Chapter 855 - It’s Not Too Late to Turn Around (1/2)

At the hospital, Gu Xie had woken up.

He was speaking to Second Old Master Gu privately.

“The bullet was rather thin. You were lucky, but you might not be again in the future. Never act rashly,” Second Old Master Gu said softly. “Our family cannot handle another tragedy.”

“Yes, Pa. I got it,” Gu Xie said. He was different from his elder brothers who had undergone intensive training since they were young. Gu Xie began acting at a young age. He studied and never meddled with the affairs of Ghost City. The people in Ghost City also seldom saw Sixth Master.

He had always been staying away from Ghost City. He was not as combative as his elder brothers, but he knew enough for self-defense. His skills were better than average bodyguards. The incident that happened yesterday night came too suddenly, and he was too unprepared for it. He was also pulled away by Yang Po. The bullet was mean, and it taught him a lesson.

Amidst the chaos, he seemed to have seen a familiar pair of eyes. He kept calling out for that name. His hand was as warm as in his memories. His memory of that person was rather blurry, and he also heard someone shouting for ‘Lil Sixth’ by his ear.

Gu Xie bit his lip. He also saw the look of despair in Lin Xiaojuan. He had thought that he would never see it again. Now, he felt scared.

“Pa, I won’t let you worry about me again.”

“Good that you know it,” Second Old Master Gu said. “Is that person outside your girlfriend?”

“Yes!”

“Yeah, if you guys have been dating for quite some time, bring her home so we can talk about marriage. There’s no need to date for so long.”

“Okay, Pa.” Gu Xie smiled lightly. He knew that his family would never object to him dating. No matter who he wanted to marry, the only thing that mattered was if he liked the person. Since he was young, Second Old Master Gu gave him enough freedom. He could choose the career he liked and the people he liked.

“You are more hardworking than your brothers. You might be the first one to marry.” Thinking of his bunch of worrying sons, Second Old Master Gu felt emotionally tired.

Instead, his youngest daughter had a seven-year-old son.
