Before long, Gu Yunzhen's ears started to hurt from his noise.

He looked at the little guy helplessly: "Alright, alright, you're my ancestor, stop talking."

"Ah-huh ah-huh puff puff puff..."

Little Tianyou wanted his mommy, but he couldn't say it. He just pouted and looked so wronged that he was about to cry.

Gu Yunzhen could easily see what he wanted, but he couldn't get the little guy to his wife right now. What could he do?

You know, it's really hard to soothe a little one once they start crying.

Of course, if his mother were there, he would be very easy to coax.

Gu Yunzhen suddenly clicked her tongue: "You brat, all you know is how to steal my wife."

To prevent him from crying, Gu Yunzhen could only howl like a wolf: "Awoo~"

Xiao Tianyou was so frightened that he kept his mouth tightly shut, staring at Gu Yunzhen with his big eyes, looking pitiful, which almost made Gu Yunzhen laugh.

Gu Yunzhen commented, "You look quite like your mother."

If Xiao Tianyou could speak right now, he would probably say: "Are you being polite?"

Suddenly, Gu Shiyi turned around and said, "Fourth Young Master, news just came from Xizhou City that Xia Zilu attempted suicide. Her condition is currently unknown, and we cannot visit her in prison today."

Gu Yunzhen frowned and said mockingly, "Suicide? Do you think she would?"

Gu Shiyi thought with some difficulty, "I feel it's useless. The problem now is that I can't visit him in prison today!"

"Well... it's hard to say."

The information indicated that Xia Zilu's mental state had been very poor recently, so Gu Shiyi couldn't be sure if she would commit suicide.

Gu Yunzhen glanced at him with a cool look: "If you don't want to talk about it, then don't."

"Are we still going to Xizhou City now?" Gu Shiyi asked.

Gu Yunzhen gave a light snort: "What do you think?"

Immediately, Gu Shiyi silently turned his head back and gently slapped himself. He had just made a stupid mistake. The Fourth Young Mistress had already flown to Xizhou City, so the Fourth Young Master would definitely go there too.

Gu Yunzhen held Xiao Tianyou in one arm and took out her phone with the other to call Ji Mingjing.

With Ji Mingjing's connections, it would be easier for him to investigate Xia Zilu's situation in prison than for Ji Mingjing.

To everyone's surprise, Ji Mingjing's indifferent voice came through the phone: "Who is this? What's up?"

Gu Yunzhen's eyelids twitched, and he said in a low voice, "Help me investigate someone."

"I don't even know who you are, why should I help you?"

"You deleted my number?"

Although it was a question, Gu Yunzhen spoke with great certainty.

Ji Mingjing chuckled coldly from the phone: "Didn't you block me on WeChat? Same thing."

Gu Yunzhen casually retorted, "Don't you know who I am?"

The call ended a second later.

Gu Yunzhen closed her eyes. Qin San was right; Ji Mingjing was too naive!

He called Ji Mingjing again.

The call was answered instantly.

Gu Yunzhen got straight to the point: "I am Gu Yunzhen. Now, I would like to ask you to help me check on Xia Zilu's situation."

Ji Mingjing's tone held a hint of interest: "You want to investigate other women?"

Gu Yunzhen scoffed: "She wants to see my wife, isn't it normal for me to investigate her?"

"Okay, I'll call you if I get any news."

Ji Mingjing hung up the phone after speaking.

Gu Yunzhen had considerable confidence in his abilities, so she put away her phone.

Little did they know, Ji Mingjing had already been pulled into Shangguan Wu's camp by Rongrong.

Anyway, whatever Rongrong says now, Ji Mingjing will agree.

Normally, the wife is the most important person.

Now that my wife is pregnant, I can have whatever she says.

Meanwhile, Gu Chenye was also ordered by Yan Yirou not to inform Gu Yunzhen.

What could Gu Chenye do?

Yan Yirou is also pregnant!

Besides, Gu Chenye couldn't send a message while on the plane.

Shangguan Wu and Yan Yirou sat together to discuss countermeasures. Since they couldn't let others hear them, they communicated by typing on their phones.

Yan Yirou: [Your husband would definitely be faster than us by helicopter.]

Shangguan Wu boarded the plane, and just before her phone was turned off, she received a message from her mother-in-law. Her mother-in-law asked her: "Wu Bao, where is Yunzhen taking the baby? Aren't you going with them?"

It was too late to get off the plane at that point.

Shangguan Wu quickly sent a message to an elder, asking for his help.

[It's alright, I've already spoken to someone, he won't be able to see Xia Zilu. The problem now is, what exactly is Xia Zilu's situation!]

Yan Yirou: [It shouldn't be a transmigration story.]

Shangguan Wu: [How so?]

Yan Yirou: [If so, why would she want to see you? In the book, you're already dead, which doesn't make sense.]

That makes a lot of sense.

After reading it, Shangguan Wu turned to look at her and deeply agreed.

Yan Yirou continued writing: "If she were reborn, she would be even less likely to seek you out. She couldn't possibly expect you to bail out her enemy from prison, could she?"

Shangguan Wu: [So you think she's faking it? But everything she said makes sense.]

Yan Yirou didn't think it was an act, but she couldn't figure out what was going on, and she was completely baffled.

Why don't we talk about it after you meet in person?

"..."

Shangguan Wu's lips twitched; he felt like he was back to square one.

Suddenly, an idea flashed into her mind, and she typed a sentence for her to see: "You read a lot of novels, besides reincarnation and transmigration, are there any other plot devices in them?"

It was as if a door had been opened for Yan Yirou's mind.

There really is!

Yan Yirou snatched the phone and immediately started typing frantically: [There are so many scenarios in novels, like being bound to some kind of system that assigns tasks to seduce the protagonist, or having a dream where you go back to the past or future, or even...]

Shangguan Wu leaned closer to her, looking at the text she had typed. The more he looked, the more shocked he became. There were so many different possibilities?

really.

Novelists just have different minds.

Shangguan Wu memorized all four scenarios. When she met Xia Zilu, she would test them one by one and eventually find out whether Xia Zilu was a human or a ghost.

Yan Yirou handed the phone back to Shangguan Wu and said with a smile, "Wu Bao, I feel like there has never been a moment when I felt that reading a lot of novels could be something to be proud of."

Shangguan Wu laughed instantly and joked, "Perhaps this is why you came here?"

She changed the word "穿" to "过".

Upon hearing this, Yan Yirou winked at her: "Maybe it really is possible, hahaha..."

Shangguan Wu suddenly grasped her hand: "Thank you for being with me."

Yan Yirou looked down at their hands. She moved her hand and clasped it tightly with hers. Then they smiled at each other, everything understood without words.

When the plane finally arrived at Xizhou City Airport.

Shangguan Wu, Yan Yirou, and Gu Chenye split up and acted separately.

Yan Yirou and her husband went to find Rongrong.

Shangguan Wu went directly to the prison where Xia Zilu was located.

Once she got in the car, she turned on her phone and received a bunch of messages.

Du Wei also received a message from Gu Shiyi.

He sat in the passenger seat, turned around and asked, "Miss, Eleven asked me where I am right now. How should I reply?"
