Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 133 This is too much cannon fodder, isn't it?
Everyone at the table was startled and quickly resumed their previous conversation.

Du Anrao glanced at the restaurant, which had become noisy again, blinked, lowered his head and took a bite of the chicken leg that his older brother had fed him, his face showing deep thought.

No, saving lives is urgent! I need to find a way to lure my great-uncle over there so he can bring Miss Qin out for treatment. While I'm at it, I can also teach Miss Qin a lesson for her unfilial descendants and vent my anger! But how should I do that?

Du Desheng's eyelids twitched, but he thought to himself, "It's alright, little guy, just say whatever you want. No matter what you say, your great-uncle will believe you!"

【Yes! 】

"Grandpa, what are your sightseeing plans for this trip to S City?"

Du Desheng suppressed his excitement and said with a faint smile, "No, no, I just thought I should travel around while my legs are still nimble. In a few years, when I get older and can't walk anymore, I'm afraid I'll just have to stay at home and wait to die."

Du Anrao's eyes brightened slightly: "Grandpa, what are you saying? What's that saying on the internet these days? At your age, it's the perfect time to take risks! But since you don't have a destination in mind, would you like to come with me to City C?"

"City C? What are you going to City C for all of a sudden?" It was Du's mother who asked the question. Her child had just been reunited with her and was already thinking of running around everywhere. As a mother, she had to ask a few more questions.

Du Anrao, as expected, had no doubts and chuckled, "A friend of mine told me that there's a place in City C that's famous for its hot springs. I've never been to a hot spring before. City C is right next door, not far away, so I thought I'd go check it out."

Qiao Yiting, unaware of the inside story, recalled what Du Desheng's attending physician had said not long ago when she heard Du Anrao say this, and unconsciously gave him a helping hand: "Dr. Xiao said a few days ago that your legs are prone to coldness in winter. If you can soak in hot springs more often to clear your meridians, it may make you feel much better."

Du Desheng's left leg was fractured when he was working hard in his early years. Due to the poor conditions at the time, treatment was delayed. Even after his life improved and he hired many famous doctors to take good care of him, the rainy season and cold winter were still very difficult to endure.

Listening to their conversation, Du Anrao felt that even God was helping Miss Qin.

[Isn't this the opportunity? If I remember correctly, Miss Qin should be in a small village in City C, famous for its hot springs.]

Because Qiao Yiting's boyfriend was out with friends at a hot spring when he happened to meet a younger member of the Qin family who was assigned to keep an eye on Miss Qin. The group of people, being of similar tastes, quickly became friends.

In addition, that branch of the family was also someone who couldn't keep his mouth shut. In just a few words, he clearly explained why he was staying in this remote and impoverished place.

The scumbag boyfriend didn't pay attention at first, until the other person laughed at the old woman he was looking after who was treating a dusty wooden hairpin like a treasure. Then he suddenly realized it was on Miss Qin's head, and that's when he luckily discovered this big secret.

Du Desheng was deeply shaken and wished he could immediately send someone to find out where there were hot springs in City C, and then go there one by one.

But he also knew that even if he had someone investigate, the person in front of him would probably be faster at calculating.

Although they had only spent a few hours together, in that short time, this older brother, who prided himself on his sharp eye for people, understood why those members of the Du family who had been called out for questioning one by one a few days ago because of Du Bixiao's report, had all tried to help her cover up the truth when questioned, even though they had only met Du Anrao once.

Even when they finally had to speak out, they still defended Du Anrao when she was mentioned, fearing that they might harm her because of Du Anrao's extraordinary abilities.

She is the treasure and lucky star of their entire family; good things will come knocking on their door as long as they get close to her.

Who wouldn't love such a treasure?
"So, it seems I'll have to go with Xiao An'an." Du Anrao was overjoyed. "Alright, I'll ask my friend for the exact address and what we need to bring. If all goes well, we'll leave tomorrow?"

"Okay, you can arrange it."

"Mmm." The problem that had been bothering him was solved so easily. Du Anrao smiled and ate a few more mouthfuls of rice.

[Great! I'll check Miss Qin's exact location in a bit. As long as I can get to that area, I'm sure I'll be able to spot which house she's in at a glance!]

Upon hearing this, Du Desheng couldn't help but take a deep breath. Although he was still very worried about his lover's health, the joy of reuniting with his lover and the excitement of his long-cherished wish being fulfilled made him eat half a bowl more rice than usual.

Du Anrao ate the meal somewhat absentmindedly, and it wasn't until the dishes were almost cleared away that he looked up and saw his parents, and then he vaguely remembered that he had forgotten something.

Speaking of which, did my great-uncle ever have any special interactions with our family? If so, there's no reason why the book wouldn't mention it at all, right?

Thinking this through, Du Anrao decided to flip through the book again to confirm.

And it turned out that she actually found it.

Oh my, there really is!

The Du family members immediately perked up their ears. What was going on with their family? Tell us quickly!

[Later in the story, a mysterious and powerful figure who collaborates with Butler Du is a sworn enemy and competitor. He accidentally learns that Miss Qin was tortured to death by her unfilial descendants and plans to use this as leverage to deliver a fatal blow to his rival.]

In the eyes of this popular competitor, the Du family members were merely an insignificant background figure. His exact words were: "Besides our own people, the only other person who knows about this is a branch in the next city. But it doesn't matter. Our subordinates have already taken care of it and will make sure they keep their mouths shut forever and never speak ill of us to the old man or ruin our plans."

[…Isn't this just too much cannon fodder?]

The Du family members: "..." No, the disaster they suffered was truly a case of the underworld fighting and the little devils suffering.

Moreover, being so unlucky as to not even have a complete name, I suddenly understand how my youngest daughter felt when she first came back and suddenly learned that she was the only real victim in the marriage swap incident.

Happiness belongs to you main characters, while we cannon fodder have nothing. Only our injured family has achieved a world!
Seemingly still not satisfied with the stimulation, Du Anrao pulled out the book from his cousin Du Lianshuang's house.

Then Mr. and Mrs. Du discovered that they actually had multiple roles, just like their unlucky second son, appearing in different books, and all of them were cannon fodder!
In the book by Cui Jueyan and his son, Du's parents are portrayed as the unreasonable backers of Du Lianshuang, the vicious first wife who destroyed another family. They helped Du Lianshuang commit evil deeds, were greedy for money, and looked down on people. In the end, they were framed by Cui Jueyan and sent to prison, where they died in just a few days.

Du Anrao recalled Cui Jueyan's resume and didn't think he had the ability to ruin Du's parents. He thought it was probably just the protagonist's halo at work. It just so happened that the competitor's subordinates attacked their family, which allowed him to take advantage of the situation!
