Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1391: Of Course the Human Heart Is Unfathomable

"At the entrance of my neighborhood, I will go with you to that place. It’s about a hundred miles away, and there should already be a group of people looking for him. I think you are also curious about who exactly is looking for him; maybe it will be of some help to you." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao was answering the phone in the study room that belonged to her and Qin Yize.

Before this, she had already given Dongfang Yu the phone numbers of both Gu Garden and the Qin Family’s study room. There was no other way; they would need to stay in contact in the future.

Gu Qiaoqiao tightly clutched the receiver, pondered for a moment, and then nodded, saying, "Okay, I’ll go to your building downstairs and wait for me there. I’ll be quick."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Qiaoqiao was thinking about why Nie Luan suddenly appeared in Gala Mountain.

Could it be that Spiritual Energy is abundant there, making it suitable for hiding?

Maybe so; otherwise, Nie Luan wouldn’t have chosen such a place, and that Gala Mountain is not far from the Imperial Capital.

Without further hesitation, Gu Qiaoqiao quickly changed into clothes suitable for mountain travel, grabbed her satchel, and hurriedly walked out of her room. She ran into Qin Xiaoyu, who was doing her summer homework. After a quick greeting and instructing Qin Xiaoyu to inform Grandma Qin, who was out on a stroll, she pushed open the Qin Family’s main door and quickly walked outside.

Dongfang Yu didn’t have a car, and there was no car at the Qin Family Old Residence either. Gu Qiaoqiao frowned and thought for a moment, then took a taxi to Gu Garden, picked up Brother Li San, and quickly sped towards Dongfang Yu’s apartment.

Brother Li San was a trustworthy person, and Gu Qiaoqiao never hid anything from him, directly telling him where she was going.

Gala Mountain should be a place with a lot of Spiritual Energy; otherwise, Nie Luan wouldn’t choose it.

Just not sure what Nie Luan is like now. Soon, the car arrived at Dongfang Yu’s apartment.

As expected, Dongfang Yu was waiting underneath a tree at the entrance, dressed in black clothes. It was rare to see him wearing canvas sneakers, which made him look quite young.

Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t have time to say anything to Dongfang Yu before he got into the car driven by Brother Li San, and the three of them sped towards the northern part of the Imperial Capital. It was already nighttime, with thousands of household lights illuminating the beautiful night sky. The brilliant lights and the stars filled the sky, weaving together into a dreamlike scene.

At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao and Dongfang Yu sat in the backseat of the car. She glanced over at Dongfang Yu, noticing that he was slightly different from a few days ago. His recovery was quite rapid, similar to hers.

Although he was still thin and his mental state was different from a year ago, there was a world of difference compared to when Qin Yize had just carried him out. At the very least, Dongfang Yu could move freely, so it was easy to figure out which direction to go.

Gu Qiaoqiao looked ahead, then turned to look at Dongfang Yu, moved her lips but didn’t speak. Everything had been explained, and the warnings had been given. Since Dongfang Yu had already agreed, there was no need to repeatedly remind him.

Dongfang Yu glanced lightly at the staring Gu Qiaoqiao, then turned his gaze forward and suddenly said, "You don’t need to be so wary of me. Now, you should be wary of Sect Leader Nie and those behind him looking for Nie Luan."

"I know," Gu Qiaoqiao replied sullenly.

"In this world, most people’s hearts are unpredictable. Some people you can easily see through their motives, while others you may never know what they’re thinking..." Dongfang Yu rarely spoke again, as if he were talking to himself, but he seemed to be warning Gu Qiaoqiao.

"Of course, people’s hearts are unpredictable. Some people will stop at nothing to achieve their goals; I’ve seen too many of such people and things," Gu Qiaoqiao said, implying something.

Dongfang Yu seemed indifferent, ignoring Gu Qiaoqiao’s sarcasm. His dark eyes looked ahead; there were no street lights, and it seemed as dark as ink, with only the car’s headlights illuminating the road.

Occasionally, other cars whizzed by, but they vanished from sight in the blink of an eye.

Silence fell for a moment, and Dongfang Yu spoke again, "It’s not just me, Dongfang Yu, in this world. There’s no need to keep a close watch on me. Since I promised you, I will keep my word. What you need to pay attention to now is who is looking for Nie Luan, what Sect Leader Nie intends to do, and he knows a bit about the situation with your Gu Family. If things really turn ugly in the future, you’ll be caught off guard."

Gu Qiaoqiao tilted her head to look at Dongfang Yu but was surprised to find this guy now looking this way. Whether he was being sarcastic or mocking him, it didn’t seem to bother him. She didn’t know if it was because he had thick skin or didn’t care about her words, but in any case, they couldn’t get into an argument. Gu Qiaoqiao pursed her lips and stayed silent, staring ahead.

She couldn’t help but think of the Tracking Talisman again. By logic, she should have been able to use it to find Nie Luan, but for some reason, the image that appeared was chaotic after drawing it.

It was the same as when trying to find Dongfang Yu before; it hadn’t worked.

This Tracking Talisman was different from other talismans, always inconsistent in effectiveness, and she couldn’t understand why this was so.

If not, they wouldn’t have needed Dongfang Yu, and she wouldn’t be sitting in the same car as him.

Moreover, Gu Qiaoqiao knew that her Tracking Talisman was different from other talismans and couldn’t be used frequently, but she couldn’t determine exactly how much time should pass between usages.

It was quite an annoying issue.

The car interior fell silent, Dongfang Yu was not much of a talker, and Gu Qiaoqiao had nothing to say to him. Brother Li San was dutifully focused on the road ahead.

They were already some distance from the city, and having left the city for over an hour, there were no buildings nearby, mostly mountains and forests. Occasionally, nocturnal animals darted across the road, startled by the car’s headlights. At those moments, Brother Li San would slow down, allowing a frightened rabbit to run across.

Yet, Dongfang Yu remained silent, not looking ahead but slightly closing his eyes, seeming to sense everything ahead. An hour passed quietly, then suddenly, Dongfang Yu spoke, "Stop the car."

Brother Li San glanced at both sides of the road, then slowly pulled over and stopped the car. Dongfang Yu opened the door, stood by the roadside, and looked toward the forest ahead.
