Chapter 37: Rescue

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ever since Gu Duo had talked to Liu Feng the last time, he realized that Liu Feng had been deliberately avoiding him.

Liu Feng did not reply to messages or pick up calls.

Looking at his phone, which did not have any notifications, Gu Duo threw his phone back into the drawer in frustration. His gaze was obscure.

“Third Young Master.”

The assistant knocked on the door and walked quickly to his side. He said in a low voice, “We’ve received news that there seems to be some movement on Second Master Gu’s side… Do you need us to send more people to protect you?”

Previously, Gu Duo had been staying in C City and most of the business of the Gu family was managed by Second Master Gu. However, after Gu Duo took back the business, not only did he purchase the property rights of?West Bay in large quantities, but he also took away the management rights of Kunda Entertainment. This naturally angered Second Master Gu.

There was only so much meat. The fiercer the wolf, the more it ate. This was the cruel law of nature.

It seemed that his good second brother could not hold back anymore and was planning to make a move?

Gu Duo narrowed his eyes coldly. He was going to teach the other party a lesson, but suddenly his eyelashes fluttered and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

This was the best opportunity to get close to his little sweetheart, right?

“Don’t worry about him.”

Gu Duo’s index finger lightly tapped on the table, and a dark light flickered in his eyes. “Get rid of all the bodyguards.”

“But, Third Young Master…”

The assistant was a little anxious. He did not understand why the Third Young Master deliberately exposed himself to danger, but Gu Duo only raised his hand to indicate that he had made up his mind.

The assistant was helpless. He could only follow the Third Young Master’s orders and dismiss all the people who were protecting him in the open and in the dark.

…

The next day, Liu Feng was ready to go to Jiang Luan’s laboratory to see the advancement of the hypermnesia project.

When Liu Feng passed by a remote alley, a gunshot suddenly caught her attention.

Liu Feng originally did not intend to meddle in other people’s business, but when she saw the figure running over with his arms covered, she was instantly speechless.

A large group of pursuers chased after Gu Duo, but he still smiled at her. “What a coincidence.”

Liu Feng secretly gritted her teeth. Indeed, she could not be cold to him in this situation. She pulled Gu Duo hard and turned around to run.

“What’s wrong with you?” Liu Feng asked while panting.

Gu duo’s arm was covered in blood. He smiled bitterly and asked, “Are you sure you want to discuss this with me while running for your life?”

Liu Feng took out a small silver bullet-like object from her bag and threw it at the group of people behind him.

The irritating gas and the thick white fog instantly swallowed the group of people. A few screams could be faintly heard.

“This is the C-4 gas bomb that I made. It’s enough to make them suffer.”

Liu Feng pulled Gu Duo to a safe place and panted slightly. Her gaze fell on Gu Duo’s injured arm and she frowned slightly. “If you’re fine, I’ll be leaving first.”

“Of course I’m not fine.”

Gu Duo stopped her. His pale and handsome face looked somewhat pitiful. “My head feels so dizzy and my body feels so cold. Did I lose too much blood and go into shock?”

Liu Feng looked at him speechlessly. Just as she was about to expose Gu Duo, she saw Gu Duo’s pale lips and her heart softened.

Liu Feng sighed and compromised. “Follow me.”

Everyone from the Jiang family had just left the house. Liu Feng brought Gu Duo back to the room without any hindrance. She opened the medicine box and skillfully took medicine for him.

Liu Feng saw that Gu Duo’s arm had a deep wound from the explosion of gunpowder. There was even some black powder on it.

Liu Feng frowned and used hydrogen peroxide to disinfect his arm. She only looked up when she heard a trembling gasping sound.

“Can you tell me now?”

“It’s my second brother.”

Gu Duo pursed his lips and his face seemed to be covered with a thick layer of bitterness. “You’re right. The wealthy families are too complicated. My second brother has never liked me since I was young. When I returned to Jing City this time, he thought that I would fight with him for the right of inheritance, so he deliberately targeted me.”

Gu Duo raised his eyes, and his dark pupils looked extremely pitiful. “The Gu family is now in great danger. Can I stay here with you?”

“No!”

Liu Feng rejected without thinking and said coldly, “Leave immediately after I finish applying the medicine on you. If you still don’t leave in ten minutes, I’ll immediately call the police.”

Liu Feng’s tone was resolute as if there was no room for turning back.

Gu Duo’s face fell, and he begged Liu Feng in a gentle tone, “I absolutely won’t disturb you. I can also cook for you, do experiments for you, and accompany you to relax…”

“More importantly, I can also be an antidote for you.”

The corners of Gu Duo’s mouth drooped, and his handsome face looked extremely pitiful. “I just need to stay here for a few days. I absolutely won’t cause you any trouble.”

However, if he stayed in the Jiang family, it would mean trouble.

Liu Feng was originally unwilling, but Gu Duo used all his strength and even refused to leave.. Liu Feng was exhausted physically and mentally, and in the end, she could only helplessly keep Gu Duo.
