Chapter 22
After leaving Wang Wenhua's house, Du Jiajia asked, "What happened to their family?"
"I just have a guess. There might be something bad hidden in their house."
"Is it that bracelet?" Du Jiajia hurriedly grabbed Gu Yuan's hand, her tone anxious, "Should we tell her directly? Or, go back to find Feifei now? Sister An is not here, she is still at home."
Gu Yuan patted the back of her hand gently, "Jia Jia, do you believe me?"
This made Du Jiajia's heart jump. She realized something was wrong and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"I want to try it myself." Gu Yuan said, "I will stay near her house for the next few days. If anything happens, I will take care of it."
Du Jiajia shook her head: "No, this is too dangerous. What if something happens to you?"
"Do I have to rely on others all the time? I decided to do this because I was certain of what I could do."
"This... If Sister An knew about this, she would definitely be angry."
"But she didn't come back?"
"She's back, what should we do?" Du Jiajia shook her head and continued, "I can see that there are many things she doesn't allow. There are also standards for interfering in other people's affairs."
"But what if you do it without realizing it?"
Gu Yuan: "She won't hurt me."
"Are you so sure?" Du Jiajia said worriedly, "She is our friend and our squad leader, but she must have other identities. If she supervises..."
Gu Yuan interrupted her, "Wang Wenhua, do you want to help?"
"Tell Feifei to come along."
"Tell her, what if she doesn't let us help? Are we just going to watch Wang Wenhua and her family perish?"
Du Jiajia looked back at Wang Wenhua's family, then looked at Gu Yuan, and said, "Help."
"Okay." Gu Yuan smiled, "You have to keep this a secret when you go back."
Du Jiajia nodded.
When I walked back home and opened the door, I was greeted by the aroma of meat. Feifei was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed, eating an apple.
Du Jiajia: "It smells so good."
Gu Yuan walked in behind her, closed the door, and asked, "What did you do?"
Feifei waited until both of them came in before slowly asking, "Where did you go? You're back so late."
Du Jiajia paused, "Didn't I say I'd go to the amusement park with my classmates today?"
Feifei: "We went to the amusement park. Where did you go after that?"
Du Jiajia's voice weakened a bit, and she said, "I went to a classmate's house. What happened?"
Feifei asked, "What happened?"
Gu Yuan: "No."
Feifei looked at Du Jiajia, who was obviously not feeling well, and asked again, "Really?"
"Du Jiajia, go ahead."
Du Jiajia forced a smile. Gu Yuan quietly reached out and patted her on the back. She took a deep breath, as if she was holding back her energy. "If there's no, then there's no. Are you annoying me for asking so many questions?"
"I just played at my friend's house for a little longer, and you're asking so many questions, like you're interrogating a criminal."
"I saw you were obviously not feeling well, so I asked. Why are you making so much noise?" Feifei threw the apple core into the trash can, stood up and walked to the kitchen. "I stewed some pork ribs. Do you want to eat now?"
Du Jiajia quickly said: "Eat, we are starving."
Feifei: "You're back so late, are you hungry? I think you're not hungry enough."
After Du Jiajia and Feifei entered the kitchen, she completely lost her energy. Gu Yuan smiled and gave her a small applause.
Du Jiajia leaned closer and wanted to speak, but Gu Yuan shook his head slightly, so she held her words back.
At the dinner table, the two were busy gnawing on spareribs. Gu Yuan suddenly raised his eyes to look at Feifei on the sofa and said, "Tomorrow, you don't have to save any food for me at noon.
Feifei didn't turn around to look at the TV and asked, "What do you want to do behind my back?"
Du Jiajia choked and spat out a mouthful of rice. Feifei frowned, "Eat slowly. If you choke to death, I won't save you."
"No... no, you save me."
Feifei picked up the kettle on the coffee table and walked over to her, "Drink some water."
"……Thanks."
Feifei: "You're welcome. I'm afraid you'll choke to death and your mother will come to our house."
"Tsk~~"
Feifei asked Gu Yuan, "What are you going to do tomorrow?"
Gu Yuan: "Go to a library and read some books."
"Whatever you want, go home at ten o'clock in the evening."
Gu Yuan: "Okay."
Feifei turned around and said, "After you finish eating, wash the dishes. I'm leaving."
Du Jiajia: "Aren't you going to sleep here?"
"You don't have enough beds, and I don't want to join in the fun." Feifei thought she was still scared, so she smiled and added, "I'm in the neighborhood. If anything happens, just shout at the tree."
Du Jiajia: "Won't you catch a cold sleeping in a tree?"
Feifei laughed and asked, "Do you think I'll catch a cold?"
Du Jiajia curled her lips. "If you can't do it, then don't do it. What's there to brag about?"
Feifei curled her lips and turned away. Du Jiajia immediately leaned over to Gu Yuan and asked in a low voice, "You've concealed it now?"
Gu Yuan quickly pulled her back and lowered his voice: "Jia Jia, stop talking."
"She's gone..."
Gu Yuan frowned slightly, "To be on the safe side, we can't mention it to our family. I always feel like someone is watching us."
Gu Yuan’s intuition was correct. At this moment, Lin An, who was far away in the star field, was watching their every move.
But she was recovering from her injuries right now, so she could only hold it in for now and ask again after she recovered.
At Wang Wenhua's house, Wang Zhengfang finished his meal and lay down on the sofa. Dong Yun was clearing the table, but Wang Wenhua did not go back to his room immediately as usual.
She moved a chair and sat next to Wang Zhengfang, neither playing with her cell phone nor watching TV.
Wang Zhengfang noticed something was wrong with her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wang Wenhua: "It's okay, I was scared by the dog today."
"Whose dog is this? Tell Dad." Wang Zhengfang sat up from the sofa. "I'll go find someone."
Wang Wenhua: "It's not from our neighborhood, it's... a stray dog near the playground."
"Dad will buy you a knife. If you encounter danger..."
Before Wang Zhengfang finished speaking, Dong Yun laughed and interrupted, "The dog doesn't know what the knife is for. You can drive it away with a stick."
"I haven't finished yet, why are you so anxious?" Wang Zhengfang continued, "Also, daughter, this time we met a dog, but what if we meet a bad guy next time? Do you have any foresight?"
Dong Yun: "Then keep talking, keep talking."
"You've already finished speaking, what can I say? You're the worst at interrupting people before they've even finished speaking."
Wang Wenhua: "You two stop arguing and don't bother anyone else. I'll buy it myself."
She got up and walked upstairs quickly. Wang Zhengfang asked, "Did you make your daughter angry?"
Dong Yun: "It's not just me who caused this."
Wang Zhengfang: "If you don't compete with me for everything, then nothing will happen."
She turned and left without saying another word. She was obviously angry, but Wang Zhengfang didn't care and lay back on the sofa.
The next day was a nice day with sunshine. Wang Zhengfang woke up and looked out. Dong Yun should have gone to buy vegetables and his daughter should have gone to school.
He is the only one left at home, feeling comfortable.
He changed into his pajamas and walked out slowly, ready to find someone to play chess with.
While waiting for the red light, all the cars on the road stopped. He crossed the road, not unaware that there was a car speeding in the distance, which had already run through several red lights.
Gu Yuan heard it and was about to pull someone in when a person waving a folding fan suddenly appeared in front of her.
Gu Yuan: "Who are you?"
Shen Chenzhou laughed: "You are just a little kid, and you like to meddle in other people's business so much."
Gu Yuan took a step to the left, and Shen Chenzhou also took a step to the left with a smile. He said, "I can't let you ruin other people's good things."
Gu Yuan snorted coldly and attacked immediately, but Shen Chenzhou only blocked her and did not attack her. He said slowly: "It is not fair to attack a child."
"I advise you to stop. Your master is still recovering from his injuries. Why do this?"
Gu Yuan: "She is not."
Shen Chenzhou smiled, with interest in her eyes. Interesting, interesting. Did the judge guess that this child hated her?
What is the source of this hatred?
Things became very interesting. The god who had just entered the human world was moved, but the object of his affection was not love for her, but hatred for her.
Shen Chenzhou moved the folding fan in his hand, and Gu Yuan was suddenly fixed in place and unable to move. He then slowly circled around her, and Gu Yuan looked at him coldly.
Shen Chenzhou took the folding fan and tapped her head gently, “If it weren’t for the fact that asking your heart would cause too much harm to people, I really want to see what you are hiding in your heart.”
Gu Yuan: “Heh.”
Shen Chenzhou: “Look, she just came here in a hurry after I froze you for a while.”
Lin An slowly emerged, his voice cold and clear: "Senior, don't you feel it's beneath you to bully a child?"
Shen Chenzhou chuckled: “I didn’t bully her, it was this little guy who was going to cause trouble for my people.”
Lin An said calmly: "A soul that has been wandering for hundreds of years, without the help of the seniors, she would not have the energy to do evil for so long."
Shen Chenzhou looked back at Gu Yuan, and shook her folding fan gently. The restraints on her body were immediately released, and Gu Yuan quickly walked to Lin An's side.
"I'll give it back to you after protecting her like this."
Lin An: "Thank you, senior."
Shen Chenzhou looked at Gu Yuan deeply, a meaningful arc appeared at the corner of his lips, and his figure disappeared on the spot.
After Shen Chenzhou left, Lin An looked at the people beside him and asked, "Are you okay?"
Gu Yuan: "I'm fine."
After confirming that she was really okay, Lin An's tone suddenly turned cold and he asked in a cold voice: "Gu Yuan, tell me what is most important?"
"……I"
"That's good to know."
Lin Mo: "If you can't ensure that everything is safe, don't go. Saving your life is the most important thing."
"But I don't want to be timid."
"What do you want?"
Gu Yuan reached out and grabbed Lin An's clothes, whispering, "Save him."
Lin An: "You go."
Gu Yuan: "What about you?"
Lin An: "Behind you."
