Chapter 506: Why Are You Here?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“I’ll go down.” Gu Man picked up her coat and put it on. She was about to walk out the door.

Grandma stopped her anxiously. “Your uncle should be fine. There might be a lot of people, so he was delayed.”

Gu Man recalled the kidnapping tonight and shook her head. “The Gu Family has already made a move. When forced into a corner, rabbits will bite, so we have to be vigilant.”

When her grandmother heard this, she did not stop her, but she also picked up her coat, looking like she wanted to follow. Gu Mian raised her hand to stop her. “Someone needs to stay at home.”

“Then I’ll look for him. You stay at home.” Grandma started to walk out without thinking.

Gu Man had a headache and stopped her again. “Grandma, I’ll go. You’re old and it’s difficult to help you when something happens.”

Grandma hesitated for a moment before deciding to compromise. “Then you have to be careful. Call me if you encounter anything.”

Gu Man nodded. She pushed open the door and walked out. She took the elevator out of the district, but the moment she walked out, she saw someone not far away from the door. Gu Man walked over.

When she met Xiang Yin’s gaze under the street lamp, she sized up the person in front of her and naturally saw the shock in his eyes.

“Why are you here?”

Xiang Yin looked around guiltily because of Gu Man’s words. Then, he scratched the back of his head. “1 just want to walk around outside.”

Gu Man’s gaze did not shift. Her gaze followed Xiang Yin’s face. “You’re feeling guilty. It has something to do with my uncle?”

Xiang Yin’s information network was wider than Gu Manguang’s, so it was not surprising that he could obtain the information in advance. She did not leave downstairs. Other than because of her, she could not think of any other reason.

Xiang Yin’s thoughts were suddenly exposed. He touched the tip of his nose and nodded slightly under Gu Man’s gaze. “I did receive some information, but I’m not sure if it’s accurate, so 1 didn’t tell you.”

As he spoke, Xiang Yin held Gu Man’s gaze and his voice became softer and softer until it was as soft as a mosquito.

“Tsk.” Gu Man tucked the hair covering her eyes behind her and walked closer. The distance between the two of them instantly narrowed. She grabbed Xiang Yin’s collar and said word by word, “This is my business. You don’t have to force yourself.”

Their noses met. Xiang Yin met those pitch-black pupils and was stunned for a moment before he quickly recovered. “You’re already injured. It’s not suitable for you to attack again.”

Gu Man tilted her head and looked at the wound that was covered by her jacket. She sneered and raised her arm. “Are you talking about this small wound that will heal tomorrow?”

With spiritual energy, such superficial wounds could basically be healed in a night. It did not hurt at all.

Xiang Yin’s lips tightened with dissatisfaction. “How can you say it’s a small wound?”

The area of the wound was so large that one could even see open flesh. How could this be a small wound?

Gu Man let go and distanced herself from the two of them. “Either we go together or I’ll be alone.”

Xiang Yin knew that she was dissatisfied with his interference, so he consciously chose the first option.

The two of them walked on the dark path. Xiang Yin honestly told her everything he knew. “I just received a message today. The Gu Family is issuing a mission on the dark web. The target is you.”

At the mention of this, Xiang Yin’s eyes darkened with bloodlust. His fingers subconsciously rubbed the thumb of his other hand.

Gu Man sneered. “That’s all the Gu Family can do. Gu Rou and Gu Yuan are indeed father and daughter. Their schemes are exactly the same, but they underestimate me too much.”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already settled your uncle down. I’m just waiting downstairs.”

Gu Man stopped and turned to look at Xiang Yin. “Then what’s going to happen now?”

“They’ve been caught.”

The few people with black hoods were tied to chairs. They were sitting in a dark room. The faint light from Gu Man and Xiang Yin entering the room made their reactions even more intense.

Xiang Yin came to the side of the room and turned on the light. The person tied to the chair was obedient for a while, but he quickly struggled again.

“Who are you? What do you want? We’re just passing by. What right do you have to tie us up? You’re illegally holding us captive.” The man on the chair struggled very hard. He really sounded like a passerby who had been innocently implicated.

The person Gu Yuan found was more reliable than the person Gu Rou found..
