In her past life, Gu Shuyan married the wrong man, leading to the destruction of her entire family. Now, reborn, Gu Shuyan vows to make the scumbag and the bitch pay with their blood. However, how ...
Chapter 386 Who is Ruier?
"Is Mingyu at the Yun residence?"
Gu Shuyan turned around and saw Pearl. Her first question was about Mingyu. When Pearl nodded, Gu Shuyan picked up the food in front of her and started eating.
Meanwhile, at the Yun residence, Mingyu and the others stood outside the door, their faces filled with worry.
"Miss Mingyu, please sit down for a while! Your constant pacing is giving me a headache."
Zhong Linyi, sitting on a pillar to the side, couldn't help but watch Mingyu pacing back and forth.
"Brother Zhong Lin, will Brother Xu be alright?"
The person has been inside for quite some time now, but the door is still tightly closed.
"What could possibly happen? If you don't trust my master, you should at least trust your young lady!"
Zhong Lin was speechless at Mingyu's behavior. How dare she doubt her master's abilities? Her master was not someone who could act easily, yet she was being so picky. She must be tired of living.
Seeing the displeasure on Zhong Lin's face, Mingyu finally had to stop, but she still couldn't sit still.
Inside the room, Yun Yichen was inserting acupuncture needles into Xu Feng's body. Beads of sweat were slowly forming on his forehead, but his hands remained still as he gently pressed the needles into Xu Feng's body.
Although Xu Feng's veins were not severed by the shock, his internal organs were extremely fragile. If the needle was inserted incorrectly by accident, Xu Feng would never wake up again.
Time passed second by second, and finally, after an hour, Yun Yichen finished his treatment.
The door was pushed open, and Mingyu was the first to rush in.
"Young Master Yun, how is Brother Xu?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Yichen did not answer Mingyu. Instead, he took the handkerchief Zhong Lin handed him, wiped his face, and then turned and left the courtyard.
Seeing this, Mingyu was about to chase after him to ask, but Zhong Lin grabbed her. "Grandma, what do you take my master for? If you dare to chase after him again, he'll kick you away."
Zhong Lin's words were not an exaggeration at all. At this moment, Yun Yichen's face was ugly. If anyone got close, he could definitely blast them away.
Yun Yichen was covered in sweat, and by the time he took a shower, it was already dark.
"Master, shall we still go to Wangyue Tower?"
The guard watched Yun Yichen walk out and couldn't help but ask.
"Um!"
Yun Yichen nodded lightly. He had already made an appointment with the little girl today, so naturally he would go.
Before leaving, Yun Yichen narrowed his eyes and said, "Take good care of that woman, and find a way to bring that man back. It's too easy to just let him go like that."
The guards didn't know what was wrong with their master all of a sudden, but given his tyrannical nature, what did it matter if he tormented two people for Miss Gu's sake?
After the guards left, Yun Yichen instructed them to take good care of Xu Feng before riding off to the bustling city.
After Gu Shuyan and the others had eaten and drunk their fill at Wangyue Tower, they did not linger. Instead, as agreed, they bought river lanterns and went to the riverbank.
"Big sister, do we really need to put so many? I see everyone else is only holding one."
Gu Yuhe looked at the river lantern she was holding and suddenly felt a little guilty. Especially since passersby were looking at it, she felt even more that she was acting strangely.
"Others are others. Didn't you say you were going to set off a lamp for everyone in your family? Why don't you want to set one off for them?"
"Of course not, I just felt embarrassed because everyone was looking at us."
Gu Shuyan couldn't help but laugh as she watched the two of them take turns saying things.
“Yuhe, we are different from others, so why should we care about other people’s opinions? Since it’s what we want to do, let’s do it according to our own wishes.”
Gu Shuyan believes that whether it's about being a person or doing things, if you care too much about other people's opinions, you will only end up restricting yourself.
"Big sister is right. We shouldn't care what others think. As long as we do what we want to do, we have no regrets."
Gu Yuxin echoed, and looking at the two's determined gazes, Gu Yuhe nodded as if she understood, yet also seemed not to.
"Let's go release some river lanterns."
As Gu Yuhe spoke, she took the lead and ran towards the river. Gu Yuxin felt a pang of anxiety when she saw her stumbling and hurriedly chased after her.
The three of them soon arrived at the riverbank. By this time, many river lanterns were already floating in the middle of the river. After finding a spot to squat down, Gu Yuhe slowly lit the first river lantern.
"I hope that when I grow up, I will be as smart and talented as my older sister, thanks to this first river lantern."
As Gu Yuhe spoke, she slowly placed the river lantern into the river and, imitating others, gently stirred the water. The lantern then drifted slowly into the distance along with the shimmering waves.
"Big sister, it's gone, the river lantern has floated away. Yuxin, look, it's gone."
Gu Yuhe chattered excitedly, and her excited appearance made the two of them happy as well.
After the river lanterns had disappeared from sight, Gu Yuhe squatted down and lit a second one. "This second river lantern is a wish for Grandma to be healthy and happy every day."
Watching Gu Yuhe send the river lantern away again, Gu Shuyan slowly squatted down.
With the first river lantern, Gu Shuyan naturally prayed for her family's safety and well-being.
The second lamp represents her hope that she can avenge her past life as soon as possible and live a peaceful life with Yun Yichen.
As for the third point, Gu Shuyan stared blankly at the river lantern for a long while before finally curving her lips into a smile: "I hope my Rui'er is safe and well."
Gu Shuyan silently finished speaking these words in her heart, then slowly stood up and watched the three river lanterns drift away into the distance side by side.
"What is Shushu's third wish?"
Gu Shuyan was staring blankly at the river lanterns, completely unaware of when Yun Yichen had appeared beside her.
"I hope Rui'er can grow up safely and healthily."
Gu Shuyan blurted it out without realizing it, and by the time she realized it, Yun Yichen had already pulled her in front of him.
Who is Rui'er?
Yun Yichen's eyes were completely obscured in the pitch-black night, but the coldness emanating from him made Gu Shuyan shiver involuntarily.
Noticing Gu Shuyan's change, Yun Yichen slowly released her and asked in a gentler tone, "Shushu, who is Ruier?"
This question had lingered in Yun Yichen's mind a thousand times. Back when Gu Shuyan was setting up a memorial tablet at the temple, he had been wondering who this person named Gu Rui really was.
But after that, Gu Shuyan seemed to have forgotten about this person, so Yun Yichen gradually put the matter out of his mind.
Now that he has heard the name from Gu Shuyan's mouth, Yun Yichen, who had finally stopped having doubts, has once again gotten stuck in a rut.
"Brother Yun, let's go!"
Gu Shuyan's eyes flickered. Not wanting to answer Yun Yichen's question, she reached out to pull Yun Yichen, but Yun Yichen simply walked around her hand.
