"Gu An!"
Lin Wan Yi called out.
Her voice wasn't loud, but it carried a sense of urgency.
She rushed over in a few steps and grabbed Gu An's small hand just as the enormous screwdriver was about to pry open the mahogany back cover.
"Click."
The tip of the screwdriver left a shallow white mark on the mahogany and stopped.
That was close.
If Commander Gu's prized possession, more important to him than life itself, had been taken apart, Gu Yanshen would probably give the kid a good spanking when he returned.
Gu An looked up.
He didn't show the slightest panic at being caught.
Nor did he feel any guilt.
His face, so much like Gu Yanshen's, was full of dissatisfaction at being interrupted.
He twisted around, hugging the screwdriver tightly to his chest, refusing to let go.
"This can't be taken apart."
Lin Wan Yi confiscated the cookie tin.
"Wah——!"
Gu An, who hadn't cried when chased by a dog earlier, began wailing at the top of his lungs.
Thunder without rain.
