Chapter 357: Awaken
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The prison where Devon was imprisoned was only an ordinary prison, but he was detained alone at the other end of the prison. He could not see any other prisoners. The long period of loneliness had made Devon a man of few words. He would not even say a word for a day.
The person in charge of monitoring him felt that something was wrong and quickly reported this situation to his superior. The person in charge directly called Tian Min.
“If Devon can do something like hijacking a plane, how can he be depressed just because he’s alone? However, just make him feel that you’ve let your guard down,” Tian Min instructed.
She wasn’t afraid that Devon would escape, but if he told Sl that his energy had been taken away by Yunbao, it would affect the subsequent plan. Therefore, she had to wait until Dro Rabbi completely distrusted Sl before letting him go.
While Tian Min was busy making plans, everyone in the Gu family was trying on outfits.
The Rong Corporation’s 120th anniversary event had long sent invitations. The two families had been on good terms for generations, so they couldn’t just send one representative over. Therefore, the Gu family decided that everyone had to attend.
Other than Gu Lin and Xiao Jing, who often attended such events, the others did not have many outfits. Gu Yu directly bought one from the sponsorship brand he had worn before. Gu Jia frowned. “Who said that one has to wear a full suit to attend banquets? I don’t usually need such things.”
As the captain of the criminal police team, he rarely even wore a police uniform. Usually, he would wear clothes that were convenient for chasing criminals, let alone exquisite suits.
Gu Yu looked at the designs sent by the designer and said, “Don’t complain here. This is the 120th anniversary of the Rong Corporation. If you really go in in casual clothes, I’ll throw you out without Big Brother’s help.”
Compared to his eldest brother, Gu Jia was more afraid of his second brother. He obediently shut his mouth and did not say anything. Gu Yu sent the design plan to those who did not have outfits and said, “Take a look and see if there’s anything you like, I’ll get someone to make it quickly.”
Everyone quickly looked at the design on their phones, afraid that they would be scolded by Second Brother if they were any slower.
Gu Teng and Cheng Xi formed a good sister alliance and kept showing the little gowns to the children. They felt that this one was beautiful and that one was beautiful. They felt that they were already dazzled.
However, Yunbao and Lily were not interested. Recently, the two of them had been cultivating diligently and did not have much time to rest. Their hearts were filled with the desire to sleep more.
However, the two of them had underestimated their mothers’ enthusiasm for dressing up their daughters. Even Purple Eye floated out to participate in this matter and urged the two children to change again to see how they looked.
Yunbao sat on the bed and felt the hardships of life for the first time. She asked, “Mom, will Brother Xuanxuan come to this banquet?”
“Of course,” Gu Teng replied. “This is the Rong Corporation’s 120th anniversary banquet. As the heir of the Rong Corporation, he will definitely attend.’
Old Master Rong thought so too. He had gotten someone to wake Rong Xuan up from his seclusion half a month in advance, afraid that it would affect him negatively.
Today, Rong Xuan finally woke up completely. He walked out of the garden behind the mansion and said, “Grandfather, is it time for the banquet?”
Before Rong Xuan went in, Old Master Rong had mentioned this matter and told him that he had to remember it before he could be successfully awakened.
Old Master Rong looked at his somewhat haggard grandson and said with heartache, “You’ve suffered inside. Grandpa got someone to prepare food for you. Hurry up and eat.”
Rong Xuan smiled. “l just don’t look good, but I’ve been using energy to maintain my body recently. I’m actually stronger than ordinary people.”
“Grandpa thinks you lost weight.” Old Master Rong didn’t listen to this and quickly brought his grandson back to the house.
Nanny Tai had been waiting at the door for a long time. She had the same reaction as Old Master Rong. “My young master, why have you lost so much weight?”
After saying that, she quickly got someone to serve the food. Seeing how enthusiastic they were, Rong Xuan had to take a bite even if he wasn’t hungry.
He was about to pick up his chopsticks when he asked, “Grandpa, will Sister
Yunbao come to the banquet?”
“Yes, the Gu family said that the entire family will attend the banquet.” Old Master Rong smiled.
Nanny Tai was unwilling to let Rong Xuan see Gu Yun. She quickly picked up some food for him and said, “This is Young Master’s favorite.”
In her opinion, that young lady of the Gu family was just a bad omen. She heard that she had dropped out of kindergarten some time ago and hired a tutor to teach at home. She must be in poor health to be like this. Such a person with bad luck had to keep the young master far away to avoid being tainted by bad luck..
