Chapter 244: Dad, You’re Really Too Scheming

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lu Zhiyuan, “When did you lose your front tooth?”

As soon as they met, they started teasing each other.

Gu Ziyu’s face darkened; he really found it annoying. Why bring up that sore point!

Gu Ci chuckled and said, “Let’s go back first!”

Li Jiang escorted Lu Zhiyuan to Global Sports Center. Gu Ci had thought about having Lu Zhiyuan stay at the Blue Fields Villa, but Lu Zhiyuan insisted on staying, and his bodyguards couldn’t find a place to sleep. They couldn’t guard him day and night without a proper place to rest.

Gu Ziyu hadn’t spoken to Lu Zhiyuan since he mentioned the missing tooth. He had a big temper. Gu Ci couldn’t help but cry and laugh. She helped Lu Zhiyuan lie down, and Li Jiang and the others brought in medical equipment. Gu Ci wiped his sweat, and even a slight movement made Lu Zhiyuan break into a sweat.

“Brother, how many bones did you break to become this weak?” Gu Ziyu, as an adult, didn’t argue with the patient. Seeing how miserable he looked, he leaned over the bed and looked at the pale Lu Zhiyuan. “Are you trying to gain Mom’s sympathy by acting like this?”

Lu Zhiyuan was taken aback and looked at Gu Ci, who was helping him organize things. He hadn’t thought that far, but his son was quite skilled at acting. He pointed the way, as he sometimes didn’t know what to say to Gu Ci while playing Third Young Master.

“You’re quite cunning!” Gu Ziyu flicked Lu Zhiyuan’s cast with his finger. “You’d do anything to compete for Mom’s attention!”

Lu Zhiyuan was speechless.

“Little sweetheart, don’t move, it hurts!”

Gu Ci turned around just in time to see Gu Ziyu flicking Lu Zhiyuan’s cast and heard Lu Zhiyuan cry out in pain. She came over, saying softly, “Ziyu, when bones are broken, they need to be immobilized. Don’t touch it randomly.”

Gu Ziyu looked at Lu Zhiyuan in bewilderment. He had barely touched it; how could it hurt? But when Mom saw him do it, and Dad cried out in pain, he couldn’t defend himself.

Gu Ziyu placed his hands on his hips. “I’ll settle the score with you when you’re old!”

Hmph!

Gu Ziyu had really misunderstood Lu Zhiyuan.

He had been moving all day today, and his whole body was aching. His hand bones were painful on their own, so he could feel the subtle pain with every little movement.

Gu Ci sat down beside him, carefully covering him with the blanket. Lu Zhiyuan was getting a bit tired, but he still had to maintain his image. “Cici, why don’t you stay at Global? I want to see you every day.”

“Who kicked me out in the first place?”

“I won’t take the blame for that. I didn’t kick you out.” Lu Zhiyuan realized too late that Third Young Master wasn’t to blame for this; he was.

Gu Ci bent down and gently kissed his lips. “Do you really want to see me every day?”

“I do!” He couldn’t distinguish between truth and falsehood anymore. He was worried that without Gu Ci, he would have sleepless nights filled with nightmares. But having her sleep with him at night didn’t fit Third Young Master’s image.

He had really trapped himself!

Gu Ci hugged his neck. “I have classes to attend. 1 have a lot of catching up to do. 1’11 rearrange my schedule, and I’ll free up a day every week for you, including weekends. That’s three days together.”

The two locked eyes, and in Gu Ci’s eyes, Lu Zhiyuan saw a hint of affection. He was surprised and touched, and without thinking, he kissed her eyes. Lu Zhiyuan had peach blossom eyes, and when he focused on someone, it was deep and affectionate, always making hearts flutter.

After Gu Ziyu stormed out of the bedroom, he asked one of the bodyguards, “Where’s Li Jiang?”

The bodyguard replied, “Boss… Oh, he was here a moment ago. Where did he go?”

Gu Ziyu snorted coldly, “Li Jiang, if you don’t come out within three seconds, you’re in big trouble. One, two…”

Li Jiang, appearing from the closet, greeted Gu Ziyu nervously, “Young Master, I’m here.”

Gu Ziyu’s face turned cold; Li Jiang was like a mini version of Third Young Master. Li Jiang’s heart pounded; he was in for it now. Young Master was going to hold him accountable. He smiled obsequiously and groveled, rushing over to give Gu Ziyu a shoulder massage and leg rub. “Young Master, if you have any requests, just say the word. I’ll go through fire and water without blinking an eye.”

Gu Ziyu kicked him, just like when he had kicked Ji Chi back then. “You knew he was Black Hawk’s Third Young Master, and you didn’t tell me? You’ve got quite the nerve. No wonder you were asking all those questions, checking records. You were investigating me!”

This kick aimed at Li Jiang was neither painful nor ticklish. Li Jiang said, “Young Master, everyone has their own responsibilities. This is Third Young Master’s problem. If you want to hit someone, hit him. Don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself; just be reasonable!”

“What, 1 can’t hit him?” Gu Ziyu said, kicking him again. “I’ll settle the score with him when he’s old!”

This debt was put on hold!

Li Jiang was speechless.

Young Master, you’re the one who’s afraid of standing up to him!

“Besides this matter, is there anything else you’re keeping from me?” Gu Ziyu calmly swung his legs, his expression icy. “This is your chance to confess.” “Truly, nothing else!”

“Is that so?”

Li Jiang raised two fingers to swear, but Gu Ziyu slapped them down. “Who caused his accident?”

“Pei Qiuying!”

“Heh, I don’t know what kind of constitution he has, always attracting weirdos!” In his past life, it was Gu Chuyun, and in this life, it was Pei Qiuying. Gu Ziyu thought of Gu Ci and fell into a subtle silence.

What kind of constitution did his father have?

Were there any normal peach blossoms?

Could this constitution be inherited by him?

“Young Master?” Li Jiang saw Gu Ziyu’s vacant gaze and didn’t know what he was thinking. He couldn’t help but call out. Gu Ziyu snapped back to reality and looked at Li Jiang with a half-smile. “Li Jiang, tell me, does he have any other rotten peach blossoms?”

“None at all!”

“Who said Third Young Master isn’t interested in women and is dedicated to his career?”

“He truly isn’t interested in women and is dedicated to his career. Unfortunately, he has a face that attracts women. It’s not Third Young Master’s fault!” Li Jiang felt unjustly treated. Being handsome and charming wasn’t Third Young Master’s fault!

“In the future, if anything happens, no matter how small, you must tell me every detail.”

“Isn’t that inappropriate?”

“Why is it inappropriate?”

“Although you’re Young Master, you’re also in the MSS, and we’re Black Hawk. We’re sworn enemies.”

Gu Ziyu just remembered this; his father was his mortal enemy!

“Young Master,” Li Jiang smiled obsequiously, “Why don’t you resign from National Security? Being the Young Master of Black Hawk is much more prestigious than being a civil servant.”

Gu Ziyu frowned. “I got in based on my abilities. Why should I resign?”

Li Jiang grinned, “Well, there’s the family inheritance to consider, isn’t there?”

“He can have a little brother, and there’s still time for that.”

“Twenty years from now, brothers may turn against each other.” Li Jiang sighed, “Whether I stand by the Boss or the Second Young Master…”

Gu Ziyu didn’t reply.

Gu Ci and Lu Zhiyuan separated, their exchanges filled with affection. When they came out, they saw Li Jiang with Gu Ziyu, and it was like seeing the eunuch chief and the crown prince all over again..
