Chapter 264: Young Master, Don’t Be fooled

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Living together as a man and a woman in the same room, sharing the same bed, Lu Zhiyuan quickly realized that his self-control was not as strong as he had imagined.

Gu Ci’s words kept echoing in his ears.

“Honey, don’t do this…”

Did he indulge himself like this in his previous life?

Lu Zhiyuan’s body had a shameful reaction, and he took a deep breath, calming the restlessness in his heart. He lay stiffly in bed, and Gu Ci slept peacefully. Lu Zhiyuan looked at Gu Ci with complex emotions.

He had selfish thoughts. He wanted to possess Gu Ci. If Third Young Master never woke up again, it wouldn’t be too bad.

Because of such selfishness, he felt even more miserable, knowing it was wrong.

After having lunch at Chen Liangdong’s house, Gu Ziyu was taken home by Chen Fei. Unexpectedly, he saw Li Jiang and Lu Zhiyuan’s security team at the door. Li Jiang approached him with a flattering smile, “Young Master Gu, have you grown taller recently?”

Gu Ziyu looked at him with a cold expression, maintaining his cool demeanor. Li Jiang knew that he had lost a front tooth, didn’t speak much, and didn’t mind. After exchanging greetings with Chen Fei and Li Jiang, Gu Ziyu returned to the police station.

“Can he get out of bed?” Gu Ziyu spoke with minimal movement of his lips, keeping his voice inside his mouth.

“Yes, Third Master can get out of bed.”

Gu Ziyu frowned, “Why is he here instead of recuperating at Global?”

Li Jiang cleverly stepped forward and whispered, “Miss Gu Ci hasn’t visited Third Master at Global recently. Third Master was a bit unhappy, so he secretly came to see her. This morning, Miss Gu lied to Third Master, saying she was tired from studying all night and needed to sleep. But Third Master came here and found Miss Gu playing basketball with her classmates. It was quite a scene, and the lie was exposed on the spot, very embarrassing.”

Gu Ziyu chuckled and asked with great amusement, “Was he very angry?”

“Somewhat excited!” Li Jiang said mysteriously.

“Excited?” Gu Ziyu raised an eyebrow in confusion.

Li Jiang remembered Lu Zhiyuan kissing Gu Ci against a tree, which seemed quite exciting, but Young Master Gu, being the nation’s little flower, probably didn’t understand. So Li Jiang said, “He was a bit angry!”

“Tsk…” Gu Ziyu walked inside with a pleased mood.

Inside the room, it was quiet. Gu Ziyu raised an eyebrow and called out, “Mom?”

No one answered, and he couldn’t see anyone downstairs. He went upstairs, and Gu Ci’s bedroom door was open. When Gu Ziyu approached the door, he saw Lu Zhiyuan holding Gu Ci as they slept.

Lu Zhiyuan was also asleep. The room was silent, and the gauzy curtains floated gently, creating a warm atmosphere. Gu Ziyu was taken aback; he had never seen his parents lying on the same bed taking a nap together. He didn’t know what touched him, but his eyes inexplicably welled up with tears.

Gu Ziyu closed the door quietly, leaned against the wall, and rubbed his eyes. “1 hate this!”

Although he said he hated it, he couldn’t suppress his laughter. A harmonious family was his lifelong wish, and his parents would definitely live harmoniously from now on, without any more complications, right?

Oh, wait!

Now, Mom had replaced Uncle as the head of the Triad, and the Triad and the Black Hawks were mortal enemies.

Whether it was the Triad or the Black Hawks, they were his enemies.

Gu Ziyu chuckled; their whole family was suitable for a palace intrigue drama!

Gu Ziyu whistled and walked out with an apple in his mouth. He called Li Jiang in to make tea. There was a tea set prepared in Gu Ci’s garden. Li Jiang boiled water and made tea while Gu Ziyu asked, “Is there any news about my uncle?” “Not yet!” Li Jiang brewed the tea while keeping a composed expression. “Ji Chi is still looking for him!”

“Is that so?” Gu Ziyu took a bite of the apple. “Li Jiang, the consequences of lying to me are severe.”

“Young Master, when you seek revenge, make sure it’s precise, don’t vent your anger on the innocent.” Li Jiang handed him a cup of hot tea.

Gu Ziyu said, “So, you do know that Ji Chi has imprisoned him. You all know his whereabouts but turn a blind eye. My mother needs to know about this; it’s a serious matter.”

“I didn’t say that,” Li Jiang said. “It’s a misunderstanding, Young Master.”

“Sugar, please!” Gu Ziyu watched him make tea with a practiced ease, feeling content.

“Adding sugar to this tea is a waste!”

“Do you want it, or should I drink it?”

“How much sugar?”

“Two sugar cubes, 1 guess.”

“Alright!” Li Jiang brewed the black tea, added sugar, and Gu Ziyu enjoyed it. “I heard that the new owner of the Triad’s dark web has come online. How do you feel about the financial battle between you and them?”

“Our Third Master is unbeatable!”

Gu Ziyu sneered, “Oh, truly unbeatable, my uncle killed them all!”

“Young Master, I have to clarify this. Third Master did it on purpose, trying to figure out the Triad’s secrets. Who would have known it had such a big background? Most people wouldn’t dare to think about it,” Li Jiang was very confident in Lu Zhiyuan’s abilities.

“So, did he figure it out?”

“Young Master, you’re being sly. Are you trying to trick me?”

“I’m your Young Master, shouldn’t you tell me everything?”

Li Jiang frowned and said honestly, “Young Master, you still have Third Master on top of you. You haven’t inherited the family business, and Third Master hasn’t stepped down either. You don’t seem to have any plans to seize power or take over, so… i can’t reveal everything. Otherwise, Third Master will kill me and feed me to the sharks in the sea.”

“Is he so cruel?”

“Yes, it is. I dare not even take a deep breath in front of Third Master. Third Young Master is much easier to serve.”

On this point, Gu Ziyu knew he wasn’t lying. He had seen Li Jiang being extremely cautious in front of Lu Zhiyuan several times.

“Young Master, is there no information at all from the MSS about Jiang Junlin?” Li Jiang asked with a sly smile. “After all, Black Hawk is your family’s business. If you have any inside information, why not share a bit?”

“None!” Gu Ziyu said coldly. Recently, his indirect inquiries had raised suspicions from Chen Liangdong, so he decided to come clean. Chen Liangdong was surprised by this, and even with his connections, he couldn’t find any leads.

“Young Master, why don’t you want to inherit Black Hawk?” Li Jiang couldn’t understand. Many people dream of joining Black Hawk, and Young Master had every advantage to take over.

Gu Ziyu said lightly, “I was nurtured by the MSS. Stepping into Black Hawk right after that would be ungrateful, don’t you think?”

Li Jiang pondered silently. He didn’t think it was ungrateful, but he smiled and said, “If you ever get unhappy with the MSS in the future, feel free to come to Black Hawk.”

“Get lost!” Gu Ziyu thought to himself, “Stop jinxing it.”

Li Jiang said, “Young Master, forgive my bluntness, but your personality doesn’t seem to fit well within the system.”

“Then watch and see; I will become the youngest Minister of MSS!” Gu Ziyu snorted.

Li Jiang suddenly realized, “Chen Liangdong must be up to something. He deliberately nurtured you as the successor, probably because he saw through your identity and wants you to target Black Hawk. Young Master, don’t be fooled.”

“You have paranoid delusions, don’t you? When the old man registered me, he

didn’t even know about my relationship with Lu Zhiyuan..”
