Upon hearing Mu Chen's question, Ning Chuan moved his lips slightly towards him. Although he didn't make a sound, Mu Chen immediately understood what Ning Chuan meant.

Because this is the secret code of their Thunderbolt Legion.

"Churong, congratulations on your recovery and discharge."

Mu Chen felt relieved. He immediately turned around and his eyes fell on Xia Beibei. The two stood together. The man and woman were a perfect match.

"You don't mind that I haven't had time to visit you, do you?"

Mu Chen looked at Xia Beibei apologetically, and the topic of diverting his attention was just right.

"how could be?"

Xia Beibei smiled at the male protagonist: "I understand all of this. I'm very happy that you can come today."

"Ah."

Before Xia Beibei finished speaking, Lin Yixuan's sneer sounded from the side: "Our Young Master Mu is really a busy man."

"Each other."

Mu Chen raised his eyebrows and glanced at Lin Yixuan, then he walked behind Ning Chuan again and fell silent.

Although they both grew up together, Mu Chen and Lin Yixuan have always been at odds with each other. People in these circles in the capital also knew it, so when the people around them saw this scene, they all dispersed in twos and threes. .

**

As the host of today's banquet, Xia Beibei received the most attention tonight, so several young people soon gathered around her and kept complimenting her.

Xia Beibei naturally accepted all these compliments, and the smile on her face was always polite. In fact, she was very depressed in her heart——

There are so many delicious things, I really want to eat them! very hungry!

But in order to maintain her strong-willed demeanor as Miss Gu, she could only continue to deal with the people around her. An occasional elegant sip of red wine was already the greatest gift.

The Gu family's banquet went very late. Mu Chen followed Ning Chuan all night. The two of them were mysterious and didn't know what they wanted to do. Lin Yixuan was used to finding trouble with Mu Chen, but maybe because Ning Chuan was present today, and Lin Yixuan did not find any opportunity to attack Mu Chen.

On the contrary, Lin Yixuan has always been suspicious of Ning Chuan's appearance. This smiling tiger can get along like a fish in the capital, so naturally he is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

After finally making it to the second half of the banquet, the lights dimmed and many people went to dance and eat. Xia Beibei took the opportunity to find some free time, took a plate of pastries and hid in a corner.

"Chorong?"

At this time, suddenly another voice sounded from the corner.

Hearing that voice, Xia Beibei was startled: "Gu Qingnian, what are you doing? You scared me to death!"

It was so scary that this guy was hiding quietly in this corner. Xia Beibei really didn't realize that there was another person here at first.

"Ah."

Hearing Xia Beibei's voice, Gu Qingnian smiled slightly, then he stared at her face and said calmly: "It's great that you're okay."

Xia Beibei:......

It would be too frustrating if he could be so frightened that he could do anything.

but……

Xia Beibei lowered his eyes and glanced at Gu Qingnian: "What do you mean by this? I don't need your concern."

After hearing Xia Beibei's words, Gu Qingnian stood up straight and looked sideways at the banquet hall: "Mu Chen is very good, but he may not be suitable for you. Maybe you can consider Captain Ning."

"Ningchuan?"

Xia Beibei couldn't help but whisper: "Gu Qingnian, what are you worried about? Did you invite Ning Chuan?"

In fact, Xia Beibei has been wondering that she can't get in to this banquet without an invitation, and as far as she knows, the Gu family did not send an invitation to Ning Chuan!

But Ning Chuan happened to appear here.

It turned out that everything was Gu Qingnian's fault.

"I invited you."

Hearing Xia Beibei's words, Gu Qingnian smiled slightly: "He is the only one in the entire empire who is worthy of you!"

"Oh, you really think highly of me."

Xia Beibei raised his eyebrows proudly: "But I, Gu Churong, don't need others to tell me what I like. I will fight for what I like. If I don't like it, it's useless no matter how hard others force me."

It was such a paranoid character that made Gu Churong fall into a strange circle.

Hearing Xia Beibei's words, Gu Qingnian also narrowed his eyes and said no more words——

Yes, this is the Gu Churong he knows.

Even if his head is bruised and bloody, he will never look back or ask anyone for help, Gu Churong.

"In that case, I wish you good luck."

Gu Qingnian left these words and turned around to leave. Seeing his straight figure blending into the crowd in the hall, Xia Beibei sighed leisurely in his heart——

It is said that hateful people must have pity.

In fact, Gu Churong and Gu Qingnian are both hateful people in this world, but at the same time, they are both pitiful people...

After the dinner, the guests gradually dispersed.

Mu Chen still left with Ning Chuan. As soon as he arrived outside Gu's house, Mu Chen couldn't help but follow Ning Chuan into the car: "Captain, what did you find?"

"No."

Ning Chuan had a sullen face and looked directly at the windshield: "The people in Blood Shadow are the best at disguise. It is normal that they were not discovered. And...the source of the intelligence this time..."

"Captain, who told you this information?"

After hearing Ning Chuan's words, Mu Chen's expression also changed. Blood Shadow is the most wanted terrorist organization in the empire and the mortal enemy of their Thunderbolt Legion. The plane bombing a few days ago was the work of Blood Shadow, and this time the intelligence Someone who said there was a blood shadow sneaked into the Gu family's banquet.

Why is it such a coincidence?

"Captain, is Blood Shadow's target... Gu Churong?"

It might be a mistake once, but would it be a coincidence twice?

There definitely won't be that many coincidences in this world.

"have no idea."

Ning Chuan uttered three words in a low voice: "This information was passed to me from the Military Intelligence Division Three."

"Intelligence Division Three? Isn't that where Gu Qingnian works?"

When Mu Chen heard Ning Chuan's words, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Yes, Gu Qingnian.

Ning Chuan's expression became more serious——

The information this time and the invitation to the banquet were all given to him by Gu Qingnian.

This Gu Qingnian...

It made him feel a little uncomfortable.

But no abnormalities were detected.

"Mu Chen, I remember that someone from your Mu family also works in the Third Intelligence Division, right?"

Ning Chuan suddenly raised his eyes and glanced at Mu Chen: "Help me check on Gu Qingnian. Your actions must be secretive. Don't be discovered by Gu Qingnian!"

If Mr. Gu is an old fox and Gu Churong is the lion of Hedong, then Gu Qingnian is the only King Cobra in the Gu family...

There is definitely something wrong with that person.

Ning Chuan's car finally left slowly in the night.

At the end of the song, everyone left in their cars.

Standing on the balcony on the third floor of Gu's house, watching all the guests leave, Gu Qingnian squinted her eyes with a strange smile on her lips...
