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

Chapter 251 Family and Country in Dire Straits (21)

Chen Lian looked at Gu Yao with a solemn expression, "A Yao, why didn't you make a move against Yan Yu?"

The middle-aged man's voice was deep and calm.

When Gu Yao heard this, he already knew that the person in front of him was angry.

He didn't answer, but just kept his head down quietly.

Chen Lian looked at the stubborn person in front of him and sighed softly.

His personality is just like his parents'.

To put it nicely, it's stubbornness; to put it bluntly, it's being inflexible.

Once I've made up my mind, I'll never go back.

Chen Lian put down the book in his hand and walked to the desk. "A-Yao, you don't even want to tell me?"

Gu Yao curled his fingers and clenched them into a fist.

"Uncle Chen, he won't."

He will not be like Yan Xi.

They wouldn't do the same thing as Yan Xi.

Gu Yao understood "him," and it was precisely because of this understanding that she made this choice.

Chen Lian slammed the book in his hand onto the table with a "bang." "Gu Yao, do you know what you're doing? You're gambling, gambling with Jinbei, gambling with Yan Yu's choice."

"What if—and I mean what if—Yan Yu and Yan Xi are the same person, Gu Yao, how will you explain yourself! Can your life bear the weight of the entire northern Shanxi?"

Gu Yao looked up, clenching his fists, his eyes filled with determination, "He won't!"

Chen Lian, who had just received news from northern Shanxi, was speechless upon hearing this.

He sized up Gu Yao in front of him; the handsome young man's face was full of determination and stubbornness, even with a hint of anger.

It seems like she doesn't like others saying bad things about Yan Yu.

Chen Lian sighed, waved his hand dismissively, and didn't want to see Gu Yao anymore.

"Go down and see if the information department needs any help."

Gu Yao pursed his lips, looked at the person in front of him who was rubbing his forehead in pain, paused for a moment, and then chose to turn around and leave.

As they approached the door, Gu Yao seemed to remember something and turned to look at Chen Lian.

Chen Lian asked, somewhat puzzled, "Is there anything else?"

Gu Yao looked at the person in front of him with a serious expression and said earnestly, "Uncle Chen, Yan Yu is not that kind of person, and he will not become that kind of person."

Chen Lian: "..."

"roll!"

Gu Yao quickly rolled away.

The system had been waiting outside the door for a long time.

Seeing Gu Yao come out, he quickly went forward.

"Host……"

Gu Yao glanced at her, and Xiao Jiu swallowed back the words she was about to say.

"Brother Yao, how is it?"

Looking at the somewhat uncomfortable blond boy in front of him, Gu Yao smiled.

Hearing that "Brother Yao" made him feel truly comfortable.

In the previous worlds, I was always someone's younger brother. In this world, I can finally be someone's older brother.

"Yes, Xiao Jiu."

Xiao Jiu looked at the young man in front of her with a sense of helplessness.

"Brother Yao".

Gu Yao nodded and led his men toward the information department.

Chen Lian, who was in the room, looked at the message that had been sent back and sighed slightly.

In a way, they achieved the same goal through different paths.

However, it was too reckless.

Chen Lian rubbed his head, feeling a headache coming on.

***

"Ah Yao, Ah Yao, I've brought back the newspaper from northern Shanxi that you wanted."

Gu Yao was helping someone decipher the intercepted information when he saw someone rushing in.

But they were stopped at the door.

Gu Yao got up and walked out.

Chen Bai smiled happily as he looked at the young man who was walking briskly towards him.

He took a thick stack of newspapers out of his side bag and handed it to Gu Yao.

The handsome young man took the newspaper, his fingertips gently stroking the rough paper that still smelled of ink.

Chen Bai looked at the young man with a smile on his lips, somewhat puzzled, "A-Yao, why do you always ask for newspapers from Jinbei?"

Gu Yao paused upon hearing this, looked up at the young man in front of him, and changed the subject, saying, "It's nothing, just a personal hobby."

"I'll treat you to dinner once I crack that code."

Chen Bai waved his hand, "It's nothing, just a small favor."

The codebreakers who were just discussing things with Gu Yao were already calling for him to go back.

"coming!"

Gu Yao turned to Chen Bai, waving the newspaper in his hand, "Brother Chen Bai, I'm going back first. Let's have dinner together after I'm done with my work."

Before Chen Bai could answer, Gu Yao had already hurriedly run away.

Looking at the young man's retreating figure, Chen Bai felt a mix of helplessness and envy.

Ah Yao is still more capable than me.

It's already the core of the deciphering.

And that boy.

Chen Bai sighed softly as he thought of Gu Jiu.

It's true what they say, comparisons are odious.

That boy was a true genius.

Any password is like a fragile paper wall to him, easily broken with a single poke.

It fell over with a gentle push.

In just two years, they have become highly sought-after commodities.

After all, such geniuses are rare and hard to come by.

Isn't this just a windfall?

Even the Information Department, which once vehemently opposed outsiders entering, is now being pulled away as soon as Gu Jiu enters.

Even Gu Yao couldn't stop it.

Chen Bai sighed and silently picked up his bag.

He should just focus on doing what he's supposed to do.

Things are starting to get chaotic on the surface.

Chen Bai touched the pen on the side of his bag, his eyes gradually hardening.

***

At night, Gu Yao sat at his desk, enjoying his rare moment of leisure.

Spread out on the table is the newspaper that Chen Bai brought back today.

Gu Yao carefully examined the contents of the newspaper, gently stroking the black and white photograph.

A profile view, not very clear, but the handsome features of the young man are still visible.

Beautiful, but not seductive.

Amidst the elegant attire and swaying hair, a young man in a well-tailored suit held up a glass, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Just looking at it is captivating.

Her slender, pale fingertips reached out to touch that face, but then she noticed a speck of ink on them.

She curled her fingertips, wiped the dirt on her sleeve, and then gently touched the face.

The boy has grown up.

It's really beautiful.

Yan Yu, 22 years old.

Hello there.

When Xiao Jiu returned, she saw Gu Yao sitting at the table with a lamp lit, and black and white newspapers spread out on the table.

The system sighed.

That's it again.

He took out his pocket watch and looked at it; it was already past eleven.

Today was already busy, and I have to get up early tomorrow.

Staying up so late is not a good idea.

The blond boy frowned, then walked towards Gu Yao. "Brother Yao, it's time to rest."

Gu Yao was about to pick up the scissors to cut when he heard the voice of his stupid system.

He lowered his hand somewhat helplessly.

"Xiao Jiu, just a little while, just a little while, just finish cutting this one..."

The system smiled and shook its head. "No!"

Gu Yao wanted to struggle a little longer.

But then she saw the blond boy in front of her smiling, and then he took the newspaper from the table.

"Now, take a break!"

Gu Yao sighed, somewhat reluctant to leave.

Xiao Jiu pointed in the direction of the room.

There was no room for negotiation in their eyes.

The young man nodded helplessly.

"Okay, okay, go and rest now."

"Go quickly."

Gu Yao dragged his feet to the door, but then, as if remembering something, he turned around pitifully, "Xiao Jiu..."

Seeing the young man's pitiful appearance, 0529's heart softened, but he quickly moved on.

"Not negotiable."

"Ok."

The young man's tone was aggrieved and regretful as he looked back at the black-and-white newspaper repeatedly.

She looked utterly pitiful.

0529:"……"

I'll just watch you perform quietly.

If I'm too soft-hearted, I'll admit defeat.

The blond boy slightly turned his head away, no longer looking at the young man.

Gu Yao knew it was hopeless the moment the system turned its head.

With a sigh, he could only turn around and go into the room.

Hearing the door close, the system breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, I didn't look at the host.

Otherwise, I really don't know if we could have held on.

Very risky.

0529 looked at the newspaper in his hand and sighed softly.

The systematized humanoid form does not need to rest.

He'll help the host pick and choose.

He knows whose information the host wants to see.
