Gu Bei held the soft little Nuan Nuan with a smile on his face. Facing this younger sister who was much younger than him but very well-behaved, he and his elder brother almost raised her as a daughter.
Of course, they would do their best to give her the best of what they could.
It was a huge and difficult project to create an underground world that contained plants from different worlds and regions. Fortunately, the instruments that Gu Bei brought back were very advanced and could perfectly simulate the living environment required by various plants.
A lot of electricity was needed in the early stage, but in the later stage, when the plants here grew up, these instruments would automatically obtain the energy in the plants to maintain power, thus forming a favourable cycle that was good for both plants and machines.
Nuan Nuan had completely become Gu Bei’s little tail these days, following him to get busy in the basement.
This sticky energy deeply made Gu Nan and Father Gu jealous, and they looked at Gu Bei with resentment.
Gu Bei endured the eyes of his father and elder brother while enjoying his sister’s dependence on him. It was said that he was immersed in both pain and happiness.
Until this afternoon, when he was called to the study room and everyone told him about Liang Chi.
It was always a hidden danger that this person had not been found.
“The police found a body that had been tortured in a tube building in the East District.”
Bai Moshu used the computer to show the identity of the deceased to everyone.
“The deceased, Zhang Wenfa, was dropped upside down at home, with tape on his mouth and hundreds of cuts on his body, none of which were fatal. He was hung for three days and three nights, and was tortured for two days. He died on the third day.”
“Are you sure it was Liang Chi who killed him? Why does he seem different from the previous ones?”
Although Liang Chi’s previous methods were gentler and lasted longer, the scope of the killing was very wide, involving many innocent people.
But this time it seemed that he did it himself, and in such a cruel way.
Bai Moshu nodded, “The surveillance captured his figure. He did it on purpose. According to the information, Zhang Wenfa should have another son, but the police didn’t find him. His wife died seven days ago. After the autopsy, it was found that his wife had multiple fractures and signs of long-term beatings. This Zhang Wenfa not only drank and gambled, but also domestically abused not only his wife, but also his son.”
Gu Linmo frowned, “This family is just like a replica of Liang Chi.”
This was not difficult to explain why Liang Chi would torture and kill Zhang Wenfa. Zhang Wenfa’s son was likely in Liang Chi’s hands now.
The police are now trying their best to capture Liang Chi. No matter what the reason, in today’s rule of law society, once Liang Chi was caught, his life would be over.
Gu Bei was silent for a while and suddenly said, “I have a way to track him.”
Liang Chi was a time bomb, both for this society and for their Gu family.
They couldn’t leave such a hidden danger for the Gu family.
Gu Bei handed a USB flash drive to his eldest brother, and then he didn’t care about it anymore and went to work on sending it to Nuan Nuan’s plant world.
December was almost here, and the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year was everywhere. The street lamps were hung with Chinese knots and other festive red things related to the Chinese New Year.
Nuan Nuan was also dressed tightly, like a little fat bun, accompanying her mother to go out to prepare New Year’s goods. This time, she was waiting for Gu Mingli and Gu An to have a holiday and go out together.
A group of people went to the supermarket and the mall to buy things.
“Brother, you have to wear red clothes too.”
The little girl pointed at the festive clothes and smiled at her brothers.
Gu Mingli said with disgust, “No.”
Then he looked at Bai Mohua, “You go and try it?”
Bai Mohua shook his head, “I don’t want to either. Why should I go?”
Gu An said arrogantly, “Although I look good in anything, I dislike this for being ugly.”
Gu Mingyu opened his down jacket, revealing the red sweater he was wearing inside.
To be honest, if you don’t have a good foundation, you really couldn’t hold this festive color.
But even if Gu Mingli wore a red sweater, he looked like a model, very elegant, and it also made his skin seem whiter and more beautiful.
At this moment, he was wearing a mask as he opened his down jacket, squatted down, and put the little girl into his clothes.
“Little Fatty, come here and warm up.”
Nuan Nuan, “I’m not a little fat ball!”
The little face was puffed up, and she squeaked like an angry hamster, but she was so small that she could be pinched in an instant.
Nuan Nuan’s little head turned around, “Huh? Where’s second brother?”
Mother Gu pointed to the clothing store.
When everyone looked over, they found that Gu Bei was already checking out with several shopping bags, and the red festive clothes hanging in the store had disappeared.
Everyone: “…………”
In just a short while, you bought all the clothes!
Gu Bei walked out confidently under the attendant’s smiling face, and then raised the shopping bag in his hand.
“Don’t worry, we have them all.”
Gu Mingli’s body was full of rejection. He didn’t want to wear red, he would look stupid if he wore it!
Mother Gu made a decision, “Everyone will wear them when we go back for the New Year!”
Then the clothes were taken away by the bodyguard to be loaded into the car, and she pressed her earphone while walking.
“Hurry up and change to a car with a large loading capacity!”
They really saw the shopping ability of the second young master of the Gu family. He usually looked like a good man who was good at managing the family, but how could he be a spendthrift!
The family moved all kinds of things for the New Year home like hamsters. In fact, these things could be delivered with just one phone call, but that would lose the flavour.
This year, the family was so lively, of course, they had to prepare it themselves to make it more festive.
After almost everything was bought, it was the New Year’s Day. Everyone was busy early in the morning, hanging lanterns, pasting spring couplets, preparing New Year’s dinner, etc. Even Gu Nan and father Gu had a “holiday”.
Bai Moshu and Bai Mohua were even more amazing. They directly brought their parents here to celebrate the New Year together.
But this was just right. The whole family was neat and tidy, and it was so lively.
During the Chinese New Year, Nuan Nuan also ran around like a little tail, handing window decorations and spring couplets, and Da Huang would circle around her and cry.
Gu An was making things worse, and was disliked by his family.
“Gu An! Go walk the dog with your sister!”
Gu An snorted, “It’s your loss without my help!”
But he was quite happy to walk the dog with his sister.
Nuan Nuan was dressed warmly, wearing a scarf, hat and gloves, as he handed Da Huang’s leash to her little brother.
The little girl smiled sweetly, “Little brother, pull Da Huang, I will hold Rhubarb.”
They couldn’t help much, so they took Da Huang out for a walk first, otherwise this guy would make trouble.
The two little ones took Da Huang and a few cats, and there was a little bird hidden in the hat. While Nuan Nuan went out with her little schoolbag.
Her little schoolbag contained food for cats and dogs, as well as her own snacks, hehe…
“Brother, I will give you candy.”
The little girl took out a few candies from her schoolbag skilfully.
“Just give me one?”
“Then how many does brother want? Big brother said I can’t eat too many, otherwise my teeth will hurt.”
Gu An, “I’m not afraid, I’ve already changed my teeth.”
Nuan Nuan looked at her little brother with bright eyes and asked in a baby voice, “Will it stop hurting after brother changes his teeth?”
Gu An boasted, “Yes, the teeth that are replaced are the ones that are easy to decay. The other teeth are not easy to decay and can be eaten.”
“Wow… Then when can Nuan Nuan change his teeth? Does it hurt when brother changes his teeth?”
Gu An, “It doesn’t hurt at all!”
He completely forgot when someone changed his teeth for the first time, his mouth was full of blood and he was so scared that he thought he was going to die, and he cried and asked his mother whether he should write a suicide note.
