Fu Zhiyan's lips curled up slightly. He tilted his head and said sincerely, "I just thoughtfully shared Zhou Huai's location with him so that he wouldn't have to travel for too long in vain, and Zhou Huai would already be home."
Lu An'an: "..."
It has to be you; no one else is as considerate as you.
Fu Zhiyan smiled, revealing her dimples: "Thank you for the compliment, An'an."
Lu An'an was startled, realizing that she had forgotten to block her inner voice again, and hurriedly and frantically shut down the Heart Acupoint Line.
[Damn it! I forgot again that they can hear my thoughts. This time I specifically turned off the mind connection, so they shouldn't be able to hear me, right?]
Lu An'an cautiously probed.
[Big brother?]
Lu Wenjing's gaze remained fixed on the monitor screen, ignoring everything.
Lu An'an then tested Lu Yanli and Lu Xunran.
Second brother, third brother?
Her response was still a silent atmosphere and the focused expressions of the two people.
Lu An'an felt half relieved and turned to test Fu Zhiyan.
[The main villain? Fu Zhiyan? Ayan?]
Fu Zhiyan looked at Lu An'an, and under her expectant gaze, he slowly approached, stopping beside her ear, and softly said in a deep and magnetic voice, "I'm here, baby."
Lu An'an: "!!!"
【No way, how can you still hear that?! Master's skills aren't up to par either!!!】
Lu An'an felt a renewed sense of relief.
Fu Zhiyan lowered his head and smiled, gently patting Lu An'an's soft head without saying a word.
Perhaps I've passed his test?
When Lu An'an heard Fu Zhiyan's voice suddenly ring in her mind, her eyes widened in disbelief.
【I...I heard what you were thinking?!】
Upon hearing this, Fu Zhiyan's expression faltered slightly.
"Did you...hear that?"
Lu An'an nodded blankly.
I heard it clearly.
Fu Zhiyan blinked and met Lu An'an's eyes, both of them looking completely bewildered.
Just as the atmosphere between the two was subtle and ambiguous, a sour voice broke their eye contact.
"I'm telling you, you two should also worry about Lu Xunran's life. He's hanging by a thread right now!"
Upon hearing this, Lu An'an's cheeks flushed slightly. She awkwardly looked away and listened to Lu Yanli's deliberately drawn-out, slightly teasing words, straightening her chest to refute him.
"What life-or-death crisis! It's all on Zhou Huai now, and you're still criticizing me! Why didn't you pay attention to Gu Tingyan on the show!"
Lu Yanli's ears turned red, and he raised his voice somewhat uncomfortably, trying to hide his panic: "Sister, what nonsense are you talking about! I have nothing to do with him, we're mortal enemies! Besides! I'm straight!"
Upon hearing this, Lu An'an, Lu Wenjing, Lu Xunran, and Fu Zhiyan all focused their gazes on Lu Yanli, their eyes filled with amusement and inquiry.
Lu Wenjing asked indifferently, "It's alright?"
Lu Xunran raised an eyebrow: "Mortal enemy?"
Lu An'an smiled lewdly: "Oh~ a straight man~"
Fu Zhiyan casually added the fatal blow: "Yeah, Gu Tingyan snuggled into my arms and then laughed like a worthless straight man."
Lu Yanli: "..."
No, are they crazy?!
He blushed and tried to argue, but the four ignored him and focused intently on the surveillance footage again.
At the hospital entrance, the man came out of the hospital and immediately saw Zhou Huai getting into a car and leaving.
The man's expression hardened, he pulled out a knife from his pocket, and rushed towards Zhou Huai in a few strides, shoving the terrified Zhou Huai into the car.
He then abruptly opened the driver's side door, threatened the driver to get out, got in himself, and drove away from the hospital at high speed.
Inside the ward, the five people stared intently at the car on the monitor screen as it drove away and disappeared from sight, their expressions gradually becoming serious.
Lu Xunran frowned: "So... his plan to frame me was discovered, and he escaped with Zhou Huai?"
Lu Yanli rolled his eyes: "Use your brain, you brute. If he really wanted to run away, he could have just left with Zhou Huai in a car. Why go through all that trouble, forcing the driver out and driving himself?"
Lu Wenjing leaned back on the sofa and said in a deep voice, "He probably wants to find a place to settle accounts with Zhou Huai."
Lu An'an nodded, her expression grave: "He originally intended to kidnap Third Brother and then sever his tendons through a live broadcast. Now that it's Zhou Huai, I'm afraid his plan won't change, and Zhou Huai's fate probably won't be much better."
Lu Wenjing keenly noticed the fleeting hesitation in Lu An'an's eyes and asked, "An'an, is there any other problem?"
Lu An'an gently bit her lip and said, "When I came up, I saw that Pei Sheng had been discharged from the hospital. Pei Sheng must have set up the whole thing with Third Brother. Logically speaking, if he saw me, Big Brother, and those twenty bodyguards at the hospital entrance, he should have changed his plans. But why was Zhou Huai taken away?"
A sense of unease welled up inside her.
[Did Pei Sheng abruptly halt his plot against his third brother because he was about to target someone else?]
Fu Zhiyan gently squeezed Lu An'an's fingers to comfort her and then made an encrypted call with her.
"An'an, don't worry. I've already contacted Grandpa Jin and Jin Yan to protect the Lu family. They'll let us know if anything happens."
Lu An'an felt a weight lift from her heart.
【good. 】
Fu Zhiyan gently stroked Lu An'an's slender fingers, a faint trace of worry inadvertently flashing across his eyes.
He looked at Lu An'an with a deep and resolute gaze.
He would never let An'an disappear from his world.
