Whatever he thought of, he ended up saying nothing.
Not long after, Guan Chen also arrived and brought with him the breakfast he had bought, which was soup dumplings and lotus root meat wontons.
Lin Wu frowned slightly: "What are you bringing this for?"
Guan Chen's eyes lit up slightly, and he said, "Black Fox, your visit to the Lu family is indeed useful."
Lin Wu: “?”
Guan Chen said, "My Lu Guichi replied to my message last night."
Lin Wu was slightly startled and asked, "What did he say?"
Guan Chen gave the breakfast he brought to Zheng Qi, who filled the bowls and set the table. He and Lin Wu sat down at the dining table and said, "He said that he had indeed been under house arrest before, and all the tools that allowed him to contact the outside world were confiscated. It was only because you wanted to visit the Lu family that his brother returned his phone to him for a few minutes."
"And then? Did he tell me what he has been doing in the Lu family?"
"No, he just said he was fine, and asked me to bring you these two breakfasts when I came to see you this morning. He said these are your favorites."
As soon as Guan Chen finished speaking, Zheng Qi came out with it.
Lin Wu looked at the soup dumplings and wontons without saying anything.
Guan Chen asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Wu turned the silver ring on his ring finger thoughtfully and said calmly, "He's right. He and I are still friends."
"? He said?" Guan Chen was a little confused, "When did he say that? Did he contact you?"
Lin Wu took the spoon handed over by Zheng Qi, took a bite of wonton, chewed it slowly, and then slowly said: "No, he asked you to deliver it, that's what he meant. Eat it, and we'll go to Lu's house later."
Guan Chen nodded.
Zheng Qi next to her did not sit down, but stood behind Lin Wu, watching her eat breakfast bit by bit with complicated eyes, and then lowered his head.
After eating, several people went out to the backyard.
Guan Chen glanced at Zheng Qi, "Is he following too?" He had never seen this person around Lin Wu.
"I went there as a partner. He is Zheng Qi, the agent executor I arranged for in central China," said Lin Wu.
Zheng Qi opened the back door, waited for Lin Wu and Guan Chen to get in the car, closed the door and sat in the driver's seat, then drove away from Xijin Mansion.
Lin Wu suddenly looked at Guan Chen and asked, "Are you wearing the same clothes you wore when you visited me in the hospital that day?"
Guan Chen was replying to Xu Xianhuai's message and was stunned when he heard it. "Yes, what's wrong?"
"From beginning to end, nothing has changed?"
“…Nothing has changed.”
Guan Chen looked at Lin Wu in confusion, and felt a little frightened by her eyes.
He was silent for a few seconds, then said honestly, "Black Fox, you suddenly told me this, and it's hard for me not to suspect that you are trying to trick me."
Lin Wu: “…”
Lin Wu curled his lips slightly, glanced somewhere, and said, "I just want to tell you. No matter what, Lu Guichi is my best friend. I will protect him as always and take him out of the Lu family. You don't have to worry."
Guan Chen exclaimed, "Didn't you already promise me this? You always keep your word, I have no doubt about it."
"That's good."
Lin Wu looked out the window.
Zheng Qi, who was driving in front, glanced in the rearview mirror, shook his head slightly, and continued to concentrate on driving.
Soon, they entered the central area and arrived at the Lu family.
The Lu family's residence is a Chinese-style courtyard covering a large area. When they arrived at the entrance, Lin Wu lowered the car window to reveal his face. After entering, they drove for nearly ten minutes before arriving at the real entrance to the noble mansion.
The Lu family's housekeeper and servants were already waiting.
Zheng Qi stopped the car, got out, and walked around to the back seat to open the door.
"Is this okay?"
Guan Chen was puzzled.
Lin Wu said bluntly: "Lu Guichi's brother Lu Guiyan is an old fox. With your... you can't say a few words to him, and he will give away countless tricks for nothing."
Guan Chen shut up.
When he was about to get off the car, he suddenly asked, "I don't really like Lu Guichi's brother. If I really lose my patience, can I take action?"
"…What do you think?"
"……Can't."
Guan Chen's face tightened.
Lin Wu took him out of the car, and the Lu family's housekeeper stepped forward and said politely: "I have heard that Miss Lin is young and promising. Seeing her today, it is true. My eldest young master has been waiting for a long time, please--"
He turned sideways and led the way inside.
Lin Wu said nothing. He pressed down the brim of his hat to block his gaze around him and followed.
Guan Chen and Zheng Qi followed closely behind.
When they entered the house, Guan Chen took a step forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Lin Wu, and said in a voice so low that only they could hear: "I found that the Lu family has quite a few people in secret, more than when I came forward to investigate."
“Found it.”
"It seems that Lu Guichi's brother is quite afraid of you."
“…Maybe.”
Lin Wu raised the corner of his lips slightly, his eyes expressionless.
Led by the housekeeper, they quickly entered the Lu family's first-floor hall, walked further along the corridor, and turned at the end to reach the living room.
There was already a person sitting in front of the rosewood leather sofa in the middle. From the back, he looked to be a young man.
When he heard the noise, he slowly stood up, turned around, and his face appeared in the sight of Lin Wu and Guan Chen.
He was tall and thin, slender and well-proportioned. His handsome face was cold and pale, and his eyebrows were deep and dark. When he was silent, his aura was extremely oppressive, cold and frightening, like a poisonous snake hovering silently, seemingly harmless, but it could give people a fatal blow at any time.
It was Lu Guiyan.
Lin Wu looked at him carefully and found that his features were 50% similar to Lu Guichi.
But his aura is much deeper than Lu Guichi's, and more difficult to see through.
She walked forward. "I didn't expect that Mr. Lu would wait for me for so long. I am really flattered."
She said this, but her behavior didn't mean anything. She walked directly to the sofa and sat down.
Lu Guiyan remained silent and just looked at Lin Wu a few more times.
Finally, he turned his head to look at Guan Chen and spoke to Guan Chen first, "Second in command of the international organization, Guan Chen? I heard that my ignorant brother offended you in Continent R?"
Guan Chen subconsciously looked at Lin Wu.
Seeing her nod, he nodded too.
Lu Guiyan then sat down, crossed his legs, put his hands together, raised his chin slightly and said, "I'll say a few words of humility on his behalf. Please take a seat. Butler, serve tea to these distinguished guests."
The butler nodded his head and responded, then quickly brewed tea and brought it to the table, pouring a cup each for Lin Wu and Guan Chen, and also handing a cup to Zheng Qi.
Zheng Qi took it and just held it without drinking it.
Lin Wu glanced at the tea and said, "Biluochun. I remember Lu Guichi didn't like drinking tea, but he was patient enough to drink a few sips of this."
Lu Guiyan looked at Lin Wu steadily, his eyes full of interest, and said slowly: "Miss Lin remembers it well. However, does Miss Lin know when Gui Chi fell in love with Biluochun and why he liked it?"
