Quick Transmigration: After Fake Death, All the Protagonists I Flirted With Went Crazy

Chapter 232 Family and Country in Dire Straits (2)

Why is Mr. Gu laughing?

Gu Yao coughed lightly, his smile fading. "I just think the young master is kind of cute."

The boy was awkward and stubborn, trying hard to look fierce, and thought of himself as a vicious dog.

In Gu Yao's view, it was more like an inflatable pufferfish that would deflate if poked.

As soon as these words were spoken, the already dark face of the boy in front of him seemed to be shrouded in a layer of black mist.

"Does Mr. Gu speak so freely to everyone?"

As soon as the boy said those words, he realized that they were somewhat inappropriate.

It sounds a lot like being jealous.

The boy realized the problem, and the person who had been so aggressive just moments before deflated like a punctured balloon.

Seeing the boy's discomfitured expression, Gu Yao smiled gently.

"Does young master have class today?"

The young man walked slowly over and sat down on the stool next to the boy.

Those jade-like fingers rested lightly on the mahogany table, their fingertips tapping gently, the collision of their knuckles and the solid wood producing a crisp sound.

Each tap struck the boy's heart.

A subtle fragrance lingered at the tip of my nose; it was sandalwood.

Even though it was their first meeting, he felt like the person in front of him was familiar.

Now that I smell this sandalwood, it feels even more familiar.

Gu Yao glanced at the boy who had his head down, who seemed a little shy.

He's lost that defiant, domineering attitude he had just displayed.

He very considerately stood up and said, "Young Master is probably not happy to see me today, so I will come again tomorrow."

Before the boy could stop him, the young man in the long robe had already turned and left.

The seven-jeweled Buddhist beads on her wrist slid down from her forearm to her wrist, making the person in front of her appear even more graceful and elegant.

The delicate scent of sandalwood gradually dissipated, leaving the young man feeling a sense of loss.

***

Gu Yao walked out of the courtyard gate and breathed a huge sigh of relief.

He didn't even know the family owner's surname; if they continued chatting, he was afraid he would be exposed.

Fortunately, I managed to get away with it today.

The young maid who had just led Gu Yao out was a little surprised to see him come out so quickly. "Why did Mr. Gu come out so soon?"

Gu Yao smiled, rubbing his forehead as if somewhat helpless, "Young Master is probably tired today, I'll come again tomorrow."

That young master looks fierce, so he'll just have to take the blame.

The young maid understood.

Mr. Gu has probably been kicked out by the young master.

Looking at the gentle and refined young man before her, the maid felt a pang of sympathy.

How could anyone get angry at someone who is so nice?

However, she did not expose the young man's "kind" pretense. She bowed slightly and said, "Then Mr. Gu, please come with me out of the mansion."

On his way out of the mansion, Gu Yao observed his surroundings and pondered the identity of the mansion's owner.

After passing through several archways, Gu Yao was finally escorted out of the main gate by a maid.

The maidservant lowered her head and raised her voice slightly, saying, "Since the young master is tired, Mr. Gu, please come again tomorrow."

Gu Yao raised an eyebrow, knowing that this was the little maid's kindness, and softly thanked her.

Just as Gu Yao stepped out the door, 0529's cheerful and excited voice rang in his mind, "Host, I'm here."

Gu Yao, who was already used to his stupid system being late: "..."

"What caused the delay this time?"

He wanted to see what other excuses his stupid system could come up with.

Don't think he doesn't know; 66 hasn't been around lately.

0529 was a little excited and blurted out, "I taught a bastard a lesson."

Gu Yao: ? ? !

lesson?

Did they get into a fight?

He thought about his own system's humanoid form, which was over 1.6 meters tall—who could it possibly beat up?

Oh, 66.

After all, 66 won't fight back and will even hand tools to its own stupid system.

0529 immediately realized something was wrong as soon as the words slipped out. He widened his round, light golden eyes, covered his mouth, and shook his head violently.

"It's nothing, host is fine."

Gu Yao: ...

This is utterly ridiculous, like trying to hide something obvious.

Does he look that stupid?

I really shouldn't overestimate the intelligence of my stupid system.

0529 also realized that his cover-up was a bit clumsy, but Gu Yao didn't ask any more questions, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

He flew over to Gu Yao's side and fawned over him, giving him a shoulder massage. "Host, you must be tired. Let me give you a shoulder massage."

Gu Yao felt the gentle pressure on his shoulder and smiled helplessly.

"Stop joking around, hurry up and transfer the memories and plot."

Upon hearing this, the system quickly stood up and pressed the transmission button and the pain relief button.

Gu Yao felt a wave of dizziness and quickly grabbed the wall by the roadside for support as a flood of memories rushed into his mind.

"The Difficulty of Family and Country" revolves around the protagonist Yan Yu, the only male in the Yan family, who has been frail and sickly since childhood.

The fortune teller said that Yan Yu was being targeted by the underworld officials because his yang energy was too strong and needed to be suppressed by yin energy.

So Yan Yu dressed up as a girl from a young age, with long hair and a woman's hairstyle.

They also cannot practice martial arts.

The head of the Yan family abandoned him when he was young. The year after Yan Yu's mother passed away, he married his second wife, who was Yan Yu's aunt.

Gu Yao was a tutor hired by the Yan family for Yan Yu.

Why did the head of the Yan family suddenly start to pay attention to his good-for-nothing son? It was because he later married many concubines, but none of them were able to have children.

Yan Yu became the only male heir in the Yan family.

Now that Yan Yu has grown up and reached adulthood, he is finally thinking of hiring a tutor for someone.

Gu Yao was gentle and learned, and treated Yan Yu very well.

The two developed feelings for each other over time.

But Gu Yao had approached the Yan family with a specific purpose in mind.

He stayed in the Yan family with the intention of killing the head of the Yan family.

Yan Yu, however, is an obstacle on his path to achieving his goal.

It was an accident.

On the night he achieved his goal, Gu Yao sat on the wall of Yan Yu's courtyard, staring at the tightly closed door all night.

He departed just as dawn was breaking.

Not a single word was left behind.

The plan to eradicate the problem completely was not completed.

They never confessed their feelings, and thus became strangers.

In the years that followed, Gu Yao became an underground worker.

Walking on the edge of danger, contributing to the dawn.

He would occasionally hear rumors about Yan Yu.

He took over the Yan family's power and expanded it.

He became known as Commander Yan by everyone.

……

Gu Yao couldn't imagine how the shy and easily embarrassed boy had grown to this point.

But he dared not go to see him.

Yet she couldn't bear to miss even the slightest news about Yan Yu.

I can't pick it up, and I can't put it down.

He fell in love at first sight with Miss Cheng at a banquet and they planned to get married on a chosen date.

This was the last piece of information Gu Yao knew about Yan Yu.

After learning this news, Gu Yao accepted the most dangerous mission.

The infiltration failed.

He died in the dark dungeon.

He never embraced the dawn.

He also personally pushed away his sun.

Dawn is on the horizon.

He has burned out his last bit of light and heat.

So please say sorry to him on my behalf.

Gu Yao did not regret what he had done.

But he let Yan Yu down.

Years of repression have led to endless regrets; he still owes Yan Yu an apology.
