"OK!"
Senior Brother Lin nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Today, I spent almost the entire day keeping watch in the cars near the Gu family's house, eating mostly hamburgers and buns. To be honest, Senior Brother Lin was actually starting to crave some.
The three Chu brothers all looked at their senior brother Lin with disdain, truly not treating him like a guest!
"Uncle Chef, could you please cook a bowl of wontons for my senior brother too? Lots of them!"
A chef wearing a chef's hat peeked out from the kitchen, smiling as he replied, "Alright, would Miss Tangbao like it too?"
Tang Bao immediately nodded her little head again, raised her tender little finger, and said in a childish voice, "Mmm, one more bowl is enough!"
"OK!"
The chef smiled and hurried into the kitchen to cook wontons for Tang Bao and Master Lin.
The maid brought Lin, the senior brother, a glass of water, which he gulped down in one go. He then roughly wiped his mouth and exclaimed, "I'm so thirsty!"
Chu Yifan rolled his eyes in annoyance, "So you want to come to our house to eat and drink everything?"
Senior Brother Lin chuckled shamelessly, saying nonchalantly, "I've just been too busy! I haven't had any time!"
What's the situation with the Gu family right now?
Senior Brother Lin curled his lip, "Who would stay in the Gu family after you all left! They all ran away! And the fire truck you called didn't even stay inside for five minutes before it was driven away!"
Chu Yifan snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "A guilty conscience needs no accuser!"
"Didn't you send anyone in to investigate afterwards?"
Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Lin said with a slightly grave expression, "We went, but we didn't find any useful clues. The only problem is the forest behind the Gu family's residence. Something feels off. They've even set up a confusing array. We didn't dare get close, worried that we might alert them!"
"That's probably something Liu Zixing planted in the Gu family!"
"Yes, that's what we suspected too, so we've been keeping an eye on things, but we don't dare to have too much hope!"
Chu Yixi frowned and said with dissatisfaction, "It's been confirmed that this matter is Liu Zixing's doing. What are you planning to do about it?"
Senior Brother Lin sighed, looking helpless. "Right now, we're mainly focused on surveillance, since none of us know where Liu Zixing is!"
"Tang Bao said there should be a hidden formation in the place where Liu Zixing is, so she can't find him!"
"Well, so we can only wait. Continuing to monitor the Gu family should allow us to find Liu Zixing's whereabouts!"
Chu Yixi pushed up his glasses, a cold glint flashing in them. "They're definitely on guard. It'll be difficult to find out anything in a short time!"
"At least we've made some progress; it's better than being completely clueless!"
“I also investigated the family companies that opposed the Gu family before. They all suffered misfortunes for no apparent reason. It wasn’t just targeting them personally, but also their companies! This must be because Liu Zixing was helping the Gu family behind the scenes!”
"Yes, we found it too! We hadn't noticed it much before, but now we realize there are too many problems!"
Who would have thought that the Gu family's rise to power was due to Liu Zixing's use of evil magic?
And it's also because they do it very secretly that ordinary people wouldn't casually associate these things with mystical arts?
Especially someone like Chu Yiting, before recognizing Tang Bao and before truly witnessing Tang Bao's abilities, didn't believe in such a thing, so he couldn't have imagined it.
Senior Brother Lin gently patted Tang Bao's little head and said with great pride, "This time, we really owe it all to Tang Bao!"
If it weren't for Tang Bao, they wouldn't have discovered that the Gu family might be colluding with Liu Zixing.
Well, although they had some suspicions before, they didn't have any evidence.
But now, because of Tang Bao, they have found evidence and have a target, which has saved them a lot of energy and manpower and resources. They no longer need to search everywhere for information about Liu Zixing's partners.
After all, Liu Zixing has already cooperated with the Gu family in Jiangzhong City, so why would he cooperate with others?
From now on, all they need to do is keep an eye on the Gu family.
Tang Bao proudly raised her round little chin, "Of course, Tang Bao is the biggest contributor!"
"Yes, Tang Bao is a great contributor. I wonder how your senior brother plans to reward our great contributor?" Chu Yifan said with amusement.
Upon hearing about the reward, Tang Bao's big, bright, grape-like black eyes sparkled with excitement as she asked in her childish voice, "Senior Brother, is there a reward?"
Senior Brother Lin glanced speechlessly at the three Chu brothers who were watching the show. These three guys were deliberately messing with him!
However, he really dotes on Tang Bao. He gives all his treasures to his junior sister and doesn't even have his own son. He's a little embarrassed to offer him a reward.
Senior Brother Lin looked helpless. "I've given you all my good stuff, what good stuff could I possibly have left for you?"
Tang Bao tilted her little head, thinking of the treasures her senior brother had given her, and chuckled, "Yeah, senior brother gave Tang Bao so many treasures before!"
From childhood to adulthood, his master and fellow disciples have given him so many treasures!
Moreover, after returning home, her brothers gave her a lot of money and lots of treasures!
"That's right, all the treasures that my senior brother collected were given to you, but he didn't even give any to your junior nephew!"
Tang Bao nodded in agreement, excitedly spreading out her chubby little hands to show off, "Yes! The other junior disciples also gave Tang Bao lots of treasures!"
Some of these junior disciples were taken in by their senior brothers, while others were from other sects and were of lower seniority than her. They all gave her many gifts and brought her treasures every time they came.
To thank her fellow disciples, Tang Bao gave them many talismans she had drawn, and they all smiled broadly.
Of course, what Tang Bao didn't know was that the stacks of talismans she gave away were not much different from the treasures they gave away, and were even more valuable!
These younger generations knew of Tang Bao's generosity, which is why they would give Tang Bao treasures every time they came, in exchange for receiving Tang Bao's talismans.
Chu Yifan curled his lip and continued to retort, "Tsk, that was all in the past. Don't you collect as many now?"
Chu Yixi also chuckled and teased, "You, senior brother, are really stingy!"
Senior Brother Lin wasn't buying into the Chu family's act. Not only did he not want to fall into the trap, he also wanted to provoke the three Chu brothers.
"Tsk, it's just that we don't have anything good, and we're afraid that taking it out would only embarrass Tang Bao! In the future, if there are anything good, Senior Brother will naturally think of Junior Sister! He will definitely give it to Junior Sister first, right?"
