Ye Tian's House (3) Sub Eng

As Gu Shen pondered, the first guard returned with the information he needed, "Young Master Gu, I have found the location of Ye Tian's residence. He lives in the outskirts of the city, in a small house with his sister," the guard reported.

Upon hearing the report from his guard, Gu Shen felt that it matched what he had in mind.

Gu Shen nodded, feeling satisfied with his guard's efficiency. "Good. We will go now," he said firmly. He rose from the hospital bed, though still feeling some pain from his injuries, his face remained calm as Gu Shen wanted to maintain his image in front of his guards.

Gu Shen walked out of the hospital confidently, followed by his two loyal guards. At the hospital entrance, a luxurious vehicle awaited them. The vehicle was an elegant black car with a modern design and advanced technology, emphasizing the high social status of the Gu Family.

As they approached, the car's door opened automatically, revealing a luxurious and comfortable interior. The seats in the car were upholstered in smooth cream-colored leather, with neat stitching and details that added an elegant touch. Inside the vehicle, there was also a small mahogany table with intricate carvings, along with various advanced amenities such as an entertainment system, individually adjustable air conditioning, and a minibar stocked with premium drinks.

In one corner of the car, there was a touchscreen display that could be used to control various vehicle features, from lighting to audio settings. There were also automatic curtains that could provide full privacy when needed. The interior was illuminated by soft LED lights that could be adjusted in color to suit the passengers' moods.

As Gu Shen entered the car with a calm demeanor, his heart was anything but calm. In his previous life, driving a luxury car was just a fantasy, but now it was a reality. Gu Shen found it difficult to explain how he felt at that moment.

As Gu Shen immersed himself in the sensation of comfort and luxury in the car, the guard seated in the front promptly closed the door and started the engine smoothly. The other guard sat in the front seat, ready to carry out Gu Shen's orders.

Gu Shen settled into the spacious back seat, gazing at the outside view through the large bulletproof glass window. The vehicle began to move, leaving the hospital behind with controlled and smooth speed, ensuring maximum comfort for Gu Shen.

As the car sped through the city streets, Gu Shen saw advanced buildings that were different from his previous life. Skyscrapers with futuristic designs and colorful neon lighting dominated the scenery. Along the streets, he observed automated cleaning robots moving about, taking care of the trash and maintaining cleanliness. Large holographic screens displayed dynamically changing advertisements, showcasing the level of technological advancement in this world.

"Truly a different world," Gu Shen thought to himself. "The technology here is far more advanced than anything I have ever seen in my previous life."

As the car continued on, the scenery began to change. They entered an area that appeared more rundown. The once magnificent and advanced buildings transformed into dilapidated houses with peeling paint and broken windows. The previously clean and organized streets were now littered with trash and large potholes. More people roamed the streets, their faces showing exhaustion and despair.

Gu Shen traced his memories and recalled that the city was divided into two parts: the inner city and the outer city. The inner city was reserved for the wealthy or powerful, while the outer city was home to the poor and powerless. The social divide was starkly evident here. From his recollection, Gu Shen also knew that the outer city was often plagued by mutated creatures.

As Gu Shen's car entered the impoverished neighborhood, the residents' attention turned towards the luxurious vehicle. They looked on with a mix of curiosity and envy, realizing that such a vehicle was a rare sight in their area. Some paused from their activities, observing the luxury car with keen interest.

The car eventually stopped in front of a dilapidated house. The house appeared decrepit, with cracked walls and a roof on the verge of collapsing. "This is it," Gu Shen thought to himself.

With a single hand gesture, Gu Shen instructed his guard to open the door. Stepping out of the car, he could feel the stares of the surrounding residents following him. He gazed at the rundown house in front of him, realizing that this was where Ye Tian and her sister lived.

A few meters away from where Gu Shen was standing, some villagers gathered and began whispering to each other. Their discussion grew more intense as they realized who had just arrived.

"What's going on? Why is there a luxury car here?" whispered an elderly man with a wrinkled face.

"I have no idea either," answered a middle-aged woman, her eyes widening. "But it seems like it's someone from a prominent family. Look at their bodyguards, they're in the distinctive uniforms of an influential family."

A youth in a worn-out jacket added, "Could it be that the Ye family has offended someone from a wealthy family? Look at how nervous the people around the car are."

As one man gazed at Gu Shen and felt a strange sense of familiarity, he suddenly realized, "That's Gu Shen," said a man in a low but firm voice. "Young Master Gu from the Gu Family. What is he doing here?"

The curious onlookers turned their attention back to Gu Shen, who appeared calm but under pressure. The people around began to speculate various things.

"The Ye family must have made a big mistake," whispered a young mother while holding her child's hand tightly. "They have no money, and now Young Master Gu is here. This won't end well."

"Maybe Ye Tian got involved in something serious," mumbled a man with a wide-brimmed hat. "He's always in trouble, but I never thought he would attract the Gu family's attention."

An elderly woman sitting on a nearby bench looked on with concern. "Poor children," she said softly. "They are already orphaned, their lives are very difficult. If they have offended a prominent family, I dread to think what will happen to them."

"Could it be that Ye Tian harmed someone from the Gu family?" asked a man in a shabby jacket.

"Definitely, this is not a friendly visit," replied the elderly man with a somber tone. "I just hope this doesn't end badly for Ye Tian and his sibling."

The locals grew increasingly worried, sensing an impending storm. Meanwhile, Gu Shen remained focused, unfazed by the whispers and curious glances around him.
