Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared-Chapter 548: It’s Okay As Long As You’re Alright
Chapter 548: Chapter 548: It’s Okay As Long As You’re Alright
After ten minutes, the outcome was clear. Hai, leaning against the wall with dread in his eyes, stared at Gu Fan, who was kneeling on the ground, unable to get up.
If compared in ordinary people’s combat level, and excluding big bosses, Hai was slightly stronger than Su Hui while Su Hui was much stronger than Gu Fan.
However, Gu Fan was so outraged this time that he beat Hai until he started bleeding from his nose. Gu Fan’s strength now wasn’t inferior to Su Hui’s by much.
Obviously, Gu Fan was more severely injured. His face was swollen, and his whole body was in pain. It felt like his bones were about to fall apart.
Hai held his arm that almost got broken by Gu Fan and said seriously, "Your parents are not in danger, and you don’t have to risk your life for it."
"I knew it was you guys, but why, why? We never crossed each other’s paths. Why did you have to provoke me?" Gu Fan was furious, but no matter how angry he was, he had exhausted his strength, his legs were injured by Hai, he couldn’t stand up.
Leng Le said, "Many things cannot be explained in a few words. Go back, Gu Fan, you won’t gain anything here."
"If Gu Fan is not your match, how about adding me?" A faint voice and determined footsteps echoed as Lin Xi walked into the Elite Club, intimidating everyone with her fierce eyes.
Hai and Leng Le frowned immediately on high alert; they were unsure if they could handle Lin Xi.
However, Lin Xi ignored everyone else and directly went to Gu Fan, healing his injuries with magic. This allowed Gu Fan, now standing as if nothing happened, to glare at Hai and Leng Le immediately.
Just when Hai and Leng Le thought that the matter wouldn’t just end there, Gu Fan suddenly shifted his gaze and left with Lin Xi.
"Really? Did we just let them off that easily?" Lin Xi was a bit surprised. She just saw Gu Fan’s murderous look.
Gu Fan calmly replied, "Earlier, I was too angry and didn’t consider the consequences. The mobster injured my parents, and I caused trouble on the mobster’s territory. Even though I feel wronged, we better stop here. After all, my parents are not in critical condition. The mobster was merciful and sent my parents to the hospital."
Lin Xi nodded, "I get it. You’re afraid to provoke the mobster. If that happens, your parents won’t just get injured next time."
"Exactly, my parents’ safety is my priority, and even if I want to get even, I will only do so when I am certain that the mobster will no longer pose a threat." Even though Gu Fan had calmed down, he was still angry.
"Don’t worry, I’ll definitely help you. I’ll go to the hospital with you now to treat your parents." Lin Xi received a call from Gu Ling and found out about the situation. From Gu Ling’s description, she guessed why Gu Fan was so furious, so she immediately came to support Gu Fan.
Afterward, Gu Fan and Lin Xi arrived at the hospital where Su Hui had been waiting anxiously. Seeing Gu Fan return unscathed, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What did you do? Don’t tell me you did something foolish." frёeωebɳovel.com
"I’m sorry. I let the matter get to me and apologized for my hotheadedness," Gu Fan apologized, realizing that he had worried Su Hui.
"I understand your feelings. If I were you, I would’ve done the same thing." Su Hui’s words reassured Gu Fan, he felt lucky to have a friend who was able to understand and support him.
Whether to involve the police was another issue, Su Hui manually offered to conduct a secret investigation because it was still unclear what Gu Fan’s parents were involved in.
Lin Xi also pointed out that the investigation can only be secret because any digging would not benefit anyone and might reveal the secret that she was the reincarnation of Queen Qianye.
Gu Fan knew the facts were indeed so. To some extent, Gu Fan, Lin Xi, the mob boss, and Qian Feng shared common interests. They all had secrets that couldn’t be made public. Hence, their gratitude, resentment, and problems could only be settled privately.
Without saying much more, Lin Xi used her magic to awaken Gu Chuanshan and Mei Fang from their unconscious state.
Seeing her parents awake, Gu Ling was overjoyed, "Large sister-in-law, you sure know how to handle things. My brother made the right choice in seeking you out."
Everyone grinned and grimaced at her comment during such a time. Gu Ling truly was...
Awake and bewildered, Gu Chuanshan and Mei Fang looked around seeing the series of questioning glances from Gu Fan, Gu Ling, Su Hui, and Lin Xi. Gu Chuanshan asked, "Gu Fan, where are we? Is this a hospital? How did we end up here?"
Gu Fan replied, "You boarded the Lengbing Ocean Company’s ship and were attacked by pirates. You both were injured and passed out. Later, you were brought to the hospital. Don’t you remember any of this?"
"Pirates?" Confused, Gu Chuanshan soon nodded in agreement, "Yes, we were attacked by pirates. It was indeed very dangerous."
"Really?" Gu Fan narrowed his eyes in disbelief, "Dad, according to the people who brought you here, the sea was rough at the time, the ship was rocking hard, and you and mom were hit by goods."
Understanding that he fell for Gu Fan’s trap, Gu Chuanshan was slightly disturbed.
Gu Fan continued to press him, "Dad, what actually happened? Did you encounter pirates or did the goods hit your head?"
"I don’t know. My head is still spinning. I don’t remember what happened." Gu Chuanshan played dumb, leaving Gu Fan with no option but to say, "Then, Dad, we’ll call the police and let them handle it."
Upon hearing that, Gu Chuanshan panicked, "No, no, there’s no need to bother the police with this. They’re very busy."
Su Hui immediately intervened, "No, my principle is to serve the people no matter how busy I am. If you encountered any difficulties, you can talk to me."
"Well..." Gu Chuanshan naturally knew about Su Hui’s profession and began to feel the pressure as Gu Fan closed in on him.
Gufan closed the door and impatiently said, "Enough, Dad. Stop pretending, will you? I’ll also quit pretending. Ok? I know all about the secret of the old house, the Destiny Stone, and the vein of fate. Why are you still hiding things from me when the other five households know? Had you told me sooner, today’s incident might not have occurred. If I hadn’t investigated it myself, how much longer were you planning to keep this from me? For my whole life?"
