Lu Rui's lips curled up slightly. "Your Wang family? You make it sound so nice. You were adopted, and now you're someone else's wife. Do you even consider yourself a member of the Wang family anymore?"
“You…” Wang Xueting’s face darkened, and she pointed at Lu Rui, unable to speak.
Lu Rui snorted coldly and said, "I've figured it out now. Grandma's tragic and unjust death was all the fault of your Wang family!"
After saying that, Lu Rui turned and left. He never wanted to see anyone from the Wang family again!
Holding his breath, Lu Rui arrived at the Wang family's house and jumped over the wall. After dusting himself off, Lu Rui stormed inside.
Gu Liyan and An Qianbai were having dinner when Lu Rui stormed in and asked with a puzzled look, "Did you come in by yourself?"
"Of course I came in by myself, how could I bring anyone else?" Lu Rui said matter-of-factly.
"No, I mean you jumped over the wall to get in here yourself?" Gu Liyan said with a smile.
Lu Rui was stunned for a moment, then realized, "Ah! I jumped in so easily!"
Gu Liyan looked at Lu Rui, whose complexion was rosy and radiant, and who looked quite divine. He immediately took out the mission scroll from his bosom and couldn't help but smile, "I didn't expect the source of life and death to be found so easily!"
Hearing Gu Liyan's words, An Qianbai smiled happily. So the mission was already halfway complete.
However, Gu Liyan's expression changed drastically when he saw the "Unfinished Marriage Matching Task" written on the back. "How is this possible? Why isn't the marriage matching task completed? Doesn't the marriage of the deceased count...?"
Thinking of this, Gu Liyan suddenly realized, "That's right! It's like this—the deceased's marriage was already arranged, so the marriage agreement signed during the mission is completely invalid!"
"Damn it! Where am I supposed to find my destined marriage now?!" Gu Liyan suddenly became furious, and Lu Rui dared not say anything.
Seeing that Gu Liyan was angry, An Qianbai put down her chopsticks and came over. She tugged at Gu Liyan's hand and pointed to the red chili peppers that Gu Liyan had picked out on the table.
Gu Liyan frowned and asked in confusion, "Chili pepper? Spicy..."
Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he stood up excitedly and said:
"Mala Tang? Lin Qianmo! Right, aren't that girl and Cang Yue a match made in heaven? How could I forget about them? I should just go find them!"
After hearing Gu Liyan's explanation, An Qianbai looked completely bewildered:
"I only asked you to help one of them find their destined partner, not to put them together!"
Being unable to speak is really a hassle!
Gu Liyan stood up. "Let's go! Let's find them!"
The three of them climbed over the wall and left the Wang family's house. Gu Liyan, relying on his nose, finally tracked them down to the police academy as the sun was setting.
Lu Rui said awkwardly, "Um... the guards here seem to be even stricter than those at the Wang family's..."
Gu Liyan frowned. "There's nothing the two of us can get in, except you can't climb over a four-meter-high wall."
Lu Rui was speechless. So the biggest hurdle in his life was the height he had to climb over the wall!
"How about this, I'll go in and take a look first. You two wait here for a bit," Gu Liyan said.
Before Lu Rui could nod, An Qianbai grabbed Gu Liyan's arm and looked at him pleadingly, "Take me with you! I'll go with you too!"
Gu Liyan naturally knew what she wanted to say, but still shook her head and refused, "You and Lu Rui can wait for me outside. I just want to confirm whether she is inside."
Hearing Gu Liyan's words, An Qianbai slowly let go of his hand. Gu Liyan felt sorry for her when he saw the disappointment in her eyes, so he patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'll be right back!"
Gu Liyan, transformed into a little fox, leaped up the four-meter-high wall, causing Lu Rui's lips to twitch. "I'm not a fox, how could I possibly get up there!"
...
Following the scent, Gu Liyan arrived at Lin Qianmo's room. Seeing that the skylight in the dormitory was open, he jumped in without thinking.
Upon landing, Gu Liyan immediately saw Lin Qianmo lying on the bed, her face pale.
Transforming into human form, Gu Liyan stepped forward and looked at Lin Qianmo with a puzzled expression. "Is she ill?"
Thinking this, she reached out to touch his forehead, but suddenly Lin Qianmo opened her eyes, grabbed Gu Liyan's wrist, and turned around to press Gu Liyan down on the bed.
"Ouch! It hurts! Qianmo, it's me! Don't hurt me!" Gu Liyan hurriedly said.
Lin Qianmo recognized Gu Liyan's voice. "It's you?"
Turning her head, Lin Qianmo glanced at the closed door and coldly asked, "How did you get in?"
"I came in through the skylight," Gu Liyan said truthfully.
"what you up to?"
"I... I think you seem to be sick, and I'd like to take a look at you," Gu Liyan said hurriedly.
Lin Qianmo pushed Gu Liyan to the ground. "Do you think it's okay to enter someone else's room without the owner's permission?"
Gu Liyan rubbed his arm. "No, I just wanted to see you..."
"Looking at me?" Lin Qianmo interrupted Gu Liyan. "You're not here to kill me to silence me, are you? After all, I know you trespassed on private property."
Gu Liyan glared at Lin Qianmo. "What are you thinking? Why would I kill you? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
"Then what can you do for me by coming to me?" Lin Qianmo looked at Gu Liyan with a suspicious expression.
"Ahem, I just feel we're destined to be together. So I'm planning to find you a spouse," Gu Liyan said seriously.
"So you're trying to find me a partner because we're destined to be together? Heh, you could just say you want to pursue me!" Lin Qianmo said with a smile.
"Cough cough cough..." Gu Liyan almost choked to death. "What are you thinking? I have someone I like!"
Lin Qianmo smiled slightly, "Yes, that makes sense, after all, you have that little girl with you."
