Chapter 268 - 268: Beware of Fire, Theft, and Gu Shiyan

A hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.

After dinner, Lu Miao went upstairs, finished her homework, and washed up.

As she walked to the balcony door, about to reach out and close the window,

she glanced up and saw Gu Shiyan standing on the neighboring balcony. He held a lit cigarette, which glowed in the darkness.

The balcony was not illuminated, and in the night, his back was slightly bent, exuding a faint sense of restraint.

Lu Miao hesitated for a moment, holding the balcony door handle, but ultimately stepped out.

Seeing the cigarette in his hand and remembering the scattered butts she had seen in his office that afternoon, she said, “Smoking is harmful to health.”

Gu Shiyan chuckled softly, extinguished the cigarette, and turned to lean against the balcony railing. “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

Observing the fatigue that he had yet to conceal completely, Lu Miao felt like she should say something. However, she lacked experience in comforting others and didn’t know how to cheer Gu Shiyan up.

After some thought, she finally asked, “Are you tired?”

Their rooms were adjacent, and their balconies were close together.

Gu Shiyan leaned over and took the towel from her hand, using it to dry her hair while smiling as he replied, “Whenever you come to me, I won’t be tired.”

Lu Miao held his hand, looked him up and down, saw he was still wearing a dress shirt and trousers, and said, “Go change your clothes. I’ll take you somewhere.”

Raising an eyebrow, Gu Shiyan wasnt surprised. If it was his little friend, he naturally couldn’t miss it, so he readily agreed, “Okay.”

After drying her hair, she let him go.

Both of them returned to their rooms to change clothes, and Lu Miao grabbed a

mask and a hat before leaving.

Gu Shiyan was waiting outside her door.

He wore a white and light blue sports outfit, with white sports shoes on his feet.

Normally, he favored dark business casual wear, and it was the first time she saw him in sportswear.

Truly someone favored by the heavens; he looked so youthful in this outfit, like a student.

“Let’s go.”

Lu Miao led Gu Shiyan out of the building.

She still hadn’t returned Tang Mochen’s car, so she sat in the driver’s seat.

Gu Shiyan wasn’t surprised to see her driving.

He didn’t ask where they were going and just sat in the passenger seat, cooperating without questions.

Upstairs, Lu Yinan walked out onto the balcony and only saw Gu Shiyan’s back as he got into the car. He thought Gu Shiyan had his own business to attend to and was about to turn back inside when he happened to catch a glimpse of Lu Miao through the front windshield.

“What the hell! Gu Shiyan, come back here! How dare you secretly take my little sister out in the middle of the night! I’ll kill you!”

Wait, it seemed like Lu Miao was driving.

Forget it, his little sister was so well-behaved; Gu Shiyan must have manipulated her into going out!O

Rushing downstairs, the car was long gone by the time he got outside.

Lu Yinan was furious; that beast, Gu Shiyan! If he dared to come back, he’d kick him out immediately.

He immediately called Gu Shiyan, but the call was hung up after just two rings.

Hmph, not even answering his calls.

Lu Yinan opened WeChat and frantically sent Gu Shiyan a barrage of messages. “Brother, be careful when driving! Watch out for safety, fire, theft, and especially Gu Shiyan. Protect yourself at all costs!”o

In the car, Gu Shiyan calmly deleted and blocked Lu Yinan’s number, then turned his head to look out of the window.

It was already early morning. The car passed through the relatively lively city center and then headed toward the outskirts, eventually stopping by a remote-looking small road.

Both sides of the road were lined with lush trees. Perhaps due to its isolated location, it was incredibly quiet here. The night breeze rustled the leaves, creating a soft sound.

The narrow road was lit only by one lonely streetlamp, casting a dim light on the small area around it.

Looking ahead, the darkness that the streetlamp couldn’t reach seemed unusually deep, as if this road had no end.

There wasn’t a single pedestrian around.

Gu Shiyan, who had grown up in Luo City, didn’t know that such a place existed in the bustling city.

To someone who didn’t know, it might seem like the site of some remote crime scene.

Both of them got out of the car, and Lu Miao walked forward into the night.

Gu Shiyan didn’t ask any further questions and followed behind.

Just as they had walked a few meters, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came from behind them. Gu Shiyan turned his head and vaguely saw a figure brushing past him, almost colliding with Lu Miao ahead.

He instinctively reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her closer to him. The person hurriedly passed by, and in just a few seconds, their footsteps were completely gone in the pitch-black night.

Gu Shiyan furrowed his brows slightly, feeling an indescribable eeriness about this place.

Just as he was about to speak, Lu Miao beside him tilted her head and looked at him curiously.

“Did you see that person just now?”

Gu Shiyan caught on to her strange question and quickly realized that the person was probably not normal. Otherwise, Lu Miao wouldn’t be asking like this.

He chuckled softly. “Yes, I saw them.”

Lu Miao was puzzled. “Since when can you see them?”

“After the incident at the Gu family, when I woke up again, I inexplicably gained the ability to see some strange things.” Gu Shiyan briefly explained.

Lu Miao nodded thoughtfully, remembering that it was when she used the symbiosis curse to save him.

Some people experience clairvoyance after experiencing a brush with death. However, she wasn’t sure if Gu Shiyan’s sudden ability to see the supernatural was due to the symbiosis curse he received from her or something else entirely.

If it was because of the symbiosis curse, could there be other effects as well?

The road ahead seemed to have reached its end, with a stone wall appearing in front of them.

Gu Shiyan looked around, making sure there was no other way to go, then turned to Lu Miao.

“Where are we going?”

He believed that Lu Miao wouldn’t have brought him here for no reason, and it couldn’t just be a late-night stroll.

Lu Miao came back to her senses, stopped, and reached out to hold his hand.

In the next second, Gu Shiyan felt a blur before his eyes.

The road that had been a dead end suddenly had a small bridge appear ahead, adorned with two hanging lanterns.

Next to the bridge was a large tree, thick enough for two people to embrace.

Looking from afar, it seemed like there was a furry little animal resting on the tree branch, snoring soundly..
