Chen Long and Yin Hu have always been diligent and responsible.

With the two of them guarding outside, it’s impossible for Bao Gucheng to leave without their knowledge.

Gu Yuzhi became alert and exchanged a glance with Gu Qiusha, then reassured Elder Bao:

"You’re right, Elder. Gucheng must have seen us getting married, thought about himself being single and felt a bit depressed, so he left without saying goodbye after delivering his gift. I’ll have someone send you home later, Elder. I’ll also bring back a jar of Osmanthus Brew that you love..."

Mentioning his beloved brew, Elder Bao immediately put his dear son to the back of his mind: "Yu Zhi is really thorough in his work. Old Man Gu, how lucky you are to have such a good son... No wait, a great son-in-law, haha..."

As the atmosphere eased, Gu Yuzhi quietly instructed, "Check the surveillance, quickly. See what time Mr. Bo left."

Gu Qiusha also felt a bit anxious: "Also check on Jing Yan, this kid is missing too. His mother is pregnant, gallivanting everywhere without thinking of worrying his elders."

However, the security room’s report turned out to be quite a shock: "No exits show Mr. Bo and Mr. Gu leaving. They haven’t even left the hall. According to custom, the wedding ceremony doesn’t have the surveillance on, so we don’t know if they’re still inside the hotel."

How could they still be in the hotel?

The banquet hall doesn’t have a direct elevator to the guest rooms. Although there are twenty tables with many people, someone with Mr. Bo’s stature and demeanor couldn’t possibly be hiding among them. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"I’ve also asked the men, Mr. Bo hasn’t gone back to the base. Tonight, he already canceled all arrangements to attend Miss Wu’s wedding, and there’s no urgent business." News from Chen Long came in too.

This is very strange indeed!

"So, Mr. Bo disappeared into thin air at our wedding banquet?" Gu Qiusha found herself unable to comprehend.

"What’s going on with Xiao Yan?" Gu Yuzhi wasn’t worried about Bao Gucheng, an adult, having issues; he was more concerned about Gu Jingyan.

"Could it be that among the guests there’s someone with a grudge against Mr. Bo and took this chance..." As a manga artist, Gu Qiusha’s mind couldn’t help but conjure up various melodramatic stories about wedding revenge.

Chen Long’s lips twitched: "That’s already been checked; today’s guests are all old acquaintances from the capital circle, none are suspicious. If we talk about grudges with Mr. Bo, then Nangong Mo counts as one."

"Nan Gong is missing too!" Gu Qiusha exclaimed, "He left early!"

Chen Long frowned: "This person is highly suspicious, I’ll go check again..."

While speaking, a deep and chilling laugh sounded outside the hall: "Randomly putting the hat of suspicion on someone, Bao Gucheng truly has trained a fine group of men!"

The man walking in with a swagger, wasn’t it Nangong Mo himself.

And the youth coming in behind Nangong Mo was Gu Jingyan!

Gu Yuzhi stepped forward and pulled Gu Jingyan over, scrutinizing him carefully. He found the boy showed no abnormalities, except for his face looking slightly pale and tired under the chandelier: "Where have you been, Xiao Yan? Did you see Bao Gucheng?"

Gu Jingyan shook his head slowly and said, "I received some archaeological news... and went out for a while."

"Stay away from him." Gu Yuzhi harbored no goodwill towards Nangong Mo.

Gu Jingyan merely nodded glumly without saying much.

Gu Qiusha politely exchanged pleasantries with Nangong Mo: "Fourth Master, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend my wedding. Earlier, we were just anxious about Mr. Bo, please don’t take it to heart. By the way, the portrait you asked me to draw last time, I’ve finished it. When do you have time to check if there’s anything wrong or need modifications?"

In the tea room of Nangong Mo’s manor living room, the best spot was missing a portrait of himself. Gu Qiusha had previously agreed to paint and frame it, but had been too busy with wedding preparations to deliver it; now was the perfect chance to bring it up.

However, Nangong Mo, who had previously valued the painting immensely, was now dismissive: "No need to look. Keep it as a memento."

Gu Qiusha was momentarily at a loss for how to respond!
