He turned around and looked behind.

A young man with a shaven head, dressed in monk’s robes, lay in a pool of blood, his body twitching.

Beside him, there was a bloody dagger thrown on the ground.

It was Su Youchen, the son that was hidden by the Su family.

Tang Mochen kicked him hard on the side, “Daring to ambush, seeking death.”

Just when Gu Shiyan was asking a question, this guy suddenly jumped over from somewhere with a dagger.

It was his bad luck that Lu Miao happened to call Gu Shiyan.

Under normal circumstances, Gu Shiyan might not have dealt with him so harshly, but in order to quickly finish the job and take Lu Miao’s call, he acted without hesitation.

Gu Shi Yan glanced at him and said, “Have someone take care of his injuries and don’t let him die.”

Tang MO Chen nodded, his face serious as he asked, “What do we do next?”

Gu Shi Yan looked at him as if he were an idiot and said directly, “Prepare a private jet. I’m going back to Luo city.”

“Now? Bro, can vou check the time? It’s already so late!” Tang Mochen’s voice became high-pitched.

Thinking of Lu Miao’s call just now, he couldn’t help but roll his eyes again.

“Do you have to see her so urgently? Can’t you wait for one night?”

Gu Shi Yan replied, “That’s why you’re still single.” Tang MO Chen???

“F* *k, no need for such personal attacks!”

Why have he changed so drastically after getting married?

“What about Su Youchen?”

Gu Shi Yan said indifferently, “Bring him back with us and let the news spread that Su Youchen has appeared.”

No matter what the Su family’s intention was in hiding Su Youchen, his reappearance would catch them off guard.

Early the next morning, Lu Miao came downstairs and before she had a chance to order breakfast, she caught a whiff of a strong aroma coming from the kitchen.

Did Auntie Xiu come back?

She lifted her foot and turned towards the kitchen.

As soon as she entered, her head collided with a human wall, and the solid chest made her take two steps back.

“Careful, did I hurt you?”

Lu Miao raised her hand to cover her sore forehead and looked at the disheveled person in front of her. “No, why are you back?” Wasn’t this guy still overseas when he called last night?

How did he come back so quickly? “Yeah, I finished my work and caught a flight back.”

Gu Shiyan replied casually.

Her skin was exceptionally fair. With a slight bump, her forehead was already a little red. Gu Shiyan put down the things in his hand and went forward. He raised his hand and gently rubbed the red spot.”

His slightly cold fingertips pressed against her forehead. It was cool and surprisingly comfortable.

Lu Miao took a step back uncomfortably and avoided his hand.” It doesn’t hurt anymore.””

“I passed by the west alley. Their porridge is said to be very fresh. I specially brought some for you. Try it and see if you like it. “Gu Shiyan reached out to take another bowl.

West Alley? That celebrity porridge shop was in the south of the city. No matter if it was the airport or the high-speed rail, it was impossible to pass by there.

How did he pass by?

Just as Lu Miao was about to speak, she looked up and saw a large patch of red on the back of his hand. She turned to look at the counter and saw that the porridge in his bowl had decreased by quite a bit. It was obvious that she had spilled and scalded it when she bumped into him just now.

Frowning slightly, she pulled his hand over and looked at it. Then, she placed it under the tap and turned on the cold water.” You rinse it first. I’ll go find some burn medicine. Otherwise, it will get blisters later.”

She turned around and went outside to get the first-aid kit, taking out some ointment and applying it to his burns. “You probably clashed with the kitchen. I suggest you don’t enter the kitchen again in the future.”

Last time, he nearly destroyed her house, and now he got himself burned. If this happened again, he and this house would definitely have no chance of survival.

After driving him out of the kitchen, Lu Miao reheated the remaining food in the microwave.

When Gu Jinxi got up and left, he happened to run into Lu Yinan, so he snorted and rushed downstairs before him.

When she saw Gu Shiyan, her eyes instantly lit up, and she excitedly said, “Second Brother, you’re back!”

This was the first time he was so eager for his second brother to come home!

He immediately walked over, leaned in, and whispered into Gu Shiyan’s ear for a long time.

Gu Shiyan raised an eyebrow and looked calmly at Lu Yinan, who was following behind them. Then he reached out and grabbed Gu Jinxi’s collar, pulling him to a chair nearby.

Gu Jinxi pouted but had no choice but to sit harmoniously with Lu Yi Nan at the same dining table for breakfast.

After breakfast, with only the Gu brothers and Lu Yinan left at the table, the harmony that was present when Lu Miao was there vanished completely.

Gu Shiyan looked at Lu Yinan and said, “I don’t care what methods you used to make Lu Miao accept you, but you better not have any other motives.”

“She is my sister, and I don’t need Mr. Gu to remind me.” Lu Yinan coldly replied.

Gu Shiyan spoke in a detached manner, “Your Lu family has never acknowledged her.”

At the mention of the Lu family, Lu Yinan’s momentum weakened.

The Lu family indeed owed Lu Miao, and he couldn’t refute that.

“The Lu family is the Lu family, and I am me. No matter what the Lu family is like, she is my sister. With me around, I won’t let them hurt her again.” “Good, I hope it’s like that.” Gu Shiyan got up and was about to leave.

“Mr. Gu.” Lu Yi Nan stopped him.

“No matter what your purpose was in agreeing to the engagement with her, I hope that after your business is done, you can move out and voluntarily annul the engagement with her. If there’s a penalty for breaking the engagement, no matter how much, I’m willing to bear it.”

On the side, Gu Jinxi instantly jumped up in anger and said, “Lu Yinan, who do you think you are? Why do you think you can tell my second sister-in-law and second brother to end their engagement? Just because my second sister-in-law let you into the house doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want.”

Lu Yinan looked at Gu Shiyan and continued, “Miao Miao is still young, and she will meet many people in the future, experience a wider world. I hope she can freely choose her own life and the person she likes. Instead of being trapped in this inexplicable engagement.”

Gu Shiyan turned around and looked down at him, saying, “And how can you be sure that the person she chooses in the end won’t be me?”

Lu Yinan sneered, “You’re eight years older than her, and Miao Miao is just an ordinary high school student, far from the illustrious reputation you have outside. You have numerous women who try to get close to you all the time. Can you be sure that you can resist temptation and wait for her alone, choosing her in the end?”

He had seen plenty of those messy scandals and infidelities in prominent families, especially in top-tier families like the Gu family—lots of people and more troubles.

“I’m sure.” Gu Shiyan answered without hesitation.

Lu Yinan directly said, “Then give her the freedom to choose. Let her make her own decision. If, after living freely in her own way, she still chooses you in the end, I will have nothing to say and will wish you both happiness. But if she chooses someone else, I hope Mr. Gu will kindly let her go..”
