Seeing this, Guan Chen felt relieved and followed quickly.
Zheng Qi followed closely behind.
After they all went upstairs, Lu Guiyan took a deep breath, stood up and left the hall. But he did not go upstairs, but went to the yard, then took out his mobile phone and made a call.
The phone rang only a few times before someone picked up.
"Hello? What's wrong?"
Lu Guiyan said coldly: "You asked me to be nice to that little girl Lin Wu and not to embarrass her, but now I am furious with her, what should I do? Will you help me vent my anger?"
The man on the other end was a little surprised. "She can actually make you angry? That's amazing. I was right about her."
Lu Guiyan: “…………”
The man reacted and said hurriedly: "Gui Yan, that's not what I meant. I just didn't expect her to be so powerful. I'm just expressing my feelings. I'm not being sarcastic with you."
Lu Guiyan sneered: "Why do I remember that you didn't evaluate Lin Wu like this before?"
The man fell silent.
Lu Guiyan gritted his teeth and said, "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation. Why are you asking me to give in to Lin Wu like that fellow Bo Yuting? That girl is sharp-tongued. Do I need to give in? I haven't gotten any good results, and I'm still so aggrieved. President Gu, I'm a businessman, and I don't like doing business at a loss like this!"
The person he called was Gu Chengbai.
Gu Chengbai did not respond to Lu Guiyan's words. After a while, he said, "Actually, I'm not sure, but there will be a result this afternoon."
"? What's the result?"
“…I can’t tell you for now.”
Gu Chengbai said: "This matter is very important to my Gu family, and I can't tell anyone else for the time being. But don't worry, Lin Wu... may be one of ours."
Lu Guiyan had a blank expression on his face: "Others? So you're saying that I've suffered so much and let outsiders interfere in my Lu family's affairs, and in the end I'm someone else?"
"Well……"
"Gu Chengbai, you are very good and interesting!"
Lu Guiyan sneered again, "Then I will tell you clearly, I only want my brother. If Lin Wu cannot bring my brother back by then, I will really turn you into - 'other people', an outsider, and you will never be able to enter the door of my Jingwan Apartment again!"
"No, I can explain..."
Lu Guiyan hung up the phone without listening to what Gu Chengbai said.
…
upstairs.
Lin Wu and Guan Chen quickly found the room Lu Guiyan mentioned.
Lin Wu asked Zheng Qi to guard outside the door and not let anyone in, and then he knocked on the door to alert Lu Guichi in the room and pushed the door open.
This room is Lu Guichi's bedroom. It is very large and divided into an outer room and an inner room. Lin Wu and Guan Chen walked directly through the outer guest area to the inner room.
Before he even got close, he heard Lu Guichi's frantic voice coming from inside: "Who? Is it Wuwu? Wait, don't come in yet! It's not convenient for me!"
Lin Wu and Guan Chen stopped.
Guan Chen looked at Lin Wu and asked if he could speak now. After Lin Wu nodded, he immediately said, "I came here with Black Fox. Lu Guichi, are you okay?"
"? Guan Chen? Why the hell are you here!?"
Guan Chen was so worried that he couldn't help but go in. "Did you get beaten up? Are you having trouble moving? I can help..."
Lin Wu turned around, walked to the sofa and sat down waiting.
Who knew that just as he sat down, he heard Lu Guichi screaming again: "Fuck, no one is allowed to come in, especially you! Get the fuck out! Damn, close your eyes first!"
Lin Wu was stunned for a moment, turned his head and saw Guan Chen being hit by pillows, doll models and other things, standing there in a daze with a confused look on his face.
Lin Wu organized his words: "What's going on with you two?"
Guan Chen frowned, "Lu Guichi was beaten, I saw wounds all over his back, probably from being beaten with a stick or something like that."
Lin Wu said, "It's normal. He did so many things that violated the Lu family rules, and he hid so many things from his brother. He almost got into trouble at Pier 9. It's normal for him to be beaten when he comes back. Maybe he even kneels in the ancestral hall."
Guan Chen was puzzled: "But he didn't do anything too outrageous, and there were no serious consequences. Wouldn't it be enough to give him a light punishment and a stern warning? Why did he have to be beaten so harshly?"
"How would I know?" Lin Wu touched his chin, "So why were you knocked out?"
Guan Chen said: "When I went in, Lu Guichi had just gotten up from the bed and was putting on his clothes with a grin on his face. I saw that he seemed to be in so much pain that he couldn't stand, so I wanted to help him put on his clothes, but I accidentally pulled them off..."
"Bang!"
A pillow hit Guan Chen on the head, interrupting his words.
Lin Wu looked past Guan Chen in surprise and saw Lu Guichi coming out holding the wall. He was dressed neatly, but his face was pale and he looked a little weak.
However, Guan Chen's words seemed to help him regain some energy. At the very least, his face looked very ugly, and he looked like he could still fight with Guan Chen again.
"Fuck you, can you use your brain before you speak!" Lu Guichi cursed, "Can't you see how old Wuwu is? Do you think you can say anything to her?"
Guan Chen touched his aching head and sighed, "I understand. I will pay attention next time."
Lu Guichi snorted coldly.
Lin Wuwei raised her head, looked at Lu Guichi with her round eyes, then looked at Guan Chen, her gaze moving back and forth between the two of them, and said, "It seems that the beating you received was not light, otherwise you wouldn't have the energy to quarrel."
When Lu Guichi heard this, he felt so wronged, "Wuwu, I've been lying in bed for a week! At the beginning, I couldn't even move, and it was only in these two days that I was able to get out of bed. If you don't come to save me, my dad will come back tomorrow and hear about what I did, and he will drag me to the ancestral hall and beat me up again. Then I'm really done!"
Lin Wu nodded, "Then I should come back tomorrow."
Lu Guichi laughed dryly, "Don't. Ancestor, are you angry that I didn't help you down there at Pier 9? I really had no choice at the time. I didn't know I was tricked into going up there, and I was still wondering for a long time why I couldn't see you!"
Lin Wu unconsciously turned the ring on his right ring finger and said calmly: "I'm not angry."
Lu Guichi glanced at Guan Chen.
Guan Chen shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Lu Guichi sighed inwardly and had no choice but to reach out to Guan Chen, "Quick, lend me a hand and help me over."
Guan Chen stepped forward.
Lu Guichi slowly moved to the sofa and sat down. Because of his back injury, he couldn't lean back and sat upright. He said seriously, "Wuwu, I swear, if I knew you were in such danger down there, I would go down to find you myself no matter what!"
Lin Wu looked at him and suddenly asked, "Who are you?"
