Chapter 243 Family and Country in Dire Straits (13)
Yan Yu regretted not controlling his temper earlier.
I was so focused on resolving this issue that I forgot to put on a facade.
That violent side was then revealed to the gentleman.
The mask of hypocrisy was torn off unexpectedly.
This dirty corner was revealed to the youth.
The young man was like a green bamboo, so noble and pure that he was completely out of place in the filthy Yan family.
Gu Yao's vision was a little blurry, and he didn't like this feeling.
He frowned and reached out his hand to Yan Yu, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Yan Yu looked at the hand extended in front of him. The palm lines were faint, the fingers were slender, and even the fingertips were unusually clean.
He asked, somewhat puzzled, "Sir, what's wrong?"
Helpless, Gu Yao reached out and took the gold-rimmed glasses that the boy was holding between his fingers.
When the young man's cool fingertips touched the back of his hand, Yan Yu's heart trembled slightly.
The fleeting touch ignited a raging fire.
Gu Yao took the glasses; the boy's fingerprints were on the lenses, making the originally bright lenses somewhat blurry.
The handsome young man took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, lowered his head, and carefully wiped the lenses.
But what he didn't see was that the moment he lowered his head, the boy couldn't help but twitch his fingers, his burning gaze fixed on him.
There was a dark fog in his eyes.
But the moment the young man looked up, he reverted to his docile demeanor.
"Sir, would you like to take another look?"
Gu Yao was taken aback, then shook his head.
Although he really wanted to figure out the Yan family's defenses and layout, after witnessing this, it would be suspicious to suggest he was just taking a stroll.
Caution is the boat.
Tsk, they didn't figure out the Yan family's situation, and they didn't even get to see the play.
It's really a loss.
If we miss this opportunity, we'll have to wait until Yan Xi takes a concubine.
Thinking of this, a faint regret appeared on Gu Yao's face.
Yan Yu stared at the young man's handsome and harmless face, his lowered eyes trembling slightly, his brows furrowed as if he felt a little regretful.
I never expected my husband to like the scenery in this mansion so much.
Is the scenery in the West not good?
This kind of gentleman is actually quite adorable.
After watching for a while, Yan Yu finally took Gu Yao's hand.
Gu Yao turned his head in confusion.
Yan Yu gently squeezed her fingers between Gu Yao's fingers, "Sir, you don't need to take today's events to heart. I said I would take you on a tour of the manor today, and I will naturally keep my promise."
"These sordid matters are not worth your distress, sir. Let them not spoil your good mood."
The willows are dark and bright.
Gu Yao's eyes widened slightly.
Good guy.
That's a better excuse than his.
Thank you to Yan Yu for the luxury cruise ship.
To Yan Yu, this appearance seemed like one of undiscovered joy.
The eyes behind the cool glasses looked somewhat dazed as they widened slightly.
Just like a cute kitten.
The white cat on the wall, startled by someone, also had this expression.
Yet a small fish can soothe its agitated emotions.
Then, lie flat and let them touch you.
They'll even show their bellies and act cute and cuddly.
I wonder if you, sir, are easily tempted by a little bit of benefit?
Yan Yu lowered the thoughts in his eyes.
I couldn't help but rub my fingers.
The fingertips have a delicate touch.
It was a bit chilly.
It's the back of the gentleman's hand.
A temperature that makes you want to stay.
Seeing that Yan Yu was taking advantage of the situation, Gu Yao smiled slightly and "friendly" reminded him, "Young Master Yan, could you let go of my hand?"
The young man's gaze was somewhat unfriendly, but Yan Yu was not afraid at all. Instead, he clenched his fist tighter.
“Sir, there are people watching everywhere in this mansion. It would be safer if I held your hand.”
Gu Yao: "..."
I believe you!
However, with Yan Yu as a shield, he naturally had no obstacles in the mansion.
Yan Yu led his men to carefully inspect every place they could enter.
Even with wet palms, they were unwilling to let go.
Gu Yao did indeed observe carefully.
With such a great opportunity, we must take a closer look.
Those places that are heavily guarded are definitely where important things are kept.
The scenery in the mansion was beautiful, but he had long since grown tired of it. Compared to Gu Yao's enthusiasm, he was clearly more interested in the expression of the person beside him.
Looking at those clear, bright eyes, her lips curved slightly upwards, and she couldn't help but feel a surge of joy, even though she was trying her best to suppress it.
His whole being radiated joy.
It makes people feel happy.
Gu Yao was naturally happy.
The little brat is leading him around at such a leisurely pace; he'll have enough time to memorize everything he needs to remember.
Gu Yao already had several doubts in his mind.
I'm just waiting for an opportunity to find out.
Yan Yu led his men in one direction, and Gu Yao could clearly feel the tension of the guards.
There's a sentry every three steps and a guard every five steps.
The soldiers on guard were all armed, and their expressions toward the two men were somewhat hostile, but no one stepped forward to stop them; they were just extra cautious.
Gu Yao's face was slightly pale, but Yan Yu seemed used to it, strolling leisurely and even stopping to admire the apricot blossoms in full bloom.
Feeling the slight pressure from the fingertips in his palm, as if there was some tension, Yan Yu smiled triumphantly, gently patted Gu Yao's hand, and leaned close to the young man's ear, saying softly, "Sir, don't be nervous, they won't dare to do anything."
Gu Yao turned his head away, avoiding the boy's breathing, and stubbornly said, "It's nothing."
"Yes, sir, I'm alright. I was just nervous. I need you to come closer."
As he spoke, Yan Yu pulled the person closer to him.
Gu Yao didn't struggle anymore and obediently took two steps closer to Yan Yu.
Yan Yu's smile widened even further.
As they slowly walked along the path toward Yan Yu's courtyard, the guards gradually relaxed.
Gu Yao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but at the same time, his gaze darkened.
That small courtyard we just passed must be Yan Xi's residence.
Being stared at like that triggered his stress response, and he instinctively wanted to shoot the person.
This little trick, of course, did not escape Yan Yu's notice.
The man's nervous demeanor was actually quite...intriguing.
The way it approaches you without saying a word is also quite cute.
This is something that Yan Yu has rarely found interesting in his nineteen years of life.
He has a lot of patience.
Turning his head to look at Gu Yao, the young man still looked somewhat dazed.
Yan Yu was puzzled.
Were they really scared?
"gentlemen."
"Ok?"
Gu Yao was mentally reviewing the key locations to check when he heard Yan Yu's voice and turned his head to look.
Seeing that Gu Yao's expression remained unchanged, Yan Yu shook his head.
"nothing."
"Shall we go, sir?"
"it is good."
