Chapter 1218 - 1221: Do You Think You Deserve It? 17
"Now that there’s no one in charge at home, Old Master Gu Fei (Gu Shaocheng’s granduncle) has returned to oversee things. He said we should try our best to find the whereabouts of the master and think of ways to rescue him. I don’t know if it will be reliable or not, Young Master Hua, perhaps you should go find Young Master Yan. After the commotion in the Gu Family this afternoon, everyone is on edge, and with the master missing, several of the Gu Family’s power holders and senior members were just quarreling in the main hall about how to stabilize the situation. I think what they want to stabilize is the great tree of the Gu Family, not necessarily the master. If the master has really done something wrong, they will definitely sacrifice the pawn to protect the king. I’ve been through this several times before, once when the old master was still alive."
Hua Hua felt like he was about to lose his mind!
He heard the news that his brother was in a wheelchair. He struggled to finally escape the bitter situation, eager to hurry back. Crimson Shadow told him that although his brother’s legs couldn’t stand, his health was gradually improving; this made him breathe a deep sigh of relief. But upon returning, instead of the banquet his brother was supposed to have arranged for him, he was met with the news of his brother’s disappearance. Now even his second and third brothers were in trouble!
Who could tell him what was happening?
He and Crimson Shadow quietly left the Gu Family. As they were leaving, Crimson Shadow glimpsed a woman walking under the moonlight, and that person was none other than Wang Yuanyuan.
"What are you looking at?" Hua Hua turned his head.
"Nothing," Crimson Shadow answered, and the two left the Gu Family.
Crimson Shadow issued a special order to the leaderless personal guards. Hua Hua used his phone to call Yan Fengchi, but no one answered. He went to his villa, and Yan Fengchi wasn’t there.
Hua Hua didn’t call anyone else. He walked around the yard with his hands in his pockets, turning twice. After Crimson Shadow went out to meet some personal guards and then returned to join him, the two went back to Hua Hua’s villa and had a simple meal.
Neither of them slept in the middle of the night. Crimson Shadow brought some things from his own place, took out a flashlight, and started tinkering. Hua Hua squatted beside him, curiously asking, "What are you tinkering with?"
"Contacting the master," Crimson Shadow only said four words!
Hua Hua’s eyes lit up. "You know where my brother is, how to contact him?"
"Young Master Hua, please be quiet for a while. I need to concentrate."
"...Fine, I’ll endure!"
Crimson Shadow didn’t look up, continuing his research.
Inside the master’s wheelchair was a special communication code, known to few, and he happened to be one of those with the right to know. He hadn’t expected the master to go missing, and it was undoubtedly related to Wang Yuanyuan, but how it was connected to military vehicles perplexed him.
For now, he had to wait until they caught Wang Yuanyuan before interrogating her. The top priority now was to contact the master, determine his whereabouts, and execute a rescue plan.
Unfortunately, he tried sending signals several times without any response. Just when he was about to give up, the device suddenly lit up, followed by a string of chaotic numerical codes. Hua Hua shouted with curiosity to Crimson Shadow, who had gone to the bathroom, "Crimson Shadow, there’s a response, come quickly."
Hua Hua had already quickly jotted down the string of chaotic numerical codes on paper.
Crimson Shadow rushed back, grabbed the numerical codes Hua Hua had noted, looked at them for 30 seconds, then translated: "The master says he’s in the hands of The Great Lai!"
Hua Hua jumped up in an instant, fuming mad: "What?!!!"
