He felt a sense of familiarity towards him, but now he was both paralyzed and only seven or eight years old, which didn’t seem like the situation that person should be in.
Even if he was out of his mind and decided to reincarnate, it was highly unlikely that he would make himself disabled.
He needed to verify whether this paralyzed child named Lu Zhanyu was related to that person at all!
He felt his heart, which had been dormant for a long while, begin to throb.
It was as if new blood was flowing in, making him restless.
###
It was already nine o’clock at night when Lu Zhanyu returned home from Susu’s place.
Not only had he accompanied Susu in doing the handicraft assignment from school, but he had also enjoyed dinner and supper with the Qin family.
Only when Susu was ready to wash up and go to bed did he leave.
From the Qin family’s gate to the Lu family’s gate, the distance was just two to three hundred meters.
After just a few steps, rustling noises came from the green belts on both sides of the road.
The butler stopped abruptly.
"What’s wrong?" Lu Zhanyu asked.
"Nothing much, it might just delay your return by three to five minutes," the butler answered with a smile on his round face and a casual tone.
Lu Zhanyu frowned slightly; he understood the hidden meaning in the butler’s words.
But of late, things seemed to have become a bit too turbulent.
Indeed, right after the butler finished speaking, a dozen or so men wearing masks and caps appeared.
The butler remained calm and took up a position firmly by Lu Zhanyu’s side.
These men were also well-trained; without wasting any words, they charged forward, heading straight for Lu Zhanyu.
The butler casually raised his hand and sent one man flying with a punch.
Then, with a kick, he knocked away another who was sneaking up from behind.
Despite appearing to be an overweight middle-aged man whose movements weren’t very agile, he was exceptionally nimble when it came to fighting.
Without any unnecessary movements, each of his strikes hit vital points, inflicting severe blows on his opponents.
After the skirmish, all dozen or so men had taken a beating from the butler to some degree.
Five minutes later, they stopped simultaneously.
Then they retreated swiftly and decisively.
In just ten seconds, all was quiet again.
The butler didn’t chase after them; his most important task was to protect Lu Zhanyu, not to capture people.
The butler felt that something was off: "They’re not ordinary thugs, gangsters, or kidnappers, they’re more like the people my apprentice had encountered before."
During Susu’s trip to the countryside, He Beimu had also fought a group of well-trained individuals, very similar to this encounter.
At the entrance to the residential area, there was a Rolls-Royce Phantom parked on a small path.
The car was hidden in the shade of the well-maintained greenery surrounding the neighborhood; one wouldn’t notice it unless they paid close attention.
The group that had just been repelled by the butler came up to the car.
The men stood straight and tense.
The person nearest to the car door was Achou.
"Boss, we did not complete the mission within the given time."
Unlike the last operation, this time the boss had only given them five minutes.
If they couldn’t handle it within five minutes, they were to retreat immediately without delay.
Achou hung his head, not daring to look directly into Tantai Ming’s eyes inside the car.
He was terrified because this was their third failure recently.
There’s a limit to everything, and repeated failures were undoubtedly challenging their boss’s patience. View the correct content at f.reewebn.ovel.co\m
"You can’t even deal with a little boy in a wheelchair?" Tantai Ming’s voice was bone-chillingly cold.
