Gu Liyan glanced at the illusory soul, thought for a moment, and reached out to take it. "I'll consider it."
"As for the other task I mentioned to you before... I hope you can find a way to complete it as well, if possible," the Void Soul said earnestly.
Gu Liyan nodded. "I remember."
Seeing Gu Liyan nod, Xu Hun finally left with peace of mind.
Gu Liyan looked at the reagent in his hand and sighed, "This is a real hot potato!"
The night sky is completely dark; the once starry sky is no more!
Hua Baixian, who had just finished dinner and tidied up, entered the room and saw Gu Liyan staring blankly at the sky outside the window. Seeing his melancholy gaze, she had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
Hua Baixian walked over and gently hugged Gu Liyan's waist from behind, pressing her face against his back and softly saying, "Little Li, if you have something on your mind, tell me about it."
Gu Liyan let out a long sigh and said, "I don't know why, but I'm very scared..."
Gu Liyan grabbed Hua Baixian's hand and said, "I'm afraid our current life will be disrupted."
Hua Baixian comforted her, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Gu Liyan nodded. "I hope so..."
Faced with this choice, Gu Liyan hesitated. He wanted to maintain the status quo and be with the person he loved. But what would happen to Hua Baixian if something happened to him…?
All Gu Liyan can do now is wait for the courage within her to overcome her selfishness.
This was a morning no one looked forward to. Lin Momo had slept for a while but couldn't fall back asleep. Today was her wedding...
Lin Momo hurriedly said early on, "Sister Zi'er, let's go!"
"What's the rush? It's not like you're getting married!" Luo Zichen said irritably. "The moment you can see a little bit, you're like a horse that's been released from its slumber!"
Lin Momo didn't care about Luo Zichen's disdain; today she was here to steal the bride! Avoiding the patients wearing masks they encountered along the way, Lin Momo and the others slipped out through the back door, but they couldn't flag down a single car.
"What's wrong with this driver? Why won't he take us?" Luo Zichen complained. "If we can't get a taxi soon, I'm going to stage an accident to extort money!"
Gu Tao, who was behind her, saw that the passengers getting into the taxi not far away were wearing masks, and immediately said, "Maybe it's because they are wearing masks and we are not? After all, a lot of people have been sick recently, so everyone is aware of the need for prevention."
Lin Momo hurriedly said, "Never mind, let's flag down a car, we're running out of time."
Upon hearing this, Luo Zichen jumped onto the road without saying a word and opened her arms to stop the car.
The van stopped in front of Luo Zichen. Before Luo Zichen could speak, the van door opened and said, "Get in!"
Lin Momo got into the car without thinking, and Gu Li, Gu Tao and the others behind her also got in.
Luo Zichen asked curiously, "What, you two know each other?"
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Gu Muqing, and Gu Liyan is my sworn brother," Gu Muqing said, then started the car. "Are you going to Yan Xiyue's wedding?"
"Yes, that's right." Luo Zichen nodded, still somewhat puzzled. "How come I've never heard of Gu Liyan having a younger sister?"
Gu Muqing said with a melancholy look in her eyes, "It happened a long time ago. I only remembered the details recently..."
Gu Liyan was recently hospitalized, and Gu Muqing originally planned to stay by his side. However, for some reason, seeing Hua Yuxian brought back a flood of memories. It wasn't until she had fully processed these memories at home these past two days that she made her choice of team composition.
She wanted to help Gu Liyan, even though he liked Hua Baixian. They weren't blood siblings, but the care Gu Liyan had shown her was absolutely worth everything she had given him!
Gu Muqing said, "I had someone investigate. Yan Xiyue married the young master of the Gongsun family. The Gongsun family is very wealthy and invited many celebrities to the event. In addition, Yan Xiyue's family is also in the military. If we act rashly, I'm afraid something big will happen."
Upon hearing Gu Muqing's information, Luo Zichen patted his chest and said with a look of lingering fear, "Thank goodness for your information, otherwise we would have gone to steal the bride, and I really don't know how we would have ended up like that."
Lin Momo's face turned pale upon hearing this, and cold sweat dripped down her back. Gu Li, who was standing beside her, asked, "Girl, are you alright?"
Lin shook her head. "My eyes hurt a little, but I think it should be fine."
"There's still a long way to go. You should rest for a bit. We'll call you when we get there." Gu Li nodded.
Lin Momo's eyes hurt for a while, but the pain subsided. However, she was surprised to find that the blurry outlines in her vision had become much clearer, and she could also vaguely see many green spots floating in the car.
In addition, Luo Zichen, Gu Li, and Gu Tao in the field of vision were covered with a layer of golden light, while Gu Muqing's light was much fainter. As for the butler Gu Cheng and Xiao Ying who came with them, they were white.
Lin Momo noticed the green spots inside the car approaching Luo Zichen. Gu Li and Xiao Tao immediately turned into wisps of smoke, while Gu Muqing was flung away, and Gu Cheng and Xiao Ying were unable to penetrate the barrier.
"Strange..." Lin Momo wondered to herself, "How could this be?"
Lin Momo looked at her hands, noticing that her body was a different shade of red than theirs. "This is really strange!"
The car stopped at the banquet entrance, and Gu Muqing said, "We've arrived!"
Lin Momo hurriedly opened the car door and got out, followed by the others.
Gu Muqing saw many familiar faces, including Zhang Tianqi, Lin Pingyu, Jin Xiaochen, and many celebrities she often saw on TV.
Jin Xiaochen recognized Gu Muqing. While searching for beauties at the banquet, he spotted Gu Muqing and exclaimed loudly, "Hey, isn't this Mo Li's sister? Why didn't Mo Li come with you?"
