His Rui

Chapter 618 Will Mi Luan Leave?

　　(The same arc is continued. Since I was getting bored with the same title, I changed it :))

”No one is leaving.”

Gu Li’s cold voice sounded as he walked towards Mi Luan who was kneeling on the ground to make a tent with a middle-aged man, Gu Li was still unfamiliar.

When Gu Li first stepped in front of Mi Luan, his cold eyes first settled on the man who had just talked to Mi Luan about leaving.

His cold and sharp eyes narrowed slightly as he asked the man who had already started sweating.

”Who are you?”

”I…I…”

The middle-aged man who was almost reaching old age was suddenly at the lack of words. Gu Li’s cold and sharp eyes made him unable to think anything. This much intimidated …he had never felt before in his life by anyone’s presence except for the little brat’s father who was always carrying an ugly face around him as if he owed that man something he would never be able to return.

Helpless and afraid, the man could only look at the small figure standing beside him and said in a stuttering voice.

”Little Ru….”

However, Mi Luan’s eyes flickered suddenly and he spoke before the middle-aged man could complete his words.

”Mi Luan will immediately introduce Shifu to Elder Brother.”

The middle-aged man seemed to have a confused expression on his face when he heard the word ‘Mi Luan’.

Who was this Mi Luan?!

Mi Luan didn’t notice his shifu’s confused face. Even if he noticed he didn’t pay any attention to it. However, there was a little change in the surrounding temperature.

Mi Luan didn’t feel it but the shadow guards who sensed this change looked at their senior brother wondering how he relaxed so suddenly.

But no one could know the answer to this question. After all, no one knew how happy Gu Li was when he heard Mi Luan calling him his Elder Brother.

His anger vanished suddenly and his eyes looking at Mi Luan’s shifu were also less intimidating.

”Elder Brother.”

Mi Luan spoke to Gu Li calmly but Gu Li’s eyes were very soft when he looked at Mi Luan who continued speaking

”Before Mi Luan had been found out by you, Mi Luan was living with Shifu.”

Mi Luan’s shifu finally had an understanding expression on his face. So the little fella’s name for these people was Mi Luan. He also sensed that Gu Li looked a little gentle and soft now stepped forward and introduced himself as he suddenly seemed to realize that according to his age, he should not be depending on his young pupil. It should have been the other way around instead.

”This one is called Master Wong. I lived in the village that is just outside this forest. Mi Luan is my disciple. Two days ago, I realized that Little Luan was lost and I entered the forest to search look around and see If I could find Little Luan around. I am grateful to you and your people for taking care of my disciple.” 

Master Wong finished and was very satisfied with whatever he said. However, his mustache trembled when he noticed that Gu Li again looked very cold. 

Now, what is wrong with him?

Confused and panicked Master Wong looked at his little disciple who looked calm but was also looking at Gu Li as if waiting for him to say anything.

However, Gu Li seemed to believe more in doing than speaking. Soon he stepped forward and hold Master Wong’s collar in his firm grip. Master Wong’s body trembled as he felt his leg leaving the ground and heard Gu Li’s cold voice.

”So you are Xiao Luan’s Master. Where were you when that man was trying to kill Xiao Luan?”

Master Wong’s eyes widened at Gu Li’s words and he looked at Mi Luan with worry, shock, and confusion as he said

”Kill…who tried to kill little R…I mean little Luan and why?”

Gu Li’s eyes narrowed and they only became colder when he realized that the so-called Master of his Xiao Luan didn’t even know anything.

He raised his hand higher and Master Wong who was hung in the air was trembling fiercely.

It was only when Mi Luan stepped forward and pulled Gu Li’s sleeve did Gu Li looked down at him. The coldness in his eyes reduced to some extent when he looked at Mi Luan.

”Elder Brother, Shifu is not at fault. That man abducted me when shifu was sleeping. Shifu didn’t know anything until now.”

Master Wong hurriedly nodded his head and spoke in a bit strained and choked voice.  

”Yes, Yes…”

Gu Li looked reluctant but seeing Mi Luan’s clean black eyes and calm eyes, he put down Master Wong. Master Wong inhaled as much air as he could.

After that, he hurriedly stepped in front of Mi Luan and held his hands.

”Are you alright? Who was that man? Did he …wait …Little Ru…”

Master Wong stopped amidst his words when he saw Mi Luan’s eyes going a wide little and he immediately changed his words.

Since his head was hiding Mi Luan’s face, Gu Li never saw this exchange.

”Little Luan, was that man the coachmen you had come with?”

When Mi Luan nodded his head, Master Wong’s eyes widened and he slapped his thighs angrily as he said

”I should have known it. He also disappeared on the same day, you disappeared. That b****d…but Little …ah Luan…why did he try to kill you?”

Mi Luan didn’t have an answer to this question so he just went silent while Gu Li who was hearing all this frowned.

Coachman…Xiao Luan had a coachman.

It was only at that moment that Gu Li realized that he never thought that Xiao Luna also must be having his own family. He must be having a life before he entered the forest also. 

He one-sidedly decided to keep him all to himself…here in Youxio and he also made out a future plan for him.

Gu Li suddenly felt a tightness inside his chest when he heard Master Wong saying to Mi Luan in a worry-filled voice.

”We will leave tomorrow morning, Little Luan. I can’t let you out of my sight now for a single moment.”
