When Bright Moon Encounter the Dark Clouds

Chapter 54: Wu Yu 08 (1)

Tan Jiao sat behind me as I rode my motorbike at full throttle, rushing toward the Zhu residence.

While cruising there, she tried to call Shen Shiyan, but no one answered.

Hes probably busy right now and is unable to answer my call! She said it with a hint of annoyance.

I looked through the rearview mirror at her widened eyes. Its fine even if he doesnt answer. You have me.

She agreed casually before grabbing onto my shirt gently with reservations.

Looking ahead, I told her to hold on before pressing on the throttle again. She gasped in response and immediately placed her hands tightly around my waist while pressing her head against my back.

I said nothing as we cruised along the road with the blazing sun above us.

Wu Yu, when did you learn how to ride a motorbike? Was it within this year? she asked.

No. I learned how to ride motorbikes when I was in college. My family was poor at that time, so I could only use my friends motorbike.

Oh.

After a brief pause, she said, Ill buy a bike later and learn how to ride them. Perhaps you can teach me?

I stayed silent for a moment before saying, Your driving skills are already questionable. Dont you think driving a bike would be too much for you?

What? She punched me in the back and whined, Youre making fun of me? I didnt know youre like that!

I chuckled and said, Those are the facts.

Let me off! she said with an obviously fake angry voice.

I pressed on the accelerator again, and her grip immediately tightened. She pressed against my back again and muttered, This is not fair.

I made no remarks, only grabbing her hand and placing it higher on my chest. Her grip tightened further, which caused my heart to instantly pump faster.

She said nothing more and remained in this position until we finally arrived at the Zhu family residence.

Although the sun was still high in the sky, I noticed that all the curtains in the house were shut. A car was parked outside the house.

Something was not right, and we immediately went to knock on the door.

However, no one responded.

I knocked harder on the door, creating a very audible bang. If anyone was in the house, they would not be able to ignore this. As expected, Yan Yuans voice soon sounded, Who is it?

Taking a glance at Tan Jiao, I noticed the somewhat anxious look on her face, so I nudged her to stand behind me.

The door opened halfway and revealed a calm-faced Yan Yuan standing there. His facial features now seemed eerily similar to the Zhu family members.

His face was somewhat red, and a layer of sweat covered his forehead. It was a hot day, but he wore a black long sleeve shirt and trousers that seemed to be stained. When he saw us, a strange look briefly flickered in his eyes before he promptly put on a smile to greet us. Its you guys. I havent had the chance to thank you two for saving my family. Is there something I can help you with?

I smiled as well and said, Mr. Yan. We have some doubts that your family could help us with. Are you free for a chat?

Yan Yuan became quiet for a good while. Then he said, Sure. What do you want to know?

The door never opened fully, always blocking the view into the house. I took a step forward and said, Were looking for senior Zhu.

Yan Yuan let out a chuckle. That would be troublesome. My father-in-law is sound asleep after returning from that gruesome ordeal. It hasnt been easy on his old body. Perhaps you could come back tomorrow? Ill tell him when he wakes up.

Thats fine. Ill talk to your second brother-in-law then.

His expressions changed slightly. Unfortunately, my second brother-in-law and his wife have gone out.

What about miss Zhu Jirui then?

She went out too.

The two of us fell into a lull before he smiled again and said, Mr. Wu, Miss Tan. I am very thankful for how willing you two have been in helping my family. Our family will find a day to thank you two. However, if theres nothing I can do for you now, then Ill be going in to rest.
