On the other side, preparations for the club work were almost done by Lu Yinan. After finalizing the schedule, they directly booked a flight back to Luo City for tomorrow.

As Lu Miao was about to get up to freshen up and go to bed, the phone notification sounded again. She reached out and picked up her phone to check, only to find it was a message from Old Master Fu.

Worried that it might be something important, she immediately opened the message.

“Miao Miao, are you asleep?” The message had a casual tone. Lu Miao checked the sender again to confirm it was indeed from Old Master Fu before replying, “Not yet. Is there something you need, Old Master Fu?”

“I heard from Jing Shen that you’ll be flying back to Luo City tomorrow?” Old Master Fu asked.

“Yes, I came to Beijing mainly for a knowledge competition, and now that everything here is done, it’s time to go back,” Lu Miao replied.

“If you’re not in a rush to leave, could you come to my house tomorrow?” Old Master Fu asked.

Lu Miao was a bit puzzled. Didn’t they just meet tonight? After thinking for a moment, she replied, “Is there something wrong at your house, Old Master

On the other end of the phone, there was a pause before the response came,

“Well, there is a small issue, and I was wondering if you could come and help.”

Lu Miao could tell from Old Master Fu’s initiative to bring up the matter at night that it must be something they couldn’t discuss on the phone. She replied directly, “Sure, just give me the address, and I’ll come over tomorrow morning. ”

“No need, I’ll have Jing Shen pick you up tomorrow,” the last message from Old Master Fu came with a cute rabbit gifs saying goodnight.

As Lu Miao looked at the emoticon, she fell into contemplation. Could it really be that Old Master Fu was the one sending her these messages and not Fu Jingshen pretending to be Old Master Fu?

On the other side.

Old Master Fu put down the phone in hand as the study door was pushed open from outside.

Fu Jingshen walked in, “The person has confessed. Someone from the Su family to target his son, causing him to fall seriously ill recently. In order to save his son, he agreed to tamper with the plane.”

Seriously ill? Old Master Fu lightly tapped his fingers on the desk a few times,

“Where is Gu Shiyan now?”

“He should be in Country T, negotiating overseas cooperation with a company,” Fu Jingshen replied.

Just a few days ago, he coincidentally bumped into Gu Shiyan at the airport when he was seeing Old Master off, so he asked casually.

Country T?

Was it just a coincidence?

As far as he knew, Country T was particularly famous in some aspects.

After a moment’s thought, Old Master Fu said directly, “Hand him over to Gu

Shiyan.”

Fu Jingshen pondered for a moment, “Are you implying that Gu Shiyan’s previous illness might also be related to the Su family?”

Old Master Fu didn’t answer his question but instead asked, “Do you remember

Su Muyan?”

Furrowing his brow, Fu Jingshen replied, ‘Wasn’t he in a car accident and died when he was seven or eight?”

Su Muyan was two years younger than him, and although the Su and Fu families were in different camps, they were both part of the same circle in Beijing, and he had met him a few times when they were young.

Later, Su Muyan had an accident on his way to school, and he was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. After that, no one ever saw him again.

Everyone believed that he had died in the car accident, and the Su family never refuted the claim. Their silent attitude was almost equivalent to an admission. “It’s just a rumor, and no one has seen it with their own eyes

Indeed, Su Muyan had an accident that year, but what happened after the accident, apart from the Su family, no one knew.

Fu Jingshen rubbed his chin and paced a few steps on the spot, “Three months ago, after the news of Gu Shiyan’s illness spread, there were rumors circulating privately that the Gu family arranged Gu Shiyan’s engagement to save his life, intending to use his fiancée’s life to extend his.”

“While we all find this claim ridiculous, some people still believe it. That’s why the Lu family changed their decision at the last moment and brought Lu Miao back from the countryside to marry in his place.”

But it was precisely Lu Miao’s appearance and the mysterious abilities she repeatedly displayed that made him believe such absurd things could actually come true.

Turning to Old Master Fu, he asked, “Dad, are you suspecting that Su Muyan is still alive and they want to use Gu Shiyan’s life to extend his?”

However, everyone knew that Second Master Gu was cunning and decisive. Whoever provoked him would certainly meet a bad end.

If the Su family just wanted to extend Su Muyan’s life, they could find many other candidates without taking such a huge risk to provoke Gu Shiyan.

Old Master Fu shook his head, “Though I still don’t know exactly what the Su family is planning, it definitely isn’t as simple as just extending a life. With Gu Shiyan in the middle, we’d better not intervene directly. Moreover, his trip to

Country T is probably not a mere coincidence for business cooperation.”

“He wants to deal with the Su family, so why not let him do it and, at the same time, give him a favor?” he continued.

True masters of metaphysics often preferred to stay hidden and free from restrictions. Those recruited by the Bureau were mainly skilled in Feng Shui and capable of handling ordinary paranormal events. The sinister methods used by the Su family were beyond the Bureau’s expertise.

Old Master Fu had to consider these factors if he wanted to take action against the Su family.

But Gu Shiyan was different; he had Lu Miao, a master of metaphysics, by his side. The Su family’s tricks wouldn’t pose a threat to her. Therefore, Gu Shiyan was the best candidate to deal with the Su family.

Handing Gu Shiyan the recruited individual would not only help him find evidence for revenge but also eliminate the Su family, killing two birds with one stone.

“Understood,” Fu Jingshen nodded.

Old Master Fu seemed to think of something and looked at him disdainfully,

“Understood? What did you undestand?! The difference between you and Gu Shiyan is like heaven and earth. Look at him, and then look at you. If you could successfully pursue Lu Miao, would I need to put so much effort here?”

Indeed, it seemed that other people’s children were always the most outstanding.

Fu Jingshen was also speechless, “Lu Miao is someone else’s pre-arranged fiancée. Look at her parents, then look at you. How come you didn’t arrange Lu

Miao to be ours earlier?”O

“Enough, enough! Tomorrow, I’ve arranged for Lu Miao to come to our house. You better seize the opportunity and make a good impression,” Old Master Fu said impatiently.

At the same time, in the Presidential Suite at the top of the Hilton in the capital of Country T, Gu Shiyan was looking at the information in his hand.

“Where is the person now?” he asked.

Tang Mochen replied, “They’re in a temple on a nearby island.”

Gu Shiyan sneered, “The Su family is indeed clever, hiding someone in a temple

all these years..”
