Chapter 270: Daytime Pursuit
The night is very cold, and my eyes feel cold just by looking at it.

Gu Baozhu retracted her wandering eyes and stared at the buttons on Gu Yuan's chest, as if she was looking at a work of art.

It's hard to get anything back from Jiang Yan today. He's not very hands-on when it comes to serious matters... Gu Baozhu felt regretful.

Gu Yuan's palm was suspended above Gu Baozhu's head. Sensing Gu Baozhu's shrinking reaction, his palm was reluctant to fall.

There was some dew on Baozhu's hair. Her soft hair was wet and pressed together. If she didn't take care of it in time, she might catch a cold. Not only that, her eyes were also a little red, probably because she stayed up late. The color of her lips was also the same. It had obviously improved a lot before, but now it turned into the color of paper. Now because she was not sure about his love, she opened her eyes slightly and looked very worried.

What are you worried about? Are you worried that you will punish her?
Leaving school in the middle of the night is really dangerous, she needs to change her behavior. But as long as she is willing to come back, she is a good child, and love will forgive everything. Thinking of this, Gu Yuan felt that his anger had dissipated a lot, and he was just annoyed by Gu Baozhu's defense against him.

It shouldn't be like this, it can't be like this, and you can't treat him like this...

Gu Yuan placed the towel over Gu Baozhu's head and rubbed it gently. The hair made a rustling sound due to the friction. His voice seemed calm and gentle in this sound. "Baozhu, you can tell me anything. I will make the best choice for you, but don't do it secretly by yourself. It will be very dangerous."

Gu Baozhu's eyes widened, then she nodded.

Gu Yuan smiled, held Gu Baozhu's head, rubbed his cheek against hers, and then pressed his forehead against hers. The familiar warmth made him feel at ease. He then distanced himself from her and gently warned her, "Freedom and security are not in conflict. I want you to understand this. I saw that you didn't read the book I gave you before, right? You should have read it."

Gu Baozhu: “…” I’m sorry, I feel childish. Just like the teenage mode you set, I don’t like watching Unicorn Adventures, just like you don’t like children to really go on adventures.

Her tongue trembled slightly, but she still said, "There is no such ideal situation. A person cannot have both security and freedom at the same time. I want to gain security through my own abilities. This is the freedom I want."

Gu Yuan's eyes were filled with confusion, entanglement and regret for a moment. He obviously couldn't understand Gu Baozhu's tongue twister, but he still gave a good answer, "You don't have to be so independent."

Gu Baozhu exhaled, with a bit more stubbornness on her face, "I want to prove to my fifth brother that I am no worse than him, and I also want to prove to you that I am a very capable child."

Gu Yuan's eyes curved with great joy, and Gu Baozhu also showed admiration and determination when she saw Gu Yuan pass this hurdle.

"Well, you are the best kid, no need to prove it. It's late, go take a shower and go to bed. You have to go to school tomorrow, don't forget." Gu Yuan pushed Gu Baozhu, and Gu Baozhu walked towards the bathroom obediently.

Gu Yuan was going to process some documents in the living room, but he couldn't help but feel tired and his eyelids kept drooping. So he got up and took out a book from the bookshelf to read, and then he forced himself to watch Gu Baozhu wash up and return to the bedroom. The light in the bedroom was quickly turned off.

He then got up, washed, and returned to his room to rest.

Seeing that the lights in the living room were turned off, Gu Baozhu finally got out of bed and checked the messages sent from Pei Ze's phone.

[Unnamed]: The phone is in your hands now, Gu Baozhu.

[Unnamed]: You really need a normal mobile phone, so this one is for you. You can also continue to use my mobile phone number.

[Unnamed]: I didn't expect you to call Jiang Yan. Have you stepped on his candy before? If it wasn't me, I would be very sad.
Gu Baozhu: "..." I stepped on his head! Be sad, what does it have to do with me?

[Unnamed]: We didn't have as many people as him this time, so we were at a disadvantage. I can see that you don't want to be friends with him, and you must hate him very much. If you beg me, I can help you get rid of him. This time I didn't know you had claustrophobia, otherwise I wouldn't let you get on the elevator, and of course I won't let you get on the elevator in the future.

[Xie Chen]: I heard you're back in Jiangcheng? I'm free, can we get together? Gu Baozhu frowned and looked at the text message from Xie Chen. Xie Chen also knew Pei Ze? This might make more sense now.

Xie Chen knew Pei Ze, so Xie Chen might know that Pei Ze was looking for her. But Pei Ze had not made any "recognition" move before, which shows that he played Harry very well. What was the reason that made Pei Ze suddenly see through Harry's true identity and realize Gu Baozhu before?

She first denied Xie Chen's revelation. Xie Chen would not do this, otherwise he would not have reminded her. Besides, it was unknown who had reported her today. In any case, it was either Jiang Yan or Pei Ze...

[Unnamed]: See you tomorrow at the usual place. I have something to tell you. Of course, you may not see this message, but I am still letting you know as a courtesy. If you don't come, I will expose you.

Ahhh, I'm so annoyed. I shouldn't have stolen if I had known. I won't be able to climb over the wall tomorrow anyway. It's even a fucking question whether I can continue to go to school!

Wait, if Pei Ze meant that he would go to the wall to see her tomorrow, then does that mean he didn't know that he had been reported, and naturally there would be no suspicion of reporting...

Then it could only be Jiang Yan!

Gu Baozhu scratched his head angrily, picked up his mobile phone and replied to several text messages urging him to complete the orders, promising that he would complete them as soon as possible. Then he clicked on Jiang Yan's text message interface. Thinking of Jiang Yan's new task with high pay, he closed the interface again and urged himself to close his eyes and go to sleep.

There is no rush. You can wait until the fight breaks out, or you can take the opportunity to increase the stakes. Acting impulsively will only lead to bad things. Smart people should be good at taking advantage of disadvantages. Gu Baozhu tried to comfort herself and fell into a deep sleep.

Early in the morning, Gu Yuan prepared breakfast and called Gu Baozhu to get up and eat.

Gu Ping had already lazily sat down at the edge of the dining table, looking at Gu Baozhu's curious yet expected expression, "I didn't expect you to give up so soon. I thought you could last at least half a year."

Gu An glanced at Gu Baozhu, clenched the cutlery in his hand, and said nothing.

"Did something happen at school?" Gu Lan helped bring the plates and asked with concern.

"Nothing," Gu Baozhu lowered her head to eat without raising her head, "I will go back to school today."

"Oh," Gu Lan nodded. This time it should be just a short trip home.

“……” After all, he shouldn’t be expelled for just climbing over the wall. Judging from Gu Yuan’s expression, he should stay there before finding the next school.

Gu Baozhu finished her meal quickly. Despite Gu Yuan's constant urging, she gritted her teeth and said that she was in a bad mood and didn't want to eat. Then she left the table and went to school with Gu Yuan to review her mistakes after the meal.

"Don't be afraid, second brother is here." Gu Yuan clenched Gu Baozhu's hand and said reassuringly with curved eyes.

Gu Baozhu noticed that he was in a good mood, nodded, and looked forward.

Someone outside the office was waving at her vigorously, her fluffy curly hair trembling like a dark cloud floating in the air.

Damn it! Chasing the murderer in broad daylight?! Gu Baozhu opened her eyes wide.

Uh, one update today, and I'll try to update more tomorrow. (Running away)
