Chapter 261 Gu Youran Questions and Arrests
When they saw that the interrogation room was empty, Old Wang had already disappeared.
Gu Yulin's face was dark and grim: "Someone tell me, where is he?!"
"Mr. Gu, we...we don't know either. We just went to the restroom, and when we came back, the person was gone. We didn't do it on purpose."
When did it disappear?
"yesterday...."
yesterday?
Yesterday, Liang Ran kidnapped Weiwei, and even Gu Youran's employees were paid to do things for Liang Ran.
It seems that Old Wang was definitely involved in this, otherwise... their operation wouldn't have gone so smoothly.
Old Wang has been with the Gu family for over 20 years; he's experienced even the highest level of security systems. No wonder...
Their timing was perfect.
"Investigate! Find him! Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, find him!"
He simply didn't believe it.
How could a living, breathing person possibly have a place to hide under the illumination of a satellite system?
"Activate satellite tracking. I need to catch this person within three days."
"yes!"
It was only at this moment that Gu Yulin truly became ruthless. He had previously been merciful because of how long Gu Yulin had taken care of his third uncle, but he never expected... Even after learning the truth, Old Wang still went after Weiwei.
So... avenging Uncle Three is just an excuse.
He was probably acting in his own self-interest.
It must have been really tough for him to have been lurking in the Gu family for over 20 years.
He suddenly realized something and quickly ordered his men, "Investigate Old Wang's background as thoroughly as possible, and also find out about his relationship with Liang Ran."
"yes."
If it's not to avenge Uncle Three, then... our purpose is not so simple.
Gu Yulin sat in the interrogation room, pinching the bridge of his nose. He was truly going crazy.
I was actually tricked by someone I knew.
When Old Master Gu appeared, he saw Gu Yulin's worried face and knew roughly what had happened.
"I've said before that we can't be soft-hearted towards the enemy, and now there's a problem?"
Gu Yulin felt very ashamed and stood up to accept the scolding: "I'm sorry, Grandpa, I was indecisive."
“This is a lesson. Go to the solitary confinement room tonight and come out tomorrow. What I need is an heir who can distinguish between public and private matters.”
"Yes, Grandpa, I know what to do."
"Okay, let's go then. Sitting here won't make anyone come back on their own."
Old Master Gu felt a pang of sadness. People are all flesh and blood, and they are bound to feel compassion. However... this compassion can sometimes harm them.
He hoped his descendants would be kind and righteous, but he also feared that such kindness and righteousness would harm them.
Look, Lao Wang has been by their side for over twenty years, and he's also been taking care of Lao San for over twenty years. They've never thought that this person has a problem.
He hid it so well.
Gu Yulin didn't wait until evening; upon returning to the Gu family's old residence, he immediately locked himself in his solitary confinement room.
It's heartbreaking to watch.
Luo Zhiwei and Lu Jingxiao came to the old house, intending to offer some advice, but were immediately glared at by the old man: "Weiwei, don't try to persuade him. This is what our eldest brother, as the heir, should bear."
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
But isn't this... a bit too cruel?
Lu Jingxiao, however, did not believe that being kind to others was being cruel to oneself.
Boss, you should really think about this.
"Baby, it's getting late, let's go back first."
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
I'm home now.
It seems that... Lu Jingxiao is terrified because of what happened last time, and he doesn't want her to live in the Gu family at all.
“Look, baby, we don’t know if Liang Ran has any remaining followers, and we don’t know what Lao Wang will do next. The Gu family is not safe at all. Let’s come back to live here after all these people have been caught.”
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
Gu Hancheng stood to the side, somewhat speechless, but the key point was... this guy was right.
He truly felt a sense of frustration and powerlessness, unable to refute it.
"Weiwei, you should go back with A-Xiao first. It's not safe at home for now. Just stay by Lu Jingxiao's side and he can protect you."
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
Before she could even speak, someone was already impatient.
"Let's go, baby. Your uncle has already spoken. It's getting late. Let's go home first."
Then, without giving her a chance to speak, Lu Jingxiao took her away from the Lu family's old residence.
Gu Hancheng sat there angrily, his eyes fixed on the door, lost in thought.
Grandpa Gu didn't stand on ceremony either, speaking sarcastically and disrespectfully to his son: "If you had caught Liang Ran earlier, Lu Jingxiao would have had no reason to take him away from our house."
Thinking about it, it's actually quite frustrating.
At first, they all vowed to protect Weiwei, but in reality... she almost got into trouble on her first night back home, and was even kidnapped at the family reunion banquet.
Even though he is a descendant of the Gu family, he has no right to leave his precious granddaughter at home.
Because compared to Lu Jingxiao, it is indeed safer there.
For Weiwei's safety, they naturally had to make a choice.
Gu Hancheng grew angrier the more he thought about it. He suddenly stood up and went straight to the military headquarters.
It's all because of these people that his precious daughter doesn't even come home anymore!
He must finish this quickly!

Meanwhile, Gu Youran, who had just left Luo Zhiwei's place, rushed straight into Li Huaijin's bedroom.
That's right, it's the bedroom!
Li Huaijin has not yet gone to the company.
When Gu Youran rushed in, he had just come out with a bath towel wrapped around his lower body.
Beneath his strong, muscular chest, tiny droplets of water clung to his defined muscles, bathed in sunlight—it was a picture of a breathtakingly handsome man emerging from a bath, overflowing with hormones.
For a moment, Gu Youran was completely stunned.
By the time she realized what was happening, Li Huaijin was already standing in front of her: "Xiao Ranran, what are you trying to do by barging into my room like this?"
Before Gu Youran could speak, Li Huaijin's voice rang in her ears, alluring, magnetic, and husky: "Little Youran, are you satisfied with what you saw?"
"You, you, you... get away from me!" Gu Youran shoved Li Huaijin away.
That was close!
I almost failed to uphold the bottom line.
Li Huaijin felt a little awkward. He sat casually on the edge of the bed, propped his hands on the bed, and looked up at Gu Youran with bright eyes: "What are you doing here so early in the morning?"
Gu Youran then remembered that she had come to confront him. It was truly a case of beauty overriding all; she had forgotten everything the moment she saw his abs.
"You...it's you!" Her expression shifted seamlessly between shyness and anger: "You've gone too far! You knew I was worried about Weiwei, yet yesterday you wouldn't let me go see her. You even claimed it was Lu Jingxiao who said it, and Lu Jingxiao swore it wasn't him!"
"So you're lying to me!"
Gu Youran grew angrier the more she thought about it, and took two steps forward to get closer and question him, but... she tripped over Li Huaijin as soon as she took a step.
ah--
She just brazenly pounced on Li Huaijin.
Li Huaijin pressed his hands against the blanket in a gesture of surrender, and couldn't help but tease Gu Youran: "Ranran, you don't have to be so enthusiastic. Throwing yourself into my arms so early in the morning... Although I can accept it, it's still not a good idea."
Gu Youran angrily covered his mouth: "Shut up, don't say it!"
She pointed her other index finger at Li Huaijin's nose and threatened him without any real threat, "If you dare to tell anyone about what happened today, I'll cripple your manhood!"
