When Dao An arrived, Gu Yuan was just coming out of the village committee.
"President Gu, are you alright?"
Dao An was very worried. In just a mont of negligence, President Gu had to face such a troubleso matter, which Dao An considered a dereliction of his duty.
Gu Yuan shook her head and said, "I’m fine, it’s already been resolved."
Only then did Dao An breathe a sigh of relief.
On the way there, he had already learned most of the situation and had quickly verified the identities of those people. Except for the person who commissioned them, the others were just so small-ti troublemakers not even making it in the underworld.
"Is the car ready for the return?" Gu Yuan asked.
They were supposed to leave Ancient Water Village today. This ti the plan couldn’t change; if she didn’t return, the Gu Family might be in upheaval without her leadership.
Dao An nodded, "The car is ready, we can depart now."
Pausing a mont, Dao An asked, "Shall we have lunch before leaving, President Gu?"
"No need, let’s go now." Gu Yuan strode ahead quickly.
Dao An followed closely behind.
At this mont, the villagers were still at the village committee directing that group to work. The village head hadn’t smiled this widely in a long ti. Thinking about how the village committee would be completely renovated without spending a di, he could laugh even in his dreams.
...
Last night, Chi Yu was brought back by Yi Shu and Xiong Yao together.
He had fainted in the rain.
Fainting twice in one day was quite unusual.
Xiong Yao, having just returned from his errands, saw that Chi Yu still hadn’t woken up. He turned to pour a cup of water and said after drinking, "I just don’t get it. Why does Brother Yu beco so weak whenever he sees President Gu?"
What is this?
"The domineering female CEO and her sickly delicate husband?" Xiong Yao laughed heartily, "That image instantly popped into my mind."
Yi Shu coughed lightly, "Cough, Chi Yu is awake."
Xiong Yao imdiately shut his mouth and looked carefully, only to see that Chi Yu was still asleep.
"Don’t keep scaring ," Xiong Yao said irritably.
"I just wanted to remind you not to keep rambling on nonsense. If you run into Chi Yu when he’s in a bad mood, see who can save you," Yi Shu reminded him again.
After the reminder, Yi Shu heard Xiong Yao say, "Brother Yu is awake."
Yi Shu didn’t take it seriously, "Alright, let’s just fool each other once."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a ’bang’ sound from behind as a cup fell to the ground. Yi Shu was startled by the noise and turned around to find that Chi Yu, who hadn’t been awake, was already conscious for so ti.
He was already off the bed, and while grabbing a coat, he accidentally knocked over a cup that fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Yi Shu imdiately stepped forward to support Chi Yu, "Why did you get up? Do you feel dizzy or unwell anywhere? I’ve already arranged for a car to take you back. Your health is really poor right now. Last night you were in the rain and developed a high fever. It took a solid three hours of physical cooling to bring your temperature down."
Chi Yu’s face was marked by a sickly frailty.
His lips were pale, and he was so weak that even handling clothes seed an effort.
Chi Yu asked, "Who brought back?"
His voice was so hoarse, as if devoid of moisture, that it seed it could catch fire. Xiong Yao quickly poured a cup of water and handed it to Chi Yu, "Brother Yu, have so water before you speak. Last night, it was Yi Shu and I who carried you back."
Carried...
Indeed, they carried him back.
The village head’s house didn’t offer lodging, and President Gu was unwelcoming, so ultimately Yi Shu and Xiong Yao had to carry him, with the kind Dao An personally holding an umbrella to escort them part of the way.
