Lu Ning's pupils shrank the moment he saw the message. His entire body trembled.
He stared at the phone for a long time, as if he was completely lost in thought.
"Brother?"
"Brother??"
Zhou Bao kept calling him, but he didn't respond.
She leaned over to look at Lu Ning's phone. It was blank. There was nothing on it. It was just a blank email that was sent by mistake.
"Brother, what's wrong?" She pushed Lu Ning.
"No … nothing." Lu Ning came back to his senses and forced a smile.
"You don't look so good." Zhou Bao felt that something had happened to her brother and asked worriedly.
"Nothing … I just suddenly thought of something in the past." Lu Ning put his phone away. From his sister's reaction, he knew that he was probably the only one who could see the email.
"Let's go out tomorrow. Do you want to go? Let's go together. Just keep me company, okay? "Zhou Bao said coquettishly.
Lu Ning didn't want to go anymore. But he seemed to have thought of something. After Zhou Bao's coaxing and pestering, he finally agreed to go out with her.
Compared to his absent-minded self before, he seemed to be much more serious now. It was as if he was hesitating and thinking about something difficult to decide.
Zhou Bao found it strange, but she didn't take it to heart. Her brother had the habit of showing off since he was young. He would often say things that others couldn't understand.
What did he mean by his distinguished status, his outstanding talent, and that he was merely a Telekinesis? She was used to all kinds of bragging.
Lu Ning held his phone and quickly replied a few more sentences. The other side also replied quickly. However, the contents of the letter made his expression turn even more unsightly. He seemed to have thought of some bad possibilities.
Sizzle …
Unknowingly, his free hand was clenched so tightly that his nails almost pierced into his flesh.
"Daddy!" Zhou Bao's delicate voice pulled him back from his daze.
Lu Ning quickly got up to greet him. He looked at his adoptive father, Father Zhou, who had just come home from work.
"Did you have fun these few days? I think your friend Liu is a decent person. If Zhou Bao wants, you can get in touch with him. But take care to protect yourself at all times. "
Father Zhou had always been an open-minded person.
"Dream on! Him?" Zhou Xuan said arrogantly. "I'm still young, I don't want to think about personal matters!"
"If you have good resources, you can reserve them for now. Otherwise, it won't be so easy to find such a good spare tire in the future."
"Oh, Dad, what are you talking about? I don't want to get into trouble so soon. "
The father and daughter chatted happily on the side.
Lu Ning sat at the side. He looked calm on the surface, but his heart was in a different place.
Until the next morning, when Liu Chenyun and her sister were about to visit, Lu Ning was still in a daze.
Zhou Bao vaguely felt that something was wrong. After breakfast, he pushed open the door and walked into his brother's bedroom.
"Brother, are you alright?"
Lu Ning's back was facing him as he sat on the bed with his phone in his hand. The light from the screen made his upper body look pale.
The curtains in the bedroom were tightly drawn, not letting in any light from the outside. It was dark and quiet.
"I'm fine … it's just that … some things will come," he murmured.
Recalling the contents of the text message, he felt like a knife was stabbing into his heart. It was hard to make a decision.
Last night, he had used his own method to thoroughly verify the authenticity of the text message.
Now, it was time for him to make a decision.
"Zhou Bao," he suddenly called in a low voice.
"Yes?" Zhou Bao looked at his brother in confusion. He felt that there was something wrong with him today.
"Do you love me?" Lu Ning suddenly asked.
"Of course. What's wrong, brother? Who bullied you? I'll beat him up for you! "Zhou Bao had been the leader of his age since he was in third grade, and protecting his brother was a common thing.
"It's nothing …" Lu Ning was silent for a moment. "It's just …"
He didn't say it in the end, and just fell silent again.
…
…
"Did you find him?" Lu Sheng looked across the fence at the rushing river in the distance. The setting sun shone on the water like the most beautiful ruby shards.
"Yes, we've already started to contact him according to your instructions," a local cadre of Blue Starlight beside him replied in a low voice.
Although Blue Starlight's power was not considered strong in the Central Star Region of the Empire, and could even be considered weak, that was only relative to other large forces.
No matter how weak Blue Starlight was, it was still beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
The organization of this planet was managed by a cadre called Fu Bora.
Fu Bora belonged to another Cross Councilor. After that councilor knew that Lu Sheng had arrived in this star system, he generously allocated a lot of power to Lu Sheng as a temporary subordinate.
This was the way to treat a guest. Lu Sheng appreciated it and sent a letter of thanks to the councilor.
Then, he focused on sending people on this planet to search for Lu Ning's specific whereabouts.
The coordinates were locked on to a planet, so naturally, the scope was much smaller. In addition, there were clues and information found by the game company.
Soon, a young man called Zhou Ning entered Lu Sheng's field of vision.
However, Zhou Ning's situation made him feel a little complicated.
"How did he react?" Lu Sheng asked again.
"Very hesitant."
The subordinate's answer made Lu Sheng's eyes narrow slightly.
"Hesitant …"
He did not speak again.
After waiting for a long time, Lu Sheng finally gave an order that shocked his subordinates. It was as if he was murmuring to himself.
"Go. Let him decide for himself. "Lu Sheng finally made his decision.
"Understood …" The cadre beside him slowly retreated and silently got into the car and quickly left.
…
…
The road slowly passed by.
"Zhou Ning, when you grow up, what do you want to do? Are you really going to be a civil servant? "Lu Ning seemed to be a little serious as he casually asked.
"Maybe." Zhou Ning thought for a while and answered. She and Liu Ye each had a milk popsicle and were slowly sucking on it with their tongues. They were almost finished, but they were still sucking on it slowly with a stick.
"What about you? Xiao Ye? What kind of life do you want to live? "Lu Ning suddenly turned his gaze and asked Liu Ye who was beside him.
Liu Ye coldly snorted and turned her head away.
"I just want to be with my family. Do I still need to answer this question?" Thinking about how this person touched her butt, she instantly blushed and her cheeks were a little hot.
"Brother Ning, why are you suddenly asking about this??" Liu Chenyun who was driving looked at Lu Ning in surprise.
"I just have some thoughts." Lu Ning said lightly, "Sometimes, the more you have, the happier you will be. Don't you think so? "
Liu Chenyun was stunned and then nodded.
"What about you, Brother Ning? What do you want to do in the future? "
Lu Ning was silent as he looked at the scenery outside the car passing by at high speed. His heart was in a mess.
"Make money. The more money, the happier you will be. You can buy a lot of good food and drinks," Liu Ye suggested.
"If you don't want to do business, you can still be a civil servant? Stability and social status. "Liu Chenyun suggested.
But seeing that Lu Ning's expression did not change at all, he felt a little strange.
"Money means nothing to me …" Lu Ning said lightly, "I …"
Screech!
Suddenly, the car came to an emergency stop.
The four of them rushed forward at the same time. The airbags quickly popped open, firmly blocking their heads to prevent them from hitting the hard objects in the car.
On the road in front of them, there were four small black aircrafts parked.
There were already people coming down from the top one after another.
One of them was the handsome man Lu Ning saw at the cafe.
The man held a cigarette in his hand and looked at Lu Ning with an indifferent expression. Then, his eyes quickly moved from Lu Ning to Liu Chenyun and her sister.
"I hope I didn't scare you. The Zhou family stays, you two can go. "
Liu Chenyun's face was pale. He could almost identify the people in front of him at a glance.
"Gu Quandong! Are you crazy?! I'm right here. Come and touch me if you can! "
The man put out the cigarette with his finger and pointed at Zhou Bao.
"Young Master wants her. It's none of your business. "
"Get Gu Heng to talk to me!" Liu Chenyun opened the car door and said angrily.
"Last time, this woman slapped Young Master. We need to settle the score," the man said calmly.
Zhou Bao's face paled. She already knew who sent these people.
Screech.
Soon, another aircraft slowly landed, and the hatch opened. A handsome man with golden hair and a hint of evil in his eyes walked out of it.
But the way he looked at Zhou Bao and Liu Ye was not right. There was lust and greed in his eyes.
"What's wrong? Liu Chenyun, if you don't want to leave, you can ask your sister to stay and play with me. "The man smiled and slowly walked toward Liu Chenyun.
"Gu Heng! You're crazy! "Liu Chenyun shouted." Do you know what you're doing now?? "
"Of course I know. The Liu family is indeed not bad. They have some momentum. It's a bit troublesome to deal with. And then? "Gu Heng licked his lips.
Bang!
He walked closer and punched Liu Chenyun's abdomen with his right arm.
Liu Chenyun grunted and took a few steps back. She retched and coughed.
In the car.
Lu Ning was silent. His eyes seemed to be in a daze.
Zhou Bao's face was pale. She had never seen anything like this.
Liu Chenyun was still being beaten. Liu Ye wanted to help, but she was blocked several times. She was so scared that she started crying.
Zhou Bao was shocked and scared. She pulled Lu Ning and wanted to get out of the car, but Lu Ning did not move at all. She took out her phone to make a call, but there was no signal.
"Brother!!" Zhou Bao's cries rang in Lu Ning's ears.
But he was not in the mood to think about that.
Click.
Suddenly, he opened the car door and slowly got out.
The surrounding men of the Gu family were originally focused on Liu Chenyun and the two girls. They did not care about him at all.
But his sudden action of getting out of the car immediately made the people around him wary.
"Get back in the car!!" One of the men walked forward and reached out to grab Lu Ning's clothes.
"Giving up is courage."
Suddenly, a deep and powerful voice reverberated through the small road.
"But I don't want to give up." Lu Ning lowered his head, his hair covering his eyes.
"Sir will not allow you to make such a decision," the voice replied.
