Su Lai's expression was solemn. Words that could put Yu Ye in mortal danger showed how perilous the situation was.
"Do we have to go?"
Su Lai gazed at Yu Daohen, as if imploring him not to take the risk.
Yu Daohen understood Su Lai's meaning and nodded helplessly, "We must go."
"Alas~"
Su Lai sighed helplessly and murmured, "When do we leave? I'll go pack our gear."
Yu Daohen remained silent. Su Lai's face immediately darkened, and he cursed, "Damn it, you're not planning to go alone, are you? Even though I lost an arm, I'm not that much of a burden to you."
Yu Daohen smiled faintly and looked at Su Lai, slowly saying, "Old Su, you know my character, don't you?"
Su Lai took a deep drag from his cigarette and slowly exhaled, "You know I, Su Lai, am not afraid of death."
Yu Daohen nodded, "I know, but I don't want to die. You are my brother, and I want you to live well."
Su Lai didn't speak, seemingly lost in thought.
Time seemed to fall silent.
Su Lai looked up at the bright moon in the night sky and finally spoke slowly, "Do you really have to go?"
"Yes."
Yu Daohen nodded.
Su Lai shook his head and smiled, "It's okay if I don't go, but at least let me know where you're going."
Yu Daohen knew that if he told this guy, he would definitely follow secretly.
This was the last thing he wanted to see.
He didn't have many brothers. Now, the only ones he could entrust were Su Lai and Da Hu.
He really didn't want anything to happen to these two brothers.
But there was no point in hiding it from him anymore.
Yu Daohen answered truthfully, "To save someone!"
"Save someone?"
A lewd smile appeared on Su Lai's lips, "A man or a woman?"
Yu Daohen naturally understood what this guy was thinking and said speechlessly, "A man."
As soon as he said it, Yu Daohen immediately felt something was wrong.
This guy must have misunderstood.
As expected, Su Lai covered his backside with one hand and muttered to himself, "No wonder you've never touched women, you're into that kind of thing."
"..."
Yu Daohen looked at Su Lai with utter contempt.
What was this guy thinking? If he were to find someone, he would look for someone like him, a pretty boy.
No, he wasn't a pretty boy!
In any case, he definitely wouldn't look for a rough guy like Su Lai.
Yu Daohen suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, I have one more thing to ask of you."
Hearing this, Su Lai quickly stopped him, "Hold on, I don't have the ability to take over the Yan Huo Sect."
Yu Daohen shook his head, "It's not that."
Su Lai was a little confused, "Then what is it?"
Yu Daohen took out his cigarette case from his pocket, took out a cigarette, handed it to Su Lai, and then took out another one, putting it in his mouth. He said, "I hope you can keep it from Da Hu."
"Does Da Hu know?"
Su Lai blurted out, then immediately shut his mouth.
Yu Daohen smiled, "Do you think he doesn't know?"
Su Lai remained silent. The two looked at each other, understanding what the other was thinking.
Among their trio, Da Hu was the most sensible. Although he was usually quiet, he understood everything that was going on.
His usual actions must have already been noticed by Da Hu.
Su Lai slowly exhaled the smoke from his mouth and said, "Alright, I can keep it from Da Hu, but you have to promise me you'll come back alive!"
A smile bloomed on Yu Daohen's lips, and he nodded, "I promise!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, everything unspoken.
In Yu Yijun's hotel room, Da Hu sat by the door, smoking and muttering to himself, "These two guys, talking about something and keeping it from me, do they really think I don't know?"
Even if they didn't say anything, Da Hu could probably guess what it was.
They were a trio, but they insisted on carrying it alone.
Yu Daohen leaned against the railing, looking up at the moon, and suddenly thought of something, asking, "By the way, how are things between you and that eldest daughter of the Li family?"
Hearing this, Su Lai shook his head helplessly and sighed, "Alas, what else can I do? It's just like this."
Yu Daohen smiled faintly and teased, "No progress at all?"
Su Lai thought for a moment and shook his head, "That's not entirely true."
Hearing this ambiguous answer, Yu Daohen was full of curiosity, "Quick, quick, tell me how much progress has been made."
Su Lai touched the back of his head with a hint of embarrassment and smiled, "I added her WeChat yesterday."
Yu Daohen nodded repeatedly, "And then?"
"And then?"
Su Lai shook his head in confusion, "There's no 'and then'."
Yu Daohen was instantly speechless, "So you just added her on WeChat and didn't chat?"
Su Lai shook his head, "That's not it. We chatted a bit, but she seemed indifferent to me."
Hearing this, Yu Daohen patted Su Lai's shoulder and comforted him, "Old Su, don't be discouraged. There are plenty of fish in the sea, no need to pine for just one flower. You don't have to hang yourself on one tree. Believe me, you can find someone better."
Su Lai sighed deeply and nodded helplessly, "It can only be like this."
Yu Daohen looked at Su Lai and chuckled, "Old Su, let me see how you chatted with her."
Su Lai felt it was nothing and showed Yu Daohen the chat history.
As Yu Daohen looked at Su Lai's chat with Li Mumu, his expression began to change, and finally, he looked at Su Lai in disbelief.
Seeing Yu Daohen's exaggerated expression, Su Lai was a little confused, "Yu Ye, what's wrong? Did your mouth cramp?"
"I..."
Yu Daohen wanted to curse but ultimately held back, muttering, "Old Su, I finally know why she's indifferent to you."
Hearing this, Su Lai stared intently at Yu Daohen, eagerly asking, "Yu Ye, what's the reason?"
Yu Daohen had an expression of disappointment, "Look at this! Is this how people chat?"
From the chat history, the most frequent words Su Lai typed were:
Are you awake? Did you eat? What did you eat? Are you asleep...
This "four-question straight man" routine was perfectly displayed by Su Lai.
Describing him as a steel straight man would be an understatement; he should be called a titanium alloy straight man.
Yu Daohen began to boast, "Old Su, chatting is also an art. You need to pique her interest to keep the conversation going, understand?"
Su Lai suddenly reacted, "That's right, Yu Ye, you have so many fangirls, how do you chat?"
Yu Daohen's lips curled up, and he proudly said, "Does this brother need to chat? My face alone surpasses all conversation skills."
Seeing Yu Daohen's smug look, Su Lai looked at him with contempt and couldn't help but curse, "Get lost."
Yu Daohen wasn't angry but chuckled, "Old Su, I think that Li Huanhuan doesn't have a bad impression of you, so there's still hope."
Su Lai looked skeptical, "Really?"
