes fixed on Gu Chenye, revealing a deep and unfathomable look: "Third Brother, thank you for your trouble."
What else could Gu Chenye say?
"Don't worry."
Then, he helped Yan Yirou walk towards the door.
He finally understood. With his fourth brother's cunning, he was definitely more than 800 cunning people. No matter what it was, his sister-in-law was bound to lose this time. But his silly wife was also involved, and he didn't know whether that was a good thing or a bad thing.
Yan Yirou turned around and winked at Shangguan Wu: "Wu Bao, we'll wait for you in the car."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
Shangguan Wu hurriedly ran upstairs.
Gu Yunzhen watched her figure disappear around the corner of the stairs, a wicked smile curving his thin lips, which vanished in an instant.
Once inside the car, Gu Chenye looked at Yan Yirou, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.
Yan Yirou felt a little uneasy under Gu Chenye's gaze, and couldn't help but shrink back, asking cautiously, "What's wrong, honey? Is there something on my face?"
Gu Chenye shook his head: "No."
Yan Yirou blurted out, "Your face clearly says it!"
