Chapter 917 Tomb Raider Notes 5
The person in charge of receiving them was a middle-aged woman who was much younger than the dean.
Listening to the conversation of the adults, this person was the vice director of the welfare home.
And these two people who came were the same people who were watching over me outside just now.
Following the original owner's personality, Gu Wusi didn't greet anyone or join in the fun; he went straight out after going downstairs.
"Gu Wusi!!" He had only taken a few steps when someone called out to him.
She had no choice but to stop and turn around: "Is there something you need?"
Huo Xiuxiu walked over: "Are you here to visit the children at the orphanage too?"
"Why are you asking this? My affairs are none of your business, are they?"
This is how the original owner spoke to outsiders, including the Black Bear we met yesterday; his attitude towards him was also rather unserious.
Anyway, I just speak directly and don't really care about what others think, but I don't mean anything by it.
"I wasn't trying to pry into your affairs, I just happened to run into you and asked casually."
Even though Gu Wusi spoke like that, Huo Xiuxiu didn't think much of her, which was really strange.
And it was indeed I who asked first; they have the right not to answer.
Gu Wusi didn't say anything upon hearing this, and casually glanced at the distance.
Over there, Xie Yuchen, who was watching them talk but hadn't come over, nodded to her in greeting.
Gu Wusi didn't respond to him, and turned to leave without any expression on her face.
"Xiuxiu, we should go back now."
"Little Flower Brother, she doesn't seem as exaggerated as people say, she's just a bit unique."
She hadn't seen any arrogant or disdainful emotions in Gu Wusi's eyes just now.
Although he seemed a bit difficult to talk to, his eyes were calm, and he didn't seem like an impulsive or easily angered person.
"Hmm, that does not quite match the rumors," Xie Yuchen said casually.
He didn't pay much attention to it.
On his way back, Gu Wusi was still thinking about how to find clues.
If all else fails, she can only use the bloodline tracking technique to find out if she still has any relatives alive.
We need to go back and prepare before discussing this further.

Gu Wusi's birthday arrived as scheduled, but the day before, the old lady of the house forbade him from going out.
After breakfast, various dresses were delivered to her door, and she was pulled along to try them on one by one.
From 10:30 am to a little after 4 pm, we only stopped for two hours for lunch.
After trying on about ten more items, the old lady finally calmed down, mainly because she was overwhelmed by the sight.
"Sweetie, you look good in everything. I really can't choose. Just pick your favorite one."
"Mom, don't you have any idea how beautiful your daughter is? I'm just naturally beautiful and I can't hide it."
"You shameless brat, you're being shameless again."
"Hey, you said that first."
"Hurry up and choose, we still need to choose jewelry later."
"No need. Once you've chosen the dress, just pick out any jewelry for me."
Gu Wusi glanced at the dresses and casually chose a nude halter-neck fitted long tulle dress.
The design is simple, but the dress is covered in rhinestones, and the halter neckline is also adorned with a ring of larger rhinestones.
Grandma Gu was unhappy with her lack of enthusiasm: "No, tomorrow is your birthday banquet. You can't just go through the motions. You have to make a stunning appearance."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the dress that Gu Wusi had chosen.
"Isn't this color too plain? How about we change to something brighter?"
"Grandma, didn't you see how sparkly the diamonds on that dress are? It's not plain at all."
At that time, the bright-colored dresses were mostly bright red, fuchsia, emerald green, royal blue, etc., which were somewhat gaudy.
Although people with good looks and figures can dress very well.
But in order to gradually change his style, Gu Wusi still chose a nude-colored dress.
The main ones are bright colors, which are less likely to make her less noticeable. At a banquet, she will be easily spotted.
How could she possibly leave early and slip away quietly?
"Put this dress on and let me see it again." The old lady held up the dress and gestured to Gu Wusi.
Should we try again? Gu Wusi felt a little like running away.
"I just checked, it's perfect. Don't worry, it will definitely not embarrass our family."
"Since you're free anyway, we can take our time choosing."
"I have something to do, um... I have an appointment, ma'am, I have to go now, I won't be back for dinner."
With that, Gu Wusi retreated to the door, quickly turned around and left, afraid of being dragged back to try on the dress.
The old lady chased after him to the door and shouted, "Hey, good boy, you haven't even chosen your jewelry yet, and you're running around when it's almost dinner time!"
"I'll leave the jewelry to you; my dear mother has the best taste."
"This girl..." the old lady said with a smile as she went back.
Gu Wusi finally let out a sigh of relief after getting into the car.
She had never thought trying on a dress would be so tiring before.
In order to avoid going home, she had no choice but to go out and play with other people.
I found the contact information for two of my best friends; I couldn't get through to one by phone, and it took me ages to get through to the other.
"Hey, Wusi, bang bang bang—"
As soon as the call connected, all that was heard was Ye Bing calling his name, followed by a series of loud bangs and crackling sounds.
"What happened? Where are you?"
Gu Wusi knew immediately that a fight was taking place over there.
After waiting for a while, Ye Bing replied, panting, "Don't come any closer. They're just a bunch of useless trash. We can handle them."
"Stop talking nonsense, give me the address."
Even if she misses the fight, it would be good for her to go and join in the fun.
"In an alley not far from the usual spot, snap..."
Gu Wusi must have dropped his phone on the ground. After seeing the call end, he slammed on the gas pedal.
While trying to remember where this old place was.
She managed to cover a journey that usually takes more than half an hour in just over ten minutes.
I feel like it won't be long before all the points on my driver's license are deducted.
As soon as I got out of the car and slammed the door shut, I walked into the alley and heard the chaotic sounds of fighting inside.
It's dark now, and it sounds like they're still fighting fiercely inside; they've even used sticks.
Gu Wusi walked over, still a distance away.
At the same time, a young man ran quickly out of the alley.
He was holding something in his hand and darted away like the wind.
Gu Wusi glanced around and continued walking. When he saw the chaotic entanglement of about twenty people inside, he decided to go and help.
"Wu Si, don't let that person get away. He has a bag in his hand that he wants to retrieve."
Before she could get there, she heard Wang Guilu shout.
During a lull in her fight, seeing that her own men were all entangled and unable to break free, she spotted Gu Wusi and her eyes lit up as she called out.
"Okay, leave it to me."
Upon hearing this, Gu Wusi saw that they were all fine for the time being.
Without hesitation, he turned around and left the alley, watching the man run out, now more than fifty meters away from him.
With her hands empty, she took off her high heels without thinking and threw them over.
