Chapter 85 My younger brother is worried sick
The two men came over and seemed to be fine.
He Jing passed the chopsticks to them and the three of them started eating.
Gu Rong ate the meal provided by his elder brother, and after thinking about it, he felt that he should explain something for his brother.
"Avery's dad is the nominal dean here, and he and my dad are comrades-in-arms. Avery and my brother went to high school together, but we're not really close at all! She's the one who's been pestering me. If you ask my brother, he probably doesn't even know her name."
After Gu Rong finished speaking, he quietly observed He Jing's expression.
He Jing nodded indifferently, not knowing whether he believed it or not.
"Really? You don't believe it?"
"I believe it, but isn't this your brother's private matter?"
"What private matter?! My brother may not even remember her!" Gu Rong was a little anxious, his eyes wide open.
Song Feng stopped him helplessly, "Can't you see that Sister Xiaohe is teasing you?"
He Jing laughed out loud and smoothed the fur of the angry kitten. "If your brother and her really had something going on, she wouldn't have had that attitude just now."
"Huh?" Gu Rong didn't understand.
"You're yelling and making noise while you're injured and resting."
Gu Rong didn't understand what the connection was between the two. Hadn't Avery always been like this?
o_O?
The two sighed helplessly.
After dinner, the attending doctor rushed over, checked me out, and looked apologetic.
"I'm really sorry. Doctor Guan just came back from further training yesterday. I didn't expect her to be like this."
"It's okay, how are they?"
"I'm fine now. I can be discharged from the hospital. Please don't use your mental power for the next two days after you go back."
"OK."
After packing up their things, they decided to leave the hospital.
Before leaving, I went to see Xiao Wu. His vital signs were stable, but he had not yet woken up.
He was accompanied by several familiar-looking bodyguards.
The incident was so serious that not long after returning home, Gu Qidong and Shen Wanzhou rushed back.
The two people pulled them to look at it with anxious looks on their faces.
Shen Wanzhou: "Are you okay? Can you be discharged now? Don't you need to stay for two more days?"
Gu Qidong: "Where's Doctor Wen? Let him check again!"
"It's really okay~ I'm fine!" Gu Rong said helplessly.
"No, Uncle Gu, please ask Doctor Wen to come over."
Doctor Wen rushed over and examined the three people again. Only after confirming that there was no problem did the couple feel relieved.
In the evening, Uncle Gu brought out the nourishing soup that he had been cooking for the entire afternoon and watched the three of them finish it.

"Who ordered you to do this?"
"I don't understand what you are saying." As soon as the words were spoken, one of the insect's wings was plucked off.
“Ahhhhhh!”
The lights in the interrogation room were dim, and depression and a bloody smell hung over everyone's heart.
"Can't remember?" Gu Zheng supported his head with one hand and leaned back in the chair. His expression could not be seen clearly in the darkness.
"I...I don't know..."
"continue."
…
After an unknown amount of time, the two insects collapsed and spoke, "I'll tell you... I'll tell you!"
"Who is the mastermind behind this?"
"We discussed it among ourselves. When we heard the news of Her Highness Corinna's death, we were very sad and angry, so we wanted to take revenge on you." Hatred was revealed in Chong's dying eyes.
"How long have you been lurking? Who is the traitor?"
"Half a year... An insider? We didn't know. We received the mission and followed the instructions and got in smoothly."
"Heh, General Gu, not everyone in your Federation is of one mind..."
Gu Zheng ignored him and continued to ask, "Where did you get this information from?"
"What information? I don't know. I just want to get back at you. I heard you were on duty here, and I want you to see this with your own eyes...ah!"
"Where did you get the information?"
"...Three days ago at the black market, a man in black found us and said he could help us get revenge."
"He said your brother would go there that day. He gave us a potion, saying that if added to the environmental controller, it would cause a mental riot."
"What does that person look like?"
"I really don't know! We're bugs, we wouldn't dare show up even in the black market!"
"Just because you don't dare to show up doesn't mean you won't fight back, right? Speak!" Yang Ziang put one hand on his broken wing, his eyes vicious.
“I said it!! I said it!!”
"Both of them brought easy-to-use containers, but when they boarded the aircraft, one of them seemed to have a problem with his right hand."
…
Coming out of the interrogation room, Yang Ziang's face changed, "Captain..."
"Don't jump to conclusions without evidence."
"yes!"
Gu Zheng leaned against the window and lit a cigarette.
The sky was thick with smoke, and it was beginning to turn white in the distance.
"Go back and rest tonight. I'll leave this matter to you to investigate."
"yes!"
When Gu Zheng returned home, the whole manor was quiet.
When he reached the third floor, he paused.
He looked quietly at the pink cat bed in front of Hejing's door.
The forest cat was sleeping uneasily wrapped in a pink and white blanket.
As if sensing something, the kitten's ears twitched and it opened its eyes.
The aqua-blue cat's eyes were misty as if it had just woken up.
He looked up and meowed softly at Gu Zheng.
After a while, the door of the room opened.
Another pair of misty cat eyes appeared before his eyes.
"You're back? It's so late..."
"Well, waiting for me?"
"Hmm..." He Jing covered his mouth and yawned, "Have you eaten?"
"...No." Gu Zheng walked forward slowly. Bai Sen ran out at some point and rubbed against the two of them.
He Jing looked at the time. Oh my god, it was already past four o'clock. His brows furrowed slightly. "How about I make you a bowl of noodles?"
Gu Zheng shook his head. "No, go back and rest. Uncle Gu will be up in an hour and a half."
"It's okay, wait for me." He Jing said, then went back and quickly washed his face.
Gu Zheng leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.
He opened his eyes when he heard the door open, and a drop of water slid down the girl's bangs with the movement.
The two of them came to the restaurant quietly. He Jing turned on the light and took out two eggs and a handful of noodles from the refrigerator.
The water in the pot gradually boiled, and He Jing put the noodles in.
The lights were dim and the air was filled with smoke. The girl's soft long hair was draped behind her, swaying gently with her movements.
Gu Zheng watched in fascination, and soon a bowl of hot noodles was brought in front of him.
"It's time to eat~" The girl's eyes curved and her voice was soft.
Gu Zheng ate every bite seriously.
He Jing sat opposite him, holding up his face and looking at him.
"Are you scared?" Gu Zheng put down his chopsticks and looked at her steadily.
"It's okay. I watched the news. Is this incident serious?"
"Yes, it's Corinna's remnants."
He Jing took a moment to react before he remembered who Corinna was. A guess emerged, "Is she... coming for us?"
Gu Zheng paused and did not deny it.
"Who knew that you decided to go to the zoo on that day?"
He Jing frowned slightly and thought for a moment, "Uncle Gu, my uncle and aunt, Aunt Wu who cooked... they were all there at the time. As for the others, I don't know either."
"Okay, you still have classes during the day, go back and get some sleep."
He Jing nodded, Gu Zheng washed the dishes, and the two went upstairs together.
A dark shadow swayed slightly in the corner of the living room.
