Immortal Emperor's Life As A Son-in-law

The words Ghost Cruel had said to Xiao Chen before his death were still fresh in Xiao Chen's mind.    

    

Something that even the Sly Devil Sect would remember, he wouldn't be able to lie to himself if he said that he wasn't interested in it at all.    

    

Therefore, after a simple dinner, Xiao Chen and Gu Muwan rushed to the Gu residence.    

    

"Hu." When they entered the house, they saw Yi Jie sitting on the sofa with her head propped up. Gu Muwan heaved a sigh of relief.    

    

But when she swept her left and right, she did not find any traces of her father and older brother. When she took a closer look, her mother's face was also filled with melancholy.    

    

Gu Muwan's breath that was relieved suddenly lifted up again and she whispered, "Mom, where is brother and dad?"    

    

When she heard this, Yi Jie turned her gaze towards Xiao Chen. Her brows sank and she sighed, but did not immediately open her mouth to speak.    

    

Gu Muwan immediately became nervous when she saw this. She urgently said, "Did something happen?"    

    

"Oh, no, it's nothing!" She avoided her gaze and said in a perfunctory tone.    

    

Gu Muwan naturally did not listen to her evasion and quickly took two steps forward. She landed in front of Yi Jie and said deeply, "Mom!"    

    

"Don't worry, your brother is fine. He only suffered a small injury. I have already gone to take a look during the day. "    

    

Facing her daughter's angry gaze, Yi Jie's heart shrank but her face revealed a bitter smile.    

    

"Nothing to do with me..." Opening her mouth, she wanted to explain to Gu Muwan.    

    

Yi Jie also knew that because of her previous collusion with Ghost Cruel, Gu Muwan already had some prejudice against her.    

    

But Gu Muwan did not wait for her to finish speaking and interrupted her. Her eyes were calm and her tone became more distant.    

    

"Which hospital?"    

    

Seeing her daughter's sudden cooling expression, Yi Jie's face turned bitter and finally said the address.    

    

Without saying anything more to her mother, Gu Muwan pulled Xiao Chen's arm and immediately ran out the door.    

    

Only when the door was closed did Gu Muwan raise her hand to rub her chest.    

    

"Are you guys alright?"    

    

"I'm fine! I'm sorry Big Brother Xiao, I still need you to accompany me for a while." Gu Muwan forced out a smile.    

    

However, when that smile fell into Xiao Chen's eyes, he could not tell that it was a smile. It was almost like crying.    

    

However, Gu Muwan did not say much to him. Xiao Chen naturally did not know much about the Gu family's matters.    

    

After leaving the villa, the two of them immediately rushed to the hospital. However, before they reached the ward, they heard the doctors and nurses quarreling.    

    

"Didn't I ask you to keep an eye on him? His wound has just been stitched up, how can you let him get off the bed and run around?"    

    

"I'm sorry, Doctor Wei. We, too, didn't expect him to suddenly slip out."    

    

"You're still trying to find an excuse for me? What are you waiting for? Hurry up and find someone for me!"    

    

After listening to this conversation, Xiao Chen and Wang Yao had already rushed to the door of the ward.    

    

They looked at the doctor who spluttered and had a depressed look on his face. Then they looked at the nurses who had their heads buried in front of the doctor. It was good for Xiao Chen too. No matter what, Gu Muwan could not help but frown.    

    

When she saw the empty hospital bed, Gu Muwan suddenly realized something and immediately rushed in.    

    

"Miss Gu, why did you return it at this time and come to the hospital?"    

    

When he saw Gu Muwan, Doctor Wei's eyes shrank and the corners of his mouth also quietly added a touch of bitterness.    

    

"Where is my brother?"    

    

"That, that..." Doctor Wei opened his mouth, but he felt so guilty that he could not continue.    

    

"Calm down first!" Seeing Gu Muwan's imposing manner, Xiao Chen could not help but shake his head and advise in a low voice.    

    

As he spoke, Xiao Chen also turned to Doctor Wei's direction and tried his best to speak in a gentle voice, "Since you are Zhao Nian's attending physician, you must know his condition very well. Is it serious?"    

    

"Yes!" Doctor Wei nodded. He took the medical history book and explained it to Xiao Chen and Xiao Chen.    

    

One of his ribs was fractured, the left elbow was dislocated, and it was suspected to be a concussion.    

    

As for the broken teeth and five or six bruises on his body, it was needless to say.    

    

The more she heard, the uglier Gu Muwan's expression became, but Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief.    

    

These were all external injuries, and Gu Zhaonian was still alive. At least, this indicated that this wasn't the doing of those bastards from the Sly Devil Sect.    

    

"Do you know how he got injured?"    

    

"This..." Doctor Wei's brows furrowed. He was clearly in a difficult position and hesitant.    

    

"Speak!"    

    

"I heard that there was a conflict with Young Master Liang and the others."    

    

"Young Liang?" Xiao Chen muttered to himself and looked at Gu Muwan suspiciously. After all, he had no impression of Liang Shao.    

    

Gu Muwan's eyes focused when she heard him. The worry on her face became even more intense. She only opened her mouth softly when she noticed Xiao Chen's gaze.    

    

"It's Liang Tong. He was one of the guys that was thrown out at my birthday banquet."    

    

"Does this mean that this matter has something to do with me?" Xiao Chen's face suddenly turned cold.    

    

Without saying anything more to Doctor Wei, Xiao Chen turned his head around and called Jiang Loong as soon as he left the ward.    

    

"Sir, it's already so late and you still haven't rested? If you have any instructions, please give them to me!"    

    

"Liang Tong, do you know? Find out where that kid is." Xiao Chen immediately ordered.    

    

After he hung up the phone, he turned to Gu Muwan and said gently, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."    

    

Gu Muwan frowned. She was not comforted by Xiao Chen's words at all. She rubbed her fingers and hurried out.    

    

Xiao Chen did not stop her.    

    

He knew that if she did not do something at this time, she would only feel more uneasy, so he just stayed by her side.    

    

Fortunately, Jiang Loong's phone call did not take long before it came in.    

    

Receiving the call, Xiao Chen immediately turned the steering wheel and headed straight to the north city's "Nightless City."    

    

At this moment, in the Nightless City, the flashing neon lights seemed to have frozen.    

    

The crowd at the center of the dance floor had already stopped moving. All of them curled their lips and looked at the platform in the middle of the area.    

    

The only VIP seat in the hall.    

    

At this moment, the wine on the VIP seat had long been overturned.    

    

The guests on the ordinary seats below took a tissue to wipe their lapels in disgust.    

    

However, looking at the few figures lying on the ground with swollen faces, then, they looked at the figures sitting on the sofa with vicious expressions on their faces. No one dared to complain. They threw away the tissue and quietly moved their bodies backward.    

    

At this moment, a man stood up from the seat above them. With a sneer, he slowly landed in front of Gu Zhaonian, who was still lying on the platform. He said mockingly, "Gu Zhaonian, it seems like the lesson I taught you last time was not enough!"    

    

"You should have chosen a place to behave atrociously. Why don't you have the slightest eyesight to see these pair of eyes?"    

    

As he spoke, the man grabbed Gu Zhaonian's hair and gave him two slaps on the face.    

    

"Liang Tong, I'm going to kill you!" Gu Zhaonian stretched his neck and shouted with his bloody mouth.    

    

"You think you can get these trash?" Liang Tong disdainfully glanced at the few people who were also standing on the ground. "Why don't you take a good piss and take a good look at your current appearance! What can you use to kill me?"
