After deliberately sending Gu Qianqian away, elder Mr. Gu held back for a long time before finally asking Bai Cen Xi, who was by his side, to summon Lu Zhanbei.
At first, Bai Cen Xi was unwilling, feeling resentful. After all, he could have accompanied Gu Qianqian home earlier, but for some reason, elder Mr. Gu insisted on letting the other bodyguard do it.
And now they're actually asking him to fetch Lu Zhan Bei...
He was displeased and frustrated, but elder Mr. Gu was, after all, elder Mr. Gu, an old friend of his father. Therefore, eventually, Bai Cenxi went, though reluctantly, to fetch Lu Zhanbei.
It was as if Lu Zhanbei had been waiting for the old man's summons, and Bai Cen Xi, after stepping out, quickly brought Lu Zhanbei in.
"Lu Zhanbei..."
Seeing him, the old man weakly greeted him first, then waved his hand faintly, dismissing Bai Cenxi from the room.
