Lu Yi knew that Lu Baoyun was genuinely worried about him this time.
Although she couldn't bring herself to call her "Fourth Sister," she still offered her a gentle word of comfort.
Lu Baoyun's nose stung, and she cried even harder.
"Oh dear, Second Sister-in-law, why are you always crying? Lu Yi is just injured, he's not dead!"
"Even if he really dies, the first one to cry will be Sister Shiyue, the second will be me, the third will be Sister Jiaojiao, the fourth will be my sister-in-law, and you'll be the fifth, sixth, seventh, or eighth one!"
Gu Keke counted on her fingers, as if reciting a familiar story.
She innocently waved in front of the camera.
"Lu Yi, you said that as long as you don't die, you will eventually be moved by me. You have to keep your word."
Lu Yi was both amused and exasperated. "When did I say that?"
Gu Keke's eyes sparkled. "In my dream. I dreamt about you telling me that last night."
"Coco, stop fooling around!"
Gu Huainan pushed her aside, "Go and help Bao Yun wash her face, and do her makeup while you're at it. You're both representing the Gu family today, don't you understand?"
After the two men left, the two Gu brothers looked extremely solemn.
Gu Huaibei said, "Lu Yi, the Huo family took responsibility for everything. You almost lost your life, but our Gu family was saved. I will remember this kindness."
The moment he heard that Lu Yi was injured, the hairs on the back of his head stood on end.
If it weren't for the child's cries pulling him back to reality, he would have thought he had entered a strange world.
Are those people crazy?
If you need money or people, the Gu family has it, the Fan family has it, the Huo family has it, and even if it's difficult for the Lu family or the Lin family, he can understand. So why target Lu Yi specifically?
"Hey, brother, why are you saying all this..."
Gu Huainan was speaking when he heard faint voices talking, so he sent Gu Huaibei away, saying, "Brother, go and see if any more guests have arrived?"
Today, the Gu and Fan families organized a celebratory banquet.
It's almost as big as the coming-of-age ceremony the Fan family held for Lu Yi.
As friends and relatives came to offer their congratulations, Gu Huaibei and Fan Huijun had no choice but to show up.
As soon as the door closed, Gu Huainan lowered his voice.
"Jiaojiao has disappeared? Not a single clue?"
Lu Yi shook his head. "I will go find her, but I need time to prepare..."
A strong body and adequate equipment are both indispensable.
Gu Huainan grinned, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
"I knew you wouldn't give up easily. When do you plan to set off?"
Lu Yi said, "Five days. If we're fast enough, three days."
...
Lu Baofei frowned, her anger burning, as she looked at the message that popped up on the computer screen.
"If ten people work together, and one of them runs away, eight die, and one is left half-dead... how dare you contact me?"
