At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins? Chapter 497 - 466: Unending Trouble
"Even if you’re a foreigner, on Cansoto boss’s turf, you can’t possibly protect Ez and his family! I said it!"
With a bruised and swollen face, Peron and his lackeys didn’t forget to throw threats at Gu Yu before they fled in embarrassnt.
Gu Yu was speechless; indeed, the act of declaring one’s background after a beating seed universal.
But right now, he didn’t care about whom Peron was talking about, or who this Cansoto character was. Facing the situation head-on and attending to the most pressing issue was what mattered most.
Ez and his sister couldn’t just lose their parents like this.
Gu Yu never considered himself to be saintly, but he did believe he shouldn’t lack the kindness inherent to Huaxia people. If he hadn’t encountered the situation, he definitely wouldn’t have gotten involved.
But now that he had seen it, he absolutely could not turn a blind eye.
Moreover, he ca here to help these people in the first place.
"Ez, pack up your belongings, you might not be able to co ho for a while."
With this in mind, Gu Yu turned his head and shouted to Ez.
Because of the recent fight, Ez was gasping for air while leaning against the wall, his eyes filled with redness due to excessive excitent.
In the fight, he had shown bravery that didn’t match his physique at all.
They say teenagers are the most hot-blooded.
Gu Yu sensed that in his actions.
"Will we be away for a long ti?" Ez took a deep breath, trying to steady his heavy breathing, and looked at Gu Yu with a puzzled expression.
Even though he had only recently t this Huaxia person and didn’t even know his na, his intuition told him that he should trust him unconditionally now.
Perhaps it was because the man had stepped forward to fight for his family, and the recent remark that he would provide shelter for them.
His sister Elena ca over with a gray rag to wipe the blood off her brother’s arm, her eyes curiously darting towards Gu Yu.
Even though they had different ethnic backgrounds and aesthetic standards, the appearance of this Huaxia man still fit her idea of attractiveness.
Gu Yu nodded: "I don’t know, but it’s definitely not sothing that can be resolved in a day or two."
He casually surveyed the living room, ravaged by the earlier scuffle, and tried to reinstall the broken door fra with his hand. However, he was unsuccessful, only managing to cause more plaster to crumble.
Seeing the plaster in his hair, Elena hurriedly brought over another clean towel for Gu Yu.
Gu Yu glanced at the little girl with a red nose and cheeks from crying too long and didn’t take the towel from her hand.
It wasn’t that he disdained the towel the little girl offered, but he was concerned about contact infection.
With two dengue fever patients in the house, although there had been no reports of the virus spreading through human contact in the refugee camp, being cautious was surely the right approach.
Rejected by Gu Yu, Elena looked a bit dejected, but her attention quickly returned to her parents.
"Ez... Elena... Are you okay? What just happened?"
A weak woman’s voice ca from the bedroom.
Elena hurried into the bedroom while Ez, afraid that his parents would see his injured arm, didn’t dare enter.
"I’m fine, Mom, there were just so people outside repairing the house," he replied casually at the door.
When Ez ntioned house repairs, Gu Yu looked up at the ceiling. The crude bungalow was already cracked in many places and looked like it could collapse at any mont.
It was extrely dangerous, a definite ruin.
But this was the only ho and the "shelter" for Ez’s family.
Observing Gu Yu inspecting his ho made Ez’s expression slightly embarrassed, as he had nothing to offer as hospitality.
The two stood silently for a while.
Just as Gu Yu was idly picking at his nails, a man’s voice suddenly ca from the walkie-talkie at his waist.
"Gu Yu calling, please respond if you hear this!"
Gu Yu quickly took the walkie-talkie and pressed the talk button: "Received, go ahead." Find your next read on .Côm
Walkie-talkie: "I need to reconfirm your current location."
Hearing the voice from the walkie-talkie, Gu Yu looked at Ez: "What’s our current address?"
Ez didn’t understand what was said over the walkie-talkie, but he understood Gu Yu’s question.
"West District Central Alley, resettlent site number 67."
Gu Yu nodded and repeated the address Ez provided into the walkie-talkie in Huaxia language.

"Alright, be there soon."
The call ended, clean and crisp.
"Will soone co to pick us up?" Ez walked to the door and looked outside, where curious neighbors hid behind their doors or windows, watching them.
"Yes." Gu Yu gazed at the end of the road, his observations more ticulous than Ez’s.
Not far away, under the half-collapsed wall of a bungalow, a group of addicts were openly engaging in shady dealings.
So burly n were bullying a few frail young n...
Others huddled in the narrow alleys, peddling cigarettes of unknown origin, while a scantily-clad woman with a curvy figure leaned against the wall, smoking and waiting for custors to show up.
There were all sorts of people, but what he was concerned about wasn’t them.
It was the five people gathered in an abandoned park about a hundred ters away that caught his attention. One of them, he could tell by his clothes, was one of Peron’s n.
The five of them were huddled together, seemingly distributing weapons.
Mostly sticks and long knives; Gu Yu couldn’t see any firearms, perhaps there were so, or perhaps not.
But this was enough to give him a headache, he hadn’t expected this group to make a coback so quickly.
As Gu Yu was considering how to deal with these n, they seed to have discussed their roles and, carrying sticks and long knives, started walking toward his direction. From a distance, it was clear they were up to no good.
"It’s Peron’s n, including Cansoto’s top enforcer. They’ve found us," Gu Yu remarked.
Ez also saw this and imdiately tensed up.
The recent fight with Peron’s n had been without weapons, but this ti the enemy was well-prepared and in greater numbers.
"Protect your sister."
Seeing Ez’s still bleeding left arm, Gu Yu simply gave a calm order and then picked up a nearby mop handle to confront the five n.
Ez couldn’t believe that Gu Yu was not only not hiding but actually took the initiative to fight. He was stunned.
It wasn’t until Gu Yu had walked nearly five ters that Ez finally reacted and chased after him.
"They have iron rods, knives; we can’t beat them," Ez tried to stop Gu Yu, but he didn’t listen.
Gu Yu himself didn’t know if he could take on five ard n, but since they had co for him, he had no choice but to tough it out.
"That’s him, the arrogant Huaxia man! Let’s go, chop off his hand!"
The lackey, whose face was still swollen from the beating by Gu Yu, called out as he saw him approaching.
"A foreigner? Swan, you didn’t tell us the man we were about to teach a lesson was a Huaxia person," said the tallest and most muscular of the five, towering at 2.1 ters tall, his body covered in muscle and tattoos.
He was Cansoto’s top enforcer, with more kill counts than he could count on both hands.
But he was still sowhat reluctant to pick a fight with a foreigner.
"Biqi, it’s this man who just ambushed Boss Peron. Our boss said if you can chop off one hand of this Huaxia person, he’ll give you twenty units of happy powder," Swan quickly ntioned the incentive to persuade Biqi.
"Heh, I want forty," Biqi chuckled and casually doubled the amount.
Swan shut up; it wasn’t his decision to make.
"No problem, I promise you," Peron, appearing behind the five n with various plasters on his body, which was clearly from the wounds he just treated, agreed readily.
"Deal!"
Biqi glanced at the injured Peron with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
As Cansoto’s mightiest war dog, no one could command him except for Cansoto himself, unless the price was right.
Having secured the promise he wanted, Biqi wasted no more words, raising his steel knife and charging towards Gu Yu.
Gu Yu’s eyes narrowed as he also lifted his mop handle, ready for a head-on collision.
Just as the two n were less than ten ters apart and could see each other’s faces...
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Three gunshots made Biqi stop in his tracks.
