Chapter 26: What needs to be concealed is not just from the enemy

  "Communist International?" This name wasn't the first time he had heard it, and he also knew what kind of organization it was, only that he didn't know he belonged to this organization, so he felt a bit surprised!

  "I won't say anything else, you'll understand slowly later. By the way, if you need any help and can't find me, take a look at the necklace on your neck, many of your secrets are hidden in it!" He had stayed here for too long and had to leave quickly. After finishing speaking, he didn't even look at Gu Longfei's gaping expression, wanting to ask questions, and strode out the door, braving the wind and snow, walking into the night!

  After Xiao Cheng left, Gu Longfei closed the door and turned to look at Murong Ding, who was still sleeping under the influence of the anesthetic. Murong Ding's skin was fair and his features were regular, with his eyes tightly closed, revealing a strong and refined appearance despite the bloodstains on his face. Gu Longfei had always thought he was his lifesaver and respected him infinitely, addressing him as "Big Brother Murong" in both words and heart. He never expected that beneath this seemingly bookish exterior lay a ruthless and venomous heart, filling him with intense disgust at once.

  But just now, the brother-in-law explained the severity of the situation, and for now, I can only suppress the unpleasantness in my heart, prioritize the overall situation, open the medicine box, take out gauze and medicinal powder, apply it to his forehead and facial wounds, wrap them with gauze, then drag him to the bed in the side room, letting him sleep on his own!

  For days, Gu Longfei had been through so many ups and downs that he felt exhausted and sleepy. He fell onto the bed and soon fell fast asleep. It wasn't until the next morning when the sky was just getting light that he woke up to hear Muyong Ding calling him. He quickly got out of bed and went over to see Muyong Ding sitting in a chair in the main hall, feeling around on his head with his hand on the gauze bandage. When he saw Gu Longfei come in, he looked shocked and asked how he had gotten hurt on the head?

  Jade Dragon shook his head and said, "Muyong big brother, I didn't drink with you before, so I don't know your capacity. At first, when I saw your enthusiasm for drinking was high, I didn't dare to stop you, so I accompanied you cup by cup! When I found out that you had already drunk a lot, it was too late. You got up to go to the bathroom and hit your head on the wall, breaking your head!"

  Murong Ding looked around in confusion and said, "How is this possible? I remember drinking only a few cups, how did I end up drunk?" He knew his own capacity for liquor, and without at least two kilograms of wine, he wouldn't even get dizzy. So he walked over to the table, picked up the wine jug, shook it a few times, and found that it was empty. He couldn't help but sigh, "The wine is all gone? Why do I feel like I only had a few cups?"

  Gulong Fei couldn't help but secretly laugh, and to prove that Murong Ding was indeed drunk last night before falling down, he deliberately poured the remaining half tank of wine into the toilet. Gulong Fei pretended to be heartbroken and said: "It turns out that Brother Murong's alcohol tolerance is very high, I didn't know! You fell asleep so quickly yesterday, I think it's because you were worried about my family affairs, overworked, and tired, so when drinking wine, you didn't put down your concern for me. When one has something on their mind, they naturally get drunk faster!" He spoke with double meaning, observing Murong Ding's expression.

  Murong Ding perhaps the medicine had not yet worn off, although he was awake, but still dazed and confused, his face showed no unusual expression, said: "Maybe you're right, well, this person is indeed hard to put up with! Don't say more, I'll go back first, a night out and my wife will nag again! This afternoon don't go out, wait for my notice, find you to talk about something!" At this time the sky was still floating with snowflakes, he ignored Gu Longfei's persuasion, insisted on going out.

  Murong Ding had just walked out, and the door was pushed open again. Gu Longfei thought it was Murong Ding coming back to nag about something, and his patience had already worn thin. He raised his voice and asked, "Is there anything else you want to say?" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a person standing in the doorway, wearing a long shirt with many snowflakes on it, staring at him in surprise!

  "Liu Fu? How did you come here? Are Xiaoru and the others alright?" Gu Longfei was also startled to see Liu Fu suddenly. Yesterday, Gu Longfei saw Liu Fu's family being killed, and in a fit of rage, he hastily said something before chasing after those horsemen! Now that Liu Fu wasn't at home dealing with the aftermath, but instead came here, could it be that something else has happened? He had already become a startled bird.

  Liu Fu saw Gu Long Fei's flustered expression and hastily said, "Nothing's wrong, nothing's wrong! They're all fine! Yesterday I saw you chasing after those people, and since they outnumbered you, I was afraid you'd be at a disadvantage. You were gone for the whole night, and everyone was worried about you, so I came to take a look. I didn't know where to find you, so I came to your house on a whim, and unexpectedly ran into you!" After finishing his words, a hint of relief appeared on his face!

  It turned out that way, and Gu Longfei's heart was also warm. After his wife and daughter left the world, there were still people in this world who cared about themselves. He said busily: "I will take good care of myself, you don't have to worry! Such a big snow, you still come out to find me, what if you get sick from the cold? Moreover, your sister's bones are not yet cold, and you should be at home dealing with the aftermath!"

  Liu Fu shook his head dejectedly and said, "Alas, death is just death, what's the use of grieving? This is also their fate, a matter predetermined by heaven, and no one can change it!" As he spoke, two lines of clear tears slid down his cheeks.

  The old dragon flew low and looked down at the ground, knowing that his family had lost their lives because of him. He quickly let him into the house and prepared to find a clean set of clothes to change out of his snow-soaked long shirt. Liu Fu waved his hand and said, "Young master, I think it's not safe here either. Why don't you hurry up and leave with me? We can find another place to live!" He didn't know that Gu Longfei had already discovered Murong Ding's conspiracy and estimated that he would no longer harm himself or his loved ones.

  An old dragon flew into the house, rummaged out a cotton-padded jacket he had worn before, and handed it to Liu Fu to put on. He said: "Don't worry, the danger has passed now. Once you warm up, go back and tell Li Kai-shan and others to move here to live. Wait until... wait until your affairs are settled, you can also come over and live with everyone together, so we can take care of each other!" His intention was to let Liu Fu bury his family members, then live with them, which could eliminate a lot of worries and resentment.

  Liu Fu nodded, understanding his thoughts. He looked around and saw that the cups and plates on the table were in disarray, the furniture in the house was scattered all over the place, and he knew that after Lin Qiaorou left, no one had cleaned up, so it became like this. His heart ached, and he went to move the bench from the middle of the hall to a spot against the wall, saying: "Wait for a few days, after I've finished my business on the other side, let Li Ge and Xiao Rourou come together and live here!"

  Jade Dragon saw Liu Fu helping to clean up and immediately understood his intention. His eyes turned red, and tears almost rolled out. He hastily rubbed his eyes and said: "I haven't been home for a few days, and when I came back, I didn't have the heart to tidy up, so it became like this, making you laugh!" After a pause, he suddenly said: "Yesterday, after leaving your house, I chased those horsemen. Their speed was swift, and I could only follow their hoof prints. I tracked them all the way to the city gate, but then they vanished without a trace. I inquired everywhere, but didn't get any news about those riders!" Although he already knew that the murderer who killed Liu Fu's family was Murong Ding and his subordinates, his cousin had made it clear that he couldn't kill him for revenge. At this time, he could only conceal the truth from Liu Fu; otherwise, how would he explain it to him?

  Liu Fu was taken aback, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he said: "It's not urgent for the time being. This Hankou is so big, sooner or later, I will find the murderer! At that time, it's not too late to avenge! Moreover, this group of people has a great background, I estimate that killing Qiaoru and others, as well as ambushing us outside Lige's house, may be the same group of people! It seems that this group of people has been eyeing us all, and everyone should be careful in the future. What I don't understand is when we offended these people, letting them launch such a ruthless pursuit against us?

  Liu Fu's analysis of this matter was surprisingly accurate, leaving Gu Long Fei slightly astonished. He hadn't expected that Liu Fu, who usually didn't speak much, would have such a clear mind. This matter had been deduced by him as if he had seen it with his own eyes. He thought to himself that he had underestimated Liu Fu in the past and from now on, many things should be discussed with him. Who knows, at critical moments, he might come up with some good ideas.

  Liu Fu saw that Gu Longfei was a bit pale, but otherwise fine, so he took his leave and returned home to put Li Dashan's anxious heart at ease. In the afternoon, Gu Longfei still had to go see Murong Ding, and didn't know what he wanted to discuss with him. If his guess was correct, as his cousin Xiao Cheng had said, they should be getting to the main topic - the Missouri Plan! So he didn't detain him, letting him leave on his own.

  Liu Fu had just left for a short while when the sound of knocking on the door came from outside. Gu Longfei smiled wryly, it had been a long time since he was home, and yesterday he had just returned, people kept coming to his door one after another, now he didn't know who it was again. He opened the door to take a look, and surprisingly, it was Wile, whom he hadn't seen for a long time!

  Will used to come here often and was quite familiar with Gu Longfei. Seeing him only opening the door after half a day, he grumbled: "Gu, what are you doing closing the door in broad daylight? You made me knock on the door for half a day!" Without waiting for Gu Longfei to fully open the door, he squeezed inside.

  Kung Fu Flying followed behind, laughing and saying: "I slept a bit longer, got up late, didn't hear you knock on the door!" In the foreign firm, he had a very good relationship with Will. At this time, seeing him rudely rushing into the house, he didn't think much of it, asking: "Today isn't Sunday, you're not helping Davis with his work, what are you doing here?"
