In her past life, her family was destroyed and she died tragiously on the open sea.
Reborn in a new life, what bad intentions could Shangguan Wu possibly have? She simply wants to take reveng...
Just then, Gu Shiyi's voice rang out with a knock on the door: "Fourth Young Master, the wine is here."
Gu Yunzhen lowered her eyes.
"Come in."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Shiyi pushed open the door and entered, carrying a treasured bottle of red wine in one hand and a tray with three wine glasses on it in the other.
Gu Shiyi first placed the tray on the dining table, then opened the wine bottle and poured one-third of the wine into each wine glass.
After doing all this, Gu Shiyi left the private room.
Shangguan Wu smiled and said, "Wouldn't you say that Shiyi is both elegant in public and capable in the kitchen?"
They can fight and do odd jobs.
Gu Yunzhen said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Isn't this the most basic thing?"
Shangguan Wu said to him, "Your standards are too high."
Gu Yunzhen said in a low voice, "High requirements, high rewards. There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world."
Shangguan Wu stuck out his tongue at him.
Gong Wujue, sitting opposite them, watched their natural and intimate conversation with envy, but there was nothing he could do. He drank the red wine in his glass in one gulp, poured himself another glass, and slowly calmed down.
The meal lasted for more than an hour, and finally it was time to say goodbye.
As soon as they stepped out of the private room, Gu Yunzhen patted Shangguan Wu's head and said, "Madam, I'm going to the restroom."
As he left, he glanced at Gu Shiyi and Du Wei.
Gu Shiyi and Du Wei exchanged a glance, then stepped out ten meters away, one on each side, and stood guard at opposite ends of the corridor.
Shangguan Wu was slightly taken aback.
A hint of surprise flashed in Gong Wujue's eyes, but he still accepted the favor.
He and his junior sister had been separated for many years, and there were some things he couldn't let a third person know, so he didn't say some things in the private room just now.
Gong Wujue walked back to the private room, stood at the door, and looked at Shangguan Wu outside: "Junior Sister, have you gone back?"
Shangguan Wu was surprised for a moment, but quickly realized that he didn't want to be caught on camera in the corridor.
When he said "go back," he meant go back to Hakugakure.
Shangguan Wu shook his head: "No. People who come out can't go back."
It wasn't that she wanted to hide it from him, but that was the rule of Hakuin Village: those who left could not return. At least, no one else was an exception. During her years in the village, she had never seen any of the younger generation return.
But when she left Hakugakure, the village chief told her that if she was unhappy outside, she should come back to live there.
This is because her master was a miracle doctor who had helped everyone in the village. When her master passed away, he asked them to take care of her, which is why she remembered the way back.
Gong Wujue lowered his voice and said, "If you can go back, please tell the village chief that my leader wants to see him."
He seemed certain that she would return.
Shangguan Wu was utterly shocked.
Gong Wujue gazed at her face with lingering affection: "This time we part, I don't know when we'll meet again, but the number I gave you will never change. If you need to contact me, you can do so anytime."
Before she could speak, he said reluctantly, "Goodbye, junior sister."
As he walked out of the private room, his eyes remained fixed on her.
Shangguan Wu stared blankly at him, then walked out of the private room, watching his departing figure: "Goodbye, Senior Brother."
Soon, Gong Wujue stepped into the elevator.
Gu Yunzhen had returned to her side at some point.
"You're reluctant to part with it?"
Hearing this, Shangguan Wu snapped out of her daze and rolled her eyes at him: "If you're so stingy, then why did you leave on purpose?"
Gu Yunzhen's expression froze.
He subconsciously touched his nose, his tone revealing a hint of unease: "Let's go home."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yunzhen took her hand and led her towards the elevator.
Shangguan Wu's lips curled up in a wild smile.
On their way home, people across the country saw the press conference held by the Narcotics Division, learning that the police had successfully dismantled the largest drug lord's headquarters, breaking up five drug trafficking gangs and arresting more than 110 people.
This wonderful news brought tears of joy to so many people.
Several wealthy individuals on the Qingkong Forum were also celebrating by holding a lottery.
The biggest reward is 10,000 RMB.
This lucky user is Langyue Ruhuai.
Langyue Ruhuai opened a post to thank the generous patron. He also planned to use the 10,000 yuan to treat forum members to dinner on the eve of Chinese New Year's Eve at the Taibai Restaurant in Changteng City. Anyone who gave their forum ID could enter.
Yan Limu Liang Sheng: [Isn't this just a large-scale face-to-face meeting?]
Yalilu: [With so many people on this forum, I reckon the 10,000 yuan the original poster spent wouldn't even be enough to eat, hahaha]
"The guy who eats rice is a big shot: [Taibai Restaurant isn't cheap, let's all meet up and have some fun!]"
A girl who loves sweet romance novels: [Right now I should tag the tourist and the best mother-in-law in Huaguo. I really want to see them, mother and son, and that legendary rich and beautiful woman~]
The seventh day of the Lunar New Year at the end of summer: [@Visitor +1]
Yan Limu Liang Sheng: [@Visitor+]
Not only are these people tagging tourists, but even the original poster is tagging tourists.
Langyue Ruhuai: [@Visitor, bro, even though you banned me twice and suspended my account, I still really want to be your friend. You absolutely have to come on the 30th!]
Some users who hadn't read the visitor posts couldn't help but be curious.
After all, those who can ban and suspend accounts are bound to be veterans of the Qingkong Forum, or even members of the company's management.
People who read the post started to explain the facts.
That night, the Qingkong Forum was as lively as if it were Chinese New Year.
Gu Yunzhen, who was tagged, was unaware of the situation, but Ji Moyan, who was browsing the forum at home, knew!
When she saw her youngest son enter the door, she looked at him with an indescribable expression.
Gu Yunzhen raised an eyebrow.
"What's up?" he asked casually.
Ji Moyan opened her mouth, but when she saw her daughter-in-law beside him and thought of the post her youngest son had made on the forum, she was speechless. She swallowed back the words she was about to say and decided to cover up her son's identity first.
She asked casually, "Didn't you go see a movie after you ate?"
Gu Yunzhen: "..."
He hadn't even thought about it.
A hint of guilt flashed in Gu Yunzhen's deep eyes as he looked at Shangguan Wu and said in a low voice, "How about we go see a movie tomorrow night?"
Shangguan Wu blinked in surprise, shook her head and said, "No, I haven't finished writing my proposal yet."
Now that we've decided to open a pharmacy, we need to take action.
After a slight pause, Gu Yunzhen parted his thin lips and asked, "Do you need my help?"
Shangguan Wu's eyes lit up immediately, and she said excitedly, "Great! I really have a few questions I'd like to ask you. Let's go to the study!"
She pulled Gu Yunzhen along for a few steps, then turned back to look at Ji Moyan: "Mom, let's go upstairs first, you should go to sleep early."
"Go on, go on, goodnight."
Ji Moyan smiled and waved to her.
"good evening!"
Just as Shangguan Wu finished speaking, the elevator doors closed.
A short while later, Shangguan Wu stepped out of the elevator, went back to her bedroom to put down her bag, took her draft proposal, and went to the study.
Gu Yunzhen hung up the phone and looked at her helplessly: "So anxious?"
