I became the God Brother of the Regent King after Transmigration!-Chapter 61 - 60: Stop Running—I Know Where You Live

Chapter 61: Chapter 60: Stop Running—I Know Where You Live

After a while, the porridge at the distribution point was about to be finished, but the little girl still stood there holding the porridge Gu Lan had given her.

You’er noticed there were no adults around the little girl, and her clothes were very shabby, causing him to feel compassionate. He asked, "Little girl, what’s your name? Where’s your brother?"

The little girl shook her head, "My name is Wei Lan, but you can call me Wei Nannan. My brother is very busy, he has a lot of things to do, and today is not his day off, so he’s not home."

"What about your other brother?"

"I don’t know that brother. He just gives Nannan bitter candies, and then I don’t have a fever anymore."

"Then after you finish your porridge, you should go home quickly. Are you full? Do you want another bowl from sister?"

The little girl nodded earnestly, "I’m full."

This child looked quite cute, just a bit face-focused, as she only talked to Gu Lan, You’er, and Zijin, completely ignoring Uncle Li, who was kindly smiling, making him feel very hurt.

Zijin squatted down and smiled gently, "Where do you live? Sister will have someone send you home."

"I live at Yong’an Street East 17th Line."

You’er thought for a moment and said, "Young Master, the 17th Line over there is one of the poorer residential areas in the Capital City."

Gu Lan raised an eyebrow and nonchalantly said, "Oh, then your home must have been washed away by the flood, right?"

The little girl, who originally came happily to get porridge, suddenly remembered that her home was indeed flooded a couple of days ago, and the door plaque had fallen off.

In the next moment, the little girl burst into tears with a "Wah" sound.

Young Master Gu jumped up innocently, covering his ears and hiding behind Zijin, trying hard to defend himself, "It’s not my fault, she cried by herself, it has nothing to do with me!"

As he spoke, Young Master took out some candied fruit from his pocket, "Stop crying, it’s so noisy."

Little kids are really terrifying, those who can cry loudly are even more terrifying! Rong Yunhao is still the cute one!

Zijin: ...

"Nannan, come here!" At this point, a deep male voice sounded.

Gu Lan followed the sound and saw a tall man dressed in a black short shirt appear not far away.

Before Gu Lan could think deeply, the little girl had already rushed over crying, her nose bubbling with snot, her voice muffled:

"Brother Yuan!"

Gu Lan spread his hands, showing the candied fruit he used to coax the child, "Well... I didn’t mean to make your sister cry."

The man directly picked up the little girl, looked at Gu Lan, and revealed a serious and solemn face.

The little girl wasn’t lying; her brother was indeed very handsome.

His sword-like brows and starry eyes, a high nose bridge, and sharp and rugged features, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, a tall and upright figure.

His expression was cold and desolate, carrying an air of evil qi as he walked, his thin lips lightly pressed like the edge of a sword, and he seemed somewhat displeased because Gu Lan made his sister cry.

"Boo hoo, brother why are you here," the little girl cried while talking, "our house was washed away by the flood, Nannan is going to starve to death."

The man held the child in his arms tightly, his gaze falling on the porridge in her hands.

With so much left, it’s unclear how the idea of starving arose.

He lifted his eyes to glance at Gu Lan, suddenly remembered his own troubles, then frowned, turned, and left.

"What a strange person," You’er said curiously.

Gu Lan’s eyes showed a hint of suspicion. She found this man oddly familiar, but for a moment, couldn’t remember where she’d seen him before.

After two consecutive days of porridge distribution, on the second day, the little girl came again. This time, she took two bowls, and Gu Lan filled both for her.

But later that day, her brother did not come to pick her up to go home.

Late at night, heavy rain started again.

Step Lotus Hall was engulfed in the roaring wind and rain, the distant bamboo forest was rustling under the storm, accompanied by a few muffled thunders covering the sound of stealthy and hidden footsteps.

"Swish—"

A swift black shadow with the cold rain silently flipped into Gu Lan’s bedroom in Step Lotus Hall.

The figure was light as a swan goose, yet incredibly fast.

Behind him followed six similarly masked and hat-wearing assassins, scattering in different directions. One, in a leading position, lowered his voice and said:

"Yuan, I’ve already drugged the maids and servants in the side room. You and Ming take action, we’ll cover from outside. If anything goes wrong, leave immediately. The Madam wouldn’t want anything to happen to you!"

The shadow, who was Yuan, adjusted his mask to reveal only a pair of amber eyes, and said in a deep voice, "I’ve said before, after this job, I’m done with the Qian Family."

"The Madam is your lifesaver!"

Yuan said no more. He skillfully crossed the eaves, but halfway through, suddenly frowned.
