Lu Chi was about to answer Gu Qingcheng when his phone rang.
“Wait a minute.”
He picked up the phone, and his face darkened.
Under the dim light of the light stick, Gu Qingcheng saw the change in Lu Chi’s expression.
“What happened?” She asked Lu Chi softly.
Lu Chi hung up the phone. “The Qin family didn’t hire someone to kill him. That’s all we found out for now. The Gu family is still investigating. I just received news that the black market was destroyed, and someone is targeting me.”
Gu Qingcheng was speechless.
“I don’t think this is a coincidence.” Lu Chi’s expression was unfriendly. “Your son went missing, and I was with you. My men who saved your son all died, and then my property was destroyed. Everything was in order.”
“Moreover, you know the background of the Lu family. We have been in Jiang City for so many years and have seen all kinds of Feng Yu. Only no one dares to touch the Lu family. This is the first time the Lu family has been touched. How dare you touch me without any trace? The identity of the person who touched me is not simple but also very troublesome.”
“The problem is, other than the Qin and Gu families, I have no other enemies,”
Gu Qingcheng said with certainty. “Besides, even if I have other enemies, they’re not so powerful that they’d even touch the Lu family.”
Lu Chi stared at Gu Qingcheng. “I thought of the helicopter earlier. It was flying in the same direction as us.”
Gu Qingcheng remembered that Lu Chi had said this before. She had not been in the mood to talk to him back then.
“So you suspect that the helicopter came here?” She looked thoughtful. “But when I was searching for my son, there was no sign of a helicopter landing.” Lu Chi’s eyes were filled with thoughts. He said to Gu Qingcheng, “Follow me.”
Gu Qingcheng followed behind Lu Chi and walked around the entire place where the helicopter could be parked.
“There’s no trace at all.” She looked at Lu Chi, panting from exhaustion. “The helicopter might be a coincidence.”
“It can’t be a coincidence.” Lu Chi frowned. “If he could kill them all silently, he definitely wouldn’t leave any traces. That helicopter is very suspicious. I want to check the plane.”
“How are you going to check?” Gu Qingcheng asked Lu Chi. “It’s easy to investigate a private plane. If it’s a military plane, no matter how capable the Lu family is, they won’t be able to get in.”
“Army?” Lu Chi furrowed his brows. “It’s not impossible. If that’s the case, it’ll be even more troublesome. But why was it military? I helped you find your son, so this happened. In the end, the root cause is still you.”
“I’ve told you a million times, I don’t have such a powerful enemy.” Gu Qingcheng was a little agitated. “I know that I have something to do with this, but I just don’t have a clue.”
“Let’s go back first.” Lu Chi walked away. “Someone will come to clean up the mess later.”
Sitting in Lu Chi’s car, Gu Qingcheng felt a strong sense of powerlessness that made her suffer.
Lu Chi wanted to persuade Gu Qingcheng, but he didn’t know what to say.
After a long time, he broke the silence and asked Gu Qingcheng, “It’s almost dawn. It’s closer to my house from here.”
“No, thanks,” Gu Qingcheng said. “I want to go home.”
“Home?” Lu Chi asked Gu Qingcheng. “Yunduan? Wanmei Villa?” “Wanmei Villa,” Gu Qingcheng said subconsciously.
Lu Chi turned the car around and drove towards Wanmei Villa.
“Are you going back to Wanmei Villa to get angry?” He asked Gu Qingcheng. “Your son is missing, and Huo Sicheng didn’t even go out to look for him. Your marriage is fake, right?”
Gu Qingcheng didn’t have the energy to talk to Lu Chi at first, but his words made her even more frustrated.
“If you don’t know how to speak, then shut up.”
“I didn’t say anything wrong.” Lu Chi glanced at Gu Qingcheng through the rearview mirror. “You and Huo Sicheng are sworn enemies. Besides, he went to see you when you were fighting. He bet that you would lose, but you won.” “That’s right, Huo Sicheng and I were sworn enemies.” Gu Qingcheng was furious. “If we can get married, it means we’re no longer enemies.”
“Is it that simple?” Lu Chi didn’t hide his disbelief in Gu Qingcheng’s words.
“We’ve been enemies for so many years, yet we’re getting married and making up just like that. Are you kidding me?”
When Gu Qingcheng returned to Royal Dance, someone sent her a card. It was the card she had used to pay Lu Chi, and he had returned it. He had also heard the message asking her to answer his question again.
“I will only answer once, and that is what I told you last time.” She didn’t want to think about the past and said coldly. “You’re right. Huo Sicheng and I can’t reconcile just because we’re sworn enemies. We’ve been through a lot of conflicts until we accepted each other.”
“I’m not satisfied with your answer. You have to reply to me again.” Lu Chi’s voice was also cold. “You said that you and Huo Sicheng accepted each other. Then whose son is this? The former Qin Jun? I don’t think you’ll give birth to a son for Qin Jun. Besides, I’ve looked into your son. According to his age, you happened to be studying abroad when you gave birth to him.”
“What nonsense are you spouting!” Gu Qingcheng glared at Lu Chi. “Shut up!
There’s nothing between Qi Shaoze and me. We’re just good friends.” “Good friends?” Lu Chi sneered. “There is no pure friendship between a man and a woman.”
“Believe it or not,” Gu Qingcheng said impatiently.
Lu Chi, who was driving, could feel Gu Qingcheng’s anger. He didn’t say anything until he parked the car in front of Wanmei Villa and turned to look at Gu Qingcheng.
The sky was getting brighter, and he could clearly see that Gu Qingcheng was in a daze.
“I won’t send you in. Let’s not talk about whether I can enter Wanmei Villa or not. Even if people see that a married woman like you was sent back by my single man, it will cause trouble.”
Gu Qingcheng didn’t even look at Lu Chi. She opened the door and got out of the car.
She was so tired that her legs felt like they were filled with lead. She used up all her strength with every step she took.
Lu Chi didn’t leave immediately. He got into the car and kept his eyes on Gu Qingcheng until she entered Wanmei Villa. A bitter look of helplessness flashed across his eyes as he drove away.
At that moment, a male servant of Wanmei Villa saw Gu Qingcheng, and his face was full of shock. Usually, Gu Qingcheng was elegant and noble, but today, her face was covered in blood, her clothes were dirty, and her hair was messy. It was as if something terrible had happened to her.
“Madam.” He stepped forward carefully. “There’s an elevator here.”
Gu Qingcheng stopped in her tracks. This was the first time she had heard that the elevator in Wanmei Villa was connected to all directions.
When she came to the living room, she subconsciously looked at the sofa in the middle because Huo Sicheng would always be waiting for her there every time she came back.
This time, she didn’t see Huo Sicheng on the sofa. She didn’t have time to be disappointed. When she turned around, she saw Huo Si sitting by the window. His well-defined handsome face was stern and frosty.
She immediately recalled what Lu Chi had said about Huo Sicheng not looking for her son, Huo Xuan, and her chest was filled with shock and anger.
Huo Xuan was kidnapped, but he didn’t look for her and just sat at home?
Huo Sicheng’s eyes narrowed slightly, so she couldn’t tell what he was thinking.
No matter what he was thinking, he sat in the living room indifferently, ignoring their son at all. She was furious!
“Huo Sicheng!” She roared at him. “I was in shock the whole night.. How can you sit here so peacefully? Why? Tell me why?”
