After being dumped, I turned around and married my ex-boyfriend's younger brother.

Chapter 241 Sister, you won't listen to me

"How much do you know about Charles before you dare to approach him?"

Gu Yanli's eyes were deep. "Besides, without evidence, he won't admit it."

“I will not go to Charles.”

"...So you're planning to go find Federer?"

Gu Yanli's face darkened even more. "Going to Federer is also not an option. Have you forgotten what he did to you the last few times? You still dare to go to him? Don't you want to die?"

"So that's why I came to find you?"

Su Yiran met the man's gaze, a smile playing on her lips and a slight raise of her eyebrows. "Ayan, aren't you going to help me?"

As Gu Yanli listened to her words, his tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed. "I can help, but you can't go. I'll have someone handle this."

"But if your people were to personally intervene, judging from the Ling family's attitude just now, wouldn't they be obliged to repay your life with their bodies?"

"Then we won't save them. It's none of our business anyway, but..."

Gu Yanli narrowed his eyes and leaned down to look at her. "Why are you so heartbroken over her? You weren't like this before."

"Ha! Didn't you say you didn't care to know?"

Su Yiran smiled, pushed him away, turned and went downstairs, "Ayan, don't miss me too much these days, remember to take good care of An'an."

"Don't worry, I won't think about it, I'll just look at you every day!"

Gu Yanli took the other person's hand from behind.

"Ok?"

Su Yiran looked at him questioningly, "You're going too?"

"I want to keep a close eye on you! So that you don't ever let your eyes fall on some other man."

"Then my gaze will remain fixed on Ayan, okay?"

"I reluctantly agree."

"..."

Barely?

Su Yiran twitched the corners of his mouth; even with that expression, the corners of his mouth were curled up.

……

France.

As soon as they got off the plane, they went to find Federico.

As soon as Su Yiran entered Federico's underground city, she heard cheerful laughter.

Yu Guangzhong caught a glimpse of a man and a woman embracing joyfully on the sofa.

"Federal, you are amazing."

Nailin lay half-naked in Federer's arms, a grape in her mouth, feeding it to the man in front of her, when she noticed someone approaching.

She chuckled softly, "Mr. Federer has other guests, so I won't disturb you any longer."

Nalin wisely got off Federer and swaggered away from Su Yiran.

Nalin has a top-notch figure, and even as a woman, Su Yiran couldn't help but take a second look.

Federer snapped out of his reverie, looked at the newcomers, and casually threw on a coat. “Excuse me, you two, I was being too clingy and only just noticed you. Please have a seat.”

Gu Yanli held Su Yiran's hand and looked at Federer, "How's the investigation going with my case?"

Federico’s gaze fell on the two hands clasped tightly in front of him. He slightly parted his thin lips, nodded, and glanced at his subordinates.

The subordinate handed them the documents.

"address."

Federer looked at Gu Yanli and asked, "Mr. Gu, are you so insecure holding Miss Su's hand like this?"

"..."

Su Yiran frowned and subconsciously glanced at Gu Yanli.

The man chuckled softly, "Federal thinks too highly of himself."

"Having self-confidence is not necessarily a bad thing."

Federer leaned back lazily on the sofa, his gaze falling on Su Yiran. "Getting someone out of Charles's hands is not a difficult task for me. As long as Miss Su gives the word, give me half an hour, and I can deliver the person to you in good condition."

Su Yiran chuckled, "So I have that much influence with Mr. Federer?"

"I'm always generous to the people I like."

Federer said, "Miss Ling and Mr. Gu were already engaged, so it's inconvenient for him to intervene. I am your best choice."

"..."

Federico makes a good point.

Su Yiran wanted to save Ling Wu, but she also didn't want this matter to cause any further trouble.

She held Gu Yanli's hand, looked up at him, and tried to see what he was thinking.

Gu Yanli pursed his lips tightly. "Tell me your conditions."

"As for the conditions..."

Federer's gaze fell on Su Yiran again. "Mr. Gu, please excuse me. I need to speak with Miss Su alone."

"..."

Gu Yanli's eyes were deep and thoughtful as he took Su Yiran's hand and left.

Su Yiran was pulled out by Gu Yanli, and once back in the car, the man's expression never improved.

She knew it must have been Federer's words that had angered him.

"Federer has gone too far, Ayan, let's never see him again!"

Su Yiran pouted, "So now we know Ling Wu's current location..."

"Don't worry, let's go back first."

Gu Yanli held her hand tightly.

“Actually, Ah Yan… if Federer’s demands aren’t excessive, it’s indeed the best option for him to step in.”

"……unnecessary!"

Gu Yanli said coldly, "Don't even think about it!"

*

Chamber of Secrets.

In the dim light, Ling Wu was tied to a chair with her hands behind her back, her face pale, her lips cracked, and her eyes closed.

The door to the secret room opened, and Charles walked in. Looking at the woman before him, his face was cold. "Did you tell me?"

"No."

The man beside him replied obsequiously, "Mr. Charles, don't worry, I know her. I have plenty of ways to get her to hand over the things."

"hurry up."

Charles turned away from the secret room with disdain.

As soon as I came out, I saw Liu Mei standing at the door.

Charles frowned. "Who sent you here? Were you following me?"

"...If you can come, why can't I?"

Liu Mei looked up at him and asked, "Who's locked up inside?"

"This has nothing to do with you, get out of here!"

Charles gripped her hand tightly and dragged her away, saying, "Sister, you haven't been very obedient lately."

Liu Mei was thrown to the ground, her arm hitting the floor hard and scraping her skin. She glanced at the mess on her arm and chuckled, "Charles, does it matter whether I'm obedient or not? You have nothing left to threaten me now. Aside from not being able to leave you, you can't control me!"

Her father didn't make it through; she lost her last remaining relative in the world.

Her brother, whom she once cherished so dearly, has become like this, and it has even affected her...

"Charles, you'll get your comeuppance!"

Liu Mei got up from the ground, met his gaze, smiled, and turned to leave.

Charles watched her retreating figure, his fists clenched, and was about to follow when someone appeared behind him.

“Mr. Charles, she said it.”

……

Charles retraced his steps, listening to their message, and said, "Go investigate; we must get the item."

"Yes."

The subordinates responded and immediately set about doing it.

Charles's gaze fell on the man in front of him, and he approached step by step, "If it weren't for your incompetence, would that thing have ended up in her hands?"

The man immediately knelt down. "I'm sorry, Mr. Charles, I know I was wrong."

"...The items have been found, but the people cannot be kept alive."
