However, after hearing what he said, Du Yue could not help but be curious about who the shooter was. Just as everyone was puzzled and did not dare to act rashly, a group of people walked out from the thick fog. Just by looking at their uniform and the guns at their waists, one could tell that they were definitely not ordinary people. After seeing who they were, Guo Deyou, who was originally extremely arrogant, instantly cowered. He took two steps back and smiled fawningly. “It’s a small misunderstanding. It’s really a small misunderstanding! My subordinates caused trouble and I’ve already asked them to apologize. I didn’t have any other intentions when I came here with them. I just thought that what we did previously was indeed a little too much, so I brought some gifts and wanted to personally apologize to them again.”
After Guo Deyou finished speaking, he did not receive any response. He could not help but feel his scalp go numb. When he turned around and saw that the people he brought had all hidden far away, he became even angrier. “What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and take out the apology gifts from the cars. Hurry up!”
After Guo Deyou roared, the people behind him finally stopped standing there. After hurriedly responding a few times, they opened the trunks of several cars and moved out all the things inside. There were quite a few things. They were all packed in boxes or big bags. They were moved to Du Yue’s car. In a short while, the things had piled up into a small mountain. Guo Deyou watched the others move things from the side while panting heavily. He told them to take out the things, but he did not tell these fools to take out everything!
How did he choose such a bunch of idiots to work for him?! However, they had already taken out the items, and there were people staring at them with guns. Even if Guo Deyou was reluctant, there was nothing he could do. Although it was painful to lose so many things for nothing, Guo Deyou still smiled a few times in a flattering manner. He brought his men into their cars and fled in a panic. Why did he not resist? He knew which was stronger, a fist or a gun!
No matter how nimble they were, how could they catch up to the speed of bullets?! They were unlucky this time. There would be plenty of time in the future. Sooner or later, he would get back what he had lost today with interest! Guo Deyou fled with his men. Among the group of people not far away, there was a man with the strongest physique. He walked toward Du Yue and the others step by step.
In the car, Xia Ju leaned forward and asked in puzzlement, “Do you know them? Why are they helping us?”
Du Yue had been staring at the people outside, and when she heard Xia Ju’s question, she slowly shook her head. “I know them, but we’re not close.”
Xia Ju did not reply. Instead, she looked at Du Yue teasingly. Even so, Du Yue could understand Xia Ju’s thoughts.
Xia Ju was not the only one who would let her imagination run wild. Even she herself felt a little puzzled. The person walking toward them was none other than Guan Sheng. Before this, Du Yue had never thought that she would meet someone she had met before in a strange place. First, it was Xia Zhixing, then it was Guan Sheng. According to this development, perhaps she and He Xing would go to a few more places and meet Yu Xinya and Wan Dapeng!
Du Yue did not continue to think about it. Instead, she got out of the car with He Xing. Xia Ju’s face was full of gossip. At this time, she definitely had to follow them to take a look. Without needing Du Yue and He Xing to call her, she quickly followed.
Du Yue and He Xing walked to the front of the car, and Guan Sheng happened to be in front of them. After looking at each other, Guan Sheng spoke first, “Have you seen Xia Zhixing?”
Du Yue was confused. Why would Guan Sheng suddenly ask them about Xia Zhixing’s whereabouts? Guan Sheng knew that they did not have any interactions with Xia Zhixing. Du Yue came back to her senses and looked at Guan Sheng. “Why are you asking us about her?”
Du Yue was a little puzzled. Why did Guan Sheng ask them about Xia Zhixing’s whereabouts? Perhaps she could also find out from Guan Sheng why Xia Zhixing had determined that she and He Xing were the ones who killed the celestial lord. At the thought of this, Du Yue’s heart beat faster than before. However, on the surface, Du Yue still looked calm. Guan Sheng furrowed his brows tightly as if someone owed him a million yuan. “You don’t have to try to trick me.”
Hearing Guan Sheng’s words, Du Yue sighed silently in her heart. Guan Sheng was still smart. Just as she was feeling disappointed that she could not get anything out of him, Guan Sheng spoke again, “If you want to know, you have to ask her yourself. As for today’s matter, it was just a coincidence. You don’t have to thank me..”
