The other side.

On the way back to Xijin Mansion, Lin Wu received a call from Lu Guichi.

Lu Guichi and Bo Yuting worked together to deal with the Situ family, so they were naturally well aware of the close relationship between the Situ family and the Gu family. They also knew that Lin Wu was going to meet Gu Tangzhang at noon today.

He learned this news from his brother Lu Guiyan.

Because the Lu family had touched the "cake" of the Gu family, Gu Chengbai intervened. As everyone knew that Lu Guichi and Lu Guiyan were brothers, he told Lu Guiyan directly, so that Lu Guiyan immediately asked Lu Guichi why he wanted to touch the Situ family.

Later, Lu Guichi unexpectedly learned that Lin Wu wanted to meet Gu Tangzhang. He could not sit still and called Lin Wu to inquire.

"Wuwu, did Gu Tangzhang embarrass you? How was your meeting? What happened?"

At that time, Lin Wu stopped at a traffic light and waited for the green light.

After leaving the club, she has been in a state of trance and doubt about life.

After hearing what Lu Guichi said, Lin Wu pondered for two seconds and said, "Gu Tangzhang is a man of unfathomable depth. He is not an opponent that can be underestimated. He is even so cunning that... I can't figure him out."

Lu Guichi: “!”

Ever since he met Lin Wu, he had never heard Lin Wu speak so highly of anyone!

As a descendant of the five ethnic groups in Beijing, Lu Guichi knew most of the people from other ethnic groups.

Lu Guichi had also heard a lot of rumors about the previous generation. Of course, the previous generation who could maintain the prosperity of the five clans were definitely not easy to deal with and had very powerful skills.

But in Lu Guichi's impression, Uncle Gu Tangzhang of the Gu family was not so powerful. Did he remember it wrongly? Or did Uncle Gu deceive his father and his brother over the years?

Lu Guichi rarely stopped playing around and asked solemnly, "Wu Wuwu, what did he do to you?"

"have."

"What?"

"He's pretty much got me all the way."

"!"

Anyway, Lu Guichi has never met anyone who can get words out of Lin Wu.

He was in awe of Gu Tangzhang and asked thoughtfully, "Did he embarrass you because of the Situ family's affairs?"

"That's not the case. He said he wanted to kill the people of the Situ family."

"Oh, that's good... huh?? He said he was going to take action against the Situ family?"

Lu Guichi was confused.

Lin Wu waited until the light turned green, drove the car, and said, "Maybe he wants to... win me over? Or maybe he wants me to let my guard down so that he can prepare for what's next."

"Why?"

Lu Guichi didn't understand.

Lin Wu thought that her plan had come to an end. She just had to wait for Bo Yuting to come back and there was no need to hide it from anyone anymore. She told Lu Guichi what she had done during this period.

Finally, he said, "Gu Tangzhang is so good at pretending. I suspect he may have discovered what I was doing and is on guard against me. He wants me to let my guard down so he can attack me later."

Having experienced many conspiracies and plots in the past, Lin Wu habitually considers the worst-case scenario for opponents he cannot see through, so that he can be prepared in advance in case of emergency.

In addition, the situation at the moment was special, and it was difficult for Lin Wu to control herself from speculating whether Gu Tangzhang had noticed her plan, and whether he wanted the same things and the truth that disappeared in the fire at Situ's house as she did, so he wanted to achieve his goal by paralyzing her vigilance.

But she was about to succeed.

Does Gu Tangzhang have any other tricks up his sleeve?

The more Lin Wu thought about it, the more the bad premonition that she had suppressed in her heart came up, causing her to unconsciously tighten her grip on the steering wheel.

Until she suddenly realized that Lu Guichi had not spoken a word.

Lin Wu glanced at the screen and saw no indication of hanging up.

"Ah...ah I'm here."

Lu Guichi suddenly came to his senses and responded in shock, "I was stunned just now! Wuwu, it's only been half a month, and you have done so many things? Sometimes I really wonder what your brain is made of, how can you think about so many things at the same time? You are on par with my brother. By the way, are you really not interested in meeting my brother and doing business with him?"

"Not interested." Lin Wu turned the steering wheel and asked, "Let's not talk about this. Let's talk business. Aren't you also keeping an eye on the Situ family? Do you have any news about Bo Yuting?"

Lu Guichi: "Hmm? Jiu Ye? How do I know Jiu Ye's whereabouts? Come to think of it, Wuwu, where is Jiu Ye going? If you go to see Gu Tangzhang, he will probably be worried about you and follow you."

"He went to the secret place in Situ's house that I mentioned before to get something. But until now, he hasn't contacted me. I asked Bo Wu before leaving the club, and he said he didn't know the whereabouts of Bo Yuting either." Lin Wu frowned.

"This..." Lu Guichi seemed to rack his brains for a while, and said, "I know, it must be because the security there is tight and there are more troubles inside, so it took Jiu Ye a long time."

"It's possible."

"Hey, my brother is here to see me!"

Lu Guichi's panicked voice sounded, "My brother didn't let me get involved in the Gu family's affairs before. He knew that I was messing with the Situ family, and he wanted to interrogate me about what I had done during this period. I just slipped out to call you. If he catches me, I will definitely be interrogated for a long time. Wuwu, I won't say anymore. I'm hiding from my brother first!"

Lin Wu said "oh", hung up the phone, and returned to Xijin Mansion.

She first entered Bo Yuting's house, but there was no one at home and no sign that anyone had ever returned.

Lin Wu had no choice but to go back and wait, and called Zheng Yuan to ask him whether the people waiting outside Situ's house had seen Bo Yuting come out.

After getting a no reply, Lin Wu pursed her lips, hung up, and went upstairs to do other things to pass the time.

However, after waiting until the afternoon, there was still no news from Bo Yuting.

Lin Wu couldn't stay any longer and called Bo Yuting.

When the call didn't go through, she went downstairs and prepared to drive directly to Situ's house.

But when she just walked out of the villa, she suddenly saw a person at the door next door who was about to enter Bo Yuting's house.

Looking closely, it was Bo Wu.

Lin Wu immediately called him: "Bo Wu! Do you have any news about Bo Yuting?!"

Bo Wu subconsciously turned around and saw Lin Wu. His face changed slightly and he turned around and wanted to run.

Lin Wu rushed over, jumped up and easily climbed over the railing, stopping Bo Wu, "I asked you where Bo Yuting is now, why are you running?"

Bo Wu said dryly: "Ms. Lin, um... I have something important to do, I have to do it now..."

Lin Wu's face darkened, "Bo Yuting should have told you my temper. I won't repeat my words for the third time. Speak!"

She was extremely imposing and immediately intimidated Bo Wu.

Bo Wu thought to himself, what the hell, for a moment he actually felt as if he saw Master Jiu in front of him!

He struggled for a moment, then said with gritted teeth: "Miss Lin, Master Jiu... won't let us tell you."

Lin Wu suddenly stepped forward.

"What do you mean? Bo Yuting is injured?"

"If only I were injured!"

Even though the person in front of him was the apple of the eye of his own Ninth Master, Bo Wu couldn't help but feel some resentment.

If this person hadn't asked Jiu Ye to go, Jiu Ye wouldn't have...

Bo Wu was determined and blurted out all the information: "Master Jiu is in danger now. He has completely lost contact with us three hours ago!"
