Lu Yi glared at him and helplessly pried his fingers apart.
"During the investigation, I inadvertently discovered that your Huo family had some serious problems, so I took care of them as a matter of course. You're welcome!"
He would never admit that he had misunderstood.
He almost lost his life trying to keep his promise to his brother.
Huo Jingxi wrapped his arms around his neck, planted a big kiss on his cheek, and laughed heartily.
"He truly is my good brother! Father always praises himself for his discerning eye, but I think it's just that our Huo family is blessed with good fortune!"
"If my father hadn't realized back then that he had to lie low and decisively severed ties with my eldest brother, using reverse psychology to force me to leave the Huo family, then fate would never have let me meet you!"
As memories of the past flooded his mind, his expression gradually darkened.
"That's so cheesy!"
Knowing that he wasn't wearing anything under his bathrobe, and that the two were pressed tightly together, Lu Yi felt extremely awkward.
She gave him a push and walked over to the other side of the sofa.
After Huo Jingxi's agitated heart calmed down a bit, Lu Yi sighed softly, "If Lao Ma knew your identity, he would definitely show it."
“I never doubted his professionalism, but I knew his character and temperament.”
“You used the Huo family as bait to get into this situation. No matter how much he tries to hide it, deep down he wants to protect the Huo family. This is very dangerous for him!”
Ever since learning that Huo Jingxi was a member of the international anti-drug organization, Black Owl, Lu Yi had been worried about Lao Ma.
This man is too rigid; he's not interested in anything except upholding justice.
Huo Jingxi is risking dragging the Huo family into a desperate situation by playing such a grand game domestically, and Lao Ma is certainly willing to be a pawn on the chessboard.
"He doesn't know."
Huo Jingxi swiped the mouse, casually scanning all the content Lu Yi had compiled, and his gaze towards Lu Yi instantly became complicated.
Their organization's thirst for talent is beyond imagination.
People like Lu Yi, who seem to be sensitive and talented in a certain area, are extremely rare in the entire organization.
He really wanted to speak up and express this meaning.
But I was also afraid of causing him unnecessary burden and anxiety.
"That would be wonderful! Thank you so much for your thoughtful consideration, Second Brother!"
Lu Yi smiled gratefully at him.
Old Ma was not related to him by blood, but he was a ray of light in his life during the lowest point of his life, shining through the shadows of the Lu family.
Selfishly speaking, I'd rather Lao Ma had a satisfactory job than have him risk his life to protect someone.
Everyone has their own cause and effect, and Lao Ma has done enough for him!
"Why thank me? I should thank you on behalf of the entire Huo family. If my dad knew about this, he would be so happy he wouldn't be able to sleep for days!"
Huo Jingxi untied his bathrobe, picked up the clean clothes next to him, and began to put them on.
They didn't care at all about the embarrassment Lu Yi felt when he turned his head away.
"Let's pay our respects to Grandpa Fan first, and then go to the Gu family. You only have a few days left before school starts, so come back to Fengcheng with me for a few days, and then I'll send you back!"
He quickly put on his prosthetic leg and tidied his hair in front of the full-length mirror.
He took a baseball cap off the shelf and casually put it on his head. "By the way, did Jiaojiao cause you any trouble?"
Lu Yi didn't understand what he meant by "causing trouble".
If we consider things like covering him with a blanket every night in the middle of the night and sleeping on the floor next to his bed, then Ruan Jiaojiao has caused a lot of trouble!
The snoring sounds were even more varied than my uncle's.
His lack of sleep is inextricably linked to Ruan Jiaojiao.
"Alright, let her come back to Fengcheng with us. When your school starts soon, let her accompany you!"
Seeing Lu Yi frown and unwilling to comment on her, Huo Jingxi pulled him downstairs.
Ruan Jiaojiao hid behind the door and only heard Huo Jingxi tell her to go back to Fengcheng. She naturally picked up her bag and followed behind the two of them.
"Second brother, third brother, Wang Da has been arrested, but he hasn't confessed a single word!"
Du Guanglong opened the car door, waited for the two to get in, and said with a worried expression.
"Whether he confesses or not is not up to him!"
Huo Jingxi's expression hardened. "Anyone who dares to stab the Huo family in the back will have to bear consequences they can't afford!"
Du Guanglong certainly knew that Huo Jingxi hated traitors the most!
He gripped the steering wheel tightly, his face sinister: "Don't worry, we've already given the instructions. This branch of the Wang family... that's it!"
Huo Jingxi scratched his cheek with his fingers, and his eyes, hidden behind his baseball cap, held a mystery.
He turned to look at Lu Yi, who had followed him into the car, and said, "Third brother, get out!"
Lu Yi was puzzled.
That person is acting like a dog one minute and a wolf the next.
Du Guanglong saw Huo Jingxi's worry in the rearview mirror and turned his head slightly.
"Third brother, although we haven't uncovered the real mastermind, they won't just sit idly by."
"I've also prepared a new car. You and Jiaojiao wait in this yard for a while until we take all those tails away before you set off!"
Lu Yi felt it was unnecessary.
This is Jiangzhou, where street surveillance covers almost the entire area.
He chuckled softly, "You guys are being too cautious."
“I’m going to the Fan family and the Gu family too. It wouldn’t be right for me not to go.”
Whether the Gu family goes or not is not important.
Fan Huijun is about to give birth, and it's one thing for him not to show up, but he even went to Fengcheng. What's going on?
Fan Shenglun rarely showed obvious emotions in front of him.
Daniel's death must have been incredibly painful for his elderly father.
He wanted to comfort Fan Shenglun in person, as his "son," at this moment when he had obtained a partial truth.
"You don't need to worry about that... Jiaojiao!"
Du Guanglong opened the car window and shouted at Ruan Jiaojiao, who was standing in the corridor playing on her phone.
