Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries-Chapter 487: Troubles Keep Coming

No matter whether the members of the Gu Family accept it or not, Gu Family Head is now Gu Zhi.

She holds the Gu Family Head’s token and has received the recognition of the Gu Family’s ancestors. Even if Gu Yuan regrets it later, he would be questioned by the Gu Family’s ancestors.

Xia Mian looked deeply into Gu Zhi’s eyes, "Seeing that you’re okay, I can rest easy."

Pausing for a moment, she added meaningfully, "Since this is your choice, I respect it. Take care, I will always be here."

Gu Zhi felt a warmth in her heart, her eyes heated up. Though she was now a thorn in the side of everyone in the Gu Family, Xia Mian still stood by her without hesitation.

"Thank you." Gu Zhi opened her arms and lightly hugged Xia Mian.

Xia Mian was taken aback by Gu Zhi’s enthusiasm, and the next moment Gu Zhi had already left her embrace, smiling at her, "So, are you leaving?"

Xia Mian didn’t speak, she just glanced casually at everyone in the Gu Family present.

That gaze carried a strong warning.

Then, she gently tapped Gu Zhi’s forehead with her hand.

Gu Zhi only felt a clarity in her mind, as if a myriad of connections had formed between her and Xia Mian.

"I’ve left a trace of my aura on you." Xia Mian’s voice wasn’t loud, but enough for everyone present to hear, "If this aura disappears, I will come back to the Gu Family."

After speaking, Xia Mian turned to Lu Zechuan, "Let’s go!"

Lu Zechuan nodded, taking Xia Mian’s arm.

"Let me see you off." Gu Zhi said, getting up to walk with Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan.

Gu Yuan and several elders dared not delay, accompanying them with smiles to see Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan out of the Gu Family’s door.

Retain Xia Mian?

Impossible!

They couldn’t wait for this Evil God to leave the Gu Family!

Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan left, their visit swift and fleeting. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Before Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan came, Gu Zhi’s life was in Gu Yuan’s hands, but after they came, the Gu Family’s skies changed.

Even though everyone in the Gu Family was dissatisfied with Gu Zhi becoming the Family Head, they dared not speak out.

After all, before leaving, Xia Mian had left a thread of her aura on Gu Zhi!

The atmosphere in the Gu Family became subtly different after Gu Zhi became the new Family Head.

And after Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan left the Gu Family, they immediately returned to the Divine Clan.

They arrived at the Gu Family in the afternoon and returned to the Divine Clan by evening.

On the night they returned to the Divine Clan, they briefly informed Xia Liang and then set off back to the present world.

This marriage between the two clans that shook the entire Mystical World seemed more like a formality for the two of them.

On the night Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan returned to the present world, Xia Zhun and Song Juan also left the Mystical World.

Song Juan had never been accustomed to living in this world; if not for supporting Xia Mian, she would probably never want to come here again.

After returning to the present world, despite being away for two days, no anomalies occurred.

Even without the Xia father and daughter presiding, the disruptive elements became increasingly rare.

Xia Mian had signed a Contract with the Mystical Sects, so they dared not casually enter the present world.

Anyone wanting to come must abide by Xia Mian’s rules, making their visits resemble tourism, unable to cause much trouble.

As for other world intruders, beyond those who occupied Han Xi’s body summoning companions at Baihua Mountain, no other intruders have appeared.

The heavy burden in Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan’s hearts was finally slightly lifted.

After hosting two weddings in the Mystical World, there was a marriage contract between them.

Thus, even though they weren’t very talkative, they had reached an understanding.

Not long after they returned, Mrs. Lu had fully recovered from her leg injury.

With her leg healed, Mrs. Lu not only appeared in public again but fully retired behind the scenes, granting Lu Zechuan all decision-making powers for the Lu Family.

On the third day after their return, Lu Zeming was entangled again by the Lu Family’s main house.

When the bodyguard’s call came, Lu Zechuan’s face immediately darkened.

After being driven out of the Lu Family by their grandmother, the main house lived off the remains of their fortune, unable to bear hardships or hard work.

Their original wealth had mostly dissipated.

The whole family leached off Lu Zeming alone.

Now that Lu Zeming had completely fallen out with them, they still came entangling him.

Did this family believe firmly that Zeming’s kind nature would always make him their cash dispenser?

Noticing Lu Zechuan’s sullen face, Xia Mian sensed his irritation and emotional fluctuation.

She gently tugged on Lu Zechuan’s hand, "If we let Zeming handle this, he won’t be ruthless enough."

How could a righteous person harden their heart against their own kin?

This troublesome matter required both her and Lu Zechuan to intervene.

Lu Zechuan responded with a low hum, then put on a coat intending to head out, "I’m going out for a bit, you rest well at home."

Over the last two days, he had made up for the wedding night ceremonies of two weddings in the Mystical World, afraid that Xia Mian’s fragile body couldn’t handle it.

"I’ll go with you!" Xia Mian smiled.

Since Lu Zechuan was a Lu by name, openly clashing with the main house might bear much criticism.

Lu Zechuan remained silent for a moment, not saying much.

Xia Mian was his nominal fiancée, and they had formed a marriage contract in the Mystical World.

Therefore, he shouldn’t exclude Xia Mian from Lu Family matters.

The two left the Lu Family Villa, got in the car, and quickly drove away.

Using the location sent by the bodyguard, Lu Zechuan quickly found Lu Zeming.

The situation was more complicated than Lu Zechuan had imagined.

The main house intercepted Lu Zeming during a task.

As a result, Lu Zeming failed the task due to their interference; now a woman who had jumped from a bridge lay breathless, quietly on the bridge.

The woman’s family was wailing in agony.

The woman’s husband kept pushing Lu Zeming, questioning why he hadn’t saved his wife.

The bodyguards Lu Zechuan sent to protect Lu Zeming tried to push the man away, but feared they might accidentally harm him.

As they hesitated, Lu Zechuan suddenly rushed over, pushing the man aside with a dark expression, his voice cold and sharp, "What right do you have to blame him? As the victim’s relative, why didn’t you first notice the victim’s emotional distress? Did you fail her, causing her despair?"

Lu Zechuan’s words were relentless and cut to the bone.

The man, who had been raging impotently at Lu Zeming, was momentarily stunned.

Was he indirectly responsible for his wife’s decision to jump?

Was his inaction the last straw for her despair?
