"Oh, okay..."
Gu Xiyan had originally dared to hug her parents because she clearly knew that their blood tests were fine, only then did she do so.
But she forgot about the Tide of Chaos and the demons.
Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's instructions, her heart tensed, and she began to interrogate everyone one by one.
In the end, she found that Gu Shiqian, the cousin who had once taken over her Face of Jade Company, had many problems with her mory and could not answer many of her questions.
Gu Xiyan's heart sank. Although the two had had many conflicts, she truly did not wish for any misfortune to befall her relatives when it ca to serious matters.
But Gu Shiqian seed to have had her mory tampered with by the Tide of Chaos.
And when Gu Xiyan asked Gu Shiqian several questions, to which she gave incorrect answers, the faces of the Gu family mbers by her side also changed slightly.
They knew sothing was wrong with Gu Shiqian.
When Gu Xiyan bluntly pointed out that Gu Shiqian might have a problem, Gu Shiqian's parents couldn't help but burst into tears.
Though they could hardly bear to part with their daughter, they didn't dare to forcibly keep her with them for the safety of everyone else.
anwhile, Gu Shiqian's expression changed dramatically as she pleaded in haste, "I'm fine, I really don't have a problem. Cousin, are you doing this because of the conflict we had a while ago?!"
"I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again, cousin, brother-in-law, please don't send away, okay?"
Gu Shiqian begged piteously, then turned to look at her parents, grandparents, uncles, and aunts, hoping they would speak up for her.
Gu Xiyan calmly said, "Don't worry, Xiaoqian, your problem isn't serious, but for everyone's safety, you need to live alone in another building temporarily, rest assured, if anything happens, we won't ignore you..."
"I don't want to!"
Gu Shiqian scread, "Those people over there have blood problems—who knows when they'll beco demonized. They weren't imdiately killed just because it's a rcy. You're making live with them, what about my safety? Why don't you go live with them?"
"I don't care, I ca all the way here with great difficulty, I'm fine, no one can send away..."
Gu Shiqian scread as if she were going mad.
"Slap!"
Mu Jinyu had no patience for her, walking up and slapping her directly.
He had plenty of matters to attend to; if these people hadn't been sowhat related to him, he wouldn't have bothered coming to see them at all, let alone spending ti checking to see if any of them were demon minions.
"You hit ?!" This update ıs available on novel·fire·net
Gu Shiqian, holding her face, looked at Mu Jinyu incredulously, and then started screaming like a madwoman, "I'm going to fight you all, I'm clearly fine, and yet you insist on framing !"
"Slap!"
Mu Jinyu gave her another slap, this ti with a bit more force, knocking her out.
"Take her away!"
Mu Jinyu didn't bother to argue with Gu Shiqian or to explain anything to the Gu family mbers; he just gave his order to the mbers of the Dragon King Hall behind him.
"Yes."
The mber responded and stepped forward without delay, picking up Gu Shiqian and taking her away.
Gu Shiqian's parents watched the scene, trying to speak several tis but stopping themselves, and in the end, they said nothing.
After all, judging by their daughter's reaction just now, the problem seed quite serious. If they let her stay in their suite, they might not be able to prevent a major incident.
As parents, they might be willing to take the risk, but now they were not the only ones living together, there were other residents as well, so they dared not speak up.
"These people should all be safe for now, you go have a good talk with your parents first."
Mu Jinyu looked at the Gu Family mbers who began to show fear towards him, didn't say much, just nodded slightly to Gu Xiyan's parents, gave Gu Xiyan a few instructions, and then went with Wen Rou and i Yinxue to find the Family mbers of the Xu family.
After eting the Family mbers of the Xu family, Mu Jinyu briefly spoke with them, questioned them with the investigative materials he had, and seeing that they were generally all right, he then went to find Yu Linglong and the others.
Wen Rou and Xu Qingya were whispering to each other. Xu Qingya looked at Mu Jinyu several tis as if she wanted to say sothing but stopped herself, and finally, as he left, she watched his back and her eyes dimd.
"Wen Rou, I'm so envious of you right now,"
Xu Qingya said in a low voice after Mu Jinyu left.
"Ah? What happened?" Wen Rou asked, sowhat puzzled.
Xu Qingya's tone was filled with regret as she said, "Back then when I saw a few of you follow Director Mu, I liked him in my heart, but I didn't want to compete for anything and just buried this feeling deep inside. Now... sigh..."
Wen Rou understood Xu Qingya's thoughts upon hearing her words.
It wasn't that she thought won who were with Mu Jinyu during these dangerous tis would be better taken care of, which was why she envied them.
It was likely that, faced with the possibility of an untily death, the uncertainty of living from one day to the next, life being so fragile, she could no longer suppress her feelings and longed to have a lover by her side to protect and encourage her during these tis.
But obviously, it was no longer possible for Mu Jinyu to easily accept another woman.
So her feelings were dood to remain unrequited.
"Sigh..."
Wen Rou let out a small sigh too, feeling sorry for Xu Qingya. Among them, Xu Qingya was actually the first one to et Mu Jinyu, but due to her personality, they never ended up together in the end.
But she couldn't comfort Xu Qingya with anything, only joining her in feeling sorry.
Mu Jinyu was unaware of Xu Qingya and Wen Rou's conversation. After leaving the temporary suite of the Xu family, he went to look for Yu Linglong, Lin Qiaoxia, and the others.
Due to limited housing, Yu Linglong's family, Lin Qiaoxia's family, and Shen Shuyao's family all lived together in one apartnt.
"Jinyu!"
When Yu Linglong and Lin Qiaoxia saw Mu Jinyu coming over, they both appeared quite excited, especially when they saw Gu Xiyan and Wen Rou were no longer by his side, they couldn't help wanting to rush forward and embrace Mu Jinyu, to express their fear and anxiety from the past few days.
However, because of the presence of both families' parents, as well as Shen Shuyao and the others, they didn't dare to act on this impulse and instead greeted Mu Jinyu with restraint.
"Are you all okay?" Mu Jinyu asked with a smile.
Yu Linglong shook her head and said, "We're fine, but we were really upset for a long ti when you were unconscious a while back."
"Sorry about that..." Mu Jinyu wasn't in a position to tell them that he had actually co close to dying that ti, so he changed the subject, asking how they had been recently.
Shen Shuyao and her grandfather, Shen Changchun, stood to the side, listening to their conversation with a complicated expression.
In her heart, she thought she had long been forgotten by Mu Jinyu, but to her surprise, during this crisis, he had even called them to co to the Capital City for refuge, which moved her deeply.
"It's been a long ti, Miss Shen."
As Shen Shuyao was lost in her thoughts, Mu Jinyu finished speaking with Yu Linglong and approached Shen Shuyao with a smile, saying, "Good to see you again."
Shen Shuyao ca back to her senses, looked at Mu Jinyu, and replied with a smile, "Yes, it has been a long ti. I thought with all your important affairs, you would have forgotten about and my grandfather."
"How could that be?" Mu Jinyu touched his nose and said, "When the Jinyu Group was being boycotted by Lin Pharmaceutical, you were the first to stand by . How could I forget you?"
