Chapter 945 - The Pain of an Attack (1/2)

Even if there was a traffic jam, it would take half an hour to get from the Gu residence to this place. After waiting for half an hour, he got angry and ordered takeout.

But after ordering the takeout, he couldn’t eat it either. He threw it on the table and waited until the food had turned cold without eating a bite. He made up his mind that even if she came, he wouldn’t go anymore. It wasn’t a good place either.

Jun Shiyan said, “Father-in-law, I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I forgot to tell you that Second Brother cooked at home. Will you go over and taste it?”

Upon hearing this, Huo Ci opened the door right away and glared at him. “Is he crazy? With his body like that, he still cooked? What’s wrong with you people? Don’t you know how to stop him?”

Jun Shiyan smiled humbly. “You know Second Brother’s disposition. How can we stop him? Hence, why we’re asking you to go over and help stop him, right?”

Ling Sheng could clearly see the change in her father’s expression again. In the end, he turned around and grabbed a coat.

Huo Ci looked at them and shouted, “What are you waiting for?! Let’s go!”

Ling Sheng secretly gave Jun Shiyan a thumbs up. Awesome. He managed to settle her father with just a few words. Impressive!

Xiaoqi followed behind Huo Ci eagerly. “Grandpa, wait for Xiaoqi.”

Huo Ci looked at the little fellow. When he thought about how he had missed him at the kindergarten, he felt unhappy. He lectured him with a cold face. “Who told you to leave with someone else?”

Xiaoqi thought about it seriously. “It’s not ‘someone else’. It’s Grandma!”

Huo Ci said, “You can’t leave with Grandma either. Weren’t you in school? Can you skip class at will? If you can’t keep up with the curriculum, can she take responsibility? Won’t I have to tutor you in the end?”

Standing at the side, Ling Sheng sneaked peeks at Jun Shiyan and touched his hand secretly. Then, she saw her father’s eyes flash over like radar. It was extremely dangerous. She hurriedly corrected her expression, straightened her body, and smiled at him. “Father.”

Huo Ci glanced at the two of them coldly. Do you think I’m blind? How dare you play tricks in front of me? Look at how capable you are!

Ling Sheng and Jun Shiyan went to pick up Huo Ci while Jiang Zhe went to find Tang Yu. Only Wen Ruoshui, Nangong Lengyu, and Yan Yuanfei, who was hiding away, were left in the Gu residence.

After being entrusted with the task, Nangong Lengyu was afraid that something would happen to the person in the study if his illness relapsed, so she had already made excuses to go in several times. When she pushed the door open and entered again, she saw the man lying on the ground in pain. His wheelchair had rolled far away, and his body kept twitching.

“Second Brother!” Nangong Lengyu was so alarmed that her face turned deathly pale in an instant. After locking the door, she ran nervously to his side. Seeing the man’s pained expression, she got anxious. “Second Brother, Second Brother, can you hear me? Second Brother?”

The man lying on the ground was curled up. In the wheelchair, she couldn’t tell how weak his body was. But when he curled up and convulsed, it was shocking to watch.

“Second Brother, Second Brother!” Nangong Lengyu didn’t dare to raise her voice, afraid that the person outside would hear her. But his hearing wasn’t good either, and the pain seemed to have caused him to lose all awareness. She could only lean closer and call out, “Second Brother, what should I do? Tell me, what should I do?”

Fourth Brother Jiang had left in a hurry and only asked her to look after him, but he didn’t tell her what she should do if his illness acted up.

When she got closer, she saw that the man’s mouth was bleeding. He had bitten his lips to resist the urge to make a sound. The blood flowed down his chin and onto his clothes. Finally, he heard her voice and squeezed out a few words weakly and painfully. “Slowly, I’ll slowly… be fine… Don’t… worry.”

“Second Brother…” Nangong Lengyu held the man’s ice-cold hand. He was so thin that it seemed like only skin and bones were left. For a moment, her heart ached uncontrollably, and tears suddenly fell.

Outside, Wen Ruoshui saw that she hadn’t returned for a long time. She walked to the study door and pushed it. It was actually locked. She knocked on the door. “Yu’er, what are you doing?”
