722 Chapter 722 Before The Awakening Ceremony

Chapter 722 Before The Awakening Ceremony

Yun Zirou looked at Lu Yu and asked softly, Shouldn't we tell them?

Not for now. Let's wait until the awakening ceremony is over. Many people will be there the day after tomorrow, and we'll take action then.

Even if we tell them now, will they believe us 100%?

Lu Yu's words made Yun Zirou fall into deep thought.

I understand

An Heng and An Lan had been brainwashed for so long that they had taken everything for granted.

Awakening at eighteen, improving their abilities, getting better job opportunities, and a better environment.

The issue was that this was fake, and they wouldn't be on this path. Instead, they would be made into some kind of potion that could significantly increase someone else's strength.

You haven't eaten yet, right? I bought this for you.

An Lan said as she took out a bento box.

She looked up at Lu Yu and the others and said helplessly, Sorry, I don't have much to eat here.

Lu Yu shrugged. It's fine.

By the way, how much money have you saved after working here for so long?

I've worked here for six years and saved up 100,000. I'll leave this money to An Heng, and it should be enough for him to spend until he's 18.

An Lan didn't hide anything; she didn't think these people would be interested in her money.

Lu Yu looked at An Heng. He could tell he was thin, weak, and unsuitable for work and had to rely on his sister.

You must remember what your sister has done for you and repay her well in the future.

An Heng nodded repeatedly. Don't worry; I'll definitely do that!

Hearing this, An Lan finally smiled. She patted An Heng's head. When you're eighteen and complete your awakening, come out and look for me. I'll wait for you outside.

Don't worry, sis. I'll awaken a super talent for sure and come find you! An Heng immediately promised her.

Yun Zirou, who was standing at the side, shook her head helplessly. She sighed inwardly, knowing that the people here had been deceived miserably.

Let's go. We should go back.

Lu Yu said, then turned to leave.

Oh, right, I still have to thank you for helping my brother get out of trouble. Why don't I treat you to dinner tomorrow?

Lu Yu turned to look at An Lan and asked, It's so hard for you to earn that money. Are you willing to treat us?

Of course. After all, I'm earning this money for my brother, and you guys have helped him a lot.

Lu Yu nodded. Alright, we'll come and find you tomorrow.

Sure, we'll wait for you.

An Lan watched as Lu Yu and the others walked out and sighed in relief.

Sis, they are good people.

I don't think they're bad people too, but I don't know why they're here.

An Heng scratched his head. Sis, I don't know why they did it, but they did help me a lot.

By the way, Sis, after you awaken the day after tomorrow, are you going to leave me? Can't you stay here for a few more days?

An Lan sighed. No, according to their rules, I can't come back. I can only continue to work for them outside. They're not taking in refugees for charity but to benefit from us.

Even so, we should be glad we have at least something to work on

Sister, after you go out, you must tell my friends I miss them so much

They awakened early. I'm afraid I don't know where they're working now, but I'll do my best

At this moment, Lu Yu and the others had returned to the district's center and to their rooms.

When they reached their hotel, the sky was already pitch black. Lu Yu and the others went to bed immediately after they returned.

The next morning, after Lu Yu got up and washed up, he stood by the window and looked at the crowd below.

He saw the people go to work early, and they entered various factories to produce products for Goldenheart City.

The Red Heart Chamber of Commerce had practically treated them as slaves.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Come in.

The four of them walked in and sat by Lu Yu's bed.

Lu Yu, when are we going to do something? I think it's a waste of time.

Xu Yuan was losing his patience.

There's no rush. Tomorrow's awakening ceremony is the most important event of the year in this district. They'll definitely send their higher-ups here.

When the time comes, we'll kill them on the spot and publicize the truth.

That's not bad, but it's a bit of a waste of our time. Qin Yang scratched his head and continued, If it were me, I'd blow up Goldenheart City and solve the problem from the root!

Lu Yu shook his head. Can you really blow it up? Can you escape after such an explosion?

Qin Yang smiled awkwardly because he was joking. Even if he had enough explosives to blow up that place, he would be weakened to a frail state.

He would be done for when the Rred Heart Chamber of Commerce reinforcements arrived.

Lu Yu turned around and walked toward the door.

Let's go and see An Lan and An Heng.

Lu Yu took the lead and walked out of the hotel, following his memory toward An Lan's house.

Soon, they arrived at the residential area.

Lu Yu knocked on the door and asked, Is An Lan here?

The iron door opened, and An Lan appeared in front of him.

You're quite early.

Aren't you going to work today? Lu Yu asked.

I applied for leave.

Yun Zirou saw her gaze drift and asked, Don't tell me you just didn't go?

Hearing this, An Lan grimaced.

Yes, I didn't ask for leave because they won't approve it. I wanted to accompany my brother on my last day since it will be three years later when I see him again.

An Lan's expression was a little sad. She looked at An Heng, who was eating breakfast behind her, and sighed.

What an inhumane factory! How could they not approve such a leave? Yun Zirou said it angrily.

Is there any problem if you don't go today? Lu Yu asked.

No problem. Many people are working there. One more or one less, they won't notice.

Also, so what if I'm discovered? I'm leaving tomorrow anyway. If they want to find trouble with me, they won't be able to. An Lan shrugged nonchalantly.

Alright, what are you going to treat us to? Lu Yu asked.

There's a restaurant in the center of the district that specializes in barbecued meat. To save money, we usually only eat once a year. Let me take you there.

An Lan picked up her wallet and counted the money in it before leaving with An Heng.

After locking the door, she led the way.

It's not very far. We'll be there soon.

After walking along the street for a while, Lu Yu saw a well-decorated barbecue restaurant.

That's the restaurant. We'll eat one last time today, and it's also the last time I'll eat with An Heng. I'm sure I won't have the chance to come back here to eat.
