Seeing them retreat far away, the Gu family members admired their eldest brother’s eloquence even more. After Gu Lin returned, they praised him greatly.

Gu Teng noticed that his brother’s expression was very serious and asked, “Big Brother, is there anything difficult?”

Gu Lin told everyone what the bald sorcerer had said. Cheng Xi said worriedly, “What are they doing? Are they threatening me with Lily?”

Gu Lin sighed. “They don’t know that we’ve found out about Lily, so they want to use this matter to negotiate with you and see if they can save Devon. Of course, they don’t have a deep friendship with Devon. They’re just worried that Devon will expose them.”

“About the murder?” Gu Tang asked.

Gu Lin was a little surprised. “How did you know?”

Xiao Jing patted Yunbao’s back and replied, “Just now, Yunbao saw resentment on that bald sorcerer. It’s the resentment of many people.”

This was also what made Gu Lin angry. “l heard those sorcerers talking about the altar and the bones of the sacrifice. The child Cheng Xi mentioned should be their sacrifice, so Country Y investigated the sale of children by Devon. It seems that everyone in their group committed the crime.”

It was terrifying to hear that they would sacrifice a child’s life. the Gu family’s people had not imagined that these people could do such a thing, not to mention that it was not just a child.

“It’s useless for them to tell me. I won’t speak up for that beast.” Cheng Xi snorted.

Gu Lin did not think so. He said, “l suggest that Cheng Xi still meet him. In order to figure out what they are doing, we might be able to save some children who have yet to become sacrifices.”

Cheng Xi was originally only immersed in her emotions. When she heard Gu

Lin’s words, she reacted. After thinking for a while, she nodded and said, “Eldest Young Master is right. If I can save some children, it will be a good thing. If I can save them but don’t, I will regret it for the rest of my life.”

Seeing Cheng Xi agree to Gu Lin’s request, he smiled. He already knew that Gu Peng liked Cheng Xi. He did not want to interfere in his brother’s relationship, but he also hoped that his future sister-in-law would be a kind person. Cheng Xi’s decision made him feel that his brother had not loved the wrong person.

After Cheng Xi agreed, Gu Lin asked the servant to tell the bald sorcerer that the two sides had agreed on a place to meet.

The bald sorcerer made a request. “l hope Miss Cheng Xi can bring Lily along. This is also related to her.”

Cheng Xi did not want to agree to this unreasonable request at all, but Yunbao nodded and said, “Auntie Cheng, just agree. I’ll disguise myself as Sister Lily and follow you. This way, I won’t be afraid of what that baldie will do.”

It was indeed dangerous to meet a sorcerer alone. It was best to have a witch by their side. Yunbao’s suggestion was accepted by everyone.

The servant continued to pass the message. The bald wizard was very happy to get the answer he wanted. After telling the other wizards, everyone left in satisfaction.

Lily felt bad that Yunbao had to pretend to be her again. She said, “l should be the one protecting Mommy, but you have to take risks every time.”

Yunbao comforted her, “Sister Lily still needs to recuperate and can’t go. When you completely recover, you can go out. At that time, Auntie Cheng will take you shopping and go to the amusement park.”

Hearing Yunbao’s description, Lily was happy. She secretly vowed to cultivate and recuperate as soon as possible so that she could protect Yunbao.

The meeting place was at a clubhouse. It was a place where many big shots discussed matters. The confidentiality was second to none in the capital.

Cheng Xi held Yunbao’s hand and walked into the private room. The bald wizard quickly pretended to be loving and said to Lily, “Lily, come to uncle.

Uncle has prepared a gift for you.”

Because the bald sorcerer was speaking in Country Ys language, Yunbao did not understand a word. She subconsciously hid behind Cheng Xi, but this move made the bald sorcerer lower his guard.

A housewife who had not worked for five years, a little girl who had been abused since she was born and had not gone to school, this combination was the easiest to deceive in the eyes of the bald wizard.

The sorcerer let out a long sigh and said, “Miss Cheng, I called you here because of Lily’s background. You probably don’t know what Devon has done, right?”

Cheng Xi hugged Yunbao in her arms and pretended to be very nervous. “Lily is the child I gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy.. How can there be a problem with her background? Are you slandering me?”
