“Mom, my hand hurts, and my head hurts. I wish I were three years old again, so you could carry me home!” Gu Ziyu sat by the flowerbed like a salty fish, looking like a frostbitten flower.

Gu Ci couldn’t help but stifle a laugh, “1 can still carry you home now!”

“No need for that!” Gu Ziyu said, “I still have some dignity!”

It would take about ten minutes to walk back home, so Gu Ci suggested, “How about Mom rent an electric scooter?”

“Sounds good, sounds good!”

Since the university’s campus was quite large, the school had partnered with a company to provide electric scooters on campus. You could scan a code and rent them for 4 yuan for half an hour, so there was no need to buy one.

Gu Ci rented one, and the mother and son rode the electric scooter back home. However, after just two minutes of riding, during the rush hour, they were stopped by a traffic policeman.

“Why?” Gu Ci asked.

“These electric scooters are not allowed to carry passengers, didn’t you know?” the traffic policeman explained.

“I didn’t know!” Gu Ci looked around the campus and saw many couples riding together.

“The child is so young, and you’re not wearing helmets. It’s very dangerous!” the traffic policeman pointed out.

Gu Ziyu sat numbly to the side, carrying a heavy school bag and gazing sadly at the sky at a 45-degree angle, looking very melancholic.

Gu Ci pointed ahead and said, “Our school is very close to home, just one kilometer. I’m riding very slowly, and…”

“You can’t have a wishful thinking mentality. This vehicle is not allowed to carry passengers, and you’re not wearing helmets. Moreover, you have a child with you. Even if you drive slowly, you can’t guarantee that others won’t collide with you!” the traffic policeman interrupted.

“Policeman, I was wrong, and I will seriously reflect on it,” Gu Ci said.

In the end, they were fined 100 yuan, and both Gu Ci and Gu Ziyu were stunned. They were really unlucky!

“Baby, if you say you’re with MSS, will you still be fined?”

Gu Ziyu asked numbly, “Let’s just pay the fine, even if it’s ten thousand.”

Gu Ci was speechless.

Gu Ziyu said expressionlessly, “If I claim that identity, they might think we’re crazy and send us to a mental hospital. Even if they verify our identity, they’ll just throw me in an office. 1 can’t afford to lose that face!”

“Baby, your idol baggage is quite heavy!” Gu Ci teased.

Gu Ziyu said, “Hmm!”

Gu Ci looked mutely at him.

Gu Ci jokingly said, “If you like Ji Chi so much, you should learn from him – be flexible, a little money for your pride isn’t important!”

Gu Ziyu chuckled and asked, “He’s a tsundere, he goes crazy, and he locks people up for a lifetime. Should 1 learn that too?”

Gu Ci thought for a moment and said, “Never mind, just stay away from him!”

Gu Ziyu burst into laughter, and the fatigue of the day was somewhat dispelled. The electric scooter was confiscated, but the traffic policeman returned it to the campus. Mother and son went home together in the evening sun.

Gu Ziyu had a whole day of exams tomorrow, and they were coming one after the other. Originally, the advisor had arranged two weeks for the exams, and they could even take them at night, but Gu Ziyu had made a dense exam schedule for himself, with exams throughout the entire week. Gu Ci looked at his shiny black hair and worried that he might start losing hair during his youth.

Lu Ze, on the other hand, was still a handsome old man without any signs of hair loss. This thing is genetic, so the baby should be fine!

While Gu Ziyu was in the middle of his studies, he received a call from Chen Liangdong, informing him about the assassination attempt on Lu Zhiyuan today. Gu Ziyu was somewhat surprised, “The Underground sent assassins?” “No evidence yet, but based on analysis, it should be them,” Chen Liangdong said. “Pei Qiuying’s surgery has ended, but she hasn’t regained consciousness. Our people have disguised themselves as nurses to get close to her and try to get more information.”

Gu Ziyu said, “The Central Hospital is a property of the Lu family. Wouldn’t it be too conspicuous to pose as nurses?”

“Don’t worry, we have it under control. There are so many doctors and nurses, not everyone will be scrutinized, and our people have nursing experience,” Chen Liangdong assured him. “In these two weeks, focus on your exams. Your advisors have said that you can work on projects independently next year.” “Alright!” Gu Ziyu felt that the exam week was already overwhelming. “Have you uncovered any secrets from the Underground Dark Web?”

“We’ve got a little lead, but it’s not easy to investigate further,” Chen Liangdong said. “We can confirm that it’s a secret organization within our system, but finding out who is in charge is tricky. Someone has already warned me not to delve too deep.”

Gu Ziyu’s heart sank. If even Chen Liangdong couldn’t get involved, it meant that this issue involved high-ranking individuals.

“Okay, I understand,” Gu Ziyu replied. He knew that this secret had hidden dangers. In every system, there were people vying for power, and there were no purely good or bad individuals. Their positions and the boundaries between good and bad differed.

In the previous life, Jiang Junlin had been hit and injured, never able to stand up again, imprisoned all along. This matter was too suspicious. In the previous life, he had little interaction with Jiang Junlin and didn’t know much about him, except that he was the CEO of Hualan Bank and had declined after the incident, further controlled by the Brown family.

However, he was not only the CEO of Hualan but also the master of the Underground Dark Web.

In the previous life, Lu Shijie and Gu Chuyun mainly relied on Black Hawk for support behind them, and all their confidence came from Black Hawk. After Chen Rushi’s death, they were under the control of the Brown family.

The Underground Dark Web had always been a trump card in Jiang Junlin’s hands. Now that he had been imprisoned, his mother had taken his place, issuing orders. The people within the system were still in hiding.

In the previous life, when Gu Chuyun executed her plan and took over Hualan Bank, it might have been her uncle’s trap all along. Even if there was an accident, like breaking his leg, her uncle’s personality was not the type to simply give up and fall into despair.

He was a strategic thinker with strong character. How could a broken leg defeat him? Moreover, it was just a broken leg, not a spinal injury. He couldn’t take care of himself in daily life, had to endure the humiliation of being taken care of by others, so her uncle wouldn’t have given up so easily.

Qin Wan was still a hidden piece on the chessboard. Her uncle had a loyal group of subordinates, so how did it come to the point where he would be tortured to death by Ji Chi? Unless… someone didn’t want her uncle alive and had control over him.

His vulnerability was the Jiang family!

In this life, her father was still alive, and he had just guessed his identity. Her uncle’s identity had always been kept secret, known only to internal personnel. Perhaps in the previous life, the power struggle within the Underground Dark Web made her uncle want to avoid it!

After talking to Chen Liangdong on the phone, Gu Ziyu called Ji Chi, “Baby, why did you suddenly decide to call me?”

“Ji Chi, 1 want to talk to Jiang Junlin!” Gu Ziyu said, “I have something very important to ask him.”

“He’s not with me!” Ji Chi replied.

“Ji Chi, I’m Lu Zhiyuan’s biological son, and I’m sure he must have told you. I can’t be kept in the dark about this. I’m not trying to betray your trust. If you don’t want anything to happen to my uncle, please let me talk to him for a few moments.”

Ji Chi and Gu Ziyu had a very close relationship. Although they hadn’t spent much time together to build that bond, they were like deeply affectionate brothers. Ji Chi, sounding exhausted, said, “What do you want to ask? I’ll help you.”

“What’s wrong with you? You sound really tired, are you injured?” Gu Ziyu furrowed his brow and switched to a video call..
