As night deepened, with a bright moon and few stars, a few large lights illuminated the ground in the dark woods.
The car door opened, and several people quickly got out.
It was Fifth Brother's men, including Gu Teng, who came to pick them up.
"Fifth Master, is Miss Bai alright?"
Gu Teng glanced at Bai Qianmo and, after confirming that she was safe and sound, breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Miss Bai is alright, Master is alright too; that's an ironclad rule.
If anything were to happen to Miss Bai today, I fear the master would go mad.
Gu Jueye patted Bai Qianmo's head: "You go back with Gu Teng first. Daze and I have some things to take care of."
"Should I go with you?" She guessed that Fifth Brother was going to return to the Earth's core with Daze.
To be honest, she was very curious about what kind of world it was.
Gu Jueye guessed what she was planning in her clever little head.
"Be good and wait for me at home. That place isn't suitable for you right now."
It would be inappropriate to bring Qianmo over without the permission of the Earth Core Elder.
Moreover, out of personal considerations, he didn't want those people in the Earth's core to notice her for the time being.
Bai Qianmo frowned and pursed her lips.
He muttered a dissatisfied complaint: "So stingy."
Gu Jueye couldn't help but chuckle when he heard her words.
"When I have time in the future, I will take you there by myself, just the two of us."
"You said it yourself."
"Yes, I said so."
Du Muchen, who was standing nearby, quickly came over.
"Xiao Momo, I know you're worried about him. How about this, I'll reluctantly go with him."
Du Muchen volunteered, mainly because he seemed to have realized today that his childhood friend still had many secrets.
It successfully piqued his curiosity.
Having dealt with all sorts of people before, this was my first time having contact with aliens, and it felt quite exciting.
"Is the wound on your arm alright?" Bai Qianmo looked at his injured arm.
"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."
Bai Qianmo didn't say anything more. She understood what Chen Ge was thinking. Like her, he was driven by curiosity and wanted to broaden his horizons.
"Hehe, Mr. Du, the Duke can rest assured that I'm here with you. Someone like you, with your injuries, should go home and recuperate. There are some places that are really not for you to go."
This is a sarcastic jab at Du Muchen's poor performance in Antarctica.
Du Muchen's handsome face immediately darkened.
"Who gave you the right to interrupt me? Get out of here."
Daze chuckled coldly twice: "Oh, by the way, when you see Miss Su, remember to give her my regards. Whenever she has time and wants to see the UFO, I'd be happy to oblige."
Osawa's words were highly provocative.
Bai Qianmo's bright, watery eyes darted back and forth between Da Ze and Du Muchen's bruised faces.
It seems she missed a good show.
Du Muchen gave a cold, expressionless snort.
"I don't have time to relay messages for unimportant people. Seventh Brother, just one question: are you taking me with you or not?"
As long as Gu Jueye takes him there, Da Ze won't be able to do anything about it.
"Gu Teng".
"Owner!"
"Take Young Master Du back."
"yes!"
Is this a rejection?
Du Muchen's peach blossom eyes widened as he stared at Gu Jueye in disbelief.
We've been childhood friends, can't you give me some face? You can't even grant me this small wish, brother?
You little brat, just you wait, I'll go and complain about you to the old man and the old woman another day.
Having missed out on a chance to broaden his horizons, Du Muchen turned and left, seething with anger.
After saying goodbye to Gu Jueye, Bai Qianmo and Gu Jueye got into the car back to the city together.
The two were lost in their own thoughts in the car and remained silent for the rest of the journey.
As they approached the research institute, Du Muchen suddenly remembered something.
"Little Momo, have you noticed that Lao Qi has been acting strangely lately?"
"How so?"
Du Muchen frowned and voiced some of the thoughts he had been having recently.
"The current Seventh Brother is more sullen and reserved than before. You can't tell his true thoughts from his face at all. He's also more indifferent and distant than before. Although he always looked down on us brothers before, we knew in our hearts that he was just being mean-spirited. In fact, he cared about us."
But lately, he's been avoiding us. Even when we try to meet him, his subordinates refuse, and we can't even see him. He seems like a completely different person now.
Du Muchen and Gu Jueye grew up together, so he would naturally notice any major changes in Gu Jueye very quickly.
Not only him, but also Ji Cong'an and the others noticed something amiss.
If it weren't for this identical face, he would have thought that the Gu Jueye in front of him had been replaced.
Bai Qianmo remained silent.
She didn't know where to begin when it came to the relationship between her fifth brother and Gu Jueye.
How could she tell Du Muchen that the current Fifth Brother was Gu Jueye, but a Gu Jueye who traveled back a hundred years from the present and then lived back to the present?
Having experienced turbulent times and witnessed countless partings and deaths, a person's character will naturally change.
“Brother Chen, Fifth Brother is Gu Jueye, they are the same person.”
Du Muchen stared intently into Bai Qianmo's eyes for a moment.
He believed what Xiao Momo said. In this world, only Gu Jueye would risk his life to save her, regardless of his own safety. Even though Xiao Momo's personality had changed drastically and he felt very unfamiliar with him, his love for Qianmo was unconditional.
