The other person chuckled softly, a tingling sensation that made Ji Zhaoming forget to exert any force, and he stared blankly as the red string was put around his wrist.
"May you be safe." The man bent down and placed a kiss on Ji Zhaoming's wrist.
Seeing that Ji Zhaoming still wanted to say something, the man chuckled and said, "If you really don't want it, just consider it as temporarily protecting you in my place. You can give it back to me the next time you see me."
Ji Zhaoming was taken aback: "You're leaving?"
The man shook his head, said nothing, but pointed to the sky and said, "It's getting cold."
However, Ji Zhaoming was in the garage, and it was still dark around him.
He stared blankly at Gu Yunzhou.
Yes, how could he forget? It was such an important thing, why would he forget it?
Ji Zhaoming forgot what the person looked like, but somehow, he still managed to hand over the precious peace charm to Gu Yunzhou.
Ji Zhaoming asked inwardly, "System, what exactly is this world?"
It's so strange; he can pause, yet everything revolves around him.
The system remained silent.
Gu Yunzhou said, "Let's go upstairs."
Ji Zhaoming placed his hand in Gu Yunzhou's palm.
As their warm palms touched, Ji Zhaoming felt as if he could hear the other person's faint heartbeat through those hands.
never mind.
It won't hurt him in the end.
Ji Zhaoming felt like he was truly possessed. Despite how bizarre this place was, and how the system had dragged him into this strange world, he still naturally trusted the system and Gu Yunzhou, and even believed that this world would not harm him.
Da da da.
In the quiet garage, faint footsteps could be heard.
Gu Yunzhou's expression turned serious. He abruptly pulled Ji Zhaoming behind him, his eyes like sharp knives, and looked towards the corner, coldly asking, "Who?"
A person slowly emerged from the corner.
Even though the garage was very dark, Gu Yunzhou recognized the visitor at a glance.
Gu Yunyang.
He looked extremely disheveled and walked in this direction, his expression filled with dissatisfaction and anger.
It seems the commander gave Gu Yunyang a good scolding after returning.
Gu Yunyang sneered, and seeing the two holding hands, he said sarcastically, "You two have been having a good time lately."
Gu Yunzhou sighed deeply and called the commander directly.
Knowing that Gu Yunzhou was Ji Zhaoming's "agent," the commander simply set Gu Yunzhou as his primary focus. Upon receiving the message, he immediately contacted him and asked, "What's wrong?"
Gu Yunzhou was too lazy to waste words, so he simply pointed his personal terminal at Gu Yunyang opposite him and said lazily, "Do you still remember what you promised us?"
Even Gu Yunyang was able to sneak in, making Gu Yunzhou start to doubt the room's security system.
The commander's face instantly turned cold, and he said, "I'll be right there."
The call was disconnected.
Gu Yunzhou then slowly replied to Gu Yunyang's earlier question: "I'm alright, but I don't think you're doing very well?"
Gu Yunyang stared blankly at Gu Yunzhou.
A surge of jealousy welled up inside me.
Gu Yunzhou was clearly the one who was abandoned, wasn't he?
But precisely because of a few words, he ended up worse off than Gu Yunzhou.
On what grounds?
He is the true heir of the Gu family.
Driven by his inner darkness, Gu Yunyang suddenly laughed. He said, "It's not that bad, but even if I'm in a terrible situation, I wouldn't be so bad as to not even know how my own parents died."
Gu Yunzhou suddenly stopped and gripped Ji Zhaoming's hand slightly tighter.
Gu Yunzhou said, "Do you know what you're saying?"

Chapter 54
Thank you, Master.
Normally, Gu Yunyang would never have told Gu Yunzhou these things.
After all, this was done by the Gu family, and if it got out, it would damage the Gu family's image. Gu Yunyang only found out about this by chance.
Normally, Gu Yunyang kept all these things to himself and dared not tell anyone. Even when he was reduced to this state and came to find Gu Yunzhou, he never thought of saying these things.
He always believed that the Gu family would still lend him a hand.
When he saw Gu Yunzhou and Ji Zhaoming acting so intimately, his anger overwhelmed his reason, and he blurted out those words without thinking.
On what grounds?
Ji Zhaoming is currently the only omega in the world, and his rank is S-level. Just based on this status alone, he would be sought after by everyone, not to mention that he is currently Gu He's only focus and the city lord of the garbage planet.
Such a beloved person happens to be so close to Gu Yunzhou.
There is more than one S-class aplha than Gu Yunzhou, but there is only one S-class omgea, Ji Zhaoming.
Seeing that the dilapidated garbage planet was getting better and better under Ji Zhaoming's leadership, Gu Yunyang's jealousy grew stronger and stronger.
Gu Yunzhou has always been so lucky.
He thought that Gu Yunzhou's luck had run out when the Gu family stripped him of his identity and he was forced to eke out a living on a garbage planet.
However, that is not the case.
As soon as the words left his mouth, Gu Yunyang realized he had made a mistake, glanced to the side, and remained silent.
Gu Yunzhou moved closer and closer to Gu Yunyang.
He had long suspected the deaths of his parents, but at that time he was not on the Imperial Star. The Gu family took this opportunity to hastily cremate his parents, and Gu Yunzhou was expelled from the Imperial Star before he could find out the truth.
He lost his home completely.
Gu Yunzhou received some preferential treatment in the Gu family because of his abilities. It was because of this that he saw the difference between the direct descendants and the collateral branches of the Gu family. Even though he worked so hard, he was not as well treated as Gu Yunyang.
But he always thought that since everyone was a member of the Gu family, no matter what, they couldn't possibly write two characters related to Gu.
He doesn't care about Gu Jia's pampering.
However, Gu Yunzhou's parents grew up in the Gu family and hoped to be noticed by the Gu family, so Gu Yunzhou swallowed his pride and helped the Gu family.
And what was the result?
He lowered his voice, his eyes dark and unfathomable, and said, slowly and deliberately, "What do you know?"
Seeing that Gu Yunyang was still evading the issue, Gu Yunzhou scoffed and asked, "What are you still hoping for? Do you think the Gu family will still value you?"
Gu Yunyang had been pampered by the Gu family since childhood, which was why he was so jealous of Gu Yunzhou. Despite being from a collateral branch of the family, Gu Yunzhou received the patriarch's favor. He loudly proclaimed, "What else? I am a direct descendant of the Gu family, unlike people like you. Even if I do nothing—"
Gu Yunzhou sneered.
Ji Zhaoming stood to the side, looking at Gu Yunzhou's cold profile.
Like a block of ice that wouldn't melt even if burned by a raging fire, a cold blue light burned continuously within the ice, as if at the cost of life itself.
He looked like ice, yet the strength with which he held Ji Zhaoming's hand was surprisingly great.
Gu Yunzhou is not in a good state.
Ji Zhaoming glanced at Gu Yunyang, then silently touched the back of Gu Yunzhou's hand lightly.
Gu Yunzhou was taken aback, his muscles slowly relaxed, and he loosened his grip on Ji Zhaoming's hand.
"Gu Yunzhou," Ji Zhaoming called out in a low voice.
Even though he only called out Gu Yunzhou's name, it still had a calming effect.
Gu Yunzhou replied softly, "I'm here."
He was no longer as helpless as before; his master was still waiting for him.
The anger gradually subsided, but that didn't mean Gu Yunzhou didn't intend to settle the score.
Of course he knew what Gu Yunyang hated.
He blinked gently, turned to look at Ji Zhaoming, touched the little fur ball on Ji Zhaoming's clothes, and asked, "Are you cold? Should we go back first? Gu He should have turned on the heating."
Ji Zhaoming shook his head, then nodded, and said, "It's cold, so hurry up and come back with me."
Gu Yunzhou chuckled softly, "Are you trying to be cute with me?"
Ji Zhaoming was taken aback, his face flushed red, and when he caught a glimpse of Gu Yunyang out of the corner of his eye, he could only blush and say, "Yes."
The two acted as if there was no one else around, chatting casually, which only fueled Gu Yunyang's anger.
Gu Yunyang stepped forward and said, "Didn't you hear me? Don't you want to know the cause of your parents' death?"
"Of course I want to," Gu Yunzhou replied slowly, "but I have a long life ahead of me, I mean, I have a long life ahead of me."
As for the Gu family...
Gu Yunzhou laughed: "If the Gu family will protect you, then they will. Anyway, it won't be long."
Gu Yunzhou shook his personal terminal: "The commander has arrived."
As he finished speaking, another set of footsteps echoed from the parking garage.
The footsteps approached the parking garage quickly. The commander saw Ji Zhaoming standing unharmed in the same spot and then glanced around.
No war occurred.
He then let out a soft breath and said, "I'm glad you're alright, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."
With a wave of his hand, the men behind the commander immediately stepped forward and pinned Gu Yunyang down.
