Gu Ci stared fixedly at the entrance of MSS Gate. While she quietly pondered, both Dr. North and Qin Wan felt a bit uneasy. Qin Wan asked, "Cici, what are you thinking?"
"I'm thinking about Lu Zhiyuan," Gu Ci blurted out.
Dr. North and Qin Wan exchanged puzzled glances, and Gu Ci, realizing her slip, quickly corrected herself, "I mean, I'm wondering why he's so quiet."
"What's wrong with that?" Qin Wan didn't quite understand. "Even if Black Hawk doesn't actively intervene, they're likely watching from a distance, waiting to reap the benefits."
Gu Ci shook her head, "Lu Zhiyuan and his brother have been trying to eliminate each other for so many years. With such a major incident happening in the underworld, his silence is unusual."
"Maybe it's because of you?" Qin Wan speculated.
Gu Ci responded calmly, "He and I are different."
Dr. North felt a pang in his heart and whispered, "Cici, don't dwell on it. Let's watch how things unfold."
