Chapter 291 But I don't want to see you sad.



Fearing she wouldn't agree, Gong Wujue added, "I have to go back to training tomorrow. I don't know when I'll be able to see you again after this departure."

Shangguan Wu gestured to Gu Yunzhen to eat, then asked, "Senior brother, where are you now? Can I bring someone over?"

After a two-second silence on the phone, Gong Wujue replied, "Okay."

He thought that his junior sister must have brought an extra person along to avoid suspicion.

But to his surprise, his junior sister brought that man with her. When he first saw the man, a hint of something unsettling flashed in his eyes.

He knew very well that he was late.

Shangguan Wu smiled faintly: "Senior brother, it's been a long time."

No matter how dangerous the mission or how grand the scene, Gong Wujue could always remain calm and composed in the face of danger. But at this moment, he was still in shock, and even his reaction was slow.

"...Long time no see, junior sister."

Shangguan Wu stood intimately close to Gu Yunzhen, linking her arm with his, and said to Gong Wujue, "Senior brother, let me introduce you. This is my lover, Gu Yunzhen."

After saying that, she said to Gu Yunzhen, "Husband, this is my senior brother, Gong Wujue."

The word "love" almost made Gong Wujue lose his smile.

Although he had guessed it, the feeling was different when she said it herself. The dull, aching pain in his chest was like a fish being pulled ashore, gradually becoming oxygen-deprived until he could hardly breathe.

Looking at the man with an air of righteous indignation in front of her, Gu Yunzhen felt her alarm subside and extended her hand to him: "Hello."

Upon hearing this, Gong Wujue stared into the other person's eyes. Anyone with a guilty conscience couldn't withstand his scrutiny, but his junior sister's... lover remained calm and composed, showing no hint of smugness or mockery in his eyes.

She treated him as if he were her junior sister's family or friend.

He lost.

Gong Wujue shook hands with him: "Hello."

As Shangguan Wu watched them shake hands, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes crinkling with a smile.

Upon seeing her smile, Gong Wujue quickly composed himself and smiled as well, inviting the couple to sit down.

Gu Yunzhen sat opposite the man without showing any emotion.

Gong Wujue knew that Shangguan Wu liked milk tea, so he didn't order any alcohol. He handed her a cup of Youlan Latte instead.

"Your preferences haven't changed, have they?"

"Nothing has changed, thank you, senior brother."

Shangguan Wu took the Youlan Latte and started drinking it.

Gong Wujue breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, "It's been so long since we last met. I thought your tastes had changed, and I was worried I would buy the wrong thing you like."

Shangguan Wu blinked: "Drinking milk tea will make you feel better, and you'll never get tired of it even if you drink it for a lifetime."

Gong Wujue's smile froze for a moment.

It's just a drink, yet she never gets tired of it. So, if she likes someone, will her feelings for them never change?

Gu Yunzhen reminded her, "But you'll gain weight if you drink it every day."

Shangguan Wu rolled her eyes at him, but before she could speak, Gong Wujue said, "It's alright, Junior Sister's physique is not prone to gaining weight."

Gu Yunzhen's eyebrows twitched slightly.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, so Shangguan Wu took the initiative to start a conversation: "Senior brother, were you injured on this mission? Did it go smoothly?"

"No injuries, everything went very smoothly."

Gong Wujue also sensed his unease and cooperated by saying, "He answered whatever our people asked. At first, we suspected it was a scam, so we spent two extra days verifying it. Once we confirmed it was true, we successfully raided the drug traffickers' headquarters based on his confession. No police officers were injured. The Narcotics Division will hold a press conference later, and there should be news coming out soon."

Regardless of why Scarface was so open and honest, for them, this was the most successful major operation ever!

They fought a very brilliant battle!

In the future, international drug lords will think twice before reaching out to China, considering whether they can afford to provoke the Chinese military!

"Without your selfless dedication, we ordinary people would not enjoy the peace and tranquility we have today."

Shangguan Wu spoke earnestly, then suddenly turned to look at Gu Yunzhen: "Honey, shall we order a bottle of wine to celebrate?"

A glint of light flashed in Gu Yunzhen's eyes as he stared at her. She must have hypnotized the drug dealer to cause this situation.

Seeing her happy, he nodded indulgently: "Okay."

After saying that, he picked up the phone and called Gu Shiyi, who was outside the door.

Gong Wujue frowned: "If you can't hold your liquor, then don't drink."

Shangguan Wu smiled and said, "I'll just have one drink. Let my husband and senior brother drink the rest."

Gong Wujue looked at her helplessly: "Are you sure you can only drink one glass? You clearly can't hold your liquor, but you still insist on drinking. What will you do when you feel unwell later!"

Gu Yunzhen put down her phone and said casually, "I'll keep an eye on her. She'll only be allowed to take a sip."

Shangguan Wu's beautiful eyes widened: "Didn't we agree on one cup?"

Gu Yunzhen raised an eyebrow: "When did I agree to that?"

Shangguan Wu: "..."

Seeing his junior sister choked and unable to speak, a sentence popped into Gong Wujue's mind—good love is about one thing subduing another.

Although her junior sister was being looked after, it was clear from her eyes that she was very happy. Gong Wujue should be happy for her, but he still felt a sour and uncomfortable feeling in his heart.

Suddenly, Gong Wujue composed himself and said seriously, "Scarface said he originally led a group to cross the border and escape the country, but they met someone in the forest who paid him to kidnap you. Scarface said he only wanted to make some money to make a comeback abroad, he didn't intend to kill you. Do you know who wants to harm you?"

Gu Yunzhen's handsome face darkened slightly: "Those are Xiao Jingming's men."

Shangguan Wu continued, "Xiao Jingming wanted me to treat his brother's leg, but I refused. So he resorted to these underhanded tactics to force me to comply."
