When Gu Chen brought Su Xiaowu back to the villa, it was already past midnight.
"Little master, this is some delicious treat that the little dumpling next door brought back for you from shopping today. She also said that she will make you even more delicious treats in the future to repay you!"
When Qiu Shun placed the things that Xiao Ruanruan had brought for Gu Chen in front of him, Gu Chen could no longer suppress the upward curve of his lips.
"The little girl is quite kind-hearted."
Gu Chen sat at the dining table, eating the cold rabbit with elegant movements, while Shan Heng stood respectfully in front of him.
"Young master, Yan Li injected the Su family boy with the latest type of neuromodulation drug. If the entire dose of that injection is administered, it will be enough to completely control the Su family boy, both physically and mentally!"
Su Yiqing, who had come to demand her husband's return, heard these words as soon as she entered the door, and her heart clenched instantly.
The veins on his clenched fists stood out.
Gu Chen glanced at him, then his gaze fell on Shan Heng. "Is one night enough?"
Shan Heng was taken aback for a moment, then saw Qiu Shun beside him constantly giving him meaningful glances. He quickly replied, "Enough, young master, don't worry. I will definitely remove all the drugs from his body tonight."
"Hmm!" Gu Chen responded casually, then turned to invite Su Yiqing, "Xiao Ruanruan bought this for me, do you want to eat together?"
Su Yiqing gritted his teeth secretly, suspecting that Gu Chen was showing off to him.
"Why did you let Yan Li go?" Su Yiqing sat down and asked in a calm voice with a hint of suppressed emotion.
Gu Chen looked up and glanced at him. "Let him go back and report."
Su Yiqing frowned.
Gu Chen continued, "I plan to help you, so you don't need to follow your original plan to take down the henchmen in Rongcheng one by one. We can go all out and wipe them out in one fell swoop!"
To avoid any unforeseen complications!
Su Yiqing gently tapped the table with her long, slender fingers. "You're quite confident, aren't you? Do you know what the consequences will be if you go too far with your actions?"
"We're all doomed! You're all alone, but I still have family."
A cold light flashed deep in Gu Chen's eyes, but after chewing a piece of cold rabbit, he felt relieved. "I'm not alone. I have people to protect. Otherwise, I wouldn't have helped you."
His words were clear enough.
Su Yiqing took a deep breath, his eyes flickering with light and shadow. After a moment of silence, he spoke again, "My third brother said their latest project is researching a time machine, and that the technology behind those toy robots you gave Ruan Ruan is something even their top-tier laboratories can't achieve..."
Gu Chen raised his deep eyes to look at Su Yiqing, and slightly curled his lips, "Su Yifan's suspicion is correct. You can also tell Ruan Ruan about this."
For the first time, a look of shock appeared on Su Yiqing's face, and for a moment, his breathing became disordered.
"Since you came back from the future, why would the Gu family still..." Su Yiqing asked in confusion.
“Even if I came back from the future, I can’t change everything,” Gu Chen said calmly.
Furthermore, there are some things that Liang doesn't want to change.
At the same time, he glanced at Su Yiqing and said, "Ask me anything else you want to ask."
Su Yiqing's expression turned even more serious. "Why do you like Ruan Ruan?"
"Don't worry, whether now or in the future, I will not do anything to make Ruan Ruan unhappy, nor will I force her to do anything. She is my only light."
Gu Chen didn't tell Su Yiqing that he had traveled back in time for Ruan Ruan's sake. Since Ruan Ruan chose to keep it a secret from Su Yiqing and the others, he chose to respect her decision.
Su Yiqing breathed a slight sigh of relief. Gu Chen was too powerful, so powerful that he was worried that if Gu Chen wanted to do something to Ruan Ruan, he might not be strong enough to protect her.
“Su Xiaowu…” Su Yiqing paused for a moment before saying, “I’ll leave it to you.”
After saying that, he left Gu Chen's house.
As the sky began to lighten and the first rays of sunlight pierced through the thick clouds, the little dumpling opened its large, bright eyes and sat up abruptly.
With her chubby little hands patting her forehead, how did she fall asleep?
Did the older brother and Gu Chen manage to save the younger brother?
The little dumpling glanced at her older sister, Xixi, who was still sleeping soundly beside her, and then stretched her little neck to look at her older brother, Su Lei, who was sleeping on the floor.
But upon closer inspection, they saw that the fourth brother was lying sprawled on the ground, with one of his legs draped over Su Lei's leg.
Meanwhile, Su Lei's older brother was sleeping properly against the foot of the bed, his brows tightly furrowed even in his sleep.
The little dumpling sighed helplessly; this fourth brother was really a handful.
She slid off the bed with her little hands and feet, walked barefoot to the side where her two older brothers were sleeping on the floor, and huffed and puffed as she lifted Su Yan's thick thigh and moved it off Su Lei's body.
But as soon as she moved, Su Lei opened his eyes warily.
He breathed a sigh of relief after recognizing the little dumpling. "Little Softie, why are you up so early?"
Little Ruanruan smiled sweetly, revealing three tiny teeth. "Ruanruan wanted to go see if her older brother and Gu Chen had managed to save her younger brother, so she got up early."
"Your brother will go with you."
As Su Lei spoke, he quietly got up, took the little dumpling's hand, and tiptoed out of the room.
At this time, the servants in the villa had already begun to get busy.
Little Ruanruan wiggled her little feet and ran up to Li Chang. "Uncle Li, are big brother and little brother back?"
Looking at Xiao Ruanruan, Li Chang's expression softened involuntarily. "Miss, the eldest young master has returned and should be in the study right now. The young master is also alright; he was rescued by young master Gu Chen next door and is still there."
Hearing that her two older brothers were alright, Xiao Ruanruan finally felt relieved.
She turned around and ran upstairs, saying, "Ruanruan, go check on your big brother first."
Su Yiqing was reviewing the information he had collected about Rongcheng. If, as Gu Chen suggested, they were to wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop, he would have to come up with a new plan.
But it must be said that this is indeed better than his previous plan to defeat them one by one.
While taking them down one by one might relieve some pressure, if they become aware of it, they could launch a fierce counterattack at any time, which could lead to unforeseen complications.
Little Ruanruan tiptoed and gently knocked on the door.
When Su Yiqing heard the knocking, she knew it was Xiao Ruanruan, and her previously serious expression instantly softened.
I shut down the computer, opened the door, reached out and scooped up the little cuddly girl, holding her in my arms.
*Smack!*
A soft, sweet kiss, like cherry blossom petals, landed on Su Yiqing's face. She smiled sweetly and said, "Big brother, Uncle Li said that little brother is still with Brother Gu Chen. Let's go pick him up and take him home!"
