A car accident sent Su Qiao back in time to become the villainous second female lead in a retro-era novel. The good news is she hasn't committed any heinous acts yet, but the bad news is she...
Gu Hongli rarely showed such an expression.
But those blurry scenes continued to torment his mind.
He had a feeling that this time, he would get the result he wanted.
This was also within Su Qiao's expectations.
After preparing the ingredients for the next few days, Su Qiao and the others set off.
Gu Hongli found a guesthouse to stay in.
Su Qiao went back to her parents' house.
Mr. Su was naturally very happy. However, he looked behind the two of them and was somewhat disappointed not to see the twins.
Su Qiao pretended to be angry and said, "Now that you have a grandson, does that mean your daughter is just an adopted child?"
Mr. Su quickly explained, "I didn't. You will always be my and your mother's precious child."
Su Qiao snorted, considering it a closed chapter.
The two had just put their luggage down.
Su's father, wearing an apron and holding a green vegetable in his hand, was about to ask his daughter what she wanted to eat.
Then I saw that the two of them were already getting ready to leave.
"Didn't you just get back? Why are you going out again?"
Su Qiao, of course, couldn't say it directly.
“We’ve always been in a rush when we come here before, and we haven’t had time to explore properly. Today is a rare opportunity, so we plan to go out and have some fun.”
Although Su's father found it a bit strange, he did not stop them and waved for the two to leave.
Lu Xiangze suddenly turned around.
"Dad, don't bother cooking for us. It might take a while?"
Father Su nodded, took off his apron, and felt a little smug, relieved.
That should be enough for another meal.
Su Qiao and Lu Xiangze went out.
Su Qiao remembers that when she was a child, she went to a place where, after crossing a stream, she could see the mountains not far away.
There might be a place over there, and even if there isn't, she can create one.
Su Qiao followed her memory.
Sure enough, I saw the familiar willow trees, but the riverbank next to them had collapsed somewhat.
Perhaps because no one has been here for a long time, the bridges here are somewhat dilapidated.
The two walked over cautiously.
We entered the mountains.
The surrounding area was overgrown with weeds, making it almost impossible to see any path. Moreover, the weeds were extremely persistent, constantly tugging at their clothes.
After finally getting through this section, we were able to find a path up the mountain.
Before long, the two of them saw a dark shadow in the distance below a sloping hill.
It was partially blocked by weeds.
After a rough cleaning, a dark layer came out, followed by the smell of decay.
This appears to have been a place where grain was originally stored, but it's unclear how long ago that was.
The things inside have long since turned to dust.
Su Qiao easily cleaned up the contents of the room, putting in all the items bearing the Gu family emblem that she had dug out earlier.
Almost unable to put it down, Su Qiao even collected a little more soil from the cave.
I just managed to put my things down.
With it almost midnight, the two quickly finished their order and returned to the Su family home, where they ran into Gu Hongli, who was already asking for directions.
Thinking it was better to see this sooner rather than later, he said directly, "Mr. Gu, it's good that you're here too. I just searched through my memory and found it. Let's go over there quickly."
A look of surprise flashed across Gu Hongli's face.
Wow, that was fast!
So the group of people headed up the mountain in a grand procession.
It's not like we're eating right now; otherwise, many people would probably just follow along to join in the fun.
The group successfully followed the previous clues and found their way there.
Su Qiao only casually covered the entrance to the cave.
"We just dug it open and it's still the same as before. When I was a kid, I could just crawl inside, and they even sealed this side off. Luckily, the soil was pretty good, so it didn't collapse."
Gu Hongli nodded and directed several bodyguards to go and dig.
Soon, the first box appeared. The "Gu" emblem on it was particularly eye-catching.
The first box was opened, revealing some gold bars that gleamed brightly.
Immediately afterwards, the second and third boxes came out.
The items inside are either gold bars or antique silver coins.
Until the last box appears.
Gu Hongli finally saw the one he wanted most.
This box tells the story of the Gu family's past and where they came from.
What was the purpose of burying these treasures?
During the war, they hid this part and entrusted it to their loyal servants to guard.
The Gu family's belongings might scatter and fall, so these things were naturally hidden in various places.
The more Gu Hongli looked, the clearer the scene became in his mind...
The bodyguards were clearly well-trained.
I didn't look at things randomly or express any opinions; instead, I waited quietly.
To be honest, Su Qiao hadn't even looked at the contents of the box beforehand.
So now she's very curious about what's inside.
She only looked at a few boxes at the time and didn't see this one.
Gu Hongli quickly realized what was happening.
The expression on his face was also neatly arranged.
He turned around and looked at her gratefully.
"Thank you both. Please don't hesitate to ask if there's anything I can do for you in the future."
After taking the items back, Gu Hongli did not bring them back to Hong Kong.
Instead, they donated it.
Only the last box of things was kept.
It contains all of Gu Jia's past records.
Gu Hongli was the youngest among the Hong generation, and his name was already on the family genealogy at that time.
These things were later sealed away.
Gu Hongli is now the only remaining member of the Gu family's main branch.
The other branches had long since scattered and dispersed.
After dealing with these matters, Gu Hongli left temporarily.
Su Qiao and Lu Xiangze did not take the opportunity to make any demands.
In particular, Lu Xiangze did not take this opportunity to get Gu Hongli to invest in the factory.
Lu Xiangze thought that his wife had found and stored all these things by herself.
He has no reason to make any demands based on this...
After the two returned to J City, Su's mother had already become close with the restaurant's employees.
And business is booming.
Seeing that the restaurant was doing so well, Su's mother was very satisfied.
With this, the couple's life will definitely be much better from now on.
Upon seeing Su Qiao and the other person return.
Su's mother immediately inquired about Su's father's situation and showered Su Qiao with a bowl of dog food (a Chinese slang term for public displays of affection).
Su Qiao answered honestly, and her mother left satisfied.
Su Qiao and Lu Xiangze exchanged a glance, both of them looking helpless.
I was originally planning to go and pick up my child from the hospital.
Su's mother had been taking care of Su Ming's children for some time and hadn't been out much.
It's been a long time since I've seen Xiao Huai and the others.
I also want to see the two of them.
Su Qiao had no choice but to agree.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw two adorable little girls standing there.
She bent down and straightened the clothes for the two children.
"How come you're home so soon?"
She hadn't even gone to pick her up yet, so why was she back already?
Have Xiao Huai and the others forgotten what she said last time?
"Xiao Huai, Xiao Xia, be careful, don't run so fast." A figure appeared, it was Lu Haoyun.
He turned around to grab something, and the two children disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Even though he knew the child was being watched, he was still startled.
Fortunately, he knew the restaurant's address.
They came looking for us right away.
