The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

Chapter 815 Return to the Manor

Nearly five hours later, at 12:30 noon, the two buses carrying the treasure hunting team finally stopped at the gate of the Gallo family's manor in Milan.

The butler, dressed in a neat suit, was waiting at the door early with five maids who took care of the manor affairs. There was not even a trace of impatience on any of their faces.

On the first bus, the first person to get off was our tour guide Mario.

After he mouthed something silently to the butler Emilo, Emilo's expression changed slightly, almost imperceptibly.

The more than 30 distinguished guests were all safe and sound, and he could finally give a satisfactory explanation to the clan leader and Young Master Kevin.

When Xu Yiyu got off the bus, the housekeeper and the maid behind her bowed to her respectfully and appropriately, with a perfect smile on their faces.

"Ms. Xu, welcome back."

"Thank you for welcoming me, Mr. Butler, and thank you for helping me keep the luggage and supplies I left in the manor during this time."

"It's my job, Miss Xu, you're too polite."

After everyone on the two buses got off, Emilo first asked several maids to take everyone's luggage. However, he did not pay too much attention to the increase or decrease of the luggage. Instead, he took a step back and made way for the wide main road behind him to everyone in the treasure hunting team.

Lin Yi still held Honghong and followed at the end of the line. Honghong also declined the wheelchair prepared by the maid and insisted on walking to the manor by herself.

Xu Yiyu led all the members of the treasure hunting team forward a few steps, and then they saw several figures rushing out from the gate of the manor house.

Her superior eyesight allowed her to see the faces of the three people at a glance, and a smile from the heart appeared on her face.

"I am back."

"Glad to see you back, CC."

Kevin with light blond hair and Gu Qiu with black hair stood in front of Xu Yiyu. Although their breathing was still a little unstable from running just now, they still restrained themselves and sincerely conveyed their heartfelt welcome to her.

Huang Niao, who was a few steps behind the two men, stopped beside Kevin and Gu Qiu. After his eyes met Xu Yiyu's in the air, he walked towards her with his arms open.

Xu Yiyu accepted the welcoming hug calmly.

Huang Niao took advantage of this brief hug to whisper something in Xu Yiyu's ear.

"Thank you for finding someone to rescue me as soon as possible, my dear Yiyu."

"Xiao Niao, since you call me sister, don't be polite to me."

Xu Yiyu patted Huang Niao's back gently, and after she stood up, he winked at her playfully.

She, Xu, didn't do anything. The tip-off was entirely the work of her own son. She just passed a simple message to the Gallo family.

When Xu Yiyu saw Gu Qiu beside Kevin hesitant to speak, he turned his eyes away slightly, glanced at his own son who was still floating in the air looking at everyone, and then turned his gaze back.

The two of them had already formed a tacit understanding. The next moment, Xu Yiyu heard the simultaneous information report given to her by her own Tongzi in the world of consciousness.

After taking a few seconds to digest all of Gu Qiu's whereabouts during this period, Xu Yiyu did not let him speak first, but spoke before him.

"How long have you been in Yidali? How is Qingqing doing in France? Xiaoqiu, have you gone to see her?"

When Gu Qiu heard Xu Yiyu speak first, the hesitant look on his face finally faded away, and his whole state was visibly more relaxed.

"I just came here after visiting my elder sister in France. She has been too busy lately and doesn't have much time to come to Ydali, so I came here for her."

——And he also helped out a little within his ability.

Gu Qiu swallowed the second half of his sentence. Xu Yiyu, who learned about Gu Qiu's movements during this period through Tongzi, immediately understood his unspoken meaning.

"Yes, Mr. Gu also helped me with a small favor. I will always remember it."

The reason why Huang Niao did not leave Milan these days was not only to wait for Xu Yiyu to lead the team back safely, but also to thank Gu Qiu in person.

Although the gentleman who "tamed" Felice looked like an extremely dangerous person, he was a man of his word.

If Mr. Simone hadn't revealed the truth to her intentionally or unintentionally before leaving, she probably wouldn't have known until now that he had acted at the request of Gu Qiu Zhinuo.

When Xu Yiyu and Huang Niao's eyes fell on Gu Qiu, the young man scratched his cheek a little embarrassedly. A few suspicious red streaks climbed up his cheeks, and he turned his eyes away involuntarily.

Being thanked seriously in person... He really couldn't handle it.

Kevin pursed his lips and smiled, but before his smile fully spread out, it instantly faded like a tide when he saw Lin Yi and Tan Taihong at the end of the team.

That lovely little lady was probably the one who was most seriously injured in this team operation.

He walked up to the two of them, squatted down a few dozen centimeters in front of Tan Tai Hong, extended a hand to her like a gentleman, but looked at her with some worry in his eyes.

"If you don't mind, I'll take the next short distance?"

Kevin first looked at Tan Tai Hong with a questioning look, and when he saw Hong Hong nod, he shifted his gaze to Lin Yi on the side.

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, and after asking for Tan Tai Hong's opinion, he slowly released the hand that was supporting her.

"Brother Kevin, why do I feel like I haven't seen you for a long time?"

"More than ten days is indeed not a short time."

After Kevin took over from Lin Yi in supporting Tan Taihong, Tan Taihong also noticed that this brother was wearing the same clothes he wore when they first met at the airport.

When he squatted down, Tan Tai Hong glanced inside his clothes and did not see the listening device she had installed before, which was the same color as the lining.

That's right, so much time has passed. Even if Kevin didn't find it, the clothes have at least been washed, and the bug must have fallen off.

But it doesn't matter. She has already confirmed that this brother is on Sister Yi Yu's side, so there is no need to monitor his every move all the time.

While more than thirty people were marching back to the manor house, Emilo was not idle either.

Only after he spoke to the people in the main house through the in-ear wireless intercom did he feel completely relieved.

Just now, he sent a few people in advance to check the materials that Xu Yiyu temporarily stored in the manor warehouse, especially those supercars that originated from Yidali and looked very valuable. He emphasized them and gave a few more instructions.

He must not let down either the trust of the clan leader or Miss Xu.

After the large group of about thirty people returned to the manor owner's house, they took out the room keys that the housekeeper had given to each person, and returned to their own rooms as if they were familiar with the place and settled down.

"Yi Yu, go put your things away first and take a rest. We'll talk in the restaurant while we wait for you."

Huang Niao knew that everyone was very tired after spending more than ten days in the Al Mountains, so he raised his hand and pushed her towards the stairs. Without waiting for Xu Yiyu to refuse, he walked towards the restaurant of the manor with Kevin and Gu Qiu.

Kevin and Gu Qiu were not at all surprised by Huang Niao's behavior, and seemed to think that it was natural.

Xu Yiyu unconsciously tightened the brass key in his hand, a touch of emotion flashing across his eyes.

Since both new and old friends are so considerate, she will not be polite.
