Chapter 154: Be Careful Not to Get Beaten by Your Sister
Gu Yu really didn’t know what to say to this clever younger brother-in-law. If he was even slightly careless and let something slip, this kid would guess it correctly! It would be better if he used this intelligence for his studies, instead of causing trouble now!
“I guessed it right! I felt something was off just now. After all, with my sister’s personality, how could she be so concerned about catching the monster murderer? There must be a reason! And when I said I would go with you, brother-in-law, you said that, which clearly means I am the reason!”
“As for why it’s me, it’s definitely because the monster murderer wants to deal with our family, and you and my sister are tough nuts to crack. But I’m different; I’m just a ten-year-old kid. Killing me would be very easy… So, by actively acting as bait, you can quickly lure out the killer hidden in the shadows and also prevent others from being implicated and killed!”
“However, this is too dangerous, and brother-in-law, you definitely won’t let me do it, and my sister won’t agree either. But you know my personality, I won’t stand by and do nothing!”
“What do you say, brother-in-law, speak up!”
Seeing that Gu Yu stopped talking, Gu Qingheng felt that his guess was very accurate. While he was speaking, his eyes were always looking at Gu Yu. Seeing Gu Yu’s expression getting worse and worse, Gu Qingheng finally confirmed that it was indeed like this! As long as he acted as bait, this case could be quickly concluded and the monster murderer caught… Although Gu Qingheng was afraid of dying from a slight mistake, he was very confident in Gu Yu and felt that as long as Gu Yu was by his side, nothing would happen!
It had to be said that although Gu Qingheng always bickered with Gu Yu, he trusted Gu Yu very much! Even with Mengyao Gu, he had some uncertainty, but with Gu Yu, he had a hundred percent trust. It wasn’t that Gu Qingheng lacked confidence in his sister, but because Gu Yu, from the beginning, had never considered any trouble or difficulty placed before him as a problem, and could always resolve them easily and leisurely, which made Gu Qingheng feel that there was no trouble his brother-in-law couldn’t handle!
Just like this monster murderer, although he seemed very fierce, he was no match for Gu Yu at all. He could only hide like a mouse in Lian Town, which made him impossible to find…
“You’ve said everything, what else can I say… However, don’t think about getting involved in this case. While I can guarantee my own safety when the other party is manipulating the monster to attack, I cannot guarantee your safety.”
“Brother-in-law, you and my sister are just too worried about me! I’m already a ten-year-old man. Even Sister Lian’, who is a year younger than me, is undergoing very difficult training at the Tang Sect. Now, facing such a situation, how can I stand aside! Besides, I’m going to be an official in the future, and I’ll probably encounter dangerous things often. You and my sister can’t always stay by my side.”
“Let’s talk about this when you’re older! As I said, if you can convince your sister, I won’t stop you either.”
Hearing Gu Qingheng’s words, Gu Yu couldn’t help but sigh… Children really grow up and have their own ideas. If it were in the past, Gu Qingheng was very obedient and well-behaved! However, Gu Yu still insisted on his original decision. He disagreed. Letting his younger brother-in-law take risks this time was different from him actively taking risks. With the slightest mistake, it could lead to very serious consequences. This was a result that Gu Yu and Mengyao Gu did not want to see.
And Gu Qingheng, seeing Gu Yu’s serious expression, knew that this brother-in-law, who was usually easier to talk to than his sister, would absolutely not agree now, so he could only try to find a breakthrough from his sister. Gu Qingheng felt that he had to take a risk to save innocent people!
“Hmph, brother-in-law, just you wait, I will definitely convince my sister!” Thinking of this, Gu Qingheng did not waste any more time with Gu Yu. He made a funny face at Gu Yu and then hurried to find Mengyao Gu to talk.
And Gu Yu, looking at Gu Qingheng’s retreating back, smiled helplessly, thinking that this younger brother-in-law was truly fearless! However, he definitely wouldn’t succeed. Afterwards, Gu Yu didn’t think about it anymore. Instead, he took out the Medical Scripture from his spatial dimension, preparing to read the contents of the book to spend the afternoon and enrich his medical knowledge.
However, although Gu Yu’s eyes were on the book, his heart was still uncontrollably thinking about what had just happened, and he began to be unsure if Mengyao Gu would agree to Gu Qingheng’s request. Although Gu Yu knew that with Mengyao Gu’s personality, she would definitely not agree. But his younger brother-in-law was like a little clever ghost, and things were really unpredictable! Really, he didn’t feel this younger brother-in-law was that important before… But now, knowing that he was about to venture into danger, he was really worried!
While Gu Yu was struggling, he didn’t read anything all afternoon. When it was finally time for dinner, he prepared to go out and move the table. However, as soon as he stepped out of the door, he found that there was no smell of cooking. Only Mengyao Gu and her brother were sitting separately in a huff, which immediately made Gu Yu realize the outcome. It seemed that Gu Qingheng had not succeeded.
Moreover, he had made Mengyao Gu very angry.
“A Yu, you’re here! Because of some things today, I didn’t cook dinner. Let’s just eat ready-made food!”
“Okay! It’s because of Qingheng’s business, right? Don’t be too angry. Children are ignorant, don’t nitpick with him.” Then, after hearing Mengyao Gu’s words, Gu Yu immediately nodded, but he did not leave afterward. Instead, he spoke a few words to persuade Mengyao Gu, hoping to calm her down.
And Gu Qingheng, who was not far away, heard this and opened his mouth as if to say something. But seeing Mengyao Gu’s angry expression, he held back without speaking. Instead, he reached out and plucked the small grass on the ground, using it to vent his frustration.
“A Yu, you know about this too?”
“Yes, Qingheng told me first initially, but I didn’t agree. Instead, I told him to ask for your opinion before deciding.”
“I will absolutely not agree!”
“Sister, I’m already ten years old. You can’t keep me locked up at home all the time, can you! Besides, if I don’t act as bait, more innocent people in Lian Town will die. They are all living lives!”
While Mengyao Gu and Gu Yu were talking, Gu Qingheng finally couldn’t help it. He crumpled the grass in his hand into a ball, then threw it on the ground and looked up at Mengyao Gu, directly speaking. This made Mengyao Gu’s face look even worse. And Gu Yu, watching from the side, was speechless at this younger brother-in-law, thinking that Mengyao Gu was currently angry, and Gu Qingheng dared to speak like this. Be careful not to get beaten by your sister.
