Yu Mufeng shot a glare in Gu Si’s direction before shifting his gaze to Gu Mang, who was still calmly smiling. He took another deep breath. “So you haven’t been taking the anti-inflammatory medicine either?”


  Gu Si froze.?

  “Mm. Don’t tell anyone else.” Gu Mang’s smile slowly faded as she stared at Yu Mufeng with cold, dark eyes.

  The room’s temperature dropped by a few degrees because of what she said. It was frighteningly cold in the room and the tension was so thick that a knife could slice through it.

  “G-got it…” Yu Mufeng gulped. His heart almost jumped out of his mouth as he nodded stiffly. Mixed emotions showed on his face a moment later. “I’m not that stupid. This is such a serious matter, after all. I wouldn’t dare mention anything about it!”


  He dared not imagine what would happen should Huo Zhi and the Elders’ Association find out.

  As Gu Mang’s aura gradually dissipated, Yu Mufeng carefully read her expression and anxiously asked, “But… how long do you think you can keep it under the wraps? Besides… you still have to take Base 102’s assessment…”


  “Whether or not it’ll live to meet Lu Chengzhou depends on itself.” Gu Mang sounded rather aloof as she turned her back to the computer and clicked the mouse to start a game.

  Yu Mufeng, who was almost dying from anxiety, froze when he heard what she said. His lips twitched slightly, not knowing what he should say in response. Words could not describe the complex emotions he felt when he noticed that she was still in the mood to play games.

  “Why are you two mentioning my brother-in-law again? What did he do?” asked Gu Si anxiously. He was completely baffled by their conversation.?

  Gu Mang said nothing and continued waiting for her game to load, so Yu Mufeng took it upon himself to break the news to Gu Si. Drawing a deep breath, he turned around slightly to face Gu Si and said in all seriousness, “Gu Si, there’s something I have to tell you, but I want your word that you’ll keep your cool after hearing it.”


  Gu Si narrowed his eyes. “…Go on.”


  Yu Mufeng pursed his lips. “Your sister is…”


  …


  Downstairs.

  The living room was relatively quiet at this hour.

  Jiangsui had led his men to conduct a routine check on the villa’s security system and its surroundings, while Bai Qingqing, out of boredom, had gone downstairs to the weapon room to practice her shooting.

  Bai Sui, on the other hand, had just finished talking to Old Master Bai on the phone. He was standing next to the water dispenser with a cup of water in hand when he heard a furious roar from upstairs.

  “Gu Si!”


  Bai Sui turned his head and looked up toward the second floor to see a raging Gu Si jumping straight down to the first floor instead of taking the stairs and charging straight toward the front door. The little guy looked like he was out to murder someone.

  Bai Sui frowned. “Young Master, what hap—”


  “Stop him, Bai Sui!” yelled Yu Mufeng from behind the second floor railing.

  Bai Sui acted immediately. He put down the cup in his hand and strode over to grab Gu Si’s arm.

  “Let go!” Gu Si glared at him fiercely.

  “Young Master…”


  Gu Si, who was boiling with anger, had no patience to listen to anyone and thus attacked Bai Sui. Bai Sui was afraid that he might hurt Gu Si during the fight and thus showed restraint while defending himself. However, Gu Si apparently had no such concerns, as he landed a heavy punch to Bai Sui’s stomach.

  Bai Sui frowned.

  Gu Si had undergone training at Red Flame, so one could imagine just how much force was in his punch.

  “D*mn!” Yu Mufeng jumped over the second floor’s railing and jumped down to the first floor.

  Knowing that Gu Si had lost his rationality, Bai Sui quickly ended the fight by grabbing Gu Si’s arm and twisting it behind his back.

  Gu Si struggled hard to break free as he growled, “Let go of me!”


  “Calm down first,” said Bai Sui gently. He did not get angry despite being punched.

  Gu Si turned his head. “To hell with that!”


  In his current state, Gu Si was like a lit firework that would blow up at anyone. Thus, Bai Sui gave up on asking him questions. He kept a firm grip on Gu Si’s arm as he turned to face Yu Mufeng. “What’s wrong with Young Master?”


  “Nothing, nothing.” Yu Mufeng walked over and came up with a random excuse. “He… just didn’t get the chance to curse at the other player while playing a game earlier, so he wants to go have a duel with that person now.”


  “The young master… didn’t get the chance to curse at others?” asked Bai Sui a moment later.?

  Yu Mufeng seemed to have realized how lousy his excuse was. He laughed dryly. “…Yeah.”


  Bai Sui turned to look at Gu Si again. “You’re going to have a duel with that person?”


  “Duel?” Gu Si scoffed. “I’m going to kill him!”


  Bai Sui had no idea what the other person had scolded Gu Si for him to blow such a huge fuse. Taking into consideration that it was not safe outside, he said after giving it much thought, “Give me the address. I’ll go with you.”


  “D*mn!” Yu Mufeng let out another curse. “Not you too!”


  Gu Si narrowed his eyes at Bai Sui and thought that it was a good idea to take Bai Sui with him seeing how the latter had ulterior motives toward his sister. He calmed down and said coldly, “Fine. Go prepare a helicopter. We’re going to Mingyu Island.”


  Bai Sui raised his eyebrows slightly in confusion. “Mingyu Island?”


  Gu Si’s lips curled into a smirk. “Yeah, buddy. Wanna go to Mingyu Island with me? I’ll show you around. No outsiders have ever been there.”


  An ominous feeling loomed over Bai Sui. “Who is it that you want to kill?”


  “Lu Chengzhou,” replied Gu Si with a wicked smile.

  Bai Sui’s fingers trembled slightly.
