"Big sister, you look so beautiful!"
The shortest of the three, Sanpao, looked up at Nanjin with starry eyes. "What is your relationship with Gu Shen gege?"
Nanjin smiled and adjusted her hair, trying to portray the image of a gentle and knowledgeable big sister. She spoke softly, "Little friend, I am Gu Shen's senior sister."
Sanpao's head shook like a tambourine. This was the first time he had seen such a beautiful lady.
But his intuition told him that the relationship between this beautiful big sister and Gu Shen gege was not ordinary!
He earnestly asked, "Big sister, I am already eight years old and I understand everything! Do you have any other relationship?"
Nanjin's forehead twitched.
This little brat, not even ten years old, always had strange thoughts in his head.
"The relationship between me and Gu Shen is indeed not that simple..." She smiled and said, "But it's a secret. I can tell you, but you can't tell anyone else."
Sanpao's eyes sparkled.
"Come here."
Nanjin gently crouched down and beckoned to Sanpao, motioning for the child to come closer.
Sanpao ran over excitedly, his ears getting closer.
Nanjin smiled and said, "I am Gu Shen's long-lost father."
Sanpao's face was full of shock.
He looked at the intellectual and gentle big sister in disbelief. "Really...?"
"What do you think?"
Nanjin placed a hand on Sanpao's head and asked with a smile, "Do you think I'm lying to you?"
【Danger, danger, danger, danger, danger.】
"How...how is that possible?"
Sanpao nodded vigorously, and at the same time, he quickly flattered, "Big sister, you are so beautiful, so whatever you say must be true."
Nanjin let go of her hand, satisfied, and watched the little brat run off happily with his toy. Leaning against the railing, she looked at the distant misty mountains and sighed softly to herself, "Really, besides his biological father, who would send him to such a place from far away..."
There was the sound of a car starting at the gate.

Nanjin frowned and saw a black car driving away through the rain.
She had noticed that car at the entrance of the orphanage. How could someone come to such a remote place? After chatting with the children just now, she found out that it was actually a "kind-hearted person" who came specifically to inspect the Morning Light and provide sponsorship.
The matter of the amnesty decree had not yet subsided, and the impeachment meeting against the teacher was still ongoing. It was not ruled out that someone might see Gu Shen as a "breakthrough"... After all, some people hiding in the dark were unimaginably wicked, and she had to be cautious.
Nanjin looked at the car disappearing into the rain and dialed a number.
"Zhong Shixiong... I saw a suspicious car at Gu Shen's orphanage. The license plate number is..."
...
...
Narrowly escaping a disaster.
Gu Shen and the orange cat exchanged a glance and let out a long sigh of relief.
Although he knew that the situation was not over yet, he couldn't help but smile.
Han Dang had been deceived into going to the apartment, and with his abilities, it wouldn't be difficult for him to sneak into his room. If he didn't find the "ruler" in the designated location, then his lie would be exposed.
He should immediately realize that he had been deceived.
But by then... it would be too late.
Even if Han Dang was furious, he wouldn't have the opportunity to catch him alone.
"Phew... it was really dangerous just now..."
Gu Shen didn't know whether he should be grateful or scared. In the 【True Words】 dream, he didn't suffer any harm because of Han Dang's character. He was a strange person who pursued perfection and liked to play roles.
This encounter came too suddenly, and he was unprepared.
He didn't know if he could escape from the other party's hands by relying on the "ruler" if he knew in advance that Han Dang existed.
"Based on the current situation, the probability of you escaping from Han Dang is very low." Chu Ling, as if she had telepathy, had a glimmer of light in her eyes and immediately guessed his thoughts. "If you use the 'ruler' at the risk of your life, the highest probability of escape is 1%."
"...So low?"
Gu Shen was already used to Chu Ling's telepathy, but the calculated probability made him smile bitterly.
One percent.
That was still the highest probability.
But in the next moment, Gu Shen felt relieved. He thought of the records in the file. Han Dang was a super strong person on the same level as Senior Sister Luo, a young leader who could stand alone in the Judgment Hall.
He hadn't even awakened his transcendent ability... It was too early for him to confront Han Dang.
Gu Shen activated his Shocking Thunder ability, adjusted his mindset, and silently calmed down. He didn't want to experience the feeling of time passing slowly in the 【True Words】 dream for the second time...
He suddenly understood why Nanjin was so desperate.
The confrontation of transcendent abilities was extremely dangerous, and the weak were like fish on a chopping board.
He would rather be exhausted from training every day and be paralyzed than experience the feeling of being controlled by others in the 【True Words】 dream again.
"Xiao Gu, that Mr. Han is really a good person."
Grandmother tapped the check and couldn't help but smile. "Young people like him, who are rich and generous, are not common in Daming City... I praised you so much earlier, and it seems to have worked. Mr. Han said he felt a connection with you, maybe you can become friends?"
"Friends..."Gu Shen found it somewhat amusing deep down.
When it was time to dispel the dream, Han Dang even didn't forget to plant a hypnotic spell on him... If the scenario were different, would he be killed directly by the "True Word"?
He couldn't be friends with such a person.
"Mr. Han is indeed a good man."
Since Han Dang had put on such a show, Gu Shen could only play along: "But after all, he is just an outsider."
He didn't want his grandmother to keep in touch with Han Dang.
"We can't rely on him. If there are any difficulties in the future, I will solve them." Gu Shen laughed, "I forgot to tell you, I got a scholarship of five hundred thousand this time."
"Ho...how much?"
His grandmother was stunned, "Five hundred thousand?"
"Five, hundred, thousand." Gu Shen chuckled. He had the same reaction when he first saw the balance on this card.
"Grandma, haven't you always said that I will be successful in the future?" He handed the card to his grandmother, "Now I am successful. When I said I would cover all the expenses here, I wasn't just talking. I was serious!"
His grandmother's eyes were a bit moist.
She never expected that the large sum of money Gu Shen mentioned would be this large.
"No, I can't take this money. You keep it."
She had just started to speak.
"The institute provides food, accommodation, and allocation, and I have a car, a house, and a job." Gu Shen quickly closed his grandmother's palm, "I'm doing very well! Alright, alright, just take this money with peace of mind... I have urgent matters to attend to, I'm leaving!"
Holding his cat, he swiftly moved through the rain curtain, pulling Nanjin along, and the two of them quickly returned to the car.
