Lin Che said,
That’s enough. Come here first, Niannian.


Gu Shinian continued standing there unmoving.

At the side, Gu Jingze asked,
Don’t you want to see how Yunyun and her father are getting along? Let’s go. We can go and take a look right now.


Gu Shinian looked up.

Gu Jingze said,
Come on. The new year will arrive soon.



Gu Shinian pursed his lips in thought. At last, he moved his little head and nodded in agreement.

Gu Shinian swiftly instructed his underlings to pack up.

Gu Jingze also glanced at the people around them. Every single one of the Gu family’s bodyguards left as well.

Only then did the bodyguards at the club and Black Hawk’s men who were surrounding the area only let out a sigh of relief. They watched Gu Shinian walk to Gu Jingze and Lin Che. He only looked a little like a child when Lin Che carried him and started reprimanding him.

The family of three left. After a night of tumult at the club, the club slowly regained its atmosphere. The people who had been standing guard all went home for New Year’s Eve with their hearts at ease as well.

But everyone was still sighing in admiration at the way the wealthy people educated their children. Their child came directly for an actual showdown and nearly caused a fight. The effectiveness of their early education was so shocking.

However, their child had caused such a ruckus just by rebelliously running away from home. It was a total eye-opener as well.

When it came to children from ordinary households, the matter would end after they simply got into a fight. But a child from the Gu family came directly to engage in a gang fight. This resembled a scene in a blockbuster movie. It was definitely unforgettable.

At Mu Feiran’s house.


Gu Jingze and Lin Che brought Gu Shinian to the entrance. They looked inside. The scene of the family of three was so delightful.

Mu Feiran was making dumplings. Beside her, Black Hawk and Yunyun were playing together. Yunyun was smiling so happily that her eyes had curved into slits.

While watching, Gu Shinian instinctively smiled slightly.

However, just then, Mu Feiran looked up and saw the people outside.

Immediately, she was a little surprised. She quickly put down the noodles in her hands and went to open the door.


Lin Che, Mr. Gu, and little Niannian, why are you all here?


Yunyun ran out in an instant as well. When she saw Niannian, she happily shouted,
Brother Niannian, you’re here too. I was still wondering why you weren’t spending New Year’s Eve with us.


Gu Shinian patted Yunyun’s little head.

Black Hawk appeared from the back as well.

Gu Jingze glanced inside.
We came to take a look.



Lin Che also lifted her head, looked inside, and said,
Yes. I was thinking that we usually celebrate together. I felt very unaccustomed at the fact that you were celebrating on your own.


Mu Feiran smiled warmly, hugged Lin Che, and said,
I know that all of you are worried about me but it’s really nothing. Besides… Mr. Mo is here.


She looked at Mo Jinyan beside her.

Mo Jinyan looked at the three of them.
What should I do now? I definitely didn’t make enough dumplings for you to eat.


Gu Jingze said,
Forget it. We still have to go to the Gu residence to celebrate the New Year.


The moment she heard that they were about to leave, Yunyun was extremely reluctant. She tugged at Niannian and said,
Brother Niannian, are you going to leave? But the countdown is starting very soon.


Niannian looked at Yunyun. He felt very reluctant to leave too. From a young age, the two children had been like twins. Wherever they went, they went in a pair. They celebrated the new year together too. They were extremely unhappy as it was their first time being apart.

Lin Che looked at the two children. She did not know whether it was her emotional sensitivity during pregnancy that was causing her heart to ache terribly as she looked at them.

Gu Jingze looked down at the tender emotion in Lin Che’s eyes. Then, he looked up and said,
Come to the Gu residence with us and celebrate the new year.


Mu Feiran looked at Gu Jingze in surprise.


Lin Che was a little surprised too.
Ah. Is that okay?


Gu Jingze said,
There’s nothing wrong with that. Anyway, we celebrate events just for fun. Isn’t it great to have everyone gather together?


Black Hawk said,
There’s no need to go to such trouble.


Gu Jingze said,
You have nothing much to worry about either. Since you’re Lin Che’s older brother, Niannian’s uncle, of course, it’s within reason for you to go.


Black Hawk’s eyes met Lin Che’s. They both expressed some helplessness at their current identities.

Gu Shinian pulled Yunyun along.
Come on. Let’s go together then. There are so many fun things there. I can take you with me and we can play together.


Yunyun was still an obedient child. She looked up to see what her mother was thinking.

However, Lin Che had already pulled Mu Feiran towards her.
Alright. Let’s stop wasting time. Come on. If we still don’t leave, it’s going to be the new year already.

But…



Lin Che said,
It’s fine. There are so many people there today. We can look for a place to celebrate on our own. We can even watch the fireworks. We won’t have to bother with other people then. Anyway, no one will bother us either. There are so many people and no one knows anyone.


Mu Feiran had no choice. She saw that Yunyun was indeed reluctant for Niannian to leave. For the sake of the two children, they could only agree.

Gu Jingze’s family left first. Thereafter, Black Hawk also headed there together with the mother and daughter.

They arrived at the old Gu residence in no time.

This place was indeed bustling with excitement. The numerous relatives of the Gu family were all here to celebrate the new year.

It was Mu Feiran’s very first time coming into the territory of an old and prominent family like this one. Now that she was here in the flesh, she felt that this place was truly formidable. The massive courtyard already seemed extraordinary.

On the other hand, Black Hawk did not think much of it. He followed them in while leading Yunyun by the hand. He tried his best to look after her every need.

Mu Feiran looked inside.
Thanks to Lin Che, I’ve finally managed to participate in celebrations held by one of the most prominent families.


Although Black Hawk did not care, he also had to admit that it was one of the oldest families in C Nation after all. Such families had more rules to follow and their affairs were very complicated as well. He looked at her and said,
Go in with me later. It’s chaotic outside. Don’t run off on your own.



Hn, okay.
She trailed behind Black Hawk. Although this was an unfamiliar place, she seemed to not feel any anxiety because someone was leading her.

After going in, Gu Jingze looked at Gu Shinian and asked him,
You still haven’t told me who exactly gave you those men.


Only then did it occur to Lin Che.


He’s right. Gu Shinian, quickly tell me the truth. What exactly happened today?


Gu Shinian’s face immediately stiffened.
We’re celebrating the new year. Don’t talk about these troubling matters…


Seeing that Gu Shinian was about to run away, Lin Che yanked him back swiftly.


Gu Shinian, this is no simple matter. You must tell me what exactly is going on.


At the back, Gu Jingze also said,
Even if you don’t say it, it’s only a matter of time before I find out the truth. Why don’t you just confess directly?


Gu Shinian stood there.
They’re… they’re… shadow guards…


Shadow guards?

Lin Che did not understand. She looked up at Gu Jingze.

Gu Jingze’s gaze hardened.
Did your grandfather give those shadow guards to you?

Grandfather… Gu Qigang?

Lin Che seemed to come to a sudden realization.

Had Gu Qigang given Gu Shinian these men?

Lin Che lifted her head and asked Gu Jingze,
Are these, are these people very formidable?


Gu Jingze was still staring at Gu Shinian. Upon hearing Lin Che’s question, he said lowly,
Shadow guards belong to an elite force under the Gu family. They’re specially trained to investigate various secret incidents and make their move in the dark. Do you think they’re formidable or not?
