Chapter 172 The mastermind, congratulations on becoming a father again

Leng Yu, Leng Chen and others drew their swords and rushed out when the black-clothed man appeared, protecting Xie Jing and Jiang Youning behind them.

Xie Jing held Jiang Youning tightly with his hands and looked at the black-clothed man in front of him coldly.

"Leave him alive."

Leng Yu replied, "Yes, master."

The black-clothed man was obviously stunned when he saw the dark guards who suddenly appeared. He didn't expect that they brought dark guards with them.

For a while, Leng Yu and others fought with the black-clothed man.

There were so many black-clothed men that it was impossible to tell who would win in a short time.

Jiang Youning still had a bit of hot cheeks in her mouth. Looking at the chaotic scene in front of her, she didn't know whether to eat or not.

Xie Jing saw that the black-clothed men were all quite skilled, and there were so many of them that he didn't know when the fight would end.

He pushed Jiang Youning aside and said, "Stand still."

Jiang Youning nodded vigorously, "I understand, General."

Xie Jing drew out the soft sword from his waist, came to Leng Yu, and pressed his shoulders, "Go and protect her."

Leng Yu immediately understood that the master was going to do it himself.

"Yes, master." Leng Yu retreated in front of Jiang Youning and protected her behind him.

Xie Jing held the soft sword tightly and stabbed at the black-clothed man.

Jiang Youning looked at Leng Yu who suddenly came over, "Why don't you go to help?"

Leng Yu said, "The master wants me to protect the lady."

Jiang Youning said, "Of course I know you are here to protect me, I want you to help."

Leng Yu said, "I have to protect the lady so that the master can focus."

Jiang Youning understood that Xie Jing was worried about her and was just in case.

When she looked at Xie Jing again, he was already wielding a soft sword and fighting with the man in black.

Xie Jing's swordsmanship was not fancy, and his swordsmanship was neat and crisp. He focused on merit and used every move to kill the enemy.

After a while, the man in black was at a disadvantage.

Under Xie Jing's leadership, the man in black was quickly subdued.

Jiang Youning was so excited when she saw the gift that she exclaimed, "So awesome."

Xie Jing looked up at Jiang Youning and saw her eyes curved. After putting away the soft sword, he ordered, "Take it back."

"Yes, Master." Leng Xiao took his brothers and Jiang Huo's black-clothed men back.

When Xie Jing came to Jiang Youning, Leng Yu had already gone to help.

Jiang Youning looked up and down at Xie Jing. Just now, he was fighting with a group of people. The swords were silent. They were too fast, and it was unknown whether he was injured.

Xie Jing saw what she was thinking at a glance, "I'm not injured."

Jiang Youning was relieved after hearing that, "It's good that I'm not injured. I don't know why so many assassins suddenly appeared?"

"We'll find out." Xie Jing held her hand and said, "Let's go back."

Jiang Youning didn't dare to continue shopping. She nodded and followed Xie Jing back to Gu's house.

Along the way, Xie Jing didn't let go of Jiang Youning's hand, for fear of accidents.

Back at Gu's house, Xie Jing told Gu Changyu what happened today.

"The person has been captured."

Gu Changyu frowned. Susu and her son had just returned a few days ago and encountered assassins. They really couldn't wait a moment.

"Where is the person? I want to interrogate him."

Xie Jing looked at Leng Xiao, "Bring him in."

Leng Xiao responded, and when he came back in after going out, he brought the black-clothed man and the man who bumped into Jiang Youning on the street.

Gu Changyu glanced at the men kneeling on the ground, "Who sent you here?"

The black-clothed man lowered his head and said nothing, looking ready to die.

Gu Changyu was not in a hurry, and ordered in a cold voice, "Come on, take them away for interrogation."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Chi came in with his men and took the black-clothed man kneeling on the ground away.

After everyone left, Gu Changyu looked at Xie Jing, "Some people in the mansion are restless. Due to their status and power, they cannot be arrested without favorable evidence. As long as they are caught, it will be easier to get evidence."

Xie Jing immediately understood what Gu Changyu meant, and it also explained that the Gu family is a large family with complicated relationships between direct and collateral families.

Where there are people, there will be competition. The family business is huge, and the competition is even more intense, no less than the internal struggles in the court.

Those people today were obviously coming for him and Aning.

"Dad's house is restless, I am a little worried about Mom living here."

Gu Changyu has been in charge for many years, and the internal house struggles have never stopped.

The son's concern is not unreasonable.

"Don't worry, if I can't even protect Susu, I'm too weak."

Xie Jing knew that Gu Changyu was very strong. In terms of kung fu, the two were equally matched, but everyone would be careless sometimes.

Aning was also kidnapped twice, and the third time the kidnapper was caught.

"Then Dad should send more secret guards to protect Mom in case of accidents."

Gu Changyu said, "Well, I will send someone to protect Susu."

After Xie Jing went back, Gu Changyu arranged four secret guards to take turns to protect Susu.

Ye Chi spent several hours interrogating the mastermind behind the scenes and reported to Gu Changyu as soon as possible.

Gu Changyu just came out from Xie Susu, saw Ye Chi, and went directly to the study.

Ye Chi followed him tacitly.

In the study room

Gu Changyu asked, "How is the investigation going?"

Ye Chi said, "Master, we have found out the mastermind behind the scenes, it is Master Gu San."

Gu Changyu's eyes flashed fiercely when he heard this, "I knew he was restless and couldn't wait to take action so quickly."

Ye Chi asked, "Master, what are you going to do?"

Gu Changyu sneered, "He has always been unwilling to let me take the position of the head of the family, and has been making small moves behind his back. This time, I will solve it in front of everyone."

Ye Chi immediately understood what his master meant when he heard this.

Gu Changyu ordered: "Go and prepare all the evidence. Let the third brother know today that there is a price to pay for doing wrong."

"Yes, master." Ye Chi received

the order and left. Gu Changqi paced back and forth in the study. There was still no news about the people he sent out, and he didn't know what happened to them.

Just when Gu Changqi was getting impatient, the servant came to report.

"Third Master, the master of the family wants you to go to the meeting room for something."

Gu Changqi's eyes froze when he heard it. Could it be that something happened to Xie Jing and Jiang Youning?

Why didn't they come back to report it after the matter was settled?

Gu Changqi went to the meeting room with doubts.

When he arrived at the meeting room, he found that it was full of people.

Gu Changyu sat high on the first seat, and he was majestic without being angry.

After Gu Changqi walked in, he stepped forward to greet him, "What does the master want me to do?"

Gu Changyu glanced at Gu Changqi coldly and sneered, "Third brother, why did I call you here, don't you know it well?"

Gu Changqi was startled when he heard this, and glanced at everyone present, even his second uncle and others were here.

They would only gather together in major events.

Gu Changqi had a bad feeling in his heart.

"I don't understand what the master means."

Gu Changyu didn't waste time talking to Gu Changqi when he heard this, and said coldly, "Ye Chi, bring the man up."

Ye Chi had been outside the door, and when he heard the order, he immediately sent someone to bring the man in black in.

When Gu Changqi saw the people coming in, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and showed an unbelievable look. No wonder Gu Changyu's eyes were a little strange today and he called everyone over.

After Xie Jing knew that the mastermind behind the scenes was found out, Gu Changyu was ready to deal with those who had been restless.

It would be a good thing if it could be solved. If it can't be solved, you can only do it yourself.

When Jiang Youning woke up, she saw Xie Jing holding a round fan to fan her, but that handsome face was very cold.

It was summer, and Jiang Youning took a nap for a while and was sweating all over.

"General?"

Xie Jing saw her wake up, put down the round fan, and asked her: "Do you like it here?"

Jiang Youning paused and looked at Xie Jing in confusion, "If the general lives here, I will naturally live here too. If the general does not live here, I will follow him. It doesn't matter whether I like it or not. We can't have a long-distance relationship, right?"

Xie Jingwen understood what she meant. Husband and wife should be together. Even if they don't like it, they will live here. No matter how reluctant they are, they will follow their husbands.

This is probably the husband singing and the wife

following. Mother finally reunited with father. If she took her away because she was afraid that she would get into danger and separated from father, she would not be willing to do so.

Jiang Youning approached in confusion, "General, you don't want to leave me here, do you?"

Xie Jing looked up and saw Aning's beautiful almond eyes, staring at him without blinking.

"I won't leave you here, even if..."

Jiang Youning asked, "Even if what?"

Xie Jing's dark eyes stared at her closely, "Even if I don't survive this year, I won't leave you here."

Jiang Youning was stunned at first, then she realized that the time for Xie Jing to go to war was getting closer and closer.

Xie Jing noticed that her eyes darkened, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Youning shook her head, "Nothing, I didn't expect the general to think of so much."

Xie Jing said, "This is called planning ahead."

Jiang Youning understood.

During dinner, Jiang Youning learned that Gu Changyu had found out the mastermind behind the incident, that is, the third master Gu Changqi. The evidence was solid and he was locked up in a confinement room.

Now the Gu family is in an uproar because of this incident.

Jiang Youning couldn't help but praise, "Dad is still very efficient." Xie

Jing didn't comment.

After solving the problem of Gu Changqi, Gu Changyu breathed a sigh of relief.

Late at night, Gu Changyu returned to the house and saw Susu sitting at the table reading a book. He suddenly thought of what his son said.

At that time, he was not yet the head of the family. As the saying goes, it is easy to dodge an open spear, but it is difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark.

It must be difficult for Susu to follow him.

"Susu."

Xie Susu looked up when she heard the voice. Seeing Gu Changyu coming back, she closed the book and put it on the table, then stood up to greet him.

"Are you done?"

"Yes, I dealt with the third brother's matter today. He has been restless all these years, and today I finally solved it."

Xie Susu said, "Then I'll ask someone to prepare hot water."

Gu Changyu was sweating a lot, so he naturally wanted to take a shower first.

"Yes."

After the hot water was ready, Gu Changyu went to take a shower.

Xie Susu began to make the bed and prepare to rest.

After Gu Changyu came out of the shower, he saw that Xie Susu was only wearing a thin dress, and the dark green bellyband inside was clearly visible.

She was less than 40 years old, but she still maintained a good figure, with a slender figure. He looked at her for a long time on the wedding night.

He went up and hugged Susu, resting his chin on her shoulder, and called softly, "Susu."

Xie Susu paused, raised her head and looked at the person behind her, "Are you tired?"

Gu Changyu chuckled, "I'm not tired, I just miss you a little."

A trace of doubt flashed in Xie Susu's eyes, and when she found that the restless hand came to her waist, she reacted.

"Go to bed."

Gu Changyu whispered in her ear: "Susu, go to bed later."

Xie Susu didn't understand what Gu Changyu meant at first, but later she realized that it was too late.

The next day, Xie Susu got up late again. When Rong was serving her, he saw the mark on Susu's neck, but he just smiled and covered it with powder.

Then he looked at Xie Susu in the bronze mirror, "Madam has become younger after getting married."

Xie Susu raised her eyes and looked at herself in the mirror. She was indeed a little different from before.

When Xie Jing brought Jiang Youning to see Xie Susu, he also saw that she was very different from before.

"Mom, Aning and I are going back to Jinling tomorrow."

Xie Susu knew that her son and daughter-in-law would have to go back sooner or later, but she was still reluctant to let them go when the day came.

"Won't you play for a few more days?"

Xie Jing said, "My son has some things to deal with when he goes back."

Xie Susu knew that her son was very busy, and she had to let him go no matter how reluctant she was.

"Then you should pay more attention when you go back, and get along well with Youning."

Xie Jing glanced at Jiang Youning, "Mom, I will."

Gu Changyu was also reluctant to let his son and daughter-in-law go back to Jinling.

Everyone had dinner together.

Gu Changyu looked at his son, "We have known each other for a short time, and now we have to separate. You must be careful on the battlefield. As for your mother.

He glanced at Susu beside him, "I will take good care of her, you don't have to worry."

Xie Susu said, "I'm not a child, Jing'er, go back with peace of mind. Next time when I'm free, your father and I will go back to Nanjing to see you."

Xie Jing said, "Son knows, mother put it down."

Gu Changyu picked up the dish and put it in the bowl in front of Susu, "Try the meat."

"Okay." Xie Susu held the chopsticks tightly, picked up the meat in the bowl, put it in her mouth and took a bite. Before she swallowed it, she spit it out.

Gu Changyu was shocked when he saw this, "Susu, what's wrong with you? "

Xie Susu shook her head, "I'm fine, maybe a little greasy."

Gu Changyu was a little worried, "I'll let the doctor take a look at you, otherwise I won't feel at ease."

Xie Susu stopped him and said softly, "I'm really fine, maybe..."

Gu Changyu asked, "But what?"

Xie Susu looked at Gu Changyu with a worried face, a little shy, "I may be pregnant."

Gu Changyu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Susu's belly in surprise, "Am I going to be a father again?"

Xie Susu said, "I'm not sure yet." Gu Changyu said happily, "It

must be correct. I hope this baby is a girl, so that we will have both a son and a daughter. "

Xie Susu looked at the excited Gu Changyu and reminded him with a smile, "Don't be too happy yet. It's not too late to be happy after it's confirmed."

Gu Changyu said excitedly, "Bring me home after dinner, I'll ask the doctor to see you."

Xie Susu nodded.

Xie Jing didn't expect that he would have a younger brother or sister, but he was also happy.

Jiang Youning was a little surprised that his mother got pregnant so quickly. She had a baby after only one and a half months of marriage?

Gu Changyu looked at his son and daughter-in-law, "Jing'er, it's time for you to work hard."

Xie Jing nodded, "I know, Dad." "

Jiang Youning lowered her head and ate the rice in the bowl with a guilty conscience. She and Xie Jing still had to get up early~

Good morning, babies!
