Huo Junyang told Huo Junyu about the strange things that happened at the hospital.
Huo Junyu understood immediately and sneered, "It seems that Xiaoyouzi is being controlled by Uncle Lu. Ha, if this Xiaoyouzi is real, then Lu Ming is also implicated in her kidnapping back then!"
"What if it's fake?" Huo Junyang added, "Then it means that Lu Ming was behind all of this!"
"Don't make a fuss about this yet," Huo Junyu said in a low voice. "It's not just because we don't have enough evidence, but also because... we need to consider Uncle Shan and Aunt Yuqing's feelings. They both believe they've found their daughter, and we can't dampen their spirits before the truth comes out."
"Yes, I understand... Brother, Lu Ming is definitely wary of us now, so we need to keep a low profile!"
"Ahem, it's you, not me." Huo Junyu chuckled. "Let's follow you again after your leg heals. With you hopping and skipping like that on crutches, anyone who's not blind or deaf will know what you're doing!"
Huo Junyang pouted, "Hey, you really don't plan to come back anytime soon? My foot is injured, aren't you going to come see me?"
"What are you looking at... for?"
"How dare you ask that? Have you no brotherly affection left? Am I still your beloved younger brother?!"
Faced with his younger brother's probing questions once again, Huo Junyu tried his best to suppress his laughter.
Then he told him seriously:
"You only have one leg, but I almost lost my love!"
"Damn it... Huo Junyu!!" Huo Junyang was so angry that his teeth itched and he got goosebumps all over.
Just then, Jiang Mianmian came downstairs.
Ignoring his younger brother's shouts, Huo Junyu hung up the phone, stood at attention, and waved to Jiang Mianmian with a smile.
As soon as Jiang Mianmian saw him, she remembered how he had tried to "reason" with her, and then she became furious.
She hadn't spoken to him for several days.
I still don't plan to talk to him today.
Jiang Mianmian ignored him and walked past him expressionlessly.
"Hey, Jiang Mianmian..." Huo Junyu quickly called out to her.
Jiang Mianmian stopped and simply turned her head to the side.
Huo Junyu hesitated for a moment.
He actually had a lot to say to her, but after racking his brains, all his words boiled down to one sentence—
"Um... I... when can I move back to the living room to sleep?"
Jiang Mianmian felt as if something had blasted her skull open!
She turned around and glared at him, then ran out of the house without saying a word.
"Jiang Mianmian!"
Huo Junyu shouted.
To be honest, he really wanted to slap himself at that moment... He had clearly prepared "I like you" in his mind, but how come his tongue wouldn't obey him in the end?
"Jiang Mianmian, stop right there!"
"What are you doing?" Jiang Mianmian replied fiercely.
"Where are you planning to go dressed like that?"
"What am I dressed like?" Jiang Mianmian was taken aback. It was still her usual white T-shirt and jeans, except that there was a small decorative brooch on the T-shirt.
"You...you always wear loungewear at home, don't you?" Huo Junyu stammered. "Now you're dressed like this, so...doesn't that mean you're going out? Where are you going?"
Jiang Mianmian pouted and rolled her eyes. "Is it any of your business?"
"I……"
Jiang Mianmian snorted coldly, ran straight to the alley entrance, hailed a car, and disappeared without a trace.
Huo Junyu relentlessly chased after the car, and as it disappeared from sight, he couldn't help but kick a small pebble off the roadside.
"Big brother! Door God Brother!" Jiang Xiaowei chased after him from her house, giving him an address. "My sister went here!"
Huo Junyu's eyes lit up.
It turned out that Jiang Xiaowei had been doing practice problems at home all morning. When she came to a problem she couldn't solve, she thought she would ask Jiang Mianmian for help, but she overheard her sister making a phone call in her room, saying that she was going to some restaurant...
Jiang Xiaowei noticed that her sister's tone on the phone didn't sound like she was talking to a classmate, so she worried that her sister might be scammed. So, when her sister wasn't looking, she slipped into her room and saw the note that Jiang Mianmian had written on her desk.
"Brother Door God, my sister is on her way to an appointment!" As she spoke, Jiang Xiaowei had already called a car on her phone. "Quick, get in the car, let's go after her!"
Huo Junyu gave him a grateful look.
I am deeply grateful and will repay your kindness many times over in the future!
He held the note in his hand and read it over and over again in the car.
It's that hotel again, the revolving restaurant on the top floor of the Best Level. It's obvious who invited Jiang Mianmian there...
Actually, when they went to that banquet last time, Huo Junyu noticed that the man's gaze towards Jiang Mianmian was abnormal.
Indeed, it's hard not to be attracted to a girl like Jiang Mianmian.
But she's his wife!
Although the certificate was fake, his desire to be with her was real!
Huo Junyu gripped the note tightly in his hand.
The car quickly arrived at the entrance of Best Level.
Huo Junyu had given the manager prior notice, so even though Gu Fengqing was just passing by, no one dared to stop him.
Not only did they not dare to stop him, the manager also rushed out to greet him personally, and respectfully asked if Gu Feng should also be asked to leave.
Huo Junyu coldly shook his head, "I'll go up myself, none of you follow me."
The manager did as instructed, arranging for everyone to stay downstairs and not to go up and disturb them.
Huo Junyu took the elevator to the revolving restaurant, quietly walked behind a decorative wall, and observed what was happening there.
Gu Feng and Jiang Mianmian were sitting facing each other. Gu Feng poured a glass of wine, but Jiang Mianmian politely declined.
“Mr. Gu, please just say what you have to say.” Jiang Mianmian said softly, “My husband doesn’t like people beating around the bush, and neither do I.”
