Chapter 517: I'm a tool, confirmed.



She didn't go upstairs.

Instead, he called Yan Yirou.

"Rou Rou, I'm downstairs at the hospital. Do you have time to come down and talk?"

"Oh? You're free? I'll be right there!"

Yan Yirou hung up the phone and said to Gu Chenye, "Wu Bao is here, downstairs. I'm going to see her~"

Gu Chenye didn't ask any further questions and nodded: "Mm."

Yan Yirou hurried downstairs and was quite surprised when she saw Shangguan Wu: "What's wrong with you? You look so down."

Shangguan Wu asked her, "Do you believe in intuition?"

Why would you ask that?

Yan Yirou's eyelids twitched. Remembering that the Fourth Young Master had gone on a long trip, she suddenly widened her eyes: "Has something happened?"

No wonder she's in such poor spirits.

Before Shangguan Wu could speak, Yan Yirou leaned closer and whispered comfortingly, "Oh, don't worry. Fourth Young Master is the male lead. No matter what dangers he encounters, he will always turn bad luck into good. Even if everyone else dies, he will definitely come back to see you!"

Shangguan Wu also convinced himself in the same way.

But there's always a dissenting voice.

"You said I'm the female lead, but didn't I die a terrible death in my past life?"

Well!

Yan Yirou's lips twitched, and she said jokingly, "It's different. Heaven obviously favors its own sons more. I didn't expect even God to be sexist. Humph!"

"Pfft~"

Shangguan Wu was amused by her, gazed at her intently for a while, and then suddenly reached out and hugged her: "Thank you, Rou Rou."

Yan Yirou felt quite embarrassed.

She gently patted Shangguan Wu's back, trying hard to recall the plot of the book, but unfortunately she couldn't remember where the address of the Divine Envoy Organization had appeared, or perhaps there had never been a specific address.

"I'm so sorry, Wu Bao, I really can't remember if the book mentioned a specific address. I only know that the Divine Envoy Organization has a headquarters and branches. The headquarters is on an island overseas. I can't help you anymore." Yan Yirou said, feeling very frustrated.

She never made a point of remembering place names in books, so when she tried to recall them, her mind went blank.

Shangguan Wu was taken aback at first, then released her and said seriously, "You have already helped me a lot, Rou Rou. You don't need to apologize. I should be thanking you. I feel much better now. Thank you for coming down to keep me company."

Yan Yirou said anxiously, "Stop thanking me all the time. We don't say that between us. If you say it again, I'll get angry!"

Shangguan Wu leaned back in his chair and smiled at her.

"What are you laughing at?" Yan Yirou felt something was off.

Shangguan Wu winked at her and smiled gently: "With you as my lucky charm, I believe my husband will definitely come back!"

Seeing that her mood had improved, Yan Yirou lay down with Ge You and said, "Hmm, I'm definitely a tool now."

Immediately, Shangguan Wu burst out laughing and coaxed her, "No, you are my precious baby."

Yan Yirou glanced at her sideways: "Isn't your darling your husband?"

Shangguan Wu nodded in deep agreement, then immediately changed his tune: "Oh, then you're second, little darling."

Yan Yirou rolled her eyes: "Isn't this little darling my godson?"

That's undeniable.

Shangguan Wu cleared his throat and said, "Alright, you're Third Brother's precious darling, I won't fight with Third Brother for you."

Yan Yirou: "..."

"I've never seen such a fickle woman as you!"

"That's because you're ignorant."

Shangguan Wu smiled, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons. Suddenly, she saw someone walk into the hospital building, and her expression turned serious: "Why is she in the capital?"

Yan Yirou followed her gaze.

"Holy crap! It's Xia Zilu?"

Yan Yirou exclaimed in surprise, rolled down the car window, pointed at Xia Zilu, and instructed Liu Kui outside: "Follow that woman in the white dress and see what she's doing at the hospital."

"Yes, Miss."

After confirming who it was, Liu Kui followed.

Shangguan Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

Yan Yirou looked puzzled: "Why would Xia Zilu come to the capital at this time? Isn't she taking the college entrance exam next month?"

Shangguan Wu said, "We'll find out soon enough."

Yan Yirou suddenly asked, "By the way, didn't Fourth Young Master send someone to keep an eye on her? Such a big thing as her coming to the capital city couldn't possibly go unreported, could it?"

"Something must have happened." The person belongs to Gu Yunzhen, so there's no possibility of betrayal. If no news has come in, it could mean something happened, or it could mean the communication channels haven't been connected.

Du Wei and Meng Wen, who were responsible for coordinating the communication, were both dispatched by her.

She rubbed her temples, took out her phone, found Gu Shisan's number, and dialed it.

The call was answered almost instantly.

"Fourth Young Madam, I have something to report to you."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wu guessed it was related to Xia Zilu and asked, "What is it?"

Just as expected!

Gu Shisan said on the phone, "Xia Zilu has come to the capital. It was the Ji family's eldest branch who took her away and injured our people."

So, did Xia Zilu come to the hospital to see Yan Yixuan?

A cold glint flashed in Shangguan Wu's eyes, disappearing in an instant.

She then asked, "Are our people seriously injured?"

Gu Shisan hadn't expected her to ask this, and replied truthfully, "It's quite serious, but she's already been taken to the hospital. The surgery was successful, and she'll be fine after three months of rest. Fourth Young Madam, there's no need to worry."

It takes a hundred days to recover from a bone or muscle injury.

In an instant, Shangguan Wu's face turned as cold as frost.

"I understand. Please thank him and tell him to take good care of himself. I'll settle this score with the eldest branch of the Ji family."

"Fourth Young Madam, please don't stand on ceremony. Before Du Wei returns to the country, let Fifteen stay with you. Before he left, the Fourth Young Master instructed us all to listen to you."
